Chapter 317 The Residual Soul From Long Ago!

The female corpse lay quietly in the large jade box, with her hands on her lower abdomen, and a colorful bead flickered between her fingers.

Shen Lian searched the inside and outside of the female corpse, up and down, in the ear holes, nose holes, mouth... and other places, but he did not find the second five-element bright bead.

"I was greedy. The ancestors of the transformation of the gods robbed the fifth-level spiritual objects. I am very lucky to get one."

He gently tidied the skirt of the female corpse and then closed the jade box again.

Shen Lian did not have the ability to create a second clone at present, so he could only seal the female corpse for the time being.

Then, he began to check the remaining three fourth-level corpses.

The sea clan corpse was in the late fourth level, and the two demon clans were a little worse, but they were also close to the late fourth level.

This also shows that in order to survive in the black water, the physical body and realm must have a certain level.

There was nothing good about the sea clan and the thunder scale marten, so the attention fell on the pheasant and phoenix spirit crown bird.

The mother bird died at such a coincidence, she died while giving birth.

"Hey, no wonder the Cangqing tribe wanted to snatch it."

A black demon egg floated in front of him, and a very weak spiritual power emerged like a gossamer.

When the divine mind was immersed in it, there was a strange energy inside the eggshell that blocked the divine mind from further prying.

This energy was flowing, and the secondary soul tried several times in a row, but could not break through the flowing energy protection.

There were mountains of corpses and blood in the secret realm, and the corpse gas was endless, but there was still life, which was really amazing.

At this moment, Shen Lian's first reaction was not an opportunity, but horror.

This was too against the sky.

After a gloomy look, the secondary soul immediately recovered, and then showed a touch of joy, and weighed the bird egg in his hand.

The Pheasant Phoenix Spirit Crown Bird is a descendant of the Phoenix. It looks like a colorful pheasant, with a high red crown that is very handsome, and the feathers on the tail are shining.

Just take off these feathers on the tail, and add some fourth-level ores to refine a fourth-level medium-grade spiritual treasure.

...

After a short half day.

In another cave house thousands of miles away, the spiritual light is shining, and the prohibitions are like stars. It can be seen that the formation is heavy at a glance.

A black bird egg is suspended in the cave house, and spiritual light is constantly injected into the bird egg around it.

At this moment, the bird egg has fallen into the hands of Shen Lian himself.

"It still doesn't work. The spiritual energy is a little too weak."

He squinted at the black bird egg, looking a little regretful.

It's really strange. The energy that protects the vitality inside the bird egg does not prevent the spiritual energy from infiltrating, but prevents his prying.

After slashing it with a fourth-level spiritual treasure for many times, the bird egg still has no tendency to break, and the appearance seems to be petrified.

Shen Lian continued to crush the spirit stone to cover the bird egg, but after half a month, the vitality in the bird egg was still the same, neither increasing nor decreasing.

"Forget it, I'll give you this egg to eat. After all, it is the descendant of the fourth-level demon bird. Eating it may give you a chance to go further."

On the other side of the cave, Dahei and the other two guys looked at the suspended bird egg eagerly.

"Master, this is a zombie egg. It has been so long that it has turned into stone. How can it be cooked?"

Dahei shook his pliers, "I want to eat it roasted, or the master can help me roast it."

"Me too."

"Me too."

Shen Lian waved his hand and the bird egg flew back to his hand. He turned it over and over and looked at it a few times.

The black bird egg has faint lines on the surface, similar to the fingerprints on the fingertips of human cultivators. There are a few white spots on it, which are left after chopping.

"Since it can't be saved, I'll roast it for you to eat."

He summoned a large cauldron, threw the bird egg into it, and then blew a ball of fire to cover the cauldron.

"Master, put some chili, I want to eat spicy hairy eggs!"

"Can you put some sugar, I like sweet and spicy."

"Add some emerald coriander."

The last one to speak was Sanqian, and the moment he spoke, he was glared at by Dahei and Erwan.

Sanqian shook his tail and spit out a bubble.

"What are you looking at? When I become a fifth-level demon, I will catch you all and plant coriander."

"Erwan, beat it."

Shen Lian squinted his eyes and watched the three little heads fighting, but he always had a trace of attention on the cauldron.

The eggshell has amazing defense, and there is also flowing energy protection inside, but it is not really impossible to open it. It mainly depends on how much it costs.

Through his previous inspection, he found that the reason why this bird egg still has a trace of life is mainly thanks to the female pheasant.

After the egg was embedded in the mother pheasant, the energy of the demon baby in the body just wrapped the egg, protecting it from subsequent impact.

If it was in other places, Shen Lian would not be so suspicious, but in a place where resentful Yin corpses were rampant, he had to be more cautious.

He wanted to throw it away, but thinking that this bird egg was brought out by the secondary soul, he felt that there would still be some hidden dangers if he threw it away.

What if this immortal life popped up again and became a big devil to cause trouble, would he share half of the karma with the secondary soul?

"Master, when will it be cooked."

Sanqian, who was beaten up by the two brothers, didn't care at all, and looked at the big cauldron eagerly.

After burning in the big cauldron for more than half a month, the bird egg was still like stone, and there was no fragrance at all.

"Just wait a little longer. Even the fourth-level spiritual treasure can't be split. I think it will take at least ten or eight years to burn it. It's never too late for a good egg."

Erwan worked hard and spit out another mouthful of flames towards the cauldron.

However, Shen Lian sensed the changes in the bird's egg. Although the fluctuations were very slight, they could not be concealed from his perception.

"Fellow human Taoist, did you save me?"

Finally, a ball of black light floated on the bird's egg in the cauldron, forming the appearance of a pheasant, phoenix, and spirit-crested bird.

The black light derived from this bird was as thin as blue smoke, and it crawled down towards Shen Lian outside the cauldron.

"Please extinguish the spiritual fire."

"Master, it's alive." Dahei was shocked.

"Female or male?" Erwan was more concerned about Pheasant's gender.

…

The spiritual fire that enveloped the cauldron was extinguished, and the black bird eggs flew out, and the phantom of the pheasant and phoenix derived from them became a little clearer.

"Feng Qing thanks the Human Race for your life-saving grace."

Feng Qing pouted her long tail wings and saluted Shen Lian.

"No need to be polite."

Shen Lian looked at the illusory pheasant and phoenix. High-level demon clans have blood inheritance, so they can increase their experience in cultivation and birth.

But it is rare for a bird egg that has not yet hatched to have such abilities.

In other words, the spiritual thought that appears now is probably not the spirituality of the egg itself, but... the mother bird.

Although Shen Lian said it lightly, Zhi Qing still knelt down three times in a row and said with excitement: "I thought I would never see the light of day again, but I didn't expect to meet you to rescue me. I am willing to work hard in the future."

Shen Lian raised his eyebrows. This cultivator was very self-aware and did not hesitate at all when it was time to kneel.

"Fellow Taoist, you didn't ask who I am or what I do, so you made a decision?"

"There is no way to repay the kindness of saving a life. If you follow your fellow Taoist on horseback, you will naturally know which immortal sect your fellow Taoist comes from."

Although Zhi Qing transformed into a bird, the look in his eyes looked very genuine.

After a while, its breath became somewhat low.

"Fellow Taoist, is my hometown gone long ago?"

Shen Lian nodded, "It was only by chance that I brought fellow Taoist out of a filthy place."

"Fellow Taoist, can you tell me the origin of Taoist Taoist? Shen Lian looked at the pheasant green shadow, looking like he was digging into the problem.

Although Pheasant Green emerged from the eggshell, the defense on the eggshell did not weaken at all.

Zhi Qing seemed to be standing still, but he could still feel it. He sensed that the spiritual prisons in the surrounding cave were twinkling like stars, and the lightning above his head was moving like a dragon, so he lowered his head.

After letting out a long sigh, Youyou spoke.

"I was..."

…

Zhi Qing spoke nonchalantly, and after holding a stick of incense, he finished telling his story.

According to what it said, it was originally one of the sect-protecting spirit beasts of the Ruifu Sect in the Tiannan Immortal Realm, and it was almost on the verge of advancing to the late fourth level during its lifetime.

But as luck would have it, the Immortal War broke out in the world of immortals at that time and affected the Ruifushi Sect. Under the crisis, it had to drag its body that was about to give birth to a child to fight.

However, due to the weakened strength of the fetus he was carrying, he was severely injured by the hostile monks who seized the opportunity. When he returned to the sect in a panic, he was hit by the hostile monks again, causing the fetus in his belly to lose its vitality, and he almost collapsed.

As a last resort, it used a secret method to separate a ray of soul into the fetus, preparing to use it to regain life.

But I don't know what happened next. After being awakened, Shen Lian appeared in front of him.

In order to prove that what he said was true, Zhi Qing copied the secret technique "Bloodline Soul Seizing Technique" that he had practiced on the spot.

"It's a pity that it can only be between people of the same blood, or from the demon clan."

After Shen Lian checked the secret method in the jade slip, he sighed.

"Fellow Taoist, I have several spiritual beasts. It can be regarded as a meeting gift for the juniors."

Zhi Qing looked at the three little black beasts in the cave nearby, and let out a wave of goodwill.

"Compared with the life-saving grace of fellow Taoist, a mere secret method is nothing."

…

"Fellow Taoist, are you really willing to worship me as your master?"

After Shen Lian threw the secret jade slip to Dahei, he looked at Zhi Qing again and asked with a half-smile.

"There is no way to repay the kindness of saving my life. I can only accompany him with my body."

When he said this, Zhi Qing looked at the shimmering spirit taboos in the surrounding caves intentionally or unintentionally, and sighed slightly.

"But I hope fellow Taoists can find one or two elixirs to repair the soul. My soul is extremely weak now. If there is no external elixir to repair it, I'm afraid it won't last long."

As he spoke, the phantom transformed by Pheasant Qing began to tremble violently, as if it was about to collapse like a gossamer.

"If fellow Taoist can't trust me, I will sign a contract with fellow Taoist immediately after I have stabilized my soul a little, and I will follow you around."
