Shennong Sequence

Chapter 166: Fallen Dragon Egg
While Liang Shanying was hesitating, he saw his friend Ma Wenchao looking at him. He glanced at him, his expression flustered, and he quickly said:

"Yes, that Mountain God Stone also contains a large amount of earth attribute rules, and it can also allow the user to improve the aptitude of the body... After we get that thing, if we meet the right princes and nobles, we will probably be able to get enough resources for one of us to cultivate to Sequence 6!"

When Ma Wenchao heard his friend say this, he cheered up and said:
“Brother Liang, even though the Mountain God Stone is only enough for one person to advance to Sequence 6, we have only been in this sacred mountain for a day. Let’s go, let’s quickly pry the Mountain God Stone off…”

"And that jade disk with seven-colored light flowing through it is probably a spiritual vein. When the time comes, we can cut off a piece of it and take it back. We can also bury it in the soil to improve our cultivation environment... It's really a great opportunity!"

"Then please go first, Brother Ma." As Liang Shanying said this modestly, his hands behind his back were so clenched that they were sweating.

But an accident happened at this tense moment. Ma Wenchao, who was always quick-witted, did not notice the subtle movement of his left hand, but he also learned to be humble from him.

Ma Wenchao humbly joked, "No, no, no, Brother Liang, you go first. Besides, you are very strong and have a protective treasure with you, so go into the cave first to explore the way... I will guard the entrance of the cave for you to prevent other people or monsters from breaking in.

Once we get Lingxiu, we can distribute it when we are about to leave the mountain."

……

Zhao Yun kept looking at the two Confucian scholars in front of him. They were making loud noises in the cave as if there was no one around.

Moreover, Zhao Yun discovered that the body of the ferocious beast that was originally hidden on the other side of the pile of earth and rocks moved slightly and then disappeared among the vast pile of earth and rocks...

Apparently, he was awakened by the noisy voices of the two Confucianists.

In addition, after the two Confucian scholars surnamed Ma and Liang had finished explaining the various conditions of the Mountain God Stone, when they were about to take it, they were very respectful and humble to each other... It was quite interesting to watch!
Besides, what Zhao Yun enjoyed watching was not just the mutual modesty between the two people.

It's about stabbing!

Before seeing the Mountain God Stone, the two men had acted very respectful, friendly and harmonious.

However, after seeing the Mountain God Stone, the two people, who had originally walked side by side at a safe distance, moved one or two meters apart from each other as they spoke respectfully.

Even Zhao Yun had a feeling that these two people were about to kill each other as they talked!
Moreover, the man named Liang who was closer to Zhao Yun, when he was talking, moved his hands slightly behind his back, and Zhao Yun saw that a jade pendant suddenly fell from his sleeves. He didn't know whether it was used for protection or for attack?
What a wonderful scene!

Such a scene is very consistent with Zhao Yun's current concealment and hiding, and his intention to get rid of the two people.

"After they fight among themselves, I will strike and kill them. That will be much better than me fighting two people alone."

However, while Zhao Yun was thinking about it, the ferocious beast on the other side suddenly showed abnormal conditions.

The ferocious beast that had just disappeared behind the pile of earth actually stretched its body forward.

The body, when erected, is a cylinder, so high that it almost touches the top of the cave.

Zhao Yun, who had been observing the condition of the ferocious beast, thought it was a giant snake at first, but then he looked again and found that something was wrong with the snake!
Although the snake's body is round, it appears flat when viewed from different angles, and the position of the snake's head also becomes flatter.

But the thing that stood upright was round all over, and the position of its head was not as flat as a snake's head...

Instead, there is a kind of converging circle!
"Why does this thing feel like an earthworm?"

"No, that's not right. There's mucus and scales all over that thing. It must be the earthworm that's beginning to evolve into a dragon... It's going from eating mud to a meat-eating monster! Run!"

The atmosphere between the two Confucianists changed from a state of bizarre infighting to a state of clamoring for escape in an instant!
Zhao Yun, reflecting the colorful light coming out of the spiritual vein jade disk, also saw the specific appearance of the ferocious beast: a 'fallen dragon' with dragon shape and dragon scales, but without dragon nature and dragon luck!
Afterwards, he continued to mobilize the thin power of heaven and earth that had accumulated during the short period of time in the earth vein illusion array, and continued to cover his body, making his breath more concealed!
This would prevent the obviously angry Falling Dragon from attacking the two Confucianists. If it happened to notice that he was lurking nearby, he would get attacked instead. That would be very unpleasant.

Then the two Confucianists, in shock, started running out of the cave...

However, as the two of them ran, they attracted the earthworm that had evolved into a falling dragon, which swam straight out of the cave.

In an instant, Zhao Yun was the only living person left in the entire cave!

Zhao Yun blinked. He was originally planning to use the earth vein fire formation to force the falling dragon earthworm out.

Now those two unlucky Confucianists have attracted the falling dragon away...

This is really clever!

Zhao Yun quickly stepped on the nodes of the earth vein illusion array and continued to approach the location of the spiritual vein.

When Zhao Yun passed by the place where the falling dragon had been before, he saw a flash of light under the mound!

Upon closer inspection, there were actually more than thirty spiritual eggs as big as watermelons, which were constantly drawing the vast spiritual energy from the spiritual vein nearby!

However, after thinking about it, Zhao Yun did not dare to touch the spiritual eggs of the fallen dragons directly.

Because, there is no guarantee that these spiritual eggs may have been restricted by the dragon that fell to the ground.

If Zhao Yun dares to touch it again, he might summon the angry falling dragon back in advance!
Therefore, it is better not to move now and quickly take down the top-level Lingxiu Mountain Divine Stone, which is the real business!

Zhao Yun used the power of the magic weapon Floating Cloud Robe to fly to the top-grade Lingxiu Mountain God Stone embedded in the trunk of the spirit vein, and used the flame gun to pry it open before taking it off.

And throw it directly into the door key space for storage!
As for what the two Confucianists had said before, that they wanted to cut off a section of the spiritual vein, take it back, bury it in the ground, and improve the environment for cultivation... Zhao Yun thought about his situation for a moment and gave up this plan.

Because there is a mountain god temple in Yan Gui Ling Mountain.

In the mountain temple, there is naturally a mountain god who monitors the situation in the entire mountain.

If you dare to destroy a section of someone's spiritual vein here, it will definitely affect the condition of the spiritual vein of the entire Yangui Lingshan Mountain.

When Zhao Yun goes to ask the mountain god for the top-level spiritual power, he might just give him a lower-quality one...

Therefore, it is better not to do such things that offend the mountain god.

In addition, the current environment of the entire world is in a state where the five aggregates of red dust are permeated and the spiritual inspiration of the world is fading.

Therefore, the many gods in the world either seal the mountains like the wild geese returning to the sacred mountains and hide in such blessed places; or like those who were deified after death, all enter the underworld and stay in the natural environment that suits them.

Therefore, there are basically very few gods in the world who come out to preach, gain faith, etc.

Of course, this decrease in inspiration is also a law of the world.

Just like the tides, the ebb and flow are all the laws of reincarnation that the world operates and adjusts itself. Now the spiritual energy is declining the most, so in the future, the tide will rise sharply.

It's not a matter of inspiration from heaven and earth or the drying up of heaven and earth.

Then Zhao Yun cancelled the clouds gathered around the Floating Cloud Robe, so that he was no longer in a flying state.

After all, when flying, clouds will gather and expose one's flaws.

So when Zhao Yun fell to the ground, he quickly stepped into the node of the earth vein illusion array, mobilizing the power of heaven and earth to continue hiding himself.

Then he walked towards the cave where the earth dragon had previously been lurking and looked at the more than thirty dragon eggs that had fallen to the ground in the nest.

Zhao Yun had originally planned to collect all the fallen dragon eggs and run away, but after thinking about it, he felt that this was not the right thing to do.

If he took all the fallen dragon eggs and ran away, the fallen dragon would surely go crazy without any worries, and would turn the cave upside down, and Zhao Yun himself would not be able to escape.

It would be better to pick a few stronger fallen dragon eggs and put them in my pocket, so that there are still some fallen dragon eggs left in this nest...

After the fallen dragon returned, although there were a few fewer eggs, most of the fallen dragon eggs were preserved. When it got angry, it would at least take the condition of the remaining spirit eggs into consideration.

Then, Zhao Yun selected five dragon eggs with strong vitality and different attributes, namely gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and put them into his bag.
He continued to run towards the edge of the area covered by the ground vein magic array.
And listening to some of the conditions in the cave,
The rumbling sound was clearly audible, but the specific situation could not be seen... It was really frustrating.

Then, when the sound in the cave passage stopped abruptly, Zhao Yun thought that the two Confucianists had run away with the falling dragon. He himself was also preparing to leave the coverage of the earth vein illusion array and was ready to take advantage of that gap to run away.

But then another rumbling sound was heard, and it was obvious that the dragon that fell to the ground had returned directly!

"Why did you come back? Those two Confucianists are just trash..."

While Zhao Yun cursed inwardly, he changed his escape plan and activated the earth-escaping talisman stuck on the armor of Po Lu!

However, just after he had penetrated about ten centimeters into the surrounding rock layer, Zhao Yun felt that he could not escape any further!

It's not that the rock layer can't escape.

Instead, it was the huge spiritual vein next to him and the fluctuation interference caused by the earth vein formation he had created that made Zhao Yun, due to his low level of magic power, unable to support the huge magic power required for the earth escape talisman to break through the fluctuation barrier caused by the spiritual vein and the earth vein formation.

This prevented Zhao Yun from escaping.

"What a fool!"

Also, Zhao Yun didn't dare to directly dismantle the earth vein illusion array, because the falling dragon had already returned!
In addition, Zhao Yun also saw some scars on the body of the dragon that fell to the ground, but the scars were healing rapidly.

Moreover, there were some traces of blood in the mouth of the fallen dragon. It was obvious that the two Confucianists might have both died, or maybe only one of them died... or maybe it was some other reason.

But there's no point dwelling on that.

At this moment, Zhao Yun was forced back to the deepest part of the cave by the falling dragon and could not escape.

Fortunately, Zhao Yun was covered by the earth vein magic array and was always in the dark.

The dragon that fell to the ground did not even notice Zhao Yun's existence.

As long as Zhao Yun doesn't make any noise and isn't discovered, he will be safe for the time being.

And when the falling dragon returned to his nest again, Zhao Yun could clearly see that the falling dragon's body suddenly became sluggish!

Apparently the Falling Dragon had discovered her eggs, and five of them were missing.

Moreover, when the fallen dragon looked up, it also saw that the mountain god stone that was originally embedded in the spirit vein had quietly disappeared without a trace...

Then the fallen dragon poked its head out and swam back and forth in the surrounding caves, as if trying to find some thief who had stolen the eggs and Lingxiu.

But in the end it found nothing and kept roaring in anger... but eventually it returned to the nest again to hatch the dragon eggs that fell to the ground.

Zhao Yun thought to himself, this is a close call!

Fortunately, he only took five eggs and did not take all the eggs of the falling dragon.

Otherwise, the already ferocious and brutal dragon that fell to the ground would have gone crazy under the double blow of the lost egg and Lingxiu... and might even have collapsed the entire cave.

In that case, Zhao Yun himself would not be able to escape.

"So, when facing these stupid beasts and monsters, it is still beneficial to leave some room for maneuver."

Afterwards, Zhao Yun continued to stay in the earth vein illusion array and waited for a long time.

This time, Zhao Yun would at least have to wait until the fallen dragon fell into deep sleep again before he dared to break away from the hidden protection of the earth vein magic array and run out of the cave.

Otherwise, he would be discovered by the fast-moving falling dragon before he could run two steps, and be chased to death in this cave like the two Confucianists before. That would be unpleasant.

However, the dragon that fell to the ground was finally missing its child and the spirit that condensed divinity. It became restless and had not fallen asleep yet.

Zhao Yun could only continue to wait quietly.

Fortunately, the earth vein illusion array has been completely formed, and it can rely on the flow of earth energy in the earth veins to maintain the long-term existence of the array.

There was no need for Zhao Yun to constantly mobilize his magic power, or take out spirit crystals to maintain the earth vein illusion array.

This is also one of the great benefits of the ground vein formation in the farming system: after it is successfully arranged, it can naturally gather the power of heaven and earth in the ground veins to maintain its own operation consumption.

And except for the situation where the landslides and earthquakes cause the collapse of the ground veins under the earth, the ground vein formation can basically exist for a long time with the heaven and earth!

In addition, because Zhao Yun had waited for a long time, he had no choice but to take out the lower-grade golden eggs he had obtained earlier and digest and absorb the inspiration of creation and the rhyme of heaven and earth contained in them.

Then, strands of magical power were generated in the Dantian.

And every time he gains ten strands of magic power, they will be combined into a complete magic power, continuously increasing Zhao Yun's permanent magic power limit!
