Chapter 123 Earth Flame
There were a total of four eggs . They reached around Long Chen’s shoulders and there were even a couple bloodstains on them . These were definitely the strongest eggs Long Chen had ever seen .
Observing those bloodstains, Long Chen reached out his hand and touched them . A faint fishy smell came from them . The blood had yet to dry .
Long Chen’s heart jumped wildly . Obviously the Flame Salamander had only just given birth and had been in its weakest state . Perhaps its fighting strength had not been even half of what it was during its peak state . Thinking of that, cold sweat ran down his back .
He had truly underestimated the terror of third rank Magical Beasts . When Magical Beasts reached the third rank, they would completely transform . They would be able to use their own inherited skills, giving them even greater combat abilities .
Just thinking about it gave him some lingering fear . If the Flame Salamander hadn’t been in its weakest state, perhaps he really wouldn’t have even been able to run from this place .
“Wu, wu!”
Just as Long Chen was pondering over this, Little Snow had already begun biting into the eggs . But the eggs were too big, and with Little Snow’s teeth, he was unable to use any real force .
“Hehe, since you didn’t get to eat any of the flesh, eating some eggs can make it up a bit . ” Long Chen smiled slightly and used his fist to smash the egg . That huge egg shook and cracks appeared on its sh.e.l.l .
Although the eggs were as hard as iron, they were extremely brittle . As soon as he Long Chen opened a nick on it, liquid started to flow out .
Little Snow hastily stuck his mouth on the egg and wildly sucked . In just a moment, he completely sucked away all the liquid within the egg .
Long Chen was startled to notice that Little Snow’s aura was growing increasingly stronger as he drank that liquid . There were even signs Little Snow was about to advance .
He quickly opened a second egg for Little Snow without the slightest heartache .
These eggs were of a third rank Magical Beast . That was a treasure that Pill Masters would go crazy for .
But since Long Chen had already obtained the Neidan, he didn’t bother with that too much . What he hoped was for Little Snow to quickly increase his speed . He would be willing to give up anything for Little Snow .
Seeing Little Snow quickly suck away the liquid, Long Chen directly split open the remaining two eggs . The result was that Little Snow truly didn’t disappoint Long Chen .
Little Snow completely sucked all four eggs empty . He then immediately lay down and closed his eyes . His energy was beginning to crazily surge, becoming increasingly unstable .
“Is he about to advance?”
Long Chen couldn’t help celebrating . Little Snow was a third rank Magical Beast and his bloodline was especially pure . Later the Spirit world’s mysterious expert had awakened his spirit, causing his cultivation speed to skyrocket .
Those four eggs contained an extremely great amount of energy . Now that Little Snow had absorbed all the energy within these four Flame Salamander eggs, the energy began to wildly surge within his body .
Little Snow instinctively entered a cultivation state and frantically absorbed that enormous energy . His aura was becoming increasingly powerful, and s.p.a.ce warped slightly around him .
Long Chen nodded . If Little Snow could advance to the third rank, his combat ability would definitely surpa.s.s the Flame Salamander even in its peak state .
At that time, Long Chen would have a third rank Magical Beast as his steed . Furthermore, the Scarlet Flame Snow Wolf was at the peak of all third rank Magical beasts . Just thinking about that made him excited .
Long Chen knew that Magical Beasts required some time in order to advance ranks . All he could do was help protect Little Snow . However, this place was the Flame Salamander’s territory, and so other Magical Beasts wouldn’t barge in randomly .
Only now did Long Chen carefully examine the rest of the cave . From the inside, the s.p.a.cious cave had a large, caved roof .
Thinking back to how it looked from outside, the roof should correspond to the hill outside . It looked similar to an iron pot .
As Long Chen examined this s.p.a.cious s.p.a.ce, he saw a large pool of lava . Walking up to the lava, he saw that the lava was rolling over and over .
“Oh, there’s actually something good inside the lava!” Who would have thought that this unremarkable desert would be hiding such a terrifying lava pool .
But this kind of information naturally wouldn’t leak with those Huge Desert Scorpions around and the Flame Salamander guarding it .
Furthermore, this desert was always treated by cultivators as a barren land . No one would want to pa.s.s through such a desolate area, and so this place had remained hidden until now .
Otherwise, even just the information that the Flame Salamander existed here would have definitely caused waves and brought others here before Long Chen had arrived . Then Long Chen wouldn’t have been able to obtain anything now .
The lava pool had a diameter of thirty meters and was rolling like boiling water . Burning waves of heat came from it .
Long Chen used his Pill Flame to protect his body yet still felt it was somewhat difficult to breath . He realized that the Flame Salamander must have been absorbing the fire energy here in order to cultivate .
But luckily the Flame Salamander wasn’t one of those creatures that lived in groups . Furthermore, it was a hermaphrodite creature, so he didn’t need to worry about its mate coming to attack him .
Buzz… s.p.a.ce trembled and the lava began to wildly surge, reaching higher and higher heights . Long Chen quickly retreated .
