Chen Fan originally thought that hatching this stone egg would only take an hour or two, or at most a day or two, but the reality was far beyond his expectation.
He stayed in this stone hall for two consecutive days, and the stone egg also floated quietly for two days. There was no movement from the beginning to the end, but the surface of the stone egg was always filled with wisps of dark golden spots.
, indicating that the stone egg's absorption of dragon energy has never stopped for a moment.
He was a little uneasy, so he took the initiative to walk to the old city lord and asked in a low voice, "Old city lord, this..."
"Don't worry, I just plan to take a gamble with these dragon energy. If it succeeds, I don't know what objects will be raised. Even if it fails, there is no need to worry about it."
After guarding for so long, there was still no fluctuation in the stone egg. Even the old city lord was a little discouraged. However, he had such an open-minded character and did not feel sorry for this. Instead, he stood up and comforted, "Since the stone egg is still there,
Absorbing dragon energy means there is still a glimmer of hope for success, we can leave it here and wait until later!"
"Okay!" Chen Fan couldn't come up with any good ideas, so he nodded and followed the old city lord out of the stone hall.
Stepping into the passage outside the stone hall, the old city lord immediately activated the mechanism and sealed the stone door. The two left the passage and entered the grotto again, only to see Qingzhi squatting on the edge of the grotto with a bored expression on his face.
In a corner, he was silently looking at the sky outside, his little face looking very irritable.
Chen Fan took the initiative to walk over and gently patted Qing Zhi on the shoulder, "What are you thinking about?"
The little girl turned back with a grimace, "Brother Chen Fan, I'm wondering when I can meet Sister Yaoyue again. Although it's safe here, it's really boring."
Chen Fan laughed dumbly, pointed to the stone room where Yang Jian was retreating, and said, "Just be patient for a while longer. When senior comes out of seclusion, we can take the initiative and fight back to Black Rock City!"
In terms of mid-level combat power, their side is not bad. The only thing they lack is the people who can resist Zhao Huang. As for the defenders of Black Rock City, they are not troublesome in Chen Fan's eyes. After all, these defenders have a lot of power.
Some of them are the former subordinates of the old city lord. As long as the old city lord Feng Xiang comes in person, some people will inevitably defect.
Qingzhi said with a bitter smile, "But how long will it take to wait? I'm so bored staying here, why don't you take me out to find medicinal materials?"
Chen Fan was stunned and asked her what medicinal materials she needed. Qingzhi said with a smile, "As long as they are medicinal materials with relatively powerful energy, I can bring these medicinal materials back and let Uncle Mo Ran refine them into something sweet for me!"
"Uh..." Chen Fan was also helpless and patted the snack guy on the forehead, but after thinking about it, he felt that this request was not too much.
After all, Qing Pheasant contributed a drop of blood essence not long ago. She has a green phoenix constitution. No matter how powerful the medicinal materials are, they will not cause damage to the body. Taking more medicinal materials with sufficient spiritual power can make up for the loss as soon as possible.
The lost essence and blood will be replenished.
Thinking of this, Chen Fan did not refuse immediately, but took Qing Pheasant with him, found the old city lord again, and informed him that he was going out.
The old city lord pondered, "The Zhao family's troops are still searching for us. It's not safe to go out hastily. But since we are looking for medicinal materials for Miss Qingzhi, I don't have any need to keep you. Besides..."
Having said this, the old city lord had a hint of lust in his eyes, "Little friend Chen Fan, I have one more thing to ask you, and that is about Quanzi..."
Before he could finish speaking, Chen Fan had already nodded and said, "Don't worry, City Lord, after I leave the forbidden area of the imperial city, I will also take the opportunity to find out about Feng Li. As long as I learn about him, I will definitely bring him back for you."
"
"So, thank you very much!" The old city lord coughed twice, stood up and cupped his hands.
"You're welcome!" Chen Fan hurriedly returned the favor. In order to help him hatch the stone egg, the other party was willing to donate even the remaining dragon energy in the dragon's veins. It was only a trivial matter, so he took care of it.
Walking out of the grotto, the blue pheasant was like a cheering little skylark, the heavy haze on its face swept away, and it kept flying over the sky, looking for something that might be the entrance.
Qingfeng's physique is unusual, but any medicinal herbs that can be swallowed can be absorbed by her, and will never bring any side effects. Seeing this little girl busy non-stop, constantly stuffing precious medicinal herbs into her mouth
Inside, he swallowed it whole, and Chen Fan also felt a little distressed. His eyelids twitched and he said, "With so many herbs, how long will it take for you to eat them all?"
Qing Pheasant stopped chewing, holding a piece of herb in his mouth, and said vaguely, "The elders said that I am still young and must consume enough energy to grow up. When I reach adulthood, I don't need to eat it anymore."
Already."
The vampire stranger suddenly smiled and said, "You are two hundred years old, but you are still too young? By the way, wasn't that Dragon Turtle Essence refined by you? Why is there still insufficient energy?"
Qing Pheasant curled his lips and said, "It's not even close, at least a dozen are enough!"
The corners of Chen Fan's eyes twitched a few times, and he said with a smile, "It seems that the evolutionary direction of the beast's physique is indeed very different from that of ordinary humans. That powerful energy has no effect on you."
"It can't be said that it's completely useless. After swallowing that essence, my ability has indeed improved a lot. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had part of my essence and blood drained out." Qingzhi blinked with a look on his face.
Said quietly.
Chen Fan nodded and was about to accompany Qing Pheasant to walk deeper into the woods. But before he had gone far, a warning sound from the vampire alien suddenly came from the Earth Core Magic Crystal, "Stop, there is someone ahead!"
"
Um?
Chen Fan immediately stopped, pulled Qing Pheasant's hand, and asked in a low voice, "You didn't sense anything wrong?"
This place is a forbidden area in the imperial city. It is full of smoke and poisonous miasma, and there are many barriers set up nearby. Even if the three of them stayed here for several days, they did not dare to wander in. How could there be other people there?
The vampire alien said dissatisfied, "You doubt my perception? The man is less than ten miles away from us, and his aura is very strong... Wait, this guy seems to be injured!"
Chen Fan raised his eyebrows and said, "After all, a barrier has been set up here. It is normal for ordinary people to be injured by the barrier if they break into the forbidden area without knowing it."
"No..." the vampire alien said in a deep voice, "There is no barrier in the area ten miles away. The ability of those who can break into this area is definitely extraordinary."
Chen Fan looked at Qing Pheasant and said, "Can you fly over and have a look?"
"Okay!" Qingzhi immediately stretched his fists and legs, breathed out from his small mouth, and a pair of five-color wind wings extended from his back. With a movement of his body, he appeared a hundred meters away in an instant.
"Be careful, don't expose yourself!" Chen Fan raised his voice to warn, and after circling twice, the Qing Pheasant shot high into the sky with a whoosh, leaving her crisp words in the air,
"knew!"
"Don't let this girl go to inquire about the situation alone. She can do anything with her confused personality. Let's follow her!" The vampire alien was not at ease and urged quickly.
Chen Fan's expression was a little strange, and he glanced at the Earth Core Magic Crystal calmly. The vampire alien immediately sensed his sight, and he was stunned and said what's wrong?
Chen Fan smiled half-heartedly and said, "Don't vampires have no gender distinction? Why are you so concerned about this little girl?" (To be continued)
