Looking at the innocent little monster, the dull look on Bai Xin's face could not go away for a long time.
Not to mention him, even Xiao Yan, who had watched the whole process, couldn't hold on any longer, and the hand that released the strange fire trembled slightly.
There was a "bang", and the alchemy furnace placed in front of him exploded suddenly because he failed to control the heat, and the fragments flew everywhere.
He had refined the Spirit-Gathering Pill hundreds of times without making any mistakes, but it actually exploded like this?
Ye Taotao was startled when she heard the noise, her eyes widened, and she hiccupped subconsciously.
"Hiccup~"
After wiping his face that was stained black by charcoal, Xiao Yan's charming and carefree face finally disappeared, and he looked at Ye Taotao with a grimace.
"Little ancestor, you have been studying for a long time. Even the fastest geniuses are not as fast as you, right?"
Ye Taotao opened her mouth, but before she could speak, she burped again: "Hiccup~"
Can't seem to stop.
He reached out and covered his mouth, trying hard to stop himself from burping.
"Are you scared?" After coming back to his senses, Bai Xin reached out and patted the little monster on the back, took the bottle that had fallen on the hay and fed it to her mouth, "Drink a little milk."
Ye Taotao took the bottle with both hands, sucked on the pacifier, and took a big sip.
Just put down the bottle, "burp~"
Not only did it not stop, the hiccups also had a sweet milky smell.
Ye Taotao hiccupped and glanced at Xiao Yan with an aggrieved look.
It's all his fault! If it hadn't been for him, I wouldn't have been scared!
Humph! I don’t want to talk to him all night!
After struggling for a long time, the moon was already high in the sky outside. After drinking a lot of milk soup, Ye Taotao finally stopped hiccupping.
After letting out a long breath, Ye Taotao fell down on the hay, finally feeling relieved.
Fortunately, it stopped. If the hiccups continue, I won't even think about sleeping tonight.
"Okay, okay, it was my fault, I scared Zaizai." Xiao Yan stepped forward, stretched out his hand to rub Ye Taotao's head, and messed up the hair that Bai Xin had dried for her.
Ye Taotao covered her head with her hands and glared at him.
Humph! If I say I won’t talk to you, I won’t talk to you!
I don't know whether it was because she used too much spiritual energy or because she had been fussing over the hiccups for too long. Ye Taotao hugged the quilt and fell asleep after a while.
In a dream.
It is still endless wasteland and scorched earth.
Only this time, there was a small green plant in front of Ye Taotao.
"Back again."
Looking at the scene in front of her, Ye Taotao was not as helpless as before this time. She knew that this was her dream!
I reached out and touched the leaves of the little plant. The little plant also trembled its body, as if it was responding to something.
"You shouldn't be thirsty anymore, right?" Ye Taotao thought, looking at the lively appearance of the little plant.
Ye Taotao has already tried how to condense auras with eight attributes: gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, and ice, but the most abundant one around here is a black aura whose attributes she can't guess.
What kind of spiritual energy can be created?
With this idea in mind, Ye Taotao was ready to give it a try.
But this time, it was more difficult than any time before. No matter how hard she tried, she could not control the black aura gathering in her palms, just like facing a group of disobedient children.
After working hard for a while, but with no results, Ye Taotao pursed her lips and became a little angry.
Since you are so disobedient, I will eat you all!
Stomping her feet, Ye Taotao opened her mouth angrily, and breathed hard towards these disobedient black light spots.
In an instant, like a whale swallowing food, countless black light spots poured into her mouth!
Swallowing a large ball of light dots in one gulp, Ye Taotao smashed them in her mouth. She was surprised to find that these black light dots had the same flavor as the strange fire that Xiao Yan gave her before.
Hmm...it's sweet, like a fluffy and soft chocolate black forest cake!
After tasting the sweetness, Ye Taotao felt something was wrong when she looked at these black spots of light, which were shiny and made her salivate.
This much should last a long time, right?
Uh-huh, so scary... The black light spots were trembling, as if Ye Taotao was a big devil.
I don't know who was the first to react. A small ball of light came to Ye Taotao's hand and rubbed it in an indescribable way.
It seems to be saying: "Come on, come on, try again, I will be obedient this time!"
Realizing that the light spots were not as resistant to him as before, Ye Taotao temporarily gave up the idea of eating them all and reached out to gather these black light spots.
The black light spots were obediently gathered in her palm, and she slowly pinched out a dark...egg?
That's right, it's an egg.
Oval, smooth, and a bit rough on the outside, it looks gray like a stone.
"What's the use of this egg?" Ye Taotao frowned in confusion.
Is it going to hatch?
She is still a cub and doesn’t want to hatch eggs!
He stretched out his hand to scatter the stone egg, but Ye Taotao was surprised to find that this egg could not be transformed into spiritual energy again like the things he had created before.
What's going on?
Just when she was confused and couldn't figure it out, she suddenly felt something tickling the corner of her clothes.
Looking down, I saw a small green plant with a straight leaf stretched out and placed on the corner of my clothes, as if ready to say something to me.
Ye Taotao felt it was amazing. She squatted down, stared at the little plant, and asked, "What do you want to do?"
The little plant shook its body, and the leaves hanging on the corner of Ye Taotao's clothes loosened, and pointed at the stone egg in Ye Taotao's hand.
Ye Taotao handed the stone egg towards the little plant: "Do you want this?"
The little plant shook its head, as if nodding.
"Give it to you." Ye Taotao arched her eyebrows, showed a sweet smile, and placed the stone egg next to the little plant.
The little plant can actually understand her words! He even asks her for things!
Is it difficult to understand that it is a grass spirit?
I wonder when it can turn into a human form?
The little plant stretched out two leaves and pulled the stone egg to its rhizome with force, as if it was hatching the egg. It pressed closely together and covered it with two leaves.
*
I don’t know how many realms separate them.
In the distant Cangming Realm, above the sky, the palace, which was as quiet as a tomb, finally had a trace of movement.
Behind the layers of brocade curtains, on a soft couch that was almost luxurious, a white-haired boy slowly opened his eyes.
As if he had been hit by something, the young man reached out and touched his body impatiently, and actually touched a dusty stone egg.
After looking at the stone egg quietly for a while, the young man frowned slightly, and finally threw it off the bed in disgust.
Turned over and fell asleep again.
Under the sky, countless monks who were as quiet as chickens breathed a long sigh of relief and continued to do their own things.
The Cangming world, which had almost solidified the moment the boy woke up, became lively again after he closed his eyes.
