In the west of the Doufa Continent, in the West Flame Domain, in a secret realm.

Yue Mingju was holding a fiery red stone and was crawling through the dense forest.

At this time, the clothes on his body were already soaked with blood, and the place where he crawled left a bloody path.

With too much blood loss and no further true yuan, Yue Mingju's consciousness has gradually blurred, and he only feels that a chill is gradually surging up his body, as if his entire body is being frozen little by little.

Only on the fiery red round stone in his arms, there was a trace of warm breath, which was why he still subconsciously held the stone at this time.

Even with the vitality of Mu De's body, the power of dead wood in spring, under the sleepless escape for three consecutive days, he has reached the limit, and now he has run out of oil and lamps, and he doesn't even have the strength to release a trace of divine consciousness and contact Master Chen Lao in the Na Ling Ring.

I didn't expect that I escaped from Purple Maple City and went through so many things, but in the end I had to die here.

Yue Mingju felt that he couldn't climb anymore, so he simply gave up crawling, used the last bit of strength, and turned to lean against the trunk of a big tree.

His hand holding the stone hung limply, allowing it to lie quietly on his chest.

At the same time, in his mind, the previous events also flashed like a marquee.

From childhood to adulthood, all the time in Purple Maple City, the life with his younger brother Yue Mingsheng, until he picked up the Na Ling Ring, met the master, and all kinds of things at the Danyuan Conference later, and after.

After escaping from Purple Maple City, he left the Nanfeng Domain and went to the Western Cang Domain, where he joined a team composed of scattered cultivators as treasure hunters and wandered in the Western Cang Domain.

Relying on his superb alchemy, he mixed very well in the team, and his strength had rapidly grown to the seventh level of the Spirit Realm.

A few days ago, in the West Yan Domain north of the Western Cang Domain, a ruin was discovered in a secret realm.

Soon this ruin was investigated and found to be the tomb of a strong man in the Honorable Realm, and this Honorable Realm powerhouse was a Seven-Rank Danzun.

And this Danzun was also a well-known figure during his lifetime, not only did his alchemy reach the seventh grade, but he was also a strong man at the peak of the Venerable Realm. Later, I don't know how to offend the Feng clan, provoked the Feng clan to hit it hard, and then fled without a trace, and finally disappeared without a trace, even so, to escape from the Feng clan, it can also be seen its strength.

The discovery of the remains of such a strong man immediately shook the surrounding domains, and countless people rushed to the Xiyan Domain, wanting to seek benefits from it, if they could get the inheritance of the strong, it would naturally be a great thing, even if there was no inheritance, the mausoleum of a Danzun must have countless secret treasures. After all, it is well known on the mainland that refiners and alchemists are the richest of the monks.

Yue Mingju's team also joined in the excitement and came to the West Yan Domain, although the highest strength of their team was the high level of the Spirit Realm, and they didn't expect to get the inheritance or something. But this secret realm itself is a place with countless heavenly and earthly treasures, and any benefit can catch up with their usual benefits for a long time. There are countless treasure hunters like them, and no one cares about them alone.

But I don't know if it's good luck or bad luck, in the process of exploring, they strayed into an extremely hidden ruin, which seems to be one of the places where Na Danzun made alchemy during his lifetime.

Among the ruins, they found no treasure, and the only thing they got was this round stone that did not slip away.

They studied for a long time, and found that this stone was not at all useful except that it was very hard, not even a little aura or true yuan fluctuations, the only unusual thing was that it could not be put into the storage ring, and after confirming this, they had to hold the stone and withdraw from the ruins in discouragement.

However, before they entered the ruins, they were noticed by others, and they were noticed by a team led by a certain prince from the Western Yan Domain, and there was even the existence of a powerhouse in the King Realm in the team.

Seeing them leave the ruins, the prince of the family decided that they had obtained some treasure and wanted to kill people and take the treasure.

With the strength of Yue Mingju's team, they can't compete at all, and even if they tell the other party that they didn't get anything, no one will believe it. Although Yue Mingju's cultivation is progressing extremely fast, he is still an alchemist after all, and he is not as good as those geniuses who are strong in combat and can fight beyond the level, with the strength of the spiritual realm, in the face of the powerhouse of the king realm, he can naturally only escape.

In the process of escaping, he was separated from other teammates, and fled here alone with stones.

Originally, he should have thrown the broken stone that got in the way and caused him to fall to this point, but for some reason, Yue Mingju still held it until now.

Thinking of this, Yue Mingju couldn't help but smile bitterly.

There are so many treasures in his Naling ring, and he doesn't have the strength to get them, and he just wants to find some relics, and now he is reduced to the point where he can only die here with this broken stone, which is really self-inflicted.

He wasn't afraid of death, but he didn't want to die at all.

"I'm sorry...... Mingsheng, my brother broke his trust...... I hope you can live well. ”

"I'm sorry...... Master, I have failed your expectations......"

Yue Mingju only felt that his consciousness was getting more and more blurred, but he didn't notice that the fiery red cobblestone on his chest was soaked in his blood, and it was emitting a trace of light at this moment.

In the end, Yue Mingju's consciousness fell into darkness.

In the boundless darkness, Yue Mingju only felt extremely cold.

Just when he thought he was going to sink in this cold dead silence, a light appeared in the darkness.

It was a faint, but warm fire, floating quietly in front of Yue Mingju.

Yue Mingju subconsciously leaned closer, holding the fire that was so faint that it seemed to be extinguished at any time in his arms, trying to protect the fire with his own body while seeking a trace of warmth from its body.

At this time, if anyone else is here, they will see that the unconscious Yue Mingju is holding the stone tightly, and the light emitted from the cobblestone is getting brighter and brighter, and finally, the surface of the cobblestone is broken.

A small head poked out of the cobblestone and made a faint chirp.

The first thing it saw was Yue Mingju's face.

The little head became excited, and while chirping, he struggled outward, only to see the stone shell shatter inch by inch, and finally, a palm-sized chick with sparse red fluff walking all over his body broke free from the cobblestone and pounced on Yue Mingju's chest.

The chick chirped at Yue Mingju's face.

After screaming for a while, he found that Yue Mingju did not move, so the chick fluttered in a hurry, and after fluttering twice, it fell down one by one.

It seemed that he had no strength, and after falling, the chick quieted down, lying on Yue Mingju's chest, chirping twice from time to time, Yue Mingju hung his head, and the blood on his face slipped down and dripped on the chick's body.

The body of the chick glowed red, and the dripping blood seemed to be absorbed, and the red light of the chick gradually spread to Yue Mingju's body, a person and a bird, which seemed to be integrated.

I don't know how long it took, but two figures appeared in the sky.

It was two young women, one in red and the other in a green shirt, both of whom had beautiful faces and a fairy-like temperament.

"I felt the breath of the same race, and I rushed to take a look, but I didn't expect that there was a newborn who broke out of the shell. ”

The woman in red had a look of surprise on her face: "How can there be a newborn born here with a broken shell?

"Hmm, what's going on with that human?" said the green-shirted woman on the side.

"Hey, this eggshell—I remember, the one that was stolen by humans decades ago!" exclaimed the woman in the red shirt.

"It's Yanliu-sama's...... I remembered it too. The woman in the green shirt was surprised: "We have been looking for decades and have no whereabouts, originally Lord Yanliu has given up, I didn't expect to be here." ”

"Let's bring the newborn back, Iwon-sama will be very happy. The woman in the red shirt laughed.

"What about the human?

The red-shirted woman frowned in disgust: "I hate humans the most, they are all greedy bastards, don't let him defile the breath of Lord Yanliu and burn it to ashes!"

The woman in the green shirt nodded, raised her hand, and a cyan flame appeared in the palm of her hand, and she was about to make a move, but she heard a voice in the void.

"Keep people under the fire!"
