Chapter 25: The Egg of God's Breath
As he spoke, the tone of the soap-robed Taoist immortal became more and more mysterious, with a hint of excitement in his low voice.
"This round egg is only the size of an egg, and the old man was still soft when he took it, and the eggshell vaguely showed that there was a young beast in it that was not yet mature.
"The breath of God?"
Hearing this, the Haoyue Fairy, as the master, was a little surprised, and blurted out: "Is there really a breath of God?" ”
The other immortals' eyes widened as well, revealing a look of shock.
The soap-robed old Taoist stroked the long beard on his chest, shook his head and said: "The gods and men are the main heavens, and the immortal masters are all true immortals who have achieved through cultivation, but there is still a huge difference between immortals and gods. The gods and spirits are different, and they can become immortals through human cultivation, but they can never reach the realm of becoming gods. ”
As the soap-robed old man slowly said, everyone's interest was also raised.
"Legend has it that when the heavens and the earth were not born in chaos, there were three thousand demon gods in it. Not to mention the devil, Pangu is one of the gods, and so is my Dandao ancestor Hongjun. It's just that after Pangu opened the sky, the divine axe was invincible, the heaven and the earth were split, the yin and yang were divided, the earth, water, wind and fire escaped in all directions, and the demon god died, and only three or two remained, most of whom had the breath of the gods, and most of them were beasts. But after all, beasts are not intelligent humans, and the legendary divine beasts have survived for generations, and their bloodlines have been extremely thin, let alone the breath of the gods. ”
"If you say that there are only true gods left in this world, I'm afraid there will be no more than the legendary Hongjun Ancestor, and the immortal co-lord Taishang Daojun Yuan Shi Tianzun."
The voice of the old Tao implied a bit of vicissitudes, word by word, as if penetrating the ancient and modern, causing everyone to nod their heads, as if they were recalling something, and as if they were sighing about something, sighing endlessly.
"Fellow Daoists, you can imagine how shocked you were after feeling a trace of divine breath in this egg!"
The soap-robed old Taoist fairy was bone-lining, and as he spoke, a trace of oil flashed in his eyes, and others didn't notice it for a while, but An Zhen frowned, and a little hesitation flashed in his clear eyes.
"Immediately, I put the round egg into the spirit beast bag and kept it warm, as if it were a treasure! Who knows, but after three days, I stayed and returned to my residence, and then took it out, and this round egg turned into what it is now. ”
The soap-robed old man said as he spoke, his eyes darkened, his tone lamented, he shook his head, and then took out something from the storage bag, which was an egg the size of a baby's fist, with a dull shell, and seemed to have no vitality.
And his demeanor, as if looking at his own deceased junior, stretched out his right hand and gently rubbed the eggshell at the right time, revealing sadness and lamentation.
Seeing that the egg of the divine beast in anticipation was nothing more than a gray dead egg, the people whose appetites had been hung high suddenly showed expressions of disappointment or impatience.
"Ahem, Xushan Zhenren, I thought you could change the stinky problem of bragging, why is it still the same this time!"
"That's right, as soon as I heard the breath of God, I really believed it, really!"
"Xushan Old Dao, you don't have other skills, but your mouth is slippery, it seems that the next auction meeting in our Xuanzhou Fang City, Xianbo Zhengong should invite you to preside."
Hearing the banter that burst into flames, An Zhen also nodded, I'm afraid that this seemingly steady old Taoist priest is actually a person who likes to sing and shout.
He Junxian shook his head with a smile, and whispered in An Zhen's ear: "Miss, this Xushan real person must go to Haoyue Palace to participate in the trade fair almost every month. And every time I bring something, it is said that it is a lot of fanciful, but in fact, the value is very different. However, Xushan has been enlightened for many years, and there are not a few good things in his hands, so everyone will always look forward to a few points. But today, I'm afraid this dead egg is going to disappoint everyone. ”
An Zhen asked, "Why be disappointed? Isn't a dead egg with the breath of a divine beast of any value? ”
Shaking his head, he said to Junxian: "Its appearance does look like the egg of some ancient divine beast, but its shell is gray in color, and there are even cracks intertwined on the eggshell. Even if there was once a trace of the breath of a divine beast, it had long since dissipated and could not have any effect. ”
Listening to He Junxian's explanation, and then looking at the mocking postures of the immortals around him, An Zhen suddenly found that in the round egg, there seemed to be a wisp of mist escaping from the crack, but it was extremely faint and faint, and it was not very real.
And the position of the mud pill palace in the center of his eyebrows, there was a slight itchy feeling, and he actually felt that wisp of mist.
Whether it was a worthless dead thing, or a rare thing that still had a breath of divine beast breath, An Yu knew that it was useless to look at it from a distance, unless he got closer, he could only be sure by studying and sensing the wisp of breath that seemed to be there.
Thinking of this, An Zhen didn't suppress the impulse in his heart, and saw that the guests present were still laughing at Xushan Zhenren, but his slender body immediately stood up and bowed to Xushan Zhenren: "Senior, can you let Zhen'er step forward and take a closer look at this egg?" ”
"Hey, it's only such a little girl who is interested in what's going on, really"
Just when someone gave him the stairs, Xushan Zhenren squinted slightly, and his heart was settled. And An Zhen is still young, it seems that he has just cultivated a little mana at most, and there is no difference between him and mortals in his eyes, so he nodded and smacked his lips: "Okay, Miss An Jia, even if you come up and check carefully, it doesn't matter if you don't like it in the end, there are still some good things to bring to you here." ”
After blessing the blessing, An Zhen hurriedly stepped forward, half-squatting in front of the blue jade table of Xushan Zhenren, his eyes just looking at the round egg.
Looking at this egg closely, it is the size of an egg, round in the middle, slightly pointed at both ends, and the cracked gap is from the tip of one end that begins to spread downward, and the gray color on the shell cannot be concealed, not to mention that there is no vitality at all, even a mortal like An Zhen who has never practiced can feel a kind of dead air emanating from this egg.
Unwillingly frowning his slender willow eyebrows, An Zhen took a deep breath and looked up at Xushan Zhenren: "Senior, can you touch it?" ”
"Whatever you want." Xushan Zhenren is "generous" and has no intention of obstruction.
With consent, An Zhen did not hesitate, and directly stretched out the index finger of his right hand, and the green fingertips lightly touched on the egg shell.
As soon as he touched the round egg, he felt that the shell was a little cool, gently stroked, but it was as smooth as jade, half-hanging his head, and An Zhen's eyes were burning staring at the gap in the eggshell
Sure enough, a wisp of mist that seemed to be absent would occasionally overflow from the gap, inhaling slightly, and even smelling a hint of fragrant smell, and the closer it was to this egg, the more intense the itching sensation on An Zhen's eyebrows became!
