Shen Wen’an’s figure quickly appeared next to the stone egg from before.
With the Inner Core ford within, the stored Sword Elent Power was far superior to the previous Fetal Breathing Perfection Realm, so he didn’t need to worry about the consumption of Protective Sword Essence.
This ti, he didn’t intend to cut open the stone egg right away, but rather prepared to first inspect the surface of the stone egg.
Standing in front of the dark stone egg, Shen Wen’an extended his sword point, from which sharp sword aura erged and slowly prodded forward.
The sword aura flickered, continuously sparking on the stone egg’s surface, yet unable to cause any damage.
Seeing this, Shen Wen’an frowned slightly.
Up till now, he couldn’t discern whether the surface of the stone egg was tal or stone.
After so fruitless attempts, he pondered for a mont and decided to summon his freshly repaired Lifebound Magical Sword.
The Dragon Soul Magical Sword radiated brilliant aura and slowly pierced the stone egg’s surface.
A spray of sparks ensued, yet the Dragon Soul Magical Sword could not advance by an inch.
"Such a hard material, if used for artifact refining, might be able to withstand attacks from Golden Core Cultivators."
While pondering secretly, Shen Wen’an gradually infused more Sword Elent Power into the Dragon Soul Magical Sword, simultaneously manipulating it to begin spinning.
The quiet depths of the magma lake echoed with crisp tallic collisions.
Ti quickly passed, half an hour later, just as Shen Wen’an felt disheartened and wanted to give up, the Separation Fire Fla fixed in the magma by his Sword Elent Power broke free and flew over with the bronze lamp.
Under Shen Wen’an’s puzzled gaze, the Separation Fire Fla within the bronze lamp suddenly transford into a palm-sized flaming flying bird, landing directly on the stone egg.
Thud thud!
Thud thud thud!
After landing, the flaming flying bird began pecking at the hard shell that posed a challenge even for Shen Wen’an!
In just a short mont, the bird managed to peck a small pit the size of a grain of rice on the stone egg’s surface!
Seeing this, Shen Wen’an approached with so astonishnt.
Only to see the flaming flying bird, transford from the Separation Fire Fla, raising its head and proudly looking at him.
As if saying, "See my prowess?"
"Can you break this thing open?"
"What’s inside?"
Shen Wen’an first looked at the stone egg, then at the fla bird perched on it and asked.
The fla bird seed unable to understand his words, rely tilting its head, staring at the white fla wandering in the distance, before flashing its figure and rushing over!
That strand of white fla tried to evade but couldn’t, instantly captured by the fla bird, and both the white external fla and the innate spiritual qi inside were swallowed directly into its belly!
Devouring a strand of white fla, the fla bird returned to the stone egg’s surface, frantically pecking for a while, leaving a peanut-sized pit, then raised its head to look at Shen Wen’an.
This ti, Shen Wen’an roughly understood its intent.
"You want to let you devour those white flas, and you’ll help open the stone egg."
Understanding the fla bird’s aning, Shen Wen’an fell into a dilemma.
The stone egg was mysterious and hard, able to stand for countless years in such a terrifying magma, definitely not an ordinary object.
Yet, similarly important were those white flas containing innate spiritual qi, each strand vital to the Shen Family.
If he let the fla bird devour them without restraint, how could the Shen Family’s cultivators with fire attribute spirit roots break through Fetal Breathing without enough fire attribute innate spiritual qi?
Compared to the stone egg, which was just a mystery box.
Shen Wen’an even worried if the stone egg were actually opened, what if there was sothing dangerous inside? Wouldn’t that be a total loss?
Seeing his reluctance, the fla bird seed anxious too.
A weak divine spirit fluctuation was transmitted, but Shen Wen’an still didn’t know what it ant to convey.
After a while of stalemate between the two, Shen Wen’an glanced at the white flas in the surrounding magma, then turned to the fla bird and said, "Fifty strands of white flas, and you’ll help open the stone egg."
"If you agree, nod your head."
Fifty strands of innate spiritual qi was his bottom line, if this creature didn’t agree, so be it.
He couldn’t allow the fla bird to consu all the innate spiritual qi in the entire magma lake just to open an uncertain stone egg.
The fla bird perched on the stone egg’s surface, upon hearing, seed very emotional, fluttering its wings up and down before him.
Shen Wen’an felt that if the bird could speak, it would definitely be grumbling now.
"Is it too little?"
Seeing this, Shen Wen’an rubbed his chin.
The stone egg was large, if the fla bird relied solely on its beak, it might take years to break it open.
"Eighty strands?"
After a brief thought, he added thirty strands directly.
The reason for his generosity was that he felt the Separation Fire Fla, upon consuming the white flas containing innate spiritual qi, seed capable of evolution.
If it could truly transform into the Seed of Separation Fire, consuming the innate spiritual qi might not be too much of a loss.
After all, at that ti, He Zhongyi and others in artifact refining would still need the help of this Separation Fire Fla.
Hearing this, the fla bird tilted its head in thought for a mont, then shook its head.
Seeing this, Shen Wen’an imdiately grabbed the bronze lamp beside him.
"Eighty strands, no more."
"If you don’t agree, then stay here obediently, and don’t ever try to devour any white fla again."
The fla bird, seeing this, beca excited once more, fluttering up and down, eventually landing back on the stone egg’s surface, reluctantly nodding its head.
