#216 - This is a real dragon egg, why are you smashing it?
"Big Black, are there really dragon eggs here?" Xu Chengxian asked, standing next to a stone-carved dragon egg, shaking the gluttonous fierce soul he was holding in his hand to confirm.
"One egg is worth 1,500 units of blood energy!" Big Black stiffened its neck and reaffirmed the price with him.
"It's just 1,500 units of blood energy, would I welch on you?" Xu Chengxian said anxiously, urging, "Hurry up, tell me how to take out the real dragon egg."
"Hmph, that's hard to say," Big Black snorted. "Some snakes even deduct a few dozen units of blood energy!"
This wasn't a small deal, it muttered to itself.
One of us wants the dragon egg, and the other wants blood energy, let's be frank.
Let no one despise the other for being mercenary.
What's more, it had just tricked Xu Chengxian a little.
It couldn't help but worry that the other party would seek revenge later.
"My demonic integrity isn't that bad! Quickly tell me how to get the dragon egg!" Xu Chengxian grabbed Big Black and shook it wildly. Why are you being coy at this critical moment?
He roughly guessed what Big Black was worried about.
This fellow had called him over earlier, saying he had seen a Reincarnation Grass, but in reality, it had also sensed the existence of the demonic vines.
But not only did it not say so explicitly, it also deliberately led him over.
The mind of a weapon spirit bound to a master is connected, if he wasn't sure that the other party didn't have any malicious intent, and that the contract hadn't backfired, he would have already turned hostile.
However, this matter couldn't be let go of so easily.
It was just that Xu Chengxian hadn't figured out how to settle this score with Big Black yet.
So he simply decided not to mention it for now.
He would wait and see how Big Black behaved before deciding.
"Demonic integrity? Hmph." Even when being shaken into a blur, Big Black remained as steady as a mountain, as stable as an old dog.
"Just now, you were calling this尊 'Little Blacky,' but now that we're in front of the dragon egg, this 尊 becomes Big Black," it grumbled. "When you see the real dragon egg later, will you have to call this 尊 'Grandpa Black?'"
"No problem!" Xu Chengxian had no mood to listen to its nonsense and immediately said, "As long as there's a dragon egg inside, I'll call you Grandpa Black from now on. We also have a Grandpa Turtle at home, you two are considered peers."
"Hmph! It's your blessing to call this 尊 'Grandpa'!" Big Black raised its head and puffed out its chest. "Let your Grandpa Black go, and Grandpa Black will teach you how to get the dragon egg."
Xu Chengxian immediately released his hand that was pinching the back of its neck.
Then, according to Big Black's instructions, he moved the nearest dragon egg over.
"What next?" he asked.
"Smash these two eggs together."
"…Say that again?" Xu Chengxian suspected he had misheard.
"Grandpa Black told you to smash the two dragon eggs together!" Big Black said loudly.
Did he grow hair in his ears?
Or did weeds grow in his heart?
He couldn't even understand such a simple thing!
"…I'll tolerate you." Xu Chengxian decided to endure it for the sake of the dragon egg.
Then, with a shake, blood energy surged, enlarging the condensed crimson hand to more than ten feet.
The two hands each held a dragon egg.
Then, they collided in one place.
"Damn it, it's hard not to think of cracking eggs." He had seen experienced cooks in the kitchen break eggshells like this.
Bang!
Rustle!
This time it was much better.
A little bit of skin was scratched off.
A lot of debris fell off.
"…Tsk." Xu Chengxian looked at it, "So solid?"
"This is seabed mud mixed with dragon scale bone powder! How could it not be solid?" Big Black crossed its arms and squinted at him. "Don't you think about it, how could the things that the True Dragon race uses to paste on the outside of dragon eggs be easily broken?"
Xu Chengxian thought about it, and it was true.
If it was so brittle, the uninvited guests who entered the mausoleum every ten years would have discovered the secret long ago.
In addition to the handiwork of the demonic vines, the large pits on the ground must also have been left by the battles of the demons who entered the secret realm.
In such a situation, the stone-carved shell could still be intact, which shows how hard it is.
"Hey? That's not right either!" He discovered something strange, "If these stone-carved dragon eggs were intact during the war, it's impossible not to be noticed."
"What's wrong?" Big Black sneered. "Not everyone is as ignorant as you."
Seabed mud mixed with dragon scale bone powder has a very wide range of uses.
Those who recognize it know that it is very hard, but they don't know that the True Dragon race would use it to smear dragon eggs, so they won't bother to investigate.
"Those who don't recognize it, or insist on breaking the stone shell, can't see the real dragon egg inside."
"What if, by chance, two eggs collided with each other?" Xu Chengxian still felt strange.
He wasn't just arguing for the sake of arguing.
It's just that the probability of this kind of coincidence happening is not small.
There are quite a few dragon eggs in the spirit garden.
This is also one of the reasons why he was excited.
If the two sides in the battle happened to choose dragon eggs as hidden weapons, or the dragon eggs that were affected happened to collide, there would be a chance to discover the truth.
Especially the former, the force must be great.
After breaking it, revealing the clues, how could they not check the remaining dragon eggs?
"Hmph, you smash the eggshell hard, and you'll know." Big Black narrowed its eyes, "Kid, are you afraid that you'll break the dragon egg inside?"
"A little bit." Xu Chengxian admitted.
Although the eggshells of the dragon eggs dug out from the imperial tomb before were also hard, they cracked with a little pressure under the blood energy package after being swallowed into the stomach.
He was still thinking about completing the task of hatching the descendants of the True Dragon.
What if the one that was broken happened to be the one with the potential to hatch? Wouldn't that be terrible?
He couldn't be lucky.
Sometimes, fate is just so fucked up.
What's more, who knows whether the vitality in the dragon egg with the broken shell will immediately dissipate.
If so, then he wouldn't even get 2 refinement points.
It would be a waste of effort.
That's not right.
He would still have to pay Big Black blood energy, although not much, it would still be a loss.
"By the way, I forgot to say before." Xu Chengxian quickly patched things up, "Only intact dragon eggs can be exchanged for blood energy from me."
"Don't worry, these are dragon eggs, and they can be placed in the True Dragon Main Hall Cemetery." Big Black laughed, "The hardness of the eggshell is no less than this outer layer. How can it be so easily broken?"
"So hard? That's fine."
With its words, Xu Chengxian had confidence in his heart.
He immediately smashed the two dragon eggs together again.
Bang!
Bang bang!
He smashed it three times in a row.
Each time, the force was greater than the last.
Finally, he heard it.
Crack!
A sound.
The outer shell cracked.
"Ha! It's done!" Xu Chengxian smiled, and the blood energy hand grabbed the dragon egg, subconsciously rubbing it.
He had peeled the outer layer of preserved eggs when he was a child, it was a habitual action.
The mud and stone layer that had been smashed open was still very hard.
But his hand strength was even harder.
In three or five strokes, with rustling sounds, the thick outer layer was rubbed off completely.
Revealing the dragon egg inside.
"…Hey?" Xu Chengxian took a look, how could this look exactly the same as the layer that had just been opened outside?
Moreover, divine sense detection.
It's indeed exactly the same!
"Haha! As expected!" Big Black laughed, "Don't look, this is the same, keep smashing!"
…
Four times.
He knocked four times.
The jade-like mud and stone layer that was knocked off was more than three feet thick!
"This True Dragon race is really idle!" Xu Chengxian looked at the dragon egg in his hand, which was still the same as before, and couldn't help but laugh and cry.
Good fellow.
Is this a matryoshka doll?
Then he prepared to knock the fifth time.
But as soon as he raised it, he heard Big Black say: "Hey, hey, hey? What are you doing, what are you doing?"
"This is a real dragon egg, why are you still smashing it?"
