Chapter 386: The Phoenix Egg Hatches

Looking down at the earth from high above!

A red crack stretched for hundreds of *li*, resembling a giant dragon.

Within a hundred *li* of this Purgatory Abyss, the vegetation was extremely lush, with absolutely no ice or snow covering it.

He Pingsheng's vast spiritual sense descended with a roar.

Twenty thousand *zhang*—it could cover more than a hundred *li*.

After a few such sweeps, the entire situation of the Purgatory Abyss was captured in his eyes.

There were quite a few cultivators here.

Most were at the Golden Core Stage, but there were also one or two Nascent Soul powerhouses.

These people were in seclusion in such a place, intending to absorb the rich fire-attribute law power here.

To put it bluntly, most were here to seek the Dao.

He Pingsheng found a place where the flames were relatively intense and landed.

There was no one around!

That was good!

He took out a formation disk and began to set up a formation.

Soon, a third-tier Spirit-Prohibiting Formation and a third-tier Early Warning Formation were set up.

These two great formations covered a radius of a hundred *zhang*.

The formations were like bubbles, inverted exactly over the crimson magma.

He Pingsheng sat cross-legged in the void, then with a wave of his hand, took out the phoenix egg with golden patterns on its crimson shell.

Then, with a casual toss, he threw the phoenix egg into the molten lava beneath.

The phoenix egg did not sink into the lava but floated on top of it.

Then, visibly to the naked eye, countless fire-attribute powers and law powers began to be desperately absorbed by the little life inside the phoenix egg.

Ignoring the phoenix egg!

He Pingsheng took out a ring to examine it.

This was the war trophy obtained after killing Patriarch Ruo Kai, which he hadn't had time to check yet.

Now was a good time to check it.

With a wave of his hand, he wiped away the faint trace of spiritual sense on the ring, then sent his own spiritual sense deep into it.

*Hiss, hiss, hiss... *

Seeing the items inside the ring, He Pingsheng was still quite shocked.

Because he saw many spirit stones!

And they were all mid-tier.

Mid-tier spirit stones, the size of chicken eggs, a pile of them totaling forty or fifty thousand.

In other words, if converted into low-tier spirit stones, that would be four or five hundred million.

"Too many!" He Pingsheng let out a deep breath and muttered to himself: "Sure enough, killing people and seizing treasures is the fastest way to accumulate wealth!"

Leaving these mid-tier spirit stones aside.

He Pingsheng's spiritual sense swept over other items.

There were quite a few items.

There were medicinal herbs, elixirs, and materials for refining weapons, as well as some jade slips and magic treasures.

He Pingsheng had no interest in medicinal herbs and elixirs; he threw these aside for now, thinking he could strengthen them later and take them to the Imperial Capital for Ling Zhiwang to stock the Chamber of Commerce.

He first took out the magic treasures.

There were three magic treasures in total.

An ice-attribute flying sword: mid-tier magic treasure.

An ice-attribute shield: mid-tier magic treasure.

And a fire-attribute crescent blade: low-tier magic treasure.

He Pingsheng basically had no use for these things.

But after strengthening, they could be used by Qiao Huizhu.

After all, they were both ice-attribute.

The fire-attribute one could be given to Xiaohe.

It could also be given to Old Cheng.

Hmm...

That would do.

He Pingsheng waved his hand and threw these three magic treasures into the Ju Bao Pen together.

Then he looked at the jade slips.

He Pingsheng hoped to find the 【Myriad Mountain Flying Snow】 divine ability from the jade slips; he had to admit, this divine ability was quite perverted.

A dozen or so jade slips were picked up one by one by He Pingsheng to watch.

He held a blue jade slip to his forehead, and his body trembled.

The jade slip recorded a spell.

Spell: Ice Arrow Technique!

This was the spell True Person Ruo Kai had used to attack He Pingsheng the first time.

After casting, it could condense a huge ice arrow.

Hmm...

Not bad!

Strengthen!

After searching for a while longer, He Pingsheng finally found the jade slip for the Myriad Mountain Flying Snow divine ability.

After reading this divine ability, He Pingsheng was shocked.

Once this thing was cultivated to perfection, one could cast thousands of snowflakes in a single thought.

And it could suppress a region of space!

It could also carry spatial laws to interfere with the spatial law power of a void.

And the tier of this divine ability actually reached the level of a top-tier Earth Tier.

Too strong.

Strengthen!

He Pingsheng threw this thing into the Ju Bao Pen as well.

Next was waiting.

On the first day, the fire-attribute crescent blade was strengthened.

After strengthening, it became two blades.

The first one!

Name: Fire Flame Crescent Blade!

Tier: Top-tier magic treasure!

The second one!

Name: Sunset Melting Gold Blade!

Tier: Top-tier magic treasure!

He Pingsheng reached out and grabbed the Sunset Melting Gold Blade.

*Boom... *

The next moment, the blade was brandished by him.

One word: handsome!

The handle was as thick as a spear handle, and the length was one *zhang*.

The blade head was boiling with fire, only three *chi* long!

Waving this thing in his hand, firelight immediately flared everywhere.

Just one feeling: fierce!

If he gave this to Xiaohe, he didn't know if she could handle it.

He would think about it later!

On the second day, the ice shield was strengthened.

Both were top-tier magic treasures: one 【Divine Xuan Bing Dun】, the second called 【Ice Dance】.

He Pingsheng put them away.

He would give one to Sister Qiao later and keep one for himself.

On the third day, the ice-attribute flying sword was strengthened.

It turned into two top-tier magic treasures.

This thing looked feminine, so He Pingsheng couldn't be bothered to look at the names and just put them away.

In the following days, the Ice Arrow Technique was strengthened into two!

The two were much the same.

He Pingsheng took one out to practice.

The name was 【Cold Ice Consecutive Arrow Technique】, but it was more powerful; it could condense seven ice arrows to fly out one after another at once.

It was somewhat similar to the 【Seven Arrows Falling on the Tian Shan】 of the Xiao family of the Ice Extreme Sect.

But it was much stronger than the Xiao family's Seven Arrows Falling on the Tian Shan.

The divine ability 【Myriad Mountain Flying Snow】 was also strengthened into two.

The first was named 【Heavenly Snow Locking World】, the second was named 【Nine Heavens Ice Dragon】.

He Pingsheng put these things away first.

Next, he continued to strengthen other materials.

Of course, the divine abilities and spells definitely had to be cultivated.

There are no years in cultivation!

In a flash, three years passed.

He Pingsheng's cultivation did not break through, but the phoenix egg floating in the raging magma fire suddenly made a *kacha* sound.

He Pingsheng, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and looked down excitedly.

A crack had truly appeared on the red phoenix egg.

From within the crack, light mixed with gold and red kept shooting out.

"Rise..." He Pingsheng excitedly took the phoenix egg out of the magma.

*Kacha... *

Just as it landed in his hand, another crisp sound came from the phoenix egg.

More light shot out from the crack.

Within this light, there was a scorching aura that heated the surrounding air until it was scalding.

At this moment, He Pingsheng was almost certain that the phoenix inside was about to hatch.

This was a phoenix.

Thinking about it, he was also excited.

Through the gap, He Pingsheng's spiritual sense reached into the shell.

A bird covered in beautiful red down like firelight was currently closing its eyes, trying hard to stretch out its claws and push its eggshell bit by bit.

*Flutter, flutter... *

He Pingsheng could even feel the heartbeat of this little thing. ===== CHAPTER 387 =====
