I picked up the scattered attributes

And after this period of rest, his magical power has recovered to the point that he can unleash another strike!

"What are you going to do to this old man—"

The usually arrogant Tie Dan finally showed a hint of panic: "I'm warning you! My origins are beyond your imagination! If you cause me to be prematurely born again, I'll search the heavens and the underworld for you..."

A magnificent and vast burst of sword light erupted, incredibly stunning and glorious, instantly cleaving through the void and illuminating the distant sky!

It was as if a ferocious giant was wielding a sword towards the sky, charging forward relentlessly, fighting to the death and never returning!

"What the hell-"

Tie Dan suddenly let out a shrill scream.

Then, the screams turned into a tearful, furious outburst: "Grandpa's going to have a premature birth again—"

Click!

Tiny cracks spread at an astonishing speed across the slightly metallic eggshell, reaching every corner of the shell in an instant.

Feng Xia grinned, raised the hilt of the Jinghua Sword, and conjured another light hammer, which he then slammed down hard.

"Fellow Daoist in the egg, I, Feng, have come to help you overcome your tribulation and be born, seeing how difficult your cultivation has been!"

Click click click click——

Finally, the cracked iron egg could no longer hold on, and the cracks suddenly exploded, turning into fragments that flew everywhere. At the same time, a black shadow shot out from the broken eggshell like a bullet!

"You brat! You caused my premature birth! I'll haunt you to the ends of the earth and never let this go unpunished..."

"Fellow."

Feng Xia sheathed his sword and stood there, his expression calm and serene. He said casually, "What did you give birth to prematurely?"

In fact, although Feng Xia appeared calm on the surface, she was actually thinking "Holy crap!" in her heart.

—What popped out of the broken iron egg... damn it, it was still an egg!

Similar to the previous case, after these two hatchings, the egg was smaller again, and the patterns on the eggshell were more mysterious and intricate, with more metallic luster on the surface. From a distance, it looked more like a metallic pill!

"My egg! You broke my eggshell! And you still say... huh?"

The words were only halfway through when Tie Dan 2.0's voice abruptly stopped.

It was utterly astonished to discover that even though it had been born for the third time... it was still an egg!

"Something's not right! Something's really not right!" It suddenly started spinning around. "Three times! This is the third time already! Why is it still just an egg, Grandpa?!"

While premature birth does indeed have various negative effects, with the means he possesses, eliminating those effects and laying the foundation for becoming the strongest is not difficult.

However, things have now taken a turn for the better than expected.

It hatched three times, but it was still an egg. As the number of hatchings increased, the egg became smaller, but its hardness and strength continued to increase!

"If...if I'm born again...and I'm still an egg..."

The thought of a certain possibility caused Iron Egg 2.0 to tremble involuntarily a few times.

The egg is getting smaller and smaller, and the shell is getting harder and harder...

If this happens a few more times, won't it completely turn into a metal particle?

"Damn it! Damn it! There must be something wrong with that secret technique! I've probably been scammed!" Iron Egg 2.0 finally realized the key to the problem. "That's it! I was wondering why that guy would be so kind as to give me a secret technique for free. I never expected there to be a huge trap inside!"

What panicked it even more was...

With his current strength, it seems he can no longer break through the enhanced eggshell!

"To break the eggshell, you need external force, but external force will only make the eggshell harder... Damn it, that old man surnamed Luo is definitely not finished with you—"

"Um... fellow Daoist."

Feng Xia stood to the side, squinting, carefully examining the strange egg. At the same time, out of the corner of his eye, a large number of invisible orbs of light quietly rolled down.

Feng Xia's pupils suddenly contracted.

[Azure Dragon Bloodline] ×30.

[Fragment of "The Great Sigh of the Ancestral Dragon"] ×98.

[Essence] ×198.

【Shen Yuan】×6.

When Feng Xia saw those attribute-related light clusters, he almost thought he was hallucinating.

So many?!

Too much!

There were so many that he felt as if he were in a dream!

Previously, the number of orbs dropped by his attribute ability was at most two or three, but this time, not only were there double-digit numbers, but there were even triple-digit numbers!

"Could it be that Reality Online, that trashy mobile game, is launching a seasonal event?"

Feng Xia murmured involuntarily.

He originally thought that the higher the target's cultivation level, the more and richer the loot would be.

However, it seems that this rule may need to be slightly modified: the target's cultivation level does not necessarily have to be very high, but it can be at an extremely high level, which may still result in an astonishing drop!

"That's right, the origin of this iron egg is quite mysterious. Ordinary demonic beasts still in their eggs wouldn't have this level of intelligence, nor would they possess strength close to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator..."

"And this 'Ancestral Dragon's Great Sigh Technique' is something I don't know what it is. It absorbed a full 98 fragments, but it still feels like I've only scratched the surface..."

Based on the events of the previous close combat, Feng Xia made a judgment immediately:

The origin of this iron egg is definitely extraordinary!

Let's get it!

Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "You seem quite troubled. Do you need me to help you out?"

As he spoke, he brandished the pig-slaughtering knife in his hand.

"Hey, no, no, no! Fine, I'm scared of you, okay?!" Iron Egg 2.0 immediately panicked. "Stop moving! Stop moving! Put away your knife! If you stab me again, I'll probably have a difficult birth instead of a premature one..."

"Oh?"

Feng Xia gathered a wisp of magic power, but did not stop there. Instead, he looked at Tie Dan 2.0 indifferently and asked, "Was the chaotic tide of demonic beasts over Beiwang Cliff created by you, fellow Daoist?"

Sensing the terrifying, earth-shattering aura, Tie Dan felt as if he were being pricked by thorns. He hurriedly jumped up and down a few times, replying, "It wasn't me! I didn't do anything! I was just training my mother to stimulate her true dragon bloodline to awaken, so that I could comfortably be a second-generation dragon after I was born..."

Feng Xia: "?"

Why is it that what this egg says seems reasonable at first glance, but upon closer listening, every sentence is nonsense and completely illogical?

"Okay, I'll ask another question."

Shaking his head helplessly, Feng Xia asked again, "What are your plans next, fellow Daoist?"

He waved the butcher knife in his hand with a warm smile.

……

Chapter 0130

"No, no, no, please stop swinging that knife!"

Seeing Feng Xia's actions, Tie Dan's eggs almost turned green: "If you give me another..."

Feng Xia: "Hmm?"

"...If you do that to me again...if you do that to my little brother again, I'm afraid I'll really have a difficult birth! I've been ambushed, and the eggshell will get harder and harder. If I can't come out, I'll probably die inside the egg!"

Tie Dan 2.0 changed his tune in an instant.

Feng Xia raised his eyebrows. According to the pattern he had observed from cracking the egg, it was indeed as Tie Dan had said. If this guy were to have its shell cracked a few more times, it might never be born!

"But you still haven't said anything, fellow Daoist..."

After a moment's thought, Feng Xia turned and asked with a smile, "What exactly are you doing here?"

His smile was like a gentle breeze, as if sunshine were falling upon him, but the moment they made contact, Tie Dan felt a sudden shiver.

"This guy's smile...it's so sinister!"

A series of uneasy thoughts flashed through his mind. Tie Dan coughed habitually and chuckled, "Fellow Daoist, you don't know this, I'm just an ordinary demon beast egg. It was only due to some accidents that I awakened my intelligence ahead of schedule. What I said just now was actually just me joking with you..."

"Oh, it was just a joke." Feng Xia raised his hand and chuckled, looking like he had just realized something. "I thought you were some kind of descendant of the Azure Dragon. Looks like I was overthinking it."

"!!"

"And what about the Ancestral Dragon's Sigh..."

"Who...who are you?!"

Feng Xia continued speaking with a smile, seemingly chatting and laughing with an old friend. However, a simple sentence filled Tie Dan with endless horror.

Logically speaking, it was a top secret buried deep in its heart, and it had never told even its mother in this life, that lord-level blue python, a single thing!

However, at this very moment, its greatest secret in this life was revealed by a human!

"who am I?"

Feng Xia raised his hand and twirled his sword, then smiled calmly and said, "You should know who I am, fellow Daoist, right?"
