Chapter 878: Snake Eggs, Disaster, and Jigsaw Puzzle of Heaven and Earth
Chapter 878: Snake Eggs, Disaster, and Jigsaw Puzzle of Heaven and Earth
There are many people who share the same idea as Fang Xiao.
At this time, the center of the trade fair was surrounded by crowds of people, and there was no way out.
If you want to get closer, you may have to wait for a long time.
However, Fang Xiao only stopped at the periphery and had no intention of going forward.
Just because he was here, he could see the situation in the center clearly.
On the high platform, four cultivators in the late Void Refinement stage stood in four directions, their eyes scanning the surrounding cultivators like hawks.
'Even in the Immortal City, the Xuan family is so vigilant. It seems that this treasure is very unusual.'
Fang Xiao's gaze passed over the Void Refining Monk guarding the platform and fell directly on the center, on the tray hanging in the air.
However, to his surprise, the treasure on the first day was actually a demon beast egg.
This egg is the size of a fist and is black and purple all over, but at the same time it is covered with countless tiny golden lines. It is mysterious and noble and looks extremely extraordinary.
The stone tablet next to it also records the specific information of this demon beast egg.
Rumor has it that there is an extremely rare demon snake in the demon world, and its name is the Wanjie Purple-Striped Snake.
This snake was born with the ability to devour calamity force, and its strength is extremely strong.
If one advances to the Void Refining Stage and possesses the power of the Dao, his strength will undergo a drastic change, and he will be almost invincible among the same level.
The last time the spirit world and the demon world started a great war, a purple-striped snake with a cultivation level that reached the peak of the refining void realm appeared on the battlefield.
His strength was so great that he could roam the battlefields of all realms, and the number of human cultivators who fell at his hands was countless.
However, no matter how powerful he was, he was eventually framed by the Xuan family and besieged by a large number of refining cultivators, and ultimately died here.
And this demon beast egg was obtained from the belly of the Wanjie Purple Striped Snake.
But according to records, the eggs of the Wanjie Purple-striped Snake should have purple stripes on a blue background, but this egg has a purple background with gold stripes.
Either the paternity of this egg is very unusual, and its bloodline is so powerful that it is definitely not inferior to that of the Wanjie Purple-Striped Snake.
Or there is a one in a million mutation.
But no matter which situation it is, its potential will definitely surpass that of the Wanjie Purple Snake.
It is said that it is impossible for the Xuan family to release such a creature, and incubating and cultivating it by themselves is the most correct choice.
But therein lies the crux.
This egg was obtained by laparotomy and was not laid normally, so it is also congenitally defective.
After being dug out, the vitality inside it continued to dissipate. The Xuan family paid a huge price for this, but they could only maintain the life of the egg.
After so many years of continuous attempts, they found that they could not hatch it at all, and they even had to continuously invest in rare materials and treasures to maintain its life.
Even the Mahayana forces, after investing so much but seeing no returns, felt overwhelmed.
Therefore, after internal discussions, the Xuan family decided to sell it.
Whether others have the ability to hatch it or use it as some kind of material is none of their business.
Just using this bottomless pit to recover part of the losses failed.
After the monks present learned that it was the egg of the Ten Thousand Tribulations Purple-Striped Serpent, they were all extremely excited, and greed and possessiveness flashed in their eyes.
You should know that the power of calamity is a force of the same level as the power of the Dao.
Although it is weak when it is born, as long as it can continue to grow, the sixth level is just a starting point.
It really has endless potential.
However, after seeing that it could not be hatched, the cultivators' burning hearts gradually cooled down.
Especially to continuously provide vitality.
How could an ordinary Void Refiner possibly achieve this? This has already discouraged more than 90% of people.
But even so, some people still choose to fight.
After all, if it is used as a material, perhaps some elixirs with special effects or treasures with special abilities can be refined.
Of course, there are also people who think that they are the destined protagonists, and the snake eggs cannot hatch because they have not met them.
Everyone stepped forward and placed a secret bet according to their own psychological price.
And this naturally includes Fang Xiao.
However, Fang Xiao is different from these two types of people. He was fighting for the egg because he really discovered something unusual.
'This is really rare, to actually possess the power of calamity by nature.'
That’s right, what Fang Xiao saw was not only the power of calamity, but also the power of luck similar to that of Zhong Wuhuo.
Zhong Wuhuo is blessed with good fortune, everything goes smoothly for him, and he is blessed when times are tough. In the final analysis, this is also a kind of power of luck.
According to his understanding of Tao, the power of calamity and the power of luck are two sides of the same coin.
Just like life and death, yin and yang...
The two are contradictory to each other, yet neither is indispensable.
This is the way of disaster.
And the snake egg in front of me, which has not yet hatched, actually contains the power of disaster.
Does that mean that as long as we find a way to make it be born and cultivate it to the sixth level, we will be able to naturally master the projection of the path of disaster, or the real path?
Although in its manifestation, it is the entanglement of calamity force and luck force, it is not the power of the Tao.
But this is an existence that can completely reach the same level.
When Fang Xiao was going through the tribulation before, the small world also absorbed a lot of tribulation power, but it was still unable to give rise to any tribulation.
Originally, he wanted to place his hopes on Zhong Wuhuo, and wait for him to grow up in the future, and then use the small world to devour some of his luck and power.
This brings about the birth of the path of disaster.
But Fang Xiao was not sure whether it would succeed.
However, the appearance of this snake egg now makes this goal more likely to be achieved.
Don't think that Fang Xiao has to go to so much trouble just to deal with a mere disaster.
But you have to know that this is where the little world is most incomplete.
Fang Xiao used the small world to avoid disasters several times and discovered this serious problem.
The hijacker.
Disaster is fate, and luck is destiny.
The former is a fixed number, which includes birth, aging, sickness and death, as well as disasters from heaven and earth.
The latter is a variable. The so-called eliminating disasters and resolving difficulties, and changing fate against the will of heaven, is nothing more than this.
Therefore, the path of disaster is also related to many elusive principles such as life and death, destiny, cause and effect, etc.
Of course, even without Fang Xiao’s intervention, these avenues would gradually appear.
But how long it will take is difficult to predict.
Although the small world has been growing continuously and there have been signs of the birth of life on Earth, it has always stagnated there without any new progress.
Fang Xiao gradually realized that it was not that the heaven and earth could not give birth to life, but that there was something wrong with the heaven and earth, and it was stuck at a certain point and could not proceed.
Therefore, he wanted the small world to be like the big world, giving birth to all kinds of races, and completing the world was the top priority.
To Fang Xiao, the small world is like an incomplete puzzle.
All he needs to do is create fragments in order to piece together as much as possible.
Of course, the puzzle may seem messy, but this is a puzzle called heaven and earth, and who has the correct answer?
All Fang Xiao could do was to refer to another more complete puzzle.
