737 Conflict
“Could it be that the Red Phoenix divine medicine is going to belong to the Steel King Strange Strength Bear Clan?” someone asked, all thoughts burning in his heart.
The Steel King Strange Strength Bear Clan Leader’s mouth curled up into a smile that almost reached the back of his head.
“Everyone, this old man is ashamed to accept this! But since the Red Phoenix divine medicine is intended to be mine with me, I’ll gladly accept it.”
“Humph, a villain is successful!” Hu Bailie, the general of the Huqin Empire, snorted and said disdainfully.
However, something unexpected happened. The golden egg stopped cracking and showed no signs of recovery.
“How could it be like this?” The old chief of the Steel King Strange Strength Bear Clan was dumbfounded and somewhat flustered.
Hu Bailie laughed out loud. “You think you can get the Red Phoenix divine medicine with ten million pounds of red pearls? You’re too naive.”
After saying that, he hugged the 15 million pounds of red pearls and imitated the Steel King Strange Strength Bear Clan Leader’s action just now, fusing a mouthful of his blood essence into the red pearls.
“Buzz!”
The 15 million pounds of red pearls immediately merged into the golden egg.
“Kachak!”
The golden egg cracked open once again, shooting out beams of dazzling divine light.
The medicinal fragrance was extremely rich, turning into wisps of green smoke that pounced on both ends of people’s noses.
“Haha! Steel King Strange Strength Bear Clan Leader, thank you for helping us!” Hu Bailie laughed loudly, and the entire world was filled with his laughter.
“Could it be that the Red Phoenix divine medicine only recognizes the blood essence of the person who made him break out of the shell?” Lu Benwei guessed.
“Very likely.” Liu Qinghe agreed as he took out the red pearl he was holding. 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝘦𝑤𝘦𝑏𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝘮
“Don’t be in a hurry. We’ll wait and see!” Lu Benwei suggested.
At the same time, his right eyelid twitched violently. He had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.
“I keep feeling that there’s something wrong with this, but I can’t put my finger on it.”
“Kacha kacha!”
A crack appeared on the top of the phoenix egg and gradually began to spread downward. However, when it reached the middle section, the crack stopped spreading.
Hu Bailie was also dumbfounded.
The old chief of the Steel King Strange Strength Bear Clan laughed loudly. “You’re too smart for your own good. How could the Red Phoenix divine medicine be interested in our red pearls?”
Seeing that Hu Bailie did not succeed, the old chief was even happier than if he had failed.
“Haha, since that’s the case, then I won’t be inferior!” The Great Peacock King laughed heartily and soared into the sky. Its feathers reflected a monstrous flame light. It was extremely gorgeous and dazzling.
A huge red pearl mountain appeared in the sky. The Great Peacock King hugged the mountain as he walked, fusing it into the Red Phoenix divine medicine.
Everyone was shocked.
“Wrong, it’s 30 million pounds!” someone who knew what was going on said.
“30 million pounds!” Everyone’s pupils contracted rapidly.
“Kacha kacha!”
The eggshell continued to crack, and the cracks deepened. The golden light became as bright as the sun in the sky.
The medicinal fragrance was extremely rich, lingering in everyone’s nostrils. Everyone’s hearts were in their throats as they looked nervously at the golden egg on the tree crown.
A Red Phoenix’s shadow was faintly discernible.
The Phoenix Blood Tree was covered in flames. Its branches and leaves were so huge that they covered all the mountains.
The crack spread to the bottom, and the world suddenly fell silent.
One second, two seconds, three…
After about three minutes, someone said in shock, “Don’t tell me that we still need the red pearls?”
Then, someone exclaimed, “Even 55 million pounds of red pearls couldn’t awaken the Red Phoenix divine medicine?”
“This guy is like a bottomless pit!”
However, victory was in sight, and the crack was about to reach the bottom.
“Boom!”
A person soared into the sky, carrying ten million pounds of red pearls across the sky. Just as he opened his mouth, he wanted to spit out his blood essence and fuse it into the red pearl.
“Bang!”
A figure rushed up. His palm became as big as a millstone. Then, he smashed the person’s body with his palm, and the soul source escaped.
“It’s you, Steel King Strange Strength Bear!” the man roared in anger.
“Thank you for your red pearls. To repay you, I won’t kill you.” The old chief of the Steel King Strange Strength Bear Clan licked his teeth, not feeling embarrassed at all.
After saying that, he stretched out his hand, wanting to grab the 10 million pounds of red pearls.
At this moment, the void trembled and an abyss rift opened.
A large dark purple hand gripped the ten million pounds of red pearls tightly from the depths of the hand.
“Old fart, let me tell you a story about our human race. The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!” Hu Bailie said mockingly.
A mouthful of blood essence was spat out and merged into the red pearl. The next step was to fuse the red pearl into the golden egg.
“You’re courting death!” The old chief of the Steel King Strange Strength Bear Clan was furious.
The huge hand slapped out and shattered the void.
The old chief was so strong that even its newborn clansmen could exert a force of ten thousand pounds! He was also an expert of a region. Smashing a mountain with his bare hands and shattering the void was nothing difficult.
“Even if I die today, don’t even think about having your way!”
However, at this moment, the golden egg once again burst out with dazzling golden light and shot up into the sky.
“Who is it?!” Hu Bailie was furious. He had never thought that he would be robbed.
That person chuckled. “General Hu taught me an old saying, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Then I’ll also teach you an old saying, when the snipe and clam fight, the fisherman will benefit!”
However, soon, his smile stopped.
The crack did not completely break to the bottom.
Someone shouted, “It probably only needs five million pounds of red pearls, right?”
Hence, everyone went crazy. The final battle had begun!
“The Red Phoenix divine medicine is mine!” Hu Bailie was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He launched a fierce attack on that man.
The man knew that he was no match for Hu Bailie, so he quickly retreated.
“You ruined my plan. Today, you’ll be punished and sentenced to death!”
He tore through the void with his bare hands and arrived in front of that person.
“Are you sure you want to attack me, General Hu?” The man laughed awkwardly.
“Although I’m not your match, I’m still enough for you to put in a lot of effort.”
“Are you sure that the Red Phoenix divine medicine won’t be taken away by others at that time?”
Hu Bailie cursed and turned back.
At the same time, Liu Qinghe saw that the dispute had started and asked, “Are we still going to continue watching?”
“Yes!” Lu Benwei looked at the dispute in the air and replied.
“The Red Phoenix divine medicine is about to be taken. If we don’t join now, we’ll be finished!” Ji Han said anxiously.
“Trust me, don’t act rashly.”
His brows were tightly knitted, and his right eyelid was twitching. Lu Benwei felt that something bad was about to happen but he could not tell exactly what it was.
