Guarding a Tree to Wait for a Rabbit, Stealing Dragon Eggs!

It was another new day.

In the early morning, the Rising Sun rose, the Morning Glow sprinkled its brilliance, and strands of gentle sunlight slanted into the cave, waking Bai He from his sleep.

Slowly opening his eyes, Bai He got up from the pile of dry grass on the ground.

Turning his head, he saw Yan Qingcheng still sitting in meditation, cultivating. Wisps of hazy purple True Qi swirled around her like clouds, setting her off like a fairy descending to earth, ethereal and dreamlike. She was circulating the Undying Heavenly Art to heal her injuries!

It seemed that cultivators in the Realm of Longevity all used meditation to replace sleep. Yan Qingcheng was like this, and so was Xiao Chen, but Bai He, as a modern person, was still used to sleeping lying down.

Shaking his head, Bai He slowly walked out of the cave.

Outside the cave, the air was very fresh. Because the sun had just risen, the surrounding temperature was not too high, and the climate was still very cool.

Many low shrubs grew beside the cave. On their narrow leaves, crystal clear dewdrops rolled, scattering faint light under the illumination of the Morning Glow.

Bai He took a deep breath, stretched his muscles and bones that had been still all night, and then walked back into the cave.

He picked up a White Jade Rhino Horn nearly half a meter long from beside the pile of dry grass on the ground, and then turned to leave the cave. He was going to wash up by the lake.

'Bai He, where are you going?'

As if noticing that Bai He was about to leave, Yan Qingcheng, who was healing, opened her eyes and asked in a clear voice.

'I'm going to wash up by the lake. You should seize the time to heal. As for water, I'll bring it back for you!'

Bai He raised the White Jade Rhino Horn in his hand and waved it in the air, saying to Yan Qingcheng.

This White Jade Rhino Horn, nearly half a meter long, was an unexpected find that Bai He had made on the Grassland yesterday when he returned from exploring the Flame Hell Dragon Nest.

At that time, it was still growing on the skeleton of a White Jade Rhinoceros. After being discovered by Bai He, it was naturally cut off and taken back.

Leaving the cave, Bai He slowly walked towards the lake.

Although it was only early morning, many beast herds had already gathered by the lake, but most of them were herds of wild animals, such as ordinary deer, cattle, and elephants. As for Savage Beasts, they were rarely seen.

Bai He guessed that it might be because ordinary wild animals were weak and often at the bottom of the food chain on Dragon Island, so they had to rush to drink water before all the Savage Beasts came to the lake, because only in this way would they be safer.

If they waited until those powerful Savage Beasts had all arrived, it would be very likely that these ordinary wild animals would lose their lives at any time if they went to drink water.

But it was not absolutely safe at this time. Although the Savage Beasts on the Grassland had not arrived, there were also some Primordial Mythical Beasts living in the lake, such as... Divine Crocodiles!

Only when these ordinary wild animals drank water by the lake could these Divine Crocodiles, which were weak among the Savage Beasts, have a chance to eat their fill.

One after another, legless purple Divine Crocodiles leaped out of the water, opening their bloody mouths and dragging the wild animals drinking water by the lake into the lake. With a burst of turbulent waves, clusters of blood flowers exploded in the lake water.

Bai He went to the lake to wash up, then filled the White Jade Rhino Horn with water, put a wooden stopper on it, and turned to return to the cave.

As for the bloody storm being staged by the lake, he didn't want to watch it too much. He used to really like watching Animal World on Earth, but now he and the him at that time were already people from two different worlds!

In the blink of an eye, it was almost noon. Because the cave was still relatively cool, the Divine Crocodile corpse that had been placed in the cave last night had not deteriorated and was still edible.

The two simply ate a portion of roasted Divine Crocodile meat. Although it was not very tasty, as a Primordial Mythical Beast, the life essence contained in the Divine Crocodile meat was still very considerable, at least far exceeding ordinary wild animals such as lions, tigers, and elephants.

All morning, Bai He had been thinking about how to steal the Dragon Egg from the Scarlet Scale Savage Dragon Flame Hell Dragon Nest.

After a long period of anxious waiting and thinking, Bai He finally decided to steal the Dragon Egg when the Flame Hell Dragon went out hunting at dusk. This was also the best time to steal the egg!

After a period of anxious waiting, the sky finally began to turn yellow. Although it was not yet dusk, Bai He had already decided to go and 'Guard a Tree to Wait for a Rabbit' first.

After casually making an excuse to Yan Qingcheng, who was healing, Bai He turned and left the cave.

Bai He already knew the identity of the Grassland Overlord he had been wary of, which was the Flame Hell Dragon residing in the desolate mountains, far from here. Therefore, Bai He could safely unfurl his Undying Sky Wings here.

Quickly flying over the azure lake below, Bai He finally landed on a Gobi Desert at the foot of the desolate mountains, where he prepared to wait for the opportunity.

Quietly sitting in the shade behind a boulder, Bai He waited with both eagerness and excitement for the Flame Hell Dragon to go out hunting.

Gradually, it was already dusk, and the fiery clouds in the sky were burning brilliantly. The Flame Hell Dragon arrived as expected.

Accompanied by the violent tremors of the earth, a behemoth covered in dark red scales gradually appeared before Bai He's eyes. It was the Flame Hell Dragon!

Bai He forcibly suppressed the eagerness and restlessness in his heart, waiting for the Flame Hell Dragon to move away from its Dragon Nest.

According to what he had seen yesterday, the Flame Hell Dragon usually returned to its nest after eating its prey outside, so time was relatively sufficient for Bai He.

The huge shadow gradually moved away, and Bai He slowly poked his head out from behind the boulder, then spread his Undying Sky Wings and quickly flew towards the Dragon Nest.

Because he no longer had to traverse the various undulating hills, the Dragon Nest, located in a huge pit, appeared before Bai He in a short while.

In the Dragon Nest, constructed from countless dry trees, three millstone-sized scarlet jade Dragon Eggs emitted a brilliant glow. Bai He only picked one of them, after all, Heaven has the virtue of cherishing life!

With his six arms tightly holding the Dragon Egg, Bai He spread his wings and flew into the sky. He chose to enter the forest not far from the desolate mountains to refine the Dragon Egg, estimating that it should be the territory of another overlord-level Savage Dragon.

Finding a safe place, Bai He put down the Dragon Egg in his hand.

The Dragon Egg, as large as a millstone, lay quietly on the ground, and the scarlet jade-carved eggshell emitted bursts of brilliant glow, dazzling and beautiful.

Bai He used five hands to secure the Dragon Egg, and then used the bone spurs on his remaining arm to pierce a small hole in the eggshell, expanding it to the size of a palm.

Through the palm-sized hole, Bai He could clearly see the transparent egg white inside the Dragon Egg and the Dragon Essence that seemed to be burning flames. In the 'flames', a miniature version of the Flame Hell Dragon was roaring with its claws and teeth bared.

Forcefully picking up the Dragon Egg and slowly tilting it, the transparent egg white with a faint glow and the flame-like Dragon Essence immediately flowed out from the palm-sized hole and directly into Bai He's abdomen.

'Bang!'

Vigorous life essence rose from his abdomen, instantly flowing into Bai He's limbs and bones. However, the life essence contained within the Dragon Essence was too vast, and Bai He couldn't digest it for a while. Therefore, Bai He only felt his body begin to swell and ache, as if it was about to tear apart.

But Bai He didn't panic at all. He had experienced this situation several times, so he was very familiar with it!

'Roar!'

As if discovering that another Dragon Soul had invaded its territory, the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon Soul in Bai He's body suddenly came 'alive'. After roaring with its claws and teeth bared, the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon Soul rushed out of Bai He's body.

After quickly circling around Bai He once, the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon Soul roared again and rushed back into Bai He's body, fighting with the Flame Hell Dragon Soul that had just entered Bai He's body.

The Eight-Armed Evil Dragon Soul, which had undergone a transformation, was obviously much stronger than the Flame Hell Dragon Soul. The two dragons fought for a short time, and the Flame Hell Dragon Soul was torn into pieces by the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon Soul and then devoured.

After devouring the Flame Hell Dragon Soul, the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon Soul, which was as transparent as a silver light, suddenly 'burned'. After a burst of excited roars, the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon began to wander in Bai He's body.

As the Eight-Armed Evil Dragon Soul wandered, bursts of warm currents began to surge out from the flesh and blood, and then slowly flowed into Bai He's head. Bai He could clearly feel his head beginning to itch, as if something was about to grow out.

At the same time, Bai He had already begun to circulate the Heavenly Tablet Mystic Skill, and the vast life essence in his body was being frantically refined.

'Creak, creak...'

Accompanied by a burst of teeth-aching bone sounds, Bai He opened his eyes.

Slowly exhaling a mouthful of stale air, Bai He reached out and touched the top of his head, as if a pair of forked horns had grown there?!

Could it be that a pair of dragon horns really grew out of my head just now?

Bai He thought speechlessly in his heart, he really is getting closer and closer to becoming a dragon...

Bai He lowered his head to look at his feet again.

At the position of the Shangqiu Acupoint on the soles of his feet, a silver light spot the size of a grain of rice was emitting bursts of brilliant Morning Glow.
