A breeze swayed the leaves, releasing waves of beautiful sounds like the zither.
Bai Chen Feng took in a deep breath. The spirit energy density in the air could nearly be described as droplets. This was a land of treasure, if it was placed outside of here, many people would have fought till the blood flowed.
Yet this place was silent and peaceful. If he had not brought Little Yan today, this place would likely continue to be forgotten.
After detecting the spirit energy within this valley, the egg started to shake in Bai Chen Feng arms, as though it was complaining to him.
Bai Chen Feng immediately woke up from his thoughts and consoled the egg by lightly patting. Speaking with a gentle voice, “Little Yan, we are here. Don’t be afraid, I will quickly hatch you.”
The egg quiets down.
Bai Chen Feng heaved a sigh of relief. Little Yan was considerably active ever since they entered the valley. Before this, she would not display any reactions for ten days to half a month. Yet she has moved twice ever since they came. Looks like this was the right place to be.
However, it was always good to be cautious. Even though Bai Chen Feng confirmed this place to be the land where the phoenix underwent rebirth, he cannot be relaxed.
If anything happened to Little Yan in her current state, he would never forgive himself.
After consoling the energetic egg, Bai Chen Feng prudently inspects the environment of the valley.
He had only taken a couple of steps to move away from the mountain hole to check the Mulberry Tree when the egg in his arms became restless. It rolled about in his arms restlessly before it slipped out of Bai Chen Feng.
Shock and panic filled Bai Cheng Feng’s eyes as he watched the egg fell and landed onto the mountain rocks. Yet, nothing happened. The egg shook a couple of times before rolling itself towards the mountain hole.
Seeing that the egg was unhurt and could even roll by itself, the trace of fear in Bai Chen Feng dissipated. He slowly followed behind the egg, not knowing if he should laugh or cry.
Come to think of it. This land of rebirth must have a great attraction towards phoenixes. Little Yan was only an egg, yet it knew to roll towards the mountain hole which was known to be the incubation area.
The size of the egg was not big while its round body made the rolling motion it perform looked laborious.
Bai Chen Feng tried to carry the egg again but was rejected by this firm willed egg.
Without any other choice, Bai Chen Feng could only watch with a smile as the egg roll backwards three steps with every step forward. Until she became stuck between two rocks and could no longer move.
Only then, did Bai Chen Feng approach and used his finger to tap the eggshell, “Now you know you are wrong?”
The egg did not react, acting as though it was dead.
Bai Chen Feng carefully carried the egg and used his sleeves to wipe off the dirt on the eggshell before walking towards the mountain hole.
The closer he was to the hole, the hotter it became. The hot air eventually forced Bai Chen Feng to circulate his spirit energy to shield himself from the heat. Beads of sweat the size of beans started rolling off his forehead. At the same time, his clothes became instantly soak in sweat but soon became dry as it evaporated into steam.
The closer Bai Chen Feng approached, the stronger his blood and spirit energy started to boil. At that moment, the egg in his arms became energetic again. As though it was very unsatisfied with Bai Chen Feng slowing his pace.
The egg hopped in his arms a few times before using the moment when Bai Chen Feng was distracted by the heat to leap off his arms and towards the direction of the hole.
Bai Chen Feng stretched his hand subconsciously in an attempt to grab the egg when he saw the egg stabilized in mid-air.
