The Talented Doctor 33 Eggy Needs Spiritual Influence

Immediately, Eggy's tears turned to smiles as her child-like voice was filled with happiness again. "Mother, you're so nice. I love Mother the most!"

When she felt the child-like soul's deep dependence and genuine feelings for her, there was a pang in He Xi's heart. She felt much closer to the strange being.

She caressed the warm eggsh.e.l.l and asked, "Eggy, will you always maintain this… gigantic egg structure? Will you break out from it?"

Eggy said, "Baby… Oh, of course, Eggy will break out from the sh.e.l.l! Just that, it's pretty troublesome to come out."

"How is it troublesome?"

"Eggy needs spiritual influence… a lot! A lot of spiritual influence."

An idea popped in He Xi's head as she suddenly remembered the item she took from Zhu Zhongba.

When she was by the fountain, she was checking the loots and realized that she could not open them with her internal energy. However, when she absorbed the spiritual power from the fountain, she could open the items.

Even though the spiritual power could not be stored in her dantian, the amount of spiritual power flowing through her meridians at the moment was sufficient to open the store box.

He Xi poured out more than half of the items from the store box in front of the gigantic egg. "Eggy, are these items useful to you?"

When she finished her sentence, she saw the golden light around the gigantic egg flas.h.i.+ng quickly and had sucked up all the items on the floor.

He Xi was stunned, and before she could say anything, she saw the bunch of flying swords and spirit stones—that were originally filled with spiritual influence—turn gray and dusty. With a gentle touch, the items turned into dust.

A happy child-like voice sounded from the gigantic egg. "Mother, it's really tasty, but I'm not full. I still want some more."

He Xi recovered from her senses, and when she saw the floor of dust, she felt a pain in her heart.

Now, she was very poor, and these items that she took from Zhu Fatty would have most likely been her saving straw. Now that Eggy had taken more than half of it, this… this made her heart hurt.

Upon seeing the golden light going to suck up the items in her hands, He Xi hurriedly hid them in her sleeves and said with a straight face, "Eggy, next time without my permission, you're not allowed to eat any spiritual Dharma treasure. If you don't listen to me, I won't give you anything to eat anymore. Do you hear me?"

The golden light moved in the air, showing that Eggy was unwilling; but she still agreed obediently. Seeing Eggy's agreement, He Xi heaved a sigh of relief and took out the remaining items from the box.

A gray, palm-sized, hexagonal furnace; a few elixirs that were exuding a clean fragrance; a few low-quality spars, and an average-looking gem box.

There were no flying swords, enchanted armaments, or even a high-quality spirit stone. When He Xi thought of the treasures Eggy sucked up previously, her heart throbbed even more.

However, it was too late.

He Xi sighed and opened one of the gem boxes, and she found that there was a green plant in it. The green leaves looked like it was about to wilt, but they still exuded a strong spiritual influence.

"What is this?" It looked like a spiritual plant, but He Xi did not seem to have seen it before.

"I know, I know!" Eggy fought to answer. "This is a Bodhi flower that flowers in a thousand years and produces fruits in ten thousand years. The Bodhi fruit that it produces can strengthen one's soul power and tastes very good. However, it's not even a hundred-years-old and would be a pity to eat it. Mother, you can put the plant in the s.p.a.ce, and Eggy can suck some spiritual influence from it."
