Tomb raiding: Trying to become a little painter

"no!"

Zhang Qilin looked at the things that had suddenly appeared on the machine, his forehead covered in black lines, and even his usually cold and expressionless face cracked a little.

How could he not know that the gate he was guarding could lay eggs!

"Wow! It's the familiar Zhang family Qilin bloodline~ Wait... something's not right, how can it be a pure Qilin?! And there's a Pixiu too... Wait, is my world going crazy? It wasn't like this before..."

Suddenly, in mid-air, a ball of light transformed into a three- or four-year-old bald boy wearing a red bib. The boy made a stunning entrance by floating, followed by a silly-sounding speech...

"Little brat! You're perfectly fine!!"

"If you don't give me a proper explanation, I'll kill you today and become the rule-maker!"

Qin Henian listened to the familiar voice and scanned the little child floating down from the sky several times, finding that the child appeared to be perfectly fine.

"Hey! Little Crane! You're here! Someone's bullying me!"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Xiao Tiandao abandoned his observation of the other two and immediately focused his gaze on Qin Henian.

With a pained expression on his face, he shuffled his legs around quickly, ran to Qin Henian, grabbed his leg, and started wailing...

"Little Crane! A while ago, a super handsome man came to my place. I originally thought he was... Waaah... I thought he was looking for immortality, and I was just about to negotiate with him... but then... waaah..."

"Then... that person knocked me unconscious right away. When I woke up, there was a red egg and two pieces of meteorite jade on my 'kang' (heated brick bed)... I originally thought the energy of the meteorite jade was for me... but look how big this egg is... Waaah... I raised these... It's bad enough that it absorbed the energy of the meteorite jade, but it also absorbed a lot of my energy... Who can afford to raise these! But I don't want to raise them, but I can't help it. This egg keeps tugging at me, waaaah... If this keeps up, it'll break apart!"

"Little Crane! Please save me, my adorable self, sob sob..."

Heaven is crying out! Heaven is wronged...

Zhang Qilin and Hei Xiazi, who stood and listened to the whole process, felt that their worldviews had shattered once again.

They had seen the newly born Heavenly Dao of this world in the past, but it had ignored them. They hadn't come for the Heavenly Dao itself, but rather for a coffin on the altar.

The coffin is gone, and a giant egg has appeared in its place.

"Alright, stop pulling me and stop crying. I'll go up with Little Qilin and the blind man to take a look first!"

After listening to Xiao Tiandao's rambling narration and absorbing the main points, Qin Henian kicked the annoying guy away, took two steps back, and grabbed one of them with each hand, pulling Hei Xiazi and Zhang Qilin along. Transparent blue-purple fire feathers appeared behind him, and he flew towards the top of the altar.

Once their feet touched the stone platform and they were steady, the three of them began to examine the giant egg that had been left behind.

"This egg looks familiar... It's so big and red, I wonder if it will taste good when it's cooked."

His mind raced. With the light, Hei Xiazi first took off his sunglasses and looked at the large red egg on the altar carved with all living things. As he looked at it, his mouth started to water, and his demeanor suddenly changed.

Hearing the absurd talk from the side, Zhang Qilin was a little afraid of the contagious stupidity. He took a few steps away from the blind man who was starting to "go crazy" again and began to observe on his own.

This aura... does seem somewhat familiar, but after two trials and tribulations through the realm within a realm, Qin Henian's memory is a bit stuck, and he can't quite recall what kind of egg this is.

However, Qin Henian was certain that this was a mythical beast egg, but he was a bit confused about what kind of beast it was. In ancient times, many beast eggs were multicolored, with gold, black, red, and all sorts of colors. This sudden appearance of an egg really puzzled him.

Unable to find out whose egg it was, or who put it here! Anyway, the egg needs energy, so Qin Henian decided to test the waters.

Raising a finger, Qin Henian poked at the giant egg, channeling his magic power. Instantly, the red giant egg began to shake violently. Qin Henian withdrew his hand in surprise, and the giant egg stopped shaking.

"This egg also absorbs magic power. Little Qilin, Blind Man, you two give it a try!"

Qin Henian made the suggestion.

"Alright! The blind man will give it a try!"

Hei Xiazi also saw Qin Henian's previous actions. He raised his palm and made the same move to bring it close and transfer energy. But this time, the red giant egg didn't move at all, not even a little bit.

"Tsk! This egg is picky! The blind man's energy couldn't be channeled in; it all came back!"

Sensing the giant egg's resistance, Hei Xiazi withdrew his hand, tilting his head to look at Zhang Qilin, wondering if the other's energy was the same as his own, and whether he also wanted the egg...

Sensing a burning gaze, Zhang Qilin didn't waste any words and raised his palm to channel energy. However, as soon as the power was guided from his palm to the outside of the eggshell, it was bounced back by the giant egg. It was clear that Zhang Qilin had received the same treatment as Hei Xiazi; the giant egg didn't want his power.

"How is it? Little Qilin?"

After Qin Henian realized that Hei Xiazi's power could not be inputted, information about a beast suddenly flashed through his mind, but he was not sure, so Qin Henian turned his attention to Zhang Qilin.

"no!"

Zhang Qilin shook his head, indicating that he, like Hei Xiazi, could not channel his power into the giant egg.

Qin Henian didn't say anything after hearing the same answer as Hei Xiazi. He raised his finger and poked at the giant egg again, this time increasing the power of his magic. He wanted to see whose egg it was! They've all been thrown here.

As the power surged forth, the giant red egg began to shake violently again. A few minutes later, cracking sounds rang out from the top of the egg, and the shell began to crumble into powder from top to bottom. A red light flickered dimly inside the egg. As the shell completely disappeared, the red light dispersed and transformed into an icy blue "adult" phantom of an ice phoenix.

Boo!

A sharp, chilling beastly roar rang out, and frost instantly began to freeze inside the bronze door.

Upon seeing this, Qin Henian and the other two quickly released their beastly pressure, shaking off the roar of the ice phoenix.

"Hidden Phoenix! It's you! It's definitely you... This familiar aura... Back in the Celestial Clan, it was you who sent me here!"

"You shameless old man! I've been so good to you, and you actually disturbed my cultivation tribulation!"

Qin Henian looked at the familiar phoenix and smelled the familiar scent, and suddenly burst into laughter in anger. With a cold smile on his face, he started cursing without any regard for his image.

The beast that was being scolded opened its eyes and stared at Qin Henian's every move. It saw the angry man jump up and down and transform into a handsome young man dressed in exotic clothes.

"I'm sorry, A-He! Forgive my selfishness, you know I love you!"

Cang Feng did not deny what he had done, but now even if Qin Henian wanted to return to the world where he had trained before, it would be impossible. He had gone to great lengths to send the person into this world, and the reason why the other party could not contact the previous small world was because he had already destroyed that small world. This world is very good now, and it is very suitable for him to recover his strength and then fall in love.

"Heh...tui! Retreat, retreat, retreat! Where did this demon come from, daring to impersonate the Ice Phoenix? It's terrifying!"

Upon hearing Cang Feng's mindless remarks, Qin Henian's first thought was that he couldn't let this guy smear his innocence.

Secondly, I didn't want Zhang Qilin and Hei Xiazi to misunderstand.
