A chilling warning came from the Sky Eye. Jiang Yuan held his breath and asked, "What do we do?"

"Transfer spiritual energy!" Heavenly Eye offered the fastest remedy.

Jiang Yuan didn't dare to be negligent. He pushed the little fat boy's hand away and said, "Leave the rest to me!"

"Was the battle pet contract successfully signed?" Little Fatty pressed his wound and asked in confusion, "Why can't I sense Youhuang's presence?"

"The contract has been successfully signed, but the battle pet inside is about to die!"

Jiang Yuan gave a brief explanation, then used one hand to transfer divine energy to the Phoenix Egg, while using the other hand to continuously take out Holy Spirit Stones from his personal space.

"Dead? What happened?!" Little Fatty looked puzzled.

"Get out of my way, all of you!" Jiang Yuan had no time to worry about anything else; his top priority was to save the dying Youhuang inside the monster egg.

"ah!"

"Retreat first!"

Yu Tu pulled the chubby boy away and comforted him, "Trust Jiang Yuan, he can handle it!"

At this moment, the Phoenix Egg was emanating a dense aura of death. If no remedial measures were taken, this one-in-a-million divine beast egg would die inside, and all previous efforts would be in vain.

Jiang Yuan's more than 400 points of divine energy disappeared in the blink of an eye. Even the few hundred points of divine energy he had stored in his Devourer over the past three days were completely gone. And the end of all that disappeared was this Nether Phoenix Egg.

"What is the origin of this Nether Phoenix? It can absorb so much energy even before it is born!"

Jiang Yuan was shocked, but now was clearly not the time to be shocked. He pushed with both hands, and the Holy Spirit Stones around him quickly surrounded the Phoenix Egg. Then, under his urging, all the Holy Spirit Stones shattered into powder, and the spiritual energy that emerged transformed into a long dragon that flew continuously toward the Phoenix Egg.

The ground was surrounded by a circle of ninth-tier holy spirit stones, a total of one thousand, but this number didn't even last a second.

"A bottomless pit!"

Jiang Yuan gritted his teeth and took out ten thousand ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones, ensuring the energy transmission could not be interrupted.

"this!"

Little Fatty was stunned by Jiang Yuan's actions. Who would have thought that such a small egg would have such a big appetite, absorbing thousands upon thousands of ninth-tier holy spirit stones.

"Bring out all the Holy Spirit Stones!" Seeing the urgency of the situation, Yu Tu took the lead and took out all his savings, a total of 30,000 ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones, and placed them on one side of the Youhuang Egg.

"oh!"

Little Fatty was always a beat slow to react; he only hurriedly grabbed the Holy Spirit Stone after the Rabbit had already taken it.

More and more Holy Spirit Stones were taken out. Apart from the 50,000 Holy Spirit Stones from Yu Tu and Xiao Pang, Jiang Yuan had already taken out 100,000. However, even so, the momentum of the Youhuang Egg absorbing energy had not slowed down. On the contrary, the Holy Spirit Stone powder on the ground had accumulated into a thick layer.

"Are they crazy?!" Jiang Yuan's heart began to waver. He didn't know if it was worth making such a sacrifice for an egg of unknown origin, or even one that might not survive.

"Brother Yuan, is this egg useless now?" Little Fatty also noticed something was wrong, because the egg's aura was getting weaker and weaker, and it was now almost a dead object.

"150,000 ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones, what a price..."

Jiang Yuan, who was wavering, was about to give up, but Yu Tu suddenly rushed over and pleaded, "No, wait for it!"

“The vitality is still waning, it seems…” Although Jiang Yuan was still taking out Holy Spirit Stones, he no longer held out much hope.

Spending so much money on a dead egg is already more than enough; the most sensible thing to do now is to cut your losses.

"Jiang Yuan, please don't give up on it!"

Yu Tu looked reluctant. She placed her hand on the eggshell and then poured all her energy into the egg.

"Why be so persistent!" Jiang Yuan said with a wry smile.

Yu Tu gritted his teeth and transmitted energy, saying as he did so, "Every innocent life that fights with all its might to survive deserves respect!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan sighed deeply. He silently took out Holy Spirit Stones, and in the blink of an eye, the number exceeded 50,000.

"Me too!" Little Fatty was deeply moved by An Xiaoyu's persistence. In fact, his feelings for An Xiaoyu were only superficial, but at this moment, he was deeply touched.

"Thank you!" Yu Tu turned around and said softly.

At this moment, An Xiaoyu, who had never used any seductive demeanor before, was far more charming in Jiang Yuan's eyes than ever before.

The addition of Desire Rabbit and Little Fatty was just a drop in the ocean; ten minutes later, all 50,000 Holy Spirit Stones were used up.

Before Yu Tu could speak, Jiang Yuan took out 50,000 ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones. Although his reason told him that there was no need to waste any more, he still had a protective instinct, even if it wasn't for the Youhuang Egg.

"This is the last time, I won't be willful anymore!" Yu Tu said disheartenedly, looking at the 50,000 ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones.

"Xiaoyu, I never expected you to be so devoted to my battle pet!" Little Fatty was almost moved to tears.

As soon as Little Fatty finished speaking, a sound of bone cracking rang in the ears of the three of them, and their eyes turned to the Phoenix Egg.

The next second, a melodious phoenix cry came from the egg, and the expressions on the three people's faces immediately became interesting.

"The egg is ready!"

After the phoenix's cry, a wisp of black fire spread from the void, and a phantom-like figure, like a chick, appeared in the flames.

The Phoenix Egg rises from the ashes, undergoing a rebirth from the brink of death.

"Is this the divine beast, the Nether Phoenix?!"

Jiang Yuan, possessing the Hand of Death, understood better than anyone how difficult it was for the Nether Phoenix Egg to hatch. An embryo without life had no chance of giving birth to a divine beast. Yet, the Nether Phoenix stubbornly relied on its boundless spiritual power to break through and stand upright.

"Why is it a chicken?!"

Little Fatty's devastating screams pulled Jiang Yuan out of his shock. He looked closely, and his expression immediately became quite interesting.

"Why is it a chicken?!" Little Fatty repeated in despair.
