Just then, the little white fox fished out the eggshell from the Lingquan Pool.
"Master, this eggshell seems unusual. The aura on it is very strong and somewhat familiar. Where have I seen it before? Why can't I remember it?" The little white fox murmured.
Mu Li took the eggshell and examined it carefully.
"There seem to be some mysterious patterns on this eggshell." Mu Li said in surprise.
When the little turkey chick saw the eggshell, he suddenly became energetic.
"Mummy, give me food, eat!" cried the little turkey chick.
Mu Li handed the eggshell to it, and the little turkey chick swallowed the eggshell bite by bite.
In an instant, a dazzling light emanated from the little turkey chick.
After the light disappeared, the appearance of the little turkey chick changed.
Its body has become much larger, its feathers are more colorful, and a small fleshy crest has grown on its head.
"This... is this still my cub? It turns out to be a big rooster!" Mu Li said in surprise.
"I'm not a rooster!" The little turkey chick called happily a few times, and then spit out a ball of fire.
"Oh my, it can actually spit fire! Be careful!" Mu Li quickly dodged, "Is it still uncomfortable now, little one?"
"Mom, I feel much better," said the little turkey chick.
"It seems that this eggshell is very important to you." Mu Li suddenly realized.
"Yes, the eggshell contains very important energy that our Phoenix clan needs for growth. This energy can help us better absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and improve our cultivation. At the same time, the eggshell also contains a mysterious power that can make our bodies stronger and resist attacks from foreign enemies. So, the eggshell is very important to us Phoenixes. Without it, we can't grow up healthily, and we can't become real phoenixes." The little turkey chick said a lot.
"What? Phoenix?" These were the only two words left in Mu Li's mind.
"Mom, I'm a phoenix, not a turkey or a rooster!" said the little phoenix proudly.
Mu Li's eyes widened as she stared at the little turkey chick in disbelief. "You're actually a phoenix? I always thought you were just an ordinary chick!"
The little phoenix snorted, "Mom, you're so ignorant! I'm a noble phoenix!"
Mu Li smiled awkwardly: "I was wrong. I didn't expect my cub to be so powerful."
At this time, the Nine Nether Butterfly flew over and said, "Master, since the little phoenix has an extraordinary status, we must train it well."
Mu Li nodded: "That's right, but this little guy just made a mess of the space, so we need to clean it up."
Little Phoenix lowered his head in embarrassment: "Mom, I won't do it again."
"Baby, you see, I'm still a baby too. Why don't you call me sister from now on?" Mu Li suggested.
"But you are the mother!" Little Phoenix asked puzzledly.
"Master, I know. This is called the nestling complex. It will regard the first person it sees after breaking out of the shell as its father or mother!" said the little white fox.
"But I'm too young to be a mother." Mu Li frowned.
"Baby, can you follow us and call us master from now on?" The Nine Nether Butterfly said softly.
"What about mom?" Little Phoenix looked at Mu Li.
"Mom is still young and can't be a mother. Can we all call her master?" The Nine Nether Butterfly continued to coax.
"Then why do you call me master?" asked the little phoenix puzzled.
"Because we have all signed a soul contract with the master, so we will never be separated in this life." Although the voice of the Nine Nether Butterfly was childish, it gave people a sense of peace of mind.
"Wow... I don't want to be separated from my mother. I want to stay with her for the rest of my life! I want to sign a soul contract!" cried the little phoenix.
"Master, this..." The Nine Nether Butterfly had the illusion of making a naughty child cry.
"It's okay. It's normal for children to cry." Mu Li gave her a reassuring look and picked up the little phoenix on the ground. "Be good, don't cry."
"Woo woo woo... Master!" The little phoenix finally stopped calling for mother.
"Okay, I'm here. I won't leave you." Mu Li touched the little phoenix's head and comforted it.
"Then I want to sign a soul contract like them!" Little Phoenix said loudly.
"Okay, okay, come on, come on." Mu Li felt inexplicably guilty about kidnapping a child...
The little phoenix happily pecked Mu Li's finger, letting Mu Li's blood drip onto its forehead.
In an instant, light burst out.
The little phoenix's forehead shone with a dazzling red light, like a burning flaming gem. A faint flame symbol also appeared between Mu Li's eyebrows.
Mu Li felt a strange energy flowing between her and the little phoenix, as if a special connection had been established between them.
Joy and gratitude were revealed in the little phoenix's eyes. It rubbed its head gently against Mu Li's palm to show affection.
"Master!" the little phoenix shouted happily.
"Baby!" Mu Li was also very happy.
"Okay, stop being so annoying and clean up the space!" The little white fox said in a disastrous tone.
Just as they were about to clean up the space, the space suddenly shook.
"What's going on?" Mu Li frowned.
A flash of light passed by, and a mysterious old man appeared in front of them.
The old man looked at the little phoenix, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "I didn't expect to see a phoenix cub here."
Mu Li looked at the old man warily: "Who are you?"
The old man smiled slightly and said, "Don't be nervous, little girl. I'm just a cultivator passing by. This phoenix cub is destined to be with me. I can give you some pointers."
