Li Zhiming carried out the giant egg that was half a person's height.
There was nothing in the tree trunk except the giant egg.
This gold-eating beast's egg is the greatest treasure here.
Just as Li Zhiming was holding the giant egg, he suddenly realized that the Gold-Devouring Technique was inexplicably operating.
"What's going on?"
Li Zhiming suppressed his agitated temper.
Just now, his Gold-Devouring Technique actually started to work on its own. This was so weird.
"Could it be that the Gold Devouring Art and the Gold Devouring Beast have some unknown connection?"
Li Zhiming was confused and sought help from his system.
[Gold Devouring Technique: Created based on the innate ability of the Gold Devouring Beast, the Gold Devouring Beast has a natural affinity for humans who practice the Gold Devouring Technique.]
A piece of information appeared in front of Li Zhiming.
Only then did he understand why the gold-eating beast's egg would directly conclude a soul contract with him.
It turned out to be because of the Gold Devouring Technique.
Speaking of which, he has a strong connection with the Xuantian Taoist Sect.

Li Zhiming's mind moved, and three panels appeared before his eyes.
With the system, he can intuitively see the information panel of his spirit pet, which is very convenient.
"Brother, what are you going to do with this egg?"
"Take it and have a look first. This is the egg of the ancient rare and precious gold-devouring beast. Its rarity has surpassed that of immortal-level skills. Once this thing is hatched, it will be an extremely powerful fighting force."
After Li Zhiming finished speaking, he put the giant egg into his beast-taming bag.
By the way, enough companion spirit golden milk and gold and fire demon cores were placed in it, which are all necessary for the growth of demon beasts.
"If Junior Brother fails to hatch, perhaps we can go to the Tang Empire's large auction. This egg should sell for a very good price, or we can exchange it for the resources Junior Brother wants."
Liang Meng gave Li Zhiming some advice.
"The Tang Empire..."
Li Zhiming pondered for a moment. As far as he could remember, there was also a prosperous and flourishing Tang Empire in the history of his country.
"Time is running out. Let's quickly collect herbs and spiritual plants before others enter here."
Li Zhiming said.
It was not until evening that the three of them gathered again under the tree.
"Sir, everything is here."
Zi Yue handed the soul bottles to Li Zhiming, and he filled the five bottles.
The same was true for Liang Meng. The soul bottle was filled with various precious herbs and spiritual plants, as well as several immortal items.
"Junior brother, there are so many good things in Medicine Valley."
Liang Meng wiped the sweat from her forehead. She was sweating from picking herbs.
"Let's go to the center of the lake."
“That’s where all the good stuff is.”
Li Zhiming put away the soul bottle and flew towards the lake in the center of the medicine valley.
Half an hour later.
The three of them came to the lake shore.
Although the seven-colored deer are all high-level monsters, they are gentle in nature, not very aggressive, and rarely take the initiative to attack other people or monsters.
When the five seven-colored deer heard the noise, they jumped away from the lakeside.
"Legend has it that the Seven-Colored Deer is extremely gentle. If you don't attack it, it won't hurt you. It is an extremely rare and gentle spiritual beast."
Liang Meng looked at the seven-colored deer that ran away and hid in the jungle, and replied softly.
After this verification, the rumors are true, the Seven-Colored Deer does have such a personality.
"Sir, there are dozens of immortal spiritual plants on the lakeside alone."
Zi Yue looked around and reminded.
"Um."
Li Zhiming nodded, took out the spirit bottle, and carefully put away these precious spiritual plants.
There was more than one plant of each type, but Li Zhiming was not greedy and kept some of each type.
After collecting all the herbs and spiritual plants on the shore, Li Zhiming observed the calm lake surface.
After he made sure there was no other smell in the lake, he took a deep dive and jumped into the lake.
Crash~
Three splashes of water appeared on the surface of the lake.
Li Zhiming and the other two swam towards the bottom of the lake. The water became colder and colder, and their vision became dimmer and dimmer.
Immediately, a pale golden barrier opened, wrapping the three people inside and illuminating the surroundings, isolating the biting cold in the water from outside.
"There's something wrong with this lake water. It's too cold."
Liang Meng replied.
When we went deep into the bottom of the lake just now, the water was extremely cold, as if we were in a world of ice and snow, cold and biting.
In addition, the pressure in the water was unusual, and even made her feel an extremely obvious sense of oppression.
You know, she is a second-grade strongman!
But now with the protection of Li Zhiming's barrier, he can no longer feel the coldness and pressure in the water.
"The Xuantian Dao Sect is a transcendent force from ancient times, stronger than the Taichu Holy Land. Medicine Valley is one of the cores of this level of sect. If the things inside are the same as those in the outside world, then there is really a problem."
Li Zhiming smiled.
He slowly landed on the ground and reached the bottom of the lake.
It is no exaggeration to say that the pressure and coldness at the bottom of the lake are enough to crush warriors below the fourth rank. Even a third rank warrior cannot stay there for long.
"Ziyue, did you find anything?"
Li Zhiming asked.
Zi Yue closed her eyes, her eyelashes were long and crystal clear, and they fluttered slowly twice.
Not long after, Zi Yue opened her eyes.
"Sir, follow me."
She turned around and swam in another direction.
Li Zhiming and Liang Meng followed closely behind.
After walking for a long time, Zi Yue finally stopped by.
"Sir, it's nearby."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhiming looked around.
The lake water was calm, without any impurities, as clean as a mirror, and there was not even a single fish.
It seems ordinary, but it reveals weirdness everywhere.
They should be in the center of the lake now.
There is nothing around, so the problem can only be at your feet.
Li Zhiming stomped his feet lightly, and the mud reached above his ankles before he touched a hard object.
"Um?"
Li Zhiming exerted force with his feet, and his true energy surged, directly blowing away a large piece of mud.
When the mud settled, the three people found that they were standing on neat stone slabs.
“Why are there slabs of stone at the bottom of the lake?”
“Is there still space underneath?”
Liang Meng looked puzzled.
Li Zhiming said nothing and exerted force again.
The stone slab actually flipped over and Li Zhiming fell directly down.
Seeing this, Zi Yue and Liang Meng also followed Li Zhiming's example and stomped hard on the stone slab under their feet.
The slab flipped over, and the two men disappeared to the bottom of the lake, sinking under the slab.
