Currently, Yun Wu didn't even have enough strength to move her fingers.
Due to overconsumption of strength and lack of beast blood supplement, waves of tearing pain were rushing through her every nerve. She was exhausted and all she wanted to do was close her eyes and have a sleep.
And she did that.
Or, because of that egg in her arms, the state of which had been alternating between hot and cold, her body inexplicably descended into intense sleepiness.
After a short while, Yun Wu flaked out.
The moment she fell asleep, that red egg in her arms suddenly started shining at regular intervals as its temperature alternated between high and low.
Right at this moment, some green strips like willow twigs stretched out of Yun Wu's abdomen, looking very weird.
And then, with a swish, those strips shot towards the wall and adhered to it.
Yun Wu's body instantly stopped falling, hanging in mid-air in this pitch-dark pit, her abdomen facing upwards.
Just like this, the red egg in her arms quietly waited to hatch, absorbing the residual Primal Fire in her right arm bit by bit.
Yun Wu stayed in deep sleep one day after another.
Soon, a month passed by and she still didn't wake up.
Because of her missing, some secret organization threw the Luo City into chaos.
For the same reason, magic beasts launched an unprecedented mass attack on the border.
However, this girl sleeping in this dark pit was totally unaware of any of this.
Everything stayed the same around her.
…
An extra half a month passed.
The pitch-dark pit was suddenly lit by a red light accompanied by scorching heat.
Surprisingly, those willow twigs adhering to the walls had grown a lot bigger, looking exuberant and vigorous.
Yun Wu was no longer hanging but lying on those willow twigs.
"Crack!"
"Crack! Crack!"
The sounds of something cracking were heard.
Yun Wu, who had been asleep all along, was waken up by those cracks coming from beside her ears.
'It's so hot.'
Yun Wu knitted her eyebrows together the moment she woke up, feeling miserably hot, as if she was in an oven.
"Crack! Crack!"
She abruptly opened her eyes and a purple light flashed across her purple pupils.
Yun Wu was unaware of this.
She hadn't moved for so long that she felt stiff all over, and her joints clicked as she sat up.
She looked downwards and then upwards, but all she saw was darkness.
When she realized the situation she was in, she was stunned.
'What the hell is this place?'
Suddenly, what had happened before she fell down flashed across her mind.
Was this pit that she had fallen into literally bottomless?
Just as its name implied, a bottomless pit had no bottom, and anyone fell into it would keep falling downwards forever.
Didn't the god of hard luck favor her too much?
"Crack! Crack!"
While Yun Wu was speechless with resignation, the sounds of eggshell cracking were heard again.
Yun Wu instantly lowered her eyes onto the red egg in her arms.
On the sight of it, Yun Wu was taken aback.
The egg, which was originally about the size of a football, had grown to over twice its original size. It was shining intermittently, the color of the light alternating between red and black, which imparted an thick air of mystery to it.
She merely had a sleep, yet it grew so much bigger?
"Crack, crack… "
For some inexplicable reason, sounds of eggshell cracking became more frequent, as if the little creature inside the egg was about to hatch out.
