Chapter 51 Golden Flame
"Ha!"

The little firebird seemed to feel the changes in its body. It rubbed Zhou Qingshan's palm affectionately, as if to express its gratitude.

Zhou Qingshan stroked his chin, looking at the little flame bird's body which had become noticeably rounder with gentle eyes, and couldn't help but think in his heart:

"The essence can be used directly on non-chess pieces? And the effect is so significant, does this mean that the Cloud Top Chessboard can recruit 'spiritual soldiers' as chess pieces?! Maybe my thinking is too limited, the scope of chess pieces should be all-encompassing?"

His thoughts quickly expanded, and countless possibilities flashed through his mind as he looked around.

“Swords, spears, swords, halberds, flowers, plants, trees, spiritual seeds… and those strange beasts, they should all be chess pieces!”

"If the Cloud Top chessboard can recruit non-living things as chess pieces, then does that mean there is no 'One and Only'? Can we use 'Essence' to upgrade the star? What happens after the star is upgraded?"

Zhou Qingshan glanced at the remaining essence on the chess piece panel. This thing suddenly became extremely precious.

The value of it being used to feed spirit soldiers is immeasurable, especially for the growth of little fire birds. As long as they can be fed to the size of normal spirit soldiers, there will be a commander in charge at home, giving you a maximum sense of security.

This kind of nuclear weapon must have!
Especially when they encountered the Liu and Xiong families who had been wiped out in Xipanling. The threat of that demon was imminent, and he didn't want to wake up that day and see Shengfeng Territory slaughtered.

Weakness is the original sin.

"The little guy seems to have become stronger."

Mo Yanqiu looked at the little firebird in amazement, which suddenly became full of energy. He reached out and gently picked it up, weighing it.

It's not an illusion, it's indeed a lot heavier.

She suddenly changed her mind.

In addition to being able to connect to this floating island, the young man's special ability can also bind her to a contract and replenish the power of the spiritual soldiers?
Is each one so incredible?

Anyone who uses any of these three special skills can become a guest of honor in the City Lord's Mansion, and his status can even be higher than that of the commander-in-chief of troops.

"This 'essence' technique is of great help to the little guy."

Zhou Qingshan said: "It's just that this 'Essence' skill is difficult to perform. I can still perform it once more. The essence is condensed from the corpse of the human-faced bear by the 'Cloud Top Chessboard'."

"Humans, ghosts, and strange beasts should be able to condense a lot of essence. Ordinary poultry are too weak to condense essence."

"Just throw the body down from the floating island?" Mo Yanqiu was also curious about where the body of the human-faced bear went, but since the young man didn't say anything, she didn't ask any more questions.

Combined with the young man's strange behavior of collecting human and ghost remains in the fog, everything makes sense.

"Correct."

Zhou Qingshan nodded in acknowledgment.

He had no intention of hiding anything about the Yunding chessboard from Mo Yanqiu, and there was no need to do so.

Especially after the [Unparalleled] bond was activated, he read Mo Yanqiu's unreserved heart, the person who would accompany him for the rest of his life.

Mo Yanqiu's face lit up with joy:
"This way the little fellow's food will be guaranteed in the future. We eat the spirit seeds, and it eats the essence."

For her, hunting exotic beasts is not difficult.

Besides, after the eternal day of the thirteenth month, there is no need to look for any strange beasts.

"Ha!"

When the little flame bird heard this, it was immediately unhappy and kicked around in Mo Yanqiu's hands, obviously realizing that the delicious food that was about to be in its mouth had flown away. The essence has no taste, and although it makes the whole body warm and comfortable, it is nowhere near the mouth-watering fragrance of the red jade fruit.

Mo Yanqiu glanced at it, no matter how noisy it was, he quietly put away the red jade fruit and said casually:

"Little guy, I'll keep this red jade fruit for you and give it to you when you grow up."

Mo Yanqiu is a pragmatist.

Now that they had found a food to replace the spiritual seeds, they naturally would not let the little flame bird waste the red jade fruit.

A toothpick-sized spiritual weapon will be useless after being waved three or five times. Its power is even more touching. It has no combat power at all in a short period of time, so we can only let the little guy suffer for the time being.

Seeing that Mo Yanqiu ignored it completely, the little firebird had no choice but to stop calling, lowered its body, and looked at Zhou Qingshan with a resentful expression, apparently hoping that he could make the decision.

I don’t know how a little bird can show so many expressions on its face.

Zhou Qingshan took the little flame bird from Mo Yanqiu's hands, tidied up its messy feathers, and found that this little guy was too comfortable to be a hand warmer. He comforted him softly:
"Don't worry, you won't be short of red jade fruit. If she doesn't give it to you, I will give it to you. However, this red jade fruit is very precious to us, and you don't need it very much now. Why don't you keep it with me first? In this way, I promise to give you two in the future."

Anyway, it didn't mention the date.

If you grow a red jade fruit tree, it will produce one fruit every year.

After these words, the little firebird's expression relaxed a little. It glanced at the box of red jade fruits, thinking that it would be able to eat two in the future. It swallowed its saliva and immediately called softly to show its agreement.

This little guy is so easy to coax.

Zhou Qingshan looked at the four ruby-like eyes of the little flame bird.

This newborn little firebird had a clear stupidity in its eyes. It seemed that it did not have the awareness of the big guy before and was unaware of the wickedness of human nature.

After playing with the little guy for a while, Zhou Qingshan suddenly asked:
"Little guy, do you have any special abilities?"

From what Mo Yanqiu said, spiritual soldiers can do more than just turn into weapons for fighting. I don't know what special resources this little guy can produce.

"Ha!"

The silly-haired little firebird tilted its head, flapped its little wings, trotted along Zhou Qingshan's arm to his shoulder, opened its tiny beak, and a light golden flame spewed out of its mouth.

"Chichi!" After spitting out this flame, the golden hair on the little firebird's head dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"You want me to eat?"

Zhou Qingshan looked at the pale golden flame floating near his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp under the expectant eyes of the little Flame Bird.

The next moment, Zhou Qingshan's figure was engulfed by the sudden huge flames.

The flames did not bring the expected burning and pain. On the contrary, Zhou Qingshan felt a warm force surrounding him. This force was gentle and full of vitality, like the spring sunshine, warm but not blazing.

Zhou Qingshan felt as if he was in a cocoon filled with warm light.

As the warm power penetrated, the injuries in the body began to heal slowly. The wounds that were originally painful now felt numb and itchy, as if new flesh was growing and blood was flowing again.

Zhou Qingshan slowly stood up in the golden flames. He opened the chess piece panel and found that his energy value had returned to 0.2, and this value was still rising continuously.

Mo Yanqiu saw Zhou Qingshan standing up in the light golden flames, a smile appeared on his face, and he praised the little flame bird:
"Little guy, you are still quite useful."
