Facing Sheyan's question, Melody pondered for a moment before replying seriously.
"I guess so. I've already recalled most of my past life's magic and battle experiences. It's a pity my body's potential hasn't been fully developed yet. If not, I wouldn't be afraid of those uruk-hais."
Sheyan suddenly recalled something, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
"Then were you a male elf or female elf in your past life?"
Melody rolled her eyes at him, she obviously understood Sheyan's words. Her eyes carried 30% lust and 70% anger as she replied.
"Because a twilight elf once bathed in the radiance of the divine tree, she can obtain the memories of her past life's cultivation experiences. Her innate talent and wisdom are stronger, but how could she possibly know anything else?"
Sheyan heaved a sigh of relief. But thinking about it, if the twilight elf still had the memories of her previous life, then carrying the memories and emotions of a man as a woman, then she would be even more masculine than Brother Spring. (Incidentally, Brother Spring's Azure Dragon Crescent Blade slashing down in the Dragon Gate Flying Armour was V587)
Conversely, if she brought along a female's memories and feelings as a male elf, then she would be an angel returning from Thailand ….. such a mentally deformed twilight elf, naturally couldn't be called a leader by the elves who pursued perfection.
Seeing that it was about time, Sheyan extended his hand to support Melody's waist, then carried her up. He could feel her supple and supple body, and the unique scent of elves assailed his nostrils. Naturally, he couldn't help but be overflowing with lust. Yet this elf maiden treated him as her 'protector', completely trusting him and doing whatever he pleased. If not for the fact that he had to take into consideration Melody's safety, Sheyan would have really wanted to rape this chick.
Melody who had just awoken was still extremely weak, her first few steps looked like she would slip at any moment. But after walking for tens of metres, her steps became lighter. After walking for close to a hundred metres, Melody suddenly halted her footsteps and exclaimed in astonishment.
"How can there be such a powerful aura of life!"
Sheyan was stunned, he first scanned his surroundings and sniffed hard. He then helplessly spread out his hands and concluded that this was probably a twilight elf's innate ability. Then, the elf girl casually plucked a green leaf from the ground. Then, with a light twist, she crushed it into powder and gently tossed it into the air. Large amounts of green light dots could be seen floating in the air like fireflies. Although the wind whistled in the Stone Valley, it was not disturbed in the slightest.
After these dots of light were still in the air for a while, they flew against the wind and flew into a crack on the left. They then gathered into a ball of green dots of light. Melody swiftly stepped forward, using her fingers to pick up the object that was enveloped by the green radiance. Upon closer inspection, Sheyan gasped in astonishment. As it turns out, the object that Melody mentioned had a 'powerful life aura', was shockingly that strange black stone object that he had picked up earlier!
After Melody flicked her finger, the green dots of light dispersed and congealed into a lifelike jade parrot that perched on her shoulder. Instead, Melody carefully inspected the black 'sphere' in her hands, her expression became more and more astonished. Finally, she became solemn.
"This egg that has obviously been stripped of its life force, yet it still possesses such a powerful life aura! In the Misty Mountains, the number of creatures that can lay such an egg can be counted with one's fingers! "
Sheyan was stunned.
"You're saying, this stone, this thing is … … .an egg?"
Melody earnestly nodded her head and replied.
"That's right."
She then sighed regretfully and said, "That's right.
"It's a pity that this egg should've suffered great damage previously. After being exposed to the sun and rain for so long, it caused the core of the embryo to evaporate and dissolve. If not, it would've been a rare and precious object. Although this layer of outer shell still has a vigorous life force, it can only be used to concoct some medicines."
Sheyan's heart stirred as he replied.
"I've previously collected similar eggs, but the one I collected contained a core. I don't know if it's the 'spirit embryo' you speak of."
As he spoke, Sheyan took out the few intact eggs he had on him. When Melody saw the cyan core within the core, she immediately cheered softly.
"That's it!"
As she spoke, her snow white slender fingers drew several abstruse symbols in the air. Wherever her fingers passed, specks of fluorescent light would appear. Even under the sunlight, it didn't dissipate. It seemed like it was an ancient elven script. Those few symbols hovered in the air, slowly revolving. It gave one the impression of a miniature version of the solar system.
Following that, she placed the mysterious core egg into the middle of the symbols. That mysterious egg actually floated in the air, and one could feel waves of heat emitting from it. That cyan core gradually turned berserk and untamed as it started to evaporate. Strands of cyan fumes were emitted from within, but it seemed to be obstructed by those mysterious symbols, completely unable to dissipate.
The elf maiden shut her eyes and took a deep breath, completely inhaling the cyan fumes. She didn't miss a single strand, until the core had completely vanished. Only then did she release a long sigh, as though a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders.
After a short while, the elf maiden repeated the same trick and consecutively absorbed the essences of three eggs. When Sheyan looked at her again, he realized Melody had a radiant glow to her face. Perhaps comparing her to a woman before and after makeup wasn't appropriate, but to put it bluntly, compared to before, the current Melody was like a new green leaf and tender bud that had been washed by the spring rain; radiating with a fresh lustre of water.
This was an exuberant vitality unique to nature, it was hard to describe with words. Furthermore, the fresh scent of her body was even more concentrated. Previously, one had to be near her to smell it. But now, standing 2-3 metres away, one could clearly smell it.
Melody tilted her head and gazed at Sheyan curiously.
"You really do have a mysterious and awe-inspiring power. When you carry these eggs with you, they are covered by this power. I can only sense them when you take them out."
Sheyan knew this was due to the unique nature of the realm, but he still chuckled and replied.
"That is a gift from our god."
As Melody spoke, she once again selected another egg with a core. Sheyan thought that three eggs wasn't enough, but when the core dissolved into cyan fumes, Melody motioned for Sheyan to take a deep breath. Sheyan asked in astonishment.
"Why aren't you taking it?"
Melody shrugged her shoulders and replied.
"I wish I could, but these eggs no longer have any life. A berserk and blazing energy had already extracted the most precious soul within before they hatched. Therefore, absorbing three pills was enough. Any more than that and it can only be used to heal your injuries. However, you can try to absorb it. The first time will be very beneficial to your body. "
At present, many thoughts were colliding in his mind. Ever since he was captured by the orc tribe of Saruman, these unsolvable mysteries were finally presented in front of him for the first time!
He pondered as he walked to the front of those mysterious ancient Elven words. Taking a deep breath, he felt as though the green smoke wasn't brought into his body by breathing. Instead, it seemed as though it had transformed into a nimble and lively snake that slithered into his lungs, refreshing his mind. For a moment, he felt as though his heart was beating vigorously, and his blood seemed to be surging like a tidal wave within his veins!
Simultaneously, the nightmare imprint transmitted a notification.

"This, is actually an egg laid by that giant octopus??" After receiving this information, Sheyan's mind was suddenly struck by a lightning bolt, piercing through the gloomy clouds that enveloped the entire sky! Those scattered riddles, were instantly pierced through by a single thread!
"If that's the case, then everything makes sense."
Sheyan had never expected that he would actually obtain a permanent + 1 to all attributes. Obviously, this was related to the absorption method provided by Melody. If he directly consumed it, it would probably only add 2-3 attribute points. Obviously, it wouldn't be as awesome as a + 1 to all attributes.
Still, a permanent + 1 to all attributes may seem like a rather awesome enhancement, but in this horribly difficult world, it was practically useless. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at qidian.com. Your support, is my greatest motivation.)
