4223: I'm hungry.

I'm hungry.

Little chick let out a long cry as a rainbow-colored light flashed around him. In an instant, his surroundings turned blurry. Within the rainbow-colored clouds, little chick's chubby figure became blurry, and the shape of a chubby little doll could be seen. "Hungry ..." A soft voice was heard. This voice came from this figure. However, in the next moment, the figure disappeared and turned back into a toot little yellow chick. Then, the little yellow chick rolled over to the pile of spirit stones.1

Ling Chuxi was stunned. Was that little yellow chick's human form? It seemed that this little guy was unable to maintain his human form. In the blink of an eye, the little yellow chick's form was gone before she could even see it clearly.

Following that, a five-colored light flashed, and the spiritual energy in the pile of five-colored spiritual stones condensed into a five-colored stream before being sucked into little chick's mouth.

Or rather, it wasn't intentionally absorbing it, but rather, the spiritual Qi was attracted and automatically injected into its body.

In just a short moment, all the spiritual Qi in the spirit stones had been absorbed by it. The five-colored light had also disappeared. What surprised Ling Chuxi even more was what happened next.

In the past, even though little chick's appetite was astonishing, it would still be able to leave an empty shell behind after absorbing the spiritual energy from the five-colored spiritual stone. It could still continue to use the stone after it was filled with spiritual energy for a period of time in the Meru space. However, this time, as the spiritual energy was depleted, the five-colored spiritual stone shattered into dust. This was obviously because the spiritual energy within had been absorbed too thoroughly, and even an empty shell could not support it.

Ling Chuxi was dumbfounded. This was five million five-colored spirit stones! In just a few breaths 'time, they were all gone, not even the shell was left.

This little fellow's appetite was too big. Thinking back to the days when it ate five meals a day and only had five five five-colored spirit stones in total, Ling Chuxi felt that that was what happiness was.

Landing on the ground, the little yellow chick pointed at the five-colored spirit stone that had been reduced to dust before pointing at its Flat Belly with a dejected expression.

"Are you trying to tell me that these five-colored spiritual stones are no longer enough to fill your stomach?" Ling Chuxi guessed.

"Oh," This time, the little yellow chick nodded its head vigorously.

After consuming five million five-colored spirit stones in one go, its mental energy was much better than before, but it was only a little better. It was still far from being full and running around.

"Little fellow, you've suffered." Ling Chuxi pulled the little yellow chick into her embrace.

This time, she finally understood why the little guy was willing to stay in the Meru space and not go out. Why was he always drowsy and listless? it turned out that it was because he knew that his appetite was too big. Just relying on Ling Chuxi's little five-colored spirit stones would not be able to fill his stomach and satisfy his needs for growth. That was why he was obediently staying in the Meru space.

Ling Chuxi was touched and guilty at the same time. She had originally thought that with her financial resources, she would be able to let the little fellow go through its growth period and grow into a true Phoenix divine beast. Only now did she know that she had been too optimistic.

Five million spirit stones were only enough to make it half-full, and it hadn't even fully recovered its vitality. If it wanted to grow into a real phoenix, God knew how many five-colored spirit stones it would need. Fortunately, she still had the Meru space, or else the little guy would have starved to death.
