Chapter 844 844: Terrifying Egg!
The egg was only at fist size, and it was completely pitch-black.
No wonder it was hard for Tang Li Xue to find it in this dark and gloomy environment even with her [Night Vision] and [Extrasensory Perception].
Tang Li Xue led Little Loki and Yaya as they jumped into the dried spiritual spring pool and approached the pitch-black egg.
When Tang Li Xue was quite far from the pitch-black egg, she did not notice anything strange about it just like an unnoticeable round black pebble, but when she got close to it, she could feel the fearsome palpitating aura emitted by that pitch-black egg.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply with a solemn expression as she did not even dare to rashly touch the pitch-black egg.
After pondering carefully for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to check the pitch-black egg first with her basic [All Knowing Eyes] before making further decisions.
---------------------------------------------
[The Egg of Golden Winged Falcon (Contaminated and corrupted)]
[Maturity level before hatching: 97.8%, or wait for another 420 years before hatching naturally. Providing it with enough nutrition would significantly speed up the hatching time.]
[Description: The egg of the true spirit beast, Golden Winged Falcon. It died after being contaminated by the powerful undead aura.
However, its luck was extremely good. It did not turn into a living baby corpse like the other eggs but transformed and reborn completely as an undead creature.
Furthermore, the ancient mythical bloodline hidden in its body was completely stimulated and awakened because of it.
Under the continuous nourishment of the extremely high-grade spiritual spring pool in the egg incubation room for tens of thousands of years, the degree of purity of the awakened ancient mythical bloodline had reached an astonishing level.
Current awakened ancient mythical bloodline, Golden-Winged Great Peng: 11.6%.
Trying to destroy this egg at this point would only speed up the time of its hatching and make it born prematurely.
Even if it hatched prematurely, it would definitely have the strength of a top-rank true spirit beast!
Rather than doing such a thankless and troublesome thing, it would be much better if you try to tame it with top-level taming treasure for undead, or you can also try to extract its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline and give it to another bird-type beast.] n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
---------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue grasped in shock and disbelief, then she read the pitch-black egg\'s description again and again to make sure she did not see it wrong!
"Holy cow~!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in panic as she turned around reflexively, she wanted to run away as quickly and far away as possible from that terrifying egg so badly!
Tang Li Xue immediately noticed that hundreds of zombified baby creatures already completely surrounded the dried spiritual spring pool from all directions.
Normally, they should have already attacked Tang Li Xue and her group fiercely together from all directions, but they had not done it yet until now as if they were afraid of something.
Tang Li Xue immediately realized that even all of the zombified baby creatures were afraid of getting close to this pitch-black egg.
It might be because of the terrifying palpitating aura emitted by the pitch-black egg, or its extremely powerful undead aura which had an unbearable suppressing effect on all living corpses.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down her mood before she reluctantly turned around to stare at the pitch-black egg again.
"No wonder even Little Loki said that it emitted a quite scary aura. Quite a scary aura is clearly an understatement, okay?! This egg is far beyond scary level!" Tang Li Xue murmured in a solemn tone mixed with a scared tone.
Tang Li Xue had played many video games and read many novels in her previous life, so she knew a lot of ancient mythical beasts from them, but only a very few ancient mythical beasts that could make her respect them.
This [Golden-Winged Great Peng] was undoubtedly one of them!
In the \'Journey to the West\' story she had read before, even her Uncle Sun was beaten helplessly by this [Golden-Winged Great Peng]!
If not for Tathagata Buddha who came in time to subdue this [Golden-Winged Great Peng], it was still questionable if her Uncle Sun could still survive to continue his journey to the West and become \'Victorious Fighting Buddha\' in the end.
This Golden Winged Falcon\'s egg might still be far from being comparable to the real [Golden-Winged Great Peng] in the \'Journey to the West\' story, but 11.6% of [Golden-Winged Great Peng] bloodline purity was clearly extremely high!
If it evolved a few more times, there was almost no doubt that it could become the real pure-blooded [Golden-Winged Great Peng] in the future!
For such an egg with unlimited potential, Tang Li Xue really wanted to adopt and raise it so badly, but unfortunately, this egg had already died after the undead aura contaminated it.
Even though it was reborn and transformed completely into an undead creature, Tang Li Xue still did not have the guts to raise it as her close companion pet like Yaya and Little Loki.
To make it worse, the description said that forcibly trying to destroy this egg would only hasten its hatching time and make it born prematurely instead.
Even though it was born prematurely, it would still instantly have the strength equal to a top-rank spirit beast!
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead to ease her headache while trying to ask her System: "System, how powerful a top-rank spirit beast is?"
[The three spirit beast-level foxes in the Host\'s previous team have the strength of low-rank spirit beasts. The oldest one is at the peak of a low-rank spirit beast, only a step away from reaching the mid-rank spirit beast.]
Tang Li Xue almost got choked by her own saliva when she read her System\'s reply.
Even the chief of the exploration team, Zhu Jun, was only at the peak of a low-rank spirit beast!
"Cough, cough, cough... How many ranks are there?" Tang Li Xue asked again in a skeptical tone.
[There are four ranks in total: low-rank, mid-rank, high-rank, top-rank. But for the beasts who have just evolved to the true spirit beast level, they are usually called newborn spirit beasts which are below low rank since they still cannot wield their strength properly.]
Tang Li Xue staggered back in shock and disbelief.
"Are you kidding me?! This mere rotten egg will reach top-rank true spirit beast level as soon as it is born?! Even the pure-blooded Taotie cub like Little Loki is not as terrifying as it, right?!" Tang Li Xue still asked with a tone filled with disbelief.
[It has been nurtured in the extremely high-grade spiritual spring pool for tens of thousands of years after all. If pure-blooded Taotie cub was nurtured in this environment for tens of thousands of years, it should have already become a monstrous beast capable of devouring this entire Immortal World.]
"Oh, right~! Little Loki is here! Little Loki, can you just eat this egg with your [Heaven\'s Devour]?! It should have been easy for you to do it, right?!" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki as her topaz blue eyes were glittering like a pair of stars in excitement.
But out of Tang Li Xue\'s expectations, Little Loki was not excited, and it showed a reluctant expression instead.
Its reluctant reaction made Tang Li Xue feel really strange because Little Loki would usually greedily eat everything, especially something with an extremely high amount of energy like this egg, Little Loki would usually pounce at it excitedly and eat it without any hesitation.
[System suggests Host to refrain Host\'s companion pet from doing it rashly.]
"Why?" Tang Li Xue asked unconvincedly.
[That egg contains a tremendous amount of energy after being nurtured in the extremely high-grade spiritual spring pool over tens of thousands of years.]
[Host\'s companion pet is only a newborn Taotie cub. Its pure Taotie Bloodline has not awakened yet.]
[Even though it might not die after it devoured that egg, it would definitely fall asleep for at least a few thousand years to digest it.]
Tang Li Xue\'s pink lips twitched slightly after she read her System\'s explanation.
When Little Loki stepped closer to the pitch-black egg, Tang Li Xue hastily stopped it in panic and said: "All right, stop it, Little Loki! You do not need to devour it. We will think of another way to deal with this egg."
Little Loki sighed in relief as it stepped back from the pitch-black egg.
Tang Li Xue wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
Sleeping for a few thousand years might be nothing for a Taotie cub like Little Loki, but it was definitely an extremely long time for Tang Li Xue.
She might have already become an immortal fox deity after Little Loki awakens if that really happened.
Tang Li Xue read the last part of the egg\'s description once again: "Try to tame it with top-level taming treasure for undead, huh?"
Then her dimmed topaz blue eyes were shining in excitement again as she muttered and laughed happily: Hey, wait a minute... I can just use my [Sword of Disaster] to nurture and tame this egg slowly~! Muahahaha~! It seems the luck is truly on my side~!"
Just as Tang Li Xue took out her pitch-black [Sword of Disaster] and wanted to use it to poke at the egg to store it inside the [Sword of Disaster]\'s space, she immediately halted her movement.
"I can also try to extract its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline and give it to another bird-type beast?!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in surprise.
Tang Li Xue immediately recalled her previous promise to her white Wind-Riding Bird.
Yes, she had promised her white Wind-Riding Bird that she would never abandon it, and she would definitely find something to help it evolve into a higher-grade beast later at that time.
Wasn\'t this the perfect opportunity for that?!
Tang Li Xue instantly fell into a dilemma.
She hesitated whether she had to tame this egg using her [Sword of Disaster] or extract its Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline and then give it to her Wind-Riding Bird.
