BXBX NOVEL Chapter 40 - 40 Sky-covering Cloud Roc i
In front of the waterfall halfway up the mountain, Yun Tianqiong and Ling Xi each cradled an Immortal Beast egg, ceaselessly nourishing them with True Yuan.
Strong life fluctuations transmitted from inside rhe Immortal Beast eggs, and one could even clearly hear the heartbeat, but the creatures within showed no signs of emerging.
Li Cheng appeared before the two, his expression somewhat astonished, “Are you using fresh blood to feed them?”
“Greetings, Master! ” The two quickly got up to pay their respects.
On the shells of the Immortal Beast eggs, there were still traces of fresh blood that hadn’t dried.
“To answer Master, we heard that Taming Beast Sect has a method of feeding with fresh blood, so we also tried it,” Yun Tianqiong said somewhat awkwardly.
Li Cheng was dumbfounded. The Taming Beast Sect’s method was a closely guarded secret technique, using fresh blood to delineate taming marks, not ordinary blood nourishment.
However, doing so could indeed let the unborn Immortal Beasts remember their scent, which would be somewhat helpful in taming them.
“Master, it always feels like they are about to come out, but seem to be missing something,” Ling Xi remarked.
Li Cheng nodded, he had noticed this issue just now, but he didn’t know either!
Saying outright that he didn’t know would be improper.
So Li Cheng nodded, “Let me try.”
With that, Li Cheng took out the Immortal Stone.
Immortal Beasts are unique to the Immortal World, could it be they cannot emerge from the eggs due to the lack of Immortal Qi?
Activating the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, Li Cheng channeled the Immortal Qi from within the Immortal Stone, directing it towards rhe two Immortal Beast eggs.
As Immortal Qi poured in, there indeed was a change!
On the shells of the two Immortal Beast eggs, tapping sounds emanated simultaneously, and as the Immortal Qi continued to flow in ceaselessly, the tapping grew louder!
Crack!
Finally, cracks appeared on the eggshells!
“It worked!” Li Cheng retreated to a distance, observing with his Spiritual Sense.
From within each eggshell, a golden beak protruded, its cold shine flickering like an indestructible curved hook!
“Some kind of eagle?” Yun Tianqiong asked curiously.
Before they even completely emerged from their eggs, a scorching aura had already begun to spread; the grass and trees around them caught fire, and even the pool in front of the waterfall started to boil.
Li Cheng hastily set up a Formation to protect the area, his eyes revealing surprise, “The one under Yun Tianqiong’s care actually possesses the Fire series Law and Time Law? Born with the Power of Laws, this is…”
Li Cheng suddenly realized it was during the time he roasted them that he entered a state of Enlightenment, inexplicably bestowing upon them the Power of Laws!
The one under Ling Xi’s care, possessed the Fire series Law and Life Law.
Both of these possessed two kinds of the Power of Laws!
Could these still be considered Immortal Beasts?
Once they grow up, they won’t just be akin to powerful beings!
Lost in thought, they cracked open the eggshells, stretching their bodies, and were fully revealed!
Surrounded by a pale golden light, they unfurled wings only the size of a palm, but the aura they emitted gave the impression of a mountainous oppression.
Yun Tianqiong and Ling Xi, protected by an eighth-level Formation, still felt as though what they held was akin to a great mountain.
“Sky-covering Cloud Roc!”
Li Cheng recognized them, and couldn’t help but click his tongue in wonder.
This type of Immortal Beast was renowned in the Immortal World, standing at the apex of the food chain.
The two Sky-covering Cloud Rocs looked at Yun Tianqiong and Ling Xi respectively, then began to devour their own eggshells, and as they consumed the shells, their bodies visibly began to grow rapidly!
When they finished eating their shells completely, they had grown two meters in height and were seven or eight meters long, with wings that spanned fifteen or sixteen meters when unfurled.
Li Cheng clicked his tongue incessantly; wasn’t this growth rate too fast?
In little over a quarter of an hour, such a growth rate was practically like inflation with an air compressor!
In astonishment, the Sky-covering Cloud Roc under Yun Tianqiong’s care affectionately approached and rubbed its head against Yun Tianqiong but accidentally sent Yun Tianqiong flying.
Yun Tianqiong had not yet landed when the Sky-covering Cloud Roc had already positioned itself underneath, catching him with its broad back.
Yun Tianqiong, excited, turned around and grabbed a few feathers of the
Sky-covering Cloud Roc, “Haha, Little Tian…”
On the other side, Ling Xi had already started communicating with her
Sky-covering Cloud Roc. Her delicate body leaned forward, hugging the bowed Sky-covering Cloud Roc, and her giggles were non-stop.
“It’s simpler than I expected, but these two S Icy-covering Cloud Rocs still can’t control their own strength, and they’re likely to hurt others by mistake,” Li Cheng murmured to himself.
[Disciple Yun Tianqiong has gained recognition from an Immortal Beast, rewarded with 2 Enlightenment opportunities. I
[Disciple Ling Xi has gained recognition from an Immortal Beast, rewarded with 2 Enlightenment opportunities.]
[Current remaining Enlightenment opportunities: 14.]
“Yo? Not bad at all!”
The sudden system notification filled Li Cheng with joy; indeed, not a small number of Enlightenment opportunities!
“This is the S Icy-covering Cloud Roc, all at the Divinity Transformation Stage. Train them to control their own power first, and be careful about safety.”
Li Cheng sent a mental message to instruct them, then returned to the mountain peak.
Back at rhe peak, Li Cheng took out rhe Immortal Stone.
When he had just triggered the Immortal Qi inside it, the stone emitted a faint fluctuation, pointing northward.
To be precise, it was the map on it that was guiding him, as if something in the north was drawing it.
Moreover, when he had just triggered rhe Immortal Qi, Li Cheng found that he could absorb it!
Without crossing Tribulation, yet able to absorb Immortal Qi!
He tried again, and indeed he could!
The Immortal Qi entered his body, circulating throughout, and eventually converged in his Dantian, nourishing the Nascent Soul.
With just a wisp of Immortal Qi, Li Cheng could clearly feel that his power had increased significantly.
“Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture is quite extraordinary. Normally, without passing through Heaven Tribulation, absorbing Immortal Qi would only lead to my body exploding, but under the combined effect of this Cultivation Technique and the Power of Laws, I can absorb Immortal Qi recklessly!”
“If there are enough Immortal Stones, could I not completely transform the True Yuan in my body into Immortal Yuan and become an Immortal?”
The idea made Li Cheng’s eyebrows twitch; it was a bold one!
An Immortal without undergoing Tribulation now that was keeping things well hidden!
However, on second thought, when Li Cheng first comprehended the Power of Laws, he realized that he seemed unable to sense Heaven Tribulation any longer.
Now, it was still the same!
Yet not daring to sense Heaven Tribulation in detail, Li Cheng could not be completely sure.
After all, if he did sense it thoroughly and actually felt it, then the Tribulation would come.
Once he crossed the Tribulation, he would have to face ascension!
Ascend?
Ascending was out of the question!
Not to mention that the True Immortal Light Remnant Soul was so powerful that he would be mere dust there!
The key issue was that if he went to the Immortal World, he probably couldn’t recruit disciples!
Why not?
In the Kunlun Realm, he was among the top existences and could recruit disciples easily with people lining up for the opportunity.
In the Immortal World, he’d be nobody, so why would they choose him as a master?
Why choose him over so many other Immortals?
Because he was handsome?
Looks can t overcome everything; strength is what matters!
Therefore, he definitely wouldn’t ascend until he was strong enough!
Moreover, since an Immortal Stone had appeared in the Southern Domain, there must be many more!
With disciples and Immortal Stones, how could he not grow strong?
Thinking all this, Li Cheng put away the Immortal Stone and looked towards the north, following the guidance of the Treasure Map -why not check it out?
The immortal Qi in this stone shouldn’t be absorbed anymore; otherwise, if he absorbed too much and it stopped guiding him, it would be a loss.
Just as he was about to leave, Mu Xingzhi’s voice reached his ears, “Junior
Uncle, there is a matter that requires your counsel….”
