Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 559 - An Egg

Chapter 559 - An Egg

Lin Mu watched as Little Shrubby a.s.similated all the beast Qi in his body. He could see that while his cultivation base was not directly affected, his body was definitely improving little by little.

Lin Mu knew that the changes will be slow, but as long as he kept on supplying the beast Qi, Little Shrubby will progress steadily.

"I guess that's another thing to add to my routine now… hopefully, once I break through to the Nascent Soul realm, I'll have higher spirit Qi stores so I can produce more beast Qi at once." Lin Mu muttered to himself.

About two hours later, Little Shrubby had fully a.s.similated the beast Qi, which was much faster than before when it took over twelve hours.

"Are you done?" Lin Mu questioned.

"Yes." Little Shrubby replied.

"Can you take more Beast Qi?" Lin Mu asked.

"No… I don't think I can for now. Even though I have absorbed all of it, I still feel 'full'." Little Shrubby explained.

Lin Mu nodded his head while thinking, 'just as I thought. The growth of the body isn't the only effect the beast Qi is having. There are extra aspects that make it take longer event though it has been fully a.s.similated.'

Lin Mu stood up and walked out of the cave, which prompted Little Shrubby to follow behind him as well.

"Where are you going, master?" Little Shrubby asked.

"I'm going to give another beast the Beast Qi." Lin Mu replied.

It was as if Little Shrubby had been hurt, and his ears drooped.

"Why would you do that?" Little Shrubby asked.

"Ahaha," Lin Mu chucked upon seeing little shrubby's betrayed reaction. "I'm giving it to that beast so that it can break through to the Nascent Soul realm and I can take advantage of its heavenly tribulation."

"Also, you don't need to worry. I can give you more beast Qi later, I can keep on making it as long as I have spirit Qi." Lin Mu a.s.sured.

Little Shrubby's eyes lit up after hearing Lin Mu's words and he felt relieved.

"Okay." Little Shrubby replied.

Lin Mu nodded his head and flew towards the location of the nest of the Fire Fang Snake. Little Shrubby followed behind him and curiously checked out the entire area as his spirit sense also wandered.

"There she is," Lin M pointed for Little Shrubby.

Little Shrubby raised his head and observed the Fire Fang Snake, which was curled up in the hollow of a broken tree.

"Just wait, here. I don't think she will like it if another beast gets closer." Lin Mu advised.

Little Shrubby just nodded his head in response and jumped to the top of a tree, wanting to observe from a vantage point. Lin Mu on the other hand, approached the fire fang snake who had already sensed him as well.

~hiss~

The fire fang snake hissed in greeting.

"Ah, so you were already expecting me." Lin Mu said upon seeing the action of the beast.

He then looked around and saw that the Black water snake was also nearby. It seemed to be deep in sleep, and Lin Mu could already sense the aura of his body changing.

"Oh? His bloodline is already progressing?" Lin Mu said upon seeing this.

The Black Water snake was at the Late stage of the core condensation realm when Lin Mu had given it the half strand of Beast Qi. But now, it was already at the peak stage of the Core condensation realm. It was evident that the beast Qi had contributed greatly to this.

"Seems like I'll have two candidates for the Heavenly tribulation…" Lin Mu muttered before looking at the Fire Fang Snake.

"Are you ready?" Lin Mu questioned.

~hiss~

The Fire Fang snake nodded her head, almost like a human.

Lin Mu then chanted the nurturing heart sutra and refined a string of Beast Qi in his Dantian before sending it out to the Fire Fang Snake.

~shua~

~HISS~

As soon as the Fire Fang Snake consumed the strand of Beast Qi, her body's aura skyrocketed at a great speed. Her scales s.h.i.+ned with a red light as the sound of loud heartbeats could be heard.

~hiss~

But then a change happened. The fire fang snake let out a hiss that sounded painful. Its body twitched and turned in unease.

"What's happening to her?" Lin Mu wondered and used his spirit sense to probe it.

He understood the reason behind it quite quickly.

"She's laying the eggs!" Lin Mu realized.

He kept on observing, and about thirty minutes later, the Fire Fang Snake had successfully laid an egg. But it felt strange to Lin Mu, as it was not normal.

"Why's there only one egg? Don't the Fire Fang Snakes lay over ten eggs at once? And why is it so big?" Lin Mu questioned.

But that was not all, as once the mucus and blood from the egg were cleared, Lin Mu saw its color.

"Its… Grey?" Lin Mu spoke in a doubtful tone.

He quickly took out the records of the beasts he had and checked more about the Fire Fang snake. He learned that the Fire Fang Snakes laid more than ten eggs at once and their eggs were red in color, like their eggs.

While the egg that was laid by this Fire Fang snake was grey and only one in number. Though if he considered the size, this single egg was probably the size of the ten eggs combined.

"Seems like a change caused by mixing of two different snakes," Xukong said.

"Oh, yes! I almost forgot that the Fire Fang Snake's mate is a Black Water snake." Lin Mu spoke.

He then checked the characteristics of the Black Water snake eggs and learned that they laid about four to six eggs at once that were the size of chicken eggs. They were also black in color along with some blue patterns. The egg that the Fire Fang Snake had laid was nothing like that one.

"This is certainly peculiar…" Lin Mu muttered.
