887 Errand Boy 5 (1/2)

Dyon picked up the small egg. It was only about half a foot in diameter, but it was ridiculously heavy. Dyon could tell that even if he used all of his strength, cracking his shell was nothing more than a dream.

”With such a heaven defying beast, how do I get it to acknowledge me as its master? With its intelligence, it couldn't be that the first person it sees will be its mother, can it?”

'You're right, with the Celestial Hamster's intelligence, it can obviously tell the difference between its species and another even as a newborn. In fact, this egg is a little larger than it should be, so it might be even more troublesome.

'That said, Celestial Hamsters don't choose their masters based on strength or battle prowess, they choose based on intelligence. If it thinks you're smart enough, it'll choose you. That simple.'

”Interesting…” Dyon pondered for a moment before asking a question. ”How do I hatch it?”

'The Celestial Hamster is an ancient era beast, just like the Celestial Deer once was before their bloodline declined. If you want to hatch it, you need Primordial Energy, or a suitable replacement for it. Luckily for you, your Inner World happened to accumulate a lot of it.

'Whatever you do, do not try to establish a soul pact with the Celestial Hamster before it hatches. Not only can it circumvent such an attempt, such an underhanded tactic will make it hate you forever.'

”Alright.” Dyon nodded before allowing the egg into his Inner World, then he turned his senses inward to see if there were any changes.

Currently, his Inner World was quite barren, but the land was brimming with vitality, as though it was only waiting for vegetation to be planted. Other than some hills here and there, it was mostly flat, golden lands. In addition, in corresponding with his cultivation level, the land itself was only about a few dozen meters in every direction from the center.

In all likelihood, the land would mature a bit more before his soul and wills were unlocked. From what Dyon could see, his soul manifestation was still meditating silently in the air, and there were also 4 primordial yins circulating him. This gave Dyon another boost in morale, but the fourth was definitely Amphorae's. He found it odd that he didn't see Luna's, but he brushed it off as being a result of her special constitution. After all, so many powerful clans were seeking her out, maybe he wasn't worthy of taking possession of her Primordial Yin.

However, despite all this, the most shocking event happening currently was the rampaging Primordial Energy. An endless supply seemed to be funneling directly into the small egg, causing it to wobble every now and then. It seemed that it wouldn't be too long before it hatched at this pace.
