Chapter 2260: Egg of a Holy Beast (1/2)

“Your Highness Holy Prince Huang Xiaolong,” The eldest of the Three Red Devils, He Longjie, quivered in fear as he spoke, “As long as you are willing to spare our lives, we can tell you a shocking secret!”

Huang Xiaolong wasn’t tempted in the slightest, and he responded, “I would still find it out after searching your souls!”

In fact, from the two Evolving Dragon Holy Gate disciples’ memories, Huang Xiaolong had already learned what the Three Red Devils’ ‘shocking secret’ was.

The Three Red Devils plunged into despair.

“Your Highness Holy Prince Huang Xiaolong, we know we’re bound to die, but before we die, we have a last request.” Second Brother, He Longde, pleaded, “Please annihilate the Holy Alliance!”

If the Holy Alliance hadn’t given them the wrong information, misleading them to think that the three of them were enough to kill Huang Xiaolong, they would not have stayed there, waiting for Huang Xiaolong’s arrival. Therefore, they resented the Holy Alliance down to their bones.

“Don’t worry, even if you don’t make this request, I will do it.” Huang Xiaolong nodded his head in agreement.

Huang Xiaolong subsequently searched the Three Red Devils’ souls for their memories and then devoured their’ complete dao saint godhead, saint bloodline, and saint physique, leaving only their heads as proof of completing his task.

He also collected the two Evolving Dragon Holy Gate disciples’ and Three Red Devils’ spatial artifacts before walking to the space in the inner section of the Three Red Devils’ residence.

There was only one item inside this space!

An egg!

A giant egg!

The egg’s surface was densely covered with intricate, mysterious patterns. These patterns were probably inscribed on the egg by someone, for it exuded a powerful sacred aura. Clearly, the inscriber was someone who had already stepped into the True Saint Realm.

Something worthy enough for a True Saint to make the effort of inscribing these detailed patterns on the giant egg showed just how valuable the egg was. This egg was the shocking secret the Three Red Devils had tried to tempt Huang Xiaolong with earlier.

A giant egg that was a holy beast’s egg!

Only a holy beast that possessed complete bloodline inheritance could be called a holy beast, and only this kind of holy beast could advance to True Saint Realm.

One point to note was that there were fewer holy beasts than Holy Princes. For example, the Zhuoyuan Holy Ground’s Holy Gate had thirty Holy Princes, but in the entire Zhuoyuan Holy Ground, there was only one holy beast. This spoke volumes as to how rare a holy beast was.

Although the value of a holy beast egg was lower than an actual holy beast, it was still a precious treasure.

Huang Xiaolong reached out, placing his hand on the egg and spurred his three complete dao saint godheads’ power, and gently probed the life within the holy beast egg.

Half a day later, Huang Xiaolong removed his hand, and there was a big smile on his face.

From his probings, Huang Xiaolong could already confirm that the holy beast egg in front of him was going to hatch soon. At most, in a little over a hundred years, the little guy inside would break out.

Generally, it took ten million years and even a billion years for a holy beast egg to hatch. It was a stroke of good luck that the holy beast egg he found was already close to hatching. Huang Xiaolong honestly admitted that he did not have the patience to wait for millions of years.

Moreover, Huang Xiaolong had learned that there was a kind of medicinal potion that could speed up a holy beast egg’s incubation time from Wan Zhuoyuan’s memories. With this medicinal potion, the holy beast egg would hatch in a decade, maybe even in a short few years. There was no need to wait a hundred years or more.

Huang Xiaolong put away the giant holy beast egg into the lightning bead’s space then left the Three Red Devils’ residence.

Not only he had successfully completed his training task of killing the Three Red Devils this time, but he had also devoured the two Evolving Dragon Holy Gate disciples’ saint godhead and saint bloodline, and even picked up a giant holy beast egg. This put Huang Xiaolong in a good mood.
