Chapter 134: Mia (1/2)
Sam thought for a bit and tried to think of an appropriate name, after some thought, he still doesn't know what would be appropriate for a hydra which might possibly become a variant in future.
After some consideration, Sam decided to name it Mia. Not because he thought it is appropriate, but he came to a conclusion because he knew that he would never be able to decide whether any name would be appropriate or not.
And to justify himself Sam said. ”As Shakespeare said, what is there in a name? A rose by any other name would smell as sweet and no matter what you are named you will still be the strongest hydra who stays forever by my said. So, your name is Mia.”
Sam patted the heads of her as he said this. Mia seemed to be happy as it snuggled even more comfortably.
Even though, Sam liked this he has another problem at hand now and that is to improve the hydra quickly.
Many people might think that the off-spring of the immortal beasts will be of higher-level, but they only have a greater potential, other than that they also start as the Level 0 beasts.
But that is the problem. Sam is already at the Late stage Novice, If he needs to make a contract with Mia when he reaches the Great realm, he would have to wait till it grows to the peak of the Level 3.
There is actually a way to make a contract even if the beast was of lower level, this also helps Mia to grow faster. The growth rate will be incredibly fast due to sharing the spiritual energy of his and the remaining beasts.
But the problem with this method is, with his current power level, if he doesn't control the contract well, when he is connected to the beast of lower level, the beast might have side effects.
Even after the contract is successful, he would have to be extremely carefully control sharing the spiritual energy so that Mia could digest it properly, if there are any mishaps, the consequences will be dire.
So, he didn't dare do that.
Then he thought of the pool of Hydra's blood.
He is still thinking why the Hydra left the pool of blood. From the formation, it would have been converted into energy just like the hydra's flesh if the beast itself, doesn't forcefully expel the blood from the body.
Sam carried Mia to the pool of the hydra blood.
When he entered the formation with the breathing device, he saw the Executioner sword in the middle of the pool.
It was placed there with the skeleton as support.
Sam observed some changes in the sword, even though he didn't examine it up close, he can still see that the Blood iron seemed to improve in its grade.
He still didn't take it out, there is still a lot of room for improvement for it within the pool.
At this moment, he sensed a little unrest in his hands and when he looked down at Mia, she is looked at the pool with all her heads still and all eyes focusing on the pool.
She seemed to sense some familiarity.
Sam slowly placed her down and she slowly walked towards the edge of the pool.
She curiously placed his front limbs inside the pool.
Her eyes brightened immediately and swiftly jumped into the pool. Sam was anxious for a second, and only after he saw Mia popping her heads out, did he relax.
Mia swam around the pool slowly, after sometime it became more familiar and started swimming.
Sam sensed that something is happening to Mia and he started using his observation ability.
He could sense that spiritual energy from the blood is being transformed to Mia as later absorbed it quickly and from the look of things she didn't even know that she is absorbing.
Sam came out of the pool and asked Yanwu on the situation.
”Well, actually beasts of our level grow rapidly. I was deliberately left with Level 1 cultivation in order to assist you. Otherwise all the beasts grow in the infant stage by absorbing the spiritual energy from their mother.
Now, Mia should also be doing that.”
Sam wasn't surprised as he already thought this might be the case, he even has some doubts on Yanwu's cultivation, but he refrained himself from asking. Now he knew that Yanwu was deliberately supressed, Sam is confused.
The questions in his mind about Ling Tian and his actions of giving these many privileges is already confusing. Now that he knew that the Ling Tian forbade a Mythical beast for fifteen years to not to improve was something even more confusing. Why go to that extent to support a person?
All he need is only on answer. Purpose. What is the purpose of all this?
Even if he is beaten to death, he wouldn't believe that Ling Tian is doing this to really give him a chance to reach his potential. There is something brewing behind the scenes, which he was completely oblivious about.
