Chapter 559: An Egg (1/2)
Lin Mu watched as Little Shrubby assimilated 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 assimilated 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 assimilated.'
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 assured.
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.
