”You don't have to hide it from me. I know you practice the Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique and you have even acquired the Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Instrument. This giant spawn has been here with me for 150 years and has been nourished by the place's formation, refined water, and various spiritual Qi throughout the years. It has enough nutrition already, only one more step is needed to hatch it! It is just that I haven't been able to find a suitable person to do it. You possess such an extraordinary amount of Real Essence, hatching the spawn shouldn't be a problem for you right?!” Lan Shui'er pleaded gently. ”As long as you are willing to help me out here, I will be responsible for sending all of you across the sea safely. Otherwise, all of you will never find a way out of Tusk Island!”
”Indeed, we do have some troubles!” Zhou Bao caressed his nose and looked helplessly at Lan Shui'er. Although he would really have liked to take control of Lan Shui'er then, he did not dare to attack someone on someone else's land. ”What do you want the spawn of the Primordial Fierce Beast for? The Primordial Fierce Beast is infamous for its viciousness. If the spawn really hatches, not only would it be unstoppable, but it would also be a catastrophe even for people of the Sea Rea right?”
It must be known that the strong strength of the Fierce Beast has been passed down for generations since the primitive times. Although it had been hundreds of thousands of years since it had made its first appearance, legends of its sheer ferocity and strength have been circulating until the present.
When Zhou Bao was young, he killed a young Primitive Dragon Chimera and obtained its Mysterious Fire. The Primitive Dragon Chimera was one of the Primordial Fierce Beasts that fed on dragons. The one Zhou Bao killed was not just a newborn, but one that was malnourished. It was about to die from hunger and that was why lucky Zhou Bao could attack it so easily.
Its Mysterious Fire fused well with Zhou Bao's Internal Qi. With the infusion of Real Essence, Zhou Bao's strength increased gradually. When Zhou Bao only had Internal Qi, the Scale Monster's Mysterious Fire shaped the Internal Qi such that its quality became level with and even exceeding that of Real Essence. Now that Zhou Bao had refined the Real Essence Source, his Internal Qi had all transformed into Real Essence. This Real Essence, under the influence of the Scale Monster's Mysterious Fire, had a higher quality than the average Dharma power. It was an addition to his Internal Qi. Plus, the Mysterious Fire was slowly nourishing and transforming Zhou Bao, allowing him to have a stronger physique and a stronger Spiritual Strength. It could be said that a major reason why Zhou Bao's practice journey had been so smooth was that the Scale Monster's Mysterious Fire had built a solid foundation for him.
And now, after practicing the 3000 Great Ways' Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique, he could feel the Dragon Chimera Fire was about to evolve again. If the evolvement was successful, the power of the Dragon Chimera Fire's Demonic Fire would be stronger. Then, it would be more helpful to him, and it was even possible that he could cultivate some Divine Senses of the Primitive Dragon Chimera.
What about the Primordial Fierce Beast's spawn in front of him? Which Fierce Beast left it behind? What effects could it have?
Zhou Bao was very intrigued, but also pretty worried.
His encounter with a young Primitive Dragon Chimera was out of sheer luck. It must be known that the Dragon Chimera's growth was mainly based on a diet of dragons. During primitive times, all the Dragon Chimeras lived on dragon meat and dragon blood. The strong Dragon Chimeras would prey on Heavenly Dragons and insert its own spawn into the body of Heavenly Dragons. Once the Dragon Chimera was born, it would then have enough food and fluids to grow robustly. It would not be like Zhou Bao's catch- one who drank water, ate grass and whose Mysterious Fire was almost turning into a kindling.
How could that Dragon Chimera have any power?
But the giant egg of a Primordial Fierce Beast in front of him was different. It had been nourished by Lan Shui'er for 150 years—who knows how strong it would be? Some legends said that some Primordial Fierce Beasts, after being delivered, would possess the strength as powerful as that of a Nine-tribulation True Immortal and even that of a Human Immortal. It was not something that ordinary evil beasts and humans could match.
Take the Primitive Dragon Chimera for example. If it could develop peacefully within the body of a Heavenly Dragon, it would possess the powers of a Nine-tribulation True Immortal once it was born. After a few hundred years, it would surpass the powers of a Nine-tribulation True Immortal and reach the level of a Human Immortal. And that was utterly incomparable to the practice of any human being.
But the Primordial Fierce Beast had one weakness, and that was the difficulty of transformation.
These animals were born strong, but to transform into humans would be hundreds of times harder than an average evil beast. Of course, these Primordial Fierce Beasts had no interest in transforming into humans.
If a Primordial Fierce Beast at a Nine-tribulation True Immortal level were to be born, who would be able to control it? Did Lan Shui'er ever consider this?
”Don't worry. In the past 150 years, it has been here, we have been able to develop telepathy. He also understands human nature. It is just that there is no way for it to hatch now, which is why I am asking for your help!”
”The Sea Area is vast. I guess the number of Demonic Immortals who practice fire-property Dharma power should not be small, right?”
”Not many!” Lan Shui'er shook her head, ”Demonic Immortals who truly practice the Fire Power are rare. This is the Sea Area. Even if there are underwater volcanoes, the Spiritual Energy of Fire will still be incomparable with the Spiritual Energy of water. Once one practices the Spiritual Energy of Fire, it will be hard for him to leave the place where he practices. Plus, I don't want a lot of people to know about this!”
Zhou Bao finally understood the whole situation and found himself being foolish.
This place was the Sea Area. The rich Water-property Essential Qi pervaded in the atmosphere here. It could be said that in the boundless Sea Area, the Water-property Essential Qi had the advantage of suppressing all other powers. Who would be silly enough to practice Fire-property Essential Qi, which is in direct opposition to Water-property Essential Qi, in this place? That would be the most useless approach. Unless it was some fella who had physical restrictions, 99% of the people who practiced here would practice with Water-property Essential Qi.
To find someone who practiced with the Spiritual Energy of Fire in the vast Sea Area and a Demonic Immortal with a certain level of practice already would be a tough task.
No wonder once Zhou Bao displayed his strong Fire-property Real Essence, he was immediately invited to see Lan Shui'er on her island.
”So that is to say, Island Owner is set on hatching this spawn of a Primordial Fierce Beast?”
