Chapter 625: Star-Swallowing Beast? (Seeking monthly votes)

Lin Qi frowned, looking curiously at the black egg in his hand, which was extremely cold to the touch. What could be inside?

He released his mental power to perceive continuously; this egg no longer had any vitality.

No, it should be said that the vitality was extremely weak.

The moment it was taken out, the surrounding source energy particles seemed to be attracted, gathering toward the egg.

"Buzz!"

Then he operated 【Golden Pupil】, energy vision activated, wanting to see the object inside through the eggshell.

In an instant, he saw...!

Inside the eggshell, there was only a large amount of liquid, just like an egg, with only a mass of golden substance, containing a thick aura of life.

"What kind of creature's egg is this?"

"Xiao Chan, check it!"

"Okay!"

Lin Qi spoke, and Xiao Chan beside him released green light from her eyes, quickly scanning the entire black egg.

Lin Qi was also comparing the appearance of various demon eggs.

"Master, according to the detection, there is an 80% probability that it is a Star-Swallowing Beast egg, a 15% probability that it is a Prison-Suppressing Beast egg, and a 5% probability that it is a special life Celestial Gold Beast egg."

After scanning, Xiao Chan projected three screens, each showing three different giant beasts; they had huge bodies and emitted terrifying auras.

Each one possessed power that could destroy the world.

"Star-Swallowing Beast?"

Lin Qi could be sure it was a Star-Swallowing Beast; an 80% probability was already certain.

He showed a curious look; in the "Encyclopedia of Myriad Races in the Universe," the most were introductions about the demon race, and the demon race was divided into many races.

The demon race focused on bloodline cultivation; the life of many demon races could be seen from what race they were.

Their lower limit was terrifyingly high; as long as there were no accidents, they could reach the Universe Second Realm, which was the tenth-level realm, upon adulthood.

As for the upper limit in the future, it required the demon race's own efforts and opportunities.

The demon race was a more powerful existence than disaster beasts; disaster beasts were cannon fodder they created.

It was one of the peak races among the myriad races in the universe; its overall strength was on par with the human race, and slightly stronger than the Zerg.

According to the data obtained, demon beasts of the same realm were more powerful than disaster beasts in speed, strength, defense, and intelligence.

Especially intelligence, they were no less than humans, and even smarter.

Except for overall comprehension, which was not as good as the human race, they possessed huge body power, extremely strong lower limits, and long lives.

"In the human race, many powerful martial practitioners will raise demon beasts as pets or mounts!"

"And the demon race is the same!"

Lin Qi looked at the demon beast egg, and two ideas instantly popped into his mind: either sell it.

Or keep it himself, striving to hatch it, and in the future, maybe their Blue Star would have a demon beast of at least the Universe Second Realm guarding it.

Even being able to command disaster beasts to kill each other, no matter how you look at it, there were many benefits.

The Universe Second Realm was no longer a weakling in the entire universe; it could already roam the starry sky, and even manage dozens of life planets.

Their Blue Star had more than two hundred Ninth Realm martial practitioners, but the probability of being able to break through to the Universe Second Realm was definitely less than 50%.

According to the statistics in the Mount Lieyang Dao Academy, among Void Piercing Realm martial practitioners, only one in a thousand could break through.

Their Blue Star generally had slightly better talent, but the probability wouldn't be too high.

As for the Universe Third Realm, unless one awakened more than two abilities, it was basically impossible to reach.

Their Blue Star also only had a few people who had the opportunity to break through.

And now, he had the opportunity to obtain such a demon beast that would 100% become a Universe Second Realm existence.

"Should I hatch it?"

Xiao Chan on the side said:

"Master, the vitality in this egg is too weak, and the probability of hatching is extremely low." 【625

"It requires paying expensive resources."

After hearing this, Lin Qi felt Xiao Chan was right; he was too poor now, and if he spent a large amount of Deep Space Coins,

it would inevitably affect his own cultivation. Looking at the black egg, it only had a faint vitality.

"I need to find someone to ask what resources are needed to be able to afford it."

Lin Qi was still a bit reluctant; being able to obtain a Star-Swallowing Beast egg was not an ordinary opportunity.

The Star-Swallowing Beast is not quite the same as other demon races, as can be seen from its name.

It feeds on swallowing stars!

Its lower limit is extremely terrifying; as an adult, it is a top-tier existence of the Universe Second Realm.

Its upper limit is very high; if its bloodline mutates, it might reach the existence of the Universe Third Realm, or even the Universe Fourth Realm.

He could foresee that as long as word got out, countless people in the entire universe would head to their Blue Star.

He guessed that this Star-Swallowing Beast egg was Xie Luo's opportunity; he definitely wanted to hatch it.

However, it required a large amount of resources, and he had no money, making it very difficult to purchase cultivation resources.

And the trial planet of their Blue Star was exactly what he wanted.

No need to buy it; he could just find it directly within the trial planet.

Thinking of this, Lin Qi took out his phone and found the contact information for the Red Emperor.

Among all the people he knew, the only one who was trustworthy and strong was the Red Emperor.

"Beep!"

A moment later, a screen was projected in front of Lin Qi, and the Red Emperor's resolute and handsome face appeared on the other side.

Looking at Lin Qi, he revealed a smile and said:

"Lin Qi, it's so late; what's the matter?"

Lin Qi apologized: "Master, sorry to disturb you so late; there is something I need to ask your advice on!"

Lin Qi held up the Star-Swallowing Beast egg and briefly recounted the process.

Hearing this, the Red Emperor revealed a surprised expression:

"Your luck is truly good; to be able to obtain a Star-Swallowing Beast egg, even I envy your luck."

"If I am not mistaken, this should be a defective product."

"Star-Swallowing Beasts are rare in number, and each Star-Swallowing Beast can only produce 3~5 offspring in its lifetime!"

"Yours should have been born while the Star-Swallowing Beast was in a near-death state, and it didn't receive sufficient energy!"

"Although it can autonomously absorb source energy, being placed in a space bracelet without source energy replenishment, it might completely lose its vitality in a few years."

"The longer the time, the weaker the vitality."

"If it were just placed on Blue Star and allowed to autonomously absorb source energy, perhaps after tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands or millions of years, it could hatch."

"This is the formidable aspect of the Star-Swallowing Beast; once hatched, it will 100% become an existence of the Universe Second Realm in the future."

"Congratulations on obtaining a good opportunity."

Lin Qi nodded; the Red Emperor indeed didn't care about his opportunity.

And it turned out this Star-Swallowing Beast egg could still be saved.

It's just that the recovery time is too long.

At the latest, it would actually take tens of thousands of years; he is only 21 years old now and is about to break through to the Air-Traversing Realm soon.

In ten thousand years, he doesn't even know what realm he will have broken through to.

By then, the opportunity would have long passed, and he could have obtained better demon beasts.

So he smiled bitterly:

"This time is too long; is there a faster way to hatch it?"

The Red Emperor smiled: "Naturally, there is!"

"On the exchange list of the Home of War, there is a heavenly treasure called Ten-Thousand-Year Stone Milk, which possesses astonishing vitality."

"It can bring the dead back to life!"

"Even a severely injured Universe Second Realm martial artist can instantly recover!"

"The effect is ten thousand times that of Life Water!"

"Of course, its price is also more expensive; it requires 1 million Deep Space Coins to exchange for one drop!"

Hearing this, Lin Qi gasped.

1 million Deep Space Coins; even if he sold himself, he couldn't scrape together that many Deep Space Coins.

And this would inevitably affect his own cultivation.

"I've thought about it, and I'm not in a hurry to hatch the Star-Swallowing Beast egg." Lin Qi shook his head with a bitter smile.

The Red Emperor continued:

"Have you forgotten about Relic No. 9?"

"With your current strength, as long as you pass the test of the Acupoint-Refining Realm, you can choose inheritances, cultivation resources, heavenly treasures, equipment, weapons..."

"There is a high probability that there will be Ten-Thousand-Year Stone Milk among them!"

Lin Qi's eyes lit up; this was indeed a good method.

A good place where he could get things for free.

So he immediately thanked him:

"Many thanks for the guidance, Master!"

The Red Emperor nodded and smiled: "I also hope you can successfully hatch it."

"As long as it's on Blue Star, no one can take your Star-Swallowing Beast away."

"And you can break through to the Air-Traversing Realm as soon as possible!"

"The time for the Deep Space Genius Competition is getting closer and closer!"

……

After closing the video.

Lin Qi placed the Star-Swallowing Beast egg in a corner; he could already feel that it was automatically absorbing the source energy in the air.

"Next is to consider when to head to Relic No. 9."

Lin Qi thought secretly; he planned to wait until he had opened 107 acupoints before heading there.

Although he was confident in his strength, he had to ensure everything was foolproof.

Or waiting until he had opened 106 acupoints would also work; opening the remaining one after entering Relic No. 9 seemed to be in time as well.

After hesitating for a moment, he still planned to wait until he reached the peak of the Acupoint-Refining Realm before entering Relic No. 9.

"Hoo~"

After calming his mood, Lin Qi also entered a state of cultivation.

He was still too weak and needed to become more powerful.
