Chapter 1077: The Fairy Egg About to Hatch (First Update, seeking all)

In just two or three minutes, the aura of the Ancestral Gold-Scaled Beast surged significantly, and golden Profound Mystery Energy appeared on the surface of its body, transforming into a barely perceptible thin film.

It's done!

Now it just depends on whether the Ancestral Gold-Scaled Beast can fully break through the threshold of Profound Mystery and become a true Demon King.

Time passed slowly, and the Profound Mystery Energy on the surface of the Ancestral Gold-Scaled Beast grew increasingly rich.

After five minutes had passed, Li Zhangsheng faintly heard a shattering sound, and the aura of the Ancestral Gold-Scaled Beast before him surged once more.

Clearly, the Ancestral Gold-Scaled Beast had broken through the threshold of Profound Mystery, becoming yet another Demon King-level Demon Pet for Ning Bizhen.

【Spirit Beast Name】: Geng Metal Gold-Scaled Beast (Growth Stage, Demi-God Beast. Consumed Geng Metal Elite, enhancing the power of Gold Element skills, with a certain armor-piercing effect, and comprehended Geng Metal Divine Thunder. Comprehended Profound Mystery, significantly enhancing skill power; Profound Mystery Guard: Negates partial damage, mainly depending on the opponent's realm.)

【Spirit Beast Realm】: Demon King 1st Rank

【Spirit Beast Race】: High-Level Overlord

【Spirit Beast Quality】: Half-Step Epic Quality 《Better than the worst, but not the best; guaranteed to be able to break through to the Demon King level》

【Spirit Beast Bloodline】: Rushou (Vigorous)

【Spirit Beast Attribute】: Gold Element

【Spirit Beast Status】: Healthy

【Spirit Beast Weakness】: None 《Mysterious Jade Ginseng eliminated the attribute weakness》

The Ancestral Gold-Scaled Beast not only successfully evolved into a Geng Metal Gold-Scaled Beast but also successfully broke through to the Demon King level; coupled with its quality rising to Half-Step Epic, its combat power could definitely be described as having skyrocketed, and it could defeat ten of itself from before the evolution.

As for the inheritance gained by the Geng Metal Gold-Scaled Beast, it also further strengthened its combat power.

After the evolution was complete, the Geng Metal Gold-Scaled Beast first responded to Ning Bizhen, then excitedly ran in front of Li Zhangsheng, flopped directly onto the ground, and exposed its belly.

In the mind of the Geng Metal Gold-Scaled Beast, this was the best way to show friendliness.

Ning Bizhen on the side felt a bit helpless, but she had no intention of protesting; there was no helping it, she had seen similar scenes too many times and was already numb to it.

Whoever has milk is mother; if there's anyone to blame, it's that she had no milk, while Li Zhangsheng did -_-||

With the Geng Metal Gold-Scaled Beast successfully breaking through to the Demon King level, only the Bright Dragon Horse remained among Ning Bizhen's Demon Pets that had yet to break through to the Demon King level.

After teasing the Geng Metal Gold-Scaled Beast for a moment, Li Zhangsheng suddenly remembered something; he had almost forgotten about that sealed Primordial Winged Tiger again—it was all because it lacked presence.

After leaving the Secret Realm, Li Zhangsheng rode Aixi and snuck into the depths of Jushi Ridge.

Soon, Li Zhangsheng stood on a piece of land that appeared flat, and he could feel that the seal of the Primordial Winged Tiger was right before him.

Li Zhangsheng waved his right hand, and ripples invisible to the naked eye appeared, followed by the sudden appearance of a Small Altar.

This Small Altar used a Demon King-level Earth Element Demon Core as the eye of the array and was connected to the nearby earth veins, forming a small Forbidden Array with concealment, illusion, and defensive functions.

Now that he was restarting the Primordial Winged Tiger, it was naturally no longer needed.

Li Zhangsheng easily unlocked the small Forbidden Array, and the Small Altar rapidly shrank to the size of a palm, falling into his palm.

Roar~

The moment the altar disappeared, a tiger roar filled with slight weakness rang out, and immediately after, a massive Primordial Winged Tiger broke out of the seal.

As soon as it escaped the seal, before the Primordial Winged Tiger could even survey its surroundings, it was slapped to the ground by Aixi, unable to stop a mournful cry from escaping.

Both were Primordial Winged Tigers, but Aixi's strength was no longer what it used to be; its size alone was two or three times larger than the other, just like the difference between a big cat and a small cat.

The Primordial Winged Tiger struggled a few times, but the result was helpless; Aixi's right paw felt like a great mountain, pressing down so hard it couldn't catch its breath.

Most importantly, the Primordial Winged Tiger was already in a weakened state due to the loss of a large amount of Spirit Essence, and having been sealed for nearly a year, it simply couldn't exert much strength.

Li Zhangsheng couldn't be bothered to waste words with the Primordial Winged Tiger and directly took it into the Secret Realm.

"Aixi, I'll leave it to you; make sure you train it well!"

Roar~

Aixi agreed full of confidence and also entered the Secret Realm to begin training its kin.

Li Zhangsheng mourned for this Primordial Winged Tiger for a moment and was just about to close the Secret Realm when Kailan, who had already recovered her health, voluntarily flew out from the Secret Realm.

"Zhangsheng, that egg has movement!"

Li Zhangsheng was slightly stunned for a moment, then remembered something.

Several months ago, in the Mucang Empire, Li Zhangsheng 'looted' all the Fairy Egg shops in the Imperial Capital and had a bountiful harvest, which even included a Fairy Egg of higher than Superior Quality.

Except for this Fairy Egg, all the other Fairy Eggs were handed over to Li Wan and her daughter to take care of, while this Fairy Egg was kept in the Secret Realm, usually looked after by Ning Bizhen, Kailan, and Xiaoguai.

The fact that this Fairy Egg now had movement indicated that it had entered the hatching state.

Li Zhangsheng immediately entered the Secret Realm with Kailan, and in the blink of an eye, they were shifted to the Central Medicine Garden.

The Central Medicine Garden had the highest energy density and was also the most suitable for hatching Fairy Eggs.

On the branches of the Tree of Life sat a bird's nest made entirely of Tree of Life Branch, and inside lay a small Fairy Egg, constantly nourished by the rich natural aura.

Ning Bizhen and Xiaoguai stood quietly to the side, their eyes fixed on the Fairy Egg in the nest without blinking.

By the time Li Zhangsheng entered, several cracks had already appeared on the surface of this Fairy Egg, and it looked as if the life inside was about to hatch.

"Xiaoguai and I will go out for a while."

Given that newly born Spirit Beasts often mistake the first life they see for their 'mother', Ning Bizhen wanted to take the initiative to pull Xiaoguai out to avoid suspicion and leave this place to Li Zhangsheng.

"Bizhen, no need; I no longer have any contract slots left. It's better if Xiaoguai and I go out. Hmm, from now on, I'll leave it to you to take care of."

Li Zhangsheng didn't care what kind of Spirit Beast this Fairy Egg would hatch, nor did he care about Ning Bizhen's refusal; he directly picked up Xiaoguai and retreated a distance.

Ever since he contracted the Horned Dragon, Li Zhangsheng had no extra contract slots.

Ning Bizhen had contracted a total of nine Demon Pets: the Sun Fire Crow, Long-Eared Cold Jade Rabbit, Nine Heavens Xun Wind Cat, Green-Eyed Gold-Eyed Beast, Lesser Ancestral Red Dragon, Eight-Armed Naga, Eight-Eyed Marten, Bright Dragon Horse, and Geng Metal Gold-Scaled Beast.

If they haven't absorbed special treasures, a King can sign a total of ten Demon Pets, and Ning Bizhen still had one carrying slot vacant.

This Spirit Beast was at the very least of Half-Step Epic Quality, and no matter what kind of Spirit Beast it was, it would be a good addition for Ning Bizhen.

Of course, it was also possible that it belonged to a Divine Beast, though this possibility was extremely slim, almost negligible.

Li Zhangsheng held Xiaoguai and retreated a thousand meters; even from such a distance, he could clearly see the scene a thousand meters away with the naked eye.

While waiting, the cracks on the surface of the Fairy Egg gradually increased.
