Chapter 287: Divine Beast Egg!

Fifty percent!

Looking at this enhancement effect that could be called terrifying.

Gu Han almost couldn't help but exclaim.

Against any enemy in a bleeding state, all damage is increased by fifty percent!

Moreover, this passive skill can also increase the chance of enemies bleeding.

Even without this boost, normal combat still has a high chance of causing bleeding.

Even with inner armor protection, a single spear or sword strike to the body will basically cause bleeding.

This also means that this fifty percent boost effect is almost a permanent state!

This is absolutely a tremendous boost to Gu Han's offensive capability.

After a while, Gu Han then turned his attention to the fourth message notification.

The fourth treasure chest yielded something rather ordinary.

Although for any faction, a vein of Hundred-Pattern Black Crystal Iron is absolutely priceless.

It can be used to forge a large batch of weapons and armor.

Weapons and armor made from Hundred-Pattern Black Crystal Iron, although they don't significantly boost top-tier combat power.

But for mid-tier combat power, they provide enormous benefit!

However, for Gu Han, the spirit veins and ore veins taken over from the He Family by the Gu Family are enough to sustain the family's expenses for a period of time.

Therefore he decisively threw this vein directly into the system's storage space.

As soon as the vein appeared, the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear lunged at it ferociously, like a starving glutton.

Gu Han's divine sense felt the sound of chewing the refined iron, making his scalp tingle involuntarily.

Only the Dawn Dragon Roar Spear can swallow something like this!

Immediately afterward, Gu Han's gaze fell on the last pet egg.

Strictly speaking, Gu Han currently possesses only one battle pet.

The Water Moon Wolf King, that is, Little Wolf.

Although the Heavenly Universe Spirit Ginseng is also by his side, they are equal partners, not a battle pet.

Although Gu Han would not enslave battle pets, this relationship still needs to be clarified.

This pet egg shimmered with flowing light, various colors flashing one after another.

Divine Beast Egg: Possibly hatch into any kind of divine beast chick from the myriad worlds.

Divine Beast!

Although Gu Han had many concepts of divine beasts in his mind.

For example, the White Marsh, Nine-Tailed Fox, Golden Crow, One-legged Ox, and Auspicious Beast from past-world myths and legends, etc.

Also, divine beasts from various animations and novels.

For example, Yveltal, Solgaleo, Rayquaza, and even the creator god Arceus from the Pokémon world, etc.

There are countless divine beasts.

But in this world, Gu Han has never heard anyone mention the concept of divine beasts.

"Looking at the system's description, the hatching of this Divine Beast Egg seems to depend somewhat on luck."

Gu Han rubbed his chin,

"But relying on luck, I've always been best at it!"

He excitedly rubbed his hands, first returning to the room to wash his face, then sitting cross-legged.

The Divine Beast Egg hovered above Gu Han's legs, as if waiting for him to hatch it.

"Hatch!"

As Gu Han's words fell, the Divine Beast Egg emitted a crisp cracking sound.

But he didn't wait for the Divine Beast Egg to shatter; instead, he watched helplessly as it grew larger and larger!

In just two or three breaths, the Divine Beast Egg expanded from the size of a normal soccer ball to that of a millstone.

Moreover, it still had the momentum to keep expanding!

"Holy crap, the situation is bad!"

Gu Han's face changed drastically; if the Divine Beast Egg kept expanding, the room probably couldn't contain it.

He quickly took out the previously used Space Scroll, already on the verge of breaking, and flew straight into it with the Divine Beast Egg.

Within the Scroll Space, the Divine Beast Egg seemed to let loose, expanding at an extremely rapid speed.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Just its bodily expansion brought wave after wave of surging air currents.

The fierce wind blew Gu Han's hair flying!

"Good grief, what the heck kind of divine beast is this going to hatch into?!"

As the Divine Beast Egg expanded to the size of a sports field, it finally gradually stopped its expansion.

Gu Han looked up at the enormous pet egg from the ground, its powerful visual impact giving him a feeling of unparalleled shock.

"I think… I've figured out what kind of divine beast it will be."

As Gu Han's murmured voice faded, fierce winds rose within the Scroll Space!

Wave after wave of spirit energy vortices gathered, forming a surge almost like a tornado!

And at the center of the surge, lo and behold, was the pet egg!

Immediately after, the sound of the eggshell breaking rang out again.

Waves of roars, like those of an ancient giant beast, echoed across the horizon.

These gusts of wind, as if summoned by their king, piously swirled around the pet egg.

As the pet egg gradually cracked.

One head, one body, one tail— a creature that blotted out the sky and covered the earth, like a mountain range spanning the heavens and the ground, appeared in the air.

This giant beast looked like a huge fish growing massive wings!

That enormous mouth could probably swallow a small hill whole!

"In the Northern Dark there is a fish, its name is Giant Fish; the Giant Fish is so huge it cannot be cooked in one pot."

Recalling the famous divine beast of his past life, Gu Han curled the corner of his mouth.

This thing— not even one pot, even ten thousand or a hundred thousand pots, probably couldn't stew it!

In Gu Han's past life, other divine beasts might also have been widely known.

But in terms of fame, the Giant Fish was definitely among the best.

The reason is probably because of Zhuangzi's masterpiece, "Free and Easy Wandering".

When Gu Han watched this divine beast egg swell to the size of a sports field.

He already had this guess in his mind.

Just after hatching from the divine beast egg, it already had such a huge size.

Probably only a Giant Fish‑Bird could have done that!

Gu Han summoned the Thunder Patrol Wings, flew up, and gazed at the Giant Fish‑Bird from afar.

Its silvery‑white long whiskers looked sturdy yet carried a hint of heaviness.

Although its eyes were still childish, Gu Han could see in them an arrogant disdain for everything!

The Giant Fish‑Bird's huge eyeballs rested on Gu Han,

"Are you my Father Emperor?"

Hearing the Giant Fish‑Bird's voice, Gu Han was startled.

"You… can speak?"

Little Wolf has already reached five‑star rank but still cannot speak human words.

The Phantom Night Snow Fox King is a six‑star demon beast, and likewise cannot speak.

Heavenly Universe Spirit Ginseng can speak, because it is a naturally occurring heaven‑earth treasure, and from birth it is equivalent to a six‑star demon beast.

Equal to the strength of a human Martial Venerable!

"Father Emperor, don't look down on me!"

The Giant Fish‑Bird's voice, like the Great Bell's grand tone, again echoed in Gu Han's ears.

"Merely human language— just a refined version of the ancient tongue; I only need to think, and I can easily master it!"

Ancient language?

Gu Han's heart stirred slightly.

After coming to this world, he found that its language was extremely similar to the former Chinese.

To say they share the same root and origin is not an exaggeration.

That's why he could master this language in an extremely short time.

Judging by the Giant Fish‑Bird's words, perhaps the languages of the two worlds share a common source?
