Chapter 210: The Hatch

Then Wang Tianshan and Lin Shiru took Ye Xuan to a place he used for seclusion.
Watching them leaving, Tang Mengxia and the other trainee Beast Tamers all felt jealous of Ye Xuan.
Stunned by that Holy Fiery Red Luan’s appearance, they had been looking forward to seeing what its baby would be like for a long time.
However, unfortunately, it was Ye Xuan who obtained the egg.
“Ye Xuan, are you sure you want to contract with the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan now?”
A few minutes later, Wang Tianshan led Ye Xuan into a spacious lobby.
He waved his hand as soon as they arrived. The egg that the Holy Fiery Red Luan had given to Ye Xuan instantly showed up out of thin air. Then it fell to the center of the lobby.
Gazing at the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan, Wang Tianshan asked Ye Xuan, “In my opinion, you’d better wait a little bit.”
“It would be the best if you try to contract with the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan when you have achieved the Gold level.”
“I think you must know that we Beast Tamers can contract with oviparous monsters.”
“And we can help accelerate the hatch after we have contracted with them.”
“However, if a Silver-level Beast Tamer like you contracts with a beast that could achieve the Gold level as soon as it is born.”
“Its cultivation level will drop to the limit that you can handle when it is born.”
“This limit might be the peak Silver level. It could also be the high, or the intermediate, or the low Silver level.”
“Even its grade will drop as well.”
“But such problems will not exist if you achieve the Gold level first.”
“Mr. Wang, I don’t want to wait. I want to contract with it now.”
Shaking his head, Ye Xuan said.
Wang Tianshan had already told him the same thing on their way back.
But unfortunately, Ye Xuan would not listen to him.
In fact, what Wang Tianshan said made a lot of sense.
However, Ye Xuan did not want to wait any longer.
He wanted to contract with the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan right away.
Because he needed a beast on the peak Silver level with good potential.
What grade it could achieve after it was born was not very important for him.
In fact, Ye Xuan would rather contract with a three-star or four-star beast on the peak Silver level as long as it had good potential.
Because according to what he had learned recently.
It was impossible to edit most of the five-star beasts on the Silver level in the Beast Editor.
Besides, it was only possible to edit a few of the four-star beasts on the Silver level in the Beast Editor.
In contrast, he could edit all three-star beasts on the Silver level in the Beast Editor.
Therefore, if he could get a three-star beast on the peak Silver level.
And if he could get the appropriate resources at the same time.
He might be able to edit it right away.
Generally speaking, the cultivation level of the beasts he edited in the Beast Editor would improve to some degree.
In that way, he might get a Gold-level beast right away.
Unfortunately, he had spent a lot of time looking for a beast like that in the Bujin Mountain area.
But he failed to find any suitable one.
As the second-best option, a four-star beast on the peak Silver level would also do.
Because a beast with this grade would drop to three stars as soon as it achieved the Gold level.
In that case, he would be able to edit it in the Beast Editor again.
Then he might get a five-star beast on the high Gold level very soon.
Therefore, in either of the two cases, it simply would be better than having a five-star beast on the Silver level in the first place.
Ye Xuan realized that only recently.
He found it would be better for him to contract with beasts with a lower grade.
Of course, it would also cost him more resources if he went that way.
“Okay. Now that you want to contract with it, now go ahead.”
Wang Tianshan did not insist.
In fact, in his opinion, Ye Xuan was so talented that he could achieve the Gold level in only a few months.
It would be better if he could wait a little bit instead of doing it right away.
After all, it was only a few months. It was not like he would have to postpone the contracting for a few years.
If he insisted on hatching the Holy Fiery Red Luan egg right away, he would cause a big waste of its talent.
However, Ye Xuan was its owner.
Since Ye Xuan did not want to wait, he certainly could not stop Ye Xuan from doing what he wanted to do.
“Okay.”
Ye Xuan nodded at Wang Tianshan.
Then he shifted his consciousness to send out one of the Seeds of Beasts in his Spirit Ocean. That Seed of Beasts went towards the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan directly.
Swish!
His Seed of Beasts went into the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan in an instant.
Then he shifted his consciousness again.
And he sensed one after another very weak Mind Ripple through the Seed of Beasts.
And that Mind Ripple did not seem to be rejective.
“As I thought, it is easier to contract with oviparous monsters when they are still an egg.”
Ye Xuan thought. Then he maneuvered his Seed of Beasts towards the core of the soul of the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan at high speed.
“Eh?”
Simultaneously, somewhere deep in the Bujin Mountain area, the Holy Fiery Red Luan suddenly opened its red eyes when Ye Xuan had started to contract with its egg. It looked into the distance.
As if it was staring at Ye Xuan, watching everything he did.
“He is going to contract with my alter ego when he is still on the Silver level?”
It murmured, “Well, whether you can survive will completely depend on your luck then!”
Its body suddenly gave a violent shake after the murmuring.
Countless dark air emerged from its body all of a sudden.
Those dark air turned into an evil-looking humanoid after it had been driven out of the Holy Fiery Red Luan’s body.
That humanoid looked hideous.
It seemed to be surprised that it had been driven out.
“You have not given up yet, have you?”
However, looking at the Holy Fiery Red Luan in front of it, it roared and was going to jump on the red luan again.
The Holy Fiery Red Luan only gazed at it coldly.
Then it flapped its wings. With the Holy Fiery Red Luan being the center, numerous luminous red patterns suddenly showed up within a range of dozens of feet.
With the Holy Fiery Red Luan as the core, those red patterns instantly intertwined with each other.
Surprisingly, they formed a giant formation made of fire.
The evil-looking humanoid the Holy Fiery Red Luan had driven out of its body instantly got trapped in the formation of fire that had just taken shape.
“Ah!”
In an instant, while the fire was burning, that evil-looking humanoid screamed like hell.
“You… You will never be able to kill me. Never.”
However, besides screaming, the evil-looking humanoid would also burst out laughing from time to time. The noises it made were terrifying and spooky.
“You have been completely entangled in my Evil Soul Agreement. Even if you kill me now, I will be reborn in your Spirit Ocean immediately.”
“Although I will be much weaker after the rebirth, the connection between you and me will be even closer. And I will be able to take in more strength from you very soon. You will never be able to get rid of me!”
Boom!
However, the Holy Fiery Red Luan was not affected at all by the evil-looking humanoid’s threat.
It maneuvered the formation of fire around it decisively. The formation of fire burst into dazzling flames instantly.
The evil-looking humanoid burnt into ashes after a blare.
When all this had been over, the Holy Fiery Red Luan took back the flames around it right away. The flames turned into a mark that got branded onto the center of its forehead.
Buzz!
When the Holy Fiery Red Luan had burnt the evil-looking humanoid into ashes.
At the Tianshan Base, Ye Xuan suddenly sensed something as his Seed of Beasts approached the core of the soul of the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan.
He found countless unexpected black air was oozing out of its core.
Those black air even turned into a vague hideous-looking humanoid that jumped on his Seed of Beasts.
“What the hell?”
Ye Xuan turned a little pale at the sight of the hideous-looking humanoid.
He had contracted with more than one beast.
However, he had never seen this happening in the middle of contracting with a beast.
“A Beast Tamer? A Seed of Beasts?”
When Ye Xuan had turned slightly pale, the humanoid transformed from the evil air oozing out of the core of the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan was also surprised.
And it was somewhat struck dumb.
It had no idea how come it had arrived at such a weak Spirit Ocean after this rebirth.
And a Beast Tamer was going to contract with the monster it was going to possess?
“Eh?”
However, feeling weird about the current situation, the humanoid took a closer look at Ye Xuan’s Seed of Beasts. Then it immediately felt relieved.
“Okay! That is only a Beast Tamer on the Silver level!”
It was relieved by the energy it had detected from Ye Xuan’s Seed of Beasts.
“How dare an insignificant Silver-level Beast Tamer to compete against me for the monster I have chosen to possess?”
With that thought in mind, it instantly dashed towards Ye Xuan’s Seed of Beasts, as if it was going to invade his Seed of Beasts, too.
Sizzle!
However, a sizzle came as soon as the evil energy from it got in contact with Ye Xuan’s Seed of Beasts. Then, like snow under the sun.
A large part of the evil energy got melted in an instant.
Even half of the evil-looking humanoid itself got destroyed after this crash with Ye Xuan’s Seed of Beasts.
“Bastard!”
The evil-looking humanoid roared right away in both anger and fear.
It could not figure out how come the Seed of Beasts of an insignificant Silver-level Beast Tamer like Ye Xuan turned out to be so powerful.
Even its evil energy got destroyed.
Wasn’t the result supposed to be the reverse?
“Is it so weak?”
At this moment, Ye Xuan did not show any mercy after having found the evil-looking humanoid only looked terrifying, but in fact, it was not very threatening at all.
Seeing it fleeing, he maneuvered his Seed of Beasts to chase it right away.
“Damn it!”
The evil-looking humanoid wanted to hide from Ye Xuan’s Seed of Beasts.
However, it was newly reborn, and the Spirit Ocean it was reborn from was extremely weak.
As a result, its strength was also fragile.
Consequently, Ye Xuan’s Seed of Beasts caught up with it only in an instant.
Then, it was devastated by Ye Xuan completely with a puff.
“Damn it! Damn it! Let’s wait and see. I will absolutely be back…”
Whoosh!
However, when the evil-looking humanoid had been devastated, its roar still lingered in the air, as if it was going to revenge itself on Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan maneuvered his Seed of Beasts to dodge it. Then the Seed of Beasts whooshed into the core of the soul of the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan.
As soon as his Seed of Beasts entered there, Ye Xuan found through it that there was an odd black symbol branded on the core of the soul of the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan.
And that black symbol was flashing incessantly at that moment.
As if it was taking in some energy so that it could be reborn.
“What the hell is that?”
At the sight of that, Ye Xuan shifted his consciousness to maneuver his Seed of Beasts to dash over towards the black symbol. His Seed of Beasts then crashed into it.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
Some black air instantly got released from the spooky symbol.
And the symbol completely disappeared in a few seconds.
Shriek!
When Ye Xuan had got rid of the black symbol, he sensed a joy transmitted to him through his Seed of Beasts.
“Are you in a good mood?”
“Well, come out of the egg as soon as possible now that you are in a good mood. I am dying to see what you are like.”
Ye Xuan took his consciousness back when he had sensed that emotion.
Creak! Creak!
When he had taken his consciousness back, he suddenly saw the egg of the Holy Fiery Red Luan in front of him start to crack.
Then a red light oozed out of the cracks on the egg.
Simultaneously, in the lobby, Ye Xuan, Lin Shiru, and Wang Tianshan all felt one after another hot wave sweeping over towards them.
