Divine Enchantress: Night Emperor’s Beloved Consort - Chapter 86

Various cultivators appeared at the outer perimeter of Mount Trux.

They all stopped there because firstly, Mount Trux was dangerous and secondly, they didn’t know where the egg would fall.

So, most of them stayed at the outer perimeter to wait for the arrival of the divine beast’s egg.

Actually, not all of them who came to Mount Trux knew about the arrival of the egg. Some of them came because of the strong pressure, some because they were curious and some because they heard other people’s talk about the characteristic of the dark clouds that is linked to the arrival of divine beast’s egg.

Who could blame them for not knowing? The last time where a divine beast was seen was close to 30 000 years ago. And only nobles and sect elders would know the characteristics of the arrival of divine beast’s egg from ancient texts.

*Rumble*

Thunder was heard followed by flashes of lightning was seen in the cloud.

Wind started started blowing at a fast pace. It was a thunderstorm!

The dark clouds, coupled by loud thunder and strong flashes of intermittent white, yellow and blue lightning scared the people watching it below.

Yes, that was one of the characteristics of the arrival of divine beast.

The minute Jiang Ying Yue formed a contract with Anguo, the Supreme White Dragon in the underground palace, two eggs fell from the sky in the outside world.

Bolts of lightning hit various places at Mount Trux and two carried the eggs.

After the eggs had fallen, strong pressure of divine beast was felt.

Hooray!

The cultivators cheered and scattered around to start finding for the egg. They thought there was only one egg, so no one knew of the existence of the second egg.

At this moment, by a stroke of luck, one of the eggs landed at an area near the black robed man. Just now, he had felt that one of the lightnings carried an egg and it landed near his area.

He didn’t run but instead, he put on a shield in front of him to hold to the impact of the lightning. Although he did put the shield up, it was still broken and he was injured.

But it was just superficial wounds. He took a pill and the wounds on his body started healing.

The black robed man, named Mu Shao Qing, approached the huge egg in front of him. It had red lightning pattern all around it with a white base.

Mu Shao Qing touched the egg. It felt hot and he even got zipped by the remnants of electric current on the egg.

‘So, this was the legendary divine beast’s egg.’

He hurriedly bit his finger and dropped his blood onto the egg, trying to form a contract with the divine beast inside.

It was rather easy to form a contract with a divine beast’s egg compared to when they have hatched or even worse, an adult.

Jiang Ying Yue was lucky that Anguo wanted to follow her on his own will so she didn’t have to tame him.

Magical beasts and divine beasts had their own pride and wouldn’t even want to serve humans. Which was why, beast tamer was an occupation that was respected in the world, just like an alchemist did.

Mu Shao Qing then used his mental energy to form a contract with the egg. He fought the egg’s natural repulsion towards the contract using his mental energy. His nose bled and soon, he managed to defeat the egg thus owning the possession of the divine beast inside, linking it to his soul.

“Master, congratulations on getting the divine beast’s egg. Please don’t let bully me in the future alright?”

A male voice was heard inside his head. It was the sound of a teenager talking to him.

Mu Shao Qing was speechless. This fella was still sulking because he took in another contracted beast? He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

‘Are you sure you are the magnificent Basilisk? The legendary king of serpents?’ He thought.

Yes, the one that just spoke was precisely Basilisk, the legendary king of serpents, also Mu Shao Qing’s first contracted beast. He was an ancient beast but not a divine beast yet.

He could evolve into a divine beast if Mu Shao Qing managed to break through a certain level and it cultivates more though.

But who would’ve known that his ancient beast was this ridiculous? Totally not befitting his scary image at all!

“Yes, yes I won’t let it bully you, Tao.” He said helplessly in his head. He named the ancient beast Tao and was faced with rejection from the beast until he explained that it meant ‘long life’ to him, earning so much of his approval along with boasting that of course he lived a long life.

Mu Shao Qing got the basilisk when he was faced with a few tests at his clan’s secret ground and he passed them all. Among the 5 beasts, this particular beast chose him and wanted to follow him willingly.

Actually, among all 5 of them, he was the strongest beast and the fact that it wanted to follow him baffled Mu Shao Qing greatly.

It was only later that he found out that the beast wanted to serve him because he saw potential in Mu Shao Qing and wanted to be a part of the ‘greatness’ that will follow after his master.

Truly a naughty and prideful beast.

But then now, when he wanted to form a contract with the divine beast’s egg, he had the audacity to scold him in his head and sulked. Then proceeded to ask the divine beast to not bully him in future?

Haha now you know to be scared!

Mu Shao Qing then stored the egg in his space for it to hatch properly. He couldn’t take the risk of carrying the egg around nor putting it in his space ring as no space ring could keep a living being in it.

Of course, Mu Shao Qing had his own space in his body just like Jiang Ying Yue’s. The only different was, this space came from the treasure that was absorbed into his body causing him great pain and to be bedridden for a month.

This showed how hard it was to have get a space in one’s body!

Mu Shao Qing was satisfied and together with his subordinates, they left the mountain to avoid meeting the other cultivators who were searching for the egg.

He knew that there were two eggs that fell from the sky along with the lightning bolts, but one was enough.

In this world, the stronger a person gets, the more contracted beast they could have. Which was why, some people only had one magical beast as their contracted beast in their lifetime. And now, he had two. Both were of superior grades.

It was no use if tried to get the other egg. It would only spell trouble for him.
