Ye Chuan glanced at Lan Xiaoke, then lowered his head to look at the white giant egg in her arms. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that this thing had some deep connection with the group of celestial beasts behind them.
“They wouldn’t listen to you, so you took their egg?”
Lan Xiaoke immediately shook her head and hugged the white giant egg even tighter.
“I didn’t take it. It rolled over to my feet all by itself and insisted on coming with me.”
As if to prove she wasn’t lying, the white giant egg trembled twice, then deliberately nestled itself deeper into Lan Xiaoke’s arms.
Lan Xiaoke instantly looked pleased with herself. Raising her chin, she said, “See? Blue Eggy admitted it itself. I was only respecting its choice.”
“You’ve already named it Blue Eggy?”
“What else would I call it?”
Ye Chuan reached out and tapped the eggshell twice. Two dull knocks quickly sounded from within. It seemed the egg truly had no objections to the careless name.
“Your naming skills are just as random as your reasons for picking things up.”
“Nonsense! Blue Eggy is a wonderful name!”
While the two of them were talking, the celestial beasts behind them had already caught up. The crimson giant lion at the very front spread open its wings, and a scarlet sun spanning ten thousand li began to condense in its mouth.
Terrifying heat swept across the entire plain. Wherever it passed, the golden grass and trees instantly turned to ash, while even the surrounding space warped and twisted from the scorching flames.
Lan Xiaoke hugged the giant egg and hid behind Ye Chuan with the practiced ease of someone who had done it countless times.
“Ye Chuan, they don’t seem to accept explanations.”
“I noticed.”
Ye Chuan raised his head toward the descending scarlet sun and casually said, “Stop.”
The instant his voice fell, the surrounding fire and spatial laws solidified at the same time. The sun, powerful enough to incinerate an ordinary Grand Luo Golden Immortal, actually stopped in midair.
It was not only the sun. The several thousand celestial beasts charging from behind also seemed to have slammed into an invisible wall, all of them frozen in their charging poses.
The wind ceased to blow. The waves of grass froze in midair. The entire Celestial Beast Plain seemed to have been forcibly placed on pause by some unseen power.
Lan Xiaoke poked her head out from behind Ye Chuan. When she saw that the beasts truly were no longer moving, she immediately hugged the white giant egg and walked to the front.
“Hehehe, I told you not to chase me. Now do you know you were wrong?”
The crimson giant lion at the very front still had fury in its eyes, but its body was completely suppressed by the laws of heaven and earth. It could not move even a single claw.
Lan Xiaoke walked around it once, then even reached out and stroked its flaming mane.
“It’s pretty soft. I should pluck some off and take it home to make a scarf.”
The fury in the crimson giant lion’s eyes grew even more intense.
“Fine. For Blue Eggy’s sake, I won’t take anything from you today.”
The various Immortal Sect powerhouses watching from outside had only just managed to calm down somewhat after the end of Myriad Laws City. Now, their emotions were thrown into turmoil once again.
Ye Chuan had just devoured the Myriad Laws True Body, and in the blink of an eye, he had immobilized several thousand celestial beasts with a single word. Among them were even more than a dozen ancient ferocious beasts in the late Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm.
An Immortal Sect elder spoke with difficulty. “The Word Command he obtained in Myriad Laws City can already affect such a vast area?”
The elder from the Myriad Laws Immortal Sect remained silent for a moment.
“He is commanding the surrounding world to cooperate with him.”
“A peak Grand Luo Golden Immortal commanding an entire stretch of heaven and earth?”
The person beside him could not help repeating the words. Yet after hearing them several times, he still found them completely unreasonable.
Ye Chuan himself did not feel that he had done anything particularly astonishing. He merely looked toward the giant egg in Lan Xiaoke’s arms and noticed that a miniature starry sky was gradually appearing across its shell.
Tiny stars slowly revolved along the surface of the eggshell. Every time their light flickered, the bloodlines within the nearby celestial beasts would visibly ripple.
The crimson giant lion, whose eyes had been filled with fury moments ago, soon became filled with awe. Its enormous body even began struggling desperately to lower its head.
Ye Chuan noticed the change and casually released the seal formed by his Word Command.
Once the several thousand celestial beasts regained their ability to move, they did not continue charging forward. Instead, they simultaneously knelt before the white giant egg.
Thunderous roars erupted across the entire Celestial Beast Plain. The sound gathered into a tidal wave that spread all the way to the other regions of the Ancient Realm of Myriad Daos.
Lan Xiaoke hugged the egg and stood there in a daze for a moment. Then her eyes grew brighter and brighter.
“Blue Eggy, are you actually their boss?”
The white giant egg shook twice, as if it were extremely pleased by those words.
Outside, the white-haired old man stared at the projection for a long time. The complicated expression on his face had now completely transformed into shock.
“That isn’t an ordinary celestial beast egg.”
“That is the egg of a Starry Beast Emperor!”
When they heard the words “Starry Beast Emperor,” many of the nearby Immortal Sect powerhouses looked confused. Clearly, they had never heard of such an ancient bloodline.
The white-haired old man took a deep breath and continued, “The Starry Beast Emperor is not a life-form native to the Profound Heaven Continent. It is a royal bloodline brought back by the Immortal Emperor from a shattered starry-sky world all those years ago.”
“As long as this bloodline grows successfully, it can reach the Immortal King realm at the very least. If it completely awakens the starry-sky origin within its body, it may even possess the potential to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm!”
The moment those words fell, the entrance to the Ancient Realm of Myriad Daos erupted once again.
The potential to become an Immortal Emperor.
Such an existence would be treated as the most important foundation of any Immortal Sect. No one would consider it excessive for a sect to spend most of its resources cultivating one.
Yet now, this Beast Emperor egg with the potential to become an Immortal Emperor had actually been picked up by Lan Xiaoke from the side of the road!
An Immortal Sect elder could not help asking, “Why would it choose that girl of its own accord?”
The white-haired old man looked at Lan Xiaoke, who was currently wiping dust off the Beast Emperor egg. After remaining silent for a long while, he realized that he could not answer the question either.
After entering the Ancient Realm, Ye Chuan had shattered the Desolate Beast King with three punches, subdued the Myriad Laws City Lord, and taken the core marks of two major regions.
Lan Xiaoke, who was traveling alongside Ye Chuan, was just as outrageous. She had merely taken a walk by the lakeside, yet she had somehow picked up a Starry Beast Emperor egg with the potential to become an Immortal Emperor.
Just what kind of monsters had the Supreme Unity Immortal Sect taken in?
While everyone was still in shock, several cultivators near the Celestial Beast Plain were also drawn over by the starry phenomenon. They soon arrived from different directions.
The person leading them wore a black robe embroidered with patterns of various exotic beasts. At his side followed a purple-winged demonic dragon in the late Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm.
He was the most outstanding Beast-Taming Prodigy of the Myriad Beasts Immortal Sect’s current generation. His personal strength might not have been considered top-tier, but with a large number of contracted immortal beasts at his command, his ranking on the Heaven’s Pride Stele had remained firmly within the top forty.
When he saw the white giant egg in Lan Xiaoke’s arms, the greed in his eyes was almost impossible to conceal.
“Miss, I am willing to offer ten billion Dao Immortal Crystals in exchange for the beast egg in your arms.”
Lan Xiaoke’s eyes visibly flickered when she heard the figure of ten billion. She lowered her head and looked at Blue Eggy in her arms.
The white giant egg immediately nestled itself deeper into her embrace.
Lan Xiaoke promptly shook her head.
“No sale. It already has the surname Lan.”
The Beast-Taming Prodigy frowned slightly.
“The Starry Beast Emperor is no ordinary immortal beast. With your cultivation and beast-taming methods, you simply cannot make it truly acknowledge you as its master.”
Although raising a Starry Beast Emperor was incredibly difficult, once it matured, it would at the very least become an Immortal King. That alone was enough to make every faction in the Eastern Wasteland envious.
Not to mention its potential to become an Immortal Emperor.
That was enough to drive anyone mad.
“It already acknowledged me.”
“This is merely the instinct of a young beast. It hasn’t even hatched yet, so it has no idea who would truly make a suitable master.”
Lan Xiaoke lowered her head and looked at the giant egg, asking earnestly, “Blue Eggy, do you want to go with him?”
The white giant egg immediately began rocking from side to side, its refusal unmistakable.
Lan Xiaoke raised her head, looking even more self-righteous. “It says it doesn’t want to.”
The Beast-Taming Prodigy’s expression gradually darkened.
Of course, he had seen the reaction of the Starry Sky Beast Emperor Egg. But with an Immortal Emperor bloodline right before his eyes, it was obviously impossible for him to leave simply because of a single refusal.
“Miss, a young beast doesn’t understand how to choose. If you truly have its best interests at heart, you should hand it over to someone who genuinely understands beast taming.”
“I’m also doing it for its own good.”
Hugging the white giant egg, Lan Xiaoke said earnestly, “I’ll give it lots of delicious food, and I’ll take it out to pick up treasures.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Chuan suddenly felt that the future growth path of this Beast Emperor Egg might be somewhat dangerous.
The Myriad Beasts Immortal Sect’s Beast-Taming Prodigy did not waste any more words. Instead, he secretly issued an order to the Purple-Winged Demonic Dragon beside him, intending to force the Beast Emperor Egg over through the suppression of their bloodlines.
The Purple-Winged Demonic Dragon spread its wings, and its enormous dragon might instantly covered the surrounding area. It also let out a roar that shook the soul.
The white giant egg in Lan Xiaoke’s arms trembled slightly.
An even more ancient starry-sky pressure erupted from within the eggshell. The Purple-Winged Demonic Dragon did not even last for a single breath before all four of its limbs slammed heavily onto the ground in submission!
The Myriad Beasts Immortal Sect’s Beast-Taming Prodigy had signed a life-bound contract with the Purple-Winged Demonic Dragon. After the demonic dragon was suppressed by its bloodline, his soul suffered the backlash as well, and a thin trickle of blood immediately ran from the corner of his mouth.
The white giant egg flew out of Lan Xiaoke’s arms, circled the Beast-Taming Prodigy once, and then returned to her embrace.
Lan Xiaoke hugged the giant egg and said with an utterly serious expression, “It already told you it doesn’t like you. Why can’t you understand egg talk?”
Quite a few people outside could not help twitching at the corners of their mouths when they heard this.
That Beast-Taming Prodigy had cultivated the Dao of beast taming for several thousand years, only to be mocked by Lan Xiaoke for not understanding egg talk.
What made it even more painful was that he really did seem not to understand.
The expression of the Myriad Beasts Immortal Sect’s Beast-Taming Prodigy turned completely grim. Several fellow disciples behind him quickly spread out, surrounding Ye Chuan and Lan Xiaoke in the center.
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.

That’s six hundred thousand years a minute, and in one day… I can’t even calculate it. Either way, I’m already invincible!” You’re a peerless prodigy rarely seen in ten thousand years? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re an undying ancestor who has guarded a sacred land for countless ages? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re the strongest chosen one, blessed with heaven-defying destiny? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. From this day forth, I have only one thing to say: “I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. Now, how exactly are you supposed to deal with that?”
