Chapter 306: Spirit Beast! Nine Nether Sparrow!
Chapter 306: Spirit Beast! Nine Nether Sparrow!
After the silver light sphere entered Gu He's body, an immensely vast amount of information immediately surged into Gu He's mind, flashing countless profound cultivation secrets.
At the same time, wisps of sturdy silver energy also integrated into Gu He's flesh and blood.
Moments later, Gu He's eyes abruptly turned silver, with a faint sound of majestic thunder lingering around his body.
The anomaly in Gu He's body immediately caught the attention of Zi Yan and Han Yue.
"Such formidable thunderous power!" Han Yue exclaimed in awe.
Zi Yan, equally surprised, gasped in astonishment. She also sensed this thunderous power, but what truly surprised her was not this thunderous might but a power she was extremely familiar with, an innate power.
After absorbing the entire silver light sphere, Gu He already had a profound understanding of the Void Thunder Flash. Though he hadn't reached its peak, he could already deploy it flexibly.
Practicing the Void Thunder Flash endowed the body with a powerful ability to shuttle through the void. This ability, similar to the innate talent of the ancient void dragon, was much stronger. With Gu He's current cultivation, even a preliminary Dou Saint's spatial blockade couldn't hinder his movements.
Furthermore, practicing the Void Thunder Flash wasn't limited to this ability alone. It also allowed Gu He to directly transform into myriad thunderbolts and shuttle through the void within a short period. Each of these thunderbolts could be considered Gu He's true body. As long as one thunderbolt remained, Gu He could reform his body. After reforming, the other thunderbolts would instantly dissipate without harming him.
Taking a deep breath, Gu He slowly regained his senses from the shock of this terrifying martial skill.
"What are you two staring at? Did your master acquire something new?" Gu He asked with a warm smile, noticing Zi Yan and Han Yue staring at him.
"Yeah!" "Master, you suddenly gained something new!" Zi Yan and Han Yue nodded repeatedly after Gu He spoke.
"Does your master now seem more mysterious and profound?" Following their lead, Gu He intentionally said with a hint of jest.
"Ah!" Hearing Gu He's words, Zi Yan and Han Yue paused, then retorted, "We didn't see that at all!"
"It's such a waste to have you two. You can't even say something nice!" Gu He shook his head with some disappointment.
"Ah!" Seeing this, the quicker-witted Han Yue immediately said, "Master, disciple didn't mean that. It's just that 'profound and mysterious' doesn't seem fitting for you. 'Exquisite and transcendent' suits you better!"
"Haha, Han Yue, you have such a sweet tongue!" Gu He chuckled upon hearing Han Yue's words. In the next moment, a purple-colored beast egg appeared in his hand, which he handed to Han Yue.
This purple beast egg was obtained by Gu He from the Treasure Vault of the Beast-Taming Sect when he exterminated them in the Black Horn Domain.
Having held onto this beast egg for so long, Gu He was also very curious about what kind of beast egg it was to garner such attention from the Beast-Taming Sect.
"Teacher, what kind of beast egg is this?" Taking the purple beast egg handed over by Gu He, Han Yue asked curiously after examining it for a while.
Just as Han Yue was about to speak, a system prompt sounded in Gu He's mind.
"Ding, the host has gifted the Sixth Disciple Han Yue a Nine-rank Beast Egg of the Purple Demon Vulture. Congratulations to the host for receiving a ten-thousand-fold return, obtaining an egg of the Spirit Beast Nine Nether Sparrow!"
"The egg of the Spirit Beast Nine Nether Sparrow has been deposited into the system space. Please check, host!"
Spirit Beast!
Nine Nether Sparrow!
Upon hearing what the system returned, Gu He was greatly shaken.
Spirit Beast, this was one of the symbols in the vast world. Gu He remembered that after forming a contract with a Spirit Beast, one could share their lifespan with it. However, the longevity wasn't what Gu He cared most about. What he truly valued was the ability of Spirit Beasts to enhance one's own abilities.
At this moment, upon hearing Han Yue's puzzled voice, Gu He dismissed the thought of immediately checking the Nine Nether Sparrow egg in the system space.
Because he had already bestowed the purple beast egg to Han Yue, thanks to the system's function, Gu He could already see some information about that purple beast egg.
The Purple Demon Vulture, a Ninth-rank Beast, typically took a thousand years to hatch its eggs. Hence, there were very few of this species left.
Of course, if there was a vast amount of energy to absorb during this process, it could accelerate its hatching time. Once hatched, it would possess the strength of a peak Fifth-rank Beast. Furthermore, in many cases, it could reach the Ninth-rank in strength after growing up.
Gu He could sense that the beast egg gifted to Han Yue was not far from hatching.
"Han Yue, this purple beast egg is the egg of a Ninth-rank Beast, the Purple Demon Vulture. As long as you hatch it, it will have the strength of a Fifth-rank Beast. In the future, you will have one more companion to fight alongside you," Gu He explained.
"Wow, the egg of a Ninth-rank Beast!"
Upon hearing Gu He's words, Han Yue once again exclaimed with excitement, her mouth wide open and her face filled with joy.
After the excitement subsided a bit, Han Yue, with a happy expression, bowed to Gu He and said, "Thank you, Master, for giving such a precious gift to your disciple!"
"There's no need for such formality between us. Here are some accompanying purple crystal sources. Drip some onto the beast egg every day, and it should accelerate its hatching," Gu He said, waving his hand, then took out several bottles of accompanying purple crystal sources from his spatial ring and handed them to Han Yue.
"Mm!"
Having already received so many gifts, Han Yue didn't feel uncomfortable accepting them in front of Gu He. She promptly accepted all the bottles of accompanying purple crystal sources.
After rewarding Han Yue, Gu He's gaze shifted to Zi Yan, and a hint of a smile curved his lips as he teased, "Zi Yan, do you have anything you'd like to say to your master?"
Upon hearing Gu He's words, a pensive expression appeared on Zi Yan's delicate and fair face. Gu He's implication was already very clear; he wanted Zi Yan to praise him like Han Yue did.
Under Gu He's gaze, Zi Yan rubbed the back of her head. After a long while, she slowly uttered a childish voice.
"Master, I also feel that 'profound and mysterious' doesn't suit your temperament. 'Respected and pure, like ice and jade' is more fitting for you."
Hearing Zi Yan's words, Gu He's forehead was covered with black lines. "This little girl probably just remembers these few words, 'respected and pure, like ice and jade'... What kind of person does she think I am?"
