Chapter 147 Baby and Snowball
For the next five days, Shen Yichuan had been practicing the "emotional empathy" method to fall asleep.
Although his mood was indeed affected a little, it must be said that the results were very significant. Because, in just five days, the energy in the sphere he swallowed was equivalent to the energy in the previous three months!
On this day, Shen Yichuan had just "woke up" and felt his current cultivation level and the speed at which he absorbed the rule energy in the sphere, and he was slightly satisfied.
His cultivation had indeed risen a bit. Although he still hadn't reached the middle stage of the Martial Saint, he was very close. Shen Yichuan felt that if he could break through to the middle stage, it would only take a turning point, and this turning point was not far away. In fact, it might even happen in the next two days.
Just when I was feeling satisfied, the twins' voices rang out outside.
"Brother, father may still be asleep, can we just go in like this?"
"Let's be gentle so as not to wake up father."
Then, there was the sound of the door being quietly opened. Shen Yichuan raised his eyebrows and looked towards the two children.
"What are you doing sneaking around like that?"
The twins were startled at once, but when they saw Shen Yichuan woke up, they immediately became happy and ran towards Shen Yichuan.
"Father!"
Shen Yichuan looked at them and said, "Well, what were you doing just now?"
"We're not being sneaky." The twins pouted.
"Yeah, we just didn't know if Dad had woken up, so we wanted to take a peek."
Shen Yichuan rubbed their foreheads and said, "Thank you so much for your concern."
"Mom and Dad have been practicing these days, and so has Dad. Dad, aren't my brother and I working hard enough?" Qi Mengxi couldn't help but ask. She felt that everyone around her seemed to be busy, and only her brother and I were quite idle. Even if they practiced, it was less than half a day a day... In comparison, it seemed that they were not working hard enough.
Obviously, they also want to work hard!
"How can you not work hard?" Shen Yichuan rubbed the two children's foreheads again, "I see you are working very hard, aren't you? Your cultivation is steadily improving, which is already a lot of effort."
"Yeah?"
"Yes." Shen Yichuan said affirmatively, and then asked: "Are your mother and father also practicing these days?"
"Yes, when my father was asleep, my mother and father were practicing, and they were in a forbidden area. My brother and I were not allowed to go there." Qi Mengxi said.
Shen Yichuan was lost in thought. A forbidden place? Qi Xiuyuan actually went there to practice?
At this moment, the communication stone on Shen Yichuan's body emitted a light. It meant that someone was looking for him. Shen Yichuan took out the stone and saw Lin Jiaojiao's message on it.
"Master Shen, the egg is cracked. The little thing inside should be about to break out of the shell!"
Lin Jiaojiao's voice sounded a little excited, and Shen Yichuan was shocked. Such a big egg was about to break the shell? It had only been a few days! Qi Xiuyuan had said before that the egg might take a long time to come out. I didn't expect that just because he slept a little more in the past few days, the egg was about to break the shell!
"Dad, is it that very big egg?" The twins obviously knew about the egg and asked quickly.
Shen Yichuan nodded, "Yes, it's that egg."
"Dad, the egg is about to hatch. Can we go and take a look? It's so big. I wonder what kind of animal it is. Could it be a spiritual animal or a divine animal?" The twins were obviously very excited, their eyes sparkling.
Shen Yichuan then smiled and said, "If you are so interested, we will go and take a look and find out."
"Okay, okay, father, let's go quickly!"
"Father, if it's a divine beast, can we make it recognize its master? Divine beasts must be much more majestic than reptiles and chickens, right?"
Reptile, chicken: "..."
They are divine beasts! Why are they more majestic than them?
"It's not easy for a divine beast to recognize its master. Let's go there and see for ourselves." Shen Yichuan patted Qi Mengxi's forehead and said, "Let's go."
With the twins, Shen Yichuan quickly arrived at the space crack.
At this time, Lin Jiaojiao and others were gathered in a large tent. Now, the giant egg was in the center of the tent. There were more and more cracks on the egg, and it looked like it was about to break.
Shen Yichuan walked in with the twins, and Lin Jiaojiao and others saluted.
Shen Yichuan waved his hand, "Why did you suddenly break out of your shell?"
Lin Jiaojiao said, "Maybe it's time for it to hatch. We've been applying some energy liquid to its shell these past few days, and that energy has been absorbed. And just now, the egg suddenly cracked. Nothing else happened, so it must have hatched on its own."
"Dad, what kind of egg do you think this is? When the thing inside crawls out, it must be very big, right?" The twins' eyes were all on the giant egg.
"It should be, after all, it's such a big egg." Shen Yichuan said.
As if to echo his words, after he finished speaking, the cracks on the giant egg in the center of the tent became bigger and bigger, and finally, with a snap, the whole egg shattered.
Then……
"Wow..." A baby's loud cry sounded inside the tent.
Everyone: “…”
"...Human?" Lin Jiaojiao and the others were dumbfounded. Wasn't this a beast? How did it turn into a baby?
The twins were also a little stunned, "Dad, how did this become a baby?"
Shen Yichuan said that he also wanted to know this question.
"Wow..." This baby seemed to be able to do nothing except crying. He waved his limbs, which was no different from a newborn human baby.
From hair to heels, he looks just like a newborn baby!
Zhu Huaqiang took a step forward and exclaimed in amazement: "It really is a person. Hey, there is something here."
When he shouted like that, everyone around him naturally stared over.
Then, everyone saw a... snow-white, furry creature crawling out from the broken shell.
"This thing looks like Xiaoxue." The twins couldn't help but say.
Of course they had seen Xiaoxue. Xiaoxue had been trained by Lvyin and had been much more obedient recently. The twins had played with Xiaoxue before, but Xiaoxue was not very close to them, so the twins did not go over there.
However, the white furry creature in front of me really looks like Xiaoxue. The fur is very similar, and even the appearance looks very similar... They are like twins!
"This..." Lin Jiaojiao and the others carefully looked at this furry creature that looked very similar to Xiaoxue, but couldn't tell what species it was.
Then, everyone saw this little thing start to swallow the mucus inside the egg, and... the eggshell.
This little creature was about the same size as Xiaoxue, both about the size of a baby's palm, but it ate like a glutton! As everyone watched in shock, this tiny creature swallowed a huge egg, the entire eggshell, and the slime inside!
Moreover, the other person's belly didn't even look bulging.
"This is truly a gluttonous stomach." Dongfang Yang murmured, "This little thing is quite interesting. I wonder how strong it is in combat."
"Does anyone recognize what species this is?" Shen Yichuan asked.
Everyone shook their heads, saying they couldn't recognize what species it was. What kind of creature was this?
The baby continued to cry. I don’t know if it was because no one paid attention to him, so the baby cried even louder. The loud cry could make people feel the grievance.
"Go and pick it up and take a look." Shen Yichuan finally said.
Lin Jiaojiao and the others looked at each other in confusion. Lin Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Dongfang Yang, you're closest to the child, hurry up and bring him over."
Dongfang Yang blinked. He was a bit interested in the little snowball, but this baby... and a crying baby at that! He really wasn't interested! He didn't say anything, leaning over to pick up the baby. But before his hand even touched the baby, it seemed to want him away, crying even louder. And this time, he even used a soul attack!
"Ugh!" Dongfang Yang groaned, spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face immediately turned pale.
This sudden change shocked everyone present.
"Dongfang Yang!"
"This child, it's a soul attack, it's a soul attack." Dongfang Yang quickly moved away from the baby, tapped himself a few times, then took out a medicine bottle, poured out a few pills from it, swallowed them all, and immediately sat in meditation on the spot.
"Soul attack?" Lin Jiaojiao and others were shocked.
"Only Dongfang Yang was attacked. It was directed at Dongfang Yang. Does this child not want to be held by Dongfang Yang?"
"How could such a tiny, newly hatched baby actually hurt Dongfang Yang?" Zhu Huaqiang became interested. "I'll give it a try."
"Be careful and pay attention to defense." Nangong Bingyan reminded.
Zhu Huaqiang nodded directly, then prepared for defense, circulated his fighting spirit throughout his body, and even exaggeratedly put on a layer of robes.
Then……
"Hmm!" Zhu Huaqiang also groaned and followed Dongfang Yang's footsteps.
Everyone was stunned.
Zhu Huaqiang quickly swallowed the medicine: "Fuck! This little brat's soul attack power is so strong, and it can penetrate defense!"
After two consecutive attacks, the baby's crying became weaker, as if it was over-exerted.
Shen Yichuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Try again."
This little thing has such attack power just after breaking out of the shell. It’s incredible! Shen Yichuan immediately had an idea.
This time it was Zhu Jinxiu who stepped forward, holding a bell in her hand. The bell looked ordinary, but it was a spiritual treasure, and a spiritual treasure specifically used to resist soul attacks!
Zhu Jinxiu approached the child carefully, and sure enough, the baby launched another soul attack. However, this time Zhu Jinxiu's bell played a defensive role, but the bell also vibrated several times in succession. By the time Zhu Jinxiu retreated, the faint light on the bell had become much weaker.
The baby's cries grew weaker.
Shen Yichuan raised his hand and said, "Continue."
Zhu Jinxiu nodded, still using the bell to protect her body, and then approached the baby again. At this moment, the little snowball that had been silent before suddenly bounced out, targeting Zhu Jinxiu!
"Tear."
Zhu Jinxiu's robes and the clothes inside were all torn by the sharp claws. Then, the claws also cut her skin and blood flowed out.
Snowball's movements were incredibly fast, and even Zhu Jinxiu, with his high cultivation level, couldn't react in time!
After the attack was successful, the little snowball landed lightly next to the baby, with a very obvious protective posture. At the same time, its small round eyes were also looking at the other people in the tent vigilantly.
"What a fast speed!" Nangong Bingyan was surprised. "What kind of species is this? It can move so fast right after hatching!"
At this time, Dongfang Yang opened his eyes at the beginning. He had almost recovered. The soul attack was indeed powerful, but the baby was just born. In addition, with his cultivation level, his soul was strong. He was injured by surprise, but it did not mean that the baby could really hurt him.
"This baby must not be human. It's probably some kind of beast that transformed at birth because its bloodline is too powerful. The one next to it is either a companion beast or the same species. But since they have such attack power right after hatching, they must be top-notch if the contract is successful." Dongfang Yang said.
Everyone then looked at Shen Yichuan.
"Master Shen, let's catch these two little guys and let Master Shen make a contract with them."
Shen Yichuan raised his eyebrows slightly. Let him make a contract? His eyes fell on the twins, "Do you want to make a contract? One for each of you is perfect."
The twins looked at each other and shook their heads.
Shen Yichuan was puzzled and shook his head?
"Weren't you guys funny before? Besides, these two look stronger than Reptile and Chicken."
Reptiles and chickens: "..."
Are they despised again?
However, what a powerful blood pressure.
But, they don't know what species the other party is, so strange...
"Because they are so strong, let's sign a contract with Father." Qi Kongyang raised his little face and said seriously, "Father, we want them to protect you."
Qi Mengxi nodded vigorously beside him, "That's right! That's right! Father, please sign the contract so that they can protect you."
Shen Yichuan was silent, feeling a little complicated.
These two children... are indeed very adorable.
Such a good child, clingy, considerate, and so cute, he really doesn't understand how the original owner could have done that to him.
Then, Shen Yichuan still refused.
"Father already has Luyin, Xiaohei, and Xiaoxue. These two are left to you. Be obedient."
The twins opened their mouths, wanting to say something, but Shen Yichuan pulled them back a little, then ordered Lin Jiaojiao and the others: "Do it."
"Yes!" Lin Jiaojiao and others responded in unison, then rushed towards the baby and Snowball.
This time, Lin Jiaojiao and the others were serious about it, instead of just testing the attack power of the two little creatures like before.
When they actually started fighting, the baby was so exhausted that he vomited blood and was no longer able to launch a soul attack. Snowball also collapsed to the ground like a dead dog...
