Lin Xuan held the jade tube in his hand, appreciating it carefully for a while before putting it into his Storage Bag. Then, with a flip of his hand, a white, round object appeared in his palm.
It was about half a meter in diameter, like the egg of some creature.
A spirit beast egg!
This, too, had been obtained from the Heavenly Sha Devil Lord's cave abode, and a trace of excitement appeared in Lin Xuan's eyes.
One had to know that in the cultivation world, spirit beast eggs were precious in the extreme. Even first-rank and second-rank ones had a price but no market, and usually only sects had the means to purchase a few.
As for anyone else who possessed a spirit beast, every last one of them was a high-level cultivator.
After all, having such a thing was equivalent to gaining an extra helper out of thin air in battle. It was even more useful than spirit weapons or magic treasures.
It was also one of the few things in the market squares that could not be bought even with crystal stones.
And with the Heavenly Sha Devil Lord's abilities, this spirit beast egg presumably would not disappoint him. At the very least, it would be a second-rank top-grade beast; it might even hatch into a third-rank demon beast.
Of course, nothing could be seen just from the egg itself, unless he found a specialized spirit beast master to appraise it.
But Lin Xuan had no such intention. With his scheming mind, how could he not understand that wealth should not be flaunted?
Besides, appraising spirit beast eggs was usually done in order to sell them.
Lin Xuan was not short of money. Perhaps Heaven wanted to temper him, but danger often appeared around Lin Xuan.
