Wholesale Black Dragon Eggs, Hatching

"Young Master, Ark's first soul beast egg has been laid. Please come quickly!"

The moment Lin Chen saw the message, he was overjoyed. He decisively set down the carving knife in his hand and headed for the secret chamber.

Three minutes later, he appeared in the small world.

Ark was the name he had given this small world. He had originally wanted to call it the Soul Beast Small World, but out of caution, he had settled on Ark.

If someone heard it in the future, they would never imagine that Ark was actually a small world of soul beasts.

Of course, that was unlikely to happen, but he still chose to be cautious.

He had chosen the name because he felt as though he was creating a world—a world of exotic beasts created by him. The codename Ark was quite fitting.

When Lin Chen arrived at the breeding room, he found Di Tian and the others all there, their expressions exceedingly complicated.

They had actually witnessed history—a pig had truly laid a soul beast egg with a rather formidable aura.

They were certain that once this soul beast egg hatched, it would undoubtedly be an authentic soul beast.

Its bloodline might be the weakest among soul beasts, but at the very least, it had gone from nothing to something.

Never before had a soul beast been able to breed with an ordinary animal and produce a soul beast. Yet it had truly been done now.

Looking at the egg resting in the incubation nest, Lin Chen asked the staff member beside him, "How long ago was this egg laid?"

"Master, it was born less than ten minutes ago."

"And the mother?"

"Her life energy was completely drained. She died after laying the egg."

Lin Chen fell silent before slowly saying, "Give her a proper burial. After all, her contribution was not small."

"Yes, Master."

After receiving Lin Chen's order, the subordinate hurried away.

Only then did Lin Chen carefully examine the egg. Its oval shell was entirely black and covered in all kinds of patterns, even radiating a faint chill.

Like Di Tian, he was becoming a father for the first time and felt somewhat at a loss. He could only turn to Di Tian. "How does the Dragon Clan handle dragon eggs after breeding?"

Di Tian merely snorted. "What kind of dragon egg is this?

At most, it is a soul beast egg. It is still far from being a dragon egg.

Though my bloodline is powerful, after mating with a pig, less than one percent of that powerful bloodline was passed down. At most, it will hatch into a mixed-blood dragon, not even a draconic sub-species.

Furthermore, Dragon Clan eggs generally take centuries to hatch. How could they be like this egg, which can hatch in a month?

I do not know how to handle it either. Just leave it as it is.

I can sense powerful life energy within it, enough for it to hatch."

After saying that, Di Tian sighed. "Transcendent Reproduction is truly terrifying.

Although he detested this egg and believed it had tainted the Dragon Clan's bloodline, he had to admit that being able to taint it was a capability in itself.

After all, he could not produce offspring even with the strongest dragons, yet he could produce one with a pig. That was a miracle in itself.

Mentioning powerful dragons reminded Lin Chen of something. "Beast God, I remember that your soul beast clan has a Hell Demon Dragon with more than three hundred thousand years of cultivation. When are you bringing her over to breed as well?

The two of you together would definitely produce powerful offspring."

"You mean Zi Ji?

She is indeed quite good, but I cannot do that."

"Why not?

By breeding with a soul beast with a powerful bloodline, you can quickly obtain offspring with higher-grade bloodlines. Our breeding enterprise can flourish as well."

However, Di Tian shook his head, his gaze exceptionally resolute. "Her bloodline is not particularly powerful either. She is merely at the Heavenly Dragon level. We can achieve that after a few rounds of breeding here. There is no need to seek her out."

"Could it be that, in your current form, you cannot conquer her? Is that why you are putting it so tactfully?"

Lin Chen remembered that dragons were all very proud. In Di Tian's current state, it was simply impossible for him to conquer Zi Ji.

Yet Di Tian firmly denied it. "If I explained it clearly to her, she would probably agree.

But our lord is currently alone in the human world carrying out her plan. I have already decided not to help her, so how could I drag Zi Ji down with me?

Our lord only has Bi Ji, Zi Ji, and Yao Ling assisting her. Bi Ji is merely a support and is not very strong. Yao Ling excels in mental powers and disguise, but her combat strength is not particularly formidable either. Only Zi Ji can protect our lord's safety.

I cannot disregard our lord's safety for my own selfish desires."

"I am certain that, judging from your breeding cycle, the offspring Zi Ji and I produce will need several years to gestate.

That would have been fine in the past, but every year is now extremely crucial to our lord.

And since I have already decided to independently create an entirely new soul beast race with you, I naturally will not mate with the old soul beasts again. Otherwise, they would still be soul beasts beneath our lord's bloodline."

"What do you mean, create one with me?

Di Tian, I have noticed that everything you say is so ambiguous."

Still, Lin Chen had indeed been persuaded.

Ever since Di Tian had formed a contract with him on the first day, the Dragon Clan bloodline in Di Tian's body had been altered by the mysterious yellow primordial energy of Transcendent Reproduction. He was already a completely new soul beast.

The descendants he produced would naturally form an entirely new race of soul beasts. It was good to sever them from the old ones.

However, Lin Chen knew that Di Tian did want to do it, but his loyalty to the Silver Dragon King outweighed that desire.

All he could say was that the Silver Dragon King's influence on him remained too strong. Even though Di Tian was prepared to start anew, the first thing he considered was still the Silver Dragon King's safety.

That gave Lin Chen a headache. After all, he was destined to become enemies with the Silver Dragon King in the future.

When a new king ascended the throne, how could the old king remain?

Still, he could only take things one step at a time.

The bond between Di Tian and him was not yet deep. Once descendants at the level of Dragon Kings, or even Dragon Gods, were truly born in the future, could Di Tian really maintain his loyalty to the Silver Dragon King?

Lin Chen did not think so.

After the first soul beast egg was laid, the following two eggs were soon laid as well. The intervals between the three eggs did not exceed three hours.

Within a single day, three black soul beast eggs had appeared in the breeding room—and they were dragon eggs.

However, only two of them were identical. The other was clearly fundamentally different from the first two. Its color was lighter and less profound, with a slightly grayish hue, while its patterns were shallower as well.

It seemed that even when Di Tian mated with the same kind of pig, there would still be slight differences.

Ever since the farm had begun continuously producing soul beast eggs, Lin Chen had barely left the small world. He preferred staying here.

As for everything outside, the butler handled it all. Whether he stayed at home or stayed here made no difference anyway. Others would only assume that he was at home.

More than anything, looking at these eggs every day was simply too enjoyable.

Three soul beast eggs a day—after barely more than ten days, the incubation platforms in the hatchery were covered in eggs. Each black soul beast egg contained a powerful aura.

Every day, he came to take a look. Di Tian, as their father, came as well, patrolling his territory like a lord.

Thus, a month slowly passed!

Finally, on a quiet night deep in the darkness, one egg slowly cracked open!
