Chapter 199: East Forest Hunt and the First Spirit Beast Egg

Although Ma Hongjun did not want to go, he had no choice but to follow along.

"Since it is like this, I will lead the way. Based on your cultivation method, the spirit beast suitable for you should be in the east."

Bai He blinked his eyes and followed Ma Hongjun as they walked toward the east.

"Host, with Ma Hongjun and Ye Shiyuan’s help, your chances of finding a suitable spirit beast this time are still quite high."

But he seemed to have forgotten something very important.

"Shiyuan, I do not have that crystal orb of yours."

"This small matter, why not come to me?"

No one knew where it came from, but Ma Hongjun suddenly had a crystal orb in his hand.

He said proudly, "I am considered a veteran here. I will give you this crystal orb as a gift."

"Thank you."

"No need to be polite. We are friends now."

Bai He held the crystal orb and walked for about the time it takes to burn an incense stick.

The temperature here was indeed slightly lower than the previous place, but for Bai He, this temperature actually felt even more comfortable.

"Little boy, I have not been here many times either. Fewer people come here in general. After all, people who cultivate water-type techniques are usually women. There are very few men. The spirit beasts here are actually quite numerous, and most water-type spirit beasts are relatively gentle. Except for a few, most of them live together."

What Bai He wanted was a top-grade spirit beast, or even a divine beast level one.

As for a divine beast level, he did not even dare to think about it.

At the very least, he should get himself a top-grade spirit beast.

"Whoosh..."

It seemed like something flew past right in front of him, but Bai He did not even see it clearly.

Bai He could feel that the spiritual energy here was actually very thin.

Subconsciously, he released a trace of his profound ice power.

It was only a slight release, so it would not cause any damage here.

In fact, it would bring more benefits instead.

"Host, the spiritual power you are releasing is too pure and clean. These spirit beasts will be unable to resist moving toward your direction. I believe you will soon find your own spirit beast."

Mo Zhu said.

Bai He was also filled with anticipation.

Along the way, he had already seen quite a few spirit beasts.

However, they were all not high enough in level, so Bai He kept shaking his head.

It was not that he was looking down on them, but simply because he needed to complete the mission.

This might actually be the fastest time he had ever completed a mission.

Suddenly, a faint blue light attracted Bai He’s attention.

Bai He quickly walked forward, parted the weeds, and saw a spirit beast egg.

It had not hatched yet, but there were already cracks on the eggshell.

It looked like it was about to break out at any moment.

"What is this?" Ma Hongjun looked confused, clearly not understanding it very well.

"Master, this should be a spirit beast egg of the Water Mirror Image Beast."

A stream of information immediately appeared in Bai He’s mind regarding the Water Mirror Image Beast.

What Bai He cared about the most was not its abilities, but its rank.

It was born as a top-grade spirit beast, and as its spiritual power grows over time, it can evolve into a divine beast.

It is a growth-type spirit beast of the ice system.

In other words, it has unlimited potential for the future.

No matter what the future would bring, at the very least at this moment, this spirit beast egg still perfectly met Bai He’s current requirements.

Bai He gathered profound ice power in both hands.

This spirit beast egg was different from others and could withstand it.

As expected, under the reinforcement of Bai He’s profound ice power, it hatched faster and faster.

Until the eggshell completely cracked open, a very tiny little cutie jumped out from inside.

It was only about the size of a palm and its entire body a pale blue color.

It looked a bit like a small horse and its pair of eyes stared blankly at Bai He.

For some reason, Bai He liked it extremely.

Even without Mo Zhu’s mission, he would still have liked it.

"Shiyuan, I want this one."

"If Master likes it, then keep it. It is just that Master, this spirit beast has just been born. You will need to take good care of it."

Bai He nodded.

"Mm, alright. I will."

It was just taking care of a spirit beast.

What did spirit beasts like to eat again?

Spirit fruits, spirit pills... the Lingguang Sect had plenty of those.

But at this moment, it still could not be considered fully completed.

He still had to form a contract with this spirit beast.

However, for now, he would leave it at that and deal with it after returning.

...

After the three of them returned, most people had already come back as well.

Only a small number had not returned yet.

It was unclear whether they had been delayed or were unable to return at all.

In this place, no one would care.

Whoever could produce the highest level spirit beast would receive the reward from the Pagoda Master.

Ning Rongrong raised her eyebrows at Ye Shiyuan while saying very proudly. "Today, I have captured a top-grade spirit beast, the Scarlet Frostmoon Mink. I wonder if anyone has caught a spirit beast of a higher rank than mine."

Although the Scarlet Frostmoon Mink was only a top-grade spirit beast, among top-grade spirit beasts, it was considered one of the best.

However, Bai He felt that it was still not as good as her Water Mirror Image Beast, after all, the Water Mirror Image Beast could continue to grow and level up in the future, while the Scarlet Frostmoon Mink could not.
