Chapter 1245: Only Consume Dragon Lungs and Drink Phoenix Blood
Lin Yuan’s stomach started to grumble, and he soon became embarrassed by the constant noise.
The Moon Empress tried to find something to distract him as she knew that being in an extended state of hunger was a form of torture. It was ten times more difficult to bear than normal hunger.
She flipped her hand, and a golden egg appeared in her palm.
She asked Lin Yuan solemnly, “Little Yuan, have you finished reading the Catalog of Mountains and Seas that I gave you?”
Lin Yuan hurriedly nodded and replied, “I finished it long ago!”
He always had the habit of reading. As such, he had thoroughly read the entire book within three days.
However, he had found it rather confusing.
He did not know why the Moon Empress wanted him to read a book that was published before the Spirit Qi Awakening.
The Catalog of Mountains and Seas was similar to the Classic of Mountains and Seas that Lin Yuan had read in his previous life. However, the Catalog of Mountains and Seas was much more believable.
Nonetheless, such books of lore were still regarded as unrealistic no matter in what a believable way they were written.
Lin Yuan responded to the Moon Empress while staring at the gold egg in her hand.
There were swirling storm patterns engraved on the shell of the egg. It was as though the egg was the eye of a storm, and it looked like a concurrent mix of darkness and light.
Somehow, it was as though a ferocious beast was looking out from within the storm.
Additionally, the egg had a similar aura to Zong Ze’s Fiery Sky Hou. This meant that there had to be a fey with the Barren bloodline within the golden egg.
This was very likely the fey with a Barren bloodline that the Moon Empress had prepared for him.
The Moon Empress smiled and replied honestly, “There is a legend in the Catalog of Mountains and Seas which mentions a bird with golden wings that only eats dragon lungs and drinks phoenix blood. Do you remember this legend?”
Lin Yuan gulped and nodded before saying, “Of course, I remember it. Master, is the fey with the Barren bloodline in this egg the Golden Wings?”
When Lin Yuan had been reading the Catalog of Mountains and Seas, he soon reached the part about the Golden Wings, and it had left a deep impression on him.
He had not taken the Catalog of Mountains and Seas seriously and brushed it off as mere legends. Hence, he had not thought too seriously about its contents.
The first thought that came to Lin Yuan’s mind about the Golden Wings was that it was picky. It only ate dragon lungs and drank phoenix blood!
As long as a fey had a drop of dragon-species or phoenix-species bloodline in them, it would become much more expensive than other feys.
The feys that had awakened their dragon-species and phoenix-species bloodlines were sometimes worth more than money could buy despite not being true dragons or phoenixes.
Lin Yuan wondered if the Golden Wings’ pickiness had caused it to die of starvation.
However, the existence of the golden egg was proof that the Golden Wings was real.
It was likely that all the feys recorded in the Catalog of Mountains and Seas were feys in the Radiance Federation that had the Barren bloodline.
As such, Lin Yuan’s impression of the Golden Wings changed from picky to wonder as he imagined the power it would gain from such a diet.
The Moon Empress nodded and replied, “You’re right. The Golden Wings is in this egg. There is basic information about feys with the Barren bloodline written in Catalog of Mountains and Seas. Although you’ve consumed the Earth Center Fine Milk and both your body and soul have transformed, it will still be difficult for you to form a contract with the Golden Wings.
“I had a hard time when I contracted Zixi as well. Feys with the Barren bloodline are wild. It’s much harder to form a contract with feys with the Barren bloodline than it is to form a marrow contract with sacred source lifeforms.
“Your sacred source lifeform will be able to aid you when you’re contracting the Golden Wings. You must remember to obstinately suppress the Golden Wings’ willpower during the contraction process. Otherwise, the balance of power could be overturned.
“Once you form a contract with the fey with the Barren bloodline, it will accompany you for the rest of your life just like all your other feys.”
The Moon Empress handed the Golden Wings’ egg to Lin Yuan.
Soon, Mystic Moon led the spirit attendants and served another tableful of dishes.
After Lin Yuan started eating, he no longer felt as uncomfortable.
Soon, he realized that he no longer felt hungry once the uncontracted fey in his soul absorbed its fill of nutrients and energy.
Finally, his transformation was complete.
Given that he would need to put his willpower against the fey with the Barren bloodline during the contraction process, he could not be disturbed.
Thus, Lin Yuan went into his breeding room after the meal and shut the door.
He followed the Moon Empress’s directions and started to move his palms.
His blood and soul energy simultaneously enveloped the Golden Wings’ shell.
At the same moment that the Golden Wings’ egg absorbed Lin Yuan’s blood and soul energy, he felt himself being transported into the eye of a storm.
He could feel the fierce air currents around him and readied himself to unleash his willpower.
Suddenly, he sensed an enormous beast awakening in the wind. The beast was staring at him through the howling winds.
Lin Yuan’s expression remained steady.
He had just been in the breeding room in the Radiant Moon Palace. But he had appeared here after he used his blood and soul to engulf the egg.
It seemed that his soul had entered the golden egg, and he was currently witnessing the scene within the golden egg.
Lin Yuan remembered that the Moon Empress had said he would have to clash against the Golden Wings in a battle of willpower in order to contract it.
Since it was a battle of willpower, it did not matter who made the first move. They were bound to duke it out.
Hence, Lin Yuan just needed to steel himself.
However, his chest tightened when he remembered what the Moon Empress said about him, still having a hard time despite having consumed the Earth Center Fine Milk.
She had not given him any such warning in the past when he consumed the Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassia nectar to cleanse the impurities in his body or the Earth Center Fine Milk to transform himself.
