Chapter 496
496 Hatching of the Ice Egg
Black Jade Star.
On a small mountain, Wang Che muttered, “It should have been almost sixteen months since I came to the Black Jade Star, right?”
From the battle between the Ancient Fiend and the Divine Light Whale to the Black Jade Star, half a year had passed.
It had been more than a year.
!!
If it was in the war zone, Wang Che should be in the second semester of his second year, almost in his third year.
Wang Che looked at the large number of blood-red flowers at the foot of the mountain and sighed.
“The growth of the Blood Velvet in this area is a little slow.”
Wang Che did not think too much about the war zone.
To the Eastern War Zone and even the Federation, let alone three years, even in 30 years, there should not be much change.
The introduction of the Beast Origin Skill would only slowly bring changes to the soul pets in the Eastern War Zone. It was basically impossible to change anything in a short period of time.
After all, even if they cultivated the Beast Origin Skill, only the next generation’s soul pets would be affected.
When a soul pet that cultivated the Beast Origin Skill grew, it would take at least a few years or even more than ten years.
Compared to the war zone, Wang Che paid extra attention to the development of the Black Jade Star.
“The Black Jade Star is still a little big for an individual.”
“The resource area I set up is only a small corner of the entire Black Jade Star. The Ancient Fiend can use the Power of Life Earth to plow the ground, but letting it farm and take care of these resources is even more uncomfortable than killing it.”
“However, this growth speed is indeed fast. The life force is rich. With the river resources formed by the Power of Origin Water, the fertile soil developed by the Power of Life Earth, and the origin energy of this planet, these spiritual plants seem to have been accelerated. They’re just short of being harvested.”
Wang Che took a deep breath of the energy between heaven and earth.
“Moreover, other than the soul plants I scattered at the beginning, this planet has also begun to produce various plants. With what I’ve discovered so far, just in the Eastern Polar Region, there are already more than a hundred new and strange soul plants.”
“Many soul plants have high medicinal properties.”
“I’ve also discovered a few natural treasures, but they’re all in a budding state. They should still be some years away from true maturity.”
“As for the various underground mineral veins, other than the Soul Crystal Mine, we also discovered other metal-type mineral veins.”
Of course, so many resources were completely enough for Wang Che.
Wang Che looked at the horizon and calculated the time before walking down the small mountain.
The time on the Black Jade Star was similar to the Federation.
This meant that there should be a star source in the galaxy where the Black Jade Star was.
However, there was no moon at night, only stars.
“Roar~”
Walking down the mountain, a small figure flew out of the sea of flowers. Its entire body was covered in red flowers.
Its tail was wrapped in a golden-red flower as it flew towards Wang Che.
In a while, it flew to Wang Che’s shoulder and raised its tail.
“Ssss!”
The Firefly Dream Spirit pointed at the tail.
“This is a mutated Blood Velvet, right?”
Wang Che’s eyes lit up slightly, “Not bad, it’s considered a treasure in the Federation. On your star diagram, the area that these precious Blood Velvets can grow in is only ten thousand acres.”
“This should be a mutated Blood Velvet.”
Wang Che’s hand was dyed red. A surging soul power formed a vortex and caught the golden-red flower.
“Record the data. I’ll use the spiritual field to nurture a few more stalks and develop a few seeds to see if I can plant them on a large scale in the future.”
“This thing is very beneficial to the fire soul beasts. I can let them try it when I preach in two days.”
Wang Che patted the Firefly Dream Spirit’s head.
This little guy could be said to have been extremely useful in the development of the Black Jade Star!
Its powerful mental strength and ability could bring about considerable luck wherever it went.
Not to mention anything else, just the star diagram constructed by mental strength in its mind was a priceless treasure.
On it, all the geography of the Black Jade Star was recorded in detail.
Moreover, as the Black Jade Star changed, it was still changing at any time.
Wang Che could find any resource at any time.
“The trouble is that there’s no spatial portal.”
Wang Che pondered and said, “It’s unrealistic to teleport to any point at any time. I can’t take care of the resources in different regions at any time.”
Flying was too slow.
The Firefly Dream Spirit could teleport, but its spatial ability was not strong. It could only teleport itself.
Therefore, it had been quite difficult to fly around the planet for the past half a year.
The Ancient Fiend and the Divine Light Whale could also teleport themselves, but they were huge creatures and could not teleport for long distances.
However, they were not slow.
“After the little caterpillar ends its seclusion, it should be of great use.”
“I haven’t discovered any metal ores or materials that contain spatial abilities in the vein of the Black Jade Star… It’s a pity.”
Wang Che shook his head.
He could not be too greedy.
Those materials were indeed very rare.
Currently, the surface of the Black Jade Star had almost been fully developed.
However, there were actually many mineral veins underground that had not been discovered. The Ancient Fiend was lazy and was unwilling to slowly search.
Wang Che could only rely on himself.
As for the sea… the sea was created by the Divine Light Whale according to the ground. Naturally, there were no resources left. Even if there were, they were currently growing.
It was unlike the resources produced by the Black Jade Star underground.
“At that time, it will be very difficult for the Federation to establish spatial portals for the Black Jade Star in the five regions and various places. The Federation doesn’t have many spatial resources… At most, it will be a maglev train.”
“However, if there are powerful spatial soul beasts, they can use spatial power to combine with the life force that erupted from this planet. After accumulating for more than ten years, they can produce a batch of spatial resources…”
“As for the little caterpillar, this little thing has been in seclusion for more than a year…”
Wang Che felt that the little caterpillar’s seclusion state was not bad according to the strength of its soul ring.
He had been cultivating these past few days. As he cultivated, he was also absorbing the pure soul power in the air of the Black Jade Star. The little caterpillar and the Magnetic Sword’s cultivation speed would also be faster.
Cultivating in a soul ring had a huge bonus.
“The Black Jade Star has this condition now… I’m just waiting for the little caterpillar to exit seclusion.”
“If we can stay here for a few decades, breaking through to a hundred thousand years should be as simple as breathing.”
“Even if the life force of the Black Jade Star gradually weakens in about 50 years, and the energy of the planet gradually weakens, we can still use this time to nurture the four of them and also a large number of soul beasts.”
“Unfortunately, there are only more than two years left. Someone from the war zone will come. At that time, it should be impossible to occupy the Black Jade Star alone.”
Wang Che rubbed the Firefly Dream Spirit as if he was massaging the little guy. He walked through the sea of flowers and arrived at a clear river.
It was actually dozens of meters wide.
This was the Eastern Extreme Region, a branch of the Clear Ancient River.
The Black Jade Star was divided into five regions. In each region, there was a river planned by the Divine Light Whale according to Wang Che. Like a five-level division, the five regions were separated and connected, as well as the north and south poles. Then, countless branches nourished countless fertile lands.
The Eastern Extreme Region was in the Clear Ancient River.
The river slowed down.
Suddenly, a vortex appeared in the center.
The vortexes increased and the river became faster and faster. Vaguely, a figure flew out!
The Water Demon Beast rode the water and stepped on the flowing water. On its back, it carried Bear Treasure and flew in the air.
“The blood essence of the Divine Light Whale, the two great sources of Life Earth and Origin Water. In just a few days, before it began to cultivate on its own, it had a cultivation of nearly 500 years. It was born to control water and mind.”
“Among the second-generation demonic beasts, the five of them are considered the top bosses.”
“However, although its intelligence has already developed, it’s not too high, about the same as Bear Treasure…”
“Unfortunately, this planet was too desolate previously. There were no signs of life. Otherwise, after the life force erupted, a group of Connate lifeforms should have been born. I searched a few times on the Black Jade Star. Connate lifeforms… probably haven’t even appeared in their cells…”
Wang Che looked at Bear Treasure on the water demon beast’s back. It hugged the water demon beast’s neck excitedly and jumped around in the river, playing happily.
The Firefly Dream Spirit immediately hissed at Bear Treasure.
Then, it flew up!
‘I want to play too!’
The Firefly Dream Spirit wagged its tail and floated over.
However, what greeted it was a large wave that drenched it.
“Ssss!!!”
The Firefly Dream Spirit was not angry. Instead, it flew over happily.
In fact, before the Black Jade Star lost its life, it seemed very lonely and monotonous.
It was very difficult to resonate with a lifeless planet.
However, with the second-generation soul beasts created by the Divine Light Whale and the Ancient Fiend, although there were still very few of them, at least this planet had the color of life.
In a year or two, they should be able to see groups of soul beasts.
The Divine Light Whale and the Ancient Fiend had been studying new species. The blueprint Wang Che gave them only gave them a start.
By the time they got tired of it and felt that it was about time, the third-generation soul beasts on this planet should begin to be born one after another.
Seeing the Firefly Dream Spirit fly to Bear Treasure and the Water Demon Beast and begin to use soul skills in the water, Wang Che pinched his chin and pondered for a while.
Soul beasts that had just descended into this world still needed to play.
To be able to gradually unlock their intelligence meant that they already knew about this world.
At this moment, Bear Treasure stepped on the water and placed its palms in the river. Then, its two bear paws used exquisite control techniques to knead the river into a water ball and swing it at the Water Demon Beast.
The powerful water ball splashed like a missile in the river.
Bang!
It landed on the Water Demon Beast.
The Water Demon Beast’s huge body was sent flying. It slid dozens of times in the water until it slowly rose from the water and looked at Bear Treasure with wide eyes.
It seemed to be surprised what move Bear Treasure was using.
The curious and excited eyes were filled with yearning for this world.
Bear Treasure waved at the Water Demon Beast, indicating for it to come over.
“Roar? Roar!”
“Grr!”
Bear Treasure narrowed its eyes and smiled.
The translation was: ‘You want to learn? I’ll teach you!’
“Yes, I do!’
On the side, the Firefly Dream Spirit’s entire body glowed. The river seemed to have suffered some powerful external force as it constantly surged and formed a Bear Treasure formed by water.
In the river, it learned Bear Treasure’s posture and began to move!
“Ssss!”
‘I have to learn this too!’
Seeing this, the Water Demon Beast let out a high-pitched cry!
Seeing this, Wang Che narrowed his eyes.
“It seems that Bear Treasure is a good teacher.”
Wang Che pondered.
This was a good help in opening a forum and urging these second-generation soul beasts to cultivate.
These second-generation soul beasts were all given intelligence by Bear Treasure with the Formless Sumeru Spirit. They had a natural affinity with Bear Treasure.
Three days later.
Wang Che asked Bear Treasure to bring the five second-generation soul beasts, including the Water Demon Beast and the Candle Flame Bird, to a mountain peak with immortal aura and began to explain the cultivation method to them for the first time.
The Heavenly Mountain was the mountain with the richest energy in the center of the Eastern Polar Region.
Water Demon Beast, Candle Flame Crow, Truth Suppression Lord, Mustard Mountain Dragon, and Star Origin Master. Other than them, there were also soul beasts of the same species under them.
They were all created by the Divine Light Whale and the Ancient Fiend. In total, there were about 30 of them.
Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth were the five basic elements.
As for these five, be it their appearance or aura, they were the best.
After all, Wang Che had personally designed the blueprint.
To a certain extent, they were more blessed than the little caterpillar, the Magnetic Sword, or Bear Treasure.
It was born with a powerful origin of power. Its body was pure and its soul was spotless. Its future was limitless.
Moreover, to a certain extent, it carried the will of this planet.
It was only a matter of time before it became a million-year soul beast.
The other dozens were figured out by the Divine Light Whale and the Ancient Fiend themselves. They were created according to the gourd and ultimately lacked some charm.
How high they could achieve depended on themselves.
Perhaps one day, this planet would mutate.
It was not a problem to cultivate for hundreds of thousands of years.
However, the resources on this planet might not be enough.
The martial soul world was huge. In the history of soul beasts for tens of thousands of years, there were less than three digits of a million-year soul beast.
Of course, cultivation guidance and intelligence were one thing.
However, the resources were the same.
Sometimes, there were only so many resources on a planet. It was impossible to nurture too many million-year soul beasts.
It was not easy to guide cultivation and preach.
However, when drawing the blueprint, Wang Che had already planned a certain cultivation path for them according to their attributes and abilities.
These natural Transcendent soul beasts actually only needed initial guidance.
Later on, they would comprehend heaven and earth and comprehend a path that belonged to them.
There was no need to plan step by step like the little caterpillar or Bear Treasure. There could not be many mistakes.
As natural Transcendent soul beasts, after they were given intelligence, their intelligence had already developed and was growing at an extremely fast speed.
At this speed, the little caterpillar would probably cry.
With Bear Treasure’s guidance, they were very interested in cultivation.
Wang Che did not need to lie.
He only needed to explain the details of this world and the basic laws of heaven and earth to them.
At the same time, he could teach them some prepared cultivation techniques and guide their cultivation.
This kind of teaching was much easier.
Soul beasts with innate intelligence were much smarter than the little caterpillar…
A peerless genius among soul beasts was probably referring to this.
Second-generation soul beasts were the strongest soul beasts on the Black Jade Star in all aspects.
It was much, much higher than any soul pet. There was nothing to compare.
Wang Che used his Essence Soul martial soul to stand on the ten-thousand-foot-tall immortal mountain. His voice was faint and his mouth was filled with lotus flowers as he explained everything about cultivation to these dozens of soul beasts.
More than 30 soul beasts were quietly squatting or coiling in the air, immersed.
On the contrary, Bear Treasure was a little confused.
It… could not understand.
This was because the cultivation techniques Wang Che taught were mostly demon cultivation techniques, not martial cultivation techniques. The cultivation method was also different from the path he took.
Bear Treasure scratched its head and listened quietly.
Then, it would occasionally look at the dozens of soul beasts around it and nod solemnly, indicating that it understood.
The lecture lasted for a day.
Wang Che passed down a total of five cultivation techniques for these five types of soul beasts to cultivate.
“In the future, I’ll explain it every six months. If there’s anything I don’t understand in cultivation, I’ll explain it here.”
Six months was actually a long time but it was also a small cycle.
It was enough to see if these soul beasts could cultivate these modified demon cultivation techniques.
It was also an experiment.
He could also tell if the spells in the cultivation technique could be learned.
Moreover, it was not good to say too much. It was easy to restrict them.
These soul beasts were all very intelligent. What they could cultivate was more important.
The cultivation technique only needed simple guidance.
At the same time, Wang Che did not sign a life contract with them.
Wang Che wanted to see if these native soul beasts that did not sign the life contract would be any different in the future.
At the very least, would there be any difference under his guidance?
After explaining the cultivation, Wang Che took out some soul plants or ores. He first showed them and tried them until they were familiar with them. Then, he assigned them their respective missions: take care of the many resources and soul plants in the five regions.
This could not only accelerate their cultivation but also share some of the pressure.
Otherwise, with such a huge place like the Black Jade Star, it would be a little tiring to rely on Wang Che to watch over it alone.
After speaking, the soul beasts thanked him and left excitedly. They were like students who had just obtained their textbooks and returned to cultivate.
At this moment…
The Firefly Dream Spirit suddenly flew over from afar, still hugging the ice egg.
Walking the egg was something the Firefly Dream Spirit did every day.
It was to take out the ice egg and bring it around.
“Wu! Wu! Wu! Wu!”
The Firefly Dream Spirit’s anxious voice sounded.
“Hmm?”
Wang Che was slightly stunned, “You said this little guy is coming out? Why now?”
The time was a little strange. It should have hatched more than half a year ago.
The result was no.
After staying on the Black Jade Star for so long, there had been no movement.
Why was it suddenly hatching now?
