297: Chapter 297 The Terrifying Origin of the Fairy Egg

"An Immortal Gold Holy Spirit?" Long Hao's voice cracked.

"You mean the kind of immortal gold used to forge Imperial Weapons? That stuff can actually birth intelligence and form a Sacred Spirit? And it's seven types of immortal gold merged together? Can such a thing truly exist? Am I still dreaming?"

His face was a mask of shocked bewilderment as he rubbed his eyes vigorously, looking completely incredulous.

The rest of the group was equally stunned.

immortal gold, Sacred Spirit, Seven Types—they recognized and understood each word individually.

But combined, it was a different story. Since when could these terms be combined to form a living being?

Was this even right?

This was something never seen nor heard of throughout the ages.

Jiang Hao had long anticipated their shock; a Seven-Colored Immortal Gold Saint Spirit was simply too rare.

Anyone seeing it for the first time would be shocked and find it inconceivable.

Even people like Jiang Hao himself, Ling Bao, and Yuan Shi, who had truly seen the world, were surprised, let alone the others.

Jiang Hao explained with a smile.

"I also discovered it by a stroke of luck. For this thing to birth intelligence is indeed a rarity unheard of in eternity.

It requires the right time, the right place, and the right people—not a single factor can be missing. It is currently undergoing a transformation and will be born in a few more years."

Everyone sucked in a cold breath.

immortal gold becoming a spirit—what kind of coincidence was that? How great a providence was required?

While everyone was marveling, that mass of seven-colored light suddenly moved.

The light cocoon swayed gently a few times; the figure inside seemed to have sensed something.

Next, the seven-colored light cocoon began to move, and a beam of light reached out like a small tentacle, waving in the air.

Then, the seven-colored light cocoon flew into the air and 'looked' toward the group.

Yes, it 'looked'.

Even though it hadn't opened any eyes, everyone could feel it sizing them up.

"It... it moved!" Feng Xi's eyes widened.

The seven-colored light cocoon spun in the air and suddenly drifted toward Feng Wu.

It circled Feng Wu once, then twice, as if it were sniffing her scent.

Then, the light surrounding the cocoon suddenly softened, and it gently nuzzled against Feng Wu's cheek.

Feng Wu was stunned for a moment, then she smiled.

That smile was incredibly gentle, gentler than sunlight; when a beauty smiles, the world loses its luster.

"Hello there," Feng Wu said softly, reaching out to gently touch the seven-colored light cocoon.

The seven-colored light cocoon shook with excitement and spun around her even more joyfully.

Long Hao's eyes were fixed on the scene as he said speechlessly, "This... this little thing knows how to play favorites?"

The Battle Saint Venerable was also stunned, then burst into laughter. "Good heavens, does it know what Feng Wu's status is now?"

Feng Wu's face turned slightly red, and she glared at the Battle Saint Venerable.

But the smile in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

The seven-colored light continued to circle her like a spoiled child.

Watching this scene, Jiang Hao gave the little fellow a thumbs-up in his heart.

Not bad, this little thing certainly knows how to act.

It must have roughly understood the relationship between Feng Wu and himself, knowing that their connection was extraordinary, so it was proactively currying favor.

Feng Xi leaned in and said with a giggle, "Little guy, you haven't even been born yet, and you're already so pragmatic? You're so small but you already know how to flatter my aunt!"

The seven-colored light cocoon paused as if it understood.

It drifted in front of Feng Xi and nuzzled her cheek as well.

Feng Xi's eyes lit up, and she smiled like a blooming flower.

"That's more like it, little guy. Once you're born, big sister will look after you. I'll make sure you live the high life. If anything happens, just say my name. I'll make sure you can roam the Origin Realm with ease, and no one will dare bully you!"

Long Hao laughed from the side upon hearing this.

"Feng Xi, girl, you'd better work hard then. Do you know how terrifying this little fellow's Foundation is?

Add to that the fact that it's been nurtured by Old Jiang for so many years—to what exaggerated extent will its talent reach after it's born?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

A Seven-Colored Immortal Gold Saint Spirit was already a being favored by heaven and earth.

Coupled with the nourishment of Jiang Hao's Dao rhythm for so many years, it would definitely be an invincible existence among its generation upon birth.

Feng Xi thought about it and realized he was right. Given the abnormal nature of this Seven-Colored Immortal Gold Saint Spirit, its strength and Cultivation speed would surely be frightening.

"Then that's perfect!"

Feng Xi said righteously, "When he's born, I'll protect him while he's weak. When he gets strong, he can protect me. Then I'll have an invincible little brother. Let's see who dares to mess with me then!"

Everyone froze for a second, then burst into laughter.

Long Hao laughed so hard he slapped his thigh. "Good heavens, I could hear your calculations all the way from the Dragon Realm—oh wait, it's the Dragon Star now!"

The Battle Saint Venerable also laughed. "Feng Xi, girl, your mind really does spin fast."

Feng Wu looked at her niece with eyes full of doting laughter. Her niece had great talent and a lively, cheerful personality—it was truly wonderful.

The seven-colored light circled Feng Xi twice more as if saying 'deal,' and then circled Jiang Hao and Feng Wu twice more.

Expressing its happiness and reluctance to leave, it finally drifted back into the Immortal Pond.

Everyone calmed their emotions and continued looking ahead.

In the Immortal Pond, not far from the Seven-Colored Immortal Gold Saint Spirit, lay an egg quietly.

The egg was about the size of a washbasin, with a faint immortal light flowing across its entire body.

Ancient patterns occasionally flashed on the shell, each one emitting an aura that made one's heart tremble.

It was as if what slept inside was an existence capable of destroying heaven and earth.

"What is this now?" Desolate War's eyes widened.

Jiang Hao explained, "An immortal egg. It was brought back from the Path to Immortality by the Dao Venerable of the Mythological Era and remained on the Kunlun Ancient Star. Later, when I went to the Kunlun Ancient Star, I brought it back."

"No one is quite sure of its specific origin, but it was left by at least a True Immortal level existence, and..."

Jiang Hao paused and looked at the egg, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes. "There is a high probability it was left by an Immortal King existence."

Yes, an Immortal King.

Initially, Jiang Hao also thought this immortal egg was the descendant of a True Immortal.

But after fighting the An Ming grandfather-grandson pair and sensing the true aura of an Immortal King, Jiang Hao changed his mind.

Because this immortal egg also contained the aura of an Immortal King. Although it was very faint, it definitely existed.

Furthermore, as the immortal egg developed better and better, that aura became increasingly apparent.

Therefore, this egg was very likely the descendant of an Immortal King or formed by the Nirvana of an Immortal King existence.

Immortal... King?

Everyone fell silent once again.

A True Immortal was already an existence beyond their imagination, let alone an Immortal King. They only knew of such terrifying beings because Jiang Hao had just mentioned them.

And now, an egg possibly left by an Immortal King was lying right in front of them.

Another world-shaking thing.

Another world-shaking object no weaker than the Seven-Colored Immortal Gold Saint Spirit.

If this thing were to be born, it would be another existence that would stun all of eternity. They were witnessing yet another world-shaking presence.

While everyone was dazed, the egg suddenly moved.

It seemed to know that everyone was looking at it and discussing it.

It swayed gently, then slowly floated up from the bottom of the Immortal Pond into mid-air.

The light on the shell grew brighter, and those ancient patterns seemed to come alive, moving across the shell.

Then, a soft light radiated from the egg, gently sweeping over everyone.

It was as if it were saying hello.

Feng Xi was stunned and subconsciously waved her hand. "H-hello there, little immortal egg."

Everyone laughed and began greeting the immortal egg one after another.

The immortal egg seemed very happy. It spun in the air, and a flash of light passed over the egg as if its eyes had lit up.

Then, it drifted toward Feng Wu and Feng Xi.

It circled the two of them very excitedly, as if it had encountered something extremely joyful.

Subsequently, a brilliant seven-colored light suddenly erupted from the eggshell!
