Chapter 167: Astral Behemoth, Flame Astral Behemoth

Ling gasped in amazement at seeing the Arcana information of this giant egg.

Name: Unknown

Species: Unknown

Arcana: Super Physique (awakened), Flying Arcana (awakened), Fire Arcana (awakened), Split Arcana (awakened), Soul Peeping (awakened), The Devourer (awakened), Inner World (awakened).

“Oh, boy!”

Ling Jiu was in awe. “What kind of life form has been conceived in this giant egg? I can’t believe that it has so many Arcanas!”

Aside from Super Physique and Fire Arcana that Ling Jiu often saw, it was the other Arcanas that surprised Ling Jiu.

Flying Arcana?

An Arcana that enabled flying?

Split Arcana?

An Arcana that enabled a person to have a double?

Soul Peeping?

What Arcana was this?

The Devourer?

The ability to devour everything?

And the Inner World?

What type of Arcana was this?

“An egg possesses seven Arcanas, and many of them are very buggy. What kind of life form this giant egg conceives?”

With this in mind, Ling Jiu tried to take the egg away. But the giant egg seemed to have grown in the ground, to his astonishment. He could not move it even a bit.

Ling Jiu tried various methods, but the giant egg just would not budge. He had no choice but to take a ton of photos and then left.

He came all the way to the dimensional passage and traveled over to Pandora where he found the exploration spaceship.

“Could you help take a look at this, 9527?”

Ling Jiu took out his cell phone.

9527 looked puzzled. As it picked up Ling Jiu’s cell phone and looked at the photos, its face gradually turned serious. “Where did you get these photos, Ling Jiu?” it asked after a long while.

“I discovered this giant egg on Earth. These photos are fresh from the oven.”

Ling Jiu was truthful. “You recognize this giant egg? What the hell is this thing?”

“This is the egg of the Astral Behemoth,” 9527 said in a low voice. “To be precise, it is the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth, a type of Astral Behemoths. There is a Flame Astral Behemoth baby inside.”

“Astral Behemoth? Flame Astral Behemoth?”

Ling Jiu was none the wiser. Kind of creature was this? It sounded as if it was something big.

“The Astral Behemoth is a terrifying life form bred in space.” 9527 said. “You should know that there are countless habitable planets in space, and these habitable planets have nurtured countless lives, for example, humans on Earth, life on Pandora, the divine tree on Casmodor. We call these lives nurtured on planets collectively as planetary life forms.”

Ling Jiu nodded.

“However, do you know that there is another type of life form in the universe that is not nurtured on planets but born in the vast outer space?” 9527 said.

“Born in outer space?” Ling Jiu was stunned. “Can outer space also breed life?”

What was in outer space?

There was no air, water, life. It was dead silent.

Outer space was a life-forbidden zone. How could life be bred here?

“Nothing is absolute.” 9527 shook its head. “For planetary life form, outer space is a life-forbidden zone. But for the Astral Behemoths, outer space is a cradle of life. The harsh environment of the outer sky is the cradle of the Astral Behemoths, which were born in such an environment. Because of the harsh environment, the Astral Behemoths are extremely rare. But the Astral Behemoths are tough life forms with unparalleled combat strength and a lifetime limit that is far beyond the reach of planetary life!”

“How terrible is the Astral Behemoth?” Ling Jiu asked.

“The Astral behemoth is the collective name for all life born in space, so it is a big family divided into three, six, or nine classes,” 9527 slowly said. “Among them, the most terrifying bloodline of Astral Behemoths is born as a stellar life form, and it is comparable to life at the peak of the universe during its adulthood. Just like the Flame Astral Behemoth you found, they are born to feed on stars and can grow quickly by swallowing the energy of stars. Once a Flame Astral Behemoth reaches adulthood, it will become the most terrifying and powerful life form in the universe.”

Ling Jiu’s heart missed a beat. “In other words, we are nurturing a terrifying creature on Earth?”

“Yes.” 9527 nodded. “When it hatches, it will be the pinnacle stellar life form. It will go deep into the earth and swallow the hot core of the earth. I guess you know what is going to happen next, right?”

Ling Jiu swallowed hard. What would happen if the inner core of the earth was eaten?

Will the earth lose its magnetic field, and then its atmosphere, and eventually become a dead planet like Mars?

“It will be a disaster!” Ling Jiu clenched his fists. “I will never allow this to happen! 9527, do you have a way to kill or stop this giant egg from growing?”

“Unfortunately, I don’t!” 9527 shook its head slowly. “I’m just an exploration spaceship. I don’t carry a weapon system. I can’t kill this Flame Astral Behemoth.”

“Will a nuclear bomb kill it?” Ling Jiu asked again.

“Impossible,” 9527 said in a low voice. “The eggshell of the Flame Astral Behemoth is tough. Even the powerful life beyond the stars cannot break its eggshell. You people on Earth will have no way to kill it!”

“Are we going to let it continue to grow?” Ling Jiu asked.

“There is not without a solution, though,” 9527 said. “You can find the mother ship. It is a battleship built with all the resources of the Emissian Civilization. It carries the most complete technology and the most powerful weapons of the Emissian Civilization. You may kill the Flame Astral Behemoth as long as you can find the mothership.”

“How can I find the mothership?” Ling Jiu asked.

“That is simple: become a stellar life form.” 9527 smiled. “The mother ship will summon you as and when you become a stellar life form.”

“Becoming a stellar life form?” Ling Jiu forced a smile. “Do I still have time? That Flame Astral Behemoth would have hatched before I could become a stellar life form.”

“Fret not,” 9527 said. “The growth of the Flame Astral Behemoth takes hundreds of years. According to my findings, there are still at least 10 years to go before the egg of the Flame Astral Behemoth hatches.”

“In other words, I can find a way to deal with this giant egg as long as I become a Level 10 Arcanist within 10 years?” Ling Jiu suddenly saw light at the end of the tunnel.

“That is right.” 9527’s answer was affirmative.

“Are you sure it is 10 years?”

“At least,” 9527 said. “If you are still doubtful, take this. It can detect the gestation condition of the Flame Astral Behemoth.”

With that said, 9527 handed him something black that looked like a watch.

“The stake is too high. I better make sure.”
