2554 Demon Insect and Alien Insect!
In a soft and bright voice, Lin Yuan said, “How many more of those crystals filled with spirit qi do you need before you can hatch?”
Keira pondered it momentarily before she replied, “I will need at least 8,000 more.”
At that point, she hurriedly added, “Frankly, I don’t need that high of a concentration of spirit qi in order to hatch. I will be able to hatch with spirit qi, which is a little less concentrated! I will only need spirit qi of such high concentration when I’m evolving my Genetic Lock.”
Keira was very afraid that the quote of almost 8,000 spirit qi crystals would scare Lin Yuan off. Where would she go to find spirit qi if he was scared off?
Lin Yuan nodded gently. Now, he had a general idea of Keira’s needs.
In the past, almost 8,000 spirit qi crystals would be a struggle for Lin Yuan.
But ever since Lin Yuan took control of the Startling Lines Continent and began nurturing experts with his own resources and harvesting spirit qi crystals from their feys, he no longer had to worry about obtaining spirit qi crystals!
He could now obtain 8,000 spirit qi crystals with ease.
Presently, excluding the spirit qi crystals he had set aside for the Moon Empress, Lin Yuan had more than 50,000.
Lin Yuan immediately took out 8,000 spirit qi crystals and said, “I just happen to have enough. You can absorb them now and begin hatching!”
Keira was so stunned that she lost the ability to speak.
What! You have almost 10,000 spirit qi crystals of such pure spirit qi! You’re even willing to give them to a new servant like me! Just how wealthy do you have to be to be able to do such a thing?
Keira had only ever been a source of support for others. This was the first time that she had to cling to someone else. As such, this was the first time she was coming to understand just how much happiness could come from doing so!
Keira clearly remembered telling Lin Yuan she did not need to absorb spirit qi of such high purity. But it was as though he had not heard her.
The day she had been waiting for for the past millions of years was finally here!
Keira said cordially, “Thank you for doing this for me. Suddenly, I feel as though becoming your servant is a major opportunity and a result of positive karma! I will cherish these resources and positive karma!
“But before I absorb these spirit qi crystals, I must remind you again that the spirit qi in these crystals is too precious. I don’t need spirit qi of such high purity in order to hatch.”
Lin Yuan began crushing the spirit qi crystals. “You don’t have to worry about all that. Just concentrate on absorbing and hatching!”
Lin Yuan did not know just how domineering and arrogant his words sounded to Keira. She believed this was exactly how an autocrat behaved!
Lin Yuan would like to obtain regular spirit qi for Keira as well. After all, pure spirit qi was not of much use to her. However, it was much easier for him to obtain pure spirit qi than it was to obtain spirit qi of average purity.
The most precious thing to Lin Yuan now was time. He did not want to waste time trying to obtain spirit qi of average purity.
He did not grab too many spirit qi crystals at once as he was concerned that he would crush them faster than Keira could absorb them. This would only waste the spirit qi crystals.
But Lin Yuan soon realized that Keira was no different from a bottomless pit. Regardless of how much spirit qi there was, Keira would be able to absorb all of it rapidly.
Thus, Lin Yuan increased the speed at which he was crushing the spirit qi crystals.
Keira was extremely aware of how much spirit she needed to hatch.
Lin Yuan had already crushed 7,500 spirit qi crystals. But once he took out another 300, cracks started to appear on the surface of the shell.
Lin Yuan was very curious about how Keira would look once she hatched. After all, she was an entity that had created thousands of alien insects.
Eternal Source was also watching Keira curiously. He did not understand what Lin Yuan and Keira were saying to each other, but this did not prevent Eternal Source from sensing that Keira had an extremely high life rank.
Eternal Source put this together with what Carly and Mexa said to Lin Yuan previously, and he could be certain this egg was the true dictator of the alien insect world.
Once the white egg absorbed its fill of spirit qi, it slowly turned gold and green. The shell cracked in Lin Yuan’s hands, and a 12-legged spider-shaped creature crawled out. It had a jade-colored scorpion tail that resembled a weapon. There were also flecks of purple below the insect shell, suggesting it would eventually turn purple.
Just as Lin Yuan was about to conclude that the demon insects could only remain in insect form, the creature on his palm shook itself and transformed into a girl wearing insect armor.
The girl had chiseled features and an unexplainable beauty. However, when Lin Yuan met her eyes, he saw they were filled with unique vicissitudes as if they had witnessed the birth and end of many civilizations.
Lin Yuan placed the Demon Insect Lock Decoder before Keira and said, “This should be a treasure of the demon insects. You will be in charge of it from now on. Going forward, what kind of resources do you need to increase your power, and what are your plans for development?”
Keira’s innocent face turned serious.
“I will continue controlling the alien insects through my Genetic Lock. My control over them has strengthened significantly, and their sacrifices will satisfy my need for vitality. I only need spirit qi when my Genetic Lock needs to break through. I will let you know when I require spirit qi, and I hope you will provide me with spirit qi of the same high purity.
“I learned from the two insect empresses’ souls that you want to develop the alien insects. The alien insects can be said to be the best weapons, and if you can trust me, I can manage their development. There is a large number of genes locked within the Demon Insect Lock Decoder, and I can use them to quicken the strengthening of the alien insects.
“As for the demon insects, my body hasn’t matured, so I still can’t derivate. Once my body has matured, I will begin nurturing the demon insects. I will also pick a partner from among the demon insects.”
Keira had plainly told all of her needs and thoughts to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan immediately said, “You must know the alien insects because you’re the one who created them. So you can continue overseeing them!”
