Chapter 636 -636: An Egg_1
Inside the cave, the yin evil energy that should have been thick as ink was instead extremely thin, barely visible without a close look.
However, the chilling breath was incredibly intense.
At the far end of the cave was a pool, containing a liquid that was a bright red like blood.
It was clear that originally this liquid should have filled the pool, but for some unknown reason, it had decreased to its current level.
On the walls of the pool, one could see the remnants of watermarks.
Looking around, Greg Jensen’s eyes involuntarily narrowed, and an inexplicable chill rose in his heart.
Because at the four corners of the cave were four piles of bone white skeletons, stacked like mountains.

Those skeletons were massive, resembling some sort of unknown wild beasts, some with tusks as long as those of elephants, others with sharp bony spikes protruding from their backs.
They looked extremely ferocious!
On the stone-paved ground, over a dozen winding trenches combined to form an intricate rune, one end connected to the pool, while the other end was linked to the four piles of skeletons.
Only now did Greg Jensen suddenly realize that the red liquid in the pool was actually blood.
The four piles of skeletons were sacrificial altars, which had slaughtered countless giant beasts.
The blood of those giant beasts flowed through the channels, pouring into the Blood Pool.
However, the origins of these gigantic beasts were unknown, and for many years past, the blood in the pool had not decayed or dried up in the slightest.
This indicated that these giant skeletons were definitely not ordinary wild beasts in life, but Spirit Beasts, or even Mythical Beasts with powerful abilities.
Greg Jensen stood at the entrance of the passage, looking at this eerie scene, feeling the coarse ancient aura, and a sense of reverence arose within him.
He felt that this place must have been used for the refining of some kind of artifact, where the unknown giant beasts served as nourishment, and the Blood Pool was a place for nurturing and refining the artifact.
The Spiritual Energy of those beasts would then flow into the Blood Pool along with the blood to refine the artifact within.
However, given the bloodiness of the place, the artifact being refined was probably not something benevolent.
“What a pity!”
A bitter smile appeared on Greg Jensen’s face, as he seemed to have no luck with ancient tombs, wrong in his guess twice now.
The last time, he thought Danu was a burial site, but it turned out to be just a herb garden and a straw hut.
Later, he felt this place was a tomb, but after entering, he discovered it was a highly peculiar sacrificial site.
Taking a deep breath to regain his composure, he looked around and noticed a table beside the Blood Pool.
On the table appeared to be a jade scroll?
Greg Jensen’s eyes lit up, about to walk over, but he paused because he suddenly remembered something.
If there were no living creatures here, then who had been competing with him for the yin evil energy?
At that thought, a chill went through him, and he became vigilant, scrutinizing his surroundings, letting his Divine Sense spread out like a tide.
The next second, his gaze sharply focused on the Blood Pool.
Because under his Divine Sense, there was an egg beneath the Blood Pool!
Greg Jenson’s internal alarm bells rang, he summoned his full Mana to the edge of the pool, and with a gesture, a mysterious suction force arose, causing the blood to churn.
Immediately afterward, an egg the size of a washbasin floated up, hanging above the Blood Pool, spinning slowly.
The egg was blueish-white, with blood-red veins covering its surface, resembling earthworms, each vein protruding.
Within those veins, one could faintly see a stream of blood light flowing by.
As the blood light moved, the blood below began to diminish, though very slowly—without close observation, one wouldn’t notice it at all.
“So this egg is the object of refinement.”
Greg Jensen instantly realized that this egg was absorbing the blood from the pool, and it was probably the egg that had been competing with him for the yin evil energy.
But then, he once again felt there was a problem.
If my guess is right, then hasn’t this egg been sacrificed for over a thousand years?
Greg Jensen’s heart chilled at the thought, feeling that this could indeed be possible. Moreover, as he looked at the blood in the pool, another question inexplicably came to mind.
For “Divine Dragon Nine Transformations” to ascend to higher levels, it precisely required some special beast blood.
And this pool before his eyes was simply a big gift delivered to him.
Greg Jensen’s eyes lit up instantly, and he immediately took out several empty bottles, crouched at the edge of the pool, and began to fill them with blood.
Soon, one bottle was filled.
Yet Greg Jensen was not satisfied and started to fill a second one.
Roar!
Just then, an angry roar suddenly echoed in Greg Jensen’s mind.
Simultaneously, the strange egg above the Blood Pool began to tremble violently.
Greg Jensen glanced upward, paid no heed, and continued to fill the bottles.
Feeling the blood in the pool still diminishing, the egg seemed to become enraged. It stopped absorbing the blood and charged straight at Greg Jensen.
Bang!
The impact was strong, causing Greg Jensen to stagger.
“Huh, quite some strength there,” he said.
Greg Jensen casually swatted it aside and began to fill the third bottle.
Roar!
The egg immediately grew furious and launched a fierce assault on Greg Jensen.
Greg Jensen could feel the ancient aura coming from the egg, yet also noticed it was too weak to pose any real threat to him.
Thus, he didn’t mind it. Instead, he continued to evade while filling more blood into the bottles.
After filling five large bottles, he finally stopped, satisfied.
He stood up, slapped the egg back into the Blood Pool, and then walked over to the table.
The table, carved from stone, had a rack on it, and on this rack was a jade slip.
Greg Jensen released his Divine Sense to check and, finding no prohibitions or dangers, reached for the jade slip.
As his Divine Sense probed, the information within the jade slip instantly flooded into his mind.
Following that, the jade slip turned to dust and scattered in the wind.
After pondering the information carefully, Greg Jensen’s face revealed a look of pleasant surprise.
The jade slip contained a spell for controlling Alien Beasts, titled “Blood Divine Pact.” This spell connected the life of an Alien Beast with its master’s.
If the master died, the Alien Beast wouldn’t survive either.
Beyond that, the jade slip also contained a method for nurturing Alien Beasts and various knowledges about them.
Greg Jensen had long realized the extraordinary origin of the egg and, looking at the arrangement of this place, he recognized it was meant for the cultivation of this Alien Beast egg.
He had been worrying about what to do with it, but unexpectedly, the master of this cave had left behind even the method of subjugation.
“Good people live in peace!” he exclaimed.
Greg Jensen laughed heartily. Turning around, he saw the egg had already leapt out of the water again. Now it was hovering above the Blood Pool, continuing to absorb blood.
It seemed to be stimulated by Greg Jensen’s actions; it was absorbing the blood at a rate clearly more than twice as fast as before.
Greg Jensen, with a chuckle, approached.
The egg seemed to sense something, suddenly froze, and after a moment, began to vibrate at an extreme speed.
