BXBX NOVEL Chapter 231 - 'Hatching'
Normally, spatial rings weren\'t supposed to hold living objects such as plants and so as time is frozen in it, but the \'hatchables\' were not normal living objects…
The Thunder Lion descendant was in a state of life freeze due to the race\'s special nature, and only a lightning source would actually resume it\'s normal life cycle.
On the other hand, the dragon egg wasn\'t a true egg to begin with, according to the Dragon Ancestor\'s explanation, once I did sever the corruption from the sky dragon\'s body, it took this chance to recover its body by separating into two personas, temporarily pausing their life cycle as well, which would only start once given the dual Lightning-Water source…
That easily made it convenient for me till this point, but that should change from this point on as they would become actual living companions, unlike the AI Long who can access the ring as if he\'s not alive…
Placing a mattress on the rocky ground, I sat in cross-legged position, holding the small \'Descendant\' in my left hand, while putting my right hand on the big dragon egg, as I planned to perform the hatching at once.
The reason for that was pretty simple, if they were to be born at the same time, sharing the same source, they were more likely to be as intimate as siblings which would make my life much easier…
After all, both were exceedingly rare and proud species, and if one were to be \'hatched\' after the other, the first born may think that the newborn is going to threaten its position, and while the dragon would probably recover and become intelligent quite fast, it would still be as oblivious as a baby at the very beginning, using its own natural instincts…
Whether it was a Dragon or a Thunder lion, if they were to complete their \'hatching\' through human help, like my case, or any other similar situation other than relying on a natural source, the one who gives them their beginning elemental source would naturally become the number one person in their relative list, so it was easy to start a fight over the source donator…
As such, I was already starting the first step…
According to the second mental will left by the Thunder lion, the method of \'hatching\' its descendant depended on the source given, if it was a miraculously found natural source, then being fully immersed in it was a must, as natural sources were mostly diluted, however, if it was a man produced source, it would only require pushing the lightning source into the orb as it would be small in quantity but concentrated in quality…
The only complicated part was guiding the source through the correct paths in the orb, but it wasn\'t considered hard if we were to consider my \'Telekinesis\'.
The only difference was that I didn\'t plan on just doing that, I planned to try and change its basic attributes!
Why add only a lightning source to develop the lightning that isn\'t its actual attribute, when I have both thunder and lightning source, especially if it was just a counter nurture way that allowed it to only develop a pseudo lightning attribute, besides…
I had a great method to reference from!
The method provided by the Dragon Ancestor about how to merge a dual source into the egg was quite open with its restriction, so it wasn\'t impossible to use it as a reference to make the Thunder lion into a true dual element holder and not a pseudo one!
Of course, if it was any normal one elemental beast, such a method wouldn\'t work, but the nature of the Thunder lion made it very acceptable to use an actual dual source to fully develop two true attributes.
Only this way, would the actual blood contract between us make sense, or else, if I needed to take care of a normal Thunder lion in its infancy it would become a burden that I won\'t be able to take care of for long…
Using the seed division method in the \'Dragon Nurturing\' method, I used it twice on my lightning cell, reducing its size to 80% of its original ones, and producing two 10% mini lightning cells, repeating that process but only once on both the water cell and the thunder cell, I got the raw source ingredients that still needed to be treated.
[ Hexa-Element: 33.00 (+0.6) -0.4 ]
The treatment was simple source fusion, which would normally be impossible to use inside my body if not for \'Elemental Interfusion\', meaning that I would have to perform a more risky outside \'surgery\', but as I did have \'Elemental Interfusion\' it was as simple as producing the simple one element sources…
Taking only a few seconds, the dual-colored sources were now ripe for use, so I guided them out of my vessels to the palms of my hands, ready for the final \'Source Guiding\' step…
Thump! Thump!
Thump! Thump!
After performing \'Source Guiding\' at lightning speed, I could hear the sound of a pounding heart coming from both ends of my palms, which meant that the whole process was more or less a success, all that was left was to check the result…
\'...\'
A simple mistake could simply lead to one of them being deformed, so even though I was sure I did it flawlessly, I couldn\'t help but worry a bit, but I was mostly anticipating the end results of my success!
"Meow…"
\'Eh?\'
"Roar…"
\'What?\'
Hearing the very thin sounds, I wasn\'t given much time as I was suddenly blinded by the Lightning that suddenly clapped right at both my hand!
