Dragon Tamer-Chapter 394 - 396: The Azure Firefly Sprite

Chapter 394: Chapter 396: The Azure Firefly Sprite

The dragon egg bore a seal that was hard to detect.

Usually, it’s these people who would bet on dragons; they imposed a spell on the dragon egg to delay the hatching process.

This would not only not affect the normal development of the creature within the dragon egg but could also make the life inside even healthier.

The moment of revelation was upon them.

Everyone’s gaze had fixed upon this somewhat legendary dragon egg.

Zhu Minglang glanced around.

It was quite amusing, how everyone else seemed even more nervous than him, the person directly involved.

But this method of betting on dragon eggs was indeed a bit thrilling.

If you really thought the dragon egg was of high value, you had to keep upping the ante.

The more you followed through, the more money you had to put up, and if someone stubbornly contended with you, it could end up costing a fortune, and you might still end up with nothing.

But these were the rules here.

After all, anything was possible. What if you accidentally won a high-lineage young dragon? No matter how much money you’d spent, you could get a huge return.

Zhu Minglang wasn’t nervous.

Tens of thousands of gold, heh, that was peanuts to him now.

Back in Pear Blossom Gully, Zhu Minglang had acquired a large number of gemstones, all of which he sold to the Di Clan of Runyu City, netting a profit of one million gold.

The resources he had scavenged from the major powers in the Imperial City had also not yet been fully spent.

“Mr. Zhu, please, you may drop a drop of blood from your thumb,” said the queen of Xia Yu Country. “Obtaining a spirit bond before its birth will make the little one more loyal.”

Zhu Minglang nodded, letting a drop of blood fall onto the spirit egg from his thumb.

This act of bloodletting was merely for gaining a spirit bond, not yet the formal signing of a spirit contract.

The advantage of choosing a juvenile spirit was that their minds were still developing, making it very easy to establish a spirit bond with them.

As for those adult spirit beasts that had been cultivating in the deep mountains and forests for many years, even if you cut your wrist and dripped your blood dry, you wouldn’t be able to leave even a half-mark on their foreheads—they would look at you as if you were a fool.

After leaving a spirit bond imprint, Zhu Minglang could already feel the breath of the little life within the eggshell.

When the seal was broken, the breath of the little life instantly strengthened, as if it had long been ready to break out of the shell, and the thin outer shell immediately cracked open like an overripe fruit.

A pair of sharp ears were the first to stand up from the broken eggshell.

Little specks of unique glow spirit light, like summer fireflies in the grass, began to fly out from the spirit egg.

Immediately after, a small body that also radiated a glowing light emerged, appearing somewhat curious and also a bit nervous.

It raised its head, and its sharp ears slid to the sides. A pair of surprisingly large eyes shimmered like the clear bay, flickering as they looked attentively at Zhu Minglang.

The fur was somewhat soft and also radiated the same glow spirit light as when the eggshell cracked open. Zhu Minglang initially thought it was due to spiritual energy stored within, but soon realized that the body fur of this little creature naturally glowed.

It emitted a pale blue firefly-like luminescence; its spirit fur enveloped its body, making it look like a glowing little furball…

“So cute,” the maid couldn’t help but reach out and pick up the fluffy little spirit.

Although the little spirit was in the soft palm of the maid’s hand, it still watched Zhu Minglang, as if it knew who was truly trustworthy.

“What is this?” someone already expressed confusion.

“It’s not a young dragon.”

“Without the dragon mark, indeed it’s not a dragon.”

“Just a spiritual Juvenile Spirit??”

“Hahaha, more than two hundred thousand gold for a furball beast like this, it’s laughable, truly laughable!” At this time, Han Su had already begun to mock without restraint.

The light blue Glow Spirit seemed to have been frightened by the nasty comments and immediately leaped onto Zhu Minglang’s body, as if it only felt safe while perched there.

Zhu Minglang was stroking its fluorescence-emitting fur, also unable to figure out what kind of creature it was.

It was quite extraordinary, clearly not just any common wildlife. frёewebnoѵēl.com

But it was a pity it wasn’t a young dragon.

In this case, he couldn’t take it into the Spirit Realm to nurture.

Of course, Zhu Minglang wasn’t too disappointed, as he had come to purchase a Juvenile Spirit for reserves in the first place.

With his current strength, even if some common wild Juvenile Spirits could successfully transform into dragons, they might not meet his needs, whereas those with higher innate talents and stronger characteristics during their Juvenile Spirit phase were worth acquiring, so they wouldn’t be outstripped by his other dragons after transformation.

“Congratulations, young master, for acquiring a Glow Spirit. In our Xia Yu Country, such little sprites are said to bring good luck,” the queen of Xia Yu Country said with a smile.

“Yes, it’s quite cute. I like it a lot,” Zhu Minglang responded.

The adorable little sprite, with its whole body covered in azure, shimmering fur, resembled a budding firework. However, it lacked the dramatic allure and intensity of firework, its gentle glow exuded a special charm that could affect a person’s emotions.

“These kinds of things, I buy several of them each month from the marketplace to give to those noble ladies as pets who can’t recognize their worth. They look even better than this one, and it’s a good thing this young master cut his losses in time, or I would have ended up with such a worthless Juvenile Spirit today,” Han Su said with a hint of smugness.

“It has not transformed into a dragon yet, who knows, it might turn out to be quite extraordinary after its transformation?” Luo Shaoyan said dissatisfaction.

“Don’t deceive yourselves. Don’t you understand that this little guy actually can’t digest Spiritual Energy? Before it hatched, you might have said so, but now that it’s hatched, did it assimilate the Spiritual Energy for its own use? No, right? Without it, it’s just trash, worthless,” Han Su snorted.

As a person also somewhat famous for discerning dragons in the Neon Sea, Han Su was not foolish.

The point of spending a lot of money on a Spirit Egg is all about the inherent talents it possesses.

In this world, there exist some creatures that are born with certain abilities, some can sense danger and avoid it in time, some can absorb the elements and assimilate them, some evolve rapidly due to peculiar talents, some can gather Spiritual Energy just like a Dragon Trainer…

Such Juvenile Spirits, even if they never transform into dragons, are worth nurturing, not to mention if they leap through the Dragon Gate and continue to possess these talents, they could vastly surpass ordinary Dragon Beasts!

Tens of thousands in price.

At an auction, you could even buy a young dragon of Dragon Lord lineage.

Instead, to fight tooth and nail over a Juvenile Spirit here??

Naturally, it’s because of the inherent gifts of the Juvenile Spirit!

The reason Han Su didn’t make a bid is that he already knew the issue with this little one.

It could gather Spiritual Energy, but not absorb it.

Now that it had hatched, it further confirmed the professional judgment of these discerning masters of dragons.

Without this unique talent.

What use is this Juvenile Spirit?
