Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 396: The Crystal Egg Hatches

With his keen perception, Tang San sensed that the Crystal Demon Emperor's consciousness had just disappeared.

This realization allowed him to relax.

The Hell Garden was a unique and strange space where divine power was severely restricted. This meant that even if the Crystal Demon Emperor had left a sliver of his consciousness in the crystal egg, it couldn't convey messages to the Crystal Demon Emperor from this realm. And now that the remnant consciousness had vanished entirely, whatever it had sensed about Tang San, the Crystal Demon Emperor would never know.

Four-tailed Celestial Fox? Did the Celestial Fox Transformation just advance to the seventh order? Damn, I should have brought Du Bai along!

The hundred-meter white flower's petals were gently pulsating. In his heart, Tang San silently named it the Heavenly Bloom. It was a stunning flower, seemingly filled with all the world's goodness.

At the center of the Heavenly Bloom was a platform about five meters in diameter resembling a lotus pod, with light golden protrusions emitting a strange radiance.

Tang San knew this was where the crystal egg needed to go. He floated down toward the center. He encountered no danger, only feeling the tangible baptism of life energy and luck. His Celestial Fox Transformation power grew every moment, and even his other bloodline imprints rapidly grew stronger.

This was the powerful combination of luck and life energy. Here, it seemed all bloodlines would evolve, and the limit of that evolution could very well be one's cultivation level.

In that ethereal moment, Tang San had a special feeling as he landed at the center of the Heavenly Bloom. He was enveloped by a golden glow, with luck and life energy from all around converging toward him like rivers into the sea.

The crystal egg in his hand frantically absorbed this energy, as did Tang San himself.

Apart from the Celestial Fox Transformation, all his other imprints rapidly evolved. The limit was, of course, his own cultivation. The Lion-Tiger Transformation remained at the peak of the eighth order, unable to advance further but becoming more refined. The imprints below the eighth order were evolving toward it, and those already at the eighth order were advancing toward its peak. The life energy here was so dense that it nourished his body as well, and even his divine consciousness!

Tang San clearly felt his spiritual power was frantically absorbing external energy, feeding it back to his divine consciousness, and allowing his divine consciousness to recover many times faster than before.

The crystal egg in his hand became scorching hot in a short time, with the patterns on its surface now radiating a dazzling light.

Tang San looked down at the heart of the Heavenly Bloom beneath his feet. This was undoubtedly the most terrifying natural treasure in this isolated plane, if not in the entire world.

It had golden protrusions that looked like seeds. Tang San squatted down, trying to take one, but as he reached out, a sudden, intense palpitation stopped him. For some reason, he was incredibly certain that if he took this lotus seed, he would face enormous danger.

His Celestial Fox Transformation had just advanced to the seventh order, and his premonition of danger had naturally improved. Coupled with the perception brought by his divine consciousness, he immediately stopped his action.

The heart of the Heavenly Bloom contained eighteen golden lotus seeds. Tang San did not take any but instead placed the crystal egg in the center of the flower's heart.

At this moment, the Heavenly Bloom suddenly started to shake. The entire flower quivered, making Tang San feel dizzy and disoriented.

Immediately afterward, a melodious song began, and Tang San felt as if someone was singing right next to his ear. To his shock, the song was actually produced by the huge petals of the Heavenly Bloom rubbing against each other!

“Hell and heaven both exist in the human world!”

“Hell and heaven both exist in the human world...”

With each song repetition, the surrounding life energy and fortune instantly became more intense.

What surprised Tang San even more was that he suddenly noticed white light spots gradually forming in the air above the Heavenly Bloom. These white light spots slowly took shape, turning into white jade-like stones, then gently floated up into the sky.

Tang San shivered from the very core of his being. With just one glance, he recognized the stones' appearance and felt their aura.

Fortune Stones!

These were the very Fortune Stones he had obtained on the Celestial Fox Sacred Mountain! The tokens of the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor!

There weren’t too many of these stones, but they truly existed at the top of the Heavenly Bloom! They slowly floated into the sky, silently disappearing.

Tang San suddenly turned around, looking around, and suddenly understood what this place was.

Looking down at the Heavenly Bloom beneath him, he took a deep breath, realizing he had likely touched upon the core secret of this plane.

At this moment, a faint cracking sound pulled Tang San back from his thoughts.

Looking down, he saw that cracks had begun to appear on the surface of the crystal egg.

Is it about to hatch? So soon?

He had no way of knowing that when the Crystal Demon Emperor gave him this crystal egg, it was already close to hatching. Moreover, the Crystal Demon Emperor did not expect him to bring the crystal egg to the Hell Garden; he had no idea Tang San would come here.

However, once he reached the Hell Garden, the attraction of the Heavenly Bloom naturally led him here, accelerating the hatching process. At the same time, Tang San himself gained great benefits here.

"Hell and heaven both exist in the human world!"

The melodious song continued to echo throughout the Hell Garden.

Tang San squatted beside the crystal egg, staring at it without blinking.

What exactly is it? A dragon? Or...

As he was thinking, suddenly, a crisp crack sounded as a piece of eggshell fell off. Immediately, a small, white, tender hand reached out from inside the eggshell, grabbed the fallen piece, and pulled it back into the egg.

Then, the sound of cracking came from inside the eggshell.

What the hell is this...

Tang San stared in astonishment at this scene. Soon, the little hand stretched out again, this time directly grabbing a piece of eggshell, easily breaking it, and pulling it back inside.

For some reason, Tang San felt that the little hand seemed to have grown slightly larger than the first time.

He quickly moved closer, peeking through the opening into the eggshell.

Inside the eggshell, a small body was curled up. Her short silver hair still looked damp; her skin was very white and she looked very tender. Her little hands held the piece of eggshell she had just grabbed, eating it with great relish.

This was clearly a little human girl! She couldn’t exactly be called a newborn; she looked to be about a year old, but... a little human girl?!

Then, Tang San saw that the girl seemed to grow as she ate the eggshell. And it wasn't just the eggshell; the rich life force from the Heavenly Bloom also infused her, seemingly accelerating her growth.

...What in the... A human born from an egg?

This wasn't something new to Tang San, in fact. His grandson was born this way in his previous life; his daughter-in-law was the mighty Silver Dragon King, and dragons laying eggs was perfectly normal.

But what was going on with this crystal egg? Could it be a similar situation? A descendant of the Crystal Demon Emperor and a human woman?
