Chapter 41: Breaking Out of the Egg!
Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Feng Jiu's eyes were narrowed as she felt the biting chill from the pool's water and the pain from the multiple wounds on her body. But after the initial pain, came a feeling of soothing comfort, like a warm flow was softly passing over her weary body with gentle touches.
[Warm flow?]
She suddenly opened her eyes and looked at her body in the supposed to be chilly water. At that moment, she seemed to be able to detect a faint aura over the water's surface.
[Not mystical power, but pure and untainted spirit power!]
Looking at the pool that was emanating with faint traces of spirit power aura, she thought back to those Burrowing Gophers she had encountered previously. [Was it due to the spirit power from this pool that had caused them to become so big and strong?]
[But why would there be such pure and untainted spirit power aura in a place like this?]
As she fell deep in thought, the golden egg she had placed high up on the side of the pool suddenly shifted a little and without any other warning, it began to roll towards the pool.
'Ploom'
The golden egg dropped into the water and it quickly sank under the surface. Caught by surprise and shock, her hand grabbed at the Cosmos Sack and dagger and she quickly dived down into the water.
With her eyes open underwater, she could see the golden egg slowly and gradually sinking. But, she saw that as it got deeper down, the crystal clear water in the pool became dark and impenetrable by sight, looking like a bottomless pit filled with endless mysteries.
She was worried that if it sank deeper, her breathe would not hold out long enough, and she was also worried as she did not know what kind of things she would encounter if she went down deeper, hence, she increased her speed as she dived down. When she saw that she was getting nearer, she reached out her hand and grabbed at the egg, holding it close to her.
And just as she was about to swim up to towards the surface after securing the egg in her arm, she suddenly seemed to have spotted an algae covered stone door further down into the dark dim depths?
Although puzzled, she wasn't too curious at that moment as she couldn't hold her breath any much longer and she immediately kicked and pushed with her arm and legs to push her speedily up. And at that moment, the stone door deep down in the pool suddenly creaked open.
A tremendously strong suction came out from behind that door, just like a vortex from the bottom of the pool, that sucked all the water in towards the door, carrying her down together with it.
"Ugh!"
Caught within that tremendous suction within the water, she was not able to avoid getting herself spinning together with the whirlpool that had suddenly kicked up, and was sucked in through the door.
But the immense pressure from the water and being caught in that fiercely swirling vortex made her suddenly feel her heart's blood surge into her chest and she vomited it out through her mouth, with most of it falling squarely onto the golden egg she had clasped firmly in her arm. But before she saw the heart's blood that she coughed out being absorbed by the golden egg, everything suddenly turned black before her eyes and she lost consciousness…..
At that same moment, the golden egg began to emanate a faint golden glow, the complicated looking runes on its shell that had disappeared surfaced once more, spreading out over the exterior of the shell together with the golden light.
What was really beyond anyone's expectation was that the golden egg that had been approximately the size of two fists was suddenly gradually growing under the golden light. It was still clasped in Feng Jiu's arm, but it was now the size of a huge watermelon.
And right between Feng Jiu's eyebrows, a scarlet red rune of the Fire Phoenix appeared. And at the same time when that rune appeared, her body was suddenly bathed in a golden light, and the multitude of wounds upon her body were closing and healing at a speed visible to the eye…..
A loud crash resounded. Feng Jiu who had been pulled in by that strong vortex was thrown straight onto the ground, the water from the whirlpool splashing onto her body. The impact and the stinging pain woke her as she gradually regained her consciousness. As she slowly peered her eyes open, she was almost blinded by a bright golden light.
'Crack!'
The sound of a clear and crisp crack startled her and she looked down at the golden egg that had rolled out from her grasp which was now as big as a huge watermelon, with a long crack running down the side.
'Crack!'
The crack sounded again and another long zigzagged line appeared on the shell of the egg. And when she saw the two halves of the shell break open, she was suddenly stunned and rendered completely speechless…..
Chapter 42: Chubby Little Sacred Beast
Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
After the egg shell split open, what was revealed wasn't a tiny baby phoenix but was a tiny child who stuck all four of his limbs out straight, sprawled flat on the ground, with his naked little bottom sticking up.
A faint golden glow imbued with dense spirit power aura swirled around his body, which gradually faded. He seemed like he had just woke up as he slightly raised his head and opened his eyes that were clear as water, bewildered and dazed as he stared at the equally naked Feng Jiu.
It was only moments later that he gave a reaction. The pair of jet black eyes stared and a pair of red glowing flames burned within them. He jumped up suddenly and stuck one hand against his pudgy waist and pointed out with his other stubby hand at Feng Jiu on the ground, his childlike voice filled with impudent rage that one was unable to take seriously.
"You! Woman! I am the the Ancient Sacred Phoenix! You….. You... You had the audacity to visualize my godly image into a little bumbling human toddler!"
[Although he will be able to morph into human form after he matures, but, he had never for one moment thought that he will turn straight into a human toddler right after breaking out of his shell! He is the little Fire Phoenix! Little Fire Phoenix!]
Due to the contract, the contracted owner's imagination of his image would directly impact whether he would be born in the form of a beast or human. But, if he was born in human form, he would have to wait till he fully matures before he could morph into his original Fire Phoenix form.
[Heavens know how long it will be before he matures! ? And before he grows up, he will have to parade around in this little snot nosed human form throughout it all?]
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, and the more depressed he became. He wanted to cry, but he did not want to let the woman see that, so he could only stare intensely at the culprit behind all of this.
Feng Jiu was shocked into speechless amazement. [Did a child really just hatched out of that egg! ?]
Come on! She had only just imagined it once when she picked up that egg, on what the Phoenix would look like what it hatched out of the egg! She had just unconsciously thought of an adorable plump little kid then for just a brief moment!
Seeing the little bumbling toddler standing there with a hand stuck upon his fleshy hip, the other pointing angrily at her, fully exposing his naked little body and the little elephant's trunk waving before her. In a moment of itch in her hands, she coiled up her finger and thumb in one hand and flicked the tiny elephant's trunk.
"Argh! You….. What are you doing!"
A certain proud little Fire Phoenix was finally aware of his own nakedness and when he was suddenly teased down below, the shock made him feel both humiliated and angry, whereby he quickly back peddled a few steps quickly and covered himself with his stubby hands.
"You….. You shameless woman!"
He shouted out angrily in humiliation, his face blushing a deep red, his childlike voice not really giving his rage the impact that was intended.
At that moment, he seemed to only realise then of the woman's bare body and he quickly released one of the two hands protecting his modesty below to cover over his eyes and turning his body away.
"You are not wearing any clothes!" This time, even his ears were turning as red as his face.
Feng Jiu glanced at the small little boy who was showing such exaggerated reactions and she continued to tease mercilessly: "I can see your rounded little buttocks behind."
"Argh! You are truly a shameless woman! Shameless! Shameless!"
He was feeling completely helpless but he did not know any other words to curse, so all he could do was to keep repeating the word shameless.
Feng Jiu was feeling tickled and she could not help it but to laugh aloud. At the same time, she looked down at herself and suddenly realised that the wounds that was all over her body had completely healed?
Her deep eyes glinted with a trace of query and her gaze turned slightly, to look thoughtfully at the little Fire Phoenix who had changed the position of his hands to cover over his tiny buttocks.
[Was it because of this little fellow?]
She took out some strips of cloth from the Cosmos Sack to tie them securely around her chest and then pulled out a suit of men's clothes to slip onto herself. After putting on the belt, she reached a hand out in a cradle and carried up the stark naked little fellow.
"Argh! What….. what is this woman thinking of doing! ?"
Finding himself suddenly being carried up, he cried out in shock, both his hands covering his modesty as he stared warily at the woman.
