The high-level Demon Beast was already rare to be seen in the Three Worlds.
But in the palace of King of the Netherworld, there were ten eggs of the high-level Demon Beasts which hadn’t been hatched.
Training a Demon Beast from its childhood was way better than catching a grown-up high-level Demon Beast. First, it was easier for the infantile Demon Beast to devote itself completely to its master than the elder ones. Also, the masters who raised a Demon Beast up wouldn ’ t need to worry about being swallowed by the Demon Beast ’ s s piritual p ower. What was more important, the beasts who had been trained since their childhood tended to be extremely loyal to their masters.
Therefore, most of the people would rather have a high-level Demon Beast egg which hadn ’ t been hatched than having a mature high-level Demon Beast. On ly t he ones who had experienced the differences were well aware of that fact.
The boy wasn ’ t aware of that, so he considered the Flying Chicken as a normal chicken.
As a soul from human world, he was very short of knowledge and experience.
He arrived at the Heaven Peak Palace straight away after the all-powerful King of the Netherworld had taken him out of the Desire Sea.
That had happened less than half an hour before Fire Phoenix arrived from the Underworld. Thus , the birth of the flying chicken really was an accident. T he boy who hadn ’ t expected that to happen wanted to toast the chicken right away to fill his belly. T he reason was...
Half an hour ago, the boy had been sent out of the Desire Sea by King of the Netherworld.
In the meantime, a high-level Demon Beast egg in the Heaven Peak Palace seemed to have sensed the b reath of King of the Netherworld and rolled down sud denly from the table of worship to the place where the boy had fallen. After the boy had pressed the egg with his butt, the egg broke o pen and a Flying Chicken impr es sed the world with i ts bi rth ...
The boy, having been in a daze for a while, asked at last, “ Where does this chicken come from? ”
King of the Netherworld only glanced at him and said without turning around his head, “ You have hatched the kitchen. ”
The boy fainted right away...
A fter half an hour, the boy recovered from the fact that he had hatched a chicken.
After making a huge mess, the boy finally caught the flying chicken which was fly ing a round with the “ help ” of Fire Phoenix. Then he rushed to King of the Netherworld excitedly, preparing to toast the whole chicken.
However, before he could light a fire, King of the Netherworld stopped him right away. The King spoke in a voice as indifferent as the cool breeze which came from nowhere.
“ The normal fire is not able to burn it. The Flying Chicken is a high-level Demon Beast of the first grade. It won ’ t be harmed by any kind of fire except for the True Fire of the Soul. Though Flying Chicken is in a low grade, it is good at speed. After you sign a contract with it, you can ride on it to flee if you run into any trouble. ”
“ Huh? ” Clearly the boy di d not fully underst an d what King of the Netherworld had said. However, he clear ly he ard the word ‘ flee ’ .
Although he really doubted if this creature which looked exactly like a normal chicken would have a fast speed, he still chose to trust the King ’ s words wi thout an y r eason . The boy had a feeling that the King would do him no harm, so he stopped thinking too much. However...
“ It looks so ugly. Don ’ t you have some pets which look more imposing? Like White Tiger? ”
No one could blame the boy for despising the chicken b ecause that was truly an ugly creature. The boy still felt that the best result for the chicken was being toasted. As for keeping the Flying Chicken as a pet, he really needed to hav e se con d thou ghts .
Hearing the word ‘ pet ’ , King of the Netherworld raised his eyebrows slightly. Then he answered quickly, “ White Tiger is a Sacred Beast. Only the Totem Sacred Lord is able to possess a Sacred Beast by inherit a nce . If you want a powerful beast, I can find you the ones which are more powerful than the Sacred Beasts. ”
“ What? There are beasts that are more powerful than White Tiger? ” The boy asked in s ho ck . mainl y be cau se he ha d a lack of knowledge and experience .
The creatures which were equally famous as the White Tiger were the Green Dragon, the Rose Finch and the Black Tortoise. T hese four creatures were T otem Sacr e d B easts b ut not in the highest grade , b ecause they were still inferior to the Super Mythical Beast like the Five Claw Golden Dragon or the Phoenix Kylin. As a matter of fact, the Super Mythical Beast also had an awe-inspiring reputation in the Three Worlds as the Four Sacred Beast. However, they seemed to have existed long ago. Now it was already very hard to see any Super Mythical Beast .
Since King of the Netherworld promised that he would find a beast which was more powerful than the White Tiger for the boy, he must mean the Super Mythical Beasts.
Others might not dare to make a promise like that, but King of the Netherworld w as the most likely person to be able to do that.
The boy saw the man nodding and then said reluctantly, “ Fine, I ’ ll take this chicken for the moment! ”
As a high-level Demon Beast, the Flying Chicken had already suffered a heavy blow from the boy. So it recognized the boy as its master without any resistance under the guidance of King of the Netherworld.
However, King of the Netherworld abru ptly raised the Chicken ’ s grade from the f irst to the n inth, afraid that the Flying Chicken wouldn ’ t be helpful in the critical moment. Right now, the Flying Chicken was one step away f rom becom ing a Sacred Beast. T he next level was Mythical Beast. Nevertheless, according to the Chicken ’ s intelligence, it might be very hard for it to become a Mythical Beast.
Even though the Chicken knew it only had a slim chance of becom ing a Mythical Beast, it was still filled with joy when realizing that it had been upgraded dir ectl y to the n inth g rade. Moreover, the Flying Chicken th at had high s piritual i ntelligence knew that King of the Netherworld treated the boy qu ite differently. Therefore, after sign i ng the contract with the boy, it decided to do its best to protect the boy. Swear on its soul!
Ever since then, every time the boy showed up, everyone could see a well -kn own fe ather less chicken beside him.
