<h4> 1347 Even Xukong Doesn''t Know About The Twins? </h4>
The Grey Egg had been a source of wonder and confusion for Lin Mu and Senior Xukong since a long time.
They had known about the parents of the egg, the Fire Fang Snake and the ck Water Snake. Both were beasts that were well documented and there was plenty of information about them.
But the Grey egg that was born from them was simply a mystery.
Lin Mu had fed the egg copious amounts of Beast Qi over the years and no one knew just how much that had affected it. The time needed for the egg to hatch had also exceeded greatly than what should have been possible.
Xukong even wondered if the Egg was defective and would never be born.
And now that it truly had been born, he was even more shocked. As there wasn’t one, but two beasts born from it.
‘Twin snakes born from a grey egg... having powers of Yin and Yang... truly an enigma.’ Xukong thought to himself.
Lin Mu waited for a few minutes for Xukong to say something about the twin snakes, but it never happened. Even when three hours passed by, there was no response, making him wonder what happened.
“Did you learn something Senior? From the memories?” Lin Mu asked in doubt.
“I did learn quite a lot... but also did not understand some parts.” Xukong replied.
“Oh? Do you not know what the snakes are?” Lin Mu didn’t think that even Xukong would be unable to recognize the kind of a beasts they were.
“Unfortunately not.” Xukong denied. “I tried looking into their bloodline and find their origin through it, but I simply could not ess it.” He exined.
“You couldn’t ess it? How’s that possible with your strength senior?” Lin Mu was stunned.
“There can only be two reasons for that. Either the origin of their bloodline is stronger than me, or... it is something that never existed before.” Xukong replied. “I’m leaning towards thetter option.” He added.
“Something that never existed before... So it really is a new bloodline...” Lin Mu had considered it as one of the options in the past, but never expected this to really be it.
“I think your constant feeding with the Beast Qi might have brought forth a catalytic change. And this change didn’t just happen in the egg, but started from the parents themselves.
After all, you fed them the Beast Qi before the egg was born. Then after the birth of the Grey egg, you continued to feed it more.
This hassted for man years and now the effects are unprecedented.” Xukong exined.
“Then... doesn’t this mean, we can make more such eggs or beasts?” Lin Mu asked. “Little Shrubby had some great effects too.” He added.
“It might be possible, but it will be hard. The change in the twin snakes is far too drastic to be possible even with Beast Qi. Chances are it is something you might never be able to replicate.” Xukong rified.
“Why so senior?” Lin Mu asked.
“You’ve seen the abilities of the twin snakes. They can directly absorb and convert Yin and Yang Qis.

Both are considered as the source of all elements and things in existence. Among the myriad of beings in the entire universe, there are only a handful that can aplish the same.
Sure, many cultivators had the ability to control Yin and Yang, but no one had such innatepatibly. And on top of this, they are seemingly able to transform Yin into yang and vice-a-versa.
That is even more absurd than their high affinity to the Yin and Yang.” Xukong exined.
Lin Mu was left speechless for a few minutes after hearing this.
He understood just how special the twins really were.
“Their progress has been really fast too senior. If they continue as they are, I think they might exceed me soon enough. They are already at the peak of Dao shell realm too.” Lin Mu spoke after a while.
“Hmm... you used the beast taming method I taught you, right?” Xukong asked.
“Yes senior. I used the True Blood Imprint on them.” Lin Mu replied.
“The Great Slumber Bear’s bloodline might be able to maintain the True blood Imprint for enough time then. It shouldst till the twins reach the very peak of the immortal realm. You won’t have to worry till then.” Xukong spoke. “Hopefully by then, you will have developed a natural link with then and then the imprint wouldn’t have to matter at all.” He added.
“I hope so too senior.” Lin Mu nodded his head and thought of another question.
“Still senior, won’t I have to find more information about the twins? I mean, even if they are a new species, they are still snakes, so there should be some relevant information about them, right?” Lin Mu questioned. “Something that might help me understand them.”
He hoped that this information will allow him to develop a bond faster.
“There should be many ces with such information.” Xukong replied. “You can start with the Rust Sky world itself.”
“There will be information about them here, too?” Lin Mu raised a brow.
“Normal libraries and sect stores might not have it, but I know some ces that will be bound to have information.” Xukong stated.
“A ce bound to have information? What kind of ce, senior?” Lin Mu questioned.
“The temple of the four guardian beasts. Most immortal worlds have them and this world has it too.” Xukong answered.
“Temple of the four guardian beasts?” Lin Mu felt his memories stir.
He recalled some information he had read in the memoirs of the Lost Immortal. They talked about four mythical beasts that had existed in the universe since primordial times.
These beasts were also considered as the four guardian beasts.
“Yes... The four guardian beasts. The ck Tortoise, The White Tiger, The Vermillion Bird and the Azure Dragon.” Xukong revealed. “They protect and provide guidance to a myriad of worlds, and their representation is the temple of the four guardians.”
