Chapter 1344: Almost 10,000,000,000 Radiance Dollars of Provision
Liu Jie instructed the Insect Queen to produce many of the s.h.i.+eld Ladybugs.
The giant whale bones were very heavy. Although the Mother of Bloodbath, Kill Food Sky b.u.t.terfly, and Shadow could lift the bones easily, Lin Yuan and Liu Jie were unable to.
Every one of the Diamond s.h.i.+eld Ladybugs possessed Herculean strength, and 10 of them were enough to lift the giant whale bones.
As st.u.r.dy as the whale bones were, finding a way to extract the marrow was not difficult.
The whale bones were connected by the spine running from their heads to their tails. There were also many support bones below their heads.
The s.p.a.ce at the center of the whale’s skull was the weakest part of the whale bones, and a glue-like membrane covered the hole. This membrane would not rot in the whale fall. All one had to do was gently use a sharp object to break the membrane, and the marrow would spill out naturally.
Liu Jie, the Mother of Bloodbath, Kill Food Sky b.u.t.terfly, and Shadow used this method to extract the marrow from each set of bones to preserve the whale bones’ completeness.
Lin Yuan opened the Spirit Lock spatial zone and took out all the wind-type heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls.
Out of all the types of Elemental Sh.e.l.lfish, Lin Yuan had the least wind-type Elemental Sh.e.l.lfish. However, given that only the Floating Island Whale utilized the wind-type heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls, s.h.i.+ny had not had the chance to utilize them. As such, he had the highest number of wind-type heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls.
In front of the astonished Liu Jie, Kill Food Sky b.u.t.terfly, and Mother of Bloodbath, Lin Yuan produced box after box of wind-type heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls and placed them around the Floating Island Whale embryo.
Next, he plastered himself on the Floating Island Whale’s egg. He slit his palms and used his blood to form a link with the Floating Island Whale.
Frankly, Lin Yuan did not need to inject any more spirit qi into the Floating Island Whale embryo as there was sufficient spirit qi in the giant whales’ bone marrow for the Floating Island Whale’s needs.
Lin Yuan only needed to provide it with heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls.
However, it was clear that there was more pure water-elemental energy than spirit qi in the giant whales’ bone marrow.
In order to allow the Floating Island Whale embryo to absorb pure water-elemental energy and water-elemental energy, Lin Yuan planned on cutting off the spirit qi for the rest of the feys in the Spirit Lock spatial zone while the Floating Island Whale was absorbing the bone marrow.
When Gray was absorbing large amounts of pure spirit qi in the Spirit Lock spatial zone, Lin Yuan had been worried that the Floating Island Whale embryo would be affected.
Now that the Floating Island Whale had taken on the main role, he no longer had anything to be afraid of.
The Twin Red PaG.o.da, Intelligent Ganoderma Sinensis, and various Elemental Sh.e.l.lfish would not be greatly affected. The worst-case scenario would be that the Elemental Sh.e.l.lfish would be temporarily unable to produce elemental pearls.
The Mother of Bloodbath, Liu Jie, Kill Food Sky b.u.t.terfly, and Shadow quickly poured the whale marrow all over the Floating Island Whale embryo.
A storm of wind elements with the Floating Island Whale at the center swirled on the island.
If An He had not changed the terrain of the island and driven away all other lifeforms, the other lifeforms would be in trouble if they witnessed this scene.
Once whale marrow from 80 giant whales was poured on the Floating Island Whale egg, Lin Yuan could sense the Floating Island Whale banging against the sh.e.l.l. This showed that the Floating Island Whale was so eager to meet him that it was anxiously thras.h.i.+ng around.
Lin Yuan let out a sigh when he felt the Floating Island Whale’s affection toward him.
Although 2/3 of the giant whale marrow had already been used up, the Floating Island Whale embryo still had not let out a single whale cry. It seemed that there was no hope of the Floating Island Whale hatching today.
This was unsurprising as the Floating Island Whale embryo needed pure wind-elemental energy to grow, and there had been none at the bottom of the ocean.
The Gao family had been nurturing the Floating Island Whale ever since they received it but never provided it with any pure wind-elemental energy. This meant that the Floating Island Whale embryo had only started to be nurtured when it landed in Lin Yuan’s hands, entered the Spirit Lock spatial zone, and received its first influx of pure spirit qi, water-elemental energy, and wind-elemental energy.

If the Floating Island Whale embryo were still able to hatch after only absorbing the giant whales’ bone marrow without initially absorbing pure spirit qi, water-elemental energy, and wind-elemental energy, the Floating Island Whale would not be as valuable as it was.
Nonetheless, Lin Yuan was adamant about not touching the three Island Whales’ bone marrow.
After absorbing the bone marrow of so many giant whales, it would take the Floating Island Whale a month at the most to hatch. Thus, Lin Yuan would be able to see the Floating Island Whale hatch before the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection.
Lin Yuan had been looking forward to the Floating Island Whale hatching for a long time. Ever since he received the Floating Island Whale embryo, a day did not go by that he did not wish for the Floating Island Whale to hatch as soon as possible.
Without this large whale fall, it could take six months for the Floating Island Whale to hatch using just the resources available in the Spirit Lock spatial zone. But now, Lin Yuan only had to wait for another month.
The wind-type heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls stacked below the Floating Island Whale embryo were being used up at a visible rate.
After consuming so many precious spiritual ingredients and the Earth Center Fine Milk, Lin Yuan’s body had also improved.
Even if there were no healing-type feys around to heal the wound on his palm, he would be able to use his spirit to control the cells to accelerate healing.
Lin Yuan was in no rush to heal his wounds. Instead, he continued to supply blood in order to deepen his connection with the Floating Island Whale.
Liu Jie, the Mother of Bloodbath, and the rest continued to extract the whale marrow as they stared in shock at the wind-type heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls being used up.
With every breath that the Floating Island Whale took, at least 10 wind-type heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls and the marrow from one giant whale would be used up. This meant that the Floating Island Whale used up hundreds of millions of Radiance Dollars with every breath it took.
The Floating Island Whale took five breaths every minute. In 20 minutes, Lin Yuan had used up close to 10,000,000,000 Radiance dollars on the Floating Island Whale.
This speed of consumption was terrifying as even top factions in the Radiance Federation would not be able to afford it.
However, Lin Yuan’s gains and losses would balance out.
Besides the hatching speed issue, it was clear from its quality that Lin Yuan’s Floating Island Whale would be stronger and larger than the Island Whales hatched by other factions.
The wild Island Whales hatched in the sea could easily reach close to a length of 50,000 meters. Meanwhile, those hatched by top factions would only be able to reach a length of 30,000 meters at best.
