A moment later, he turned around with a grim expression. "This eagle egg has no life force at all. Didn’t you notice?"

The Flying Eagle Witch sprang to his feet and hurried over to the egg. Dark green witch power gradually enveloped the egg the Snow Tiger Witch had just inspected.

After a moment, his expression abruptly darkened...

"Before I left the tribe, I checked them all myself. Every egg I brought had life force. How could this..."

The nearby Flying Eagle Tribe Leader clenched his fists, staring at the egg before the witch, speechless for a long moment.

After a long pause, he staggered over and cradled the lifeless egg, his entire body trembling.

The dignified Golden Rank, three-striped Beastman was now crying like a small cub. The others in the cave could even hear his tears dripping onto the eggshell.

"This is the third of his children to die."

The Flying Eagle Witch’s voice was hoarse, as if countless suppressed screams were caught in his throat.

The Snow Tiger Witch closed his eyes. He said nothing, but walked forward and tested every single one of the eagle eggs.

"Only these three still have any life force, and even that is very faint."

The Flying Eagle Witch wiped his face. His normally somber features were now etched with despair.

’As the witch of a tribe, he couldn’t even find the reason why their young were dying one by one.’

Now, the Flying Eagle Tribe was facing extinction.

Seeing his old friend in such a state, the Snow Tiger Witch’s heart ached. He stepped forward and patted his shoulder. "I’ll perform a witch’s blessing for the three remaining young ones right now. We’ll see if we can strengthen their life force."

The Flying Eagle Witch nodded. "Alright."

They were old friends who had known each other for hundreds of years; there was no need for formalities between them.

A moment later, Half beastman Warriors had surrounded the tribe’s ritual altar. The rest of the tribe had been notified they were not allowed to approach it.

On the altar, ten eagle eggs were arranged in a neat row. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Tiger, can your witch power sustain this?"

the Flying Eagle Witch asked, looking worriedly at the Snow Tiger Witch.

The Snow Tiger Witch glanced at him with a smile. "Don’t underestimate me. I may look a little weathered, but my body is still young. I’m a witch in his prime, you know."

With that, he lightly touched his witch’s wand to the ground. Amplified by the wand and the altar, the witch power within his Witch Body grew purer and more potent, instantly forming a giant, sapphire-blue cocoon that enveloped the ten eggs.

As his witch power connected with the ten eagle eggs, the Snow Tiger Witch instantly felt the life force within some of them stir with excitement. However, the eggs that had already lost their life force remained deathly still, showing no reaction at all.

After pouring a third of his body’s witch power into the three eggs, the Snow Tiger Witch wearily withdrew his power.

The Snow Tiger Tribe Leader and the Flying Eagle Tribe Leader both stood anxiously at the foot of the altar, not daring to take a single step onto it.

The Flying Eagle Witch stepped forward to support the Snow Tiger Witch’s arm, his eyes filled with a mixture of worry and anticipation. "Are you alright?"

The Snow Tiger Witch smiled and nodded. "It’s not often you ask me for help, old friend. Thankfully, I didn’t disappoint you. The life force in those three eggs is very strong now. If it doesn’t diminish and things continue like this, they should successfully hatch in less than half a month."

Hearing this, the Flying Eagle Witch’s hand, still supporting the Snow Tiger Witch, began to tremble uncontrollably. "Really?"
