According to Zhou Daoquan, the demon beast incubating inside this snake egg he held was a mid-level demon beast called the Silver Lightning Python.
This Silver Lightning Python excelled in Thunder Element Spells and possessed formidable strength.
What was even more rare was that, like the Sky Azure Cloud Python owned by the Clan Leader Zhou Daoyi, the Silver Lightning Python also carried the Flood Dragon Bloodline, giving it the potential to ascend to a high-level or even top-level demon beast.
As for why the Silver Lightning Python inside the egg hadn't developed normal life previously, Zhou Daoquan speculated that it was likely because this was a premature egg.
Some pythons do not lay their eggs directly, but rather allow the eggs to incubate into little snakes inside their bodies.
The Silver Lightning Python belonged to this category as well.
However, due to some unknown circumstances, this particular egg was prematurely expelled, and the female python did not reinsert it.
