My husband is pregnant!
Bai Yue caught the bright red fruit long before the branches on the Lin Ye tree withered and the fruit fell to the ground, and carefully examined it in her palm.
Bai Yue recalled that her sisters had told her that Lin Ye had recently generated a new kind of miraculous fire that had never been seen before in history.
She soon realized that it was not surprising that she had given birth.
Just as Emperor Yan could attain enlightenment, so too could the Elixir of Immortality.
Both are rare treasures of nature, and in fact, the difference in their nature is not far apart, but rather quite similar.
When Lin Ye's fire-type spiritual root undergoes transformation, it can produce a new kind of wondrous fire as a byproduct. Similarly, a wood-type spiritual root can produce a fruit as a byproduct.
They looked the same, but Bai Yue, holding the fruit in both hands, was caught in a dilemma:
'That newly born wondrous fire has already been placed in the Spirit-Nourishing Array for nurturing; Young Master Lin will definitely refine it.'
'But what about the fruit?'
'Although they are similar in nature, but...' Bai Yue raised her eyebrows: 'This seed can clearly be planted.'
Planting it will definitely yield the highest returns.
Thinking of this, Bai Yue knew perfectly well how Lin Ye would deal with the fruit.
Yes, I can plant them!
'If it grows into a tree and takes on a human form, would it be considered my husband's daughter?'
Actually, it should be counted.
But Bai Yue felt that if she acknowledged it as her daughter, wouldn't the fruit it bore become her granddaughter?
This is so hard to eat!
'Wait, we can't be sure if it will grow into a fruit tree! It might be something else...'
Bai Yue broke out in a cold sweat. After scanning with her divine sense, her tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed.
It's not a fruit tree!
Once it grows up, it seems to become a very powerful magical artifact.
Even just the fruit itself exuded a rather chilling aura.
Imagining Lin Ye holding his daughter, who was shaped like a small tree, and unleashing countless rays of light to strike people, Bai Yue smiled.
"Father and daughter are of one mind."
Why can we be so sure that Lin is a girl? We need to start with the environment of the Fairy Pool.
Spiritual plants that take shape by consuming the water of the Immortal Pool will all possess pure Yin attributes.
Just like Bai Yue.
Bai Yue felt that the water in the Immortal Pool had a certain guiding effect on her transformation, as if there was a blueprint for it.
The resulting spiritual plants will naturally have slightly similar body shapes and facial features, resembling sisters.
Therefore, this precious fruit is also Bai Yue's half-sister.
Bai Yue only has a mother, and this fruit only has a father.
What Bai Yue didn't know was that the model for her transformed form was the Martial Emperor, since the Immortal Pool water was the Martial Emperor's blood!
The origin of this fruit is quite extraordinary.
Since her birth was related to both the Martial Emperor's Treasure Mirror and the blood of the Martial Emperor's Immortal Remains, she can also be considered the daughter of the Martial Emperor and Lin Ye.
Does it count...?
'It doesn't count!'
Soon after, the Tai Chi water prison beside Lin Ye transformed into an ice ball, which then cracked open with a bang, scattering ice crystals all over the ground.
Collect all the ice crystals!
The transformation of earth attributes only takes a short time.
On the eve of the final transformation of his earth attribute, Lin Ye learned about the fruit he had borne.
As a true man, Lin Ye felt nothing; after all, it was just a fruit growing on his body.
But he could guess, and dared not even imagine, how secretly pleased the Martial Emperor would be if he knew the inside story (besides the bronze coffin being obtained).
There's no way I could tell her this.
In no time, Lin Ye shed the layer of dirt from his body, and like a newly unearthed antique, his whole body burst forth with surging power!
......
The moonlight, like water, and the vast Milky Way, enveloped the mountain peaks atop towering cliffs.
An old dragon stood silently between heaven and earth, its long beard flowing, its eyes as deep as an ancient well, as if it could see through all things in the world.
His figure appeared exceptionally lonely in the night, yet it exuded an unyielding pride.
The old dragon has cultivated for a thousand years, enduring wind, frost, rain, and snow. Finally, he is about to undergo tribulation. The tribulation of lightning will last for three days and three nights. This is the only way for cultivators to reach a higher realm, and it is also a test of life and death.
Now, it is the third day of the tribulation, and the old dragon has already survived a total of seventy-two lightning tribulations.
There are nine more to go.
In the distance, numerous Nascent Soul and even Mahayana powerhouses watched from afar, discussing amongst themselves:
"The old demon emperor has exhausted all his methods. Starting from the seventy-first lightning tribulation, he has been completely relying on his body to withstand it."
"Will this work? Even a body cultivator couldn't do that!"
"The physical body of the Azure Dragon bloodline is not bad. Let's see how he deals with the last nine lightning tribulations."
The old demon emperor closed his eyes to recover his energy, feeling a series of sharp pains throughout his body.
But this wasn't a tribulation of lightning; it was the rotting flesh on his body that was constantly eroding him...
If I had to pinpoint the moment when I was at my weakest, it would be right now, on the eve of the final nine tribulations of lightning striking one after another.
The rotting flesh had remained undisturbed until now.
The old demon emperor sighed softly: 'It has finally come.'
Suddenly, the old demon king's expression turned ferocious, and strips of hideous flesh involuntarily burst forth from his waist and abdomen!
The audience was astonished by the diverse and unusual performances of the ceremony.
"What kind of monster is this?"
The flesh and blood bursting from the old demon emperor's body intertwined and gradually coalesced into a rope...
The rotting flesh caused the old demon emperor to continuously bleed pale golden blood of a half-immortal. He remained silent, revealing his true form as a blue dragon. His lake-like eyes were embedded in the tribulation clouds, and his enormous body was rooted in the mountains, flowing down a torrent of blood.
Yuan Ting's flesh and blood let out a sneer: "Aren't you going to struggle?"
Old Dragon sneered, "I've been trying to get rid of you for decades, and I'm happy to see you leave on your own!"
laugh!
A monster tore at the old demon king's flesh and blood, breaking off from his body.
The Mahayana cultivators were all shocked: it was a jet-black dragon, but it did not have a complete dragon shape. Instead, it resembled an earthworm as thick as a mountain, and even its head was a ferocious maw, releasing an unprecedentedly terrifying pressure.
Suddenly, everyone felt an immense pressure sweeping across thousands of miles.
boom!
All the cultivators below the Mahayana stage who were attending the ceremony fell to the ground, crashing heavily onto the base of the sixth-grade grand formation, never to rise again.
Even the Mahayana cultivators were filled with doubt and suspicion. The Sun King and the Golden Crow King exchanged a glance, sensing something was amiss.
The two of them had only ever felt such a powerful pressure from the Lord of the Great Wilderness.
boom!
The two dragons entangled, the strange dragon tearing at the old demon emperor's wounds, but only managing to gnaw off a few scales from the edge. The violent aftershocks nearly shattered the sixth-grade array, and cracks began to spread.
Yuan Ting couldn't help but laugh: "The secret of the character 'Lin'?"
The Mahayana cultivators were shocked: "A sixth-grade grand formation was almost broken!"
"The old demon emperor was actually able to withstand it; he's still going strong for his age!"
"We should be able to kill this monster!"
The old demon emperor's heart sank.
He left himself some leeway, with another hundred years of life remaining.
This lifespan, and the secret of the character "临" (Lin), are both intended to be used during the final nine heavenly tribulations.
The fight with this monster lasted only a moment, but the structure of the Lin character secret was already shaking violently.
It won't last much longer...
The opponent possessed an unreasonable and immense power, which made the old demon emperor, whose power was nearing the limit of this realm, feel deeply uneasy.
A complex look flashed in his eyes as he glanced at the distant calamity clouds.
Yuan Ting said, "Do you still think you have a chance to live until the next tribulation?!"
boom!
Another fierce battle ensued. The structure of the Lin character secret manual was violently shaken, almost torn apart by the strange dragon. The old dragon gritted its teeth, and its internal magic power surged out like flowing water, trying its best to maintain the stability of the Lin character secret manual.
The strange dragon unleashed a variety of bizarre supernatural powers and spells, becoming increasingly dense and powerful. The old dragon's body trembled under the bombardment, as if it were about to collapse at any moment. Its scales were scorched by lightning and fire, leaving behind shocking scars on its body. However, it seemed as if it did not feel the pain, and its eyes remained as firm as ever, showing no intention of retreating.
Yuan Ting said easily, "I was born from your flesh and blood, and my power is no different from yours, yet you are no match for me."
"The 'Lin' character secret, heh... it won't last long. That kid taught you that? Why isn't he here? Is he too scared to come see me?"
After a long silence, the old demon emperor finally responded, roaring, "There's no need for him to come!"
The old dragon transformed into human form, suddenly roared to the sky, and his magical power surged. His aged figure suddenly became young, and boiling blood light ignited around him.
His body began to radiate a brilliant light, as if resonating with the Dao of Heaven.
The strange dragon also transformed into human form and grinned.
Boom boom boom!
With a resolute glint in his eyes, the old dragon charged forward with his sword. After a burst of bloody light erupted from his body, the situation suddenly reversed, the heavens and earth trembled, and the strange dragon, who had also transformed into human form to fight, was suppressed to the point of being almost powerless to resist.
Despite having gained the upper hand, the Mahayana cultivators couldn't bear to watch any longer.
Qian Yuan Burning Blood...
The old demon king's human form had reverted from that of an old man to that of a young man, indicating that he had exhausted his remaining lifespan and this was merely a final burst of energy before death.
Even if he could kill the monster dragon, he would still be unable to survive the final nine heavenly tribulations.
It can be said that this was a battle destined to be lost!
The old demon emperor, however, was completely absorbed and felt extremely happy.
A hundred years ago, when he broke through to the ninth level of Mahayana Buddhism, he thought he was the best in the world.
In recent decades, he has gradually lost that idea.
But today, feeling light and ethereal, he felt that he was indeed the best in the world!
"Boom—" Yuan Ting's flesh and blood were sent flying backward, piercing through the mountain and crashing onto the base of the great formation. The Mahayana cultivators' eyes lit up with joy.
Did they win? The old demon king fought with his life on the line, sacrificing himself to destroy this monster!
Suddenly, a blood-red figure shot straight into the sky with unstoppable force, shattering the Lin character secret on the old demon emperor's body with a single sword strike. The half-immortal, whose lifespan had come to an end, bled profusely, his eyes flashing with disbelief.
Yuan chuckled eerily in his ear and whispered, "How can you defeat me using the divine power I created?"
The old demon king's eyes narrowed: "You..."
boom!
Yuan Ting kicked out, and the old dragon was pulled off the sword and fell to the foot of the mountain, its fate unknown.
Yuan Ting looked around: "They're not here yet...?"
While he was observing, the Mahayana cultivators showed expressions of surprise.
The old demon king was entangled in a fierce battle with them, but soon fell into a disadvantageous position and was forcibly cut down. There was no way they could intervene!
