Gu Lingfei only needed to draw lots, while Jiang Che had many more things to consider.
Now, his strength was at the peak of the Martial God stage, and his life level was completely different from when Shen Yu was pregnant before!
When Shen Yu was pregnant, Jiang Che had just entered the Shattering Heaven stage, with a relatively low life level, making conception not too difficult—putting in some effort would suffice.
But now... getting Gu Lingfei pregnant would keep Jiang Che very busy.
Fortunately, Jiang Che was a being with exceptionally comprehensive abilities.
......
Just as Jiang Che was busy with the grand plan for a second child.
A scroll painting appeared above the dome of the Dragon Palace.
In the painting was the portrait of a woman, dressed in white with white hair, her face devastatingly beautiful. Yet, when you gazed at her features, her countenance quickly grew increasingly blurred in your mind until you completely forgot it!
"A Dao Body?"
The woman in the painting slowly stepped out, standing with her hands behind her back, her gaze calmly overlooking the Dragon Palace below.
"The Devour Immortal Demon Body, a Dao Body naturally attuned to the Demonic Path!"
The woman's eyes flickered uncertainly, "Why would the Mortal Realm give birth to such a physique? And so many Immortal Bodies as well..."
"The Heavenly Dao of the Mortal Realm no longer sends down heavenly tribulations now. It seems the reason lies here... But even if you squeezed the Mortal Realm's Heavenly Dao dry, it couldn't possibly produce dozens of Immortal Bodies, let alone a Dao Body."
The woman's brow seemed to furrow slightly, but for an existence of her level, such matters were already inconsequential. Even the Immortal Realm, eagerly anticipated by countless immortals across the Nine Heavens, was merely a change of residence for her.
"Demonic Path Origin... are you stirred?"
The woman began speaking to herself. Having fused with the Demonic Path Origin, she had already begun to comprehend the Dao, and her Demonic Path Origin was now throbbing with excitement.
All because of an unborn fetus in the Dragon Palace below!
The Devour Immortal Demon Body!
A Dao Body not seen for a million years, and yet it was a Demonic Path physique—absolutely the most compatible constitution for a demonic cultivator. For it to stir the very origin of the Demonic Dao speaks volumes.
The woman lowered her eyelids, then vanished from her spot, appearing the next second before Shen Yu's room in the Dragon Palace.
......
Shen Yu, already thirteen months pregnant, was studying formation arrays.
The baby in her belly was still very active every day, kicking her from time to time, but this wasn't a concern for Shen Yu. In fact, her maternal instincts were gradually being awakened.
"Baby, be good. Mommy is at a critical moment," Shen Yu gently stroked her belly with her fair hand. The baby seemed to understand her words and actually stopped moving.
Shen Yu's cultivation had also broken through to the Martial God stage, forcibly elevated by Jiang Che. The formation array she was researching was already extremely complex!
The Dao of formation arrays is often highly intricate, involving inscribing array patterns onto formation flags. A single flag might require millions or even hundreds of millions of patterns. It's very common for a super-large formation to require millions of flags, let alone an Immortal-grade formation?
Shen Yu was studying with great care, so focused that she didn't even perceive the appearance of a stranger before her.
"This part here is wrong. Inscribing the array this way is too inefficient. It should be done like this..."
Suddenly, a voice reached Shen Yu's ears.
Shen Yu listened and even nodded, "It can actually be done this way?"
A full half minute passed before Shen Yu realized there was a stranger beside her.
"You... who are you?"
Shen Yu looked up, her face astonished as she stared at the woman before her. This woman was beautiful... breathtakingly so.
"You don't need to know who I am," the white-haired woman slowly walked up to Shen Yu, her gaze settling on Shen Yu's belly.
"A Demonic Dao Sovereign Body! The future Demon Lord..." Her hand reached directly towards Shen Yu's rounded pregnant belly.
Shen Yu instantly grew alert.
"Who are you!!!" When it concerned her child, even Shen Yu, usually composed, became tense.
"I am an Immortal. My name is Shang Xie, my honored title is Zhenmo. You may call me Immortal Shang Xie Zhenmo. The fetus in your womb possesses the Devour Immortal Demon Body. I intend to take your child as my disciple..."
Shen Yu frowned. An Immortal? Coming to find her? No... it must be because of her child!
"Take as a disciple? You... you should go find my husband. I cannot make this decision!" Shen Yu forced herself to remain calm, her hands protectively covering her lower abdomen.
"That one... I will not see him. The time is not right! You only need to answer, agree or disagree."
"You..." Shen Yu was momentarily indecisive. After all, this woman clearly seemed difficult to reason with. What if she angered her...
"Can you give me a few days? I need to consider."
"No need to consider. You only need to say yes or no. Don't try to contact him through the subsystem either; I won't harm you." The woman's voice remained flat.
Shen Yu's pupils constricted. She could actually see through the subsystem Jiang Che gave her?
"You must swear a Heavenly Dao oath that you will absolutely not harm my child." Even facing an Immortal of unknown origin, Shen Yu did not back down.
"Heavenly Dao cannot bind me. I shall swear by the Great Dao instead..."
Shen Yu was extremely tense. This seemed like a dead end. She didn't even dare to call for Jiang Che's help, as this woman could appear here undetected... her strength was undoubtedly immense. Shen Yu feared leading trouble to Jiang Che.
"I agree, as long as you do not harm my child."
"The contract is sealed!" Shang Xie's eyes narrowed slightly. She then tossed down a black pearl and vanished from the spot.
......
Jiang Che narrowed his eyes, his fingers lightly tapping the table. The atmosphere was quite oppressive.
"Immortal Shang Xie Zhenmo? What exactly is her origin? She can actually interfere with my subsystem?"
Jiang Che felt a slight panic. After all, the tier of his subsystem could even purify extradimensional evil spirits, but for those few minutes when Shen Yu was held... it was as if his subsystem's connection had been cut?
This made Jiang Che understand that his system was not an invincible existence. After all, there were still terrifyingly powerful super-beings in this world.
[System, what is the origin of this Immortal Shang Xie Zhenmo? Can you check?]
The system stalled for a moment before giving an answer.
[One of the Ancient Immortals. A powerful Immortal who entered the Dao through Demonic cultivation. Among the first batch of Six Tribulation Immortal Emperors during the Ancient Heavenly Court era. Obtained the origin of the Demonic Dao, ranked 19th among the Three Thousand Great Daos. Lives as long as the heavens. Currently the Pavilion Master of the Demonic Heaven Pavilion within the Destiny Bearer Association... It is recommended that the host not make an enemy of her for now.]
Jiang Che's mouth twitched. No wonder she's so damn impressive, she's actually a Six Tribulation Immortal Emperor?
"Wait, a Six Tribulation Immortal Emperor is only a Pavilion Master in the Destiny Bearer Association? Is the Destiny Bearer Association that incredible?" Jiang Che narrowed his eyes. If that were true... wouldn't the Destiny Bearer Association have at least nine Six Tribulation Immortal Emperors?
"System, step up your game, will you? Immortal Emperor isn't your limit, is it?"
[Hmph hmph hmph, host, are you scared now?]
Jiang Che: "???"
Why did he detect a hint of a bratty girl's tone in that damn system's voice?
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia
