My Longevity Simulation Chapter 1222: The Sun Family Welcomes the Fetus
Previously on My Longevity Simulation...
A brief silence fell over Sun Luyuan before he murmured softly: “Regarding that Holy Dynasty of Great Qi, I plan to make personal contact.”
“Hmm?” Sun Luyao showed clear surprise.
Sun Luyao understood that his elder brother had pondered making contact with the Holy Dynasty of Great Qi, yet earlier he had planned to dispatch loyal dead warriors ahead to test the waters.
“Why the sudden change of mind?”
“Times have changed.” Sun Luyuan's face grew grave. “Who knows how long that old thing Fu will stay in seclusion? I need to seize this precious window of freedom to secure arrangements for our brothers and the Sun family's future.”
Sun Luyuan's gaze grew icy and shadowed: “I felt some doubt earlier. But the seven-colored rainbow light that shot straight out of the realm shattered all my illusions. Within the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance, we'll always just be disposable tools. Should a massive catastrophe hit the Xuanhuang Realm one day, those Mirror Holders and Dharma-Transmitters will abandon us and escape alone.”
“Great Qi's circumstances stand apart. As the proverb states, no merit surpasses riding the dragon's ascent. By swearing loyalty before they rise to fame, we'll ascend as the Dharma-Transmitters of Great Qi once they triumph.”
“Of course, it hinges on the actual power of this Holy Dynasty of Great Qi.”
Sun Luyao gave a slight nod.
“However, this small world of Great Qi holds deep mysteries. Even the Tianxuan Mirror offers scant information on it. Brother, how do you intend to locate them precisely?”
Sun Luyuan flashed a enigmatic grin: “A friend performed divination for me. Though we couldn't pinpoint the precise spot, we uncovered the small world's gateway. We'll recognize it upon arrival.”
“Brother, might there be risks?” Sudden anxiety surged in Sun Luyao's chest.
Sun Luyuan brimmed with assurance: “Don't worry. With my power, even if Great Qi proves a dragon's pool or tiger's cave, I can withdraw without harm.”
After reassuring his younger sibling briefly, Sun Luyuan added: “By the way, there's great news too. Ninglu has advanced. She's reached late-stage Soul Transformation, just a single step from Dao Integration.”
“Her breakthrough stirred her vital energy into turmoil. That's when I sensed another thread of life aura concealed in her frame.”
“It seems she was already bearing Lu’er’s child, yet harbored secret intentions and kept suppressing its life force via a hidden method.” Sun Luyuan remarked with a wry smile.
Noticing his younger brother's odd look, Sun Luyuan stated firmly: “I've confirmed it thoroughly. It's pure Sun family blood without question. Regardless of Ninglu's background, as long as she produces heirs for our Sun family, all else fades in importance.”
“For now, I'll have Ninglu keep sealing the fetus's vitality in her belly. Only after attaining Dao Integration will we allow the birth.” Sun Luyuan noted abruptly.
“Lu’er possessed exceptional talent, and Ninglu's aptitude suffices as well. Their child will surely shine brightest among the Sun family's youth.”
“When a cultivator absorbs the Spirit of Heaven and Earth, heavenly laws pour into the body. Should the fetus within the womb experience this too…”
A spark of thrill laced Sun Luyuan’s voice: “This child, upon birth, might rival any heaven’s prodigy from the Immortal Alliance in talent. At last, our Sun family gains a genuine heir.”
“Above all, we now possess the means to secure a Spirit of Heaven and Earth for him.”
Discussing the Sun family's prospects always unleashed a torrent of words from Sun Luyuan.
Sun Luyao, his younger brother, seldom stayed so hushed, listening with a faint smile.
“Such a heartwarming display of brotherly bonds.” Only after Sun Luyuan departed did the enigmatic shadow elder's eerie, chuckling voice jolt him alert.
Sun Luyao then recalled the numerous betrayals he had committed against his elder brother.
“Your Sun family’s little treasure… proves most intriguing.”
Li Fan’s clone’s remark sent Sun Luyao's heart pounding into his throat.
“Calm yourself. I'm not petty enough to desire a babe's form.” Li Fan sneered.
“I possess the Creation Furnace Technique, which endlessly unlocks the body's latent potential. Crucially, it requires no cultivation base—even a fetus in the womb can cultivate it. There's also the Limitless Fullness and Emptiness Method, which bolsters the divine soul via the five elements' cycles of generation and conquest…”
Just a handful of words from Li Fan’s clone profoundly rattled Sun Luyao’s soul.
Even though the Limitless Fullness and Emptiness Method demands five elements treasures to aid in cultivation, your Sun family's existing resources make securing them far from impossible.
Starting from the innate fetal phase, it allows nonstop refinement of both divine soul and fleshly body. Plus, it lets one draw on the mother's form to closely perceive the Xuanhuang Heavenly Dao. Tsk tsk… I'm getting a bit excited about the kind of freakish prodigy this infant will turn into after birth. Li Fan’s clone issued a sinister chuckle.
“Senior… what are the conditions?” Sun Luyao was obviously enticed too.
Yet he knew full well that nothing in this world comes without cost. In a grave tone, he inquired.
“Conditions?” To his surprise, Li Fan’s clone sneered coldly. “Does the Sun family of yours even have the standing to negotiate terms with me?”
“Your whole clan boasts just three Dao Integration experts, and I could eradicate you all with a mere snap.”
Sun Luyao went quiet.
“It's nothing but a sudden fancy, just an experiment on a whim.” Li Fan’s clone remarked in an indifferent, aloof manner.
Li Fan spoke the truth.
Actually, he grasped the fetus's state inside Wu Ninglu’s belly more thoroughly than the Sun siblings did.
Earlier, to watch the seven-colored rainbow light departing the Xuanhuang Realm, his split soul had hijacked Wu Ninglu’s body to slip away and craft some puppets.
While occupying her, Li Fan noticed the fetus vaguely detecting him.
It reflexively emitted bursts of “expulsion” intent at him.
This sparked Li Fan’s curiosity.
A hunch told him that should this fetus emerge safely, its eventual accomplishments would be extraordinary.
Normally, the fetus had endured prolonged sealing and suppression from its mother, rendering proper survival extremely tough.
Should it manage a fragile birth, congenital weaknesses would doom it.
Cultivation would be out of the question.
However, Li Fan’s involvement in this reincarnation would grant the fetus a completely transformed fate.
As Li Fan’s clone served as prenatal instructor, Sun Luyuan had located the entry to the Great Qi small world.
The formation-breaking disc he gripped blinked repeatedly while he worked to analyze the array's weaknesses nearby.
This was a specialized formation-breaking artifact borrowed from Ji Hongdao. Though nowhere near as potent as Ji Hongdao himself arriving, it ought to handle standard defensive arrays without issue.
To his shock, the formation-breaking disc acted faulty, merely flickering endlessly with no outcomes.
“That shouldn’t be the case?”
Sun Luyuan grew a tad baffled.
He clutched the formation-breaking disc and shifted spots.
“Why not simply declare your arrival outright? The Holy Dynasty of Great Qi never rejects visitors.”
Right as Sun Luyuan continued his search, a voice abruptly echoed in his ear.
Sun Luyuan’s heart pounded fiercely. He swiftly stowed the formation-breaking disc and scanned vigilantly toward the voice's source.
There stood a fairly good-looking youth, arms folded, gazing at him with a mocking grin.
“This little friend, might I inquire…?”
Despite the opponent merely showing Nascent Soul aura, the subtle malevolent vibe slipping out made Sun Luyuan unwilling to take him lightly.
