Lu Changsheng and Yun Wanshang have been in the Demon Abyss for over a month, sealing Ghost Demons. Lu Changsheng uses the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror to purify the demon qi, while Qian Zhuyan refines a soul crystal. A Qilin phantom appears, noting Lu Changsheng's potential but low cultivation. After half a year, the Qilin offers Lu Changsheng and Yun Wanshang Qilin Essence Blood as they face stronger Fourth Rank Ghost Demons. Lu Changsheng fights fiercely, and after defeating several, he requests a rest. The Soul-calling Beast then spits out a Fourth Rank Ghost Demon soul crystal, which Lu Changsheng gives to Qian Zhuyan to refine.

Starry Sky Sea, Penglai Island, Goddess Palace.

Swirling clouds and mist enveloped the Goddess Hall, perched atop the mountain peaks. Inside, three Divine Maiden Palace Masters were convened.

However, their meeting wasn't for typical palace affairs; it was for the momentous occasion of childbirth.

Within the bedchamber, where Spiritual Energy danced and immortal mists lingered, twelve shark silk palace lamps cast a gentle radiance upon a bed crafted from Ten Thousand Years Cold Jade.

The Great Palace Master, Shen Jianjia, sat by the bedside, her gaze fixed on Shen Yiren with evident concern. Shen Yiren, clad in a serene sky-blue gauze dress, appeared pale and frail, her abdomen visibly distended.

Her usually dignified and elegant countenance had softened, devoid of its customary supreme authority, now replaced with tender affection and palpable distress.

Despite knowing that her sister's Cultivation Level should have obviated any mortal difficulties during childbirth, witnessing her sister's weakened, pained state caused Shen Jianjia immense heartache.

Her younger sister had never known such hardship since her childhood.

The nearby Five-Colored Spirit Deer echoed its masters' sentiments, letting out soft, mournful "yo-yo" cries. It enveloped Shen Yiren's jade-like form in a halo imbued with potent vitality.

"I insisted there was no need to consume so many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures for fetal nourishment," Shen Baishuang, the Second Palace Master, stated. Clad in a resplendent red dress resembling a blooming scarlet peony, she paced gracefully within the hall, exuding an air of mature elegance.

At their esteemed level, extravagance was never a concern when it came to their beloved sister's pregnancy and childbirth.

Much like Shen Jianjia, Shen Baishuang had not only bestowed several rare Spiritual Medicines from the Goddess Palace’s Treasure Vault upon Shen Yiren for fetal stability and nourishment but had also procured a [Heavenly Wood Fetus Spirit Pill] from the Dan Alliance at a significant cost.

Yet, every boon carried its own burden.

While these measures ensured a safe arrival for the child, winning its place within the womb, they undeniably placed a strain on the maternal womb.

After all, these potent Heavenly and Earthly Treasures required digestion and refinement by the mother before their spiritual essences could be transferred to the fetus.

"Ah——"

Another surge of intense pain seized Shen Yiren. She bit down on her tender lip with pearly teeth, her fair jade hand gripping her elder sister's tightly.

Shen Jianjia’s breathtakingly beautiful face suddenly tightened. "If you hadn't remained silent, I would have assumed you were mute! Hurry and activate the Xuanji Seven Luminaries Formation!" she chided her second sister.

Confronted by her elder sister, Shen Jianjia, Shen Baishuang dared not offer any retort.

Furthermore, her younger sister's current condition bore a partial responsibility on her own shoulders, leaving her with a sense of guilt.

A starry luminescence gathered at her fingertips as she gestured towards the twelve shark silk palace lamps adorning the bedchamber.

The seven-layered curtains surrounding the bed swayed gently, though no wind stirred. The outermost layer projected ethereal star-like shadows onto the palace walls, casting a faint glow upon Shen Yiren, allowing radiant starlight to cascade across her abdomen.

Following this, the second layer of the Yimu curtain shifted, emanating an emerald green brilliance. Beneath it, a towering spectral tree materialized, its branches dripping with Spiritual Dew that descended onto Shen Yiren.

To guarantee her sister's safe delivery and secure the future lineage of the Goddess Palace, Shen Jianjia, as the elder sister, had poured all her efforts into the task.

Having initially expended immense Magical Power to suppress the Fairy Tears for her two sisters, she then tirelessly attended to her younger sister, Shen Yiren. This left her with no time to cultivate Divine Skills or regain her diminished Cultivation Level.

As time slowly elapsed, a later moment arrived when Shen Yiren experienced another wave of excruciating pain. An azure-gold radiance began to emanate from her swollen abdomen.

Shen Jianjia promptly ignited the precious Star Sinking Sea Breath Fragrance nearby, its calming essence intended to soothe her younger sister.

"Wah!"

As the swirling Spiritual Energy receded back into Shen Yiren’s body, a sharp cry escaped her pale, bitten lips. The robust cry of an infant then echoed throughout the entire bedchamber.

"Born, born!"

Shen Baishuang's gaze fell upon the newborn – a delicate, jade-like infant with skin as translucent as crystal, exuding a faint magnetic force with every breath. Her brow furrowed slightly. "This Qi Mechanism… could it be… the Primordial Magnetic Body?"

While the Primordial Magnetic Body was classified as an Upper Class Spirit Body, placing it among the elite, its utility for cultivators at their level was limited.

For Nascent Soul True Lords like themselves, an Upper Class Spirit Body primarily offered assistance during the Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, and Core Formation stages. Its efficacy waned considerably once they broke through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Moreover, despite the formidable power of the Primordial Magnetic Body, its nature did not harmonize with the established legacy of the Goddess Palace.

The Goddess Palace lacks any supreme inheritance focused on the Primordial Magnetic Cultivation Technique.

As in the past, Elder Sister Shen Jianjia erected the Xuanji Seven Luminaries Formation, holding out hope that the newborn would manifest a Star Body.

Even a spiritual body with Water or Wood attributes would have been sufficient, if not entirely optimal.

"It should be the Primordial Magnetic Body."

Despite the Primordial Magnetic Power radiating from the infant vanishing the moment after birth, Shen Jianjia, a Nascent Soul True Lord, perceived it distinctly.

Undeterred, she softly declared, "The Primordial Magnetic Power grants unparalleled combat prowess among peers. For this child to possess the Primordial Magnetic Body is a blessing. In the future, I shall procure a fitting Primordial Magnetic Cultivation Technique for him."

As she spoke, her gaze, filled with tenderness, shifted to her sister, Shen Yiren, as she entrusted the baby to her.

Yet, at that precise instant, a subtle crimson stain caught her eye, nestled between the fingers of the infant's right hand, which was clenched into a tiny fist.

"What is this?"

Shen Baishuang, standing nearby, also noticed the speck of blood and moved to quickly pry open the baby's fist.

"Hold!"

Shen Jianjia swiftly intervened, a plum blossom insignia shimmering between her brows as her eyes radiated a starlit, azure brilliance.

"Elder Sister?"

Shen Yiren, her attention fixed on her son's delicate hand, looked towards her sister, bewildered.

"Fear not, this child is born with an Immortal Bone. It has not yet fully integrated, hence the blood, solidified at birth, remains clasped within his hand."

A captivating smile graced Shen Jianjia's usually dignified and elegant countenance.

Possessing merely the Primordial Magnetic Body would have categorized this child's talent as merely superior.

However, in addition to the Primordial Magnetic Body, the presence of solidified blood clasped within his hand at birth elevates his inherent talent not just incrementally, but to an extraordinary degree.
