Everyone turned to look at Huang Ling'er, filled with curiosity.
Huang Ling'er looked at Hu Shuang and smiled:
"Sister-in-law Hu Shuang is pregnant! She's already three months along!"
boom!
This news was like a thunderclap, making the already lively gathering even more enthusiastic.
"I'm going to be a dad! Haha... I'm going to be a dad!"
Qiongqi jumped up excitedly, walked to Hu Shuang's side, picked her up, and gave her a big kiss.
Hu Shuang gave Qiongqi a shy glare, "Stop fooling around, there are so many people here!"
"Hehe~" He placed Hu Shuang on his lap, showing great concern:
"Shuang'er, you're pregnant, so don't drink alcohol. From now on, stay at home and don't do anything. Leave all the dirty work and chores to me."
Qiongqi was so excited that he almost wanted to dance with joy.
This clan is one of the Four Fiends. Their fearsome reputation led to their suppression by the Heavenly Dao. Due to their fierce fighting prowess, they also have great difficulty in having children.
A Qiongqi is born only once every hundreds of thousands of years.
Even worse, this race is only allowed to reproduce by the mercy of Heaven when it is on the verge of extinction.
How could Qiongqi, now in adulthood, not be happy to have offspring?
"Great news! This is a must-celebrate! Ah Bao, go get some fireworks!"
The Yellow Emperor said to Abao.
The Phoenix Immortal King, standing to the side, shook his head and smiled, "Does the Phoenix Clan even need fireworks?"
The next moment!
Countless phoenixes soared into the sky, unfurling their magnificent phoenix wings, turning the sky into a rainbow of colors, a thousand times more dazzling than fireworks.
Ling Yun and the others were also extremely excited; the child in Hu Shuang's belly would be the second generation of the team.
"Ling An, you'll have a friend from now on!"
Ling Yao hugged Ling An and rubbed his little head.
Ling An said with a grin:
"Hehe... Finally, I have a younger brother or sister to bully!"
The group exchanged smiles.
With Hu Shuang pregnant, the group could no longer travel to new destinations, as every journey carried unknown risks.
Although the journey wasn't exactly tumultuous, it was certainly thrilling and exciting.
Furthermore, every descendant of the Qiongqi clan is incredibly precious, and there can be no mishaps.
The group then settled down in the Phoenix Ancestral Land.
The Qiongqi tribe takes at least three years from conception to birth.
Ling Yun was looking forward to the offspring of Qiongqi, who was the strongest Qiongqi to break the shackles of bloodline, and Hu Shuang was a powerful white tiger that had reverted to its ancestral form.
Their descendants will become the strongest tigers in history.
From then on, Qiongqi stayed by Hu Shuang's side almost every day, counting down the child's birth date on his fingers.
Hu Shuang was speechless. The little Pixiu Ling An was even more excited than Qiongqi, jumping into Hu Shuang's arms every day and chatting with the unborn little Qiongqi in a very convincing way.
...
On this day, Ling Yun entered the world of the Ancient Immortal Bottle with the black crystal.
The ancient immortal bottle has awakened and restored its spiritual power; its spirit can conceal all heavenly secrets.
After entering the world of the Ancient Immortal Bottle, Ling Yun first glanced at the Empress Seed in the spiritual soil.
The seeds have now taken root and sprouted, and the peony itself is already a foot tall.
Ling Yun first took out the corpses of several black dragons and the Fallen Demon Phoenix Immortal King from the Heaven Refining Furnace and buried them in the spiritual soil as nourishment for the peony.
Then he placed the black crystal on the ground.
The moment the black crystal appeared, the peony seedling trembled violently, as if it were enraged.
Seeing this scene, Ling Yun's guess was instantly confirmed: the Flower Goddess Empress was killed by that being back then.
Even though the peony seedling didn't have the Empress's memories, it still had an instinctive reaction, its overwhelming rage mixed with deep fear.
The fact that it could instill fear in the peerless and unparalleled Flower Goddess Empress speaks volumes about the power of that being.
After a pause, Ling Yun looked at the black crystal. He had a sudden thought earlier: the patterns inside the black crystal were the reason why Haotian Demon God had become completely demonized.
Once the original body is removed, the black crystal will become a powerful energy crystal without any hidden dangers.
Immediately, Ling Yun entered the black crystal and manifested the white light containing power within the ancient immortal bottle into a carving knife, beginning to peel away the patterns.
This process was incredibly difficult and complex, and the patterns had become firmly bonded to the crystal.
If Ling Yun hadn't also been a medical sage, there really wouldn't have been a way to handle it.
It took Lingyun a full year to process the one-foot square black crystal.
The stripped-off patterns were pulverized by the spirit of the ancient immortal bottle.
She also loathed that creature.
At this moment, the light emitted by the black crystal was no longer eerie, and Ling Yun tentatively withdrew the white light from it.
In an instant, a surge of immense energy erupted, and for a moment Lingyun seemed to possess the power to create the world.
Its power was so immense that even Ling Yun nearly burst his body.
The stronger the energy, the more it proves the power of that being.
So powerful that even Ling Yun, who feared no opponent in the world, felt a deep sense of dread and powerlessness.
After calming himself down, Ling Yun divided the black crystal into four large pieces and dozens of smaller pieces.
This energy is so astonishing that currently only Lingyun, Qiongqi, Dasheng, and Huangdi can control it.
Even Hu Shuang, Huang Ling'er, Ling Yao, Yan Ruyu, and Ling An, who were all at the Great Emperor level, were unable to control it.
After doing all this, Ling Yun went to Qiongqi's dojo and invited the Great Sage and the Yellow Emperor over.
He took out four large black crystals and gave them to them.
"This thing is usable now?"
Qiongqi exclaimed in surprise.
Ling Yun smiled and nodded, "It's usable now. I've completely stripped away the creature's markings, and now the black crystal is an energy stone."
"No wonder there's not a trace of evil about it."
As Qiongqi spoke, it swallowed the black crystal.
boom!
The moment the black crystal was swallowed, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted.
At this moment, Qiongqi's aura was extremely terrifying, like an unparalleled god who looked down upon the heavens and suppressed countless heroes throughout the ages.
In an instant, Lingyun, the Great Sage, and the Yellow Emperor all looked up at Qiongqi, feeling an unparalleled sense of oppression.
Qiongqi is still a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, but his strength is already at the pinnacle among Quasi-Immortal Emperors, enough to contend with Quasi-Immortal Emperors of the same level from the Shiyuan Clan, and even kill Quasi-Immortal Emperors from the Shiyuan Clan.
"I feel very strong right now! I can punch the Black Dragon Immortal Emperor and kick the Kunpeng Ancestor."
Ling Yun laughed:
"Get rid of the feeling!"
Seeing how strong the black crystal was, the Great Sage and the Yellow Emperor couldn't wait to swallow it.
boom!
boom!
Two extremely domineering auras shook the Phoenix Ancestral Land, startling countless phoenixes into the sky to see what was happening.
At this moment, the Great Sage and the Yellow Emperor's auras were more than ten times stronger than before, and they could also fight against the Immortal King of the Primordial Clan.
"Haha... I really want to find someone to fight right now!"
"Me too!"
The Great Sage and the Yellow Emperor spoke.
Ling Yun did not swallow the black crystal. Instead, he teleported it to the Misty Immortal Sect so that his main body could study it.
Because the energy was so immense, even Qiongqi, the Great Sage, the Yellow Emperor, and the Phoenix Immortal King were unable to refine all of it.
If the energy cannot be refined in time, it will not only be wasted, but may also burst the body.
The four of them had no choice but to go to the starry sky every day to spar with each other and refine all the energy through battle.
They didn't fully refine all the energy until Hu Shuang was close to giving birth.
