Chapter 702: Chapter 362: No One Has Reached Divinity Transformation in Five Hundred Years—So That’s Why
"Husband, it’s not even three months yet, how can you hear anything?"
In the room, Qiu Zhihe caressed Qin Gengyun’s head, speaking with amusement.
Qin Gengyun still had his ear pressed against his wife’s flat abdomen, looking hopeful:
"What if our child has extraordinary talent and can speak even as an embryo?"
Qiu Zhihe playfully slapped him gently, "Nonsense!"
Qin Gengyun stood up and tenderly embraced Qiu Zhihe, "Wife, now that you are pregnant, should you stop fighting?"
Qiu Zhihe rolled her eyes at him, "Do you know why I didn’t tell you? Because I was afraid you’d worry blindly like this!"
"Before coming back today, Su Hongling came looking for a fight, and I chased her away."
"I can handle a Half-Step Divinity Transformation, just killing a few Nascent Souls won’t affect the child."
"Moreover....."
Qiu Zhihe gently caressed her abdomen, her voice extremely soft:
"I already set up several small Guardian Arrays around the child. Even if I die, he can be born safely."
Qin Gengyun immediately covered her mouth, "Don’t talk nonsense!"
Qiu Zhihe was stunned, her beautiful eyes shimmering with tenderness, "I know, I misspoke. I will safely give birth to Yun’Er and always be by your side with Yun’Er."
Qin Gengyun kissed her forehead and asked, "Yun’Er?"
Qiu Zhihe nodded, "We met in Yunling Town, so the child’s nickname will be Yun’Er, suitable for both genders. As for the formal name, husband, you can name the child once born. What do you think?"
"Yun’Er... good!"
Qin Gengyun embraced Qiu Zhihe, his face full of adoration, both for his wife and the child.
Qiu Zhihe suddenly asked, "Husband, are you this gentle to me because I’m pregnant?"
Qin Gengyun chuckled, "Wife, are you jealous of your own child?"
Qiu Zhihe huffed, "Qin Gengyun, you must promise me; no matter what, you have to put me first!"
Qin Gengyun smiled, "Then where in your heart do you place the child?"
Qiu Zhihe curled her lips and proudly said, "In my heart, you and the child are naturally equally important, but in your heart, I must be the first!"
"Okay, okay, wife will always be first!"
Qin Gengyun stroked Qiu Zhihe’s head, as if coaxing a child.
It’s said that when a woman is pregnant, her nature becomes more childish and naive. Now, it seems even the cold and powerful wife is like this.
"Wife, let me hold you to sleep tonight."
"Mm."
Qin Gengyun carefully lifted Qiu Zhihe and gently laid her on the bed.
He undressed her, covered her with a blanket, then took off his own robe and got into the bed, gently embracing her warm and tender body.
"Husband, do you prefer a boy or a girl?"
"As long as it’s our child, I like them all."
"Hmm, smooth talker!"
"I like the child, but I like you even more, my wife."
"Husband... you are the most important person to me in this world. No matter what happens in the future, you must live on!"
...
"Is that all?"
Outside the room, in the image of the Mist Spirit Eye, Qin Gengyun and Qiu Zhihe were sleeping in bed, doing nothing but sleeping.
Liu Su and the Celestial Phoenix Maiden were pressed on top of Mo Xiaolan, both women and the bird with disheveled hair, staring stunned at the now still image.
Liu Su got off Mo Xiaolan, brushing her messy hair aside with both hands, "We watched all this time, and all they did was kiss? Trickery!"
"Gu!"
"Susu, quickly put away your Mist Spirit Eye, stop watching!"
"Alright, don’t move, I’ll put it away, I’ll put it away!"
Liu Su frustratedly put away the Mist Spirit Eye, patted her bottom, sat up, and her eyes lit up again:
"Huang, let’s go next door. Maybe Wei Wan and Xiaowu are more exciting!"
"Gu?! Gugugu!"
"Don’t go overboard, you two!"
...
Not far from the West Courtyard.
In the courtyard where each Peak Master of the Zhenyang Sect resides.
In the room of Chun Ningzhi, Master of Forgetful Peak.
Slap! Slap!
Lin Qingchou wielded a whip, lashing Chun Ningzhi kneeling before her.
On Chun Ningzhi’s face was a look of obsession, "Junior Sister Lin, you are so beautiful!"
Lin Qingchou sneered, "Senior Brother Chun, back then when I begged you, you didn’t even look me in the eye. If I knew, I would have fed you the pill earlier."
"Junior Sister Lin, I was blind before. From now on, I’ll only listen to you!"
Chun Ningzhi was completely subdued by the effect of the Seven Extremes Celestial Emotion Pill, his eyes now seeing only Lin Qingchou.
In Lin Qingchou’s eyes appeared a madness, which quickly turned to fear, as she remembered the Saintess’s instructions to her. She bent down, lifting Chun Ningzhi’s chin:
"Listen carefully, at tomorrow’s Immortal Ascension Ceremony, you have to help He Zhiqiu clear the path, understand?"
"He Zhiqiu?"
Upon hearing the name of this "former rival," a vicious gleam flashed in Chun Ningzhi’s chaotic eyes, followed by another lash from Lin Qingchou, making him yowl:
"Yes, understood, I will do as Junior Sister Lin wishes!"
At this moment, a mighty aura swept in, as if someone was having a Realm Breakthrough.
Moreover, breaking through the Nascent Soul Realm into Divinity Transformation!
Immediately after, another vast and ancient presence descended, like a deity overlooking the world!
The aura of the earlier breakthrough instantly vanished, seemingly lingering in Divinity Transformation for just a moment before returning to Nascent Soul.
And the majestic, heaven-gazing aura seemed to lose its target and soon disappeared.
All of this happened extremely fast, in just an instant, but close to Lin Qingchou and Chun Ningzhi, leaving them both collapsed on the ground, soaked in sweat, and looking around in terror:
"What just happened?!"
Next room.
Jian Yue sat cross-legged on the ground, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, her face pale with shock, but then she smiled:
"Hehe, no wonder Xia Qinglian said there is something strange above Divinity Transformation. Just now, as soon as I stepped into Divinity Transformation, I was targeted!"
"Ye Xiyue, looks like we need more time before we can truly separate."
Ever since Qiu Zhihe handed "Soul Separation Body Technique" to Jian Yue, she had been practicing day and night, having reached the Sixth Layer by now, ready to step into the Seventh Layer any time.
The "Soul Separation Body Technique" has nine layers, reaching the Seventh Layer allows the cultivation of a new body.
At the Ninth Layer, one can transform into multiple bodies.
Just now, Jian Yue attempted to break through to the Seventh Layer, about to create a new body, and her cultivation also moved past Nascent Soul into Divinity Transformation.
However, upon entering the Divinity Transformation Realm, Jian Yue felt herself seemingly targeted by something terrifying.
If she lingered just a moment longer, she would have been devoured by this mysterious, dreadful thing.
She hurriedly exited Divinity Transformation, returning to Nascent Soul.
Only then did that vast, intimidating presence disappear.
Jian Yue wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, a cold smile appearing on her face:
"No one has entered Divinity Transformation in five hundred years; now I see why."
