Chapter 305 Pregnant with a Nascent Soul
Li Wushou's golden core has always been solid and very firm after it has manifested!

But at this moment, as the peristalsis continues, it seems as if a hollow cavity is forming inside.

This cavity exists between reality and illusion, resembling a Dharma realm, but Li Wushou could not sense the power of that realm.

The entire cavity suddenly appeared in the Golden Core in a way that even Li Wushou couldn't understand.

A large, blood-red tendon connects the cavity to the golden core.

The energy within the golden elixir is interacting with the cavity through this large tendon.

Just then, as more incense was burned, the divine soul sitting cross-legged on the head of the Eternal Mother suddenly emitted a dazzling golden light, and then returned to the Golden Core with lightning speed.

Li Wushou's mind stirred, and he tried to forcefully suppress it, but he felt an instinctive desire arising from the Golden Core.

After thinking for a moment, Li Wushou abandoned the idea of ​​intervention. Although he was not clear about the current situation, he decided to let the Golden Core develop on its own.

The suppression of the soul was released, and the soul fell directly into the cavity of the golden core.

In an instant, his soul dissolved, but Li Wushou did not feel any change in the amount of his soul, so he was not in a hurry.

The next instant, a surge of sound echoed in Li Wushou's mind.

The dissolving soul transformed into a golden tide, swirling within the cavity. In the blink of an eye, the once empty and void cavity was filled with golden soul liquid.

The more Li Wushou looked at it, the stranger it seemed. He had a vague feeling that he had seen this scene somewhere before.

Then, the corners of my mouth started twitching involuntarily. Could it really be that?

After the soul returned, the golden elixir trembled even more violently, and suddenly flew out from the top of Li Wushou's head, once again sitting cross-legged on the top of the head of the Eternal Mother.

Then Li Wushou heard the divine soul chant "Food is Heaven" again.

A new round of suffering has begun for the Eternal Mother!

But Li Wushou had no time to observe the state of the Eternal Mother, as he was focused on observing the cavity that had suddenly appeared within his golden core.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but all Li Wushou knew was that the wailing of the Eternal Mother in his mind had become inaudible.

Inside the Golden Core, at the very front of the end of the blood-red tendon connecting the cavity and the Golden Core, a golden dot the size of a soybean suddenly appeared.

After the golden dot appeared, it quickly grew larger until it was the size of a green bean, and then slowly stopped. Li Wushou could sense a strong heartbeat within it.

The heartbeat of the soul, which had originally been integrated with the heartbeat of the body, became intense again.

Li Wushou examined the new change, his expression shifting slightly. It really was this!

No wonder this scene looked so familiar; he had actually just seen it before, when the nine daughters of the Deng family gave birth to nine strange infants in the paper house.

This so-called cavity is actually equivalent to the uterus of the nine women.

The liquid after the soul dissolves is actually amniotic fluid, the blood-red tendons are the umbilical cord, and the golden bean that grows into the size of a string bean should be the embryo.

Normally, other people's nascent souls are born in the form of a child or a teenager, but there are some special cases like the founders of the two floating lineages.

But I've never heard of anything that starts from an embryonic stage.
what is this?
She's pregnant with a Nascent Soul?

Li Wushou remained silent for a long time after witnessing this scene, feeling a sense of absurdity about a man carrying a child.

With a thought, he retrieved the golden elixir back into his body.

Luckily, the old beggar and Chen Gou'er were fast asleep; if they had seen this, they would probably have laughed their heads off.

Scratching his head, Li Wushou was also somewhat confused about his emotions.

The good news is that my approach should be fine; by using food as a means of offering incense, I can indeed enhance my spirit.

Moreover, Li Wushou did not sense any signs of being corrupted or eroded by the power of incense.

This is completely different from the perception he had when he controlled the pool and cultivated his mind.

When Chi Xiu was cultivating with the help of incense in Wufang City, he had also controlled Chi Xiu's mind and sensed the state of the divine path when cultivating with incense.

Chi Xiu was extremely careful when consuming incense offerings for cultivation. His mind was filled with various prayers, which made people feel restless and agitated. Once his mind was lost, he would be subjected to the transformation of his Yin spirit!

But Li Wushou didn't feel that way. On the one hand, he felt it was the protection of the ancestral tablets, and on the other hand, he felt it was because Shiweitian had removed the dregs from the incense offerings.

So overall, Li Wushou was quite pleased with the result.

The bad news is that, judging from the current situation, this Nascent Soul will have to be generated by itself later. Even if it's not through his own efforts, but through the Golden Core, it still makes Li Wushou feel a bit strange.

After pondering for a while, Li Wushou cursed inwardly, "Never mind!"
Isn't it similar to other people's shattering of the core to form an infant spirit? It's just that they weren't as meticulously prepared as him.

That's because they're incompetent!
After examining the embryo of the nascent soul inside the cavity, Li Wushou began to understand.

He guessed that the reason for this was most likely because this soul was formed by him forcibly seizing the Abdominal God and fusing with it.

In essence, it is not truly his own, as can be seen from the fact that his soul cannot consume the incense offerings of the Three Immortals Restaurant.

Therefore, the nascent soul reborn in this way is very likely to truly belong to oneself. Even if it belongs to only a little, it is still a connection to oneself.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to trigger the movement of his own memorial tablet!

Li Wushou quietly sensed the state of his soul. Although the soul image he had painstakingly solidified had become an embryo overnight.

However, instead of retreating, his spiritual senses advanced, and his perception range increased from twenty miles to twenty-five miles.

If a single first-level Heavenly God can make such great progress in one's spiritual soul, what would happen if there were ten or a hundred?
Li Wushou examined the state of the nascent soul embryo, carefully calculating that if he wanted to successfully nurture this nascent soul, he would most likely need five or six more celestial beings like the Eternal Mother.

This made Li Wushou both delighted and a little nauseous!

Gods aren't easy to find; you can't expect them all to drain Chi Xiu's life force, can you? Even if Chi Xiu drains the other person dry, it still won't be enough.

It seems I really need to find the old beggar and learn more about the hunting of the gods.

This is the most important thing to do next!

After much contemplation, Li Wushou finally prepared himself mentally and convinced himself to accept the fact that he was carrying a Nascent Soul within his Golden Core.

He then began to refocus his attention on the Eternal Mother.

Inside the clay sculpture, the Eternal Mother was already on her deathbed.

Incense offerings are to the divine as spiritual power to immortal cultivators. At this moment, nearly 80% of the incense offerings of the Eternal Mother have been extracted. The remaining 20% ​​is not impossible to extract, but if any more is extracted, the recipient will die.

After realizing that using incense to refine the soul was indeed effective, Li Wushou decided to keep the Eternal Mother, as it would be good to have another deity to help collect incense.

Moreover, the activity area of ​​the Venerable Shou's lineage is in the Fubo Domain, where a star of destiny hangs high, observing all directions, allowing Li Wushou to gather more intelligence and information.

With a casual wave of his hand, he retrieved the clay sculpture of the Eternal Mother from the Three Immortals Hall and placed it alongside the newly carved tablet of the Venerable Eater by the old beggar under the incense table.

He planned to wait until the old beggar woke up, then have him replace the inner deity of the Eternal Mother. After he had the beggar under control, he would release him to the Returning Star to help him gather information and collect offerings!
By the time all this was done, it was already dawn. The incense offering and ritual had unknowingly taken up most of the night.

The talisman master and Master Xuan Yang were already standing guard outside the courtyard of the side room.

Biluo Zhenjun stood respectfully behind the two, his aura barely visible, his face docile.

Upon closer inspection, nine invisible black lines were embedded in her body. These nine black lines corresponded to the nine Yin Apertures of the Azure Heaven True Lord, with the other end connected to the black cloak of the Talisman Master.

This shows that Lord Biluo is already under the control of the talisman master.

Within the other party's yin orifice, a large yang was floating.

The great sun radiated warmth, nourishing the Yin Aperture of True Lord Biluo; this was clearly the work of Venerable Xuanyang.

As expected, the Way of Tai Chi can alleviate the other party's symptoms. However, Master Xuan Yang was not trying to cure him. His Yang energy had only been channeled into a breath and had not reached the state of self-generated Yang energy. Therefore, it was still being consumed by the Yin orifices at all times.

Over time, once the intense heat dissipates, the backlash could become even more severe!

However, Li Wushou was too lazy to care. The other party was already under the control of the talisman master. Once he left Chaohai City, whether the other party lived or died was none of his business.

The reason he didn't kill the other party was that he didn't want to attract the attention of a Nascent Soul cultivator; he didn't want to cause a major disturbance in the Fubo Domain for the time being.

More importantly, he had previously examined the Nascent Soul of True Monarch Biluo.

It probably won't taste good!
Right in the center of the Nine Yin Aperture, between the breasts of the Azure Heaven True Lord, lay a dark blue-green infant, which looked like a dead baby. This was the opponent's nascent soul, which the Deng family called the Nine Netherworld Infant.

Because of this Nine Nether Infant, although the Azure Sky True Monarch appears quite normal on the outside, her upper body has long been withered and decayed, turning bluish-gray, like a corpse.

Li Wushou really couldn't muster any interest.

Pushing open the door to the side room and walking into the courtyard, the talisman master and Xuan Yang Shangren hurriedly bowed, and Biluo Zhenjun dared not be negligent.

Last night, when she was suppressed under the Taiji Dojo by Master Xuanyang, she also saw the scene of Li Wushou finally descending and instructing the talisman master and Master Xuanyang.

The opponent must either be incredibly powerful or have an extraordinary background; otherwise, how could they have made two True Monarchs who were about to become gods submit?

Not to mention that her life and death are now in the other party's hands!
Li Wushou nodded to the talisman master and Xuan Yang Shangren, then stepped outside. He was going to Chaohai City to take the airship to Zhenhai City.

Just then, the talisman master stepped forward and took out a token from his hand. The token was completely black and engraved with intricate inscriptions, with the character "Deng" engraved on the back.

"Your Excellency, this is the decree from the Deng family. You may ride the Deng family's airship for free."

"Oh~?"

I glanced at Magistrate Deng in surprise. Magistrate Ji only got a 50% discount when he went to the Seven Star Chamber of Commerce, but Magistrate Deng could ride the Flying Boat for free?

Great, I like it!

Li Wushou gave the talisman master an appreciative look and accepted him.

Master Xuan Yang, who was standing to the side, was stunned for a moment, then almost ground his teeth to powder.

He finally understood that regardless of their abilities, those with privileged backgrounds must learn how to navigate social interactions!
