This cat, enjoying itself while shouting:
"So this is what they call 'creating humans', good husband, good aunt, quickly proceed, Yunrong wants to see, I want to see."
"Right now the bad child in my belly is causing a great disturbance, she indeed gained great benefits, but the evil poison is severe too. If we don't find a way to clear it, she will undoubtedly become a World-Disrupting Great Demon after birth. In the future, just one misstep and not only will I, as the mother, be implicated, but your accumulated merits and fortune as the father will also be wiped clean, perhaps even ending up in debt."
"You can't possibly choose righteousness over kinship when she's just born, can you? Quick, quick, quick."
The cat's words carry a serious tone, only to satisfy its curiosity, to peek at the novelty and excitement.
As for the matter of the fetus, even if Tao Qian has no means, the couple could still beg the Spirit Treasure Sect Master, or Grandma Taizhen. They could even continue to seek higher help; surely there's no need to truly choose righteousness over kinship.
The reason they don't ask for help, is naturally because it's unreasonable to seek help for every little thing under the sky.
Tao Qian is already a Perfect Ultimate Happiness Great Master; could it be he cannot solve the matters of his own bloodline offspring?
Tao Qian could never refuse Yunrong's coquettishness; Master Xiao, after being nudged by her, had to acquiesce.
Fortunately, it was nothing much, just refining a treasure, albeit with a peculiar posture.
...
Spiritual Resonance Cave Mansion, Star Aperture Secret Realm.
In the Crystal Marrow channel, the spiritual resonance appearing sacred yet eerie, Spirit Marrow Lady was holding Yunrong while listening to the pregnant cat's complaints:
"Good Lady, your human clan body transformation looks excellent, but it's a pity that the true essence is still a Spirit Marrow Secret Crystal, hard and stiff, truly not as comfortable as Aunt Meiniang's embrace."
"You're not a blood and flesh race, and my Taizhen Miao Method doesn't arouse you, truly a pity."
These words entered her ears, instantly making Spirit Marrow Lady's three tear moles around her eyes turn slightly red. She thought to herself that this couple truly lives up to being one family, one loved to mutter complaints inwardly, the other loved to speak them aloud.
While Yunrong was teasing Spirit Marrow Lady, inside Star Aperture, Tao Qian and Master Xiao had already assumed refining treasure positions.
Looking closely, both stood facing each other.
Both assumed abnormal postures, yet upon closer examination, they were quite complementary.
Clearly two bodies, yet they could be seen as one.
The complex forces of Yin and Yang seemingly melded together.
Even before they acted, changes had already subtly begun in the space between them, a "thump thump" akin to a heartbeat sound emerged, as if new life was brewing, full of vitality, capturing attention.
Master Xiao had already explained: this method has a name, called "Great Innate Yin-Yang Nascent Soul Miraculous Skill", exclusive to the Infant Sect's skill, capable of nurturing a Nascent Soul from nothing. Although not of human clan lineage, it has limitless marvelous uses. Many true practitioners in the Cultivation World who couldn't conceive children have relied on this Infant Sect's skill to have their descendants.
But Xiao Meiniang evidently never imagined she would cooperate with her junior nephew Tao Qian to perform this skill.
Truthfully, it was her first time as well.
When she conveyed her thoughts with spiritual communication, and the two formally began casting, unforeseeable changes unfolded continuously to Xiao Meiniang's surprise.
First, they fetched treasures, each having an item float out from their bosoms.
She took out 'Infant Mother's Supreme Source Qi', while Tao Qian revealed the People Species Bag.
As soon as both appeared, they seemed to have a connection, simultaneously bursting into divine light to reveal their true form.
The initially concealing People Species Bag suddenly transformed into a flesh and blood sac large enough to cover the sky and collect the firmament, in a flat pear shape, but unlike its initial appearance, devoid of any evil aura, instead filled with an incredibly warm holy maternal presence.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Source Qi, resembling an elixir, instantly shattered Forbidden Technique Mystical Ice, releasing a pink radiant light. It needed no prompting from Master Xiao using the Infant Sect's Marvelous Skill, actively transforming into a "Pink Star", colliding into the bag.
Upon merging, vigorous vitality emerged from the bag, unmistakable to anyone.
At the same time, Tao Qian and Master Xiao both felt a massive depletion of essence within them, including mana, blood energy, vitality, and even their divine souls all being absorbed by... no, not by the People Species Bag, but by some existence beginning to gestate inside the bag.
Both Tao Qian and Xiao Meiniang could have stopped, interrupted this inexplicable change.
Yet they both knew, it wasn't a bad thing, rather a creation of providence.
Tao Qian saw the newly emerging Record.
And Xiao Meiniang relied on her own infant mother intuition.
Benefitting from this great nourishment, the originally flat meat bag quickly swelled, then became round.
The pinkish membranous flesh gradually became crystalline and transparent, revealing the scene inside:
Initially only a lump of meat resembling a blood clot, gradually it started to grow, limbs formed, the torso developed, then eyebrows and eyes appeared, swiftly growing into a human.
However, this human looked like a shriveled, wrinkled and ugly dwarf with sallow skin.
Soon, with the surging vitality, the dwarf transformed into a maimed person.
Seeing this, Tao Qian already had an epiphany: "Dwarf Slave and Maimed Slave; the next should be Labor Slave, Horn Slave, Feather Slave, etc. These are the creation sequences of Lingmu Primordial Embryo Bag, all flawed, incapable of reproducing people. Yet the previous changes clearly indicated signs of filling the gaps. This Primordial Embryo Bag, People Species Bag, seem incredibly harmonious with the Infant Mother Source Qi. Could it be that this time the deficiencies will finally be completed along with the Infant Mother's Source Qi blessing?"
Upon reflection, he understood that Lingmu Holy Embryo Bag was essentially a Holy Embryo Bag, merely evolved to a higher state.
However, this time, something extraordinary was happening, as wherever those merged qi intersected, it seemed like new cosmic life was coming into being.
Suddenly, sparks of light, similar to the heartbeat, began to emerge in the center of the convergence, as if a nascent life was gestating, vibrant and attention-grabbing.
Master Xiao had already explained: "This technique is famous, known as the 'Great Innate Yin-Yang Nascent Soul Miraculous Skill', exclusive to the Infant Sect. It allows the spontaneous creation of a Nascent Soul, which, although not the true offspring of the Human Clan, has limitless wondrous uses. Many True Practitioners in the cultivation world who couldn't conceive children have used this skill from the Infant Sect to have offspring."
First, treasure retrieval, one item floated from each of their chests.
She took out the 'Infant Mother's Supreme Source Qi', Tao Qian's side produced the People Species Bag.
The two had just emerged when they seemed to resonate, immediately bursting with divine light to reveal their true forms.
The once obscure People Species Bag suddenly transformed into an enormous blood and flesh bag, large enough to cover the sky, shaped like a flattened pear, but unlike its initial state, absent of any evil aura, brimming instead with overwhelming vitality.
Simultaneously, the two hosted a burgeoning life within the bag.
They felt its organic throb, as if a new life was stirring, vibrant and compelling attention.
Master Xiao had explained before: This method, known as the "Great Innate Yin-Yang Nascent Soul Miraculous Skill", was a unique Infant Sect's magic skill, capable of spontaneously generating a Nascent Soul. Although not a blood descendent of the Human Clan, it had infinite marvelous uses, and many True Practitioners in the Cultivation World, unable to bear children, had once obtained descendants through this Infant Sect's skill.
However, it's clear that Xiao Meiniang never expected to employ this technique in tandem with her junior nephew Tao Qian.
Honestly speaking, this was her first time too.
When she transmitted her mind to him and they officially began casting, unexpected changes occurred one after another, to Xiao Meiniang's surprise.
First, the treasures were taken out, an item emerged floating from each of their bosoms.
She produced the 'Infant Mother's Supreme Source Qi'; from Tao Qian came the People Species Bag.
Both appeared and seemed to sense each other, bursting forth divine light to reveal their true forms simultaneously.
The previously hidden People Species Bag abruptly transformed into a flattened pear-shaped blood and flesh bag large enough to cover the sky, yet compared to its initial state, it had no trace of evil qi. On the contrary, it brimmed with an overwhelming vigor.
At the same moment, some unknown existence began to gestate inside the bag.
The process happened once, twice, three times... tens of thousands of times, although it was not concerning the People Species Bag, but somehow it perfectly blended with the Infant Mother Source Qi, transforming in the process.
The corolla of the Earth Bursting Golden Lotus appeared alongside the divine light and infant spirits dancing in joy.
The mouth of the bag split open, and a round object was born from within.
Even though Lady Marrow was merely an observer, she could feel the flow of life force becoming more vibrant, while she and Yunrong could only watch.
At this moment, Tao Qian, scrutinizing it intently, seemed hesitant, called out both as a question and an acknowledgment:
"Lady Marrow, indeed your human clan body transformation is quite beautiful, but it is unfortunate that your true nature is still the Spirit Marrow Secret Crystal, hard and cold, not as comfortable as being in Lady Meiniang Aunt's arms."
Sensing this, Spirit Marrow Lady's three teardrop-shaped birthmarks under her eyes became slightly flushed, silently remarking that this couple is truly in harmony, one loves to criticize inside while the other likes to do it in plain view.
