Chapter 112: The Birth of the Second Child of Destiny Defiant Talent!

[Ding! Congratulations, your twenty-eighth child has been born. Commencing aptitude assessment!].

Fortune: Red. Aptitude: Top-tier. Talent: Steel Spirit Physique. Overall Evaluation: Grand Prodigy!

To be honest, Ye Wushang felt a bit disappointed upon seeing this.

Given his and Yue Rushuang’s exceptional talents, their child should have been, if not peerless, at least a supreme prodigy. Yet, this was the third time their child had merely reached the level of a grand prodigy. There had to be a reason.

Could it be. We’ve had too many children, and it’s affecting our bodies?

Indeed, they had been married for nearly twenty years. Their eldest daughter, Ye Zhixin, was already eighteen, an adult by his previous life’s standards.

Over the years, Yue Rushuang had borne him many children. Perhaps it’s time to exercise restraint in this area.

This child was a boy, with a silly, tiger-like expression. Yet Ye Wushang found him endearing. He named him Ye Fenghao.

Congratulations on birthing a grand prodigy! You’ve received feedback rewards: Cultivation +1 realm, Spirit Body Fragments ×9, Family Resources +10%, Rare Imperial-grade Movement Technique “Step to Infinity,” and 20 million Fortune Points!

Step to Infinity: A rare peak imperial-grade movement technique created by an ancient powerhouse. It integrates laws of speed, tracking, and wind. After millennia of refinement, it embodies earth-shattering velocity. When paired with martial techniques, it multiplies their power severalfold!

Ye Wushang was deeply moved. To obtain a rare peak imperial-grade movement technique this is extraordinary!

He recalled visiting Taoyao’s Destiny Pavilion, where even common imperial-grade techniques were worth dozens of times more than imperial-grade martial arts comparable to divine-grade techniques.

This one, however, surpassed even those. The creator of this technique must have been a mighty emperor-level existence.

After claiming the reward, a flood of insights surged into his mind. His cultivation, which had just broken through, soared again reaching the seventh realm of the King Stage.

Feeling more confident in his strength, Ye Wushang spent a few days with his newborn before discussing his thoughts with Yue Rushuang.

To his surprise, she agreed immediately.

“Dear husband, I was just about to bring this up. Lately, with each pregnancy, I’ve felt increasingly anxious and distracted. Even during cultivation, I can’t focus at all!”

I’ve been too careless. I haven’t cared for them enough.

Clearly, the frequent pregnancies had destabilized their foundations. Yet none of the women had ever mentioned it. They knew Ye Wushang loved children and feared he’d stop doting on them if they refused.

So, he made a firm decision: No more children for the next three years.

He then gathered rare spiritual herbs and brewed nourishing decoctions to restore their vitality. With his meticulous care, their foundations began to recover though full restoration would take time.

Once everything was settled, Ye Wushang returned to cultivation. With nearly 200 million Fortune Points, he was eager to see what breakthroughs awaited.

Enhancing his blade intent to the ninth layer required 90 million points, but he chose to focus on imperial-grade martial techniques and cultivation methods first.

These are what truly boost my combat power. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net

Time passed swiftly. In the Time Fortress, seven years flew by.

When Ye Wushang opened his eyes again, a terrifying aura erupted from his body, piercing the heavens.

His strength had increased a thousandfold, an overwhelming force that transcended eras. He now had the confidence to battle emperors and even slay ordinary ones.

He checked his status:

Ye Wushang: Starsea Realm, Seventh Layer.

Talents: Heavenly Blade Saint Physique, Dual Pupils, Xuanhuang Dao Physique, Eye of Destiny.

Bloodline: Kunpeng Bloodline.

Cultivation Method: Wrathfire Brahma Heaven Art (Layer 6)

Martial Techniques: All King-grade techniques perfected. Heaven-Breaking Divine Fist (Layer 6), Blade Severing Three Lives (Layer 6), God-Slaying Art (Layer 6)

Secret Arts: Blood Tribulation Technique, Ninefold Golden Body Art, Northern Cloud Devour Heaven Art (all perfected), Chaos-Reversing Golden Body (Layer 6), Step to Infinity (Layer 6)

Fortune Points: 3 million

All his King-grade techniques were perfected. His imperial-grade techniques, including movement and body-refining arts, had reached the sixth layer.

The cost? Nearly 200 million Fortune Points now reduced to just three million.

The consumption is terrifying.

Even ordinary Kings spend their lives mastering a single imperial-grade technique, using lesser techniques to supplement it. Reaching the sixth layer is already elite among peers.

Imperial-grade techniques are the strongest below the Longevity Realm. Even divine-level experts cultivate them. To train divine-grade techniques, one must possess a divine core something Ye Wushang lacked.

Yet he had pushed all his techniques to their limits during the King Stage.

Kings can reach layer six, Emperors layer eight, and only divine-level beings can achieve perfection.

This was the right decision. Blade intent alone couldn’t boost my power a thousandfold.

Upon exiting seclusion, his aura exploded again. After suppressing it with great effort.

Another terrifying aura surged skyward. Ye Wushang’s expression changed. Without hesitation, he activated a formation to contain the phenomenon within the Ye Family domain.

The source? Su Xiaoxiao’s courtyard.

Her due date I nearly forgot!

He rushed over. Celestial phenomena erupted, flowers rained from the sky, a sign of a child of destiny’s birth.

The Ye Family, experienced from past events, sat cross-legged to absorb the falling blessings. Soon, breakthroughs echoed throughout the estate.

Ancient phantom war elephants stampeded across the sky, shaking the heavens.

Seeing Ye Wushang arrive, Yue Rushuang and the others sighed in relief. They knew how painful it was to give birth without their beloved nearby.

Soon, someone informed Su Xiaoxiao of Ye Wushang’s arrival. Her voice grew spirited.

Finally, under countless awestruck gazes, a golden light descended into her room.

The baby’s cry was thunderous, echoing like divine thunder across the heavens.

Ye Wushang looked up, eyes clear. This child’s birth rivals even surpasses Ye Xinqing’s.

Then, the system’s voice rang out:

Congratulations, Host! Your twenty-ninth child has been born. Commencing aptitude assessment!

Fortune: Xuanhuang Grade. Aptitude: Defiant Grade. Talents: Descent of the Thunder God, Child of Thunder, God’s Right Hand. Overall Evaluation: Child of Destiny!

Descent of the Thunder God: In the ancient era, the gods fell during the Twilight of the Gods. After endless ages, a divine spark devoured the soul of the Thunder God and reincarnated into Su Xiaoxiao’s womb. Upon adulthood, the child will awaken the Thunder God’s memories.

Child of Thunder: Born to command all thunder laws. Master of all thunder techniques.

Immune to all thunder-based martial arts—even without cultivation, can bathe in tribulation lightning!

Just these two talents left Ye Wushang speechless.

A true Child of Destiny terrifyingly gifted.

Once the Thunder God’s memories awaken, he’ll be unstoppable. And with innate thunder immunity, he’s clearly destined to inherit the Thunder God’s mantle.

Even just these two talents justify the title. But Ye Wushang saw the third.

Even his calm heart couldn’t help but exclaim:
