"What are you looking at, silly."
"Looking at my beautiful wife," Ye Chen said with a smile.
"Flatterer!"
Yu Qing gave a coquettish rebuke, her beautiful eyes, like autumn water flowing, glanced at Ye Chen and she sighed lightly: "What a pity. Can I really only reach the Ninth Tribulation? Back then, I was even stronger than you."
Comparing the gap between herself and Ye Chen, she found it was vast.
She recalled the past, when she had always been ahead of Ye Chen. Now, she had finally been surpassed.
Although she was happy that her husband had become stronger, she also felt somewhat dejected, because it seemed she could no longer help her husband in battle as she had in the past.
Seeing the slight pout on his beloved wife's exquisite face, her red lips slightly pursed, appearing exceptionally adorable and charming at this moment, Ye Chen couldn't help but smile, his heart filled with infinite warmth.
"Qingqing."
Ye Chen gently stroked his beloved wife's cheek with his palm, pulling her into his embrace, and said softly: "As long as you can stay by my side, that is the best."
"Mhm."
Yu Qing hugged Ye Chen tightly, resting her head against her husband's chin.
The two left the Heaven-Fall Mausoleum and found themselves in a beautiful landscape within the Emperor World, watching the red sun setting in the west, leaning against each other, where silence spoke louder than words.
"Yue, let's have a child too."
"Hmm?"
"I love you!"
Who knows who it was that, with a wave of the hand, opened up a separate space, shielding everything, causing a divine hall to appear, with a soft, large bed laid out within.
A man and a woman, a talented man and a beautiful woman, alone together, as passion rose, their garments gradually lessened, leaving only low, heavy breaths and soft moans faintly discernible.
Figures of starkly different skin tones—one like ancient bronze, the other like mutton-fat jade—appeared, tightly embracing each other.
Cherry lips fell like rain, entwined with each other, the covers tossed like red waves...
For a long, long time,
everything came to a stop.
On the soft, large bed, a man and a woman held each other close.
Ye Chen embraced his beloved wife from behind, his large hand resting on her flat, jade-like abdomen, gently caressing.
Yu Qing also looked at her own abdomen and said softly, "Yue, do you think I will also, like Sister Yi Wu and Sister Abenue, give you a child?"
"You will!"
A very plain, yet very firm tone!
"I wonder how Sister Jingruo, Yi Wu, and Chen'er are doing now. It's a pity they aren't in the Ten Heavens Ancient Domain," Yu Qing sighed lightly.
Ye Chen sighed as well.
The Ultimate Ancient Path and the Supreme Ancient Path were the two cultivation ancient paths for the younger generation across the Chaos Sea's myriad ancient universes. The former targeted all geniuses, while the latter focused on Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao descendants.
But the end of both ancient paths was a brand new, vast world.
The Ultimate Ancient Path led to the mysterious Eight Desolates Ancient Domain.
The Supreme Ancient Path led to the Ten Heavens Ancient Domain.
Moreover, what was ultimately contested for on the Ultimate Ancient Path was the "Ultimate."
What was contested for on the Supreme Ancient Path was the "Supreme One."
Ye Chen strongly suspected that the "Ultimate" and "Supreme One" contested on the two ancient paths were connected to some degree.
"Yue, do you think their situation in that Eight Desolates Ancient Domain might be very difficult?" Yu Qing expressed some worry.
Ye Chen had naturally considered this question as well, but he was very confident.
"You don't need to worry. Jingruo is one of the Nine Ultimate Ancient Path Overlords. Yi Wu and Chen'er's cultivation isn't weak either. With Yi Yi, Ya Ya, Ruo Xi, the Golden Little Divine Dragon, and others by their side, along with familiar people like the Sun God, their situation won't be difficult. It might even be better than the situation our human race faces."
Back then, the Goddess Zhao Jingruo, one of the Nine Ancient Path Overlords, dominated the Ultimate Ancient Path, peerless in the world. She even had a Dao body reverse its course on the Ultimate Ancient Path to return, intimidating all enemies across the heavens and protecting Ye Chen.
Furthermore, with Yi Wu, Chen'er, Yi Yi, Ya Ya, Ruo Xi, the Golden Little Divine Dragon, and others by her side, plus the established Moon Hall forces.
He believed that with the Goddess's capabilities, even in the perilous Eight Desolates Ancient Domain, she could still dominate a vast territory and continue to reign supreme.
The Goddess possessed the bearing of a Female Emperor.
Boom—
Suddenly, outside the Emperor World, within the Heaven-Fall Mausoleum, a massive fluctuation occurred.
Clearly visible, a terrifying pillar of light shot straight into the sky, vanishing into the boundless starry void. It carried chaotic light and was accompanied by a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering dragon roar and a Dao proclamation.
For a moment, it seemed to become the sole existence between heaven and earth.
As the light pillar shot skyward, the entire Emperor World distinctly felt it. Vast amounts of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy rushed in from all directions at extreme speed, gathering majestically towards the center of the Heaven-Fall Mausoleum.
"A True Dragon is being born?"
The entire human Emperor World was stirred.
Especially Ye Chen, who sensed a tremor of bloodline connection.
"Yue!" Yu Qing looked at him.
Ye Chen, no longer as calm as before, said with excitement, "It must be Abenue going into labor. My child is about to come into this world."
The two quickly dressed and left the place, rushing like lightning to the central area of the Heaven-Fall Mausoleum.
At this moment, many human powerhouses had already arrived, including the three Primordial Sovereigns: Sun Sovereign, Heaven-Penetrating Sovereign, and Sword Heaven Sovereign. Qin Wu and others had naturally come as well.
Visible to the naked eye, at the very center, beside Abenue, a small infant floated autonomously in the air. A layer of hazy, chaotic light halo enveloped its body, continuously devouring the boundless spiritual energy of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
It seemed as if it would completely drain the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy of nearly half the Emperor World.
Streams of solidified Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy poured into its body, causing the little infant's aura to rise rapidly.
"To be able to devour the vast spiritual energy of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths upon birth is truly heaven-defying. Even Emperor Sons and Daughters or Immortal Dao descendants at birth are probably no more than this."
Someone present sighed inwardly. The Battle Saint King himself was heaven-defying, and even his son at birth was the same, capable of devouring the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, enough to rival Emperor Sons and Daughters, Immortal Dao descendants, and the like.
Perhaps it wouldn't be long before it reached the Saint Realm level.
Rumble—
More importantly, as the little infant devoured the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the countless great tombs of supreme powerhouses within the Heaven-Fall Mausoleum suddenly began to tremble violently.
At this moment, from atop the great tombs of supreme powerhouses, one after another, phantom figures of Primordial Divine Demons manifested, roaring towards the sky, supporting the heavens and standing upon the earth. They carried supreme Dao profundities and were accompanied by a sky full of Dao laws, permeating the myriad Daos of the heavens.
The dozen or so great tombs closest to the central area even had intense Sovereign Heavenly Might slowly blooming.
Phantoms of Primordial Sovereigns manifested, and even Emperor Lords appeared, ruling over the world.
Under such intense pressure, the many powerhouses at the center of the Heaven-Fall Mausoleum found it difficult to endure. Only the Sun Sovereign, Sword Heaven Sovereign, Heaven-Penetrating Sovereign, and others spread out layers of light halos to protect everyone.
However, the little infant was completely unaffected. On the contrary, within the chaotic light pillar, a peerless, unparalleled Heavenly Dragon appeared, carrying vast Primordial Chaos energy.
A supreme dragon might that ruled over the world spread out, resisting the pressure from these phantoms of supreme powerhouses.
