454: Chapter 454 Heading to the Ancient Forbidden Land!

"You are heavily pregnant now, so don't bother with these mundane etiquettes. Qingxue, I've specifically brought some good things for you and our unborn daughter today."

As he spoke, Lu Yuan sat down by the soft couch with a smile and flipped his palm.

With a soft "clatter," a pile of top-tier medicinal herbs, radiating dazzling immortal light and a fragrance so thick it wouldn't dissipate, instantly filled the entire Qingxue Palace.

Various world-rare, top-tier fetal-nourishing divine medicine, scavenged from the deepest secret treasury of the Taiyi Immortal Sect, were piled like a small mountain on the jade table in the hall.

There was the "Ten-Thousand-Year Purple Jade Marrow" contained in a transparent glass bottle, emitting a misty purple haze; and the "Nine-Leaf Immortal Lotus," crystal clear throughout, with natural Dao patterns inscribed on every leaf, faintly emitting heavenly sounds.

There was also the "True Dragon Saliva" sealed within Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice, where the faint shadow of a small golden Dragon could be seen roaming and roaring... Every single treasure here, if it were to leak out to the world outside Daluo Heaven, would be enough to make the high-and-mighty Profound Immortal experts tear off their masks of civility and go completely mad.

However, Lu Yuan didn't even spare a second glance at this pile of priceless treasures.

What he truly valued was the wisp of purple-gold mist currently swirling slowly in his open right palm, seemingly nurturing the stars of the Universe.

hongmeng purple qi!

"This is...?"

Gu Qingxue was originally surprised by the table full of rare treasures, but when her gaze fell upon that wisp of purple-gold mist, she was instantly stunned.

Even with her vast knowledge, she had never seen such a sacred and ancient aura.

What she found even more incredible was that the moment this purple Qi appeared, she felt the little life in her womb suddenly become exceptionally active. It was no longer the usual gentle kicking, but a cheerful, longing throb, as if the purple Qi held a fatal attraction for her.

"This is hongmeng purple qi, the Origin Qi from before heaven and earth were divided and all things began.

Forget Daluo Heaven; even in the entire vast Immortal Realm, a second wisp cannot be found."

Lu Yuan gazed at his wife and smiled as he pressed his palm close to Gu Qingxue's abdomen, slowly pushing that wisp of hongmeng purple qi—heavy as a galaxy yet gentle as morning mist—into Gu Qingxue's womb: "With the baptism of this Origin of all things, after our Qingcheng is born, her skeletal structure and Aptitude will surely surpass the Three Thousand Dao Domains, suppressing all the eternal Prodigies until they cannot lift their heads!"

"Buzz—"

At the exact moment the hongmeng purple qi completely entered her body, a dazzling purple-gold immortal light instantly erupted from Gu Qingxue's lower abdomen.

This light was not piercing; instead, it carried a weight and gentleness as if the world were being created.

Amidst the pervasive immortal light, the grand and profound Great Dao's harmonic sounds faintly echoed within Qingxue Palace, as if a supreme Immortal Emperor, transcending the river of time, was sitting atop the clouds, softly chanting the most ancient scriptures to bless this soon-to-be-born life.

The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi for hundreds of miles around seemed to be summoned by some supreme existence, erupting into a total riot and madly converging toward Qingxue Palace.

The dense Spiritual Qi even transformed into physical droplets, condensing into golden, glowing Great Dao Golden Lotuses within the room, which continuously bloomed and withered in an endless cycle, appearing miraculous to the extreme.

Lu Yuan carefully extended a thread of Divine Sense into her. Immediately, his face revealed uncontrollable ecstasy and surprise.

He clearly perceived that his daughter Lu Qingcheng's already flawless and divinely crafted Innate Chaos Body was undergoing a qualitative change so wondrous it defied description after greedily absorbing the hongmeng purple qi.

Within that aura of Chaos, a supreme Grandmist attribute had been forcibly integrated. The little one's bones, Meridians, and even every drop of her not-yet-fully-formed blood became deeper and more indefinable! It was as if she herself was about to transform into an independent small Universe!

This kind of Aptitude, let alone in this lower Realm where the path of immortality had declined, even in the very core of the legendary Immortal Domain where various immortals vied for supremacy, it would absolutely be unprecedented and unmatched by anyone in the future!

"Good, very good. As expected of my, Lu Yuan's, daughter."

Lu Yuan satisfiedly withdrew his Divine Sense, his eyes filled with pride and doting affection.

He lowered his head and gently planted a kiss on Gu Qingxue's smooth forehead.

"Just stay here in Qingxue Palace and focus on nurturing the baby. You can use these divine medicine as you wish.

Trivial matters outside, as well as the remaining annoying bugs, will all be handled by me."

After tenderly settling his wife, Lu Yuan turned and stepped out of Qingxue Palace, his gaze instantly returning to cold and sharp.

He immediately sent a voice transmission, summoning his eldest son—Lu Li.

"Father, were you looking for me?"

Accompanied by a sound of breaking through the air like that of a Primeval Fierce Beast, Lu Li's figure instantly appeared before Lu Yuan.

His green robes fluttered in the wind, and his face was handsome, still maintaining the appearance of an elegant youth.

However, after experiencing the recent series of slaughters, his originally clear eyes now held a touch of the sharpness and Killing Intent belonging to a peerless swordsman.

"Come with me to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land."

Lu Yuan looked at his equally gifted son and didn't waste words, getting straight to the point: "Su Changkong, whose bones you broke before, isn't dead; he was rescued.

Someone who doesn't know their place wants to go into the Forbidden Ground to snatch the nutrients that should have belonged to your sister after her birth. We're going to snatch them back now."

"What? Someone dares to snatch my future sister's things?"

Hearing this, Lu Li's originally calm face instantly distorted with anger, and he completely blew his top.

As a "sister-protecting maniac" to his core, this had simply touched his reverse scale. In an instant, the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength within his body began to circulate automatically. Among the eighty-four million particles, ten million Giant Elephant Particles woke up simultaneously, letting out a world-shaking primeval roar within him that caused the surrounding space to develop fine cracks.

"Father, which blind dog is it? To dare touch my sister's Opportunity, I'll go and smash him to pieces alive right now and scatter his ashes!" Lu Li roared with clenched fists, his knuckles turning white, radiating Killing Intent.

"No rush. You'll know when we get there. This time, consider it a trial for your actual combat skills."

Because that mysterious Bronze Immortal Palace had strict Realm restrictions, Lu Yuan, as a Golden Immortal level powerhouse, would definitely trigger a backlash and the collapse of the palace's Law if he entered by force.

Therefore, bringing along Lu Li—whose cultivation was currently stuck at the Early Stage of the Profound Immortal Realm but whose true combat strength was enough to fight against a Golden Immortal—to act as a "thug" and "robber" was simply perfect. The father and son looked at each other and smiled, their smiles both revealing an identical hint of being scheming and cold-blooded.

Subsequently, two auras soared into the sky, turning into two streaks of light that tore through the horizon. They directly and arrogantly ripped through the Void Realm barrier ahead, heading straight for the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land in the far north of Daluo Heaven with rolling Killing Intent.
