226: Chapter 226 Heavenly Realm Sends Gifts for a Healthy Pregnancy? Yun Qingwan Gains Favorability

The Dragon Domain Monthly Mining Ranking Competition has just launched, and the five mine caves of Wanlong City are still clanging with activity.

Players are queuing up with pickaxes, and the world channel is filled with screenshots of the rankings.

"The top spot in the Elite Group has increased again!"

"The Novice Mine is amazing; I've dug up fragments too!"

Lin Zhe stood outside the Dragon Emperor Palace, his expression calm.

Ao Ningshuang was inside the palace nurturing her pregnancy; the white light from the warm soul pendant never ceased, and the Dragon-patterned fetal breath of Lin Jin in her womb was very stable.

Just then, a pillar of holy white light suddenly lit up in the sky.

Buzz—

The pillar of light landed in front of the Wanlong City Welcoming Platform, spreading a holy radiance that even purified some of the dust drifting from the mining area.

The players looked up instantly.

"The Heavenly Realm is here again?"

"Could they be sending gifts again?"

"Saintess Yun Qingwan is working hard to gain favor!"

The pillar of light dissipated, and the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Realm slowly stepped out with a diplomatic mission.

As soon as he landed, he bowed deeply to Lin Zhe.

"Mr. Lin Zhe."

"Her Highness the Saintess heard that Her Majesty the Dragon Emperor is nurturing her pregnancy and specifically ordered this old man to bring generous prenatal gifts."

After speaking, he waved his hand.

Crash!

A dozen platinum gift chests opened simultaneously.

In the first row were a hundred bottles of top-tier Holy Light Water.

In the second row were nine Thousand-Year Holy Light Lotus Seeds, each floating in a jade cup, emitting a gentle holy light.

In the final jade box lay a palm-sized piece of warm jade.

The warm jade was milky white throughout, with three rings of Holy Light Divine Runes slowly rotating inside.

The Grand Elder presented it with both hands, his voice solemn.

"This item is called the Holy Light Warm Jade, a divine treasure of the Heavenly Realm for prenatal care."

"Once worn, it can form three layers of Holy Light Shields around Her Majesty the Dragon Emperor."

"The first layer grants immunity to dark toxins."

"The second layer grants immunity to curse interference."

"The third layer can increase the holy light resistance of the fetus in the womb."

"The Saintess said that Prince Lin Jin will surely be the sovereign of the Dragon Domain in the future and should not be affected by even a hint of sinister energy."

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding players exploded with excitement.

"Three layers of shields?"

"Immunity to toxins, immunity to curses, and it even increases Prince Lin Jin's holy light resistance?"

"The Heavenly Realm's gift really hit the mark!"

Lin Zhe glanced at the warm jade and nodded slightly.

"That was thoughtful of her."

Qing Yu quickly brought the warm jade into the Dragon Emperor Palace.

A moment later, three holy white halos lit up inside the palace.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

The three layers of Holy Light Shields unfolded in sequence, steadily enveloping Ao Ningshuang.

Ao Ningshuang's cold voice drifted out from the palace.

"The fetal breath is even more stable."

Chi Lie and the other dragon generals all breathed a sigh of relief.

The Grand Elder also visibly relaxed and then took out a Holy Light Contract Stone.

"Additionally, to celebrate the stability of the Dragon Domain, Her Highness the Saintess is specifically issuing blessings to all visitors from beyond the heavens across the server."

The next second, a server-wide announcement popped up with a bang.

[Server Announcement: Saintess Yun Qingwan of the Heavenly Realm congratulates the Dragon Empress Ao Ningshuang on her stable pregnancy and is issuing a Holy Light Blessing to all players on the server!]

[All players on the server have received a 3-day 10% Holy Light Resistance buff!]

[Registered players of Luofeng Village, Fengyu Village, and Shiti Village will enjoy an additional 5% discount on top of the original 20% discount for entering the Heavenly Realm dungeons!]

Holy white radiance showered down across the server.

Prompts lit up above the heads of all the players.

"Another Holy Light Resistance buff!"

"The Heavenly Realm dungeon discount dropped again? Falling Maple players are living the dream!"

"Saintess Yun Qingwan is so generous!"

Players in Dark dungeons tested it on the spot.

A Shield Warrior in the front row took a hit of Dark Corrosion directly, and his health bar dropped significantly less than before.

"It works! The pressure on the healers is much lower!"

"Let's grind! No sleep for three days!"

In front of the Wanlong City Welcoming Platform, Lin Zhe raised his hand.

A pale gold Power of Rules mixed with Divine Light of Nature fell into the body of the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Realm.

Buzz—

Light green blessing patterns appeared on the Grand Elder's body, and his originally aged aura instantly became much more vibrant.

[You have received a permanent Natural Blessing buff]

[Effect: Natural recovery speed increased, toxin resistance increased, all attributes slightly increased]

A flash of wild joy crossed the Grand Elder's eyes, and he immediately prostrated himself in a bow.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Mr. Lin Zhe!"

"This old man will certainly report your return gift to Her Highness the Saintess!"

Lin Zhe said indifferently, "Tell Yun Qingwan that I have accepted her gift."

Almost simultaneously, a system prompt rang in Lin Zhe's mind.

[Ding! Detected that the top-tier female NPC, Saintess Yun Qingwan of the Heavenly Realm, has increased her favorability toward the host by 2 points!]

[Ding! The trigger progress for the Fifth Bond has slightly increased!]

Lin Zhe's eyes flickered slightly, but he said nothing more.

The Heavenly Realm diplomatic mission quickly retreated into the pillar of light.

After the holy white radiance dissipated, the players outside Wanlong City were still spamming the chat.

"Prince Lin Jin's shields are maxed out!"

"The Heavenly Realm benefits have arrived!"

"Following Boss Lin Zhe, even prenatal gifts can turn into server-wide buffs!"

Inside the Dragon Emperor Palace, the three layers of Holy Light Shields flowed quietly.

Outside the palace, the clanging of the mine caves rang out once more.
