13: Chapter 13 S-Rank Settlement! Clan Divine Skill: Ancestor's Descent!

Inside the bedroom, Yan Ling'er was like a satiated kitten, curled up in the blankets and sleeping soundly, a faint, lingering smile of satisfaction on her lips.

Within that flat belly, a tenacious seed brimming with vitality was quietly taking root and sprouting under the nourishment of the yin-yang creation fruit.

Su Feng leaned against the headboard, listening to the System settlement notification ringing in his mind.

[Ding! S-Rank Destiny Witch Yan Ling'er has successfully conceived!]

[Capture Rating: S-Rank (Utilized the power of Yin-Yang Creation to break the Heavenly Demon's curse of childlessness; sophisticated methods)!]

[Target: Yan Ling'er (Former Saintess of the Blood Demon Cult)]

[Race: Human Race]

[Physique: Heavenly Demon Charm Body (S-Rank)]

[Offspring Talent Prediction: Innate Demon God Heart! Companion Technique: Three Thousand Disillusionment Methods!]

[Note: This offspring possesses an extremely strong talent for Mental Energy and is naturally compatible with the Soul Dao and Demonic Path.]

Looking at the lines "Demon God Heart" and "Three Thousand Disillusionment Methods," a satisfied light flashed in Su Feng's eyes.

As expected of an offspring bred from an S-Rank Physique; their starting point was the finish line that ordinary Cultivators could only look up to.

However, the capture rating was only S-Rank, which was fairly standard.

After all, unlike Lin Qingxue, who was a childhood friend of twenty years and his savior, Yan Ling'er was a case of "boarding the bus before buying the ticket." Their emotional foundation was weak; reaching S-Rank was already giving Face to the creation fruit and the child's potential.

[Ding! Reward settlement being distributed!]

[Reward One: Sixty years of cultivation empowerment!]

[Reward Two: Ancient Formation Plate (Upgradable) — Nine Dragons Locking Heaven Formation!]

[Effect: Covering the Family territory with this Formation, it cannot be broken by anyone below a Late Nascent Soul Stage grand Cultivator! Within the Formation, it carries "Air Forbidden" and "Suppression" effects. Furthermore, while the host is within the Formation range, they can borrow the Qi of the Nine Dragons for a blessing, doubling their combat power!]

[Additional Function: Can produce 1 Directional Teleportation Talisman daily.]

[Reward Three: Demon God Transformation (Heaven Rank technique)!]

[Demon God Transformation: Each transformation is a new level of heaven; each level can double attributes, with nine levels in total.]

[S-Rank Capture Special Reward: Golden Dragon of Fortune upgrade — Unlock new function: Ancestors Descent!]

[Ancestors Descent: As the strongest member of the Family, when a direct Bloodline of the Su Family encounters a life-or-death crisis outside the Family territory or actively calls out, the host can ignore distance and directly tear through the Void Realm to descend by the clansman's side!]

[Duration: 1 hour per use]

[Cooldown: 7 days per person (For every additional S-Rank child conceived, the cooldown is reduced by 1 day)]

"Good stuff!"

A sharp light flashed in Su Feng's eyes. This reward could be said to be help in a time of need, directly maxing out the Su Family's safety factor!

Especially the Nine Dragons Locking Heaven Formation.

Before, although Su Feng's strength was formidable, he always worried about his home being raided while he was away. Now, with this turtle shell that couldn't be broken by anyone below the Nascent Soul stage, plus the attribute of doubling his combat power within the Formation...

Never mind that old hag Yun Liu, even if the Lingxiao Sect's Sect Master came in person, they would have to speak while kneeling at the Su Family's front gate!

As for Ancestors Descent, it gave the Su Family's expanding map infinite possibilities. Before, he worried about Su Yan and the others going out to their deaths, but now?

"Hehe, in the future, if anyone dares to touch my Su Family's people, I'll follow the internet cable... no, follow the Bloodline over and give them a lesson they'll never forget."

Su Feng felt greatly reassured.

Whoosh—!

As the rewards were distributed, a vast, sea-like warm current surged into his limbs and bones.

Su Feng's cultivation, which was originally at the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, suddenly surged like a volcanic eruption!

His internal Qi Sea churned, and that illusory Dao foundation instantly solidified, turning into a brilliant Golden Core!

False Core... Early Golden Core Stage... Mid-stage Golden Core!!

In an instant, Su Feng crossed the chasm that countless Cultivators found difficult to bridge in a hundred years, becoming a bona fide Golden Core powerhouse!

"Mm..."

Just then, Yan Ling'er beside him let out a soft moan and slowly woke up.

She opened her eyes dizzily and subconsciously touched her belly.

Although she had only just conceived, as a Heavenly Demon Charm Body with a mother-child connection, she clearly felt a weak but extremely overbearing life aura there.

Really... pregnant?

Yan Ling'er was stunned, and then an uncontrollable wild joy erupted in her eyes.

Originally, she only did it to repair her Origin, but now, feeling that little life, a maternal instinct rooted in her Bloodline instantly overwhelmed her.

This was her child!

An S-Rank demon fetus that perfectly repaired the flaws of the Heavenly Demon Charm Body!

"Awake?"

Su Feng's gentle voice came over.

Yan Ling'er looked up; her usual craftiness and charm were slightly diminished, replaced by a touch of softness.

"Master..."

She clung to him like a koala, pressing her Face against Su Feng's chest, her voice more docile than ever before:

"I can feel it... he is very strong, he's absorbing my spiritual energy."

This child has a Demon God Heart; it would be strange if he weren't strong.

Yan Ling'er's enchanting body began to slowly shrink, turning back into the appearance she had when Su Feng first met her.

"This form is better; it can improve Comprehension Ability and spiritual energy absorption, so I'll know immediately if there's anything unusual with the child." Yan Ling'er's petite Face was full of a happy glow.

Su Feng sighed helplessly; since Yan Ling'er had just conceived, he wouldn't be able to engage in Dual Cultivation with her for three months.

Yan Ling'er seemed to think of something, her brow furrowing slightly as she said with some concern:

"Master, my identity is sensitive after all. If the Lingxiao Sect discovers I'm not dead and am hiding in the Su Family..."

"Although that old hag Yun Liu is only at the Late Golden Core Stage, the Lingxiao Sect has deep foundations. If they come out in full force..."

"No matter."

Su Feng interrupted her. With a wave of his hand, a Formation Plate emitting a terrifying dragon pressure merged into the ground beneath the Su Family.

Buzz!

A golden barrier that only Su Feng could see instantly enveloped the entire Su Family.

"From today on, the Su Family is the Forbidden Ground of Azure Cloud City. Never mind Yun Liu, even if a Nascent Soul old monster comes, they won't be able to break through this gate."

Su Feng stroked her hair, his tone calm but carrying absolute confidence:

"You just need to focus on nurturing the baby. Leave the rest to me."

Feeling that aura that made her very Soul feel safe, Yan Ling'er's last bit of worry vanished.

"Oh, right."

Yan Ling'er suddenly remembered something and looked up, a flash of craftiness in her peach-blossom eyes.

"Master, hasn't Xue Li returned yet?"

Su Feng was taken aback, then chuckled: "He's probably still digging in the Cangyun Mountains."

"Then let him dig some more."

Yan Ling'er touched her belly and said righteously:

"Our child is going to inherit the Legacy in the future and will need a lot of resources. As the child's... um... provider? It's only right for Xue Li to put in more effort."

What a "provider."

Xue Li probably didn't know that in Yan Ling'er's eyes, he didn't even count as a backup.

A simp is a simp; in the end, they have nothing.

Su Feng didn't disturb Yan Ling'er's rest; he stood up and pushed the door open to leave.

Outside the courtyard, the air was fresh.

Su Yan and Su Yuan had already been waiting for a long time.

After these few days of settling, the ring on Su Yan's hand faintly emitted a medicinal fragrance, and his gaze was more determined; meanwhile, the rope at Su Yuan's waist was even more glossy, and his whole being exuded an unpredictable cleverness.

"Brother Feng!" The two saluted in unison.

Su Feng stood with his hands behind his back. The pressure of the Golden Core Stage flashed for an instant, causing their hearts to shake violently.

Brother Feng... is becoming more and more unfathomable!

"If the Su Family wants to become an Immortal Family, just guarding this small patch of land in Azure Cloud City isn't enough."

Su Feng's tone was flat but carried an unquestionable authority:

"Now that the Family has ample resources, it's time for you to go out and see the world."

"Su Yan, since you obtained the Pill Venerable's Legacy, head south to the Medicine Capital to find opportunities. That is the true stage for an Alchemist."

"Su Yuan, you obtained the Stealth Legacy, so head north to the Chaotic Lands to temper yourself. That place is a mix of fish and dragons, most suitable for your Dao."

Hearing this, both of their eyes showed a spark of fiery Battle Intent.

"We obey the Young Lord's command!"

"I will also pass this Heaven Rank technique to both of you." Su Feng directly transmitted the Heavenly Demon Transformation technique to them.

Su Yan and Su Yuan's eyes widened instantly.

"Hea... Heaven Rank technique!!!"

"Go. Don't lose Face for the Su Family." Su Feng lightly raised his hand and silently planted an Ancestor's Mark on their foreheads.

With this mark, as long as they encountered a certain-death situation, Su Feng would be able to sense it instantly and personally descend to the battlefield!

Looking at their departing figures, Su Feng's expression was indifferent.

Young eagles must eventually leave the nest.

What he needed to do was guard the base, have more children, and... accumulate foundations.
