142: Chapter 142 The Tenth Son is Born

The Lingxiao Treasure Hall reconstruction was nearing completion.

Around it, the faces of many Immortals were shocked to the point of numbness.

The former Demon Mountain had become its foundation.

The Supreme Dragon vein was its skeleton.

The Dao runes within the Heavenly Emperor's Jade Book were its flesh and blood.

A brand-new divine hall rose from the ground, piercing straight into the clouds.

It was more magnificent than ancient legends.

It stood unknown tens of thousands of zhang high, supporting the sky of the entire Immortal Domain.

On the roof of the hall were billions of Chaos glazed gold tiles.

Under the light of the Immortal radiance, nine-colored divine brilliance illuminated the Myriad Realms.

Three hundred sixty-five coiling Dragon jade pillars, each comparable to an ancient sacred mountain.

The Dragons, Phoenixes, and Qilins carved on the pillars came alive in the mist, swimming and roaring, their majesty making one's heart tremble.

The plaza in front of the hall was paved with a single piece of star core.

The smooth mirror-like surface could reflect a person's past and present lives.

On both sides, newly born divine trees and Immortal flowers swayed without wind, sprinkling light rain, all of which was pure life energy.

Millions of newly surrendered Cultivators were all kneeling on the ground, stunned.

They looked up at the heavenly court divine hall in the divine light, their minds blank.

"This... this is the Lingxiao Treasure Hall? This is the heavenly court?"

A Golden Immortal Cultivator's voice was trembling.

"A miracle, this is a true miracle! Using the Dragon vein as a foundation, stars as bricks... The might of Your Majesty is beyond what I dare to imagine!"

"I... I can actually cultivate in such a place..."

Compared to the shock of these people, Li Changsheng and the other children were eyes shining, chasing and playing in the giant palace.

Touching this coiling Dragon pillar here, sniffing that nine-colored Immortal flower there.

To them, this was an unimaginably huge and incredibly fun new home.

Li Xuan stood at the highest point of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, looking down, very satisfied.

With this Lingxiao Treasure Hall, the Luck of the heavenly court finally had a root.

From now on, with this as the center, he would envelop the order of the heavenly court over the entire Immortal Domain, and even the Myriad Realms.

But just at the peak of this festive atmosphere, an unexpected turn occurred.

The clear, cloudless sky darkened without any warning.

It wasn't dark clouds.

It was a deeper darkness, as if the light of the entire Universe had been swallowed.

An oppressive, destructive, and violent aura pressed down from above the Nine Heavens.

All the Immortals stopped breathing.

"What's going on?"

"Why did the sky turn black? Are there enemies again?"

Countless people looked up in terror.

At the end of the firmament, clusters of thunderclouds, whose nature could not be described, were gathering crazily.

Purple-black.

What rolled inside was not water vapor, but pure, solidified Chaos Qi.

The energy released by the collision of even a wisp of airflow was enough to annihilate a Golden Immortal.

Crack!

A purple-gold lightning bolt tore through the sky.

This was not ordinary thunder.

Within the thunder light was the supreme Dao Law of the source of all thunder.

Before the sound of thunder even arrived, that destructive Dao rhyme caused the Primordial Spirit of countless Immortals to sting, their Dao Heart on the verge of cracking.

"Chaos Divine Thunder! The Chaos Divine Thunder that only appears at the creation of the world!"

An old Golden Immortal let out a desperate scream.

"It's over, the reconstruction of the heavenly court is Heaven-Defying, is the Heavenly Dao coming to destroy us?"

"Run! If you get even a little bit on you, even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal will have their daluo dao fruit damaged!"

The new members of the heavenly court, who had just established a trace of belonging, had their faith collapse the moment they saw this scene. Countless people were so scared they collapsed to the ground, and some even desperately fled into the distance.

Li Xuan's children also stopped playing, their little faces full of gravity.

"Father, this thunder is so fierce!"

Li Changsheng's small hand gripped his wooden sword, his Supreme Sword Body instinctively feeling the threat.

Behind Li Qingyue, a bright lunar mirror appeared, casting down moonlight and shielding her younger siblings within it.

Li Yan pursed his small lips, his eyes flashing with chains of Law. He tried to command the thunder to retreat, but found that the area where the thundercloud was located had become a forbidden zone for Law, and his Will Manifests as Law was repelled.

Just when everyone thought disaster was imminent, Li Xuan still stood with his hands behind his back at the pinnacle of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, his expression unchanged.

He looked at the terrifying scene above the firmament, but a smile appeared on his face instead.

He spoke slowly, his voice not loud, but clearly transmitted into everyone's ears, dispelling the fear in their hearts.

"Do not panic."

"This is not a heavenly punishment, nor a disaster."

"It is my son, announcing his birth to these Myriad Realms."

What?!

An Imperial Prince is born?!

What kind of Heaven-Defying Physique is this, that the moment he is born, he can summon the legendary Chaos Divine Thunder to offer congratulations?

This lineup was ten times more terrifying than the previous nine princes and princesses combined!

Everyone was stunned by Li Xuan's words.

Just at this moment, "Rumble—!"

The sea of Chaos thunder above the Nine Heavens erupted completely!

Billions of thunderbolts no longer flashed in a disorderly manner, but began to gather and merge.

A thunder dragon condensed from purple-gold divine thunder, a heavenly blade forged from extinguishing black thunder, a thunder pool constructed from ten-thousand-Law divine thunder...

Countless thunder visions that only existed in myths appeared one by one on the sky screen, and finally, all the visions collapsed and merged, turning into a—Spear of Thunder Punishment that pierced through heaven and earth!

That spear was completely wrapped in Chaos Qi, and the tip of the spear flashed with a sharpness that could destroy all things.

Just looking at it made one feel that their true spirit was about to be torn apart.

Its target was not the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, not Li Xuan, but pointed straight at the inner palace of the heavenly court, the palace where the consort about to give birth was located!

"No!"

A consort let out a cry of alarm.

If this spear fell, let alone a palace, even the entire heavenly court might be instantly wiped from the Immortal Domain!

Just as the tragedy was about to happen, a crisp, loud, and resonant baby's cry suddenly burst out from that palace.

Piercing through the clouds and cracking rocks, it actually faintly overwhelmed the thunder rolling across the sky!

"Waa—!"

This cry seemed to contain some kind of supreme magic.

That Spear of Thunder Punishment, which had begun to slowly pierce down, suddenly trembled and stopped in mid-air.

Then, in everyone's unbelievable gaze, that Spear of Thunder Punishment, which was enough to destroy everything, began to dissolve inch by inch. All its violent and destructive power transformed into the purest and gentlest Origin of the Dao of Thunder.

Finally, the energy gathered by the billions of thunderbolts turned into a purple-gold light ball only the size of a fist, as if it contained a thunder Universe.

It did not fall, but turned into a stream of light, flashed once, and penetrated the many Restrictions of the palace, gently sinking into the center of the newborn baby's eyebrows.

The sea of thunder in the sky vanished like smoke.

The darkness dissipated, and the Immortal light reappeared.

The sky was bright again.

Li Xuan revealed a satisfied smile.

And in his mind, the System's notification sound rang out as expected.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for the birth of the tenth offspring!]

[Ding! Born from the interaction of the Origin of Thunder and Chaos Qi, naturally possessing the "Chaos Thunder God Physique"! All thunder bows to him, immune to all Laws!]

[Ding! Detected that the Host has successfully continued the Bloodline and given birth to an extraordinary offspring, rewarding the Host: One supreme divine thunder — "Du Tian Divine Thunder"!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for increasing cultivation, promoting to the third level of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm!]

Boom!

A torrent of energy, more terrifying than any previous Breakthrough, instantly poured into Li Xuan's body.

His daluo dao fruit shone brightly, and the Dao patterns on it became more complex and profound.

His true spirit took another step forward on the bank of the river of time and space, seeing more distant time and space scenery.

At the same time, in his Dantian Qi Sea, a gray, seemingly inconspicuous, but emanating a thunder that made even Li Xuan feel palpitations, slowly condensed into shape.

Du Tian Divine Thunder.

The ancestor of all thunder.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Li Xuan said good three times, his figure flashed, and he appeared outside the delivery room.

The palace door opened, and a consort with an elegant temperament walked out, holding the swaddling clothes with a happy smile.

"Your Majesty, it's a boy, he is very healthy."

Li Xuan took the child and looked down.

He saw that the baby in the swaddling clothes did not have red and wrinkled skin like other newborns, but was carved from pink jade, his skin as crystal clear as jade, and a pair of big eyes curiously looking at Li Xuan, full of spirituality.

Between his eyebrows, that purple-gold thunder Origin had already turned into a small lightning mark, flickering in and out of sight.

The baby seemed to like Li Xuan's aura very much, reaching out with his fleshy little hand and grabbing one of Li Xuan's fingers.

Wisps of tiny, almost invisible golden electric arcs jumped between his tiny fingertips and Li Xuan's finger, making a "crackle" sound.

This electric arc containing the Chaos Dao Law was enough to instantly paralyze a Golden Immortal, but falling on Li Xuan's hand, it was like a gentle massage.

"From now on, you shall be called Li Xiao."

Li Xuan held his tenth son, his eyes filled with infinite passion and fatherly love.

"Named after Lingxiao."

"In the future, you will act on my behalf to wield the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder and punish on behalf of Heaven!"

The baby seemed to understand his words, actually opening his toothless little mouth and "giggling" with laughter.

That laughter was crisp and pleasant, spreading throughout the entire heavenly court.

All the Immortals who heard this laughter felt as if their Divine Soul had been washed clean, the previous fear and uneasiness swept away, leaving only infinite longing and awe for this newborn Imperial Prince, and for the future of the entire heavenly court.
