304: The young gods are so terrifying, the Taoist breathing method
Back at the manor, Gu Qing pondered for a moment, then asked Jiang Yu for some dietary supplement recipes.
He immediately entered the Ruyi Space and began to butcher the True Dragons.
These nine True Dragons were all at the peak of the Heavenly God Realm, each tens of thousands of feet long.
“One should be enough to satisfy Yan'er, right?”
Gu Qing thought, unsure.
He would kill one first; if it wasn't enough, he would kill another.
He took out the Creation Green Lotus Cauldron, threw one of the True Dragons into it, and then added some longevity grass to boost its vitality.
Although longevity grass was a spiritual medicine, after absorbing Xuan Huang Mother Qi for countless years and undergoing Nirvana nine times, it had completely transformed, comparable to an immortal medicine, containing immense vitality.
“Roar!”
The True Dragon let out a mournful cry.
She thought of how she possessed pure-blooded True Dragon lineage, with unrivaled combat power, even stronger than human prodigies.
Her dragon scales provided defense comparable to a Heavenly God artifact.
She was a peerless divine dragon with the potential to achieve the Profound God Realm, her future boundless.
All nine of them had Profound God parents, roamed the four seas, attained the Fruit of Longevity, lived freely and unrestrained, dominating a region.
Yet, they were forcibly abducted by that old fellow, Jun Shengbao, and treated as beasts to pull his carriage.
That was bad enough.
But for Gu Qing to butcher her like an animal, what was that about?
Couldn't he see that she possessed a powerful lineage?
She was the strongest spiritual pet in the fantasies of countless human prodigies.
The more she thought, the more desolate she felt, hating the Jun Family to her core, and couldn't help but roar out.
“If there is a next life, I, Ao Chunhua, will definitely kill everyone with the surname Jun.”
“Good, ambitious. Since that’s the case, I’ll give you a chance to reincarnate.”
Gu Qing threw her true spirit out, then continued his actions, quickly skinning and gutting her.
He only kept the dragon liver; all the rest was put away to sell for money.
When it was seventy percent cooked, Gu Qing began to add hundreds of immortal spiritual herbs.
Soon, a golden, fragrant Golden Dragon was ready.
It was placed into an exquisite jade dish.
The jade dish looked similar in size to an ordinary one, but it was actually a spatial vessel capable of holding millions of feet of food... In the courtyard, Yan'er, a tiny bundle, lay sweetly asleep in He Ni's arms, crystal clear drool trickling from her mouth.
He Ni, who loved cleanliness, not only showed no trace of disgust but allowed the drool to soak her clothes.
Looking at the clear drool, He Ni's eyes were full of smiles, her expression gentle.
Her slender fingers gently poked Yan'er's tender white cheek, tirelessly.
Gu Qing brought the True Dragon over, its enticing aroma filling the air.
Yan'er's little nose twitched, her eyelashes fluttered, and her small head lifted from the embrace. With her eyes closed, she sniffed the aroma lingering in the air.
“Haha.”
Gu Qing chuckled, placing the jade dish on the stone table.
He picked up Yan'er, covered her head with his large hand, and rubbed it.
A baby's head was very soft, and the more he stroked it, the more addicted he became.
“So fragrant!”
Yan'er woke up, her big eyes fixed on the golden True Dragon, secretly swallowing saliva.
“Open wide, my dear.”
He Ni picked up chopsticks and took a small piece.
Just this small piece contained energy comparable to an immortal yuan pill.
Yan'er opened her cherry-like mouth, revealing a row of neat, tiny teeth.
“Is it delicious?” Gu Qing asked softly.
“Delicious.”
“Slow down.”
He Ni picked up another piece, and the chopsticks, imbued with magic, shrunk several thousand jin of dragon meat into a small piece.
After all, if Yan'er were to eat such a large True Dragon bite by bite, who knew how many years it would take.
He Ni's gaze flowed, looking directly into Yan'er's body. She would feed her as much as she could digest.
Yan'er's body surged with blood and qi, emanating an indestructible divine radiance. Every drop of blood and qi contained immense divine power, enough to slay a Saint Realm expert.
The dragon meat in her small belly was quickly digested and absorbed by her flesh and blood.
One True Dragon was quickly consumed by Yan'er, her small expression showing a hint of wanting more.
Clearly, she wasn't full yet.
However, she was about seventy percent full.
Seeing this, Gu Qing infused some Xuan Huang Mother Qi into her body. After refining it, Yan'er began to grow sleepy.
Gu Qing patted her little bottom a few times, and she immediately fell asleep.
“Divine spirit cubs are truly terrifying.” Gu Qing glanced at the dragon bones, an expression of disbelief in his eyes.
Even though he was mentally prepared and knew that divine spirit cubs' appetites were generally enormous, he was still startled by Yan'er's appetite.
One must know that a True Dragon at the peak of the Heavenly God Realm, plus hundreds of immortal spiritual herbs, contained immense energy and vitality, equivalent to over a thousand immortal yuan pills.
Even a hundred Heavenly God Realm cultivators couldn't finish it in a month, unable to refine all that energy.
Yet, Yan'er finished it in just a few minutes.
Her physique was unusually powerful.
One could only say, as expected of a divine spirit cub.
However, to be fair, with this eating habit, it wouldn't be surprising for her to reach the Divine King Realm upon adulthood.
After all, the age of divine spirits is not the same as humans; one year of age for them ranges from a thousand to ten thousand years, and the higher the lineage, the longer the year.
Thinking of this, Gu Qing couldn't help but ask, “Can you tell how many years our daughter counts as one year of age?”
He Ni shook her head: “I don’t know.”
Innate deities had long vanished in the Ancient Era.
Their bloodline descendants, lacking innate divinity, were not of innate lineage but rather acquired beings.
Moreover, their bloodline was diluted by time, and even if they possessed divine peculiarities, few divine spirit cubs reached the point where a thousand years counted as one year of age.
Just like divine beasts, they appeared to be pure-blooded, but in essence, they were acquired beings.
He Ni lacked a reference point and couldn't discern how many years Yan'er's one year of age truly represented.
“If Yan'er counts ten thousand years as one year of age, and we raise her for tens of thousands of years, won't she still be a baby?”
Gu Qing's expression was difficult to describe.
If that were truly the case, wouldn't he have to catch divine beasts every day?
And Yan'er's appetite would surely grow with age.
How many divine beasts would he have to catch to raise Yan'er to adulthood?
He Ni's eyes lit up; a baby she could raise for tens of thousands of years would be wonderful.
That way, she could hold Yan'er for tens of thousands of years, always inseparable.
Thinking this, He Ni's eyes showed a joyful light.
Seeing Gu Qing constantly touching Yan'er's head, or pinching her here and there, never stopping, playing with great enjoyment.
He Ni immediately became annoyed: “Stop touching her all over! Are you going to let Yan'er sleep or not?”
“Go away, I’m playing, don’t bother me.”
Gu Qing couldn't be bothered with her; if you don't tease a cub, it's meaningless.
He leaned his head close to Yan'er, inhaling the milky scent, taking a deep sniff.
“Give Yan'er to me. You go catch divine beasts. Next time, cook two True Dragons.”
He Ni could no longer tolerate it; anger flickered in her clear eyes.
She had never felt so furious, wanting to strangle Gu Qing.
How could a person be so wicked?
Yan'er was not a toy.
Nor was she food.
Picking up Yan'er, He Ni flicked her sleeve, teleporting Gu Qing to the deep sea.
Looking at her adorable daughter, He Ni pursed her lips, her expression hesitant.
Gu Qing seemed to be having a lot of fun; it looked very enjoyable.
Should she try it too?
No.
If she did that, what would be the difference between her and Gu Qing?
But... He Ni ultimately couldn't resist the allure of the cub, and the more she stroked, the more addicted she became, playing with great enjoyment, her eyes curving into smiles.
After playing for a while, as if remembering something, He Ni imitated Gu Qing, taking a big sniff.
“So this is what it’s like to be a bad guy... this is... good.”
He Ni's expression was joyful, as if she had discovered a new continent.
Over the next two years, He Ni maintained a proper facade, but as soon as Gu Qing left, she would immediately transform into a baby-sniffing maniac.
He Ni wished she could send Gu Qing to catch divine beasts every day.
Unfortunately, Gu Qing was too efficient; he could catch dozens of Heavenly God Realm divine beasts in one trip.
In two years, True Dragons, Flood Dragons, Dragon Turtles, Kun Fish, Dragon Fish... and also Phoenixes, Luan Birds, Qilin, Divine Deer, and so on, all the highly nourishing demonic beasts and divine beasts in the Xuantian Domain's seas and lands, were within Gu Qing's hunting range.
He had almost caught all the rare demonic beasts in the Xuantian Domain.
After all, by now, Yan'er had already broken through to the Heavenly God Realm, requiring at least thirty Heavenly God Realm demonic beasts for a single meal.
Gu Qing asked Jiang Yu for a divine cultivation technique, the Dao Induction Breathing Technique.
Yan'er cultivated the divine path, not needing to condense a Heavenly God Dao Fruit like the immortal path.
The divine path directly controlled laws, awakening innate divine abilities, making its combat power far stronger than immortal path cultivators.
However, the immortal path also had many merits; in terms of profundity and analysis of laws, the immortal path was more refined than the divine path.
He Ni taught Yan'er immortal profound methods daily, occasionally taking Yan'er to experience the mortal world.
“Is Yan'er a divine spirit cub, or a gold-eating beast?”
Gu Qing's Dao Pupil scanned Yan'er; her blood and qi were unimaginably surging.
She was almost on par with him.
Of course!
Eating so many Heavenly God Realm demonic beasts and immortal spiritual herbs every day, how could she not be powerful?
“Thanks to your Dao Induction Breathing Technique,” He Ni said.
With her discerning eye, she could naturally see how heaven-defying the Dao Induction Breathing Technique was.
One could say this was not a divine path technique at all; describing it as a Great Dao breathing and absorption method would be more fitting.
Even a mortal who obtained it could cultivate all the way to a Divine King.
Both she and Gu Qing had cultivated it, and their cultivation progressed rapidly, several times faster than cultivating in seclusion.
This showed how heaven-defying this method was.
“Hehe.” Gu Qing chuckled twice, feeling a bit guilty.
He didn't possess such a heaven-defying method; the system couldn't even compare to a single strand of Jiang Yu's hair.
Over these two years, while seemingly busy, he had actually been constantly exchanging messages and flirting with Jiang Yu.
He had almost reeled Jiang Yu in.
“We’ve played enough. When are we going into seclusion to merge with the Chaotic Mother Nest?” Gu Qing asked.
“Anytime,” He Ni said, holding the well-behaved Yan'er.
“Alright then, I’ll go take a look at the Heaven Refining Great Array and the Qi Tian Great Array.”
If not for waiting for Xi Ling to complete the arrays, and using his Dao Pupil to scan the profound mysteries of these two arrays, Gu Qing would have already merged with the Chaotic Mother Nest.
Gu Qing transformed into a ray of starlight, traversing space-time, his Dao Pupil scanning the three hundred and sixty array foundations.
And the three thousand auxiliary array platforms.
Then he arrived at the Jun Family.
This was the core of the two arrays.
Under the scan of his Dao Pupil, all the profound mysteries of the two miraculous arrays were laid bare.
Within the array, Xi Ling was seen continuously forming hand seals, connecting the three hundred and sixty array foundations and three thousand auxiliary array platforms.
Heaven and earth transformed into a giant furnace.
At the very last step, Xi Ling suddenly stopped.
Everything was ready, only lacking the final push.
Gu Qing watched, feeling frustrated, having an impulse to drag Xi Ling back into the array and make her complete the final step.
