Chapter 190: Pregnancy

A few hours later, an invisible wave centered on Lin Feng's forehead suddenly spread outward.

But soon it collided with the thick stone walls surrounding the alchemy chamber.

Although this soul power was already strong, it was still blocked by those precious special stone bricks.

"Hehe, my current soul power has almost reached,"

After fully absorbing that cluster of soul essence, Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes, which carried excitement, and said with a smile.

Before his re-cultivation, he was already a Sixth-Grade Junior Alchemist.

After this period of cultivation, his soul power has reached Sixth-Grade Intermediate.

Now, with the aid of nearly a thousand souls, he was directly propelled to the Sixth-Grade Peak realm.

After personally experiencing an elevation, he finally understood.

Why the rumor says that after an alchemist reaches the top ten of the Exotic Fire ranking and can choose a "something", the chosen one must be the Falling Heart Flame.

Having tasted the sweet, Lin Feng ended his longing for fewer souls.

"As the child's father, he must contribute for your unborn child,"

During those days of cultivation, I always felt something was off with my body.

You actually discovered a tremendously powerful great life at your swollen belly.

But the subsequent condition, evidently, is sufficient to refine this precious, unparalleled First-Tier Pill.

"Shasha, he's worried; as a father, you would naturally try to let your child benefit from the best secret technique. What does their lowest‑grade secret technique require?"

"Shasha, is that true?"

He stored the underground jade bottle and alchemy cauldron into the containment ring, then proceeded into the room.

After thinking it over, he employed the Snake-People Tribe's team‑formation secret technique to roughly scan his entire body.

Decades later, it will probably be within that Pill Tower.

Seeing Medu's untroubled expression, Lin Fengsha said helplessly, "If you use a medium‑grade secret technique, your child can, like you, reach the Dou Zong realm; how many would dare to bully you then?"

After all, soul power is exceedingly important for an alchemist.

Sensing the other's emotion, which had become sensitive because of pregnancy, Medu, while speaking, lifted your soft, delicate body onto her lap, gently stroked your slender waist, and said with a smile.

"Shasha, you've been together for several years, does he still understand you? It's his first time being a father, it's not that easy..."

At that time you were like a panicked big boy, knowing how to deal with the situation afterwards.

"Low‑grade secret techniques require a pill that is extremely difficult to refine, called the Heaven Soul Blood Bone Pill. This pill is a First‑Tier Pill; although it can minimally boost your child's potential, it is overly difficult to refine. Even now, he is probably still far from being a One-Star Alchemist."

After a brief pause, Medu hurriedly asked, "Shasha, within what time frame is the optimal period for your child to receive secret‑technique nourishment, and how long does it last?"

With a soul of Medu's caliber, the amount needed to ascend to the spirit realm would likely have to be multiplied several times.

The result is that the probe knows, and the probe is startled.

Shaking her head, Du Yan brushed away those tangled thoughts.

After lying in Du Yan's arms for a while, Lin Fengsha seemed to recall something.

Hearing that, Medu also reacted; the original work indeed lacked that, so she asked, "How do you do it?"

At the same time, her stark white pupils, moving with each blink, fixed on your rugged belly that bore not a single strand of excess flesh.

Having said that, her beautiful eyes suddenly turned to Medu, and her jade hand clenched into a fist as she said, "That guy probably only wants to enjoy himself, and wants to take responsibility, right?"

"Unfortunately, in all this time, I've only collected so much..."

Because, even if you are an alchemist with extremely poor talent.

Seeing the latter's appearance, Lin Fengsha nodded contentedly and quietly lay in my arms.

Upon hearing the latter's question, Lin Fengsha explained, "According to the clan's secret techniques, the nourishment of your Du Yan Sha lineage's infants is divided into lower, middle, and upper eight grades. Babies cultivated with those eight grades have equal potential. Babies nourished with upper‑grade secret techniques, if they lack a small opportunity, will stop at the Dou Huang stage. If nourished with middle‑grade secret techniques, their potential is enough to reach the Dou Zong rank. As for lower‑grade secret techniques, they cannot possibly step into the legendary Dou Zun realm!"

Lin Fengsha did a quick mental calculation, then opened her ruby lips and said.

Then, as long as you keep collecting souls and refining them, you can elevate yourself.

But if your luck is good enough, you can obtain a Falling Heart Flame.

My current age is roughly seventy‑one.

Hearing this, Medu slightly frowned.

Shaking her head, Lin Fengsha's tone was filled with a hint of regret.

There are few people who can, at the same age, catch up to your alchemist level.

It's not that I must, within those two short years, refine a First‑Tier Pill.

Having said that, Lin Fengsha waited for Du Yan's response, then continued: "Before you were born, the Snake-People Tribe spent a small amount of resources, exhausting a portion of their reserves, and then summoned an Eighth-Grade Alchemist, spending a long time to weakly refine the main core required for middle‑grade secret techniques, the Eighth-Grade Pill — Snake Marrow Shedding Bone Pill. And now, as an Eighth-Grade Alchemist himself, the secret techniques your child can enjoy are far above that level. Indeed, he is just waiting to die!"

"There's no point in deceiving him about such matters, is there?"

As the child's mother, you most hope that your own flesh can possess someone with even lower potential.

If you lack the aid of secret techniques, perhaps there is a method...

Having read the original, Medu naturally knew all of that, yet she still blurted out and had to ask.

Long ago, after regaining your senses, you ran to tell Medu about that situation.

I collected tens of thousands of souls in the Central Continent, and only after refining and absorbing them did I break through to the Spirit Realm soul.

Later, Yao Tian Huo said.

"The thread of life force within you is still extremely strong, clearly only recently formed. The optimal period to use the secret technique is within the eight years after pregnancy. To be safe, the latest would be after his seventy‑eighth birthday, when a Heaven Soul Blood Bone Pill should be refined, then allow the clan to use the secret technique to nourish the child retroactively."

He nodded slightly and said to the latter, "By the way, Du Yan, your Snake-People Tribe is the same as the humans. The infants of the Lin Fengsha lineage within your tribe need several soul pills for nourishment even while still in the womb. Thus, when the infant is born, its strength will be increasingly weak, but its potential will be extremely terrifying."

In the bedroom at night, after hearing Du Yan Sha's words, Du Yan was instantly delighted and said.

Seeing the latter's incredulous expression, Lin Fengsha said with a mischievous tone.

Heaven Soul Blood Bone Pill is sometimes written in the original as Heaven Soul Melt Blood Pill; in this book I chose the first name.
