Chapter 201: A Transaction?

All along, Ao Yifan has been utterly confused about his own path of cultivation.

To be honest, although his cultivation foundation is solid, he merely passively receives cultivation and lacks a deep understanding.

Therefore, after reaching the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, Ao Yifan's future path is completely dark to him.

All he can do is keep having children to increase his cultivation.

After all, having deep cultivation is never a bad thing.

And today, after helping Golden Spirit Holy Mother conceive a child in the spirit of helping others, Ao Yifan finally saw his future path clearly.

The Great Dao of Reproduction!

Exactly, Ao Yifan's path, put bluntly, is simply having children.

The more children he has, the firmer the foundation of his Dao becomes.

Moreover, this Dao has many wonderful aspects.

One of them is that Ao Yifan can concentrate his children's power within himself, meaning he can use all of their abilities!

Of course, it's not only Ao Yifan who can draw on his children's power; his children can also borrow his power.

Of course, unlike Ao Yifan, who can directly mobilize his children's power, for a child to borrow his power they must sincerely chant a spell; afterward, Ao Yifan will sense it and decide whether to lend power and how much.

Of course, the current Ao Yifan has only just begun to probe the Great Dao of Reproduction, and his grasp of these two abilities is merely superficial.

But still, the saying holds: the more children he has, the stronger his power.

Therefore, to fulfill his great Dao, Ao Yifan has also resolved: life endless, battle unceasing!

The Three Realm Treasure Car that burst forth from Golden Spirit Holy Mother's body is also quite extraordinary.

Possessing this treasure car means you can travel freely through the Three Realms; even the mysterious Netherworld Underworld will pose no obstacle for Ao Yifan!

Just then, Golden Spirit Holy Mother, having regained her composure, sat up from Ao Yifan's embrace.

With a wave of her right hand, her clothing appeared on her body.

"You, are you just going to leave like this?"

Ao Yifan looked at Golden Spirit Holy Mother and asked.

Hearing this, Golden Spirit Holy Mother thought for a moment, then flipped her hand; the next instant, Ao Yifan saw that she now held a long sword.

"What is this?"

Looking at the long sword in Golden Spirit Holy Mother's hand, Ao Yifan immediately recognized it as a fairly good-quality magic artifact.

Facing Ao Yifan's question, Golden Spirit Holy Mother said matter-of-factly: "This is your payment?"

"Payment?"

This left Ao Yifan truly dumbfounded.

"What the heck?"

"When did this turn into such a situation?"

"I was doing a good deed, returning a favor—when did it become a transaction?"

Seeing Ao Yifan's reaction, Golden Spirit Holy Mother's face showed a hint of embarrassment.

"I know this magic artifact is rather ordinary, but I don't have many spiritual treasures left; I still need to give one to Junior Martial Sister Qiong Xiao as payment for this matter, so..."

Before Golden Spirit Holy Mother could finish, Ao Yifan interrupted: "Wait, wait, just a moment—you just said the payment for Qiong Xiao, how does this involve her?"

Golden Spirit Holy Mother, even more puzzled, then explained how she had introduced Immortal Maiden Qiong Xiao to herself, who came to ask Ao Yifan for a child and demanded a spiritual treasure as payment.

"This..."

In an instant, Ao Yifan felt he had perhaps underestimated Immortal Maiden Qiong Xiao.

"What is this?"

"An immortal's version of spending heavily to seek a child?"

The key is, Immortal Maiden Qiong Xiao's appetite is too great—she actually demands a spiritual treasure in one go.

Ao Yifan kept feeling, how did he end up losing out?

"Oh dear, is it over?"

Just then, Immortal Maiden Qiong Xiao finally pushed the door open from outside, stepped forward, grabbed Golden Spirit Holy Mother's arm, and said: "Golden Spirit Senior Sister, the baby's conceived, right? Come on, let's go find my elder sister—she's skilled at delivering babies!"

Having said that, Immortal Maiden Qiong Xiao glared at Ao Yifan, seemingly warning him not to say more, then she led the still-confused Golden Spirit Holy Mother away.

"This woman, kind of interesting!"

Watching the two leave, Ao Yifan narrowed his eyes and curled the corner of his mouth into an inscrutable smile.

"Am I the type who suffers losses?"

"Next time Immortal Maiden Qiong Xiao brings someone, I definitely won't be so easy to talk to."

"At least, if you want me to exert myself, one magic artifact isn't enough!"

Ao Yifan muttered, waved his hand, and put away the flying sword still retaining residual warmth.

Although this flying sword is quite ordinary for Ao Yifan, even a mosquito's leg is still meat—he cannot afford to waste it.

……

"Elder sister, hurry up and act!"

Immortal Maiden Qiong Xiao urged.

Meanwhile, off to the side, Yun Xiao Xianzi, who had been staring dumbfounded at Golden Spirit Holy Mother, turned and glared at Immortal Maiden Qiong Xiao.

She never expected that, with just a moment's inattention, her younger sister could pull off such an absurd act.

"Introducing a heavenly maiden to go have children with Ao Yifan—is that appropriate?"

"If their master found out, they might very well punish this younger sister."

Turning her head, Yun Xiao Xianzi looked at Golden Spirit Holy Mother with a complex expression and asked: "Golden Spirit Senior Sister, why are you also going crazy with this girl?"

She shook her head slightly and Golden Spirit Holy Mother said: "There's no way; my cultivation hasn't progressed in many years—I really, truly want to advance!"

「Moreover, I have a premonition that this calamity, I might not be able to survive it, so I must use every means to increase my strength! 」

「This……」

Looking at the determined Golden Spirit Holy Mother, the Cloud Heavens Immortal Maiden didn't know what to say for a moment.

Although this matter is absurd, this is indeed a hope of the Golden Spirit Holy Mother.

「Ah……」

A long sigh was let out, and in the next moment, only seeing the Cloud Heavens Immortal Maiden wave her right hand, the Primordial Golden Dipper flew up.

Rosy light showered down, shining on the Golden Spirit Holy Mother's slightly bulging belly.

Not long after, the sound of a baby's wailing was heard.

「This, it's actually true! 」

In the next moment, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother felt a large amount of spiritual energy pouring into her body, causing her cultivation, which had been stagnant for who knows how many tens of thousands of years, to begin rising rapidly.

「Four Symbols Pagoda, appear! 」

Accompanied by a clear shout, an ancient, heavy pagoda engraved with exquisite patterns of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise flew out from above the Golden Spirit Holy Mother's head.

「Sever Three Corpses! 」

In the field, the Three Heavens Immortal Maidens, being knowledgeable, could see at a glance what the Golden Spirit Holy Mother was about to do.

She actually prepared to sever her final self-corpse right then!

「Can it succeed? 」

The Cloud Heavens Immortal Maiden watched as the Golden Spirit Holy Mother's body flickered, a second shadow faintly appearing, and couldn't help but mutter to herself.

If this could truly succeed, for the Golden Spirit Holy Mother it would absolutely be a good thing.

「Big sister, quickly help wash the child's body, she's been crying for a long time! 」

At that moment, the Azure Heavens Immortal Maiden beside her reminded.

It turned out that everyone's attention had been captured by the scene of the Golden Spirit Holy Mother severing the three corpses, completely forgetting that there was a newborn baby in the air, still wailing loudly there.
