Chapter 125: My Son, the Talent of Heaven and Man

~14 min read 2,777 words

At this moment, Gu Jiangming was likewise counting the talents of this offspring of his.

【Born with Omens】, 【Innate Proud Bones】, 【Heart of an Innocent】, 【Qilin Divine Blood】, 【Sword Dao Supreme】.

These 【Innate Proud Bones】 and 【Heart of an Innocent】 were inherited from Gu Jiangming.

【Born with Omens】 was an additional Golden Word randomly drawn from the Many Children Many Blessings effect in this 【Reincarnation Simulation】.

As for 【Sword Dao Supreme】, it is unknown where this talent popped out from; it is possible it was also an additional talent drawn from Many Children Many Blessings.

And 【Qilin Divine Blood】 was likely a Golden Word mutated from Liu Moran.

Among them, 【Born with Omens】 is a transformative choice word; once the conditions are met, it will naturally undergo a metamorphosis.

It will transform into either 【One Thought Seeking Demon】 or 【Supreme of the Current Age】.

Setting aside the associated transformation effects brought by 【Born with Omens】, the effects of Gu Jiangming's own two exclusive words, 【Innate Proud Bones】 and 【Heart of an Innocent】, are nothing to sneeze at.

【Innate Proud Bones】 is the embodiment of extreme willpower; with 【Innate Proud Bones】, one naturally possesses a stubborn and resilient personality.

What kind of talent freak is this, anyway?

It was only after 【Heart of an Innocent】 that Gu Jiangming initially possessed the comprehension to perform epiphanies according to the effects he thought of and desired.

【Your only son, Gu Nianmo, born from your union with Liu Moran, appeared extraordinary from birth; he did not cry or fuss, but gazed at the outside world with curious eyes.】

This means that the constant value of his root bone talent, originally 100, no longer has an upper limit under the blessing of the Qilin Divine Blood.

If Gu Jiangming had obtained the 【Many Children Many Blessings】 word earlier, the few offspring from his previous reincarnations would likely have been equally terrifying existences.

Beneath the scratch, four brand-new characters appeared—【Qilin Divine Blood】.

Your root bone talent upper limit is removed.

The simplest line of text, the most brutal value, an utterly unsolvable mechanism.

His root bone talent is endless.

This word can be called a classic example of finding a glimmer of hope in a desperate situation; don't give 【Innate Proud Bones】 a chance—if you give it a chance, it can bring you back from the brink.

【Qilin Divine Blood: You possess extraordinary recovery abilities; every time you experience a life-or-death tribulation, you will receive a brand-new improvement, and whether it is cultivation or realm, it will far exceed what it was before.】

So that's it.

【This is the most suitable Golden Talent for Body Cultivation.】

At that time, the hidden effect of 【Never Drunk】 also triggered the double-trigger probability of the 【Heart of an Innocent】 word, causing the subsequent development to spiral directly out of control.

Even the fact that this iteration of the Yangji Fanyin Technique could evolve to such a degree under Gu Jiangming's cultivation actually relied to a great extent on the effects of 【Heart of an Innocent】.

Is it hacked?

Is it really hacked?

【And this is also the first life of Gu Nianmo.】

Because every time, Gu Jiangming inherits the talents and words obtained from the previous reincarnation, so much so that the start of every reincarnation will have varying degrees of change.

Not even a bit as strong as 【Many Children Many Blessings】!

Gu Jiangming found it hard to describe this feeling, and he didn't know if his son "pulling a gold" counted as gold, but in any case, this kid truly has the bearing of a Great Emperor.

Significantly boosting comprehension; in the previous hundreds of reincarnations, without obtaining 【Heart of an Innocent】, no matter how many ideas Gu Jiangming had, it was useless.

This is simply a pure protagonist template!

It's just missing the "parents both dead" trope.

【Heart of an Innocent】 goes without saying.

Gu Jiangming had thought his reasonable way to play this round was to raise his junior sister, but he didn't expect the real route was to raise a good son.

And the most unsolvable part is that 【Many Children Many Blessings】 doesn't just look at Gu Jiangming's talent, but also his wife's talent; that is to say, Liu Moran's talent ceiling also determines the talent ceiling of their son.

A scratch appeared over the four characters 【Born Demon Seed】.

This 【Many Children Many Blessings】 word is purely performing, purely showing off.

If not for the effect of 【Heart of an Innocent】, it would have been impossible for the 【Many Children Many Blessings】 word to appear at all.

He is not that kind of talent freak at all.

Every 【Reincarnation Simulation】 is actually changing.

Where would an ordinary person have the talent to cultivate such a technique to this realm? What is particularly outrageous is that 【Heart of an Innocent】 can allow this kind of technique to spawn a brand-new cultivation-style Golden Word.

【Innate Proud Bones】 can go stay cool on the side.

【Your root bone talent upper limit is removed.】

The plot will not unfold as expected.

What is the plan now?

【The negative effects caused by the Weakened state are greatly reduced.】

【Your base root bone increases by 20 points, your base strength increases by 5 points, your base agility increases by 5 points, your base movement technique increases by 5 points, your fist and palm talent increases by 5 points, your blade and spear talent increases by 5 points, your sword dao talent increases by 5 points, your hidden weapon talent increases by 5 points, your strange arts talent increases by 5 points, your comprehension increases by 12 points.】

No.

【Innate Proud Bones】 and 【Heart of an Innocent】, these two Golden Words, are both existences that Gu Jiangming says are fierce after using them.

On the screen.

【What is even more peculiar is that Qilin Divine Blood flows through his body; this originated from the Qilin Demon Blood on Liu Moran, but for some reason, after some mysterious harmonization, it was instead purified.】

Time to run!

I must protect the development of my good son; even if I die, I must let him live. Moreover, the effect of 【Born with Omens】 has already told Gu Jiangming that they will undoubtedly face pursuit from all sides, because the Qilin Divine Blood flowing in Gu Nianmo's body is very likely a type of talent that can be plundered.

【You realized that your son's talent is extraordinary, and the situation of omens descending from the heavens has already attracted the attention of the masses; you seize the little remaining time to apologize to the Buhei Grass (Wang Qinghe) in Wu Ren Gu, expressing the reason why you can no longer act as its protector.】

【But you feel bad in your heart, and therefore you also leave behind a technique.】

【And the name of this technique is—"Hundred Refinements to Immortality".】

【But it is not the original version of "Hundred Refinements to Immortality" by Yue Jin, but the "Hundred Refinements to Immortality" under your years of accumulation, constant improvement, and self-understanding and evolution.】

【Although the current grade of "Hundred Refinements to Immortality" is not high, it is already the only valuable thing you can take out right now.】

The "Hundred Refinements to Immortality," originally only of blue quality, has been elevated to the level of purple quality under the constant evolution and deduction of the character Gu Jiangming.

White quality cultivation arts are practically dime-a-dozen goods, the lowest of the low; blue quality cultivation arts are those that can make a name for themselves in the current world, being famous within a local region for a short period.

Purple quality is neither high nor low; it can become a sect's heritage, and if one is lucky, it remains extremely precious even when passed down to later generations.

Gold quality cultivation arts are enough to make one famous throughout the ages, and are at a level that is almost universally applicable in any era without poor results.

In fact, the comprehension of this lifetime of Gu Jiangming is not bad either; just the characteristic of being able to deduce cultivation arts and increase their grade can be called extraordinary comprehension.

And Gu Jiangming and Liu Moran are a perfect top-tier complement, pointing all the stronger aspects of both sides onto their son.

At this moment, Wang Qinghe, who is in the midst of taking human form, has long since focused her perspective on the movements over at Gu Jiangming's side.

Because

the effect brought by the trait "Natural Phenomenon" is a map-wide response.

Even in Wu Ren Gu, unable to move and still in a state of rigidity, Wang Qinghe received this prompt directly.

【"The True Ancestor Qilin is born, and will eventually regain control over the Central Plains."】

Generally speaking, the information Wang Qinghe can obtain in "Mie Changsheng" is limited to current information and information from the current region; if she had a faction or an intelligence organization, the amount of information she could acquire would expand, allowing her to obtain world-level information.

But this time, the sudden appearance of Gu Nianmo is a map-wide information "alert."

Wang Qinghe not only learned that Gu Jiangming has a romantic connection in this life, but also that Gu Jiangming has another offspring in this life; although she cannot recognize who this woman is, she feels an inexplicable hostility.

However, it is not just Wang Qinghe's gaze that is watching.

Jiu Jiu's gaze is likewise staring into the abyss.

To think there is some unknown hussy stealing chickens.

What is going on?

The screen stalls, and new information appears again.

【From this stage on, within every operation turn, Gu Jiangming and Liu Moran will be hunted to varying degrees until the time reaches seven years later.】

【While escaping the pursuit, Gu Jiangming leaves behind a cultivation art named "Hundred Refinements to Immortality" for you.】

【He expresses his deep apologies to you, and Gu Jiangming's stance toward you has increased.】

【In the current state of stance, any request you make of him, as long as it is not too unreasonable, he will agree to, because he considers himself to owe you a great favor.】

【On the seventh day after they left, you finally succeeded in taking human form and possess the space to move freely, and as soon as you landed, you gained the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Stage and are about to break through to the Spirit Transformation Stage.】

Wang Qinghe looks at her operation screen.

Then she looks at the requirements for the cultivation art "Hundred Refinements to Immortality."

According to the required conditions above, Wang Qinghe distributes the 100 free attribute points she has on hand, allocating 70 to Bone Structure and 30 to Comprehension.

The Bone Structure limit for spirits and monsters is 200 points, which is 100 points higher than the 100-point limit for the Human Race; of course, the Human Race is an existence that can break natural limits.

This Bone Structure limit is not a hard standard for the Human Race.

But for Wang Qinghe, who has taken human form as a spirit, perhaps this 200-point Bone Structure limit is her eternal ceiling.

【Your Bone Structure is outstanding, and the effect of practicing "Hundred Refinements to Immortality" is excellent; you soon break through the first level of practice.】

【Your ability to withstand attacks has increased, your Will has increased by 3 points, your Strength has increased by 3 points, and your Physique has increased by 3 points.】

【You sense that some people are constantly sweeping this area; they seem to be looking for something.】

【You have a bad premonition and decide to leave your place of transformation.】

【And at the same time, you are also inquiring about the situation in this world.】

On the other side of the screen.

Gu Jiangming and Liu Moran are avoiding the eyes of various parties, while Liu Moran is also investigating why these people are so desperate to find her son.

For Liu Moran, Gu Jiangming and Gu Nianmo are already her Reverse Scale; she will never allow anyone to make a move against the two of them. If they dare to come and snatch her son, she will risk falling into the demonic path, even if it means merging with her Demon Seed, to let these scumbags know what true, bone-chilling pain is.

By Liu Moran's ear, a familiar voice rings out.

【"It is truly wonderful."】

【"Never would I have imagined that the ancestral return of the divine blood, which the Qilin—one of the noble clans of the Demon Race—dream of, would appear on a human child."】

What?

It is actually divine blood ancestral return?

Liu Moran never expected it to be this kind of explanation.

She had once heard that the Demon Race has the phenomenon of ancestral return; once it occurs, the purity of the bloodline can reach its peak, appearing with the most prosperous talent among the same clan.

But the problem is, she and Gu Jiangming are both human.

【"Back then, our grandfather Liu Junru, self-appointed as the Flying General of Beidi, preserved the last breath of life for the Human Race and fought alone; he could even be called the last powerhouse of the Human Race capable of contending with the Demon Venerable."】

【"It is a pity that he encountered Zhou Kai of the Qilin Imperial bloodline, who was an existence that had truly stepped into the Ascension Realm, while most of the Human Race stopped at the Enlightenment Stage and found it difficult to break the shackles of cultivation."】

【"If it were not for the realm of Heaven and Earth Enlightenment, it would be impossible to contend with Zhou Kai at all, yet our grandfather was a brilliant talent; not only did he reach Heaven and Earth Enlightenment, he was also a Supreme of the Sword Dao. In a situation where the Sword Dao had a gap for three thousand years, only he realized a sword intent named 'Slaying Immortals'."】

【"It was precisely this heaven-shaking sword intent, combined with his Heaven and Earth Enlightenment cultivation, that severed one of Zhou Kai's arms. However, after that sword strike, our grandfather was also severely wounded. Rumor has it that Zhou Kai, thinking he was a hero, could not bear to take his life and let him fend for himself. As a result, with a strong will to survive, he drank the essence blood of the severed Qilin arm in his human body and luckily escaped the encirclement. Not long after, he believed he owed a debt of gratitude to the Qilin and went into seclusion, but in the end, due to the world's public condemnation, he had to come out of seclusion again, and unfortunately died in the War of Slaying Demons."】

【"The inheritance of Qilin essence blood in the bloodline of the Liu Family descendants comes precisely from this."】

【"But this inherited Qilin bloodline was never pure to begin with; to put it bluntly, it was a stolen bloodline. And after the bloodlines merged, it was even more of an inferior, defective product among Qilin bloodlines. To have divine blood ancestral return under these circumstances is simply a fantasy."】

【"Moreover, the Qilin Clan has a rule: among the Qilin, any Qilin who can achieve bloodline ancestral return and allow the True Ancestor talent to reappear, that person is the Lord of the Qilin."】

【"And now, the one with the bloodline ancestral return is a human, and the reappearance of the Qilin True Ancestor talent is also on a mortal."】

【"If the Qilin knew about this, they would likely be angered to death."】

【"However, the Qilin Divine Blood that emerges from ancestral return is indeed a good thing; it is an existence that can change a mortal's cultivation talent. In the current situation, if our son is caught, I fear he will not meet a good end."】

Now hearing her explain it this way, Liu Moran finally realizes why the Demon Seed thinks this matter is absurd.

This is no longer just a matter of being absurd; it is absurd to the extreme.

How is it that the Qilin true inheritance is on a human!

But looking at the words on the screen, Liu Moran always feels something is strange.

"No, he is not your son, he is my son." You emphasized this sentence with a cold face.

Right, right, right!

That is exactly the problem!

You shameless little bitch, living off my body to survive in this world, and you actually have the nerve to say that our son is your son?

How can you have the face to do so!
