Chapter 174: Gu Mingyue, the Correct Way to Use the Red Lotus Demon Venerable?

~15 min read 2,940 words

"Mingyue is about to be born..."

Merely by sensing the palpitation in his own heart, Gu Jiangming had already guessed that his and Jiu Jiu's daughter, Gu Mingyue, must also be about to be born in this era.

Gu Jiangming was unable to sense the territory where Jiu Jiu was located.

However, as the unborn Gu Mingyue was Gu Jiangming's own offspring, by following the entanglement of that bloodline, Gu Jiangming was naturally able to find the territory where Jiu Jiu was currently located.

Yet when Gu Jiangming regained his senses, he was stunned to discover that Jiu Jiu was actually in that villa from several years ago.

This villa was the place where Gu Jiangming and Jiu Jiu had confirmed their relationship in this era.

Gu Jiangming had never imagined that Jiu Jiu would choose to give birth to their offspring here.

Inside the villa, Jiu Jiu had already sensed something after Gu Jiangming arrived at the villa, and she also knew that her cultivation would inevitably be restricted after giving birth.

Furthermore, since the two offspring Gu Jiangming had previously sired in this era were both born with strange phenomena, Jiu Jiu had even set up countless arrays around the perimeter of the villa.

Looking at Jiu Jiu's appearance, she did not seem to have expected Gu Jiangming to come.

Inside the villa, Jiu Jiu's labor had reached the final critical point; even though Gu Mingyue had not yet truly been born in this era, at this moment, numerous phenomena were already evolving between Heaven and Earth.

Any existence at the Heaven and Earth Enlightenment realm could sense at this moment that miraculous principles were intertwining and rioting between Heaven and Earth.

If it were in the past, many great demons and Enlightened ones of this era might not have understood the reason for such a riot of Heaven and Earth phenomena.

But in this era, Gu Nianmo and Gu Shengxi, two beings born with strange phenomena, had already appeared in succession; they did not even need to calculate the Heaven and Earth to guess that another being born with strange phenomena was likely appearing in this era.

Above the nine heavens, a bright moon appeared in broad daylight.

That bright moon was suddenly hundreds of times larger, and when it appeared in the Heaven and Earth, it gave people a trance-like, extremely unreal sensation.

There were even countless living beings in this world looking at that moon, which was a hundred times brighter, terrified in their hearts that the moon might fall from the nine heavens into the human world, causing misery for the living beings of this world.

However, for those Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones, such a massive phenomenon instead brought joy to their hearts.

If one were to judge solely by the phenomenon, even the Human Emperor Supreme Gu Shengxi, who represented the destiny of a race, had never had such a massive phenomenon at birth.

In the eyes of those Enlightened powerhouses, the being born this time might have even greater aptitude than Gu Shengxi!

With such a massive phenomenon disturbing Heaven and Earth, naturally, some Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones wanted to investigate, and some even thought about seeing if the Opportunity on the newborn child who triggered this Heaven and Earth phenomenon could be plundered.

However, before they could set off, the next moment they felt a monstrous fire rolling up from the place where the phenomenon rose.

Above the firmament, illusory golden-red flames ignited the Void, faintly complementing that phenomenon.

Upon seeing those iconic golden-red flames, one could not know how many Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones were cursing in the dark.

The battle outside Niankong Villa had far-reaching consequences; it could even be said to have directly broken the backbone of the thousands of Demon Race in the world. Except for those in closed-door cultivation, who could not recognize that these golden-red flames were the divine ability of the Red Lotus Demon Venerable?

"Is this being that triggered the Heaven and Earth phenomenon another offspring of the Red Lotus Demon Venerable?"

"What exactly is the situation with that Red Lotus Demon Venerable? As long as it is his offspring, they can all trigger such Heaven and Earth phenomena?"

"One is a Qilin Divine Child who is not of the Qilin Clan, one is a Supreme manifestation carrying the destiny of a race, and now what is this?"

While those Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones were cursing in their hearts, they could only dispel the dark thoughts in their minds.

They had always seen from ancient records that the so-called Supreme was an invincible existence for an era; even the most stubborn ones could not remain stubborn after seeing the battle at Niankong Villa.

A single battle wiped out more than seventy Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones.

There were not even a thousand Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones in the entire world, and nearly one-tenth of them had been burned away by that fire from the Red Lotus Demon Venerable.

With such divine abilities and such a battle record, who among those Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones would dare to have any ideas?

"The strength of this Red Lotus Demon Venerable is not in his divine abilities, but in being his offspring, right?"

"Throughout history, in an era of forty-eight thousand years, it is already remarkable to have one Supreme Seed born."

"But this Red Lotus Demon Venerable has given birth to three offspring in a row, and each one of them stirs up such Heaven and Earth phenomena."

"Whether it is that Qilin Divine Child, that Human Supreme, or this third one whose aptitude is not yet clear, is the Supreme Realm that we struggle to pursue so easily attained for the offspring of this Red Lotus Demon Venerable?"

At this moment, there were countless Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones in the world whose hearts were unbalanced.

It was only because these Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones had lived long enough and their states of mind had been tempered to some extent; otherwise, such shocking things happening before their eyes would truly make one feel as if their Dao heart was about to shatter.

The Supreme Realm that we cannot attain through hard cultivation is merely a realm that a few children will inevitably reach in the future?

"Speaking of which, is that Red Lotus Demon Venerable still lacking women?"

"Which family's clan has such a heaven-gifted daughter?"

"If one could be favored by that Red Lotus Demon Venerable, could even an ordinary race give birth to such a heaven-gifted child?"

With the Red Lotus Demon Venerable protecting the path, even if those Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones had thoughts in their hearts, they only dared to hide them tightly.

But with so many thoughts gathered in one place, these Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones also gathered together after a long time.

Some familiar Enlightened powerhouses spoke some words of lament, while others were pondering whether there was an Opportunity to go and beg that Red Lotus Demon Venerable for a seed.

Now the circle of Enlightened powerhouses all knew that that Red Lotus Demon Venerable had at most eight hundred years left to live.

If they could beg for a seed from the Red Lotus Demon Venerable and let their own clan give birth to a heaven-gifted child who could trigger Heaven and Earth phenomena, eight hundred years later, they might be able to seize the heaven-gifted child of their own clan and thus catch a glimpse of the Supreme Realm.

"I, for one, do not believe that every offspring of that Red Lotus Demon Venerable will be such a heaven-gifted child who triggers celestial phenomena."

"You say the Red Lotus Demon Venerable is stronger than us, then we indeed admit it, but if you say the seed of the Red Lotus Demon Venerable is more extraordinary than us, I absolutely do not believe it."

Some Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones still did not believe that Gu Jiangming's seed really had such magic.

But even if he did not believe it, among these Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones gathered together, there were plenty of people willing to believe such things.

If something happens once or twice, one could say it was luck, but if there is a third...

Regardless of whether others believe it or not, among the eight hundred or so Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones gathered here, some were already preparing to investigate what kind of women the Red Lotus Demon Venerable liked.

Even if not for themselves, if a heaven-gifted child could be born among their own clan's descendants, and they could personally teach them, watch them grow, and exchange insights many times, perhaps they, these Heaven and Earth Enlightened ones, would also have the Opportunity to achieve the Supreme Realm? "The rise of the Human Race is already an irreversible trend!"

"Within eight hundred years, I presume no one would dare to provoke that Red Lotus Demon Venerable." "Eight hundred years later, the three children of that Red Lotus Demon Venerable should all be grown; achieving the Supreme Realm within a thousand years is not an impossible thing."

"I was previously in closed-door cultivation in the Human North Territory, and I have no greed for the Human Race; I even have ties with their Liu Family."

"That Red Lotus Demon Venerable is still reasonable; at least he didn't finish me off directly."

"I am also fortunate to be one of the few people here who has spoken to that Red Lotus Demon Venerable. I won't even talk about that Red Lotus Demon Venerable, let's just talk about that Qilin Divine Child."

"That Qilin Divine Child is only twenty-one years old, and his cultivation has already reached the mid-stage of Spirit Transformation."

"If it were merely this, that would be one thing, but that Kirin Divine Child has already grasped the Dao of Heaven and Earth at the mid-stage of Spirit Transformation; within a hundred years, that Kirin Divine Child might perhaps attain the Heaven and Earth Enlightenment Realm."

"Fight? We certainly cannot beat that one."

"We can't beat him now, and eight hundred years later, we might not be able to beat his son either."

"If you ask me, those of us who have no grudges with the Human Race might as well find a time to gather; when the time comes, we shall each bring the outstanding female descendants of our own clans to see if there is any possibility of forming a marriage alliance with that one."

Some were just paying lip service, but others had already begun to propagate their plans amidst those various thoughts.

It is unknown what kind of background this demon has, but listening to these words of theirs, it really does not sound like they are just talking; they are truly prepared to try out their ideas.

Especially after this Heaven and Earth Enlightenment expert spoke, dozens of the thoughts gathered between Heaven and Earth clearly converged toward it.

Looking at their appearance, they should truly be prepared to offer their own female descendants to the Red Lotus Demon Venerable.

Whether or not they are a heaven-gifted prodigy is not important; what is important is to establish a connection with the Gu Family of the Human Race.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the next forty-eight thousand, or even one hundred thousand years, will likely be the era of this Gu Family...

Perhaps if the Red Lotus Demon Venerable's offspring cultivate fast enough, these old immortals like them might even get to witness the spectacle of four Supremes existing in the same era?

Among the numerous thoughts in the sky, the old Dragon King was also mingling within them at this moment.

This scene of over eight hundred Heaven and Earth Enlightenment experts casting their thoughts to intertwine is something the old Dragon King has seen for the first time in all his long years of life.

He was initially drawn by the vision of the bright moon illuminating the world, and upon seeing so many Heaven and Earth Enlightenment thoughts intertwining, the old Dragon King was also happy to exchange ideas with these fellow practitioners.

It was just that what the old Dragon King did not expect was that these Heaven and Earth Enlightenment experts seemed to have no backbone.

How could they be talking and talking, and then suddenly prepare to offer up their own descendants? But then, thinking of the Red Lotus Demon Venerable's three offspring, the old Dragon King fell silent at this moment.

He was suddenly wondering, perhaps, if, supposing, he did not stop his own daughter, would it be time for the prodigies of their Dragon Race to be born?

The old Dragon King's mood was very complicated at this moment; on one side was his daughter, and on the other was the future of the Dragon Race. The old Dragon King just wanted to shout that he really could not tell which one he should choose! In the Kirin Clan's ancestral land, Zhou Kai also awakened.

However, at this moment, Zhou Kai looked at the bright moon vision visible throughout the Four Wilds and Eight Desolations in the sky, and he also fell silent.

After Gu Jiangming attained the Supreme realm, Zhou Kai had vaguely felt that the Kirin Bloodline combined with the aptitude of Gu Jiangming, who could attain the Supreme realm, was the reason for Gu Nianmo's birth.

But now, Zhou Kai suddenly could not tell anymore; he could not tell if Gu Jiangming's seed was truly more miraculous, or if it was just pure coincidence?

"Go and send a congratulatory gift to that one!"

"Not to mention anything else, he is also a Supreme; with a Supreme's offspring being born, the Kirin Clan must not lose its sense of propriety."

After Zhou Kai was silent for a long while, he finally managed to squeeze out these words.

Taicang Mountain.

"Daoist, you say, if we let Gu Jiangming marry a hundred wives, a thousand years later, will our Human Race have a hundred more Supremes?"

The Old Man Taicang was originally mingling among the thoughts of those Heaven and Earth Enlightenment experts, and when he saw many Heaven and Earth Enlightenment experts from various clans beginning to covet Gu Jiangming's seed, the Old Man Taicang also felt a bit tempted.

There was no way not to be tempted; have you not seen that every one of Gu Jiangming's offspring is extraordinary from birth?

If he could persuade Gu Jiangming to give birth to a hundred or eighty offspring, the Old Man Taicang could not imagine any possibility of the Human Race failing to rule the world.

Unless a true Immortal descends, otherwise, with a hundred or eighty Supremes appearing together, who in this world could stop them, who would dare to stop them? Even in the worst-case scenario, if only one in ten of Gu Jiangming's offspring had such aptitude, then letting Gu Jiangming marry a hundred wives would still produce ten or so Supremes! At this moment, the Old Man Taicang no longer cared about Gu Jiangming's Supreme strength.

One Supreme versus ten or a hundred Supremes—the Old Man Taicang could still distinguish this logic.

"I do not know if the Human Race will have a hundred more Supremes, but I do know that if you dare to do this, you will be beaten to death by that one from the Liu Family!"

"That one from the Liu Family has also reached a node; perhaps before long, she will cultivate to the perfection of Heaven and Earth Enlightenment."

"If you are truly not afraid of death, you can try it!"

The Longhu Mountain Daoist Master looked at the Old Man Taicang in front of him and just chuckled.

Even though he knew the Old Man Taicang was joking, the birth of Gu Mingyue really did make the Longhu Mountain Daoist Master's state of mind crack a little.

As for Liu Moran at this moment...

At this moment, Liu Moran was rushing toward the battlefield...

It was not just Liu Moran; when Gu Nianmo saw the vision of the bright moon illuminating the human world and the bright moon rising over the sea in the sky, a realization also arose in her heart that she might, perhaps, probably, be about to have another younger brother or sister.

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Nianmo also rushed toward the location of Gu Jiangming.

It was just that Gu Nianmo, having gone through trials, was no longer someone who understood nothing.

At the very least, Gu Nianmo now knew that for every additional younger brother or sister she had, there would also be an additional aunt.

And unfortunately, Gu Nianmo knew that her mother was very dissatisfied, extremely dissatisfied, with the existence of other aunts!

The reason Gu Nianmo rushed to Gu Jiangming's side was also to try to persuade her mother.

Since they are already born, then just accept this extra aunt! Even if she did not accept it, Gu Nianmo felt that she could not just watch her new younger brother or sister be born without a mother...

However, Gu Nianmo was also troubled; she already had a younger brother, and if possible, Gu Nianmo wanted a younger sister this time!

As for Gu Jiangming at this moment...

At this moment, Gu Jiangming was just anxiously waiting for the birth of his daughter Gu Mingyue; he had absolutely no idea that Liu Moran was already rushing toward him, filled with murderous intent.
