I've announced that I'm destined to have many children, and my father has bestowed upon me

Another three months passed.

The early autumn wind carried a hint of coolness, but it could not dispel the heavy, oppressive heat hanging over the Prince Wei's residence.

Inside the delivery room, heart-wrenching cries and the midwife's anxious urging could be heard intermittently, gripping the hearts of everyone outside the door.

Zhao Chen'an paced back and forth restlessly in the corridor.

His handsome face was filled with anxiety, and he would stop every now and then to look at the tightly closed door.

This is his first child.

Li Qingluan, Liu Ruoshuang, and Xiao Chuchu also stood by, their expressions equally tense, their palms damp with sweat.

"Husband, stop turning around and sit down to rest for a while."

Xiao Chuchu whispered a word of advice, handing over a cup of tea that had long since gone cold.

Zhao Chen'an couldn't sit still. He took the teacup, drank it all in one gulp, and started pacing again.

Time slipped away bit by bit amidst the torment.

Just when Zhao Chen'an felt he was about to step through the floor tiles.

"Wow--!"

A loud and clear baby's cry, like heavenly music, suddenly rang out from the delivery room!

The deathly silence of the entire courtyard was instantly shattered!

Zhao Chen'an suddenly stopped in his tracks, frozen in place.

Immediately, an indescribable surge of joy welled up in his heart, leaving him somewhat dazed.

gave birth!

He's a father!

Almost simultaneously, that incredibly familiar mechanical voice exploded in his mind.

[Congratulations, host, on the birth of your child! We are currently conducting a comprehensive aptitude assessment...]

[Rating complete!]

[Overall evaluation of offspring: 96 points!]

[Talent: 95]

[Potential: 100]

[Special Bloodline: Sirius Bloodline (Concentration 80%)]

[Note: Due to triggering a prerequisite system reward, this offspring will receive one of the random innate Dao bodies... Random selection in progress...]

[Congratulations! This offspring has acquired one of the Ten Innate Dao Bodies: the Nine Heavens Thunder Body!]

The moment the system notification sound faded, something unexpected happened!

The once clear and cloudless sky has now become covered with dark clouds.

Dark, heavy clouds gathered frantically, pressing down heavily on the imperial city as if the sky were collapsing.

"Boom!"

A thick, purple divine lightning bolt, as thick as a bucket, tore through the sky, carrying a terrifying aura of destruction, and crashed down directly towards the direction of the Prince of Wei's mansion!

"not good!"

"Protect the delivery room!"

Li Qingluan and Liu Ruoshuang exclaimed in surprise at the same time, instinctively trying to circulate their spiritual power.

Xiao Chuchu paled, she could sense it.

The power contained in those nine divine lightning bolts was enough to instantly wipe them all out, along with the entire Wei Prince's Mansion!

However, they were ultimately a step too slow.

Or rather, someone is faster than them.

Just as the divine thunder from the heavens was about to strike.

The dark stone that Zhao Chen'an had always kept close to his body suddenly burst out with a scorching heat!

Whoosh!

The black stone flew out on its own, transforming into a streak of light. Instead of retreating, it advanced, actually taking the initiative to meet the divine lightning descending from the sky!

Under the astonished gaze of everyone, that ordinary-looking stone...

Like a bottomless black hole, it swallowed up all the divine lightning from the heavens, which was powerful enough to destroy everything!

Not a drop was wasted!

After absorbing the divine lightning, the dark stone shone with a brilliant purple light, and countless cracks appeared on its surface.

"Snap!"

The stone shattered instantly, turning into dust.

A wisp of purple spiritual lightning, more profound and terrifying, fused with the power of two types of lightning, emerged from it.

It nimbly turned in the air without pausing, and went straight through the roof and into the delivery room!

The next moment, the loud baby's cry became even more powerful and full of vitality!

All the strange phenomena in the heavens and earth vanished at that moment.

The sky cleared up again, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

Inside the Prince of Wei's residence, however, there was an eerie silence.

Li Qingluan, Liu Ruoshuang, and Xiao Chuchu stood there dumbfounded, their mouths agape, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

What did they see?

Is the thunder from the sky a celebration of new life?

This...this is such an incredible talent!

Not far away, in the shadow of a pavilion, Mo Yuqing's figure quietly emerged.

For the first time, a look of emotion appeared on her face, which had been frozen for millennia.

"Nine Heavens Thunder Body... naturally able to draw upon divine thunder to temper the body, and then merge with a spiritual thunder of heaven and earth..."

"This child...possesses the makings of a great emperor!"

Meanwhile, at the other end of the imperial city, a figure dressed in a dragon robe stood with his hands behind his back, gazing in the direction of the Prince of Wei's residence, his body trembling slightly with excitement.

Zhao Daoting laughed loudly, his laughter filled with boundless joy and pride.

"Good! Good! Good! My son, the prodigy of the Zhao family, is destined for the Great Zhou!"

However, none of this shock could compare to the turbulent emotions surging within Zhao Chen'an's heart at this moment.

[Offspring's aptitude score detected: 96, far exceeding the excellent threshold, triggering a 100x bonus!]

[For this reward, the host can freely choose the type of reward (cultivation techniques, martial arts skills, magical artifacts, physical constitution enhancement, elixirs, etc.)]

coming!

finally come!

Zhao Chen'an's heart was pounding wildly, almost as if it would jump out of his throat.

He had waited for this day for far too long!

Cultivation techniques? He possesses the Heavenly Rank Dao Tianyan Scripture.

Martial arts? He possesses the Heavenly-grade Great Wilderness Imprisoning Heaven Finger.

Magical artifacts? Isn't the Nine Dragons Demon Halberd in his father's hands more appealing?

What does he lack most?

It is the foundation that can bear all of this! It is a body that can be cultivated!

"Physical constitution! I choose a physical constitution-related reward!"

Zhao Chen'an roared in his heart with all his might.

[Confirm selection! Drawing a 100x critical hit reward for constitution-related characters...]

[Congratulations, host! You have obtained one of the eight immortal bodies: the Returning to Origin Dao Body!]

[The Returning to Origin Great Dao Body: All laws return to their origin, directly pointing to the source of the Great Dao. Possessing this body, cultivation will have no bottlenecks, leading directly to the Saint Realm! It can accommodate and cultivate any attribute cultivation method in the world without any worries of conflict!]

boom!

The moment the system notification sound ended, an indescribable warm current appeared out of nowhere throughout Zhao Chen'an's body.

It is a transformation originating from the deepest part of life.

His sea of ​​suffering, which was like a stagnant pool that could not be opened no matter what, was as if a sun had been thrown into it at this moment!

The dried-up riverbed was filled with surging divine power, and the blocked meridians were violently broken open!

An unprecedented feeling of comfort spread throughout my body!

Zhao Chen'an slowly raised his hand, and he could clearly "see" the colorful spiritual energy in the world.

It was transforming into visible streams, rushing into his body in a frenzy.

The whole world, in his perception, instantly changed.

Finally, I've shaken off that useless talent that prevents me from escaping the sea of ​​suffering!

Zhao Chen'an, you can start cultivating now!

Wow~

A clear, sobbing sound rang out.

Zhao Chen'an had no time to be excited and hurriedly led the three women into the delivery room.

At the same time, the trembling midwife, holding a small baby, excitedly said to Zhao Chen'an:

"Your Highness, Prince Wei, great joy!"

"It's a boy!"
