Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Chapter 1162 Invincible Road

"Congratulations, host, on obtaining an offspring. Reward: Low-grade Immortal Artifact, Shattering God Sword."

Upon hearing the system notification, Lu Chen was slightly taken aback, and then quickly opened the system interface.

A celestial artifact? Another celestial artifact?

If the people of this universe can't even break the barrier created by the Immortal Umbrella, then wouldn't the Immortal Artifacts be even more difficult to break?

Thinking of this, Lu Chen's lips curled up slightly.

The Immortal Umbrella is a defensive immortal artifact, while the Shattering God Sword is an offensive immortal artifact. If defensive immortal artifacts can withstand the attacks of a ninth-level Great Emperor, then wouldn't offensive immortal artifacts also be able to injure a ninth-level Great Emperor?

He had been worried about not being able to deal with a Great Emperor at the Ninth Level, but he didn't expect to find a solution so quickly.

Seeing Lu Chen staring at her with a mischievous grin, Empress Tianhong frowned slightly. For some reason, she had a feeling that Lu Chen was up to something bad again.

However, the thought that her child would be born as a quasi-emperor still filled Empress Tianhong with a sense of pride.

Although this child was quite restless in her womb, which prevented her strength from increasing, the child is so promising after birth, and will surely achieve extraordinary things in the future, perhaps even surpassing the villain in front of her.

Even if she never escapes Lu Chen's control, once she grows up, she can have this child support her.

Thinking of this, Empress Tianhong said, "I can leave a clone of myself by his side."

Since she wanted her child to support her, the bond between them had to be strong, so she kept her child by her side when he was young.

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled. He had guessed from the beginning that Empress Tianhong would say this.

Empress Tianhong is a restless person. As a ruthless emperor, it is unlikely that her true form would stay at home taking care of her child all the time.

Seeing that Lu Chen remained silent, Empress Tianhong assumed that Lu Chen was still going to object, and then said, "This is my final bottom line. If you are unwilling, then let it go."

Lu Chen smiled and said, "If I really didn't want to, I don't think you could just abandon the child and leave, could you?"

Hearing this, Empress Tianhong hesitated, realizing that it was true. If Lu Chen didn't speak up, she would have to stay at home taking care of her baby, since the spirit contract between her and Lu Chen was still in place.

The thought of this spirit contract filled Empress Tianhong with hatred. How did she end up becoming a spirit in the first place? If it weren't for her becoming the spirit of the Flying Rainbow Immortal Boat, she wouldn't be so easily manipulated by this man now.

However, if she hadn't become the spirit of the Flying Rainbow Immortal Boat, her soul would probably have dissipated long ago, and this man wouldn't have been able to revive her.

Forget about it, anyway, her main body is determined not to stay at home and nurse the baby any longer.

Seeing Empress Tianhong's face grow increasingly cold, Lu Chen simply smiled faintly and said, "How could I possibly do that? Don't worry, once the child is a month old, your main body can do whatever you want."

Upon hearing this, Empress Tianhong looked at Lu Chen with suspicion. Why had this person suddenly become so easy to talk to?

Lu Chen continued, "The Great Xia Dynasty's starships have entered the Lingzhao Super Star Cluster. You'll have your chance to really show your skills."

Lu Chen didn't believe that the dynasties within the Lingzhao Super Star Domain would surrender as readily as the Dongyang Dynasty.

There will always be some tough nuts to crack, and war will be inevitable. This is perfect for Empress Tianhong to deal with, since she needs to accumulate killing power anyway.

Hearing Lu Chen say this, Empress Tianhong felt somewhat displeased. Although killing was a good thing for her, Lu Chen's decision to have her enter the Lingzhao Super Star Domain Group at this time gave her the feeling that he was using her as a tool, and she did not want to be Lu Chen's tool.

Just then, Lu Chen suddenly thought of something and said, "Alright, let's hurry up and choose a name for the child."

At this point, Lu Chen looked into Empress Tianhong's eyes and asked, "Will you come and collect it, or should I?"

Without any hesitation, Empress Tianhong uttered a name: "Lu Wudi".

Hearing this, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment.

Ah!

Invincible?

Empress Tianhong really dares to choose any name. This isn't Earth. If it were Earth, choosing a name like "Invincible" would just make people think you're a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur).

However, in this fantasy universe, choosing such a name will inevitably attract the hostility of some powerful beings. The path of cultivation lies in "struggle"—struggle for fortune, for treasures, and for opportunities.

By adopting the title of "Invincible," you are, to some extent, taking away the luck of others.

Of course, that's not the point. The point is that this universe has various kinds of fundamental laws. Would the fundamental laws of this universe really allow a name like "invincible" to exist?

Just as Lu Chen was thinking this, he suddenly discovered that the fortune of the Great Xia Dynasty was surging. Lu Chen was stunned when he felt the surge in fortune.

The War Dragon Army is currently in the Dongyang Dynasty and has not annexed any other dynasties, so how come its fortune has suddenly increased so much?

etc-

Could it be...?

Lu Chen suddenly thought of something and looked at Lu Wudi, who had just been named.

To confirm his guess, Lu Chen released his divine sense and once again probed the situation within the Great Xia Dynasty's territory. Indeed, nothing else had happened within the Great Xia Dynasty that could increase the dynasty's fortune.

In other words, it's highly likely that the name "Lu Wudi" had an effect?

Well, this name is probably actually quite suitable for his child.

But then again, if his own son is already invincible, wouldn't Lu Wudi grow up to be even more powerful than his father?

Thinking of this, Lu Chen smiled. Why did he think so much? If his son wanted to be more powerful than him, he would have to have a system too.

Lu Chen then used his divine sense to examine Lu Wudi's body again. In addition to exuding a strong killing power, Lu Wudi also possessed a very strong aura of luck.

Of course, no matter how strong one's luck is, it's impossible to catch up with Lu Chen.

However, compared to Lu Chen's other children, Lu Wudi's luck is the strongest.

At the same time, Lu Chen noticed that Empress Tianhong's aura was also constantly rising, and her realm was breaking through one level after another.

Even Empress Tianhong was stunned by her own ever-increasing cultivation level. What was going on? Why was her cultivation level suddenly breaking through one after another?

Soon, Empress Tianhong reached the sixth level of the Great Emperor realm.

Seeing the intense killing power emanating from her, Empress Tianhong suddenly looked up and stared at Lu Chen. Now that her cultivation level was higher than Lu Chen's, could she... However, the moment this thought arose, the flames of revenge in Empress Tianhong's heart instantly vanished.

Even if her cultivation level is higher than Lu Chen's, she still has no way to deal with this villain. With that contract mark in place, as a spirit of the artifact, she has no way to harm Lu Chen.
