Chapter 280 Ziyang Gate
In the vast Qianyuan Continent, near the 'Sea of Falling Stars', there is an extremely prosperous immortal cultivation sect called the 'Zi Yang Sect'.
The Zi Yang Sect is a powerful sect that ranks among the top ten among the countless sects of practitioners in Qian Yuan Continent. In the entire sect, there are nearly a thousand people with the strength of six-tribulation loose immortals or above, and the number of ordinary practitioners is in the millions.
Moreover, the current leader of Ziyang Sect, Mingxu Zhenren, is an eleventh-rank immortal, and his strength ranks among the top among the countless practitioners in the entire Qianyuan Continent.
At this moment, outside an extremely quiet and unique pavilion on Taiyue Peak, the first of the nine peaks of Ziyang Sect, Taoist Mingxu was sitting in front of a stone table and chatting casually with an elegant middle-aged man in a black Taoist robe.
However, it was obvious that Zhenren Mingxu’s mind was not on the present. His eyes kept sweeping towards the exquisite pavilion, and his powerful spiritual awareness had already covered it.
On the bed in the pavilion, a beautiful woman with a gentle face was lying there. The woman's belly was bulging and her whole body was trembling slightly. It was obvious that she had entered the final stage of delivery.
"Master, Master Mingyu is at least a tenth-rank immortal. It's just childbirth, and there won't be any accidents. Why are you so nervous?"
Beside the stone table, the elegant middle-aged man couldn't help but smile as he looked at Master Mingxu.
Zhenren Mingxu looks to be about thirty years old, wearing a tall hat and a wide belt, with a pure and gentle temperament.
He listened to the elegant middle-aged man's joke, but he was not angry. He just shook his head and smiled:
"Haha, caring too much will lead to confusion, caring too much will lead to confusion"
The elegant middle-aged man also smiled and nodded:
"Haha, I can understand that. The Sect Master has been pestering Master Mingyu for tens of thousands of years, and now he has finally achieved his goal. Seeing that his little nephew is about to be born, it is normal for him to be nervous."
"You, what do you mean by clinging on? That's the test of time!"
Master Mingxu couldn't help but glare at him and said unhappily, "Xuan Yu, I see that you really have nothing to do recently. It just so happens that the people from the branch in Sanshanhai have discovered a relic that looks like a fairy palace. How about you go there in person?"
"Three mountains and seas?"
The elegant middle-aged man shook his head very straightforwardly, "No, no, what good things can there be in that corner? I guess the so-called 'immortal palace' is just an exaggeration by the disciples below. Immortal palace, how can it be so easy to find."
"You, you, even I can't make you do anything." Master Mingxu looked at him, his tone somewhat helpless, "Well, I'll let Xuanyun go for a while, but you can't just sit there idle. Dan Ge will double the tasks for the next ten years. If you fail to complete the tasks, you will go to the Dharma Hall to accept the punishment yourself."
The elegant middle-aged man was immediately anxious when he heard this: "Double it? Sect Master, let's not talk about whether the Dan Pavilion has enough manpower. Even the spiritual materials and herbs for refining pills, where can I get them? You, you, you are completely taking the opportunity to retaliate. Isn't it just a matter of pestering you that you are so angry! "
"If you keep talking, the price will double again."
Taoist Mingxu said slowly.
"You, me, this!"
The elegant middle-aged man moved his lips, but in the end he had no choice but to sigh and agree.
The two of them chatted casually outside the attic, and time passed very quickly.
Soon, according to Zhenren Mingxu's perception, Zhenren Mingyu's breath in the attic began to fluctuate violently, and it was obvious that she had reached the final stage of delivery.
"Giving birth?"
The two couldn't help but look at each other.
"After that incident, Junior Sister has been feeling guilty. I hope, I hope she won't be too sad later."
Zhenren Mingxu said silently in his heart.
And just as he was anxiously waiting, something strange happened above the entire Taiyue Peak!
"Chi~"
An extremely slender golden stream of light came from the sky in an instant, ignoring the Zi Yang Sect's numerous protective formations and instantly appeared above Taiyue Peak. Then, before Zhenren Mingxu and the elegant middle-aged man could react, it instantly disappeared into the attic next to it!
"Not good!" Zhenren Mingxu's whole body of immortal energy surged wildly, and his speed instantly soared to the extreme, and he rushed directly into the attic.
In order to avoid suspicion, the elegant middle-aged man did not enter directly, but quickly mobilized his immortal power and carefully guarded the door of the attic.
"Junior sister, are you okay? Did anything unexpected happen just now?"
In the attic, Master Mingxu spoke anxiously to the beautiful woman on the bed.
Seeing him come in, the two maids serving in front of the bed knelt down in panic to greet him.
"Senior brother."
The woman on the bed looked a little weak at this time.
In this world, the birth of life is the most mysterious and sacred thing. Even a powerful and accomplished cultivator will inevitably experience brief weakness when experiencing pregnancy and childbirth.
Of course, given the cultivator's powerful physique, this weakness will only last for a short time, and generally there will be no life-threatening danger.
"Brother, I'm fine."
The woman spoke, her weak voice still revealing endless gentleness.
"Brother, come and sense it."
The woman pointed to her belly.
"Ok?"
Zhenren Mingxu frowned slightly, but a ray of immortal consciousness directly probed into the woman's lower abdomen.
After just a slight sensation, a look of surprise appeared on Master Mingxu's face.
"Junior sister, what is this?"
The gentle woman, Mingyu Zhenren, nodded.
"Just now a golden light came from the sky, and then I sensed that the fetus's Qi, which was about to fall into silence, was slowly recovering. I think this must be the destiny of our child. Even God couldn't bear to let him leave us like this!"
"What, it's actually like this."
Master Mingxu couldn't help but be surprised.
He had heard of many cases where the birth of a fetus caused strange phenomena in heaven and earth, but he had never heard of anything so mysterious.
What outsiders don’t know is that his wife Mingyu Zhenren was ambushed by her enemies during a trip not long ago.
Although Master Mingyu managed to escape thanks to the desperate protection of several loyal guards, he was hit by a palm strike from the enemy.
The force of this palm invaded her body, and although it did not cause much harm to her, it caused great damage to the two fetuses in her belly. Even the life breath of the two fetuses began to dissipate.
Later, Master Mingxu and Master Mingyu tried all kinds of precious treasures and elixirs, but they were still unable to prevent the two fetuses from escaping.
Finally, with no other options left, Master Mingxu used a secret method similar to the devouring and parasitic method used by magic cultivators to extract the life breath of one of the fetuses and transfer it to the other, thus stabilizing the Qi of one of the fetuses.
However, the other fetus was already damaged, and a large amount of its life force had been drained away. Its own Qi had already weakened to the extreme, and before it was born, the Qi of this fetus could hardly be sensed.
However, at this moment, Master Mingxu actually felt it again - in Master Mingyu's abdomen, there were two extremely active life auras constantly fluctuating. Although the amplitude of the fluctuation of one of the auras was extremely weak, he could still sense it clearly!
"Is it really that God has mercy on me, Mingxu?"
