2142 Are they about to be born?

The black-skinned Soft Feather turned her head around. As an inner demon, she instinctively avoided the gaze of the nascent soul.

A nascent soul would be born when a practitioner ascended from the Sixth to the Seventh Stage.

Under normal circumstances, a practitioner’s nascent soul would open its eyes twice during its existence. The first time was when the practitioner reached the peak of the Sixth Stage Realm and triggered the heavenly tribulation.

Once the nascent soul opened its eyes, the heavenly tribulation would strike down.

Then, if the practitioner successfully transcended their tribulation, the nascent soul would close its eyes again and enter a state of energy accumulation.

It would not open its eyes again until the practitioner reached the peak of the Seventh Stage Realm and entered the Heavenly Tribulation Realm. The nascent soul would then burst out with all its accumulated energy, advancing to a higher realm and starting the next round of evolution.

The gaze of the nascent soul when it opened its eyes had the power to destroy all kinds of evils. That was why Soft Feather’s inner demon felt uncomfortable.

Golden Core – Spirit Lake – Nascent Soul, these three realms were part of a cycle.

It was similar to Song Shuhang’s evolutionary cycle that consisted of [little bug that is difficult to pinch to death – big sleeping bug that everyone loves – mammal that is difficult to crush to death].

Anyway, once a practitioner entered the Eighth Stage, they would enter a new evolutionary cycle. That was why they were so special compared to Seventh Stage Venerables and could show their divinity and hold a Profound Sage Speech.

The black-skinned Soft Feather moved to the side and said, “Something bad happened. The nascent soul in Senior Song’s belly has opened its eyes.”

If a nascent soul opened its eyes, it meant that the heavenly tribulation was coming.

Even if this nascent soul was one of the many in Song Shuhang’s small dantians, it was still a genuine nascent soul.

“How could they open their eyes at this time?!” Pavilion Master Chu’s strand of hair hastily turned around.

Song Shuhang was under the effect of the time technique, and his consciousness was not in his body. How was he to transcend his heavenly tribulation?

Moreover, if the heavenly tribulation came at this time, it might interfere with the time technique, causing the magical technique to backfire. The backlash from a magical technique that had been arranged by a Wielder of the Will could definitely kill Song Shuhang.

Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet said in a deep voice, “There is no need to worry. We are in a secret realm left behind by my master. Even if his heavenly tribulation is drawn over, it’ll take some time before it reaches us.”

Moreover, from what it could remember, if the heavenly tribulation was too powerful, it could scatter it, giving Song Shuhang more time to prepare.

In the past, when practitioners transcended the heavenly tribulation, they would be guarded by their elders or seniors. In addition to protecting the practitioner from external interferences, these guardians could also take action to scatter the heavenly tribulation at critical times.

Therefore, Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet was very calm as it continued, “I will keep an eye on the heavenly tribulation in the outside world. You guys pay attention to little friend Song’s status.”

The black-skinned Soft Feather asked, “By the way, why did Senior Song suddenly advance?”

“I suspect it’s related to the white balls that the fat whale swallowed earlier.” The stone tablet thought for a while and then said, “Fairy Soft Feather, please pay attention to the state of the little girl from the Su family next to me. I’ve got a bad feeling about this whole thing.”

The black-skinned Soft Feather said, “Senior Chu, come here.”

Her body was that of an inner demon. If Sixteen were to advance, it would be inconvenient for her to make contact with her as that may draw out the inner demons in Sixteen’s heart and create trouble for her as she transcended her tribulation.

The black-skinned Soft Feather was not only very understanding but also kind.

Pavilion Master Chu’s hair extended and got under Sixteen’s clothes, touching her belly.

Perhaps because Pavilion Master Chu’s hair was a little cold, Sixteen’s body twitched slightly when it touched her.

“Her nine immortal bones have been perfectly integrated into the illusory core. At the same time, there are a series of energies, such as the light of virtue, the power from the blessing of her clan, and dragon power that are buffing her illusory core and assisting her in condensing a golden core. They will also help her in condensing more dragon patterns.” Pavilion Master Chu’s strand of hair assessed Sixteen’s situation.

As the stone tablet had guessed, Sixteen was also about to transcend her tribulation.

In her dantian, there were three small white balls floating up and down, releasing the power of time and an aura of “luck.”

Things like luck were not noticeable under normal circumstances, but the aura of some things was often associated with luck.

One such example was dragon veins.

And at this moment, an aura similar to those of a dragon vein was being released from the small dumplings in Sixteen’s dantian.

With these three small dumplings, when Sixteen condensed her golden core, the number of her dragon patterns would likely approach the upper limit.

For example, with Sixteen’s strength, the number of dragon patterns that she could condense was probably either 8 or 9. But now, with the blessing of the white dumplings, the number of dragon patterns would be maximized, allowing her to condense nine dragon patterns.

Pavilion Master Chu said, “These white dumplings are incredible.”

I wonder what their origins are and how they were formed.

If I can retrieve some, I would definitely be able to sell them for a lot of money in the world of cultivation.

However, it’s not like I’m short of money. Pavilion Master Chu chuckled and stopped thinking about it.

“In other words, Sixteen is going to transcend the tribulation too…” The black-skinned Soft Feather rubbed her temples and looked at Song Shuhang.

Can Senior Song really never go through a normal heavenly tribulation?

“Your tears~ Sadness among your gentleness~” Fairy Creation hummed a little tune and reached out to stroke Song Shuhang’s left eye socket.

Then, another jewel-like eye was plucked out.

Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet shouted hastily, “Wait! Little friend Song is no longer regrowing his body parts. If you pluck out his eyes now, they won’t grow back in time.”

Fairy Creation had become extremely proficient in taking out eyes, and she was kind of addicted to it.

Fairy Creation grinned and stretched out her hand to put the Scholarly Sage’s eye back inside Shuhang’s eye socket. It was common sense to equip the best items when you were going to transcend the heavenly tribulation.

This was their daily routine now, and only a newcomer like Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet did not know about it.

After installing the Sage’s eye in Song Shuhang’s eye socket, Fairy Creation pointed at his abdomen.

The second nascent soul slowly opened its eyes.

This gave rise to a chain reaction, and the other little nascent souls opened their eyes as well.

The nascent souls were wrapped in a large “cocoon” formed by the water of the spirit lake, and they looked at the world curiously after opening their eyes.

They then stretched out their arms and started swimming around in their cocoons.

The seven little nascent souls looked like real babies.

Fellow Daoist Stone Tablet had never seen such lively nascent souls during the course of its life.

After swimming around for a while, they stopped moving and leaned against the walls of the cocoons.

They did not intend to come out yet.

“So cute.” The black-skinned Soft Feather carefully avoided the eyes of the nascent souls, observing them from the side. “Are they about to be born?”

“It would become a thriller if that were the case,” Pavilion Master Chu said.

As soon as Pavilion Master Chu finished speaking, a scene straight from a thriller ensued.

The umbilical cords of the seven nascent souls pierced through their respective cocoons and stretched out…
