70: My Godly Father (Part 1)

Consciousness returned once again to the boundless darkness.

The image of being consumed by the Nine-Colored Divine Fire, with my Physical Body and Divine Soul burned to nothingness, still played repeatedly in my mind.

Just one step away.

Just that final step away, and he would have been able to completely refine the divine fire, repair his dao foundation, and even reach a higher Realm.

Endless regret and unwillingness flooded his entire consciousness like a tidal wave.

A cold, mechanical voice rang out at this moment.

【 Reincarnation Mark assessment in progress... 】

【 In this lifetime, you are named Si Yun. You possess the Heavenly Elixir Precious Body. In your childhood, you were adopted by a Pill King, and from then on, you formed a connection with a Sect known for its "simple and honest Sect style." In your youth, you befriended a brother who was suspected to be a child of destiny, but the good times did not last. Following your brother's disappearance, you were forced to travel far to the Western Desert. In the Western Desert, by a stroke of Opportunity, you became a disciple under a Pill God. You thought there was an ulterior motive, but they treated you with sincerity. Under the Pill God, you achieved success in your studies, returned to the Southern Border to demand an explanation from those people, and a major Sect was destroyed at your hands. After that, you continued to cultivate in seclusion, achieving the status of Great Pill Emperor in the Three-Yuan Realm, but you accidentally offended a figure who was a child of destiny. In the end, you were defeated again and left to linger in the Eastern Region. You lived in seclusion for decades. Finally, you decided to head to the Central Plains to seek a chance at survival, but you strayed into a forbidden land and discovered the Nine-Colored Divine Fire. You wished to refine the divine fire to repair your dao foundation and reach a higher Realm, but you fell short at the final hurdle; your dao foundation completely shattered, and your Physical Body was incinerated. 】

【 Comprehensive Evaluation: Earth-Grade Three-Star 】

【 Reincarnation Points gained: 8000 】

Si Yun's Divine Soul stirred slightly.

Although this lifetime was rough in the beginning, fortunately, in the Middle Stage, meeting a Revered Master like Divine Alchemist Mo made life quite comfortable.

If not for provoking such a child of destiny, this lifetime would likely have been a smooth ride.

" family background is still very important. "

" Luck is also a bit lacking. "

" Add points. "

【 Aptitude: 4000 】

【 family background: 2000 】

【 Comprehension Ability: 1000 】

【 Luck: 1000 】

This time, he distributed the points evenly between family background and Luck.

A flash of light passed, and his consciousness sank once more.

...

" Revered Master! Madam... Madam might not make it! "

A panicked scream came from outside.

Quan Batian was pacing anxiously in a dilapidated courtyard. Hearing this cry, his tall and burly frame shuddered, and his eyes turned blood-red instantly.

" What did you say?! "

He grabbed the maid who had rushed out to report the news.

" How can someone vomit blood while giving birth? "

Quan Batian's mind was in chaos, filled with extreme fear.

He released the maid and immediately rushed toward the inner courtyard.

With a loud "bang," the ornately decorated door was smashed to pieces by him.

A thick scent of blood rushed toward him.

Quan Batian saw the scene inside the room, his eyes splitting in anger.

His usually gentle wife was now lying on the bed with a deathly pale face, blood hanging from the corners of her mouth, and a pool of crimson red beneath her.

Several midwives and the physicians from the estate were gathered around the bed, all of them pale with fear, at a loss for what to do.

" What is going on! "

Quan Batian let out an angry roar, his powerful Aura making everyone in the room unable to catch their breath.

An elderly physician, enduring the pressure, stepped forward tremblingly to report.

" Revered Master... Madam... she was already heavily injured. By forcibly using the power of her Origin to induce labor now, the fetus in her womb is severely lacking in congenital vitality, and it is entirely relying on Madam's Origin essence blood to keep it alive... "

" This act... this act is no different from overdrawing her already dwindling life! "

Quan Batian's body began to tremble violently.

He rushed to the bedside, held his wife's cold hands, and his voice trembled.

" Zhuer?! Why! We don't need this child! Stop it now! "

On the bed, the woman with a fading Aura slowly opened her eyes. Looking at her husband's anxious face, she weakly shook her head.

" Batian... it's useless... "

Although her voice was weak, it was incomparably clear.

" Once this process begins, there is no turning back... "

" This is our child... We must... let him live... "

As these words fell, the Aura on her body weakened at an astonishing speed.

True God Realm Middle Stage...

True God Realm Early Stage...

...

Her cultivation was dropping at a speed visible to the naked eye.

" No!! "

Quan Batian let out a roar of despair toward the sky.

Just then, several powerful, hostile Auras suddenly descended over the estate.

A cold and mocking voice rang out, spreading in all directions.

" Quan Batian, hand over 'that thing,' and we can give you a quick death. "

Hearing this voice, Quan Batian's roar came to an abrupt halt.

He slowly turned around, his eyes filled with rage and hatred.

It was them!

If it weren't for them setting an ambush and heavily injuring Zhuer, how could she have ended up in such a state!

" You seek death! "

Quan Batian spat out these two words, and a powerful Aura erupted from his body.

The pressure belonging to a True God Realm expert erupted violently, shrouding the entire sky.

In the sky, several figures appeared. The leader looked down at Quan Batian below with disdain on his face.

" Quan Batian, you are but a mere minor god. What? You also want to try your hand against this Heavenly God? "

" Heavenly God? "

Quan Batian grinned coldly, his expression ferocious.

" Then today, I shall defy and kill a Heavenly God! "

Before the words had even faded, he had already transformed into a blood-colored rainbow, shooting up into the sky to take the initiative and attack those uninvited guests.

" Arrogant! "

The leading Heavenly God expert's face sank; he had not expected that a mere True God would dare to take the initiative to attack him.

A great battle erupted instantly.

Quan Batian's offensive was extremely fierce. He completely abandoned defense, and every move was a life-for-life tactic; his attacks were crazed.

The Heavenly God expert had initially thought he could easily handle him, but he was surprised to discover that Quan Batian's combat power far exceeded his imagination.

With the body of a True God, he was clashing head-on with a Heavenly God without falling at a disadvantage!

How is this possible!

This person must not be left alive!

The Heavenly God expert's killing intent soared; he no longer held back and joined forces with the others to besiege him.

Quan Batian was fighting many against one; after all, two fists cannot fight four hands.

In just a moment, several serious wounds were added to his body, and blood stained his armor, but the madness in his eyes grew even more intense.

" Boom! "

After another hard clash, Quan Batian was struck on the chest by the Heavenly God expert's palm, slamming heavily into the ground and creating a large crater.

" Defying and killing a Heavenly God—your potential is indeed terrifying, but unfortunately, it ends here. "

The Heavenly God expert hovered in the air, coldly pronouncing his death sentence.

Inside the crater, Quan Batian stood up unsteadily, and he suddenly burst into loud laughter.

The laughter was filled with unwillingness and determination.

" If defying and killing doesn't work... Heh heh... "

He raised his head, staring at the enemies in the sky with blood-red eyes.

" Then I shall break through my Realm! "

An Aura, stronger than before, erupted from within his body, causing the celestial phenomena to change.

" Not good! He is going to force a breakthrough in his Realm! "

The Heavenly God expert's expression changed.

They immediately launched attacks toward Quan Batian, wanting to stop him, but all their attacks were shattered by the rising Aura.

Seeing that Quan Batian's Aura was about to cross that chasm and step into the Heavenly God Realm, a chill rose in everyone's hearts.

They were very clear that once Quan Batian succeeded in breaking through his Realm, the ones who would die would be them!

Just at this critical moment, the Heavenly God expert suddenly cast his gaze toward the blood-filled room behind Quan Batian.

He laughed cruelly.

" If I can't kill you, then I'll start by killing your woman and child! "
