Chapter 426: Chapter 35 Dilemma_1

“My little sister is pregnant?”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Feng looked at Wang Ba with great joy.

“Congratulations, brother.”

However, upon hearing this sudden news, Wang Ba was both overjoyed and confused.

“How… how can this be?”

They had been paired as Daoist couples for many years but had never before considered having a child.

The previous situation didn’t permit it, secondly, during the Qi Refining stage, cultivators often need to refining essence into qi, this essence being kidney essence, also known as the essence of reproduction. Therefore, the vast majority of cultivators would give up their cultivation and focus on procreation only if they knew their future was hopeless.

Otherwise, most would not waste their time on childbearing.

Once they’ve passed the Qi Refining stage, the three elements become one, and it’s extremely difficult to separate the kidney essence from the rest.

Even if separated, the amount of Xiantian Yuanyang is very small, and the probability of conception is minuscule.

This is one of the reasons why the higher the cultivation base of a cultivator, the harder it is to sire offsprings.

While Wang Ba’s realm isn’t very high, both he and Bu Chan are currently at the Foundation Establishment stage, which makes the prospect of childbearing incredibly slim. On top of this, due to recent changes in their circumstance, the frequency of their intimate encounters has significantly decreased.

The last time they were intimate, they used the Dual Cultivation Method given by Wen Yong.

And the Dual Cultivation Method involves the merging and gathering of elemental yin and yang, which strengthens both parties’ Dharma fundamentally and naturally will not result in offsprings.

If we go further back, they had been intimate again a half a year earlier.

He didn’t doubt Bu Chan, after some thought, he decided to ask the question that had been gnawing at him.

No detail is insignificant in cultivation, the question of procreation is a significant one for humans, and Wang Ba dared not take it lightly.

“As you said, judging by the age of your Daoist partner’s fetus, it is likely related to the Dual Cultivation Method you cultivated.”

Tang Ji pondered for a moment, then said, “Hand me your Dual Cultivation Method.”

Wang Ba quickly handed over the method that Wen Yong had given him.

After scanning it with his spiritual mind, Tang Ji revealed a smile: “Hehe, if I’m not mistaken, this is a method from the Chu Dynasty…”

Wang Ba was taken aback, could that really be true?

Tang Ji saw Wang Ba’s confusion and explained:

“What you don’t know is that the Chu Dynasty is different from Jin, Yan, and even Qi. There are few sects within the country. They form large families based on bloodlines and rule over Chu. Among them, the most prosperous is the imperial family of Chu, the Xiang family.”

“Because of the importance placed on bloodlines, they rarely recruit from outside clans. Naturally, they pay great attention to the proliferation of their descendants. Therefore, they have developed many dual cultivation methods that can not only benefit both parties but also improve fertility.”

Having heard this, Wang Ba suddenly understood.

He nodded admiringly:

“Elder Tang has a keen eye, this method is indeed from Chu.”

“However, is there something I need to decide? Could it be that…..”

Tang Ji didn’t beat around the bush:

“This matter concerns the talent of your offspring.”

“Offspring’s talent?”

Wang Ba was slightly stunned.

“Yes, compared to spirit beasts, humans are unique. They have inherent spiritual wisdom, so as long as they have a spiritual root, they can cultivate. However, humans also have their limitations, they cannot pass on their realm to their offspring who will still need to start from scratch.”

“Moreover, whether or not they have a spiritual root is still an unknown factor.”

Tang Ji said: “However, despite this, among human cultivators, there are quite a few capable individuals who have found alternative methods.”

Wang Ba couldn’t help but listen more attentively.

If possible, he naturally hoped that his offspring would also have a spiritual root. He had suffered a lot in this aspect and really didn’t want his offspring to suffer the same way.

Tang Ji said:

“There are two methods.”

“First, cultivate a Xiantian spiritual root. It’s not complicated to say. In one sentence, collect spiritual items from heaven and earth to nourish the Xiantian body. Spiritual items naturally have a division of the five elements, under their nourishment, an expectant mother’s qi of the five elements flourishes, and the likelihood of giving a spiritual root naturally increases exponentially. If successful, the baby will awaken their spiritual root from birth, and their cultivation speed will be much faster compared to those who awaken their spiritual root postnatally.”

“However, the cost is enormous, and it may not necessarily result in a spiritual root.”

“Secondly, strengthen their Xiantian Qi and blood. Even if they don’t have a spiritual root, if they can maintain and continue to strengthen their Xiantian Qi and blood, in the future they can use other spiritual items to connect their physical body with the passage of the five elements, thus indirectly achieving the effect of having a spiritual root. This method has a very high success rate, but because the Qi and blood are too formidable, they may probably only be able to follow the path of body cultivation in the future.”

“This method doesn’t require too much investment now, but it might cost a lot in the future.”

Tang Ji laid out all the pros and cons of the two methods.

“This is the reason I called for you. Both methods need to be carried out during pregnancy, and if missed, it will be incredibly harder to make up for them later. Seeing your child is so blessed to be unharmed amidst such calamity, I couldn’t bear to see their potential wasted. However, it all depends on you, others can’t make this decision for you.”

Upon hearing these words, Wang Ba pondered a bit, he did not make an immediate decision:

“May I ask, elder, can I see Bu Chan first?”

Tang Ji gave a small smile:

“You are Daoist partners, there is no reason to prevent you.”

“But she just recovered from her injuries, be mindful.”

With a wave of his wide sleeves.

When Wang Ba opened his eyes again, he found that they had appeared on a vast wilderness.

There were a few small houses on the wilderness, and a middle-aged woman cultivator with an unfathomable aura, who was no less than Zhao Feng, walked out of one of the houses with a weary face.
