I Can Fix My Talent in Hundred Lives-Chapter 349 - 283: The Demon Venerable’s Instructions
Chen Sheng retracted the true form of the Golden-Winged Roc, the Yin Yang aura surrounding him gradually faded away, leaving only the unique pressure of the Great Demon Emperor Realm.
As he turned to return to the Roc Imperial Palace, he saw several figures in ancient robes walking quickly toward him from the edge of the Cloud Sea; it was the elders who had witnessed his breakthrough.
Everyone’s eyes were filled with amazement:
"Your Imperial Highness Peng Emperor! Congratulations on breaking through to the Great Demon Emperor! To reach this realm at less than two hundred years old is truly unprecedented in our Demon Court’s history!"
"When Your Highness broke through, the ten-thousand-foot true form and the might of the golden bridge manifested by the Yin Yang Qi Diagram were truly eye-opening for us!"
Chen Sheng looked at the respectful elders, feeling no arrogance in his heart. He stepped forward and raised his hand slightly, indicating that they need not be overly formal, speaking calmly:
"You elders are too kind. This breakthrough, though due to my own accumulation, could not have been achieved without the support of the Demon Court and the care of you elders."
"Without a perfect cultivation place like the Yin Yang Grotto Heaven, and without the guidance of the Demon Venerable, I would not have been able to break through so smoothly."
"You elders have toiled for the Demon Race for millennia, guarding the tranquility of the Demon Court, an achievement far more important than the cultivation realm."
These words deeply comforted the elders:
"With a leader like Your Highness, why should our Demon Race fear not prospering!"
"Indeed! If any matters arise in the future, Your Highness can instruct us, and we will certainly assist with all our might!"
After exchanging some pleasantries, Chen Sheng glanced at the sky and said:
"It’s getting late. If you have any matters to attend to, please go ahead. You can send someone to the Roc Imperial Palace if there’s anything you need in the future."
"Alright! Then we won’t disturb Your Highness any longer."
"Your Highness has just broken through and needs to stabilize your cultivation. We shall take our leave now."
The elders bowed to Chen Sheng once more and then slowly turned to leave.
...
After the elders left, Chen Sheng retrieved the Grotto Heaven Light Sect, exited the Yin Yang Grotto Heaven, and headed straight to the Golden Feather Hall.
"Greetings, Great Ancestor."
Chen Sheng stepped into the hall and bowed deeply.
The Golden Feather Demon Venerable looked up, his gaze landing on Chen Sheng. The previously calm eyes gradually showed signs of a smile. He raised his hand, saying:
"Rise, how does it feel to have broken through to the Great Demon Emperor?"
Chen Sheng straightened up:
"Thanks to Great Ancestor’s blessing, the breakthrough went smoothly, and now my mana within is stable. Both my true form and spiritual treasure have also improved."
The Golden Feather Demon Venerable inquired in detail, filled with admiration in his tone:
"Your ten-thousand-foot true form, and the Yin Yang Qi Diagram now possessing the power of a Tier Five Dao Artifact, achieving this at less than two hundred years old, you truly haven’t squandered your talent."
Chen Sheng modestly replied, "My achievements today are all thanks to your careful guidance and support, Great Ancestor."
The Golden Feather Demon Venerable nodded slightly, but suddenly his gaze drifted to the Cloud Sea outside the hall, his expression becoming complex, as if he had something on his mind.
After a moment of silence, he softly said, "Huan’Er, Great Ancestor has something to tell you."
Seeing the Demon Venerable’s serious expression, Chen Sheng felt a chill deep within and quickly said, "Please go ahead, Great Ancestor."
The Golden Feather Demon Venerable spoke slowly, his voice tinged with a sense of the passage of time:
"I, along with several other human Celestial Venerables, have agreed that in three hundred years, we shall traverse the chaotic spatial streams and leave this realm to continue our path in the Upper Realm."
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Sheng felt a sudden tightness in his heart. Throughout this life, he had been under the care and guidance of the Demon Venerable, and hearing of his imminent departure left him feeling empty.
He couldn’t help but think of Master Dragon Void, who for the sake of the Dao Path, also fearlessly crossed the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range.
Master Dragon Void had a decent outcome, though he couldn’t form his Nascent Soul, he continued on the Dao Path.
However, the Demon Venerable wants to pass through the chaotic spatial streams, forcefully crossing to the Spirit Realm...
Having inherited the Four Seas Wanderer’s legacy, Chen Sheng was well aware of the difficulty; even a Celestial Venerable of Divinity Transformation is likely to fall!
The Golden Feather Demon Venerable looked at him solemnly:
"These three hundred years are the time I give you to pave the way, so you can thoroughly take control of the Demon Court."
"Now that you’re a Great Demon Emperor, your power is sufficient to awe the various races. With another three hundred years of experience, you will surely be able to stand alone, becoming the new pillar of the Demon Court."
He saw Chen Sheng was silent and assumed he was anxious, so he gently patted the top of his head, quietly reassuring him:
"No need to be anxious. The path of cultivation is one of constant farewells and progress. Though I am leaving, I will leave you with the clan’s foundation, enough to counter ordinary Celestial Venerables of Divinity Transformation."
"Moreover, you also have five consorts to assist you, and the clan behind them will also be your support in stabilizing the Demon Court."
"Of course, you must also strive, for if you can ascend to Divinity Transformation, everything will be as stable as a mountain!"
Listening to the Demon Venerable’s words, hearing that everything had long been arranged, Chen Sheng was even more moved, feeling a deeper sense of reluctance in his heart: "Great Ancestor..."
The Golden Feather Demon Venerable gently smiled:
"Do not behave like a child. By the way, there are also your three unborn children. In the future, while handling the affairs of the Demon Court, you must also spend more time taking care of their mother and them."
"When the children are born, you must personally teach them how to conduct themselves and cultivate, so they inherit the glory of the Golden-winged Roc Race and become your helpers in overseeing the Demon Court."
"Be sure not to neglect your family because of the busyness of cultivation and affairs. Family ties are an indispensable bond in the path of cultivation."
Chen Sheng hastily bowed and responded, filled with solemnity in his heart: "I will remember the teachings of my great-grandfather!"
The Golden Feather Demon Venerable looked at his determined expression, a satisfied smile appeared in his eyes:
"Good. You may withdraw now, you need to stabilize your cultivation after the breakthrough, also, go accompany your consorts. If you have any confusion in the future, you can come to me anytime."
"Yes, great-grandson takes his leave." Chen Sheng bowed again and slowly exited the Golden Feather Hall.
...
Upon leaving the Golden Feather Hall,
Chen Sheng, with mixed feelings, walked towards the Roc Imperial Palace, the clouds beneath his feet automatically parted, forming a path leading to the palace.
Upon reaching the palace gate, he saw five consorts dressed in resplendent attire already waiting there, their faces full of joy and anticipation.
"Husband!"
Luan Ning first came up to welcome him. She was dressed in a palace outfit of green and blue, the green bird patterns on her skirt glittered under the sunlight, her pair of emerald eyes full of delight.
Following closely were Hu Qing, Kong Ling, Ao Rou, and Lang Yue, all quickening their pace, their eyes unable to conceal their excitement.
Hu Qing approached, gently brushing away the dust from Chen Sheng’s black robe, her voice soft as a whisper:
"Husband, you’ve been in seclusion for several months, we’ve all been missing you, and now seeing you return safely and having broken through to the Great Demon Emperor, it’s truly wonderful!"
As she spoke, a faint moisture appeared in her eyes, full of genuine concern.
Kong Ling moved to Chen Sheng’s side, raised her hand, and a flash of Five-Colored Divine Light appeared. A vibrant Spirit Flower appeared in her hand, which she presented to Chen Sheng with a bright smile:
"Husband, this is the ’Victory Flower’ I cultivated using the Five-Colored Divine Light. Upon hearing of your breakthrough, I specially prepared it for you, wishing your cultivation reaches new heights!"
Although Ao Rou and Lang Yue were more composed by nature, they couldn’t hide their joy at that moment either.
Ao Rou stepped forward, bending slightly: "Congratulations, husband, on your breakthrough to the Great Demon Emperor. Such talent is unmatched!"
Consort Lang Yue nodded, her amber eyes full of admiration:
"Husband’s strength grows ever stronger, we can learn more from husband."
Looking at the five beloved consorts before him, the complex emotions in Chen Sheng’s heart gradually dissipated, and he laughed heartily: "I’ve made you worry, the breakthrough was relatively smooth this time."
As he spoke, his gaze swept over the five of them, noticing Hu Qing, Kong Ling, and Ao Rou’s slightly swollen abdomens, and they appeared a bit more plump than usual, which filled his eyes with a touch of tenderness.
These three consorts were currently pregnant, their abdomens not yet obviously showing, but already surrounded by the faint aura of life.
Chen Sheng smiled and said: "In the future, I will spend more time with you all, so when you successfully give birth to the offspring, our family will be even more lively."
Luan Ning and Lang Yue also came over. Luan Ning smiled and said:
"Rest assured, husband, we will also help take care of the three younger sisters, ensuring they safely give birth to the young master."
Lang Yue also nodded: "I’ll pay extra attention to the palace’s security, ensuring no one disturbs the sisters’ pregnancy."
Looking at his five harmonious and loving consorts, Chen Sheng was filled with relief. He even mentioned that the remaining two gentle consorts should also bear children, causing the two to be filled with joy.
...
In several decades, having only three pregnancies seems quite low to Chen Sheng.
However, to many High Tier Demon Races, procreation is inherently difficult, especially the Golden-winged Roc Race, whose noble bloodline results in a very low birth rate, often having offspring only once every few centuries.
Yet Chen Sheng managed to have three consorts pregnant within a few decades. This efficiency is already a miracle for the Golden-winged Roc Race!
This matter once reached the ears of the Golden Feather Demon Venerable.
After learning about it, the Demon Venerable even personally came to the Roc Palace to conduct an examination on Chen Sheng and the three pregnant consorts.
He took out a lustrous Jade Mirror, infused it with Spiritual Power, and the mirror emitted a gentle glow covering Chen Sheng.
After a moment, intricate patterns appeared on the surface of the Jade Mirror, and upon seeing the patterns, the Demon Venerable’s eyes gradually lit up with delight.
"Good! Very good!"
The Golden Feather Demon Venerable put away the Jade Mirror, patted Chen Sheng on the shoulder, his voice filled with excitement:
"Huan’Er, you have indeed inherited your grandfather the Red Flood Dragon Emperor’s special constitution, and it is even stronger than your grandfather’s, greatly enhancing fertility efficiency. For my Golden-winged Roc Race, this is an enormous blessing!"
"In the future, you must expand your branches and leaves, making the clan grow stronger!"
Truth be told, even Chen Sheng didn’t expect that Chen Yuquan, who was nearly indifferent to women in the first half of his life, would be the one to most fully inherit their family’s ’Dragon Spirit and Tiger Fierce’ talent.
It was precisely this constitution, along with his Artifact Refining talent, that led to him being chosen by the Golden Feather Demon Venerable as the ideal son-in-law!
