Urban Invincible Overlord-Chapter 1209 - 1206: Heavenly Dao’s Constraint

"Yang, there’s nothing wrong with your body."

At the main peak of the Qingtian Sect, inside an alchemy room, Qin Sizhong spoke to Yang Fei.

More than four years ago, he and Ouyang He left together, wandering the mountains and rivers of today’s Earth, writing part of a new map, and they made some simple annotations of the current regions where various plants and animals are active on this new Earth.

During these wandering years, Qin Sizhong and Ouyang He gathered many precious herbs they recognized, often discussing medical skills and alchemy. Qin Sizhong had some insights and decided to return to White Jade City first, while Ouyang He, grateful for Yang Fei’s gift of the Foundation Establishment Pill, decided to revisit the places he hadn’t yet been. Although it wasn’t possible to record the detailed landscape and distribution of flora and fauna on Earth in a short time, he felt he should traverse the entire Earth to capture its general layout.

Qin Sizhong returned six months ago, bringing back all the information he and Ouyang He had gathered over the past three years. After three months of organizing this back at the mountain, he began attempting alchemy.

A month ago, he successfully refined the Peiyuan Pill.

The effect of this Peiyuan Pill is much weaker than the basic Nourishing Pills sold in the Southern Domain Cultivation World.

But compared to the elixirs that could be refined in the former Hidden Sect cultivation world, it is much stronger.

In any case, this elixir has definite benefits for cultivators; however, because the Earth now possesses a massive Spiritual Ore Mountain Range and the number of cultivators on Earth is very small, everyone can completely rely on Spirit Stones to assist in cultivation. So, an elixir like the Peiyuan Pill, refined by Qin Sizhong, seems of little use to cultivators.

On the other hand, some martial artists who can’t cultivate, as well as ordinary people, if they take this Peiyuan Pill, can actually strengthen their body and prolong their life.

But Qin Sizhong is very interested in the Alchemy Technique and has not given up honing his alchemy skills. His goal is very clear: to improve his technique through refining elixirs, hoping to make elixirs like the Foundation Establishment Pill in the future.

Qingtian Sect is a Sect in this new cultivation world, and several top members of Qingtian Sect have their own ambitions, wanting to lead the sect from ancient martial arts to cultivation. For this, Qin Sizhong is constantly striving.

The last time Yang Fei suddenly found him, Qin Sizhong was in the middle of alchemy. Hearing that Yang wanted him to examine his body, Qin Sizhong got startled, thinking Yang might have encountered a setback in cultivation.

As a result, learning that Yang wanted a check-up because he couldn’t have children with two women for so many years, Qin Sizhong sighed with relief and was silently amazed. He then looked at Yang with a skeptical gaze.

At that time, Yang Fei felt annoyed because Qin Sizhong’s look seemed like he was questioning his capability.

After diagnosing Yang Fei’s pulse and shaking his head, Qin Sizhong revealed a puzzled expression as he spoke of the diagnosis.

Yang Fei immediately relaxed and said, "That is strange. If I’m fine, why have Yanyang and Yunshu had no movement for so many years? Is it their problem?"

Qin Sizhong shook his head and said, "I don’t know, but the probability of two women being infertile at the same time is still very low. Moreover, infertility is not a big issue for our medical skills; just go back and check them separately."

It’s difficult for one to diagnose one’s issues, but Yang Fei, being more skilled than Qin Sizhong in medical skills, would have no problem checking Qin Yanyang and Tong Yunshu.

Yang Fei nodded, saying, "Thank you, Qin, you continue with your work."

Qin Sizhong remembered something and reminded him, "By the way, I heard from people at the Lingxiao Sect that it’s indeed very difficult for cultivators to have offspring. Why don’t you ask them?"

Yang Fei responded with an ’Hmm’, waved his hand, and flew away.

Qin Sizhong then collected his thoughts and focused entirely on watching the alchemy furnace.

Yang Fei returned to the main peak of White Jade City to inquire with Li Yue of the Lingxiao Sect about related matters and obtained the conclusion that the odds of cultivator couples having children are extremely low.

Especially the higher the talent of the cultivators, the lower the fertility rate.

For according to the explanation in the cultivation world, those capable of cultivation have extremely advanced genes, and these excellent advanced gene talents are constrained by Heavenly Dao rules, which is why it’s much harder for cultivators to reproduce than ordinary humans or lower animals.

However, cultivators are not entirely infertile; relative to their long lifespans, they do have a few opportunities to conceive offspring in their lifetime.

"So, does this mean the Heavenly Dao is controlling the reproductive capacity of cultivators through this special method?" Yang Fei asked.

Li Yue thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes. Think about it; if cultivators could easily have offspring, how many children would they produce over lifetimes that span hundreds or thousands of years? Wouldn’t that cause a massive population explosion in the cultivation world? Most importantly, with cultivators having good genes, the odds of their offspring possessing spirit root talents capable of cultivation would be much higher than ordinary people. So this may break some balance of the Heavenly Dao in the cultivation world."

Yang Fei silently nodded, finding this very reasonable.

"Alright, I’ll go back and check the pulses of my two wives to see if they have any issues." Yang Fei waved his hand, turned, and left.

Li Yue watched his departing back, shaking his head with a smile.

In their cultivation world, many people become Dao companions, but very few of these couples have children—this is the rule of the cultivation world.

After Yang Fei returned home, he first checked Tong Yunshu and found she indeed had no problem, so he went to find Qin Yanyang.

Qin Yanyang was amused and exasperated by his actions.

However, she too had been puzzled by this matter more than once, so she allowed Yang Fei to do a check-up.

"How is it, any problems?" Qin Yanyang asked nervously after Yang Fei released her pulse.

Yang Fei shook his head with a smile, "The body is very healthy, no problems at all."

Qin Yanyang breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "If that’s the case, then why haven’t we had any movement for so many years? Why hasn’t Tong Yunshu had any movement either?"

Yang Fei explained what he learned from Li Yue.

Qin Yanyang was relieved, "If that’s the case, then let’s not worry about it."

Yang Fei nodded but frowned again, saying, "We used to be mere martial artists and hadn’t become cultivators yet, so why didn’t you two get pregnant then?"

Qin Yanyang thought for a moment and said, "Didn’t they say it’s a genetic inheritance issue? We belong to those with very high talents, so our genes are precious, and the Heavenly Dao to some extent restricts the number of offspring, making it extremely difficult to conceive."

Yang Fei found this explanation to be quite mysterious and felt it wasn’t very convincing, but the facts were right in front of him, and the situation in the cultivation world was similar, so he could only accept it.

Since there was no problem with their health, Yang Fei was no longer worried about whether he could have offspring in this lifetime.

Everything would be left to fate.

Moreover, the fundamental conflict with the cultivation world hadn’t been completely resolved yet, so they should wait until the cultivators of Earth’s cultivation world become strong enough to establish themselves in the Southern Domain Cultivation World before considering it.

In the following six months, Yang Fei worked with Tong Yunshu to upgrade the Mountain Protection Array again.

Zhuge Cang, Lu Chen, and some cultivators interested in Rune Tao and formations, all helped out to some extent.

After a total of seven and a half months, as Tong Yunshu inserted the Ancient Jianmu into the array eye of the Mountain Protection Array of White Jade City, a brand-new Mountain Protection Array was formed.

At that moment, Wu You and Zhuo Donglai, along with a few others who chose to stay on Earth to cultivate, happened to come to White Jade City. From afar, they suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of caution, as if an overwhelming divine pressure was sweeping in, compelling them to submit and worship.
