Longevity with My Offspring

Profound Thunder Zhenren chose to strike during the day, and as soon as he entered the depths of Grave Mountain, a battle erupted, causing quite a commotion.

Being somewhat distant, Shen Wang could only investigate with his spiritual sense, perceiving thunderous roars and the cries of creatures deep within, the battle seemed intense.

Not long after, Profound Thunder Zhenren retreated somewhat in disarray, cursing under his breath, his face quite unsightly, likely gaining nothing of benefit.

Regarding such matters, Shen Wang merely sneered, glad to watch a dog-eat-dog scenario unfold without saying a word, even if Profound Thunder Zhenren came over to inquire, he pretended not to hear.

In the following time, Profound Thunder Zhenren occasionally continued to fight with the nasty entities within.

Although unaware of the circumstances in the depths of Grave Mountain, from Profound Thunder Zhenren's reactions and the recurring sounds of battle every few days, it seemed his actions were not proceeding smoothly.

Shen Wang was still a bit surprised, as now it appeared Grave Mountain contained even more formidable things!

Even a Golden Core Zhenren was helpless against them, the things inside surely are no ordinary beings, no wonder the stronger Shen Family relocated from here in the past.

He couldn't help but recall the family's warnings before his arrival, advising against entering the depths of Grave Mountain, indicating they knew some facts about it, hence the relocation for fear of provocation.

Specifically, after so many years, perhaps even the family is not very clear, or maybe only the clan leader knows what exactly it is.

However, judging from Profound Thunder Zhenren's reaction, Grave Mountain is at least more dangerous than presumed.

It remains unknown whether there are other formidable sinister entities, or some kind of array formations therein.

Profound Thunder Zhenren entangled with the things in the depths of Grave Mountain for most of a month, finally ceasing in frustration.

Shen Wang elevated the danger level in Grave Mountain to Golden Core Level, thereby ceasing to interfere further.

The peaceful time passed swiftly.

Paper Kite, due to the activation of Wind Spirit Blood during pregnancy, was the first to breakthrough to Innate, followed by Liu Shan, and Hongping broke through last.

As for Jia'Er, there was still some way to go until Postnatal Perfection, unable to breakthrough.

Midway through the three's cultivation breakthrough, a small accident occurred.

At the same time, Lan Kui successfully became pregnant, increasing Shen Wang's daily cultivation reward by one-third.

With spring gone and autumn arriving, at the onset of Lidong, when Xue'Er started speaking, Jia'Er was due to give birth.

At noon of this very day, Paper Kite, with a protruding belly, accompanied by Hongping and Lan Kui, was attending Jia'Er in childbirth, while Shen Wang and Liu Shan waited outside.

"Congratulations, Master, on soon having a second child."

Having reached Innate, Liu Shan's demeanor had significantly improved, bowing while offering congratulations sincerely for Shen Wang's joy.

"Congratulations to you too; your Hongping is also pregnant with a second child."

Shen Wang replied with a smile, being trapped here with no escape; aside from cultivation and miscellaneous tasks, Liu Shan and Hongping had little else to do other than nightly cultivation in bed, producing another child as a result.

"It's embarrassing, being trapped here, we need another mouth to feed."

Liu Shan remarked awkwardly.

"One child is not too much, just need to nurse them, your food supply is sufficient, moreover, they won't trap us for too long."

Shen Wang cast a cold glance outside, over the past half a year, he had honed all Five Elements Magic to perfection, wielding various spells effortlessly, even though his cultivation hadn't broken through, his combat prowess was formidable.

If not for Profound Thunder Zhenren, he would've gone for a walk long ago.

"Master must be careful, there are too many outsiders, each one seems no lesser than me."

Liu Shan said, "For my wife and me, being able to stay here for quiet cultivation is a blessing, we're not in a rush to leave."

"No need to say more, I have my judgments."

Shen Wang shook his head, contemplating inwardly he must seize a chance for Profound Thunder Zhenren's departure to get out and procure some resources.

But now, with the numerous bandits outside in Black Water Stronghold, escaping like last time seems difficult, otherwise he would've attempted long ago.

"Waa!"

The sound of a child's pure cry reverberated inside, invigorating Shen Wang, as he smiled: "My second child is born!"

He felt quite emotional, the ten months of pregnancy was indeed long, he watched Jia'Er's belly grow day by day, accompanying the child's growth, now he found solace in its safe birth, feeling both contentment and security.

"Congratulations to Jia'Er for giving birth, I'll go fetch the porridge."

Liu Shan hurried to retrieve the special food prepared for the mother, aimed at replenishing strength.

"Ding, congratulations on obtaining a second Longevity Species, your cultivation has advanced by one small realm to protect the new life."

A prompt appeared before Shen Wang, originating from the system.

Following this, Shen Wang's realm swiftly advanced from early-stage Foundation Establishment to mid-stage Foundation Establishment, and was proportionally enhanced, not merely an initial entry.

Upon reaching the mid-stage, the cultivation he had been practicing during this period was directly added to the advancement, equivalent to cultivating for half a year.

He was somewhat amazed and surprised: "The first child assisted me in repairing my Dantian, and the second child surprisingly helped me ascend a small realm, equating to three years worth of cultivation rewards, even aided by the system; normal cultivation would probably take thirty years."

Shen Wang was deeply moved.

Though in terms of value, enhancing cultivation pales in comparison to repairing the Dantian, its practical use is much higher, especially given the current situation.

Advancing one small realm enhanced his combat power significantly, he had confidence in handling peers like Ge Changzhuang and Yun Conghui outside.

Evidently, the system rewarded him based on his actual situation, being highly utilitarian and immediately applicable.

He assessed his status.

The cultivation breakthrough carried no side effects whatsoever, as if it were naturally cultivated by Shen Wang himself, allowing carefree operation.

Additionally, the changes in physique and mental state accompanying the cultivation enhancement were also present, not solely increasing cultivation.

Apart from a feeling of undeserved gain psychologically, there were no issues.

With self-reassurance, he accepted this power as his own.

The augmented power swiftly circulated within him, then returned to the Dantian under his control.

His breakthrough aura quickly faded, his expression tranquil, as he disappeared first, arriving in the kitchen ahead of Liu Shan.

"I will attend to it personally."

The door opened, and upon passing through the screen, Paper Kite was on the bed with gauze curtains wiping Jia'Er's sweat.

Apart from appearing slightly fatigued, Jia'Er's condition was still good; after all, being a martial artist, her physical endurance was far superior to ordinary people.

In Jia'Er's arms, a chubby boy was observing the world with wide eyes.

"Husband."

Lan Kui and Paper Kite turned their heads to greet affectionately as Shen Wang entered, smiling warmly.

They understood Shen Wang was not particular about excessive formalities, as none were needed here.

"Mm."

Shen Wang nodded, brought the warm porridge to Jia'Er's side, and smiled, "Thank you for your efforts, especially Jia'Er."

"It's not hard, being able to nurture this little fellow for husband is very meaningful."

Jia'Er spoke happily.

Shen Wang approached and kissed Jia'Er, then looked at the son: "This time it's a boy; now I have both a son and a daughter."
