Chapter 1612: One mountain cannot house two tigers
This silly whale… there’s really no saving it.
Dear, have you forgotten that you’re already pregnant with twins?!
The fat whale golden core sped towards the mist, and opened its mouth wide, swallowing it in one mouthful.
In the next moment, its already large belly swelled up even more.
For the fat whale golden core, it was normal to swallow things that appeared like ‘small golden cores’. It worked in the same way as to how it was instinctual for humans to close their eyes when seeing that something was about to hit them.
It was carved in its DNA.
Song Shuhang could forcibly stop the fat whale golden core; after all, it was his golden core, so he could still control it with his will… but it was meaningless.
The last ‘golden core’ was destined to be born.
Song Shuhang softly said, “If it’s to be born, then so be it. This should be the last one anyway. Senior White is right, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Having triplets in one go would be a lot more efficient.”
He was no longer concerned about whether there were going to be triplets; instead, he was now concerned about how exactly the three cores were going to look.
For certain, one of them was going to be the ‘core reactor’.
The other one should be produced from either the steel manifestation or the ancient divine witch blood.
As for the last one, it should be born from the Black Dragon World’s black mist, but what form was it going to take after being born?
While Song Shuhang was in thought, the fat whale golden core rolled over in pain in his dantian.
The triplets were so huge that they almost burst its stomach—the swelling pain of the golden core affected Song Shuhang’s body, and his main body violently convulsed at the abdomen.
The virtuous lamia appeared and supported Song Shuhang. Her gaze locked onto Song Shuhang’s dantian area.
Song Shuhang gritted his teeth, and said, “I’ll be leaving it to you, Fairy Waiting for a Promise.”
She had to squeeze out the triplets in one go.
The virtuous lamia smiled—as she was the most beautiful fairy maiden in the Ancient Heavenly City, her smile was truly as beautiful as a flower in full bloom, and the tear-shaped mole at the corner of her eye added an indescribable charm to her.
In the next moment, the hands of the virtuous lamia dug into Song Shuhang’s dantian, and grabbed the tumbling fat whale golden core.
This time, the fat whale golden core did not evade.
The triplets had severely affected its agility, so this time it could not evade in protest like before. Today, it could only allow itself to be grabbed like a salted fish.
The virtuous lamia grasped its tail skillfully and squeezed it with her right hand, moving from the bottom to the top.
The fat whale golden core struggled fiercely; it was in extreme pain.
Song Shuhang only felt his sight go dark as his head started getting dizzy.
Every time the fat whale golden core struggled, it caused his sight to go dark.
Just when Song Shuhang’s eyes blacked out for the ninth time, he vaguely saw a picture.
Similar to a dream, it seemed to be an illusion caused by the severe pain.
In this dreamlike scene, he saw familiar clouds and a familiar senior standing in front of him—the Scholarly Sage.
The Sage walked in front, while Song Shuhang followed behind him.
Not long after, the Sage suddenly stopped walking. He turned around, and opened his mouth as if he was saying something.
However, no sound came out.
At the next moment, a strange light appeared in the Sage’s eyes.
Isn’t this the nightmare I had previously, where the Scholarly Sage used the ‘Twins Impregnating Gaze’?
Song Shuhang thought to himself.
Why did this nightmare reappear?
Just as Song Shuhang was feeling puzzled, in the scene, another eye opened on the Scholarly Sage’s forehead! Similar to Erlang’s, a vertical pupil appeared, and this pupil also shone with a strange light.
Triplets Impregnating Gaze?!
Song Shuhang tried his best to squeeze out the struggles of his inner heart. “F*ck you!”
After struggling to let this sound out, Song Shuhang’s consciousness became clear.
At this time, the fat whale golden core opened its mouth, and spat out the first ‘golden core’.
It was the familiar yet unfamiliar ‘mechanical core reactor’.
It was different from when it had been in the belly of the blonde girl. After experiencing the ‘pregnancy and birth’ process in the belly of the fat whale golden core, this mechanical core reactor had completely become Song Shuhang’s property.
Song Shuhang subconsciously glanced at the bottom of the mechanical core reactor… There, a Pekingese’s head was s.h.i.+ning brightly.
Oh, this thing is still there.
This was the evidence of his ‘friends.h.i.+p’ with Doudou. It proved that there was a steel-like friends.h.i.+p between them.
The mechanical core reactor floated peacefully beside the fat whale golden core. Unlike its elder brothers, the reactor was calm and remained motionless.
❄️❄️❄️
At this time, the virtuous lamia’s right hand squeezed another one out.
The second golden core was spat out by the fat whale golden core.
It was a drop of dark golden divine blood—this should have come from the ‘ancient divine witch blood’! However, it looked different from how it originally looked. At this time, the ‘ancient divine witch blood’ was branded with a ‘QR code’… Yes, it was exactly like the one on the foreheads of the Celestials.
Could it be that after absorbing the 50-odd Celestials, it had undergone a change?
❄️❄️❄️
Song Shuhang softly said, “Now, the last one.”
What was the last golden core going to look like?
The virtuous lamia’s right hand forcefully stroked the fat whale’s belly.
The last ‘golden core’ was finally squeezed out.
A small, human-shaped core flew out from the mouth of the fat whale golden core.
This small core had a humanoid appearance, and was dark golden in color. It looked like a miniature version of Song Shuhang.
“A nascent soul?” Song Shuhang couldn’t help but ridicule.
What kind of golden core was this? This was clearly a cultivator’s ‘nascent soul’.
After the miniature Song Shuhang core appeared, its glabella flashed… In the next moment, Song Shuhang’s Fifth Stage-level ‘divine sense’ was linked with this humanoid golden core.
His divine sense resonated with the humanoid golden core.
The form of his golden core underwent another change.
The miniature version of Song Shuhang suddenly gained weight, and dragon scales grew on its body like armor. After that, a pair of dragon horns grew on top of its head, wings grew on its back, and a long… whale tail also grew out.
The seventh golden core—Ancient Nether Dragon Soul.
When this golden core was born, Song Shuhang’s mind automatically came up with its name.
Differing from ordinary cultivators’ golden cores, the Black Dragon World’s ‘Ancient Nether Dragon Soul’ was a core created from mental energy.
However, due to Song Shuhang’s mental energy having transformed into divine sense already, his ‘Ancient Nether Dragon Soul’ linked up and resonated with his divine sense in the end.
With the buff from the ‘Ancient Nether Dragon Soul’, the strength of Song Shuhang’s divine sense doubled, and it was also easier to control.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, for Black Dragon World pract.i.tioners who ascended to the Fifth Stage, their Ancient Nether Dragon Soul would be influenced by the ‘Black Dragon World’, and would eventually cause them to have a half-dragon appearance, making them look very handsome. This was also the origin of the name ‘Dragon Soul’.
However, Song Shuhang’s Ancient Nether Dragon Soul had been affected by his fat whale golden core… which caused him to gain weight out of nowhere.
As for the word ‘Ancient Nether’… it seemed to have something to do with the Netherworld.
“Ancient Nether, Netherworld…” Song Shuhang scratched his head.
Hmm, this seems to be vital information. In a while, I’ll talk to Senior White’s clone about this.
The virtuous lamia had squeezed out three cores in a single breath. It felt extremely refres.h.i.+ng.
Her hands withdrew from Song Shuhang’s dantian… At the same time, a trace of regret appeared on her small face.
The last three small golden cores corresponded to the remaining three small dantians that Song Shuhang had.
In other words… Song Shuhang’s life-bound whale core probably had no chance of getting pregnant again.
After delivering the triplets today, her job of ‘squeezing the whale core’ was no more. The thought of this made the virtuous lamia a little heartbroken.
Song Shuhang said, “Time for the last step.”
Given the past experiences, the three small golden cores should be slapped away by the tail of the life-bound whale core, and move along the ‘small dantians’ until they finally arrived at a small dantian that would belong solely to them. Then, they would settle down, and live and work in peace and contentment.
But today, there seemed to be something wrong.
The three small golden cores born this time all appeared to be the calm type. After they were born, they did not circle around the life-bound whale core like their elder brothers.
And due to the life-bound whale core being in an extremely weak state from having just given birth to triplets, it couldn’t get up and send its three children away with its tail.
“…” Song Shuhang.
“See, this is why you should eat one bite at a time. If you take too big of a step, you’ll tear your jeans at the crotch,” the virtuous lamia said, using a very aunt-like voice.
…Only the heavens knew what TV show or movie this line of hers came from.
In fact, there was one thing that Song Shuhang had always been very curious about.
When exactly did the virtuous lamia get to watch so many shows and movies? Could it be that whenever Lady Onion was watching a movie, she accompanied her in watching it?
Song Shuhang rubbed his temples.
What should he do now?
Should he get the three newborn golden cores to head to their own small dantians on their own?
As he was thinking this, the golden cores seemed to have received Song Shuhang’s order.
The three moved at the same time.
The dark golden ancient divine witch blood, mechanical core reactor, and ancient nether dragon soul rose at the same time, and rushed to Song Shuhang’s small dantian area.
Song Shuhang was overjoyed. These three small golden cores were truly different from their elder brothers—they were obedient and well-behaved!
The three small cores ran to the first small dantian.
There, there was the small golden core that had a near-complete ‘Golden Core Composition’.
The small cores had to keep moving.
Along the way, they pa.s.sed by the territories of the ‘colorful monster core’, the ‘virtuous diamond ball’, and the ‘royal blood demon core’.
However, as these areas were occupied, they had no choice but to continue upward and into the area of the [Dragon Neck Dantian].
This place was empty.
The three golden cores entered it at the same time, and they released their own strength simultaneously, preparing to reside in it.
However, one mountain couldn’t house two tigers.
A small dantian couldn’t house three cores.
“Pat!”
The core reactor took the lead in making a move. As the eldest of the triplets, it reacted the fastest—it underwent a change and a.s.sumed the appearance of a small ‘steel manifestation’.
Then, it expelled the other two golden cores without hesitation.
