In the eastern part of the Great Wilderness Demon Court, atop Peng Demon Cliff, stands a palace entirely crafted from red gold and jade, with its eaves intricately carved with soaring Golden Roc illusions.
At sunrise, these illusions absorb the power of the morning sun, resonating with crisp Roc cries, fully displaying the noble and majestic deanor of the Demon Race emperors.
Within the depths of the palace, a woman clad in a palace gown reclines against a soft couch draped in white fox fur.
Her appearance is cold and enchanting, her brows like distant mountains, her eyes resembling cold stars, and the vermilion palace gown accentuates her snow-like skin, emanating a faint aura of pressure.
This person is none other than the wife of the Peng Demon Emperor, the Peacock Emperor.
Her right hand gently rests on her protruding abdon, with her palm radiating a faint multicolored spirit light, a unique Power of the Five Elents from the Peacock Race, slowly nourishing the unborn child within.
Beside the soft couch, a man in a golden robe stands attentively.
The man has a handso face, surrounded by golden Demon Essence, with a Peng Bird mark at his brow, precisely indicating the Tier Four Early-stage Demon Emperor, the Peng Demon Emperor.
In his hand, he holds a jade cup filled with Spiritual Liquid, his gaze fixed on the Peacock Emperor’s abdon, filled with tension and anticipation, even his breathing is extraordinarily light.
It’s inherently difficult for High Tier Demon Race bloodlines to proliferate, and he and the Peacock Emperor have labored for hundreds of years for this child.
Now, as they see the child has been conceived for four years, possessing an extraordinary bloodline from birth, a promising seed of a Demon Emperor, they dare not afford any negligence.
"My lady, is there anything you’ve been craving recently? I will prepare it for you imdiately."
The Peng Demon Emperor spoke softly, with an unprecedented gentleness in his tone.
Usually, during discussions in the Demon Court, he is always resolute and commanding, but in front of the Peacock Emperor, especially concerning the unborn child, he is as docile as a dosticated Spirit Pet.
The Peacock Emperor’s cold eyes slightly shifted, her gaze falling on the churning Cloud Sea outside the window, her lips curling into a faint smile:
"It’s been a while since I’ve tasted snake stew, perhaps go catch a few small snakes for a al."
Her true form as a Five Elents Peacock finds joy in devouring creatures imbued with Martial Power, and serpents in the Golden Core Stage contain Demon Essence that greatly benefits the condensation of the unborn child’s bloodline.
Upon hearing this, the Peng Demon Emperor quickly nodded, his face lighting up with joy:
"Rest assured, my lady! A few Tier Three Red Fla Snakes have recently hatched in the Myriad Snakes Cave, their bloodline is rich, and they contain a trace of Fire Attribute Demon Essence, perfect for your nourishnt and to aid the child’s bloodline condensation!"
Saying this, he carefully brought the jade cup to the Peacock Emperor’s lips, and after she drank the Spiritual Liquid, he quickly left, his golden figure disappearing swiftly from the palace, evidently eager to seek out ingredients for his wife.
After the Peng Demon Emperor’s departure, the atmosphere within the bedchamber gradually softened.
The icy, enchanting face of the Peacock Emperor showed rare tenderness as she gently caressed her abdon, the multicolored spirit light at her fingertips growing more intense, her voice as soft as a feather:
"Grow well, my child. Your father and I have paved the way for you, laying the best foundation, ensuring that in the future within the Demon Court, no one dares to bully you."
She knows well the strict hierarchy of demon bloodlines.
The ordinary demon bloodline is the most inferior, rarely breaking through to Tier Three in their lifeti.
The Earth Demon Bloodline is already comndable, sure to reach Tier Three Demon King status if it grows smoothly, and with purification and ancestral regression, it may even have a chance to challenge the Tier Four Demon Emperor.
The Celestial Demon Bloodline stands among the top in the Demon Court, easily becoming a Tier Four Demon Emperor, and with the bloodline potential from both her and the Peng Demon Emperor, it’s not impossible for the child to aim for the position of Great Demon Emperor.
As for the Holy Demon Bloodline, it has long exceeded the limits of this realm, can only be achieved when top-tier Great Demon Emperors refine their bloodline to the fullest potential while striving for the realm of Demon Venerable.
Currently, in the entire Great Wilderness Demon Court, only the Golden Feather Demon Venerable possesses a Holy Demon Bloodline, and his first-generation direct descendants are at most Celestial Demon Level.
And the child in her womb, four years in conception, the bloodline concentration has already reached Celestial Demon level, this talent is enough to make the entire Demon Court pay attention.
At this mont, within the Peacock Emperor’s womb, Chen Sheng calmly senses the surging energy around him, a vast Demon Essence flows into his body like a warm stream, allowing him to clearly perceive the changes within himself.
The wings on his back are gradually maturing, the feathers as pure as red gold, with intricate runes beginning to appear on each fiber.
Within his veins, the Power of the Five Elents and Yin-Yang Power intertwine like two lively little dragons, slowly flowing, nourishing his Demon Core.
"To possess both Five Elents and Yin-Yang... such a bloodline is indeed profound."
Within the womb, Chen Sheng’s consciousness slowly awakens, filled with a sense of wonder. Through these four years of nurturing, he has thoroughly explored the identity of this demon race body.
His father, the Peng Demon Emperor, is a Tier Four Demon Emperor and a direct descendant of the Golden Feather Demon Venerable, naturally controlling Yin-Yang Power.
The mother, the Peacock Emperor, hails from the top-tier demon race, the Peacock Race, capable of controlling the power of the Five Elents, and is also a Tier Four Early-stage Demon Emperor.
The fusion of two top-tier bloodlines has allowed him to inherit not only the speed and Yin-Yang Power of the Golden Roc Race but also the Five Elents Skill of the Peacock Race, making him possess top talent within the Demon Race.
"Truly, so things happen unintentionally yet yield great results."
Chen Sheng couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. In previous lives, he painstakingly managed the family, developing it step by step, but never truly enjoyed its protection.
Yet in this life, without intentionally laying out any plans, he beca a part of the core circle of the Great Wilderness Demon Court due to a descendant, becoming the offspring of the Peng Demon Emperor and the Peacock Emperor.
Born with an enviable status and resources, it truly was "born with a silver spoon in the mouth."
Compared to the crisis-ridden human body on the Path of Emotion Destruction, this demon body undoubtedly grew up in a pot of honey.
"After being born, with the resources of the Demon Court, maybe I can break through realms faster and also provide protection for the human body..."
Chen Sheng silently calculated in his heart, as his consciousness, following the bloodline inheritance, gradually imrsed in cultivation, beginning to guide the demon essence flowing into his body to condense his bloodline rune.
First, the Five Elents Rune slowly ford around the Demon Core, then the Yin-Yang Rune responded to it, with the two forces intertwining.
...
Initially, an invisible force within him was guiding these energies, circulating them along specified channels within his body.
It was the bloodline inheritance technique of the Demon Race!
No guidance needed, no cultivation required, it operated solely on bloodline instinct, like a mark imprinted deep within the soul.
Around his demon core, the red-gold Peng Race Rune and the multi-colored Peacock Rune slowly rotated, each turn stripping impurities from the demon essence, leaving the purest energy to integrate into the demon core.
On the red-gold wings behind him, the rune between the feather filants also instinctively absorbed energy, the initially blurred patterns gradually beca clear, like totems delineated with golden threads, exuding a faint pressure.
"The inheritance of bloodline is indeed mysterious; even a naive infant can utilize it."
Chen Sheng’s consciousness evoked genuine amazent; the power of this instinct is too miraculous, needing no deliberate control, yet can spontaneously purify bloodlines and temper the body.
No wonder demon races with strong bloodline talent are born with remarkable strength; this foundation accumulated since the embryonic stage is sothing Human Race cultivators cannot compare to.
However, for ordinary demon races, this instinctual guidance ensures a baseline.
Yet to Chen Sheng, a Nascent Soul Great Perfection Cultivator, the way this instinct operates appeared inadequate, with a large amount of demon essence dissipating aimlessly during circulation, not fully utilized.
Moreover, the energy distribution was extrely crude, excessively nourishing the demon core while insufficiently tempering the wings and body; over ti, this would definitely lead to an unstable bodily foundation.
"Instinctual operation, although stronger than the consciousness of demon races, is far less effective than when dominated by my consciousness."
Thinking of this, Chen Sheng attempted to mobilize his consciousness, like an experienced helmsman, beginning to steer the flow of energy within him.
Consolidating the originally scattered demon essence into strands of fine energy threads, akin to channeling a raging river into precise streams.
Then guiding these energy threads to swiftly shuttle through the ridians, increasing the purity of demon essence by another level.
Where it originally took ten portions of demon essence to fill the ridians, now only three portions of condensed energy threads were needed to saturate, with efficiency increased threefold.
In energy distribution, he made adjustnts, reducing the originally seventy percent energy towards the demon core to forty percent, ensuring stable growth of the demon core.
The remaining sixty percent of energy, thirty percent was used to temper the wings, allowing the rune between feather filants to form faster.
Another thirty percent was evenly distributed to the limbs, laying a foundation for bearing stronger demon power in the future.
With his guidance, visible changes occurred within the body; the growth rate of the demon core slowed sowhat yet beca more condensed, with the surface runes emitting a steady glow.
On the red-gold wings behind, the feather filants beca more resilient, the runes circulated several tis faster, and a gentle tremor could mobilize surrounding demon essence.
Within the bones of the limbs, there was a faint golden glow, as if quenched by red-gold, brimming with explosive power.
"That’s right, even in the embryonic stage, a profound foundation must be accumulated, to rapidly rise after birth."
Chen Sheng felt satisfied in his heart, his focus becoming increasingly concentrated, as if refining a top-grade elixir, with every thread of energy’s application precise to perfection.
He could feel that not only did the purity of his bloodline not decrease due to leading the cultivation but, thanks to the full utilization of energy, it beca purer, while the connection between the demon core and body grew closer.
