I am asking the Ancestor to ascend to heaven in the world of "Covering the Sky".

"I have a child?"

I have a child!

Ji Lingyun almost shouted with excitement, her whole face turning bright red, as if she wanted to roar to the sky.

He had wanted to leave behind an heir for a long time, but in this life, he really didn't have much time. Almost from the moment he transmigrated, he began to fight, so he had no time to talk about love and romance.

Later, he attained enlightenment and became an emperor, pacified the forbidden zones, and was revered by all living beings. Ordinary women had no interest in him at all, because the two were not on the same level, and it would be too far-fetched for them to become Daoist partners.

But now the Empress has given birth to his own bloodline, which excites him so much that his hands tremble slightly with excitement.

The two had only combined their powers once, yet their attack was so successful that the probability of success was almost as low as a Quasi-Emperor transforming into a Mortal Immortal—it was practically impossible.

But this is what really happened: the Empress gave birth to her own bloodline!

"Can I touch him?"

Ji Lingyun's voice trembled slightly as he looked up and asked the Empress.

Upon hearing this, the Empress felt goosebumps all over her body. She could not bear to have a man touch her abdomen.

But at that moment, the little life inside her seemed to sense Ji Lingyun's presence and sent out a faint divine thought, as if calling for her father and mother.

Ji Lingyun couldn't hold back any longer. He squatted down and tremblingly reached out his right hand to gently touch the Empress's abdomen.

Because the pregnancy was not too long ago, the Empress's belly was still smooth, and even through her clothes, it was as delicate and smooth as warm, lustrous mutton fat jade.

Ji Lingyun's eyes gleamed with astonishing light as he gently caressed the Empress's abdomen, his excitement reaching its peak.

“This is a divine embryo, inheriting our Dao and Dharma.”

He extended his divine sense and scanned the area briefly, and was immediately shocked.

The Devouring Heaven Demon Art, the Power of Flying Immortal, and the Great Dao of Void were all swirling around the fetus, as if it were about to ascend to immortality.

The Empress's expression was extremely complicated. She had no way to get rid of the child inside her. She couldn't refine him at all. If she wanted to get rid of him, she would probably have to ask Ji Lingyun to take action.

But judging from the current situation, how could Ji Lingyun possibly refine this child?

"Is this child really the only option?"

Her eyes were lifeless, and she was very unwilling.

At the same time, she seemed to have already envisioned the future in her mind. She was walking around the Ji family home with her big belly, quietly taking care of her pregnancy.

Thinking about this, a chill ran down her spine. She had been pure and innocent for countless years, and now she was going to bear another man's child. This was utterly absurd.

At the same time, the fetus in her womb moved again, and a faint divine thought reached out and rang in the empress's ear, as if a tender voice was calling to her, which was very endearing.

How old is the baby?

Suddenly, Ji Lingyun raised her head and asked.

The Empress was speechless, her expression complex, her beautiful eyes dim and lifeless, but she finally spoke, "It's been more than two months."

"Why don't you come back to the Ji family with me? The Boundary Sea and the Human Realm are getting closer and closer, it's not safe for you to stay here."

Upon hearing this, the Empress refused without hesitation.

If she really returned to the Ji family, wouldn't she have to give birth to this child without any room for discussion? That would be absolutely impossible.

Ji Lingyun was stunned. He hadn't expected the Empress to react so strongly, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

But at that moment, not far away, Ye Fan and the Qilin King looked as if they had seen a ghost, their eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

"The Empress is pregnant with Ling Yun's child?"

Ye Fan looked somewhat dazed, finding it unbelievable.

The fact that the world's two most powerful figures have consummated their marriage and even conceived a child is a shocking development that would cause if it were to spread.

The Qilin King was completely frozen in place.

However, he never expected that the empress, who was always pure and innocent, would do something unspeakable with Ji Lingyun.

The two looked at each other, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.

"Ling Yun, you're quite something, kid."

Ye Fan was astonished. He had actually gotten the Empress pregnant; he truly hadn't expected this to happen.

In the distance, Ji Lingyun also sighed slightly. He understood that the Empress was unwilling, but he could not possibly refine the child himself, since it was his bloodline.

For a moment, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward, and the entire desolate forbidden area fell silent.

After a long while, the Empress slowly spoke, "You all go first. Let me calm down by myself."

Her voice was somewhat low as she turned around and walked away into the distance, her white robes fluttering slightly, making her appear both holy and inviolable.

The Empress dismissed them, wanting to be alone. Her mind was in turmoil, a jumble of emotions swirling within her.

Actually, I really want to marry you.

At this moment, Ji Lingyun spoke up.

His voice wasn't loud, but it made the Empress tremble. However, she quickly regained her composure and said, "You should leave first."

As soon as she finished speaking, the empress stepped into the abyss and disappeared.

Ji Lingyun was speechless. He opened his mouth, but said nothing.

He understood the Empress's complex feelings. From losing her virginity to becoming pregnant, how could she, who was originally pure and innocent, bear such a thing happening?

Therefore, Ji Lingyun took Ye Fan and the other person away first, giving the Empress a chance to be alone and calm down.

In the blink of an eye, two months have slowly passed.

During this period, apart from investigating the situation in the Boundary Sea, Ji Lingyun stayed at the Ji family home, gazing into the desolate ancient forbidden zone.

For the past two months, he had noticed that the Empress had been sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the abyss, often lost in thought.

Before her lay a patch of black earth, neither too big nor too small, the place where her brother had perished years ago. She had dug it up and kept it carefully ever since.

"Brother, why did you entrust me to Ji Lingyun back then?"

This was the only sentence the Empress had uttered in the past two months, as if she were asking her brother, or perhaps herself.

Then, she calmed down, her stunningly beautiful face slightly lost in thought, as if the world had lost its color. She was so beautiful that it felt unreal.

The Empress's belly began to swell slightly; she was more than four months pregnant, and the fetus inside her was becoming increasingly active, often sending out tender divine thoughts that echoed in her ears.

On this very day, she, who had never moved before, suddenly stepped out of the abyss and arrived at a sacred mountain within the ancient forbidden zone, overlooking the entire Eastern Wilderness Continent.

This stop lasted for more than a month, and her belly had grown quite noticeably.

During this period, the Empress did consider refining the fetus, but as always, she was helpless. In the end, she even gave up and stopped struggling.

"What? Missing me again?"

The empress suddenly spoke, subconsciously reaching out her slender hand to touch her stomach.

She could clearly sense a faint divine thought emanating from her, and a childish voice calling out to her.

At that moment, she didn't even realize that her face was filled with maternal radiance, and she looked very gentle.

Meanwhile, Ji Lingyun, far away at the Ji family home, also breathed a deep sigh of relief. A huge weight had been lifted from her heart, and a smile spread across her face.

But in the next moment, Ji Lingyun was suddenly startled. His eyes suddenly shot out a divine light that pierced through the universe and looked at an ancient place.

"Something has changed in the Boundary Sea; a being has crossed over to this realm!"

He tore the universe apart and killed his way through.

A dark creature wielding a silver gourd walked out from the dam with a smile on its face. It swung its fists and tore through the restriction left by Ji Lingyun, crossing the boundary.

"So even the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths of yesteryear were shattered."

He looked down at the vast universe with a nostalgic expression.

"However, the spiritual energy here is truly repulsive."

With a flick of his finger, a massive amount of dark matter erupted, transforming into a vast black ocean that engulfed all the life-bearing stars in the area.

"Ahhh!"

"Get away from me! What is this thing?"

Instantly, a series of mournful howls rang out, and all the cultivators were corrupted and transformed into dark creatures.

Countless star systems were destroyed, losing their sentience and becoming part of the dark creatures.

"Not bad, not bad, this is the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths I know."

The creature holding the silver gourd laughed heartily, its laughter radiant.

"boom!"

At this moment, a golden fist suddenly tore through space and came crashing down with an unparalleled aura, intending to kill the creature holding the silver gourd.

"Oh? Is it the person who killed Yuan Mo?"

He revealed a strange expression, clenched his fist, unleashed a divine light, and clashed head-on with Ji Lingyun.

"boom!"
