Chapter 60: The Earth-Shaking Rewards of the Child of Destiny Breakthrough

When Ye Wushang entered the birthing chamber, Zhao Qingge and the others arrived soon after.

Clearly, the celestial phenomenon caused by Yue Rushuang’s childbirth was so terrifying that it alarmed them all.

At that moment, Yue Rushuang gazed at the baby in her arms with a gentle maternal smile.

She knew with this child born her position as the Ye family’s first wife and matriarch was now unshakable.

Though Ye Wushang had always been loyal, the number of women around him continued to grow, and Yue Rushuang couldn’t help but worry.

From initial anxiety to present joy, the emotional journey she had endured was hard to put into words.

She had feared the child might be a freak, unsure of what she’d do if that happened.

Thankfully, Ye Wushang had stayed by her side, comforting and encouraging her, helping her deliver the child peacefully.

Looking at the little girl before her, Yue Rushuang couldn’t help but smile warmly.

The baby was exquisitely beautiful, the kind that everyone would adore at first sight.

Even Zhao Qingge and the others, upon seeing her, instinctively softened their steps and quieted their breathing, afraid of startling the child.

Yue Rushuang knew: with such beauty and the immense celestial phenomenon accompanying her birth, Ye Wushang who already favored daughters would undoubtedly love this child.

Sure enough, when Ye Wushang entered and saw the little girl, his eyes immediately filled with affection.

He carefully took her into his arms.

As if sensing his gaze, the baby looked back at him.

Feeling the warmth and familiarity from him, she smiled a toothless, innocent grin that nearly melted Ye Wushang’s heart.

Just one glance, and Ye Wushang saw a trace of spiritual brilliance in her eyes.

He guessed she had just awakened her sentience but had no prior experiences.

A newborn, yes—but one blessed by the Immortal Realm, reincarnated through the cycle of samsara to achieve an extraordinary destiny.

“Little rascal, you made your mother suffer so much in the womb. Were you trying to torture her?”

He jokingly raised his hand to pat her bottom, but upon meeting her gaze, he couldn’t bring himself to do it.

Instead, he gently tapped her nose.

“Yiya ya~”

The baby babbled, grabbing a strand of Ye Wushang’s hair and playing with it.

Soon, enveloped in his fatherly love, she peacefully fell asleep.

“Darling, what about the phenomenon just now?” Yue Rushuang asked worriedly.

She had every reason to be concerned.

She knew better than anyone how such a phenomenon could attract dangerous attention.

Whether the child could grow up safely was still uncertain.

Ye Wushang smiled reassuringly and said.

“Don’t worry. I’ve already concealed everything. The elders have issued a gag order to the entire clan.

Even if the Pavilion Master of Fate personally tries to divine her existence, he won’t find a trace.”

He was confident.

After all, the Eye of Destiny was a supreme treasure of the heavens.

Its concealment abilities were beyond ordinary comprehension.

Hearing this, Yue Rushuang and the other women finally relaxed.

Though they were close, when it came to their children’s safety, they couldn’t help but worry.

Now, with Ye Wushang’s assurance, they could truly feel at ease.

“Let’s name the child,” Yue Rushuang said softly, looking at Ye Wushang.

After a moment of thought, Ye Wushang replied.

“Let’s call her Ye Xinqing meaning ‘clear skies after the rain.’”

“Ye Xinqing… Ye Xinqing… What a beautiful name!”

Yue Rushuang repeated it twice, then looked up and praised him.

“Of course. It’s your husband who named her—how could it not be special?”

“You’re so smug!” Yue Rushuang rolled her eyes at him.

After spending two months with mother and daughter, Ye Wushang returned to cultivation.

He had received news: the secret realm would open in just over a year.

To ensure absolute success in that expedition, he planned to spend all remaining time strengthening himself.

With so many rewards to digest, it was a golden opportunity for growth.

But he knew consuming all of it in just one year was impossible.

Cultivation Begins

In the clan’s training chamber, Ye Wushang assessed his current state and decided to first fuse the Heavenly Blade Physique and Dual-Pupils.

Without hesitation, the two top-tier talents were perfectly integrated into his body.

Originally possessing the Hehuan Dao Body, the addition of the Heavenly Blade Physique brought a complete transformation, skyrocketing his combat power.

His left eye now bore a deep, mysterious glow, merging seamlessly with his pupil.

Time passed.

When he opened his eyes again, an overwhelming aura erupted from his body.

The fusion of these two talents had elevated his combat strength to terrifying new heights.

He wasn’t sure of his exact limits, but within the Dharma Aspect Realm, few could threaten him now.

Both talents were combat-oriented, making him even more formidable in battle.

Satisfied, Ye Wushang smiled and took out the Breakthrough Card he had long prepared.

As he activated it, radiant light surged through the heavens.

His body trembled as spiritual light erupted from his Purple Mansion.

At that moment, Ye Wushang’s cultivation reached Dharma Aspect Realm, Level One.

He had become a true powerhouse.

His combat strength had multiplied many times over.

If he faced his former self, he could crush him effortlessly.

Thanks to the formation’s concealment, the entire Daxia Dynasty remained unaware of his breakthrough.

Kunpeng Bloodline Fusion

Without leaving seclusion, Ye Wushang took out the Kunpeng essence blood and consumed it.

Instantly, his body trembled violently.

The immense spiritual energy nearly overwhelmed him.

If not for his mastery of the Ninefold Golden Body Art and his recent breakthrough, he wouldn’t have dared to absorb it.

Even so, it was a painful process.

But the fusion greatly enhanced his strength and power.

Time passed unnoticed as he cultivated and refined his body.

When he awoke again, half a year had gone by.

His strength had undergone a complete transformation.

Though much of the power remained dormant, it would awaken with future breakthroughs and battles.

Status Check

Activating the Eye of Destiny, Ye Wushang examined his current state:

Power Boost

Without hesitation, Ye Wushang began upgrading his techniques:

• • • • Sea-Swallowing Dao Technique
        • • • • +1.5 million points → Level 4
        • • • • +2 million points → Level 5
        • • • • +3 million points → Level 6
        • • • • Cannot upgrade further due to realm limit

His Purple Mansion expanded hundreds of times beyond the norm.

In terms of spiritual energy storage, he now surpassed others by a factor of 100.

Though the upgrades felt amazing, the cost was immense.

He was left with only 3.5 million fortune points.

He spent 3 million more to upgrade Northern Cloud Devour-Heaven Art to Level 5 (Perfected).

A massive spiritual shield now protected his sea of consciousness, rendering him immune to most divine sense attacks.

Only Star Sea Realm kings could pose a threat to his mind.

With his strength soaring once again, Ye Wushang smiled.

“Time to leave seclusion.”

Upon emerging, he realized nearly a year had passed.

Time had flown.

His eldest daughter’s coming-of-age ceremony was approaching.

Ye Xinqing was now one year old.

Her spiritual brilliance far surpassed other infants of her age.

Anyone who saw her could sense her extraordinary nature.

And that was with Bai Ze’s concealment—without it, her brilliance would be impossible to hide.
