Deducing Godhood from the Fetal Stage

Chapter 56 Three Phases

Dixing First Maternal and Child Health Hospital.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of the Awakening Festival outside, the hall here was deserted, even desolate.

Behind the reception desk, two young nurses were huddled together, scrolling through gossip news on the screen while chatting quietly.

"Do you think our board members are out of their minds? Everyone knows that the psionic tides are at their strongest during the Awakening Festival, and ordinary families simply cannot have children born with a spirit soul."

"Even if there were, we would never dare to give birth at this time. We are afraid of this and that, so we are forced to work regular shifts without even being given time off in lieu of leave."

"Who says otherwise? Mind your own business. Those evil capitalists!"

Before he could finish speaking, the hospital's automatic sensor door slid open with a "whoosh".

Jiang Rang rushed in like a gust of wind, carrying Jiang Ren, who was in so much pain that he was half unconscious. Ling Jiu and Wei Yun followed behind him with solemn expressions.

"Doctor! Quick! My sister is about to give birth!"

The two nurses froze on the spot, dropping the sunflower seeds they were holding. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with disbelief.

But their professionalism made them react immediately. One of them hurriedly pushed over the stretcher, while the other quickly pressed the emergency call button.

"Quick! Emergency! Delivery room number seven! The pregnant woman's vital signs are unstable; premature labor is suspected!"

Outside the delivery room, a red "Operation in Progress" sign was lit up.

Lingjiu sat down in a chair to rest.

Jiang Rang leaned against the wall, feigning composure. Inside, Jiang Ren's heart-wrenching cries echoed, growing weaker yet filled with a chilling despair.

She was in excruciating pain, but she just couldn't give birth.

In the shadows at the end of the corridor, Wei Yun's figure emerged, her expression more solemn than ever before.

"no."

She walked up to Jiang Rang and Ling Jiu.

"I've already used my connections to get the highest-ranking fertility healer and a fifth-rank healing priest in the hospital to take care of her. Miss Renren's bodily functions are all normal, but the fetus's life magnetic field is being locked by an extremely domineering force. If this drags on any longer, it will be very dangerous."

Just then, colorful lights began to shimmer in the corridor, and a young girl appeared out of nowhere.

She looked to be in her early twenties, wearing black-rimmed glasses and a light green floral dress that revealed her fair collarbones and arms. Her hair was styled in two braids that hung down her shoulders, giving her an overall relaxed and casual look.

She looks like a recent artsy female college graduate.

"grandmother!"

Ling Jiu exclaimed in surprise upon seeing this.

grandmother?

Jiang Yun was taken aback. Was this also Ling Caixin?

He looked at her, who was about 1.65 meters tall and in her twenties. She was completely different from the silver-haired loli from before.

He carefully activated the Butterfly God's Eye, and it really was true.

He quickly took it back.

Ling Caixin was carrying a large insulated bucket, with disposable bowls next to her.

She saw Jiang Rang anxiously standing at the door and Ling Jiu, who almost wanted to hug her but didn't dare. She reached out and rubbed her head.

"What are you afraid of? Hug me if you want. I'm your grandma, not a monster."

Then she casually handed the thermos in her hand to Wei Yun.

"Wei Yun, pour a bowl of chicken soup and send it to the little girl inside. It should be enough to keep the pregnancy going."

Wei Yun disappeared instantly with the thermos.

Then, with a snap of her fingers and a flash of colorful light, Ling Caixin teleported the two of them to her home.

Ling Caixin's place looks like a very ordinary three-bedroom apartment, but she has a lot of pets on the balcony, including cats, dogs, snakes, and chickens.

She casually tapped the table, and the thermos suddenly appeared on the table, opened on its own, and automatically poured the chicken soup into bowls.

"Your sister has finished drinking and is feeling much better."

"Drink up, it's good stuff. Hurry up and finish it to perform the bloodline secret ritual, and use my great-grandson's innate Dao body and life soul to soothe the turbulent awakening ceremony. It will also help your sister keep her baby."

She sat down by herself and casually picked up the remote control to turn on the huge holographic TV in the center of the living room.

On the holographic television, the news channel was urgently broadcasting the latest news about the "Plunder Matrix." In the image, a silver-haired little girl who looked only fourteen or fifteen years old, dressed in a military uniform representing honor, floated solemnly beneath the starry sky.

Her voice, ethereal yet majestic, resounded throughout the empire via holographic projection: "The life soul is the path paved by those who came before, forged through thorns, allowing even mortals to prove their extraordinary nature. Everyone, cherish it..."

Jiang Yun recognized her from inside her belly. Wasn't this the silver-haired little loli-like grandmother he had seen in Ling Jiu's memories before?

In the living room, the artsy girl looked at her own adorable, innocent face on TV, and saw her speaking with a serious expression. Her lips twitched uncontrollably.

"I really don't know what young people are thinking these days, that they would like such an underdeveloped body. The world is going to the dogs."

"I'm not watching anymore."

She turned off the TV with a "snap".

Upon hearing this, Ling Jiu leaned close to Jiang Rang's ear and whispered an explanation:

"A Dao Lord-level being has three aspects: true form, mind form, and dharma form. Among Grandma's Dao fruits, there is a core Dao practice called 'Following the People's Will,' which means that the hearts of all people are her heart. Therefore, her mind form will become the form that the masses like the most."

Jiang Yun suddenly realized something in her stomach.

I see. No wonder he felt something was off before.

"Drink the soup."

Ling Caixin tapped the table with her spoon, interrupting their whispers.

Jiang Rang no longer hesitated, picked up a bowl, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp. Ling Jiu also silently picked up another bowl and quickly drank it down in small sips.

The next second, the two of them were stunned.

boom!

Jiang's bones emitted a series of firecracker-like explosions, and his blood and qi surged, purified, and sublimated at an unprecedented speed! The bottleneck of the Transcendent Realm was as thin as a cicada's wing in the face of this power, and was instantly broken through!

On the other side, a powerful aura also rose from Ling Jiu's body, her clothes fluttered without wind, and the seven-colored pagoda mark on her abdomen flashed by.

Her aura, which had been somewhat weak due to her pregnancy, instantly became solid and substantial, and her cultivation level even rose by a significant margin.

The two broke through their cultivation levels on the spot.

And Jiang Yun in her belly.

He felt an extremely pure warm current flow into his body through the umbilical cord, so comfortable that he almost burped.

A golden notification popped up before his eyes: [Hidden Perception: You have absorbed a trace of the 'Void Ancient Phoenix's' essence].

This warm current swept through his entire body, and his nearly perfected Meteorite Bone was completely tempered. He broke through the first level of Body Tempering and directly stepped into the second level of Body Tempering!

Overwhelmed by the massive flow of information and the fatigue brought on by the physical transformation, Jiang Yun's consciousness slowly sank into darkness, falling into a deep sleep and transformation.

living room.

Ling Caixin glanced at the increasingly ferocious and domineering 'predator matrix' in the sky outside the window, and her brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.

Then, as if remembering something, he sighed helplessly.

Colorful light flowed in her hand, and suddenly a sketchbook appeared. She pinched the eraser and gently wiped it, and the ink in the small three-bedroom apartment seemed to be smoothed out and quickly disappeared.

Then, it revealed its true appearance.

They found themselves inside a pagoda standing high above the starry sky, surrounded by dazzling starlight. They were currently on the middle level of the pagoda.

Ling Caixin gently raised her chin at the two of them.

"That house will do. Don't worry, the ceremony will be very simple."

"All you need to do is sincerely wish the baby well."
