Jiang Yuqiong carefully studied this newly acquired system.
In simple terms, the system would periodically release tasks for him to complete.
As long as he met the requirements, he would receive corresponding rewards.
There weren't many flashy features.
The rewards were all related to cultivation.
"I wonder what kind of good stuff I'll get."
Jiang Yuqiong couldn't help but feel a bit excited about this.
At that moment, the prompt sounded in his ear again.
"Ding, new task released!"
"As the son of an Heavenly Emperor, the host must achieve extraordinary feats and surpass ordinary people."
"Please complete the task objective: Begin cultivating from within the womb."
"Task Reward 1: Supreme Bone."
"Task Reward 2: Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuqiong was thrilled.
The first task was released so quickly!
However, this task sounded...
A bit difficult.
Drawing from all the novels he had read in his previous life, he rarely came across cases of cultivating from within the womb.
Yet now, the system was asking him to complete such a task!
"I don't even have a cultivation technique, and I know nothing about the basics of cultivation."
"Isn't this task a bit too challenging?"
Jiang Yuqiong sighed.
He had only awakened his consciousness two months ago and had never been exposed to cultivation matters.
Even though his mother was a Heavenly Emperor-level powerhouse, and his father and other relatives were likely strong as well, they hadn't discussed cultivation in front of him.
Even if they had, with Jiang Yuqiong's current level, he wouldn't understand, right?
Moreover, he hadn't been born yet, so he couldn't ask his parents to teach him.
This was somewhat frustrating.
"I can't let my first task end in failure, right?"
"Besides, these two rewards are just too tempting!"
Jiang Yuqiong was extremely covetous of the task rewards.
The Supreme Bone represented innate supremacy.
Once obtained, it would bring him an ultimate transformation.
Especially after leaving the womb, he would lose his mother's Heavenly Emperor origin cleansing.
But with the Supreme Bone, it could continuously refine him and his body.
Moreover, the most terrifying aspect of the Supreme Bone was its innate divine abilities!
Heavenly Tribulation Light!
Reincarnation Treasure Technique!
Either one was an incredibly fearsome technique.
Additionally, the Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique was not to be missed!
This technique was outrageously powerful, capable of devouring all origins in the world and converting them into his own power.
Sacred Bodies, Dao Bodies—in front of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique, they were merely nourishment.
The treasure techniques derived from the Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique were terrifyingly heaven-defying!
If he could obtain it, it would undoubtedly bring unimaginable benefits to Jiang Yuqiong!
"No matter what, I have to find a way to complete the task."
"Such good stuff, the more the better. I absolutely can't miss out."
Jiang Yuqiong thought to himself.
He began to ponder how to complete this task of cultivating from the womb without a technique or understanding of cultivation.
Not long after, his eyes lit up.
"I've got it!"
"I can't cultivate on my own, but I can borrow my mom's power!"
Jiang Yuqiong felt elated.
Every day, his mother would use her power to cleanse him.
Those Heavenly Emperor origin forces, upon entering his body, would follow specific trajectories for refinement.
Each time, Jiang Yuqiong would let his mother handle everything, closing his eyes and being a passive participant.
But upon deeper thought, those trajectories must contain profound mysteries.
Perhaps they could be used as a cultivation technique's operational route.
Since the system only required him to cultivate from the womb and didn't specify to what extent, couldn't he just freely interpret it?
"Hahaha... I'm such a little genius!"
Jiang Yuqiong laughed heartily in his mind.
Next, all he had to do was wait patiently.
Wait for tomorrow, when his mother would cleanse his bones and marrow again.
After a while, Jiang Yuqiong felt his mind slightly fatigued and gradually fell into a deep sleep.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the next day.
...
Xuan Shuang Heavenly Grotto.
This was an immense space, as if it formed its own world, independent of the greater realm.
Within the grotto, divine vines and precious herbs covered the ground, white cranes danced in the forests, and jade rabbits hopped joyfully.
Dense spiritual energy flowed like mist in the void, and spiritual springs in the mountains converged into towering divine waterfalls, cascading from high above.
Amidst the layered mountains, grand structures were faintly visible.
Among these structures, one didn't stand out much, resembling a typical wealthy household's courtyard.
The interior was arranged with a warm, homely atmosphere, filled with a touch of domestic charm.
However, every item in this courtyard, from the smallest brick and tile to the largest beam and pillar, was crafted from top-tier heavenly materials and treasures.
Even the green plants covering the yard and the colorful flowers for decoration were all high-grade spiritual herbs and precious medicines!
Any single item here, if thrown into the cultivation world, could spark a bloody storm.
No wonder.
After all, this Xuan Shuang Heavenly Grotto was the residence of the only Empress in the current era, the number one powerhouse of the Great Desolate Realm—Frost Heavenly Emperor!
At this moment, in the courtyard.
A handsome young man was carefully supporting a woman of peerless beauty, like an exiled immortal, as they walked out of the room and into the yard.
This pregnant woman was Su Qingshuang.
And the man beside her was her husband, Jiang Wuxu.
He was also an incredibly powerful Saint Ancestor-level powerhouse, a top-tier existence in the entire Great Desolate Realm!
"I've already thought of a name for our son!"
"Let's go with Jiang Yuqiong. Frost, what do you think?"
Jiang Wuxu said with a smile.
Su Qingshuang, hearing this, repeated the name a few times and smiled with satisfaction.
"Jiang Yuqiong, that's a good name. Let's go with it."
Her voice was gentle and pleasant, and when she said "Jiang Yuqiong," she couldn't help but feel a deep sense of maternal love.
Su Qingshuang unconsciously lowered her head, looking at her swollen belly, gently stroking it with her hand, a look of happiness on her face.
"As long as you like it, Qingshuang!"
"Sit down, let me massage your legs."
Jiang Wuxu put on a big smile, helping Su Qingshuang sit on a rocking chair.
Then, disregarding his image as a Saint Ancestor powerhouse, he squatted down and diligently began massaging her legs.
His technique was clearly very practiced.
Inside Su Qingshuang's womb, Jiang Yuqiong had just woken up and heard his parents' conversation.
He hadn't expected that the name his father chose would be the same as in his previous life.
But he didn't dwell on it too much, instead finding it amusing.
"Here comes the simp dad again."
His father, Jiang Wuxu, treated his mother just like those simps from his previous life.
The difference was, while other simps ended up with nothing after all their efforts, his dad actually won the beauty—and not just any beauty, but an Empress far more powerful than him!
Comparing people can really be frustrating!
Jiang Yuqiong teased in his mind.
Having just woken up, he felt refreshed and full of energy.
He couldn't help but stretch lazily.
As soon as he moved, Su Qingshuang let out a soft "Ah."
"The little guy is restless again."
Her words were filled with a happy tone.
But soon, Jiang Wuxu's "fierce" voice rang out.
"Stinky brat, daring to make trouble in my wife's womb. When you come out, believe it or not, I'll spank your butt into a hundred and eight pieces?"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yuqiong heard a loud "boom."
It sounded like something had been blasted away.
Then came Su Qingshuang's scolding voice.
"Jiang Wuxu, if you dare lay a finger on my son, I'll send you to the Demon Abyss to be suppressed for ten thousand years!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yuqiong burst into laughter in his mind.
No doubt, the one blasted away was definitely his dad.
His dad was completely under his mom's thumb.
Even before he was born, Jiang Yuqiong's status already seemed to surpass his dad's.
His mother's deep affection, even through the womb.
