Shi Feiyang knew that her temperament was extremely poor and that she'd never be able to master the art of calming her mind to enter meditation, for the moment she tried to quiet her thoughts, she'd start thinking of handsome men. Thus, he simply didn't bother trying to have her refine her spirit and only focused on refining her form, requiring only that she internalize her mental energies within her body, no matter what she fancied thinking about.
As days passed, Shi Longgu's belly gradually swelled up, harboring the Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Ruler's nine Primordial Spirits—all coalescing into nine Demon Embryos.
At first, it hardly seemed noticeable, but as the Demon Embryos grew, they drew vast amounts of spiritual essence and blood from the mother's body, multiplying exponentially.
During this time, Shi Feiyang used the Pill Furnace left behind by the Golden Needle Saint Mother in the cave to concoct a hundred pounds of Blood Bait, each filled with spiritual medicines capable of significantly replenishing one's vitality and lasting a century.
Initially, Shi Longgu consumed three to five pounds of Blood Bait a day, but after a hundred days, even fifty pounds couldn't satiate her constant hunger.
By that time, consuming Dan Bait was no longer effective. Shi Feiyang then used millennial spiritual herbs to make many Angry Mysterious Pills for her consumption; these elixirs could greatly enhance Primordial Qi and stimulate one's latent potential. When Shi Feiyang was in his dragon form, a single pill would double his strength. Shi Longgu relied on these to temporarily withstand the consumption caused by the Demon Embryos.
With the Demon Embryos gradually taking shape, they started to churn tumultuously within her belly.
Under normal circumstances, Demon Infants would emerge from inside to out, breaking open nine bloody holes in her abdomen and sticking their heads out to manipulate the mother's body to hunt for fresh flesh and blood daily.
Shi Feiyang used Immortal Law to restrain them and instructed Shi Longgu to diligently cultivate.
Oblivious to the gravity of the situation, Shi Feiyang took out the Crystal Ball he had obtained from One Light Master and placed it on the table. With his hands forming incantations and his right finger pointing at the Crystal Ball, and his left finger directing a stream of Immortal Energy towards Shi Longgu's belly.
Inside the Crystal Ball, the images of the nine Demon Embryos quickly became visible. Their limbs were fully formed, their eyes were already wide open, emitting a fierce light from their pupils, and their mouths were full of sharp fangs—utterly terrifying.
"If you don't make an effort, they will eat you from the inside out, devouring your flesh and sipping your blood alive!"
Only then did Shi Longgu truly know fear—a palpable dread coursing through her. The mere thought of such nine horrific beings nestled inside her own belly turned her face deathly pale, breaking out in cold sweat.
Humans often only come to their senses and strive to change when faced with the immense terror at the end of their rope.
At that moment, Shi Longgu no longer indulged in frivolities or laziness, investing her energies diligently each day to complete the tasks devised by Shi Feiyang. She managed to become more focused and disciplined, no longer plagued by involuntary visions of her unclothed husband or the other handsome men she had encountered previously. Instead, her mind was replaced by images of the nine bloody Demon Infants.
After three sets of a hundred days, the Demon Infants were almost fully grown and increasingly tried to break through Shi Longgu's belly to reveal their heads.
Shi Feiyang had previously fashioned a bed from a jade stone produced at Outer Heaven Divine Mountain, carving it with all manner of talismans, including the Circulation Golden Talismans of the Three Emperors and the one hundred and eight Demon Suppression Talismans from the He Sha Book. He carved a shallow cave into the rock wall, inserted the bed, had Shi Longgu cultivate and nourish the embryos on it, and hung the Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Ruler directly above her head to suppress the Nine Demons.
Xiong Xue'er had already refined his Lifebound Embryo and was ready for Soldier Disintegration to reincarnate, but governed by his concern for his wife, he wanted to wait until after the Demon Infants were born to leave, so he stayed by her side to tend to her.
Shi Feiyang said, "These Demons are formidable. Not only can they control their mother, but they can also manipulate the minds of anyone who comes close. If you wish to stay, that's fine—I'll teach you a mental technique for Demon-suppression and inner Demon subjugation. Focus on cultivating it. Consider this a trial, for if you can ensure the safe birth of the Demon Infants, it will strengthen your character and greatly benefit your future cultivation."
After learning his mental technique, Xiong Xue'er concentrated on suppressing Demons daily, remaining beside Shi Longgu.
The Myriad Cold Centipede, originally a malicious and brutal primeval Great Demon even though it had taken on human form, lacked any semblance of humanity, embodying the pure bestiality of the survival of the fittest.
Having been killed in the flesh by Shi Feiyang and her Primordial Spirit refined into a Divine Demon, she underwent intense Soul Refinement torment. Although she outwardly followed Shi Feiyang's teachings on human etiquette, her nature at its core remained untamed and beastly true to its essence.
Now that she had genuinely acquired human embryos, her nine Primordial Spirits were divided by Shi Feiyang's Immortal Law and wholly split into nine separate beings, no longer each other's division, yet still connected through a profound intuitive bond. They were equally ferocious and cruel, born as humans but in reality reached the pinnacle of the Demon Path!
After their rebirth, endowed with flesh and blood, they sought to break free from Shi Feiyang's constraints, burst through Shi Longgu's abdomen, and devour Shi Feiyang first.
After being suppressed by the bed and Jade Ruler, they acknowledged the gravity of their situation. Recalling the memories of being punished and subdued in previous lives, they lay dormant, reined in all their Evil Qi, and became seemingly gentle and endearing. Through telepathy, they conveyed their thoughts to Shi Longgu: "Mother! Can you feel your daughters? We are grateful for your kindness in nurturing us..."
Shi Feiyang warned Shi Longgu that no matter what messages the Demon Infants sent her, she shouldn't take them to heart or exert any effort, dismissing them as illusions.
Shi Longgu had seen nine fanged Demon Embryos inside the Crystal Ball which had terrified her to her core, so naturally, she dared not respond.
Another hundred days elapsed, and the Demon Infants' mana became increasingly potent, directly conjuring illusions in Shi Longgu's mind that made her envision nine adorable little girls, who called her "Mommy" with sweet, cooing voices.
At first, Shi Longgu remained unmoved. The Demon Infants turned into nine charming little girls who chased her through a forest, calling out for "Mommy" as they pursued. She simply watched from a distance. They kept falling, kept crying, their hands and feet bloodied by scrapes. Then, various wolves, insects, tigers, and leopards appeared, threatening to devour them.
