In Year 3 of Konoha, Uchiha Yinglang secretly trained with knowledge and items gained from the lottery while maintaining his ordinary-child disguise. He made three useful playmates and returned home with his strength and future connections quietly developing.

• Uchiha Ning called Uchiha Yinglang home, and he waved goodbye to his friends as the Uchiha compound sank into dusk.

Uchiha Yinglang learned that he could replace his flawed Chakra Seed by using his own qi as life essence, but the dangerous, irreversible process required three uninterrupted days in a safe place. He arranged to visit the Naka River with Uchiha Ning so he could scout the nearby mountains for a secluded location.

• Uchiha Yinglang practiced his Hibernating Dragon Breath and reflected that his qi-based strength had reached a bottleneck.
• Uchiha Yinglang asked the system about replacing his Chakra Seed, and it explained the steps, risks, and preparations required.
• Uchiha Yinglang decided to search the mountains upstream from the Naka River for a secluded place to undergo the replacement.
• Uchiha Yinglang persuaded Uchiha Ning to take him to the Naka River the next morning, planning to scout the area.

Uchiha Yinglang secretly traveled to a hidden cave and began replacing the Chakra Seed with a new seed, enduring the painful procedure. He successfully devoured the old seed, escaped the Sage of Six Paths’ chakra system, and collapsed from exhaustion.

• Uchiha Yinglang found a sheltered recess behind vines near the Naka River and chose it as a place to hide.
• Uchiha Yinglang pretended to care for Uchiha Ning while she was ill, then slipped out of the compound and reached the cave alone.
• Uchiha Yinglang condensed his life essence and implanted a new seed framework, enduring intense pain.
• Uchiha Yinglang guided the new seed to devour the Chakra Seed, overcoming its resistance as his vital signs deteriorated.
• The system confirmed the replacement had succeeded, and Uchiha Yinglang collapsed in the cave, relieved that his power now belonged to him alone.

Uchiha Yinglang combined his self-nurtured dragon essence with combat breathing to create the Dragon-Slaying Breathing Technique and develop nine forms. After training with them until he snapped a tree in half, he hid his strength from his mother and returned to his ordinary-looking life.

• Uchiha Yinglang realized that breathing normally let him passively cultivate the dragon essence rooted in his own life force.
• After drawing a Nichirin Blade replica, he used its Breathing Style concepts to experiment with combining combat breathing and Hibernating Dragon Breath.
• Uchiha Yinglang compressed a full cycle of Hibernating Dragon Breath into one breath, creating the Dragon-Slaying Breathing Technique.
• Over the following months, he developed nine forms, ranging from Dragon Claw Strike to the still-unmastered Dragon Ruling the Nine Heavens.
• Uchiha Yinglang practiced the first eight forms at dawn and broke the backyard tree in half with World-Shaking Dragon Hammer.
• Uchiha Yinglang told Uchiha Ning he had been playing in the yard and concealed his training, while she remained unaware that he had felled the tree.

Uchiha Yinglang created a dangerous, chakra-powered imitation of his Dragon-Slaying Breathing Technique, disguising it as a forbidden technique that consumes the user's lifespan to explain his rapid growth and strength. He planted the explanation with his mother and hid the forged scroll beneath his bed for future use.

• Uchiha Yinglang realized that the dragon essence seed was accelerating his physical growth and worried that others would investigate his unusual strength and development.
• Over three nights, Uchiha Yinglang designed a stripped-down version of his breathing technique that replaced dragon essence with chakra and imposed increasingly severe life-shortening costs on its forms.
• Uchiha Yinglang invented a ninth form, Dragon Devouring the Nine Heavens, which burned the user's chakra, life essence, and soul for thirty breaths of power before certain death.
• Uchiha Yinglang wrote a deliberately flawed scroll with warnings about the technique's costs, hid it in a wooden box, and tested two of its weaker forms, injuring and exhausting himself.
• When Uchiha Ning noticed that he had grown taller, Uchiha Yinglang innocently blamed his self-created breathing technique and began spreading the explanation he planned to use later.

In Year 5 of Konoha, Uchiha Yinglang broke through a frozen river to catch a fish for his sick mother, Uchiha Ning. His act spread through the clan as a story of filial devotion, establishing the reputation he had hoped to build.

• Yinglang remembered how his mother’s illness began after she gathered firewood in the cold and decided to catch a fish for her.
• Yinglang smashed a hole in the frozen river, caught a fish, and carried it home while passing clansmen watched.
• Yinglang told Uchiha Ning he had caught the fish so she could make soup, and she tearfully embraced him.
• Uchiha clansmen spread an embellished story about Yinglang’s devotion and resilience, strengthening his reputation in the compound.

At the Uchiha Clan’s spring peach distribution, Uchiha Yinglang gave up the largest fruit and chose a small green peach, earning widespread praise for his consideration. Uchiha Gen quietly took notice of him, while Uchiha Ning wondered at her son’s unusual sensibility.

• Uchiha Ken offered Uchiha Yinglang the biggest, ripest peach during the clan’s distribution.
• Uchiha Yinglang refused it and asked for the smallest green peach, saying the larger ones should go to older people and those who needed them more.
• The clanspeople praised Yinglang’s manners, and Uchiha Ken gave him the small peach he had chosen.
• Uchiha Gen watched Yinglang accept the praise without conceit and began paying attention to him.
• Uchiha Ning asked Yinglang whether he truly preferred the small peach, and he assured her it would be sweet too.

Uchiha Yinglang’s reputation for filial devotion and modesty earned him a place as Uchiha Gen’s son-in-law and heir, elevating him into the clan’s power circle. Hashirama Senju welcomed the child’s apparent Will of Fire, while Tobirama Senju warned that Yinglang’s rapid rise might conceal a deeper plan and ordered him watched.

• Uchiha Gen asked Uchiha Ning to let Yinglang marry his daughter Ruri and inherit his household and influence, and Ning accepted.
• Uchiha Yinglang moved into Uchiha Gen’s household and became the core elder’s tacitly acknowledged heir, prompting envy and speculation throughout the clan.
• An Anbu subordinate reported Yinglang’s rise to Hashirama Senju, who remembered the boy’s acts of filial devotion and courtesy.
• Tobirama Senju suspected Yinglang’s reputation had grown too quickly and urged caution toward the Uchiha.
• Hashirama Senju told Tobirama to keep watch on Yinglang and see how the child developed.

In Summer of Year 6, Yinglang moved into Uchiha Gen’s residence and began living and training under the elder’s supervision. After revealing four chakra affinities and starting basic instruction, Yinglang settled into a routine that let him cultivate a plausible public talent while secretly continuing to develop his dragon essence.

• Uchiha Ning brought Yinglang to Uchiha Gen’s residence, where Gen introduced his daughter, Uchiha Ruri, and set rules for Yinglang as his pupil.
• Yinglang overheard an Uchiha clansman criticize Tobirama Senju’s treatment of the clan and lament Madara Uchiha’s departure, while Gen urged restraint and stability.
• Ruri told Yinglang that Gen wanted him to test his chakra affinities, and Gen introduced Uchiha Shinichi as his instructor in taijutsu and ninja tools.
• Yinglang used a controlled strand of chakra to make the testing paper show fire, wind, lightning, and Yin Release affinities.
• Gen assigned Yinglang daily basic training with Shinichi, chakra practice, and later lessons in Fire Release and genjutsu, while Yinglang continued secretly cultivating dragon essence.

Yinglang maintained his public image as a modest young chakra trainee while secretly advancing his dragon essence cultivation and conducting experiments in a hidden laboratory. He developed a prototype Thunderclap Bomb and prepared to demonstrate Fire Release for Elder Xuan that afternoon.

• Yinglang reviewed his hidden cultivation and public chakra progress, then learned from Uchiha Ruri that Elder Xuan would inspect his Fire Release that afternoon.
• Yinglang entered his underground laboratory and reviewed his research on Mermaid Flesh, which had yielded five Pseudo-Immortality Pills and ten weaker Fake Immortality Pills.
• Yinglang examined his Thunderclap Bomb and Storm Release technique concepts, then tested an embryonic Thunderclap Bomb that flew under control but dissipated without exploding.
• Yinglang secured his research and laboratory, returned to the backyard training ground, and continued preparing for Elder Xuan's inspection.

Elder Xuan discussed Yuanguang Uchiha’s proposed elite training policy with Liuli and Yinglang, who exposed how it would benefit Yuanguang’s son and favored families. After Yinglang refused to attend the Ninja Academy, Elder Xuan exempted him from the policy and committed to training him himself.

• Elder Xuan told Liuli and Yinglang that Yuanguang had proposed assessing clan children and concentrating resources on selected elite prospects.
• Yinglang argued that Yuanguang’s policy would advantage his son Kagami and other favored families while leaving the rest behind.
• Elder Xuan warned Liuli and Yinglang that the clan would likely approve a trial of the proposal and ordered them to keep Yinglang’s remarks secret.
• Liuli asked whether Yinglang would face assessment when he turned six, and Elder Xuan asked if he wanted to attend the Ninja Academy.
• Yinglang rejected the academy, explaining that the clan could teach him its basic skills, so Elder Xuan exempted him from assessment and assigned his training to Shinichi, himself, and Liuli.
• Elder Xuan said he would let Yuanguang carry out his policy while training his own heir, but vowed that the Uchiha must not produce another Yuanguang.

After the Uchiha clan announced its Elite Seed policy, Yinglang explained to his mother that Elder Xuan’s influence would secure him a place without an assessment. He then offered an unused place to Yutian in exchange for future loyalty, setting a new course for both of them.

• The Uchiha clan announced an assessment for one hundred Elite Seed places, while clan members reacted with hope and worry.
• Uchiha Ning asked Yinglang whether he would have to compete, and Yinglang explained that the elders would reserve places for their own protégés.
• Yinglang told his mother that Elder Xuan would give him a place directly and asked her to bring Yutian to meet him the next evening.
• Yinglang offered Yutian an Elite Seed place, resources, and the Uchiha surname in exchange for training hard and helping him when needed.
• Yutian accepted Yinglang’s terms, and Yinglang said Elder Xuan would arrange a formal test before Yutian entered the Elite Seed dormitory.

The elite list included five-year-old Uchiha Yinglang and Uchiha Yutian, provoking accusations that Elder Xuan had disregarded the rules. After Yinglang returned home with gifts and living expenses, he and Uchiha Ning faced a sudden shift in how their neighbors treated them.

• The clan posted the elite list, and onlookers questioned Yinglang’s age and Yutian’s family background while accusing the elders of rigging the selection.
• Aunt Haruko told Uchiha Ning that Yinglang had made the list, and Ning noticed the neighbors’ congratulations carried flattery and calculation.
• Yinglang returned with a servant carrying gifts from Elder Xuan, and the neighborhood children and Aunt Haruko treated him with unusual deference.
• Aunt Matsuko offered Yinglang rice cakes, but he paid her for them, explaining that he could no longer accept things for free.
• Yinglang told Uchiha Ning that his status had changed and held her hand as she worried about the neighbors’ behavior.

Uchiha Yinglang attended the first morning of elite training, where Tetsu Uchiha put the children through exhausting conditioning and horse-stance practice. Yinglang noticed Yutian enduring the exercises and watched Kagami Uchiha attract the attention of other well-connected children during the break.

• Uchiha Yinglang arrived at the training ground and saw Yutian standing apart from the other children.
• Tetsu Uchiha introduced himself as the instructor for the next three months and ordered the children to run twenty laps.
• Yinglang paced himself through the run, while Yutian also finished without collapsing.
• Tetsu Uchiha ordered the children to hold a horse stance, and Yinglang concealed how easily he endured it.
• Yinglang recognized Kagami Uchiha and inwardly condemned his condescending manner and allegiance to Konoha.
• After the exercise, several well-dressed children gathered around Kagami, offering him water and conversation.

Yutian endured isolation and struggled through his first shuriken practice, while Yinglang quietly offered advice that steadied him. Meanwhile, Yuanguang Uchiha planned to use Kagami and the other children to pressure Yutian into leaving the elite program.

• Kagami rebuked a child who insulted Yutian, though he showed no sympathy for Yutian himself.
• Yutian struggled with shuriken practice until his third throw stuck in the target, and Yinglang advised him to lower his wrist and use his waist for power.
• Yinglang walked with Yutian after training, gave him further guidance, and told him to ask for help if he needed it.
• Yuanguang and his aide discussed Yutian’s admission, and Yuanguang ordered the aide to arrange extra practice and chances for Yutian to spar with Kagami and the others.

Yutian repeatedly failed the water-walking test and was sent away by Tetsu Uchiha, while Yinglang recognized that Yuanguang Uchiha’s faction had sabotaged his chakra-control instruction. Yinglang prepared to secretly guide Yutian using his Sound-to-Thread technique.

• Yutian failed his thirteenth attempt at water walking, fell into the pool, and was mocked by the other children.
• Tetsu Uchiha ordered Yutian to stop water-walking practice and work on basic chakra control alone at the edge of the training ground.
• Yinglang realized that Yuanguang Uchiha’s faction had deliberately misled Yutian through the theory lessons, causing his repeated failures.
• Yinglang focused his Sound-to-Thread technique on Yutian, preparing to send him a private message from across the training ground.

Yinglang secretly guided Yutian through a chakra-control method that helped him succeed for the first time, then invited him to meet in the pine grove. After Yinglang admitted he had sent the voice and said the theory lessons had been tampered with, Yutian asked why he was helping him.

• A mysterious voice told Yutian to guide his chakra from his abdomen through his legs and soles toward the water basin, and he made the water ripple and rise.
• Yutian used the voice’s instructions to lift the basin’s water to its rim without spilling, then heard a summons to the pine grove after training.
• During the afternoon lesson, Yutian imagined chakra through simple sensory images and began to grasp the threshold of chakra nature transformation.
• Yutian went to the pine grove, where Yinglang admitted he had been speaking to him secretly and called the method a shortcut suited to him.
• Yinglang said Yuanguang had tampered with the theory lessons, and Yutian asked why Yinglang was going so far to help him.
