  • Yang Lingrui unleashed Divine Wind Pursues Life, a technique that fused the wind and killing paths, but Yun Xiwu scattered it with a cyan wind blade.

Ch. 766Dao Arises from the Heart

The chapter explained the Unreturning Wind Cave, the Fuyao Sect’s inherited treasure, and why the sect opened the cave to Wind Dao cultivators every twelve years. It revealed that Yun Xiwu had refused to inherit the Fuyao ancestor’s orthodoxy, choosing instead to pursue her own Wind Dao.

  • Huo Yuan said the aura he had sensed might be the Sign of Fetal Movement.

Ch. 768An Abnormal Matter

Murong Zhenlin, Jia Huarai, and Huo Yuan investigated an abnormal nine-year pregnancy in the Eastern Wilderness and suspected it was connected to the region’s military buildup. After dispatching Huo Yuan and Jia Huarai to investigate and reinforce the frontier, Murong Zhenlin used the Murong Clan’s secret art and realized that his earlier difficulties with deduction had stemmed from the Yang Clan’s rising fortune.

  • Jia Huarai confirmed that the aura he had sensed over the Eastern Wasteland Dynasty matched the fetal movement Huo Yuan had previously detected, and the three concluded the pregnancy had lasted about nine years.

  • Murong Zhenlin gave Jia Huarai deployment orders and sent him to support Consort Xi on the eastern frontier.
  • Alone in the dragon vein, Murong Zhenlin used the Murong Clan’s secret deduction art and traced its former suppression to the Yang Clan’s growing fortune.

Ch. 769Deduction

Murong Zhenlin’s deduction revealed that the Eastern Wilderness First Prince’s dragon fortune was bound by red ribbons controlled by his pregnant teacher, and he narrowly escaped an attack from the unborn Yuan'er. The teacher blamed Murong to the First Prince and urged their plans forward, while Yuchi Zhenlong vowed revenge and promised to gather blood essence for the child.

  • Murong Zhenlin deduced that the Eastern Wilderness First Prince’s dragon shadow was shackled by two red ribbons and suspected his teacher was using him to secure power for her unborn child.

Ch. 770Affairs of the Eastern Wilderness

The First Prince revealed a grotesque, artificially assembled dragon body while secretly helping his pregnant teacher nurture Yuan'er, unaware that she was using him to gather the Imperial Blood Essences and reunite Eastern Wilderness's national fortune. After a six-month lull at the Yang Family Sacred Land, Chen Yang assembled the others to examine the first Two-Dao Spirit Pill he and Chen Huaien had made.

  • The First Prince showed his teacher his patchwork True Dragon Body and gave her True Dragon Breath to nourish Yuan'er, further shortening his lifespan.

  • Chen Yang revealed the first Two-Dao Spirit Pill made with Chen Huaien and asked the assembled group to assess whether it could remake a body and exchange its bones.

Ch. 771Observing the Pill

Chen Yang learned that Dao Integration had altered the medicinal power in the replicated pill, making most of it difficult for mortal cultivators to absorb. Liuli traced the problem to the pill being perfected too early, and the chapter ended with her showing Chen Yang crystals of the altered medicinal power.

  • Yu Xun told Chen Yang that the pill might nourish blood and vitality but would probably not renew the body because Dao Integration had changed how its medicinal power was stored.
  • Liuli questioned Chen Huaien about the pill’s refining time, fire, and flaws, then identified the Immortal Path Method’s near-perfect refinement as the cause of the problem.
  • Chen Yang realized the pill needed room for the later methods to take effect, rather than reaching perfection before their final step.
  • Liuli opened a corner of the manifested pill and showed Chen Yang crystals of altered medicinal power that mortal cultivators could scarcely absorb.

Ch. 772Pooling Wisdom, Combining Theory with Practice

Chen Yang and the others developed a new method for refining Dao Integration pills by analyzing their failed first attempt and combining theory with repeated practice.

  • After hours of analysis, Chen Yang devised a revised method, and Chen Huaien spent three months refining stable pill bases.

  • Chen Yang examined a pill and realized his earlier mistake had been assuming that adding more divine power would always improve the result.

Ch. 773Pill Completed

Ch. 774Yuanxing's Resolve

Chen Yang evaluated Yang Yuanxing as the best candidate for rebirth through blood transformation because of his ordinary aptitude, early cultivation stage, and dedication to the Yang Clan. After hearing Yang Yuanxing’s resolve to shoulder greater responsibilities, Chen Yang gave him seven Blood Forging Marrow Transformation Pills.

  • Elder Yu told the two children to focus on cultivation and treat it as a way to revive the Lineage.
