The Infant Nurtured Within, the Root of Cultivation

"Women are associated with the yin number, and their womb contains the uterus!"

Competence brings confidence, and when a woman has enough inner strength, she tends to disregard the boundaries between men and women.

Ren Anran stood gracefully in the center of Emperor Luo Taizong's bedchamber, her hands cradling her belly.

In the past, a woman's slightly protruding belly was not considered important. Ren Yisheng Ren Anran was able to conceive children with the help of embryo technology. She never regarded her body as a necessity for reproduction, and her relationship with Zhang Xuezhou was not bound by procreation or marriage.

Having taken a detached view of many things, Ren Anran never expected that her entry into the Divine Ability Realm would be based on something she had previously overlooked.

She gently stroked her abdomen, feeling a force within her belly that seemed to clap, a force so strong it could even be seen through her skin, as if a child was growing inside her.

"Having a uterus in the womb is one thing, but... creating a person out of thin air is extremely rare!"

Not to mention Zhang Xuezhou's astonishment, even Wang Haoran, who had just forcibly broken through his cultivation realm and was in great pain, changed his expression.

Among the crowd, only Wang Haoran, who had truly broken through his cultivation level, was able to come and watch.

As Zhang Xuezhou said, cultivators at the Divine Ability Realm have an extremely strong pull on the energy of cultivators at lower realms. Even Ren Yisheng, who had previously mentioned that he was far from breaking through, fell into a state of confusion, as if he were in a trance, as if he were being pulled by this energy and experiencing something.

"An Ran, are you a real child or a fake one?"

Wang Haoran glanced at Ren Anran several times, then looked at Zhang Xuezhou with a somewhat strange expression, but he forced himself to ask another question.

"This is the baby growing inside me!"

Ren Anran pointed to her abdomen, and with a flick of the purple Law Power light in her hand, she spat out a purple ball the size of a fist.

The purple sphere, entwined with Divine Ability Law Power, was placed in the center of Ren Anran's palm, resembling a sequence lock form of the Divine Ability Realm.

But as Ren Anran dissipated the Law Power on the purple sphere, a woman clad in golden armor began to emerge.

Zhang Xuezhou glanced at Ren Anran, then at the woman in Ren Anran's palm, and couldn't help but gasp.

The two look exactly alike, which is not surprising, since the form condensed by the Yang Soul Incarnation Technique is based on the original body.

What truly surprised Zhang Xuezhou was that this object, resembling a Yang Soul, could influence the strength of the Law Power within Ren Anran's body, unlike Zhang Xuezhou's Yang Soul, which was a separate entity that could only continuously absorb and influence the Law Power of its host.

This situation is almost identical to the effect of sequence locks on Gene Sequence.

"It is also the foundation of my cultivation!"

An unnatural flush appeared on Ren Anran's face; the pain and injury from forcibly breaking through to the Divine Ability Realm were not enough to overshadow her joy.

The breakthrough in her cultivation level was not enough to make Ren Anran lose her composure; the joy in her heart was more about stepping into a new direction.

Just as Zhang Xuezhou sensed, the little figure in her palm seemed to belong to the Yang Soul, but in reality, it possessed a similar gene-pulling power to the sequence lock.

The Law Power within Ren Anran's body was drawn to the tiny figure in her abdomen, making Law Power Law Power within Ren Anran body highly elastic, as well as more resilient and enduring.

This change in Law Power will cause various Technique Method to change to varying degrees.

Simply put, it's stronger.

"With the Sequence Lock as its core, the Yang Soul Incarnation as its torso, the body as its furnace, and the Yin-Yang School's Realm Technique as its flames, it can be forged into an Infant. It can draw upon the Law Power and genetic power within my body, fusing these two forces almost perfectly together. It can solidify into reality or dissipate into nothingness, directly resolving the drawbacks of the Sequence Lock!"

Ren Anran pointed to the baby in her arms.

"What should we do? Are we going to keep carrying a child in our bellies at our age?" Wang Haoran exclaimed.

Ren Anran spoke eloquently and seemed to have forged his own new path, but Wang Haoran felt that the higher one climbed in cultivation, the more inhuman it seemed.

It's one thing for Gene Sequence to cause physical changes in those Sequence Holder, resulting in the emergence of characteristics of strange beasts and ferocious creatures, but Ren Anran is creating humans out of thin air.

Wang Haoran felt that he had always been open-minded and belonged to the new era who could accept new knowledge, but he really couldn't accept that there was a little thing in his belly.

"I don't have a uterus. Will I need to have one implanted to advance my cultivation in the future?" Wang Haoran asked, looking somewhat bewildered.

"This..."

Ren Anran's expression froze.

When she was trying every possible way to embark on a new path of cultivation, Ren Anran had no time to think about so many things.

In Ren Anran's eyes, she only had the goal of success, and she would make the most of every available opportunity.

The sequence lock was eventually broken, and the Yang Soul incarnation enveloped the sequence lock within it, while her body in turn enveloped the Yang Soul.

This layered envelopment, guided by 'enlightenment', led to a unified connection between the layers, ultimately resulting in her unique Yang Soul Incarnation Divine Ability, which manifested in the center of her palm.

"As long as one hasn't reached the Seventh Sequence, implanting a uterus in the body isn't difficult; Old Ren can perform this surgery," Wang Haoran muttered to himself hesitantly. "That's it... Could it be that if we continue cultivating in this way, our genders will tend towards homogeneity?"

"No rush. The worst thing is having no precedent," Zhang Xuezhou waved his hand and said, "But as long as there are precedents to refer to, appropriate modifications and adjustments are not impossible!"

Wang Haoran felt awkward, while Zhang Xuezhou thought there might be other ways to achieve the desired outcome.

"I'm merely demonstrating the feasibility of cultivation after the fusion of Yin and Yang," Ren Anran said. "We can continuously strengthen it, and in turn, refine and enhance our cultivation through Realm Technique. This doesn't require you to completely copy it during your cultivation!"

Ren Anran blew a breath into the little figure in her palm, and the little figure instantly transformed into a thin silhouette about the same height as Ren Anran.

"It can function normally with all the Technique Method and Gene Fighting Technique we can unleash," Ren Anran said.

Ren Anran placed the jade token on the figure, and a vast amount of Spiritual Qi gathered, making the sparse figure appear more solid.

"Wonderful!"

Zhang Xuezhou repeatedly expressed his admiration.

The Yin-Yang School's man-eating Realm Technique eventually evolved into one that consumed the user, while the user could then grow stronger through cultivation. This created a rather unique cycle, making the originally terrifying Realm Technique seem normal.

However, things are not all good. Ren Anran's cultivation method undoubtedly relies too much on the 'infant', which has unavoidable drawbacks. For example, this figure can use Technique Method, but cannot take pills to benefit the body.

This means that many powerful medicines will have a smaller effect when Ren Anran is cultivating, as this kind of cultivation will place great emphasis on the infusion of Spiritual Qi.

Without a Spiritual Qi environment, it would be difficult for Ren Anran's method of cultivation to progress.

This clearly needs improvement.

Ren Anran's path ahead is not fixed, but rather subject to change; taking the first step at this point is already quite remarkable.

Perhaps it was the second time the Divine Ability of the Yang Soul Incarnation Technique was selectively chosen, or perhaps it was the third time.

Zhang Xuezhou felt that most of the fog blocking his path had been swept away, and with proper adjustments, it might be able to accommodate many cultivators.

Just like their sequence lock defects, Ren Anran's current approach is only suitable for himself, and even Zhang Xuezhou cannot replicate it at present.

However, many obstacles will be cleared away, and the cultivation of the latter three realms of the Yin-Yang School will surely be successful.
