Battle Through the Heavens: Heavenly comprehension

Upon upgrading to the "Innate Fetal Breathing Technique 2.0", Qin Yueyao's body seemed to transform into a small black hole, continuously absorbing the surrounding energy of heaven and earth.

However, the effect was extremely subtle, making it nearly impossible for ordinary people to detect.

That said, Yao Lao, hidden within the ancient ring on Qin Yueyao's hand, could still sense external changes despite his severely injured state.

"The energy of heaven and earth is converging... what is going on???"

With his vast experience as the continent's top alchemist, Yao Lao naturally noticed the unusual phenomenon occurring with Qin Yueyao—and its origin was unmistakably tied to the child she was carrying.

"Someone actually cultivating in the womb?!" Yao Lao was utterly stunned.

Although "fetal cultivation" was often used as an exaggerated metaphor to describe prodigies with terrifyingly fast cultivation speeds, everyone knew it was utterly impossible in reality.

How could one cultivate before even growing up?

Pushing through his exhaustion, Yao Lao reviewed all the extraordinary physiques he knew of, but none matched this truly heaven-defying ability.

"For this child to cultivate in the womb… could he possess the potential to become a Dou Di ?" Yao Lao's heart flashed with an unthinkable notion.

Typically, the Dou Qi stage was primarily for refining the foundation, focusing not on the speed of cultivation but on the thoroughness of one's groundwork.

Some prodigies even intentionally suppressed their breakthroughs to ensure a solid foundation.

For this child to begin cultivating in the womb, his foundation at birth would already far surpass those who started at five or six years old. This level of aptitude was nothing short of monstrous.

Yao Lao, whose passion had long cooled, suddenly found his heart ignited once again.

However, given his current weakened state, all he could do was wait patiently for this peerless prodigy to be born before enacting his plans.

Having lived in this world for some time, Xiao Yan had pieced together bits of information from overheard conversations, gradually understanding the nature of this world.

Although it took him a while to realize, once Xiao Yan learned about the family he had been reborn into, he was genuinely shocked.

He had transmigrated into a fantasy world.

Not just any fantasy world, but one he was quite familiar with—the Dou Qi Continent.

What's more, he had become the protagonist of this world.

Upon processing this chain of revelations, Xiao Yan sat in stunned silence for a full two and a half minutes.

Now aware of the world he was in, Xiao Yan's heaven-defying comprehension finally had a clear purpose.

Previously, due to his lack of knowledge about the world he was in, Xiao Yan's mind had been filled with countless wild ideas but no concrete anchor to act upon.

Those ideas had been far too ambitious, and Xiao Yan hadn't been sure if his comprehension alone could realize them—or how long it might take.

But now that he knew he was in the Dou Qi Continent, Xiao Yan had a definite direction to pursue.

The effects of the "Innate Fetal Breathing Technique 2.0" had been deduced and developed based on his understanding of Dou Qi's properties.

Of course, Xiao Yan didn't yet know exactly how Dou Qi was cultivated.

However, he did understand the fundamental benefits of Dou Qi, just as he understood the advantages of innate energy.

With the support of his heaven-defying comprehension, Xiao Yan spent about a month in deep insight and managed to create a technique with effects nearly identical to Dou Qi's.

Dou Qi was a gentle form of energy whose primary function was to strengthen the meridians, refine the body, and establish a strong foundation.

Only by building a solid foundation could one avoid the eventual collapse of their meridians under the strain of increasingly powerful Dou Qi, a catastrophe that could lead to death.

The "Innate Fetal Breathing Technique 2.0" allowed Xiao Yan to continue enjoying the benefits of Dou Qi even beyond the initial foundational stage. For the mother, these effects were immensely beneficial, akin to an unparalleled cleansing and refinement.

After learning his true identity, Xiao Yan also came to realize that his mother and grandfather in this life had tragically short lifespans.

Driven by this knowledge, Xiao Yan dedicated himself to the study and refinement of cultivation techniques, sparing no effort except for the necessary time spent resting.

Xiao Yan could not yet resolve the matter of his grandfather Xiao Lin's enemies, so his priority was to strengthen his mother's physical condition as much as possible.

Although the "Innate Fetal Breathing Technique 2.0" was excellent, it still fell short of his goals.

However, advancing beyond the 2.0 version of this technique was no easy task—especially for someone with virtually no prior cultivation experience.

Xiao Yan was, after all, originally from Earth's Blue Star. While he had read countless novels, his actual cultivation experience only began after transmigrating. It was only through his heaven-defying comprehension that he created the "Innate Fetal Breathing Technique" and later upgraded it to the 2.0 version using some Dou Qi effects.

Beyond this, Xiao Yan's mind lacked even the most basic foundational knowledge to support further advancement. At this point, he was relying entirely on his extraordinary comprehension to innovate.

As the saying goes, "A skilled woman cannot cook without rice." This perfectly described Xiao Yan's current predicament.

Three months passed.

[Through further deduction of the "Innate Fetal Breathing Technique 2.0," and after many days of cultivation and research, you had an epiphany and created the "Innate Chaos Qi Technique."]

**[Innate Chaos Qi Technique: Using one's innate energy as a foundation, this technique nourishes and strengthens both the user and the mother by guiding the absorption and refinement of heaven and earth energy. It enhances the physical constitution and innate talent of both the mother and child, and enables the early cultivation of Dou Qi.

Additionally, as innate energy continues to improve, the mother will experience increasingly profound benefits, including advanced cleansing and refinement effects. The technique's overall effectiveness will also be amplified.]**

[Note: Only more developed fetuses can practice this technique.]

Seeing that the name of the technique had even changed, Xiao Yan knew his three months of effort had paid off.

With the nourishment of innate energy and the passage of time, his body had now developed meridians, allowing him to begin cultivating Dou Qi.

But cultivating alone? What was the point of that?

Guiding his pregnant mother to cultivate alongside him—that was what a truly powerful fetal cultivation technique should achieve.

Still, Xiao Yan knew this would likely be the peak of his cultivation during his fetal stage.

It wasn't because his extraordinary comprehension had failed him, but because time was running out.

By the time Xiao Yan could have another epiphany and create a new technique, he would probably already be born.

Further refining techniques specifically for the fetal stage would no longer hold much significance.

After all, the cultivation knowledge stored in Xiao Yan's mind was quite limited. Developing this third version of the technique had already pushed him to his limits.

Upgrading this already exceptional technique again in a short period of time would be nearly impossible.

As Xiao Yan began cultivating the "Innate Chaos Qi Technique," strange phenomena began to occur in the Xiao Clan.

Following the appearance of the household's "big eater" (referring to Madam Qin Yueyao), yet another remarkable development unfolded: Qin Yueyao's strength, which was at the Dou Shi level, began to skyrocket.

In no time, she had surpassed her husband, Xiao Zhan, and her cultivation speed was only continuing to accelerate.

Only a few people were privy to this phenomenon—Qin Yueyao, Xiao Zhan, and Xiao Lin.

Xiao Lin, however, simply laughed heartily and said, "My grandson clearly has an extraordinary constitution. That's why, Yueyao, you're reaping the benefits and enjoying such blessings. This is a great fortune for our Xiao Clan. There's no need to worry—just wait patiently for his birth."
