When Mu Fenghua regained consciousness after her fall, she was reborn as an unborn infant in a world brimming with spiritual energy. She discovered she shared the womb with a twin brother who frantically absorbed her nutrients and life force, threatening her survival. She used her spiritual sense to examine him and began beating him with her tiny fists and feet to stop his stealing. After repeated beatings, the brother submitted, curling up obediently. Their mother Mu Yilan, a cultivator slowly weakening from the pregnancy, absorbed spiritual energy from the outside world, but the brother tried to monopolize it. Mu Fenghua again beat him, claiming all spiritual energy for herself, allowing her cultivation to rise rapidly from Qi Refining through Foundation Establishment. When their father Zhou Xinran appeared, he attacked Mu Yilan without warning, claiming he must kill the one he loves most to enter the Path of Ruthlessness. Mu Fenghua recognized this evil cultivation method. As Mu Yilan fled in panic, the uterine contractions signaled a miscarriage, but Mu Fenghua forced herself and her brother to be still to avoid adding burden. She continued absorbing spiritual energy, pushing her cultivation to the Golden Core stage even though she could not truly form a core inside the womb. The Heavenly Dao recognized this as a tribulation, and a massive black tribulation lightning descended, striking Zhou Xinran first because he stood too close, which the Heavenly Dao interpreted as intent to shield. Zhou Xinran was instantly reduced to ashes, saving Mu Fenghua and her mother. Mu Fenghua then dispersed the spiritual energy, causing the tribulation clouds to vanish. After this crisis, Mu Yilan recovered using high-grade healing pills from a storage bracelet, suggesting a hidden privileged background. Mu Fenghua deduced her mother was likely from a powerful family but had disguised her identity when marrying Zhou Xinran. Mu Yilan continued to nurture her pregnancy in a secluded courtyard with abundant spiritual energy. Mu Fenghua spent her time cultivating diligently, using a unique creation technique from her previous life to connect with a space within her spiritual sense. In that space slept her loyal spirit pets, whom she had sealed away when the cultivation world declined in her past life. Those spirit pets had transferred their spiritual energy to her before she sacrificed herself to stop evil cultivators from slaughtering mortals. Now reborn in a spiritually rich world, she was determined to break the seal and awaken her family-like companions. Her brother, still domineering, constantly fought for nutrients and comfort, but Mu Fenghua continued crushing his rebellion with her iron fists until he became docile, even nuzzling her for spiritual energy. When the time for birth came, Mu Yilan prepared for a difficult labor, but Mu Fenghua came out first smoothly, pinching her brother’s head to threaten him into following quickly. Mu Hanfeng was born obediently right after. Mu Yilan named the twins Mu Fenghua and Mu Hanfeng, taking her own surname. As babies, Mu Fenghua felt ashamed to nurse but soon competed with her brother, eating greedily to grow stronger than him. The brother cried loudly at first, but Mu Fenghua punched his mouth to silence him; thereafter, they both just whimpered to remind Mu Yilan when they needed care. Mu Fenghua grew up well-behaved to make her mother worry-free, while Mu Hanfeng was forced to be good under his sister’s constant discipline. Mu Fenghua aimed to use this rebirth to cultivate to her former peak power, unlock the seal on her spirit pets, and protect her new family from any future threats.
