Chapter 418: Reexamining the Clues
####【Ice Remains Star Rail】
Gongxu Yue's mechanical eye just touched the glacier surface, and the snowfield suddenly erupted with three hundred bronze light pillars. The surfaces of those pillars were covered with nursing suction cups, extracting the Star Sand residue beneath the ice. Ao Li's Inverse Scale instantly frosted over; she saw her Parallel World self frozen in the ice crystals—those dragon maidens were being pierced through the spine by bronze umbilical cords, delivering Golden Blood deep into the glacier.
"Cognitive pollution is materializing!" True Immortal Zixiao's sword edge sliced the ice, and within the Taiyi Pure Light a reflection of the North Star Tower appeared. The gears of the tower‑top armillary sphere were actually formed by interlocking ice‑crystal dragon teeth; whenever a light pillar flickered, quantum fluctuations of infant fetal hair swept across the snowfield.
Lín Jìn's Star Sand‑infused right hand pierced the ice surface, and Nirvana Fire rose upstream along the bronze light pillars. Within the flames a nursery's nutrient‑tube network materialized, its routing perfectly matching the Star Sand vein beneath the ice. He suddenly vomited blood laced with ice shards—an orphan list floating in his palm was turning to jade, becoming an access key for the nursing system.
####【Nursing Glacier】
Xuanyuan Hao's divine beast's claws split the ice mound, and the splashing ice foam condensed in the air into living script of the "Gui Xu Fetal Treasury Scripture". When the script fell to the ground, the entire snowfield suddenly collapsed into a two‑dimensional plane, and everyone saw three hundred dragon skeletons deep within the glacier forming a Klein Bottle topology. Each skeletal spine cavity secreted silver Colostrum, the milk flowing along bronze umbilical cords into the mother nest's Quantum Stomach.
"Watch your step!" Gongxu Yue's mechanism box suddenly fell apart, its gears interlocking with Star Sand to form an anti‑slip chain. Her mechanical eye's thermal imaging showed frozen wreckage of the Mo family's mechanism city buried beneath the snow—those gears were covered with infant tooth marks, and disinfectant from the nursery seeped from the bite marks.
Ao Li's dragon horns suddenly sprouted ice crystal circuits, and the ancestral dragon bloodline activated deep memories in the extreme cold. She saw the Dragon Clan, seventy thousand years ago, having built a nursing farm here, cultivating Star Sand with the brain‑marrow fluid of war captives. On the altar at the glacier's core, the First Generation mother nest was sucking the jade‑like spines of three hundred elders through bronze umbilical cords.
####【Quantum Nurturing】
When the group approached the glacier fissure, the cold wind suddenly materialized into countless ice crystal Xie Dai. Within each Xie Dai curled a baby with interwoven silver‑black hair, their umbilical cords directly inserted into the North Star Tower projection in the void. True Immortal Zixiao's Sword Qi swept across, piercing the quantum‑state Xie Dai and striking the Spiritual Vein—at the instant the ice cracked open, three hundred bronze umbilical cords erupted from the ground.
"Cognitive synchronization rate 91%..." Gongxu Yue's mechanical eye flashed a red warning. Her mechanical arm suddenly reversed, squeezing embryos coated in ice shards between the gears. Lín Jìn's Star Sand‑infused right hand automatically defended its master, but Nirvana Fire ignited the Star Sand milk mist in the air—within the exploding milk droplets a nursery surveillance feed appeared, projecting their current misery onto the observation screen of the infant Peiyangcang.
Ao Li's Inverse Scale vibrated at high frequency, and dragon flame in her throat condensed into an Absolute Zero breath. As the cold current swept the fissure, all ice crystal Xie Dai simultaneously opened their compound eyes, with living script from the "Shadow Demon Classic" pulsing deep within the pupils. Xuanyuan Hao's quantum‑enhanced beast claws tore open the void, pulling out a frozen Mechanical Uterus—this was the Mo family founder's modified reproductive system, continuously birthing miniature Black-robed People.
####【Temporal Marrow Condensation】
True Immortal Zixiao suddenly drove his sword into the ice, and the Taiyi split‑light Sword Qi pierced straight toward the core along the Star Sand vein. The glacier roared and split open a abyss, and everyone saw a gigantic Klein Bottle suspended deep in the mantle—its body entwined with a Möbius Strip formed from bronze umbilical cords, its surface etched with nursing numbers bearing the true names of the allied forces.
"Is that... my Dragon Marrow?" Ao Li's spine suddenly turned to transparent jade, the twelve dragon bones clearly forming a miniature model of a Klein Bottle. Gongxu Yue's mechanical eye auto‑focused, revealing that within each dragon bone curled a nursery infant Quantum Projection, each sucking the golden lacteal fluid seeping from the bottle wall.
Lín Jìn's Star Sand‑infused right hand suddenly burst, and Nirvana Fire, wrapped with ice crystals, drew a construction diagram of the North Star Tower in the void. When the final stroke was finished, the entire glacier began a Quantum Leap—what they stood on as snowfield was actually Star Sand milk ice, and the distant mountains turned out to be a nursing scaffold built from three hundred Dragon Clan skeletons.
####【Tail-locked Alarm】
Xuanyuan Hao's divine beast body suddenly stiffened, its quantum‑enhanced hair solidifying into bronze infusion tubes. His pupils became armillary sphere projections, displaying the real‑time status of the mother nest's stomach: the energy Ao Li released in earlier combat was being converted via the Star Sand vein into Colostrum, then transported through bronze umbilical cords to the cultivation chamber deep within the glacier.
"Seal the Spiritual Vein quickly!" True Immortal Zixiao's sword technique mutated, only to see Taiyi Pure Light refracted by ice crystals into a Nursing Emblem. Gongxu Yue's mechanism box expelled frozen gears, each tooth slot engraved with a reverse nursing equation—this was the lament of the Mo family founder frozen in time.
Ao Li's Inverse Scale detached and embedded into the glacier, its Absolute Zero breath etching Dragon Clan runes onto the Klein Bottle's surface. When the final character was completed, the entire icefield suddenly rang with three hundred infant cries—the Star Sand milk ice beneath their feet began to writhe, revealing the true names of everyone carved onto the Abyss Return Ruler.
