Chapter 76

###**I. Maple Sugar Reflects Shadows · Child Asks for Fate**

The moment the child's fingertips touched the sugar painting stall, three thousand sugar threads surged from Lin Jin's sleeves. The sugar threads wound into a mirror, reflecting a horrifying scene—a Burial Coffin totem slowly appeared on the back of the child's neck, and bronze fire from Lin Xuan leaped in the depths of his pupils!

"Big brother, I want to carve a sugar figurine of Fairy Ling Yue." The child grinned, his mouth splitting to his ears. The moment the sugar spoon touched the sugar board, the Nirvana pattern behind Ao Li's back suddenly burned with pain, and the Ling Yue sugar figurine condensed from syrup wept black blood from its eye sockets: "Jin'er... this child is Lin Xuan's reincarnation seed..."

Before Lin Jin's sugar sword could be drawn, the entire sugar painting street suddenly curled into a cocoon. Eighty-one sword marks appeared on the cocoon wall, exactly the trajectory he had slashed when he destroyed his Dao foundation!

###**II. Asking the Dao in the Cocoon · Primordial Fragments**

The time flow rate inside the sugar cocoon changed drastically, a hundred years in the cocoon for a moment outside. Lin Jin carved the "Questioning Heart Formula" on the cocoon wall with his sugar sword, each carving seeping with Primordial Chaos Qi:

**"First question: Can the Red Dust Tribulation be crossed? **

The sugar painting Ling Yue suddenly raised her hand, pressing the Azure Dragon Ring into his brow;

**Second question: How to sever the causal line? **

Ninety thousand sugar threads descended in the cocoon, each tied to Ao Li of the past life;

**Third question: What is the end of non-delusion? **

The sugar cocoon suddenly became transparent, and ten thousand Chaos Realms outside were collapsing in unison!

The Nirvana pattern behind Ao Li's ear cracked, dropping half a charred alchemy classic—it was exactly the "Primordial Fragments" that Ao Zhan had not finished writing back then. The page touched the Primordial Chaos Qi, revealing scarlet annotations:

**"Lin Xuan uses ten thousand realms as a dish, refining the sugar heart into a lock. The one who breaks the situation must swallow..."**

The latter half of the handwriting was covered by syrup, vaguely seeing the two characters "swallow realm".

###**III. Sugar Sculpting Ten Thousand Realms · Burial Coffin Returns to Ruins**

The child's wild laughter shattered the sugar cocoon, his body swelling into a bronze sugar figurine. The miniature Chaos Realm held in his palm suddenly exploded, ten thousand sugar-sculpted cultivators kneeling and shouting:

**"Welcome the Coffin Master back to his position!"**

Lin Jin's sugar sword pierced the sugar figurine's heart, but the pine nut candy wrapper on the sword tassel suddenly wrapped around the sword tip: "Big brother can't bear to kill me?" The child tore open the sugar skin, revealing Lin Xuan's aged face, "After all, this sugar-sculpted body uses the fetal hair you left behind back then!"

The chaotic green lotus suddenly took root in the sugar figurine's crown, the lotus heart blooming with the memory spiritual sugar sealed by Ling Yue—the scene of Lin Xuan refining the infant's fetal hair into a sugar puppet deep in the earth fire of Medicine King Valley three hundred years ago was clearly visible!

###**IV. Fetal Hair Reverse Blade · Emotion Lock Dao Collapse**

Lin Jin tore off a wisp of green hair, the hair condensing into a sugar needle in the Primordial Chaos Qi. The moment the sugar needle pierced the sugar figurine's brow, ten thousand sugar-sculpted cultivators screamed in unison, bronze fetal hair flying out from their bodies—each hair was tied to fragments of Lin Jin's past life cause and effect!

Ao Li's Nirvana Fire suddenly wrapped around all the fetal hair, revealing a world-shaking secret technique in the fire:

**"Final Chapter of 'Primordial Burial Fire Art': Use yourself as a guide, transform sugar into a torch, burn the coffin and break reincarnation!"**

Lin Xuan's sugar-sculpted body suddenly ignited, and where the flames licked, the model of the newborn Chaos Realm appeared—every child in the sugar maple forest was repeating the moment of choosing a sugar painting, the causal lines tangled like a hemp ball!

###**V. Sugar Torch Burns Heart · No End No Beginning**

Lin Jin pierced his own heart with the sugar sword, the Primordial Chaos Qi mixed with sugar heart blood condensing into a torch. The firelight reflected the endgame of all reincarnations: no matter whether one chose to carve the past or sculpt a new life, Lin Xuan's incarnation would always stand before the sugar painting stall!

"So it's unsolvable..." Ao Li suddenly snatched the torch, the Nirvana Fire spreading all over her body along her hair tips, "Fellow Daoist Lin, remember to taste the osmanthus sugar this autumn..."

As she transformed into sugar flames and burned the sky, ten thousand Chaos Realms trembled in unison. Lin Xuan's screams were mixed with Ling Yue's sighs:

**"Jin'er, the true Primordial is..."**

Where the sugar ashes dissipated, only a piece of unmelted pine nut candy remained, with the child's childish handwriting added to the back of the candy wrapper:

**"Come back tomorrow to paint sugar figurines."**

###**Final Act · Maple Sugar Re-condenses**

Deep in the Chaos Sea, the burned sugar maple forest sprouted again. Amber-colored sugar frost hung from the branches, condensing into brand new realm stele inscriptions:

**"Questioning Heart Realm: Understanding sugar is not sugar**

**Binding Emotion Realm: Knowing suffering is not suffering**

**Non-Delusion Realm: Seeing the beginning is not the beginning"**

An old woman selling malt sugar came under the tree, with sugar figurines in the shape of Ao Li placed in her bamboo basket. When Lin Jin picked up the sugar figurine, the syrup suddenly softened, revealing the half Azure Dragon Ring hidden inside—with Ling Yue's carvings added to the ring surface:

**"Three miles east of the sugar shop, there is what your father left..."**
