The blood is ready and can aid Huang in his transformation!
The Immortal Platform Mountain is a sacred land left behind by a supreme Immortal King of the past. After the great war of the Immortal Ancient Era, even an Undying King once came here to heal.
“Let us begin.”
The supreme being of the Imperial Clan spoke. No matter what, they had to overcome this hurdle first—restoring Huang to his former state. Whether to kill or punish him could be decided later.
“I hope the Undying King merely seeks something from his head and not some reason to value him!” another supreme being remarked.
If that were the case, killing Huang would become far more difficult.
Chi Meng Hong and a few others retreated far away, forbidden from approaching for now, as this place was about to undergo a drastic change.
Chi Meng Hong’s eyes were icy. As a member of the Imperial Clan, he burned with the desire to slay key figures from the Imperial Pass, especially after one of his clan’s supreme beings had been captured not long ago.
The small bone jar opened with an eerie sound.
Then, faint crimson droplets of blood spilled from the jar—just a single drop, yet it exuded a terrifying aura.
It was as if an entire ocean had condensed into that drop, carrying boundless power.
Even the supreme beings were moved, staring intently at the ancient blood. In a daze, they saw countless stars swirling within it.
Was this an illusion? Or merely some extraordinary phenomenon?
They sighed. The value of this drop of blood was immense. Bestowed upon any junior disciple, it would surely bring them unparalleled fortune.
Yet now, it was to be given to Huang.
The blood descended, transforming into faint crimson threads in the void, spreading toward Shi Hao like a net.
Faintly, thunder rumbled, and lightning flashed!
The blood threads shimmered with increasing intensity, crackling with thunderous energy, unleashing an extraordinary force.
Blood like thunder!
A single drop seemed to conceal the primordial power of the heavens and earth—this was the legacy of the Fallen Blood Phoenix.
Boom!
Finally, a deafening roar shook the world as the crimson threads intertwined, covering Shi Hao and seeping into his body.
“Guard him!” a supreme being commanded.
The situation was complex and perilous. They had to protect Shi Hao, ensuring his safety. If the blood threads destroyed him, they would have no way to answer to their ancestors.
The supreme beings acted in unison, invoking ancestral techniques to temper the blood’s power, preventing it from overwhelming Shi Hao.
His head, in particular, was heavily shielded—at first, the drop of blood wasn’t even allowed to touch it.
Finally, the blood dissolved into threads, carrying an astonishing aura as it seeped into Shi Hao’s limbs and bones.
His body was in ruins—though human-shaped, it was pieced together, its order and laws long severed.
His cultivation was broken, his magic power severed. His condition was dire.
Moreover, while his soul had stabilized and was recovering, hidden dangers remained.
In short, his situation was still precarious. To return to his peak, he needed a complete metamorphosis—to break free from this state of near-death.
This was why the Phoenix Blood had been sought.
Though rare treasures and medicines were not scarce in the world, few could truly allow a being to rise from ashes like a phoenix reborn in flames.
Perhaps the true blood of the Phoenix lineage was one of the only viable options.
Once the drop of blood entered his body, an extraordinary transformation began.
Boom!
A colossal bolt of lightning erupted outside Shi Hao’s body, deafening in its intensity.
Even the supreme beings were startled, swiftly acting to shield him.
Was this life-saving Phoenix Blood? If such power exploded within him, wouldn’t it destroy him entirely?
After all, his body was already crippled, with no resistance left.
Fortunately, the massive lightning manifested outside his body.
“The blood has entered, yet the lightning appears externally. How strange!”
They sighed in relief—it had been a false alarm.
The next moment, Shi Hao’s body began to swell as if countless flood dragons were slithering beneath his skin, coursing through his flesh and blood.
The force was tyrannical, surging rapidly, causing his body to bulge unnaturally in places.
Faintly, the sound of a phoenix’s cry echoed, as if a true phoenix had transformed from multicolored brilliance into a crimson abomination—a Fallen Blood Phoenix!
Shi Hao himself felt it most profoundly, witnessing visions unfold before him.
On a vast, ancient land, towering trees and savage beasts roamed. A blood phoenix spread its wings, tearing through the heavens, shattering star rivers, slaughtering from one battlefield to another.
It fought Undying beings, slew true immortals.
Madness incarnate—this was the Fallen Blood Phoenix.
These fragmented images were imprints within the bloodline, remnants of its ancestral legacy.
The drop of blood dispersed evenly within him, unleashing unimaginable power.
Shi Hao’s flesh tingled, his soul tensed, as an inexplicable force spread, mending his wounds and soothing his spirit.
The true blood of the Blood Phoenix was peerless—this was only the beginning.
If this continued, Shi Hao would surely recover, reforged into a body of treasure.
Boom!
Suddenly, the true blood quaked within him, roaring like thunder, stirring his stagnant blood to life. His lifeless body was now awakening.
“Such potent effects—this truly defies the heavens,” a supreme being marveled.
The moment the precious blood fused with Shi Hao’s flesh, it began tempering him, restoring vitality to his ruined form.
Rumble!
A radiant light burst from Shi Hao’s body, rendering it nearly transparent—an effect of the Phoenix Blood.
The drop had spread throughout his body, save for his shielded head, illuminating every inch with its glow.
“Hmm? It’s turning scarlet?”
A supreme being was astonished. Through Shi Hao’s translucent form, they saw the blood shift from dark crimson to vivid red.
But then, an inky black light surged from his body, coating his skin—an unforeseen anomaly.
“The dark hue of the Phoenix Blood must be linked to this black radiance,” a supreme being mused, frowning.
They realized the blood contained two forces—scarlet and black. The former was the blood itself, the latter a shadowy aura.
“For now, it harms him not. Instead, it aids his rebirth, restoring vitality and drawing the complete laws of the world into his body.”
This was a process of starting anew, of rising from ruin like a grand palace rebuilt upon ashes.
Shi Hao’s cultivation had been shattered, but now, with this blood, his original power—perhaps even greater—was being reborn.
Whoosh!
Flames erupted from Shi Hao’s body, engulfing him in a blazing inferno.
Faintly, an ancient phoenix seemed to soar within the fire, shrieking as if charging through time itself.
The scarlet blood within him and the black light outside merged once more, intensifying the flames to a terrifying degree.
Shi Hao became like a furnace, a volcano of power.
At the same time, an overwhelming life force radiated from him, and the complete laws of heaven and earth descended upon him.
This was an astonishing spectacle, all triggered by a single drop of ancient Phoenix Blood!
“Indeed, though the scene is spectacular, this is how it should be. The so-called ‘Phoenix Rebirth in Flames’ is precisely this!” The Imperial Clan supreme being nodded, eyes blazing with fervor.
He watched intently, for even a junior’s experience could offer enlightenment.
Shi Hao’s body, wrapped in flames, healed rapidly. The flawless laws descending from the sky were swallowed by the fire.
This was no ordinary flame—it resonated with the chains of order, clinking like metal.
Brilliant divine chains fell from the void, piercing Shi Hao’s flesh—a breathtaking sight.
Whoosh!
As if swept by a gale, the flames surged higher, engulfing the peak of Immortal Platform Mountain.
The legend of rebirth through fire was unfolding in its full glory. A vast life force and the essence of complete laws intertwined, surging and spreading.
Yet, Shi Hao’s mind remained taut with tension!
