There is a legend.
There is a bird that soars beyond the nine heavens. It will not perch unless it is a phoenix tree, nor will it eat unless it is bamboo fruit. It lands once every five hundred years, and the day it lands is the day of Nirvana.
There is a legend.
A bird soars beyond the nine heavens, perching only on phoenix trees and feeding solely on bamboo seeds. It touches the ground once every five hundred years, and the day it lands is the day of its nirvana.
Each nirvana is a trial by fire and death.
After each nirvana, its feathers grow more splendid, its song clearer, and its spirit more profound. When it takes flight again, its radiant light will illuminate the entire world.
The phoenix rises from its ashes, reborn through fire.
The mangled body of the chick lay quietly, a pool of bright red blood like flames in the midst of burning.
At that moment, the blood that stained the earth seemed to come alive, like fire spirits encircling the chick’s body, as if paying homage to an ancient deity.
The sound of flowing water.
The blood ignited instantly, a flame full of vitality enveloping the chick’s body.
The burning continued, as if time and space itself were consumed by the flames.
The fire gradually transformed, the chick’s body encased in a red, stone-like shell. The shell did not burn, yet the flames seemed on the verge of extinguishing.
The phoenix’s nirvana is a testament to immense vitality, but the chick’s life force during its nirvana was unstable, as if it could end at any moment.
Inside the Celestial Furnace.
The dark arm had now become ethereal, a wisp of black mist struggling against the refining force.
Lin Fan’s body had long since dissipated, leaving only a crimson heart pulsating within the furnace. To his surprise, at the moment the Holy Demon Sect was annihilated, the patriarch had infused a drop of divine blood into him.
Now, it floated quietly above the heart, an ancient power enveloping Lin Fan’s last vestiges of life.
The divine blood radiated a dazzling light, but under the refining force, it too began to crumble.
Beside the heart, a faint figure stood silently, the last remnant of Lin Fan’s essence.
“Chick…”
At that moment, a subtle sensation reached Lin Fan’s heart—the chick’s life force.
The phoenix rises from its ashes, reborn through fire.
But the chick’s life force was now so weak it could barely sustain its rebirth. The flickering flames teetered on the edge of collapse, barely maintaining their existence.
The crimson heart pulsed faintly, a flame born of a single thought.
“Chick, hold on until the new master arrives,” Lin Fan murmured. The flame of a single thought quietly rose, bypassing the Celestial Furnace’s barriers, piercing through layers of resistance, and replacing the faltering flames, granting the chick eternal life.
…
The dark arm was on the verge of collapse, and Lin Fan knew that to destroy it, he would have to refine it alongside himself.
Lin Fan recalled the past, his thoughts a whirlwind. He had once dreamed of becoming a peerless figure, but it was all too difficult.
“Refine…”
In an instant, the Celestial Furnace was engulfed in chaos—no light, no flames, nothing, as if everything had returned to the primordial void.
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by one billion.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 18.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 19.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 20.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ advanced to ‘Eternal Indestructibility.'”
“‘Eternal Indestructibility’: The ultimate body-refining technique, transforming the true form, unrivaled and unbound.”
“Ding, congratulations, physical body level has reached the initial stage of the Great Heaven Realm.”
…
In the chaos, a drop of crimson blood slowly flowed into the void, and the black mist was also drawn into the refining force, merging with the chaos. Golden tadpole-like characters floated within, as if drawn by a mysterious force, dancing with joy.
At that moment, the Celestial Furnace brightened once more, and a single strand of hair floated quietly within.
The strand of hair emitted an unusual light, and in an instant, a warm current began to seep from it, growing larger and taking shape.
From a single strand, all things grew.
A head, a body, two arms, two legs, and a heart.
“Thump!”
The heart beat.
The figure seated cross-legged within the Celestial Furnace was none other than Lin Fan.
Now, Lin Fan sat naked, his skin glowing like white jade, with streams of light flowing across it, mesmerizing to behold.
At that moment, a wisp of black mist, as if reborn, slowly condensed into an arm. The arm was no longer black but tinged with red, gradually merging into Lin Fan’s right hand.
The drop of divine blood transformed into a vast sea of blood, merging with Lin Fan’s body, becoming his lifeblood.
Then, a flash of golden light, and the dense tadpole-like characters began to spin, arranging themselves in an orderly pattern, imprinting themselves on Lin Fan’s back.
“Ding, right hand transformed, Arm of Eternity.”
“Ding, integrated with the Celestial Scripture.”
“Ding, integrated with the Blood of Heaven.”
…
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Fan’s closed eyes suddenly opened, a burst of golden light erupting, causing the Celestial Furnace to tremble slightly.
“I’m not dead?”
Lin Fan looked around in confusion, then stepped out of the Celestial Furnace. When he saw the familiar surroundings, his heart surged with emotion.
“I’m not dead!” Lin Fan shouted excitedly, his right hand clenching in exhilaration.
“Boom…”
In an instant, the void shattered, and torrents of void energy surged forth.
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned.
“What the hell is going on?” Lin Fan thought the dark arm hadn’t been destroyed and remained vigilant.
But the surroundings were eerily quiet, not a single movement. Lin Fan looked at his right hand—it looked the same as before, but it felt different.
Lin Fan raised his hand slightly, pointing gently at the void.
In that moment, something terrifying happened.
The void where he pointed began to crumble, turning into nothingness.
“Holy…” Lin Fan could only use this word, filled with countless implications, to express his feelings.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly thought of the chick and looked around. Not far away, he saw a flame burning.
“Chick…” Lin Fan looked at the red eggshell within the flames, his heart filled with sorrow.
“Chick, don’t die…” Lin Fan wiped the corner of his eye with his right hand.
“Boom…”
The void shattered once more, and a torrent of energy swirled within the broken void.
Lin Fan was dumbfounded. This was ridiculous—just a slight raise of his hand, and the void shattered. This… this…
But now, Lin Fan didn’t dwell on it. He gently touched the eggshell within the flames with his left hand.
“Chick, you died so tragically…” Lin Fan wept, tears streaming down his face. “But don’t worry, your glorious image will forever be etched in my heart.”
As Lin Fan wept, a sound suddenly came from within the red eggshell.
“Cluck, cluck, cluck…” The sound was unhappy, helpless, and sorrowful.
“Chick, you’re not dead…” Lin Fan’s heart leapt with joy.
“Cluck, cluck, cluck…” The sound came again, as if saying, “Get me out of here. I’m alive, but my life force is too weak, and I have developmental defects. I can’t break the shell.”
…
After every Nirvana, its feathers grow fuller, its voice clearer, and its spirit deeper. When it soars into the sky once more, its radiant light will illuminate the entire world.
The phoenix achieves Nirvana, reborn from the flames.
The chick’s bloodied and mangled body lay quietly there, a vivid pool of blood like burning flames.
At this moment, the blood that stained the earth seemed to come alive, like flame spirits swirling around the chick’s body, as if worshipping an ancient deity.
The sound of flowing water.
In an instant, the blood ignited. A blazing flame full of life energy engulfed the chick’s body.
The fire burned continuously, as if consuming time, space, and even reality itself.
The flames gradually changed, and the chick’s body was slowly encased in a hard, red shell resembling stone. Yet no wood burned within this shell; the fierce flames instead seemed on the verge of being extinguished.
The phoenix’s Nirvana is full of powerful life, but the chick’s rebirth was unstable, its life force flickering as if it might vanish at any moment.
Inside the Celestial Crucible.
That pitch-black arm had now become illusory, a swirl of black mist struggling in its final moments under the refining force.
At this moment, Lin Fan’s body had long since disintegrated, leaving only a crimson heart pulsing steadily within the crucible. Unexpectedly, at the moment the Saint Demon Sect was destroyed, his Ancestor had injected a drop of divine blood into his body.
Now it floated quietly above his heart, enveloping Lin Fan’s last spark of life in an ancient power.
That drop of divine blood radiated brilliant light, yet even it was gradually crumbling under the refining force.
Beside the heart, a faint figure stood silently—it was the last remnant of Lin Fan’s essence, energy, and spirit.
“Chick…”
At that moment, a subtle sensation reached Lin Fan’s heart. It was the chick’s life force.
The phoenix achieves Nirvana, reborn from the flames.
Yet the chick’s life force was now extremely weak, barely enough to support rebirth. The burning flame flickered precariously, barely maintaining its existence.
At this moment, the crimson heart gave a faint beat—it was the flame of the “One Thought, One Pill” technique.
“Chick, hold on until the new master arrives,” Lin Fan whispered. The One Thought, One Pill flame silently rose, ignoring the barriers of the Celestial Crucible, piercing through layers of resistance, and replacing the unstable flame, granting the chick permanent life support.
…
The black arm was on the verge of final collapse. Lin Fan knew that to destroy it, he would have to be refined along with it.
Lin Fan recalled all that had happened, his thoughts swirling. He had once dreamed of becoming an unrivaled figure in the universe, but it had proven far too difficult.
“Refine…”
In an instant, the Celestial Crucible became chaotic—no light, no flame, no object remained. It was as if everything had returned to primordial chaos.
“Ding, Congratulations!《Indestructible Demon Body》gained one billion experience.”
“Ding, Congratulations!《Indestructible Demon Body》upgraded to level 18.”
“Ding, Congratulations!《Indestructible Demon Body》upgraded to level 19.”
“Ding, Congratulations!《Indestructible Demon Body》upgraded to level 20.”
“Ding, Congratulations!《Indestructible Demon Body》advanced to《Eternally Indestructible》.”
“《Eternally Indestructible》: The ultimate physical cultivation technique. Manifests true form, defies all laws.”
“Ding, Congratulations! Physical body advanced to Great Heaven Stage, initial realm.”
…
There is a legend.

At this moment, the blood that stained the earth seemed to come alive, like fire spirits, encircling the chick’s body as if paying homage to an ancient deity.
The sound of flowing water.
The blood ignited instantly, a flame full of vitality enveloping the chick’s body.
The fire burned incessantly, as if time and space themselves were consumed by the flames.
The fire gradually transformed, and the chick’s body was encased in a red, stone-like shell. The shell did not burn, but the flames seemed on the verge of being extinguished.
The phoenix’s nirvana is a testament to its immense vitality, but the chick’s life force during its nirvana was unstable, as if it could end at any moment.
Inside the Celestial Furnace.
The dark arm had now become ethereal, a mass of black mist struggling desperately against the refining force.
By now, Lin Fan’s body had completely dissipated, leaving only a crimson heart pulsating within the furnace. To Lin Fan’s surprise, at the moment the Holy Demon Sect was annihilated, the patriarch had infused a drop of divine blood into his body.
Now, it floated quietly above the heart, an ancient power enveloping Lin Fan’s last vestiges of life.
The drop of divine blood emitted a dazzling light, but it too was gradually crumbling under the refining force.
Beside the heart, a faint figure stood silently, the last remnant of Lin Fan’s essence.

The phoenix rises from the ashes, reborn in fire.
But the chick’s life force was now so weak that it could barely sustain its rebirth. The flickering flames were on the verge of collapse, barely maintaining their existence.
At this moment, the crimson heart beat faintly—it was the flame of alchemy born from a single thought.
“Chick, hold on until the new master arrives,” Lin Fan murmured. The flame of alchemy quietly rose, bypassing the barriers of the Celestial Furnace, penetrating the layers of defenses, and replacing the faltering flames, granting the chick eternal life.
…
The dark arm was on the brink of collapse, and Lin Fan knew that to destroy it, he would have to refine it along with himself.
Lin Fan recalled the past, his thoughts a whirlwind. He had once dreamed of becoming a peerless figure, but it was all too difficult.
“Refine…”
In an instant, the Celestial Furnace was plunged into chaos. There was no light, no fire, nothing—it was as if everything had returned to the primordial chaos.
“Ding, congratulations! The experience of ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ has increased by one billion.”
“Ding, congratulations! ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ has leveled up to 18.”
“Ding, congratulations! ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ has leveled up to 19.”

“‘Eternal Indestructibility’: The ultimate body-refining technique, transforming the true self, unrivaled and unbound.”
“Ding, congratulations! The physical body has reached the initial stage of the Great Heaven Realm.”
…
In this chaos, a drop of crimson blood slowly flowed into the void, and the black mist was also drawn into the chaos by the refining force. Golden tadpole-like characters floated within, as if drawn by a mysterious attraction, dancing with joy.
At this moment, the Celestial Furnace brightened once more, and a single strand of hair floated quietly within it.
The strand of hair emitted an unusual light, and in an instant, a warm current began to seep from it. The current seemed alive, growing larger and slowly taking shape.
From a single strand, all things are born.
A head, a body, two arms, two legs, and a heart.
“Thump!”
The heart beat.
The figure seated cross-legged within the Celestial Furnace was none other than Lin Fan.
Now, Lin Fan sat naked, his skin glowing like white jade, with streams of light flowing across it, captivating to behold.

The drop of divine blood transformed into a vast sea of blood, merging into Lin Fan’s body, becoming his lifeblood.
Then, a flash of golden light appeared, and the dense tadpole-like characters began to rotate, arranging themselves in an orderly pattern before imprinting themselves on Lin Fan’s back.
“Ding, right hand transformed into the Arm of Eternity.”
“Ding, integrated with the Celestial Scripture.”
“Ding, integrated with the Blood of Heaven.”
…
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Fan’s closed eyes suddenly opened, and a burst of golden light erupted, causing the Celestial Furnace to tremble slightly.
“I’m not dead?”
Lin Fan looked around in confusion, then stepped out of the Celestial Furnace. When he saw the familiar surroundings, his heart surged with emotion.
“I’m not dead!” Lin Fan shouted excitedly, clenching his right hand in exhilaration.
“Boom…”
In an instant, the void shattered, and torrents of void energy surged forth.
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned.
“What the hell is going on?” Lin Fan thought the dark arm was still alive and remained vigilant.
But the surroundings were eerily quiet, with no movement at all. Lin Fan then looked at his right hand. Though it looked the same as before, it felt somehow different.
Lin Fan raised his hand slightly and pointed gently at the void.
In that instant, something terrifying happened.
The void where he pointed shattered into nothingness.
“Holy shit…” At this moment, Lin Fan could only use these two words, filled with countless implications, to express his inner thoughts.
Then, Lin Fan suddenly remembered the chick and looked around. He saw a flame burning not far away.
“Chick…” Lin Fan looked at the red eggshell within the flames, his heart filled with sorrow.
“Chick, don’t die…” Lin Fan raised his right hand to wipe the corner of his eye.
“Boom…”
The void shattered once more, and a torrent of energy swirled within the broken void.
Lin Fan was dumbfounded. This was just too much. A gentle wave of his hand, and the void shattered? This… this…
But now, Lin Fan didn’t dwell on it. He gently touched the eggshell within the flames with his left hand.
“Chick, you died so tragically…” Lin Fan wept like a river, “But don’t worry, your glorious image will forever be etched in my heart.”
As Lin Fan wept, a sound suddenly came from within the red eggshell.
“Cluck, cluck, cluck…” The sound was unhappy, helpless, and sorrowful.
“Chick, you’re not dead…” Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy.
“Cluck, cluck, cluck…” The sound came again from within the eggshell, as if saying, “Get me out of here. I’m alive, but my life force is too weak, and I have a developmental defect. I can’t break out of the egg.”
…
At this moment, the Celestial Crucible brightened once more. A single strand of hair floated silently within.
This strand of hair radiated an unusual glow. In an instant, warmth flowed from it, as if alive, growing more and more, slowly taking shape.
One hair births all things.
A head, a torso, two arms, two legs, a heart.
“Thump!”
The heart beat.
The figure sitting cross-legged within the Celestial Crucible was unmistakably Lin Fan.
Now naked and cross-legged, his skin gleamed like jade, his body glowing with flowing light, mesmerizing to behold.
At this moment, a swirl of black mist, as if reborn, slowly formed into an arm. This arm was no longer black, but reddish, gradually merging into Lin Fan’s right hand.
That single drop of divine blood transformed into a vast sea of blood, merging into Lin Fan’s body, becoming his lifeblood.
There is a legend.
A bird soars beyond the nine heavens, perching only on the phoenix tree and eating only bamboo seeds. It lands once every five hundred years, and the day it lands is the day of its rebirth.
Each rebirth is a trial by fire and a test of life and death.
After each rebirth, its feathers grow more splendid, its song clearer, and its spirit more profound. When it takes flight again, its radiant light will illuminate the entire world.
The phoenix is reborn from the ashes.
The mangled body of the chick lay there quietly, a pool of bright red blood like burning flames.
At this moment, the blood that stained the earth seemed to come alive, like fire spirits, encircling the chick’s body as if worshiping an ancient deity.
The sound of flowing water.
The blood ignited instantly, a flame full of vitality enveloping the chick’s body.
The burning continued, as if time and space itself were being consumed by the flames.
The flames gradually transformed, and the chick’s body was encased in a red, stone-like shell. The shell did not burn, but the flames seemed on the verge of being extinguished.
The phoenix’s rebirth is marked by immense vitality, but the chick’s life force during its rebirth was unstable, as if it could end at any moment.
Inside the Celestial Furnace.
The dark arm had now become ethereal, a mass of black mist struggling against the refining force.
Lin Fan’s body had long since dissipated, leaving only a crimson heart beating within the furnace. Unexpectedly, at the moment the Holy Demon Sect was destroyed, the patriarch had infused a drop of divine blood into him.
Now, it quietly floated above the heart, an ancient force enveloping Lin Fan’s last vestiges of life.
The divine blood emitted a dazzling light, but it too was gradually crumbling under the refining force.

In the chaos, a drop of crimson blood slowly flowed into the void, and the black mist was also drawn into the refining force, merging with the chaos. Golden tadpole-like characters floated within, as if drawn by a mysterious force, dancing with joy.

After an unknown period, Lin Fan’s closed eyes suddenly opened, a burst of golden light erupting, causing the Celestial Furnace to tremble slightly.
“I’m not dead?”
At this moment, Lin Fan looked around in confusion, then emerged from the Celestial Furnace. When he saw the familiar surroundings, his heart surged with emotion.
“I’m not dead,” Lin Fan shouted excitedly, clenching his right hand in exhilaration.
“Bang, bang…”
In an instant, the void shattered, and torrents of void energy surged forth.
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned.
“What the hell is this?” Lin Fan thought the dark arm was still alive and remained vigilant.
But the surroundings were silent, with no movement. Lin Fan looked at his right hand—it looked the same as before, but it felt different.
Lin Fan raised his hand slightly and pointed gently at the void.
In that instant, something terrifying happened.
The void where he pointed shattered into nothingness.
“Holy crap…” At this moment, Lin Fan could only use these two words, filled with countless implications, to express his feelings.
Then, Lin Fan suddenly thought of the chick and looked around. He saw a flame burning not far away.
“Chick…” Lin Fan looked at the red eggshell within the flames, filled with sorrow.
“Chick, don’t die…” Lin Fan raised his right hand to wipe his eyes.

“Cluck, cluck, cluck…” The sound came again from within the eggshell, as if saying, “Get me out, I’m alive, but my life force is too weak, and I have developmental defects. I can’t break out of the egg.”
…
“Ding, Right Arm transformed—Eternal Arm.”
“Ding, Integrated《Heavenly Truth Scripture》.”
“Ding, Integrated Blood of the Heavens.”
…
Unknown how much time passed, but suddenly, the pair of closed eyes snapped open, releasing a golden light that caused the Celestial Crucible to tremble slightly.
“I’m not dead?”
At this moment, Lin Fan looked around in confusion, then stepped out of the Celestial Crucible. Seeing the familiar surroundings, his heart surged with emotion.
“I’m still alive!” Lin Fan shouted joyfully, clenching his right fist tightly.
“Boom… boom…”
There is a legend.
A bird soars beyond the nine heavens, perching only on the phoenix tree and eating only bamboo seeds. It lands once every five hundred years, and the day it lands is the day of its nirvana.
Each nirvana is a trial by fire and death.
After each nirvana, its feathers grow more splendid, its song more pure, and its spirit more profound. When it takes flight again, its radiant light will illuminate the entire world.
The phoenix rises from its ashes, reborn from the flames.
The mangled body of the chick lay still, a pool of bright red blood like burning flames.
At that moment, the blood that stained the earth seemed to come alive, swirling around the chick’s body like fire spirits, as if paying homage to an ancient deity.
The sound of flowing water.
The blood ignited instantly, a flame full of vitality enveloping the chick’s body.
The fire burned incessantly, as if consuming time and space itself.
The flame gradually transformed, the chick’s body encased in a red, stone-like shell. The shell did not burn, but the flames seemed on the verge of being extinguished.
The phoenix’s nirvana is a testament to its immense vitality, but the chick’s life force was unstable, as if it could end at any moment.

“Chick, you died so tragically…” Lin Fan wept, tears streaming down his face. “But don’t worry, your glorious image will forever be etched in my heart.”
As Lin Fan wept, a sound suddenly came from within the red eggshell.
“Cock-a-doodle-doo…” The sound was unhappy, helpless, and sorrowful.
“Chick, you’re not dead…” Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy.
“Cock-a-doodle-doo…” The sound came again from within the eggshell, as if saying, “Get me out of here. I’m alive, but my life force is too weak. I have a developmental defect and can’t break out of the egg.”
…
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned.
“What the hell is going on?” Thinking the black arm had not yet perished, Lin Fan became alert, scanning his surroundings.
But everything was silent, not a sound to be heard. Lin Fan then looked at his right hand. Though it looked the same as before, something about it felt different.
There is a legend.
A bird soars beyond the nine heavens, perching only on the phoenix tree and eating only bamboo seeds. It lands once every five hundred years, and the day it lands is the day of its nirvana.
Each nirvana is a trial by fire and a test of life and death.
After each nirvana, its feathers grow more resplendent, its song more melodious, and its spirit more profound. When it takes flight again, its radiant light will illuminate the entire world.
The phoenix rises from its ashes, reborn in fire.
The mangled body of the chick lay there quietly, a pool of bright red blood like a flame in the midst of burning.
At this moment, the blood that stained the earth seemed to come alive, like a fire spirit, encircling the chick’s body as if paying homage to an ancient deity.
The sound of flowing water.
The blood ignited instantly, a flame full of vitality enveloping the chick’s body.
It burned continuously, as if time and space itself were consumed by this flame.
The flame gradually transformed, and the chick’s body was encased in a red, stone-like shell. The shell did not burn, but the fierce fire seemed on the verge of being extinguished.
The phoenix’s nirvana is a testament to its immense vitality, but the chick’s life force during its nirvana was unstable, as if it could end at any moment.
Inside the Celestial Furnace.
The once dark arm had now become ethereal, a mass of black mist struggling desperately against the refining force.
Lin Fan’s body had long since dissipated, leaving only a crimson heart pulsating within the furnace. To his surprise, at the moment the Holy Demon Sect was annihilated, the patriarch had infused a drop of divine blood into him.
Now, it quietly floated above the heart, an ancient force enveloping Lin Fan’s last vestiges of life.
The divine blood emitted a dazzling light, but under the refining force, it too began to crumble.
Beside the heart, a faint figure stood silently, the last remnant of Lin Fan’s essence.
“Chick…”
At this moment, a subtle sensation reached Lin Fan’s heart—it was the chick’s life force.
The phoenix rises from its ashes, reborn in fire.
But the chick’s life force was now so weak that it could barely sustain its rebirth. The flickering flame teetered on the edge, barely maintaining its existence.
The crimson heart beat faintly, a flame born of a single thought.
“Chick, hold on until the new master arrives,” Lin Fan whispered. The flame born of a single thought quietly rose, ignoring the barriers of the Celestial Furnace, piercing through layer after layer, and then replacing the faltering flame, granting the chick eternal life.
…
The dark arm was on the verge of collapse, and Lin Fan knew that to destroy it, he would have to refine it along with himself.
Lin Fan recalled the past, his thoughts a whirlwind. He had once dreamed of becoming a peerless figure, but it was all too difficult.
“Refine…”
In an instant, the Celestial Furnace was plunged into chaos. There was no light, no flame, nothing—as if everything had returned to the primordial chaos.
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by one billion.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 18.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 19.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 20.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ advanced to ‘Eternal Indestructibility.'”
“‘Eternal Indestructibility’: The ultimate body-refining technique, transforming the true form, unrivaled and unbound.”
“Ding, congratulations, physical level upgraded to the initial stage of the Great Heaven Realm.”
…
In the midst of this chaos, a drop of crimson blood slowly flowed into the void, and the black mist was also drawn into the chaos by the refining force. Golden tadpole-like characters floated within, as if drawn by a mysterious attraction, dancing with joy.
At this moment, the Celestial Furnace brightened once more, and a single strand of hair floated quietly within.
The strand of hair emitted an unusual light, and in an instant, a warm current began to seep from it. The current seemed alive, growing larger and slowly taking shape.
From a single strand, all things grow.
A head, a body, two arms, two legs, and a heart.
“Thump!”
The heart beat.
The figure sitting cross-legged within the Celestial Furnace was none other than Lin Fan.
Now, Lin Fan sat naked, his skin glowing like white jade, with streams of light flowing across it, captivating to behold.
At this moment, a mass of black mist, as if reborn, slowly condensed into an arm. The arm was no longer black but tinged with red, gradually merging into Lin Fan’s right hand.
The drop of divine blood transformed into a vast sea of blood, merging into Lin Fan’s body, becoming his lifeblood.
Then, a flash of golden light, and the densely packed tadpole-like characters began to spin, arranging themselves in an orderly fashion, imprinting themselves on Lin Fan’s back.
“Ding, right arm transformed, Arm of Eternity.”
“Ding, integrated with the Celestial Scripture.”
“Ding, integrated with the Blood of Heaven.”
…
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Fan’s closed eyes suddenly opened, and a burst of golden light erupted, causing the Celestial Furnace to tremble slightly.
“I’m not dead?”
Lin Fan looked around in confusion, then stepped out of the Celestial Furnace. When he saw the familiar surroundings, his heart surged with emotion.
“I’m not dead!” Lin Fan shouted excitedly, clenching his right fist in exhilaration.
“Boom…”
In an instant, the void shattered, and a torrent of void energy surged forth.
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned.
“What the hell is going on?” Lin Fan thought the dark arm hadn’t been destroyed yet and remained vigilant.
But the surroundings were eerily quiet, with no movement at all. Lin Fan looked at his right hand—it looked the same as before, but it felt different somehow.
Lin Fan raised his hand slightly and gently pointed at the void.
In that instant, something terrifying happened.
The void where he pointed began to crumble, turning into nothingness.
“Holy shit…” At this moment, Lin Fan could only use these two words, filled with countless implications, to express his inner thoughts.
Then, Lin Fan suddenly thought of the chick and looked around. In the distance, he saw a flame burning.
“Chick…” Lin Fan looked at the red eggshell within the flame, his heart filled with sorrow.
“Chick, don’t die…” Lin Fan raised his right hand to wipe the corner of his eye.
“Boom…”
The void shattered once more, and a torrent of energy swirled within the broken void.
Lin Fan was dumbfounded. This was just too much—a mere flick of his hand, and the void shattered. This… this…
But now, Lin Fan didn’t dwell on it. He gently stroked the eggshell within the flame with his left hand.
“Chick, you died so tragically…” Lin Fan wept like a river, “But don’t worry, your glorious image will forever be etched in my heart.”
As Lin Fan wept, a sound suddenly came from within the red eggshell.
“Cluck cluck cluck…” The sound was unhappy, helpless, and sorrowful.
“Chick, you’re not dead…” Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy.
“Cluck cluck cluck…” The sound came again from within the eggshell, as if saying, “Save me, I’m alive, but my life force is too weak, and I have a developmental defect. I can’t break out of the egg.”
…
In an instant, a terrifying sight unfolded.
There is a legend.
A bird soars beyond the nine heavens, perching only on the phoenix tree and eating only bamboo seeds. It lands once every five hundred years, and the day it lands is the day of its nirvana.
Each nirvana is a trial by fire and death.
After each nirvana, its feathers grow more splendid, its song more pure, and its spirit more profound. When it takes flight again, its radiant light will illuminate the entire world.
The phoenix rises from the ashes, reborn in fire.
The mangled body of the chick lay there quietly, a pool of bright red blood like a burning flame.
At this moment, the blood that stained the earth seemed to come alive, like a flame spirit, encircling the chick’s body as if paying homage to an ancient deity.
The sound of flowing water.
The blood ignited instantly, a flame full of vitality enveloping the chick’s body.
The fire burned incessantly, as if time and space itself were being consumed by the flames.
The fire gradually transformed, the chick’s body encased in a red, stone-like shell. The shell did not burn, but the flames seemed on the verge of being extinguished.
The phoenix’s nirvana is a testament to its immense vitality, but the chick’s life force during its nirvana was unstable, as if it could end at any moment.
Inside the Celestial Forge.
The dark arm had now become ethereal, a mass of black mist struggling against the refining force.
Lin Fan’s body had long since dissipated, leaving only a crimson heart beating within the forge. Unexpectedly, at the moment the Holy Demon Sect was destroyed, the ancestor had infused a drop of divine blood into him.
Now, it floated quietly above the heart, an ancient power enveloping Lin Fan’s last vestiges of life.
The divine blood emitted a dazzling light, but it too began to crumble under the refining force.
Beside the heart, a faint figure stood silently, the last remnant of Lin Fan’s essence.
“Chick…”
At this moment, a subtle sensation entered Lin Fan’s heart—it was the chick’s life force.
The phoenix rises from the ashes, reborn in fire.
But the chick’s life force was now so weak that it could barely sustain itself, the flickering flames on the verge of collapse.
At this moment, the crimson heart beat faintly, a flame born of a single thought.
“Chick, hold on until the new master arrives,” Lin Fan murmured. The flame born of a single thought quietly rose, bypassing the barriers of the Celestial Forge, piercing through layer after layer, and replacing the faltering flame, granting the chick eternal life.
…
The dark arm was on the verge of collapse, and Lin Fan knew that to destroy it, he would have to refine it along with himself.
Lin Fan recalled the past, his thoughts a whirlwind. He had once dreamed of becoming a peerless figure, but it was all too difficult.
“Refine…”
In an instant, the Celestial Forge was plunged into chaos, devoid of light, fire, or anything else, as if everything had returned to the primordial chaos.
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by one billion.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 18.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 19.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 20.”
“Ding, congratulations, ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ advanced to ‘Eternal Indestructibility.'”
“‘Eternal Indestructibility’: The ultimate body-refining technique, transforming the true self, unrivaled and unbound.”
“Ding, congratulations, physical body level upgraded to the initial stage of the Great Heaven Realm.”
…
In the chaos, a drop of crimson blood slowly flowed into the void, and the black mist was also drawn into the chaos by the refining force. Golden tadpole-like characters floated within, as if drawn by a mysterious attraction, dancing with joy.
At this moment, the Celestial Forge brightened once more, a single strand of hair floating quietly within.
The strand of hair emitted an unusual light, and in an instant, a warm current began to flow from it, as if alive, growing larger and taking shape.
From one strand, all things are born.
A head, a body, two arms, two legs, and a heart.
“Thump!”
The heart beat.
The figure sitting cross-legged within the Celestial Forge was none other than Lin Fan.
Now, Lin Fan sat naked, his skin glowing like white jade, with flowing light dancing across his body, captivating all who saw it.
At this moment, a mass of black mist, as if reborn, slowly condensed into an arm, no longer black but tinged with red, gradually merging into Lin Fan’s right hand.
The drop of divine blood transformed into a vast sea of blood, merging into Lin Fan’s body, becoming his lifeblood.
Then, a golden light flashed, and the dense tadpole-like characters spun rapidly, arranging themselves in an orderly fashion, imprinting themselves on Lin Fan’s back.
“Ding, right hand transformed, Arm of Eternity.”
“Ding, integrated with the Celestial Scripture.”
“Ding, integrated with the Blood of Heaven.”
…
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Fan’s closed eyes suddenly opened, a golden light bursting forth, causing the Celestial Forge to tremble slightly.
“I’m not dead?”
At this moment, Lin Fan looked around in confusion, then stepped out of the Celestial Forge. When he saw the familiar surroundings, his heart surged with emotion.
“I’m not dead!” Lin Fan shouted excitedly, clenching his right hand in exhilaration.
“Boom…”
In an instant, the void shattered, and a torrent of void energy surged forth.
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned.
“What the hell is going on?” Lin Fan thought the dark arm was still alive and remained vigilant.
But the surroundings were eerily quiet, not a single movement. Lin Fan looked at his right hand, which, though seemingly the same as before, felt somehow different.
Lin Fan raised his hand slightly and pointed gently at the void.
In that instant, something terrifying happened.
The void where he pointed shattered inch by inch, turning into nothingness.
“Holy crap…” At this moment, Lin Fan could only use these two words, filled with countless implications, to express his inner thoughts.
Then, Lin Fan suddenly thought of the chick and looked around. In the distance, he saw a flame burning.
“Chick…” Lin Fan looked at the red eggshell within the flame, his heart filled with sorrow.
“Chick, don’t die…” Lin Fan raised his right hand to wipe the corner of his eye.
“Boom…”
The void shattered once more, and a torrent of energy swirled within the broken void.
Lin Fan was dumbfounded. This was ridiculous. Just a slight raise of his hand, and the void shattered. This… this…

“Chick, you died so tragically…” Lin Fan wept like a torrent, “But don’t worry, your glorious image will forever be etched in my heart.”
As Lin Fan wept, a sound suddenly came from within the red eggshell.
“Cluck, cluck, cluck…” The sound was unhappy, helpless, and sorrowful.
“Chick, you’re not dead…” At this moment, Lin Fan’s heart was filled with joy.
“Cluck, cluck, cluck…” The sound came again from within the eggshell, as if saying, “Save me, I’m alive, but my life force is too weak, and I have a developmental defect. I can’t break out of the egg.”
…
“What the hell…” At this moment, Lin Fan could only express his shock with these two words filled with infinite meaning.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly thought of the chick and looked around. Not far away, he saw a flame still burning.
“Chick…” Looking at the red eggshell within the flames, Lin Fan felt a surge of sorrow.
“Chick, please don’t die…” Lin Fan raised his right hand to wipe his eyes.
“Peng…”
There is a legend.
A bird soars beyond the nine heavens, perching only on the phoenix tree and eating only bamboo seeds. It lands once every five hundred years, and the day it lands is the day of its nirvana.
Each nirvana is a trial by fire and a test of life and death.
After each nirvana, its feathers grow more splendid, its song clearer, and its spirit more profound. When it takes flight again, its radiant light will illuminate the entire world.
The phoenix rises from the ashes, reborn from the flames.
The mangled body of the chick lay still, a pool of crimson blood like burning flames.
At that moment, the blood staining the earth seemed to come alive, swirling around the chick’s body like fire spirits, as if paying homage to an ancient deity.
The sound of flowing water.
The blood ignited instantly, a flame full of vitality enveloping the chick’s body.
The fire burned incessantly, as if time and space itself were consumed by the flames.
The fire gradually transformed, and the chick’s body became encased in a red, stone-like shell. The shell did not burn, but the flames seemed on the verge of being extinguished.
The phoenix’s nirvana is a testament to its immense vitality, but the chick’s life force during its nirvana was unstable, as if it could end at any moment.
Inside the Celestial Crucible.
The dark arm had now become ethereal, a wisp of black mist struggling against the refining force.
Lin Fan’s body had long since dissipated, leaving only a crimson heart beating within the crucible. To his surprise, at the moment the Holy Demon Sect was destroyed, the patriarch had infused a drop of divine blood into him.
Now, it floated silently above the heart, an ancient power enveloping Lin Fan’s last vestiges of life.

Lin Fan looked around in confusion, then stepped out of the Celestial Crucible. When he saw the familiar surroundings, his heart swelled with emotion.
“I’m not dead!” Lin Fan shouted excitedly, clenching his right hand in exhilaration.

Lin Fan raised his hand slightly and pointed gently at the void.

…
There is a legend.
A bird soars beyond the nine heavens, perching only on the phoenix tree and feeding solely on bamboo seeds. It lands once every five hundred years, and the day it lands is the day of its rebirth.
Each rebirth is a trial by fire and a test of life and death.
After each rebirth, its feathers grow more resplendent, its song more melodious, and its spirit more profound. When it takes flight again, its radiant light will illuminate the entire world.
The phoenix is reborn from the ashes.
The mangled body of the chick lies still, a pool of crimson blood like a flame in the midst of burning.
At this moment, the blood that stains the earth seems to come alive, like fire spirits encircling the chick’s body, as if paying homage to an ancient deity.
The sound of flowing water.
The blood ignites instantly, a flame full of vitality enveloping the chick’s body.
The fire burns incessantly, as if time and space are consumed by its flames.
The flame gradually changes, the chick’s body encased in a red, stone-like shell. The shell does not burn, yet the fire seems on the verge of extinguishing.
The phoenix’s rebirth is marked by immense vitality, but the chick’s life force is unstable, as if it could end at any moment.
Inside the Heavenly Crucible.
The dark arm has now become ethereal, a mass of black mist making its final struggle against the refining force.
Lin Fan’s body has long since dissipated, leaving only a crimson heart pulsating within the crucible. Unexpectedly, at the moment the Holy Demon Sect was annihilated, the patriarch infused a drop of divine blood into his body.
Now, it quietly floats above the heart, an ancient force enveloping Lin Fan’s last vestiges of life.
The divine blood emits a dazzling light, but under the refining force, it too begins to crumble.
Beside the heart, a spectral figure stands silently, the last remnant of Lin Fan’s essence.
“Chick…”
A subtle sensation enters Lin Fan’s heart—it is the chick’s life force.
The phoenix is reborn from the ashes.
But the chick’s life force is now so weak that it cannot sustain its rebirth. The flickering flame barely maintains its existence.
At this moment, the crimson heart beats faintly—a flame born of a single thought.
“Chick, hold on until the new master arrives,” Lin Fan whispers. The flame born of a single thought rises quietly, bypassing the Heavenly Crucible’s barriers, penetrating layer after layer, and replacing the faltering flame, granting the chick eternal life.
…
The dark arm is on the verge of collapse, and Lin Fan knows that to destroy it, he must refine it along with himself.
Lin Fan recalls the past, his thoughts a whirlwind. He once aspired to be a peerless figure, but it was all too difficult.
“Refine…”
In an instant, the Heavenly Crucible is plunged into chaos—no light, no fire, nothing, as if everything has returned to the primordial void.
“Ding, congratulations! ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ experience increased by one billion.”
“Ding, congratulations! ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 18.”
“Ding, congratulations! ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 19.”
“Ding, congratulations! ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ leveled up to 20.”
“Ding, congratulations! ‘Indestructible Demon Body’ advanced to ‘Eternal Indestructibility.'”
“‘Eternal Indestructibility’: The ultimate body-refining technique, transforming the true form, unrivaled and unbound.”
“Ding, congratulations! Physical level has reached the initial stage of the Great Heaven Realm.”
…
In this chaos, a drop of crimson blood slowly flows into the void, and the black mist is also drawn into the refining force, merging with the chaos. Golden tadpole-like characters float within, as if drawn by a mysterious force, dancing with joy.
At this moment, the Heavenly Crucible becomes clear once more. A single strand of hair drifts quietly within.
The strand emits an unusual light, and in an instant, a warm current flows from it, growing larger and taking shape.
From a single strand, all things are born.
A head, a body, two arms, two legs, and a heart.
“Thump!”
The heart beats.
The figure seated cross-legged within the Heavenly Crucible is none other than Lin Fan.
Now, Lin Fan sits naked, his skin glowing like white jade, with flowing light dancing across his body, captivating all who see it.
At this moment, a mass of black mist, as if reborn, slowly forms into an arm. The arm is no longer black but tinged with red, gradually merging into Lin Fan’s right hand.
The drop of divine blood transforms into a vast sea of blood, merging with Lin Fan’s body, becoming his lifeblood.
Then, a flash of golden light, and the dense tadpole-like characters spin and arrange themselves in an orderly pattern, imprinting themselves on Lin Fan’s back.
“Ding, right hand transformed into the Arm of Eternity.”
“Ding, integrated with the Heavenly Scripture.”
“Ding, infused with the Blood of Heaven.”
…
After an unknown period, Lin Fan’s closed eyes suddenly open, a burst of golden light erupting, causing the Heavenly Crucible to tremble slightly.
“I’m not dead?”
Lin Fan looks around in confusion, then steps out of the Heavenly Crucible. Seeing the familiar surroundings, his heart swells with emotion.
“I’m not dead,” Lin Fan shouts excitedly, clenching his right hand in exhilaration.
“Boom…”
In an instant, the void shatters, and a torrent of void energy surges forth.
Lin Fan is momentarily stunned.
“What the hell is going on?” Lin Fan thinks the dark arm might still be alive and remains vigilant.
But the surroundings are eerily quiet. Lin Fan looks at his right hand—it looks the same as before, yet feels different.
Lin Fan raises his hand slightly, pointing gently at the void.
In that moment, a terrifying scene unfolds.
The void where he points shatters into nothingness.
“Holy…” Lin Fan can only use this word, filled with countless implications, to express his inner turmoil.
At this moment, Lin Fan suddenly thinks of the chick and looks around. He sees a flame burning not far away.
“Chick…” Lin Fan gazes at the red eggshell within the flame, filled with sorrow.
“Chick, don’t die…” Lin Fan wipes the corner of his eye with his right hand.
“Boom…”
The void shatters again, and a torrent swirls wildly within the broken void.
Lin Fan is dumbfounded. Is this some kind of joke? A mere gesture causes the void to collapse? This… this.
But now, Lin Fan doesn’t dwell on it. He gently touches the eggshell within the flame with his left hand.
“Chick, you died so tragically…” Lin Fan weeps, tears flowing like a river. “But don’t worry, your glorious image will forever be etched in my heart.”
As Lin Fan weeps, a sound suddenly comes from within the red eggshell.
“Cluck, cluck, cluck…” The sound is unhappy, helpless, and sorrowful.
“Chick, you’re not dead…” Lin Fan’s heart leaps with joy.
“Cluck, cluck, cluck…” The sound comes again, as if saying, “Get me out of here. I’m alive, but my life force is too weak, and I have a developmental defect. I can’t break the shell.”
…
But at this moment, Lin Fan didn’t dwell on it. He gently reached out with his left hand, stroking the eggshell within the flames.
“Chick, you died so tragically…” Lin Fan wept bitterly, “But don’t worry, your glorious image will forever remain in my heart.”
As Lin Fan sobbed, suddenly a sound came from within the red eggshell.
“Wo wo wo…” This sound carried unhappiness, helplessness, and sorrow.
“Chick! You’re alive!” At this moment, Lin Fan’s heart leapt with joy.
“Wo wo wo…” The sound came again from within the eggshell, as if saying, “Quick, save me! I’m alive, but my life force is too weak. I have developmental issues and can’t break out of the shell!”
