Chapter 214

The instant the giant bronze claw crushed the Astrolabe Dubhe, the river of time across the entire Return to Void flowed in reverse. As Su Jiuli’s fox tail brushed against the ancestral Marriage Covenant bone ring, the dragon scales on the ring’s face erupted with a nether-blood radiance from three hundred kalpas ago. The images emerging from the light were not of a wedding ceremony, but the brutal scene of the Four Symbols Holy Beasts being beheaded and sacrificed when the First Generation Patriarch gouged out the core of Dubhe! "This ring... it’s embedded with the vengeful soul of an Azure Dragon Reverse Scale!" Lin Xuan’s roar, mingled with a dragon’s cry, shattered the void. The dragon blood gushing from the wound in his chest condensed into the mantras of Xuanwu, which coiled like chains toward the giant claw. The moment the chains touched the bronze, star sand seeped from the gaps in the claws, coalescing into a vision of the Wu Clan’s blood sacrifice pit. The pile at the bottom of the pit was not human fodder, but the stripped-away Destiny Soul fire seeds of the Four Symbols Holy Beasts!
