The moment the Bronze Divination Bamboo Slip pierced her spine, Su Jiuli’s nine tails suddenly petrified. The decaying fingertips of the corpse pressed against her brow, and where skull met bone, three hundred Soul-Devouring Curse Chains emerged. Wrapped around the links was not Star Sand, but the Celestial Fox Ancestral Blood stripped away when the First Generation Patriarch had tampered with the Destiny Orbit. As the blood droplets touched the petrified tail tips, a cyan mist rose throughout the ruins of the Nether Palace. Within the mist, the swarms of Soul-Devouring Gu began to shed their Nether markings.
"This mist... is it purifying the Gu insects?"
The star dust formed from Lin Xuan’s residual soul suddenly coalesced into a blade. The edge split the Soul-Devouring Sundial Needle in the corpse’s chest, and the Star Sand falling from its tip congealed into a fragment of the Reincarnation River scroll. The text that emerged on the scroll was not a prophecy, but the Primordial Era prohibition used by the Celestial Fox Ancestor to seal the Soul-Devouring Mother Nest with Marrow Blood! The moment the prohibition touched the cyan mist, the remains of the Jiuli Great Wizard suddenly erupted with scales; on the surface of the newly sprouted dragon scales appeared the marriage pact totem from before Lin Xuan had shed his scales.
