The moment the Eternal Tribulation Coffin Gate emerged from the collapsing Star Ruins, the Vermilion Bird Heaven-Burning array eye on the surface of the Xuanwu Sea Suppressing Seal suddenly awakened. As Lin Xuan’s fingertips brushed against the Star Palace inscriptions etched into the coffin gate, the entire void shuddered as if struck by an Azure Dragon Broken Horn—the source of the tremor was the Alkaid blood marrow seeping from the wreckage of the Tribulation-Measuring Disk, creating a lethal resonance with the illusions of the Four Symbols Holy Beasts.
The Ziwei Emperor Core, formed by the Infant Girl's Remnant Soul, suddenly began to rotate in reverse.
Forty-nine Chains of Annihilation burst from the crevices of the coffin gate, and the fragments of the *Stele of Sun-Eclipsing Self-Reproach* entwined within them suddenly came to life. Lin Xuan retreated, stepping on the feathers of the world-burning Vermilion Bird, as the Star Sand absorbed by the Sea Suppressing Seal condensed into the missing "Heaven-Burning" chapter of the *Blood Pact of Sacred Beasts*. The moment the pact text took form, Xuanwu marrow-thunder oozed from the Greedy Wolf Devouring Moon pattern on the surface of the Eternal Tribulation Coffin Gate.
