Chapter 404

The moment the bronze Marriage Contract touched the sandy shores of the Heart-Consonance Knot, the vermilion seal suddenly exhaled a mist of Black Tortoise blood. Beneath Lin Xuan’s feet, the Greedy Wolf Mark spun in reverse, forming a Guixu Whirlpool that ground the shrill shriek of the Soul-Devouring Cicada King larva into nothingness. From the remnants of the "Life-Devouring Heavenly Book," which had coalesced upon the ground from the insect’s corpse, a bloody scene manifested: the First Ancestral Witch wielding the Cicada King as a blade, carving a "Common-Fate Pact" into Su Jiuli’s palace of destiny! "Tracing truth through the Sea of Tribulation!" The roots of the peach tree suddenly animated, coiling around Lin Xuan’s right wrist and dragging him toward the heart of the island. A spectral light erupted from the larva’s dorsal armor, coalescing in the void into forty-nine Sun-Eclipsing Destiny Banners. The Witch Seal Script on their surfaces recorded nothing less than the Star Orbit diagram of the broken Tribulation hidden within the interlayer of the Marriage Contract, and its missing "Alkaid" position fit the growth rings of the peach tree perfectly!
