Chapter 409

The moment the bronze Longevity Lock touched the water of Regret-Soul Stream, the runes of the "Guixu Life-Sharing Pact" suddenly animated into blood-red pythons. Lin Xuan shattered the Black Tortoise Blood-Weeping Stone at the bottom of the stream, and the Star Sand beneath his feet spiraled in reverse, forming a Guixu Whirlpool. From the "Life-Devouring Heavenly Book" fragment rising within the vortex, a scene manifested: the First Ancestral Witch carving the Life-Sharing Pact into Su Jiuli’s destiny palace. The substance flowing from her fingertips was not cinnabar, but Sun-Eclipsing ink refined from the "Soul Breath of Repentance" of Lin Xuan's past life! "The pact has backlashed against its master!" Nine Sun-Eclipsing Heaven-Measuring Pillars abruptly rose from the depths of Regret-Soul Stream. The Jianbing Demonic Qi entwining the pillars condensed into the White Tiger’s World-Splitting Claws. Lin Xuan swung his palm, shattering three of the stone pillars, and within the debris, a horrifying truth was revealed: what had been suppressed at the bottom of the stream was not an evil entity, but the remains of the Reincarnation Pond from the restricted area of the First Star Palace. Inside a bronze casket floating at the bottom of the pond, three thousand strands of Su Jiuli’s hair, severed when her Destiny Orbit was tampered with, were sealed away. Each strand was tied to a fragment of her unpolluted "Initial Vow" soul!
