When the Bronze Bone-Marrow-Asking Cauldron cracked with seven Star Eclipse marks, three hundred and sixty marrow-light blood crystals soared from the Guixu Ice Crevice. In the mirage refracted by the crystal clusters, the scene of the First Ancestral Witch carving out his heart suddenly twisted—the Marrow Blade of Fate-Tampering held in his palm split into nine residual images of covenants across parallel timelines, each tip adorned with Su Jiuli’s "White-Headed" soul sand, untainted by the Star Eclipse.

Su Jiuli’s phantom flicked her sleeves, stirring the Star-Ash Fireflies. The swarm coalesced into three Vow-Sand Puppets that ensnared the feet of the cauldron. Lin Xuan leaped onto the cauldron’s rim, stepping on the puppets' shoulder plates.
