Possessed by my father, I was reborn and became the supreme ruler.

No, I will not let you go so easily! Even if my soul is scattered, even if I cannot be reincarnated!

I will make you, Situ Jiuxiao, pay for your blood debt!

Ye Yunjian slowly raised his head, staring at Situ Jiuxiao with bloodshot eyes, and swore to the heavens, word by word:

"Situ Jiuxiao, this heartless and insane demon!"

If I have an afterlife, I will definitely tear your tendons out and skin you alive!

"I'll throw your soul into the Nine Netherworld Flame Domain, where it will suffer ten thousand years of burning, a fate worse than death!"

An endless sword intent rose up as he burned himself with the power of his newly advanced Xuanhuang realm!

The seven souls shone like the sun, and the Corpse Dog, Hidden Arrow, Sparrow Yin, Devouring Thief, Non-Poison, Purifying Filth, and Stinky Lung condensed into the shape of a sword!

The three souls, like a swirling and gathering gas, namely Tai Guang, Shuang Ling, and You Jing, infuse the Soul Sword with endless fighting spirit!

Transform your soul into a sword, and wield your spirit to control it!

Situ Jiuxiao, even if I die, I will take you down with me!

Just as the enormous sword light was about to be unleashed, Ye Yunjian's soul suddenly trembled violently!

Ye Yunjian felt his two Heavenly Souls, two Earthly Souls, and three Human Souls suddenly become unstable!

Then he felt that his two souls, one in the heaven and one in the earth, were being drawn away by an invisible force!

Then his own life force could not hold on and showed signs of dissipation!

The sword with the burning soul of the Xuan Emperor immediately developed cracks, and then began to shatter and collapse!

"My dear son, will I give you a chance?"

All those years of suppressing your soul medicine, not a single drop of it was wasted!

It's too late to fight back!

I'm telling you now, you will not have an afterlife!

Situ Jiuxiao grinned maliciously and flicked his finger. A pale purple flame rolled out and immediately enveloped Ye Yunjian's soul.

"what--!"

The moment his soul touched the flames, Ye Yunjian let out a scream of unbearable pain.

As the flames consumed him, his soul began to dissipate amidst the searing pain.

Moments later, Ye Yunjian's soul was completely annihilated in the flames.

-

Purple flames burned fiercely, radiating countless brilliant lights. Six purple flames spun like wheels, and demons with hideous faces danced around them.

Golden flames rose from the six purple flames, sweeping across the void with a roar, like a crimson-gold volcano growing.

Amidst the boundless golden flames, endless golden flames enveloped the entire earth and sky.

A divine bird's cry rang out from the raging flames, and a chant echoed throughout the four seas and eight wastelands:

"The spirit of the Xuanhuang is neither born nor dies; it transcends the six realms of reincarnation, becoming the supreme being, and is reborn in Nirvana!"

A jumble of sounds filled my ears.

"Sect Master, report! The Fire Dragon God Bell in the Spirit Fire Cave has suddenly rang out! The heavens and earth are shaking!!!"

"Sect Master, an unusual phenomenon has occurred at the Spirit Fire Cave! Earth fire is raging and the sky is burning!!!"

"Sect Master, the earth is ablaze with fire! This foretells the birth of the World-Destroying Spirit King, and an imminent catastrophe for the three realms of gods, humans, and demons!"

"Legend has it that the earth's fire burning the heavens is a sign of the legendary World-Destroying Spirit King's birth!"

"Master, my senior brother is still healing in the Spirit Fire Cave. Please go and save him quickly!"

"Senior brother, you're actually alive! Senior brother, that's wonderful!"

……

This?

This is?

This is where?

The shattered illusion turned into darkness, and consciousness slowly recovered amidst endless pain, as if it had just struggled back from a fiery hell. Gradually, feeling returned, and the mind was restored!

"Hoo! Cough cough!"

Ye Yunjian, who had just woken up in the endless darkness, suddenly tried to open his eyes.

First, there was a faint purple halo, then a purple light appeared before my eyes.

He couldn't see the world clearly and instinctively raised his hand to shield his eyes.

"I'm... not dead?"

No... My soul has already been burned by Situ Jiuxiao's Xuanhuo Flame, so it should have been completely destroyed.

Now what's going on?

Did someone save him?

Ye Yunjian looked down at himself and found something was wrong.

Although he was seriously injured and his cultivation level had regressed to the Profound Core Realm, he was not in any danger to his life.

Moreover... he also discovered that his hands, which were covered in scars from his previous life due to the intense sword intent, were now flawless, with only calluses left from years of martial arts practice.

This...what is going on?

Looking around, he realized that the room looked familiar; it was his former residence.

This is... the Spiritfire Cave!

Since breaking through to the Profound King Realm, in order to accelerate his cultivation, he moved into the Spirit Fire Cave at Situ Jiuxiao's suggestion.

It is said that the Spirit Fire Cave was the dwelling place of the Fire Dragon Clan's Dragon God ten thousand years ago, and there is a fire that rises from underground inside the cave.

The cultivation technique he practiced was recorded in the "Nine Nether Profound Fire Technique," which Situ Jiuxiao had accidentally obtained from an ancient book.

One of the secrets of this technique is that practicing near earth fire can achieve twice the results with half the effort.

The place where he was ambushed by Situ Jiuxiao was also inside the Spirit Fire Cave.

As for the room he used to live in, it has long been removed. How come he is here now?

Just then, the purple moonlight from the skylight once again entered his eyes. Following the light, he saw the purple phoenix on the wall, the suppressing talisman, and various ancient decorations. Then he looked up at the purple moon—a full moon night!

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and a crisp voice came from outside:

"Fourth Senior Brother, are you awake? I'm coming in!"

Upon hearing this voice, Ye Yunjian's pupils dilated, and he immediately spoke:

"Come in!"

"Ok!"

The owner of the voice responded and then pushed open the door and came in, carrying a bowl of medicine.

She was a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed in a peach-pink dress. Her pretty face was as beautiful as a peach blossom, and her skin was so delicate that it seemed as if a peach blossom had just bloomed in spring. She was stunningly beautiful.

But when Ye Yunjian saw this girl, his eyes nearly popped out of his head in shock, and he instinctively asked:

"Junior Sister? What are you doing here? Didn't you already..."

Bai Yueling was stunned upon hearing this. She raised her head slightly and asked in confusion:

"What do you mean, 'already'? Fourth Senior Brother, what's wrong with you today?"

I don't understand what you're saying. I've been taking care of you ever since you got injured.

But after the fire in the Spirit Fire Cave scorched the heavens, they said that the World-Destroying Spirit King was born, and you have been in a coma ever since.

There was an unusual purple moon tonight, and I noticed you seemed to have a slight feeling in your body just now.

I guessed you'd wake up soon, so I brought your medicine over.

Ye Yunjian frowned, his mind filled with confusion.

The woman before him, Bai Yueling, was his junior sister who had been tragically killed by a rogue cultivator on her way home to visit her family.

But that was ten years ago!

Upon receiving the news, Ye Yunjian was deeply saddened and, in his anger, believed that the culprit was that rogue cultivator.

So they chased the culprit for three thousand miles before finally killing the rogue cultivator!

He offered the soul of a rogue cultivator as a sacrifice to appease his junior sister's spirit in heaven, thus quelling the hatred in his heart.

But now, my junior sister is standing here unharmed. What's going on?

and many more!

Could it be that Heaven has opened its eyes and, seeing that his previous life was a tragedy, has taken pity on him and allowed him to be reborn twenty years in the past?

Yes!

Only this explanation makes sense.

A strange phenomenon of a purple moon, a spatial and temporal anomaly! His gaze fell on a line of words on the wall:

"Return, soul! Return, soul!"
