Deep in the Reincarnation Emperor Palace, in the Netherworld Underworld!
Li Yi floated silently in the void, his body radiating boundless light. Like a dazzling star, he illuminated every inch of the entire secret chamber.
Golden Sacred Runes emerged from the seven apertures of Li Yi's face—his mouth, ears, and nose—and gathered tightly together, forming a strange "flame." The "flame" radiated a vast pressure, as if the space could barely withstand it. Black cracks appeared throughout the chamber from time to time.
The concepts of Life and Death, annihilation, yin and yang, space and time, cause and effect, and more spread out from the "flame," along with an invisible, immense force.
At that moment, a fragment of the Jade Butterfly of Creation floated above the "flame." Mysterious light flickered incessantly as it continuously conjured illusory thirty-six-petaled green lotuses, which trembled as they withstood the "flame's" scorching heat!
"Hmph. You've already been pushed this far. What's the point of struggling?"
Li Yi's eyes snapped wide. Two dazzling beams of golden light shot from his pupils, and a vast spiritual will abruptly merged into the "flame"!
"Roar!!!"
In an instant, the "flame" surged dozens of meters high, stretching and swelling until it gradually transformed into a ferocious golden dragon. Its sharp fangs and claws gleamed, every scale distinct. Murderous intent spilled from its eyes, while its savage aura condensed into Sword after Sword of Slaughter. They swept in every direction, each strike cleaving countless dimensional spaces apart.

"Roar!!!"
The golden dragon let out a ferocious roar. Its claws glinted with a deadly chill as layer upon layer of space
