Flower Immortal Body, Dragon Emperor Soul, Crow-Absolute Stone Accompanies the Body

A delicate flower slipped from the fingertips of the amethyst giant dragon, falling through the blood and tears all the way back into the lake.

The flower was pure white and flawless, as clean as a blank sheet of paper, much like innocent and naive love.

Yet, upon that white paper lay a streak of glaring crimson.

It was a red so tragically beautiful and mournful that it pierced the heart.

The twelfth-grade divine medicine—Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

It bloomed right there, amidst the lake filled with blood and tears.

The Dragon Emperor soul-body glanced at the lakeshore, then at the Goddess of Love, who was weeping in inconsolable agony, her spirit already consumed by the backlash of "hatred."

He did not linger for the beauty; he dove, transforming into a streak of amethyst dragon light, crashing into the lake of the Goddess of Love's tears and lunging toward the divine peony blooming at the lakebed.

"ROAR—"

A clear, resonant cry pierced the water's surface.

The entire soul-body of the amethyst giant dragon attached itself to the bud of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, and a strange reaction began to unfold.

The entire twelfth-grade divine flower seemed to be "pollinated," its blood-stained white petals falling away one by one...

The deep red radiance of a soul beast abandoning everything to reincarnate as a human expanded and rose from the lakebed.

An embryo, faintly pulsing with a heartbeat, began to grow upon the heart of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

That floral embryo looked exactly like a fruit born of destiny after the flower had bloomed and withered.

Under the influence of a million years of cultivation and the medicinal power of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, the boundary between life and death began to reverse. The embryo on the flower grew bit by bit, gradually taking on a clear human silhouette.

The amniotic membrane outside the embryo rapidly keratinized under the influence of the dragon soul, transforming into an eggshell of amethyst.

Time flowed...

Life and death were exchanged...

The Goddess of Love had long since stopped crying.

She collapsed by the lake, her tear-filled eyes returning to a deathly stillness, yet the red and white—symbols of love and hate—intertwined endlessly upon her skin.

Crack.

A crisp sound of shattering echoed softly from the lakebed.

With a splash, a figure broke the surface, bringing with it a cascade of long hair that shimmered like amethyst crystal.

A human body cut through the water, stepping forward, one pace at a time, along the lakebed.

A pair of golden pupils ignited within the vast, gray gloom.

The handsome face with its sharp, defined contours lowered, strands of lake water dripping from the tips of his hair.

His temperament was solemn and majestic from birth, rendering his features cold and aloof, yet filled with heroic spirit.

His hair reached his shoulders, possessing a crystalline texture.

The body heat, akin to that of a newborn dragon, even caused the lake water to boil, rising in a layer of misty vapor.

He raised his left hand, his golden gaze tracing the inside of his wrist all the way to the tip of his middle finger.

A mythological anecdote surfaced, word by word, from his memories:

"Recorded in the Tang Sect Mysterious Heaven Hundred Treasures Record..."

"There was a young human man, by nature indifferent to the world, who loved planting flowers and herbs. His home was always filled with a garden of green lotuses and lush reeds, a myriad of colors."

"By day, he would chant poems to the red flowers and green leaves; by night, he would raise his cup to invite the bright moon on the branches."

"Whenever he encountered fallen petals, he would weep in sorrow, carefully sweeping them up to bury them on the spot."

"It is often said that emotions can move the heavens. This human's love for flowers was so profound that it drew a flower fairy from the heavens to descend to the mortal realm and become his wife."

"Alas, good times do not last. The gods of the heavens discovered this and were greatly enraged. Citing that immortals and mortals must not be wed, they ordered the flower fairy to return to the God Realm."

"From that day on, the young man lost his beloved, sighing and grieving day and night. He abandoned his gardening; the walls collapsed, the fences fell, the flowers withered, and the garden became a scene of desolation."

"One day, a white-haired elder came to the young man's home and told him that the white peony he loved most in the garden was the incarnation of his wife's immortal body. If he burned the entire plant, the flower fairy would lose her immortal form, be cast down to the mortal realm, and be reunited with him as husband and wife."

"The young man was suddenly awakened from his grief, deeply regretting his neglect of the flowers, and began to tend to the garden with meticulous care once more."

"Though he loved his immortal wife, he could not bear to destroy the white peony. From that day on, he cherished it even more, weeping and pouring out his heart to the flower day and night, until finally, his tears ran dry, his heart shattered, and he died of lovesickness."

"As he lay dying, his heart's blood spilled onto the petals of his wife's immortal body, creating the final form of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red..."

Ten thousand years of time, borrowed through the memories of the Xu family disciples who had infiltrated the Tang Sect, allowed the Dragon Emperor to finally glimpse two secrets:

The Lovesick Heartbreak Red possesses the power to reverse life and death;

The Universe Asking-Love Valley is the place where the Goddess of Love fell.

A blood-stained white peony grew from the left wrist of the reincarnated Dragon Emperor, blooming upon his palm.

The Goddess of Love's shed tears, reflected into the mortal world.

God-level, Body Martial Soul

--Lovesick Heartbreak Red!

Unique in all the world: God-rank plant martial soul.

The Dragon Emperor's right hand also fished out from the lake water.

A stone, incomparably heavy and blacker than ink, was cradled in his right palm.

God-grade medicinal herb: Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

Its companion object—

God-grade mineral: Crow-Absolute Stone.

The hardest and heaviest, the purest in the world.

The twin dragon of the Dragon God: Amethyst Dragon Emperor.

He looked at the white peony on his left wrist and the Crow-Absolute Stone in his right hand, finally speaking the first words since his rebirth: "Is this the God-grade constitution, the Flower Immortal Physique?"

The Lovesick Heartbreak Red martial soul rapidly retracted back into his left wrist.

He gently closed his right hand, and this object, the hardest in the world, rapidly melted in his grip...

It transformed into a suit of Crow-Absolute Stone armor, temporarily covering his naked new body.

His body parted the lake surface step by step, and the Dragon Emperor gradually walked onto the shore.

He looked down at the God of Love, who had calmed down but whose body was still filled with chaotic and sharp love and hate.

Before this, how could he have failed to see through the God of Love's little tricks?

As a peak God King in his previous life, the Dragon Emperor's will was derived from the Destruction Godhead, one of the two strongest godheads in the universe.

How could he fail to see through it: within the God of Love's seemingly calm soul body, beyond the love floating on the surface.

There was also that hatred, pierced into the heart and deep into the marrow.

Since the Crow-Absolute Stone was formed from a pool of blood and tears shed by the God of Love before her fall, it contained more than just the trial of love.

Within this pool of blood and tears, the Dragon Emperor's destructive will sensed not only love, but also that deep, thick, and penetrating hatred.

It was only because the gods needed the God of Love's soul body to maintain the stability of the Universe Asking-Love Valley secret realm during their takeover that they suppressed the hatred within her, preventing her from falling into an evil god.

Therefore, relying solely on ultimate, sincere love could never grow a million-year cultivation Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

This was a lie of a trial cast by the God of Love's soul body to preserve the cornerstone of the Universe Asking-Love Valley.

The true answer to the God Trial required the hatred "born from love" to thoroughly irrigate a million-year Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

A body from the myths of the Mysterious Heaven Hundred Treasures Record: the Flower Immortal Physique.

Author's Note:

The reason for introducing the God-grade plant "Lovesick Heartbreak Red," besides bringing out the sense of destiny in the "Red vs. Blue" confrontation (Lovesick Heartbreak Red vs. Blue Silver Emperor, approximately equal to Red vs. Blue).

It is also to better correspond with the "Thunderous Hell-Prison Vine" that Tang Wulin will obtain in the future.

Because in this world, there are only two God-grade creations, which are:

God of Love's Tear—Lovesick Heartbreak Red;

Thunder God's World Fall—Thunderous Hell-Prison Vine.

Of course, both of these are weeds (flowers) growing on the graves of deities, so their martial soul quality is naturally God-rank.
