Netherworld Venerable Emerges

This phoenix was wreathed in crimson radiance. It spread its wings and soared high, its vast aura sweeping across the entire world.

The phoenix circled through the skies before returning to Blood Phoenix Mountain.

With a shift, it transformed into Huang Xudao.

Having begun a new lifetime, Huang Xudao shone all over with the light of the Great Dao. His blood and vitality were incomparably robust, making him seem like an Immortal Phoenix from the Immortal Domain.

The deathly aura around him had long since dispersed, replaced entirely by surging life force.

The aura of life flowed through him, his blood and vitality surging into the heavens with boundless divine power.

"Death in the flames, rebirth in the flames!"

"What a perfect cycle of Nirvana!"

"So this is the profound meaning of Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold!"

This Nirvana had been unimaginably perilous.

He had nearly truly died.

Like Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold being reborn amid fire, he had successfully awakened the innate racial talent unique to the Blood Phoenix Lineage.

Everything could begin anew.

After destroying everything, one could obtain new life amid destruction.

"My transformation in this lifetime has greatly enhanced everything—my physique, bloodline, lifespan, and strength!"

"No wonder Demon Venerable was so powerful!"

After Huang Xudao entered his Third Lifetime, apart from briefly visiting Undying Mountain to speak with Demon Venerable, he had basically remained in seclusion at Blood Phoenix Mountain.

When he had lived for roughly twenty thousand years in his Third Lifetime, he felt that there was not enough time in this world for him to enter his Fourth Lifetime. He still needed more time for enlightenment.

Thus, he opened a passage to the Strange World.

Transforming into a blood-colored phoenix, he charged into the Ascension Passage.
