464: Chapter 464 Nirvana Blood Pool, Supreme Immortal Bone!

In an instant, many obscure and difficult points regarding Spatial Folding and Spatial Jumping in Lu Li's mind suddenly became clear. His comprehension of the Dao of Space instantly climbed to a brand new height.

...

Just as Lu Li was casually passing through three trials as if taking a stroll in a courtyard...

...within the hall of the seventh trial—the Nirvana Blood Pool—there was a tragic scene like a Shura Hell.

This was a massive pool about a hundred feet square. It did not contain clear water, but dark red blood water as thick as lava, boiling with huge bubbles of blood.

Above the blood water, a thick layer of blood-colored mist permeated. Faintly visible within the mist was the phantom of a massive Ancient True Phoenix flapping its wings and wailing, emitting a suffocatingly terrifying high temperature and an aura of destruction.

At this moment, a naked figure completely soaked in the boiling blood water was twisting his body in pain. A roar issued from his throat, like that of a dying beast, filled with pain mixed with a hint of morbid fanaticism.

"Roar—aaaaah!"

This person was none other than Su Changkong! Relying on the Nine Nether Underworld secret treasure that his protector Guardian Su Ye had sacrificed his life for, and paying an unimaginably tragic price, he had survived the first six trials by a hair's breadth to arrive at this seventh trial ahead of time.

This Nirvana Blood Pool was no small matter. It was formed from a single drop of heart's blood from a pure-blooded Primordial True Phoenix that had fallen in ancient times, diluted and evolved through the River of Time.

The True Phoenix clan was world-renowned for their Rebirth through fire and their immortal Nirvana. This blood pool not only contained the ultimate power of destruction capable of incinerating everything in the world, but also hidden within was the supreme power of Rebirth to break out of a cocoon into a butterfly and change one's fate Heaven-Defyingly.

For ordinary people, this blood pool was a desperate place with no chance of survival. But for the cornered Su Changkong, it was his only life-saving straw for a comeback!

"Aaaaaah..."

As the blood water churned, Su Changkong felt his skin instantly carbonize and peel away. Every inch of his flesh was being ruthlessly burned and melted by the frenzied blood-fire.

That pain far exceeded death by a thousand cuts by a thousandfold; even his bone marrow was being boiled by the high temperature.

But amidst this extreme agony that could break any resilient mind, at his chest—the remnants of the Supreme Bone that had been shattered by Lu Yuan and had completely lost its divinity, becoming waste bone—was like a shark smelling blood. It began to crazily and greedily absorb the core sliver of the power of Nirvana and Rebirth within the blood pool.

"Rising from the ashes... I am not reconciled! I will rise from the ashes!"

Su Changkong's eyes were completely bloodshot, turning a terrifying crimson.

He clenched his teeth so hard that blood even seeped from his gums due to the excessive force.

In his mind, he constantly replayed the humiliating scenes of being heavily injured by Lu Yuan in Taiyi Immortal City like an ant being crushed. That sky-toppling hatred became the only motivation supporting him to stay alive in this purgatory.

"Crack! Crack!"

Accompanied by the hair-raising sound of bones shattering, the grey, failed bone fragments in his chest began to peel off piece by piece and dissolve into the blood water.

And deep within that destruction, a faint but pure purple-gold light began to glow.

A brand new, crystal-clear bone emitting a dazzling purple-gold light was regrowing and condensing from the depths of his chest at a speed visible to the naked eye!

This newborn bone was not only thicker and more perfect than his previous stolen Supreme Bone, but the Dao runes engraved upon it were also more profound and complex.

Even more shocking was that, under the stimulation of the blood pool's Nirvana power, this bone not only absorbed the immortal attribute of the Primordial True Phoenix but was also crazily devouring the ancient, supreme Immortal Dao aura drifting within this Bronze Immortal Palace, thus undergoing a qualitative, incredible, and peerless transformation!

"Boom—!"

The moment this bone was completely formed, the entire Nirvana Blood Pool shook violently! A terrifying pressure far exceeding the Perfected Xuan Immortal Realm, and even faintly carrying a trace of the indestructible Immortal Golden Nature, erupted from Su Changkong's battered body like an awakening sleeping god!

This power was so vast that the blood pool in the hall was directly blown apart by the airwave, and a rain of blood poured down from the sky.

"Bang!"

Su Changkong's figure soared into the sky from the exploding blood pool, hovering steadily in mid-air.

His originally burned flesh was regenerating at a visible speed. His long hair fluttered, and his body was surrounded by sacred and majestic purple-gold immortal light. The Dao runes floating around him were as brilliant as stars.

At this moment, he was like a young deity truly reborn from the flames, reigning over the world!

"Hahaha! I succeeded! The heavens will not destroy me! I, Su Changkong, have finally succeeded!"

Su Changkong looked down at his flawless body, feeling the power within him that was as surging and matchless as a galaxy—more than ten times stronger than before—and couldn't help but let out a morbid, wild laugh toward the sky.

Tears and blood mixed together and slid down his cheeks, yet they could not hide the almost distorted wild joy in his eyes.

"This is... the ultimate transformation of the Supreme Bone... the Supreme Immortal Bone! Hahaha! This is the Supreme Immortal Bone that only exists in legends! Now, my power is infinite, and my affinity with the Laws of the Dao has reached the extreme."

"I am only half a step away from that high-and-mighty Golden Immortal Realm! With the power of this Immortal Bone, I can even cross that insurmountable chasm and kill a true Golden Immortal across Realms!"

After the wild joy, Su Changkong's face instantly became dark and terrifying, his features twisting together due to hatred.

"Lu Yuan! Lu Li! You damned father and son!"

He roared through gritted teeth, his voice echoing in the empty hall like the curse of a ghost from the Nine Nether: "The humiliation you gave me, I want you to repay a hundredfold, a thousandfold! When I obtain the final core Legacy of this Immortal Palace and completely control this supreme Immortal Artifact, I swear I will trample your Family and tear you into ten thousand pieces! I will personally extract your Divine Souls and Seal them in Nether Ghost Fire, burning them day and night for ten thousand years, making you beg for life and death in vain!"

Just as Su Changkong clenched his fists, immersed in the infinite pleasure and frenzy of his future revenge...

"Creak—"

At the end of the hall, the heavy bronze door of the seventh trial made a sharp friction sound and was pushed open unhurriedly from the outside.

Accompanied by the sound of the door hinges turning, a green-robed figure—so familiar that Su Changkong would recognize him even if he turned to ash—walked in slowly and leisurely with his hands behind his back, whistling.

As soon as Lu Li entered the door, he smelled a pungent scent of blood.

He stopped in his tracks, looked around the hall which was pitted and in a mess, and the huge water pit that had dried up to the bottom. He frowned with some regret and whispered: "Oh dear, this seventh trial looked like a good place for a bath. Why is the water in the blood pool all dried up? Is this Formation leaking due to being out of repair for years?"
