474: Nirvana and Rebirth

“Oh no!”

Su Han’s heart blared with a warning like a volcanic eruption!

His body, which had just been pushed to its limit and then suddenly relaxed, was now like a bowstring that had been over-taut and then released. Trying to instantly unleash his Phoenix power to dodge was now incredibly difficult!

That faint trace of vitality, which had merged into the Void Realm, now seemed like the most ironic bait.

Too fast!

So fast that just as the Phoenix phantom’s outline fleetingly appeared, those countless fatal purple rays had already reached his skin!

“Puff, puff, puff, puff—!”

A dense, scalp-numbing sound of tiny penetrations echoed deep within Su Han’s Divine Soul!

It wasn’t attacking his external armor; those ethereal purple rays could ignore physical defenses, directly bypassing the Starry Mithril Divine Armor and fiercely drilling into the Void Realm nodes, acupoints, and pores all over his body!

In an instant, countless cold, greedy, and extremely malicious Power of Gui Xu, originating from the same source, were like countless tiny suction cup tentacles, firmly embedding themselves into his Meridians, flesh, and bone marrow!

“Ugh—!”

Su Han’s entire body trembled violently, as if instantly pierced by countless ice picks!

An indescribable agony and profound chill swept through his entire body. It wasn’t just physical pain; it was more like his Soul being gnawed by countless hungry evil spirits!

Terrifying corrosive power spread, and Su Han clearly felt his meticulously tempered dark-gold divine blood being frantically absorbed and contaminated!

The rotation of the miniature Return to Ruins core suddenly became sluggish, as if bound and dragged by countless tough chains!

This was the ultimate backlash after annihilation! It was the ‘Gui Xu Seed’ transforming its last remaining Origin, before death, into an unsolvable curse to corrode those of the same Origin!

It wanted to use Su Han as its final nourishment to achieve Rebirth in another sense!

The shadow of death had never been so heavy!

Su Han’s vision blurred, and the power within his body surged out like a collapsing dam.

The Extinction Reincarnation Seal, which had just eliminated a powerful enemy, contained a nascent power that was utterly unable to resist the countless tiny yet concentrated Return to Ruins corrosion at this moment!

Desperation!

Give up? Sink? Become the final breeding ground for this dead seed?

Illusions of countless annihilated beings flashed through Su Han’s mind, followed by images of his companions bathed in blood, finally settling on the destructive beam of light shot from that terrifying eye—No! Absolutely not!

A flame originating from the deepest part of his Soul ignited with a roar!

It was a will to survive more primal and more frantic than Phoenix fire!

“You want to devour me?! Then… I’ll make you burst!”

In Su Han’s blood-red eyes, an untamed arrogance and madness erupted, capable of incinerating galaxies!

He completely abandoned his defenses, using his Soul as a guide and his will as a weight, fiercely pushing the almost depleted miniature Return to Ruins core within his body in the direction of complete loss of control!

“Boom—!”

His internal Starry Furnace seemed to self-destruct at this moment!

The already fatigued and dim miniature Return to Ruins core, under Su Han’s self-destructive urging, unleashed a terrifying suction force far beyond its limit!

It wasn’t a normal rotation, but a chaotic inward collapse, like twisting and breaking!

“Buzz—!!!”

Centered on Su Han’s body, a miniature, utterly dark vortex instantly formed!

This vortex was no longer the previously balanced and peaceful Power of Gui Xu, but was filled with a frantic aura of self-destruction, annihilation, and devouring everything! It was the Extinction Return to Ruins Dark Vortex!

The countless ethereal purple rays, which had been frantically devouring Su Han’s Origin and essence blood, were caught off guard!

They had greedily pierced in, but now they were like falling into the maw of a gluttonous beast, a billion times greedier than themselves! A supreme suction force suddenly erupted from within Su Han’s body, acting in reverse!

“Rip—!”

Countless purple rays let out a silent, shrill scream!

Their “root systems” were firmly entangled and pulled back by the destructive vortex formed within Su Han’s body!

It was no longer them devouring Su Han, but their pure Return to Ruins evil energy being frantically extracted, pulled back, crushed, and devoured by the self-destructive dark vortex within Su Han’s body!

This was an extremely brutal tug-of-war!

The struggle occurred within every single particle of Su Han’s body!

The ethereal purple rays twisted frantically, attempting to break free and release more malicious energy to pollute Su Han’s will and Origin.

But Su Han, relying on his frantic will of burning Soul and blood, pushed the power of the Extinction Dark Vortex to its extreme.

The intense pain in his body had become a driving force. His dark-gold blood, while being corroded, was also boiling and roaring. The power of star creation and destruction hidden deep within his Bloodline was more active than ever before, forcefully incinerating and grinding the continuously incoming Return to Ruins evil energy into the most primitive annihilation particles.

Then, in turn, these particles were brutally absorbed by the frantically rotating miniature Return to Ruins core, transforming into the power needed to sustain the destructive vortex’s continued operation!

Fighting to sustain the fight! Using the enemy as fuel!

An aura of destruction steamed from Su Han’s body. His battle armor further shattered, and countless fine, ethereal purple cracks appeared on his skin, as if he would completely disintegrate in the next second.

But his eyes, burning with dark-gold and crimson flames, were terrifyingly bright, fixed on the Void Realm ahead, where countless light points were engaged in a final struggle with him inside his body.

Ultimately, Su Han’s will, which had fused with Phoenix Nirvana and was indestructible through countless calamities, along with his deep comprehension of the Law of “Extinction and Rebirth” deeply rooted in his Bloodline, became the final mountain that tipped the scales!

“Extinction… Rebirth… Reincarnation… Break… for me!”

Su Han roared, the last word “Break” like a thunderclap that split heaven and earth!

The frantically rotating Extinction Dark Vortex within his body exploded with a roar! It wasn’t an outward release, but the ultimate annihilation after collapsing inward to the extreme!

Silent waves of destruction swept through every corner of Su Han’s body.

“Puff—!”

The countless ethereal purple rays that had invaded his body, like dust thrown into a furnace, were completely crushed and annihilated in this internal, even purer “Power of Gui Xu” explosion, without even a whimper. They transformed into a pure but harmless Chaos energy, which Su Han’s forcefully sustained, battered miniature Return to Ruins core ravenously devoured!

A chaotic storm violently surged around Su Han’s body for a moment, then slowly subsided.

He hovered in the Void Realm, covered in blood, his clothes ragged, his battle armor severely damaged, and his aura extremely weak.

But his eyes were as resolute as ever.

In front of him, the tens of millions of kilometers of Void Realm Chaos were slowly repairing themselves, but terrifying marks of destruction still lingered.

And within Su Han’s body, an unprecedented, more solidified, yet subtly dangerously “hungry” miniature dark star nebula was slowly recovering from the brink of death, absorbing the last bit of… “nourishment” remaining from that astonishing and horrifying consumption just now.

“Hoo… hoo…”

Su Han gasped violently, each breath pulling at a splintering pain.

His gaze swept over the slowly “healing” Void Realm Chaos, his eyes deep and solemn.

The Ancestral Demon seed has been completely annihilated and no longer exists. (End of Chapter)
