It was early in the morning by the time An Long arrived at the Medicine King’s Valley. He found that the enchantment barrier was broken and the Poisonous Fog Formation had been forcibly shut down. Everyone in the Medicine King’s Valley was placed under a sleep spell. They had fallen asleep everywhere, in complete disarray.
The Medicine King’s Valley became a treasure house with its doors thrown open for thieves to plunder.
Fortunately, the news hadn’t spread far, and not many people have come.
An Long released enough Gu’s to blot out the sky and cover the earth. They immediately swallowed alive two demon cultivators. The others fled in fright. He looked around with his mental probe and finally determined Yue Wuhuan’s location. His brows furrowed in a frown, the feeling of wrongness grew stronger. Concealing his aura, he made his way to him. What he was met with was the sight of burning ruins. Yue Wuhuan was curled up in the shadow of the ruins. A Foundation Building thief, holding a scimitar in his hand, was quietly approaching him, obviously taking advantage of his inattention to kill him and plunder the place…
He raised the scimitar and with a boundless killing intent, slashed towards his neck.
Yue Wuhuan put up no resistance.
An Long picked up a random stone and shot it, instantly shooting through the thief’s head. He strode over to see what the lunatic was up to. However, when he saw the person in front of him clearly, he was stunned…
Overnight, Yue Wuhuan’s black hair had turned white. His face and body, were covered in bloody dripping wounds. All his nails were cracked from scratching, and in the gaps were blood. His peerless beauty was completely gone, but he felt no agony. He was still scratching the skins on his arms, tearing the flesh, as though he wanted to destroy himself completely. Only the ragged, practically shattered life card in his arms, was cherished with the greatest care.
An Long couldn’t stand it anymore. He grabbed his hand, trying to stop this terrifying self-mutilation. However, the auditory hallucinations in his mind reappeared, struggling to produce a faint voice, trying rouse his desire to kill.
“Kill him, kill him…”
“Kill him, kill him…”
“He took away the person you like…”
“It was he who caused you to fall into the abyss…”
“…”
An Long grabbed Yue Wuhuan by the collar. He dragged him out of the shadows, and threw him into the sunlight. “Stand up! The way you look, I’ve lost any interest in killing you!”
Guarding the life card, Yue Wuhuan fell to the ground without any resistance. Even in the presence of monstrous killing intent, with a hated enemy was by his side, he could neither hear nor see it.
This person was now a complete waste.
Although An Long hated Yue Wuhuan deeply, he still had to admit that he was a beauty to shock the world and arouse hopeless envy. He was an unparalleled talents and was a good opponent. Now, seeing him completely ruining himself, for some reason, the hatred in his heart dissipated, replaced by emptiness and loneliness. He felt slightly at a loss.
He tried to bring Yue Wuhuan back to his senses. “Do you know that Qingshi has disappeared?”
Yue Wuhuan’s eyes moved slightly.
An Long detected the change and continued to provoke him, “I saw him being taken away by a strange space. Do you know what that was?”

He continued to ask several times.

But, Yue Wuhuan didn’t.
He was no different from a corpse save for breathing.
“Have you gone crazy enough yet?!” An Long ran out of patience and finally got angry. He lifted up Yue Wuhuan and wanted to lay a couple of punches to see if he could wake up. But looking at the wounds all over his body, he didn’t know where he could land his punches. Finally, he deflated. He mocked, “Qingshi’s so unlucky. When he made friends, it wasn’t with a normal person. When he fell in love, it wasn’t with a normal person. He invested so much in you for nothing and he died for nothing…”
Yue Wuhuan held his life card tightly and said nothing.
In the immortal realm, a life card this damaged meant death.
“Qingshi’s Heartless Dao Heart was about to break, my demon nature was out of control. If he didn’t kill me, you would definitely die by my hands,” An Long was not interested in explaining the auditory hallucinations in his mind, and he didn’t want to shirk the malice in his heart, the wrongs that he did. He and Song Qingshi had known each other for many years; he understood his thinking somewhat, and he deduced, “He wasn’t sure he would be able to kill me, so he didn’t dare tell you. He moved the battle away from the Medicine King Valley… He didn’t want to die in front of you, for fear that you would see him and it would provoke your condition.”
“Ha, he couldn’t bear to hurt you even in death…”
“The last thing he told me before he disappeared was to not kill you…”
“Yue Wuhuan! Stand up!”
“I killed Qingshi! Come and avenge him!”
“Where’s your poison? Where’s your sword? Where’s your Blood King Vine? Come on!”
Yue Wuhuan heard ‘Blood King Vine’ and finally had a reaction. “Luck…”
An Long was at a loss. “What luck?”
Yue Wuhuan said no more. After a long while, he slowly stood up, and pushed An Long away. He dragged his dying dilapidated body, his body with mottled bloodstains, and stumbled away from the Medicine King’s Valley.
Qingshi once said, ‘In dire straits, luck will come.’
He was going to the land of luck…
…
An Long checked his physical condition and knew that he would not live long, so he didn’t try to stop him. In disappointment, he sat slumped under a broken wall, looking at the dusky sky. He took out the jug of wine from the mustard seed bag. He drank fiercely, and laughed at himself. “In the end, just what was all this?”
The voice in his head was growing weaker and weaker. With a buzzing noise, it still chattered endlessly:
“Don’t let him go!”
“Kill him quickly! Kill him, kill him!”
“Letting him go will be unfavorable to you!”
An Long said in a low voice, “Qingshi said, I will regret killing him.”
The voice in his mind quickly refuted:
“He was lying to you!”
“You two are irreconcilable! You will fight each other to your last gasp!”
“Hurry up and kill him! Kill him! Kill him!”
“Twice, I killed Qingshi twice!” An Long ruthlessly smashed the wine pot. He supported his aching forehead with his hand. With a sinister smile, he said, “He didn’t love me, but he has never deceived my feelings. He would rather die than lie to me!”
“You are the liar! So just shut up!”
The voice in his head abruptly stopped.
…
The Inextinguishable Peak, the raging inferno that could burn one’s very soul, so hot that it was difficult to approach by even half a step.
Such a place of death was actually his only lucky place.
Lightning flashed and thunder resounded in the sky, as though snarling. Torrential rain poured down. Fierce gales blew violently, felling giant trees. It seemed desperate to obstruct his actions.
There were so many coincidences in the world.
Yue Wuhuan couldn’t help but smile, without the slightest hesitation, he once again jumped into the Inextinguishable Peak, jumped into the desperate straits of death. The same strange wind came blowing. It wanted to blow him into the crevice to the side. This time, he chose to reject this life-saving coincidence…
Finally, he fell into the sea of flames.
Skin, hair, flesh, blood and bones… all the filth and brokenness were burned, his weak mortal meridians were destroyed. He willingly suffered the most extreme pain, like he was staying in the happiest pure land. The phoenix birthmark on his back was affected by this joy, and it finally spread its wings, releasing his soul from the confinement of his body, fusing together with the raging fire.
Phoenix Nirvana, towards death and rebirth.
The most flawless flame in the world reunited into the most perfect body, the most gorgeous beauty on heaven and earth. He walked out of the ashes step by step, noble and powerful, above all profanity. Only the blood-red teardrop mole at the corner of his eye remained tenaciously in place, adding a bit of the color of desire to this holiness, like a god stained with a dark aura from falling into the abyss.
The flames of the Inextinguishable Peak disappeared. The barrier opened. The earth quaked and the mountain shook. Rocks scattered one after another, and a gorgeous palace rose up bit by bit. The steps were made of white jade, every place was inlaid with Night-luminescent Pearl. The gardens were carved from jadeite and all kinds of precious gems. Phoenix trees were planted everywhere. Right in the middle of the palace, there was a tower forged from gold, reaching through the clouds…
He put on a gorgeous brocade robe, sat on the high throne, and stared coldly at the sky.
The dark clouds dissipated indignantly, and the thunder disappeared unwillingly. Even though it was Heavenly law, it couldn’t provoke this power originating from the most ancient divinity. It could only temporarily retreat.
Sensing the aura of the king, birds, immortal and yao, flew excitedly from all directions towards the Inextinguishable Peak.
The pair of Biyiniao landed and turned into a pair of delicate young girls. They piously crept on either sides of the throne and prostrated themselves in obeisance. Bi Fang, Black Birds, Dapeng, Peacocks… Countless birds lower their proud heads. This was a submission ingrained in their very blood and bone, an inborn faith. They were willing to do anything for their most noble king.
“Shenjun, what is it that you wish?”
The god on the throne gently covered his nose. He felt that the air was too foul to breathe in.
This world needed to be cleaned thoroughly. All the nauseating and filthy garbage needed to be disposed. He needed to destroy that dirty name, destroy the hateful past, destroy the wrong answer…
“I want foul winds and a rain of blood, a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood…”
“I want to be the existence that everyone fears…”
“I want that from now on… there will no longer be a Yue Wuhuan in the world…”
Translator’s note: Here is an entry from SHTriangulum/Bamboo God entitled, Yue Wuhuan’s Only Light:
And here is the link to the story about the Biyiniao.
My eyes hurt from crying so hard…
Thanks for the chapter
It breaks my heart, that Yue Wuhan thinks that his the wrong answer that Song Qingshi choose 😢. YW hold on, if SQ was able to choose you 1350 times adding one more should not be a problem.
I just hope that the wait won’t be too long
🙏🙏🙏
🙃
I cried more when you mentioned that Qingshi chose him 1350 time so why not choose him again 😭
🤭🤭🤭
Thanks for the chapter!!
Wuhuan, Hold on!!
It hurts but at least i can breathe now.
so who trying to mess with Wuhuan? system or world?
thanks for the chapter~
I think the system is the God of the world/s. So both???
Sry but can someone explain this chapter to me? I really can’t seem to understand it
These were clues Song Qingshi left pointing him towards the Inextinguishable Peak where he got the Blood King Vine. Connecting these clues, he jumped into the Peak and into the lava. He pushed aside the ‘coincidental’ wind that saved him before because now, he has figured out that this is another one of Heavenly law’s tricks to mess with him. His mortal body was then burned in the lava and he was reborn into his true form, that of a god, the Phoenix (thus all the birds; thus Song Qingshi’s clue about the name of the butterfly ‘Nirvana’; thus Song Qingshi being reminded of the Black Dragon who’s friends with the Phoenix when he looks at An Long). Heavenly law then reluctantly retreats.
There are still unanswered questions like what the hell is Heavenly law and why does it want to mess with Yue Wuhuan? How did Yue Wuhuan fall into being a mortal? How is Song Qingshi related to him? etc. Some will be answered by next chapter, some much later on but all will be explained by the end of the book. =)
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️. It was a perfect summary, thanks to you I can finally understand this chapter
Ohh my god, I knew things were going too well a few chapters ago but wow, they’re all really going thru some stuff… Stay strong, you three..!
(Does this mean all the little disciples on the peak are dead 😭 Qing Luan I miss you…)
Yeah, gimme blood rain >3 Clean up all the filth out there.
Thx for the ch (ㅅ˘ㅂ˘)
Thanks for the chapter
Omg, I cried so hard these last chapters…..😭😭😭😭😭😭
Everything is so messed up.
💔😭😲
Huh, weird redemption arc for An Long, even weirder twists of rebirth. I wonder where this story will take it too o.O
No don’t please don’t erase yourself, I love you, Qingshi loves you, please!
You know what…
“Because I.. am not the protagonist shou.”
“Protagonist what?”
I feel so bad for laughing when this exchange happened
Finally, Qingshi found the problem to “no solution”. Now that “Phoenix Blood” is on Qingshi, I am not anxious for Wuhuan nor Qingshi. I am wondering now, where is the place for An Long to shed his mortal restraint?
This is not the kind of redemption I expect. I thought too much about ML lunatic side. I interpret that ML would get redemption over his lunatic side. Not because both MC and ML past.
😭😭😭😭
The story of Biyiniao is also beautiful..
What in the Nani the what why when how where just happened???!?!?!
I feel like I have whiplash from this sudden turn of events! Like, I knew something was coming since like 20 chapters ago, but this? I did not expect this at all!!
I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO FEEL
