Chapter 5197 Seeing the Jewel Blood Jade Orchid Again

At the very front of the palace stood a lotus throne, about three meters wide, with a statue perched atop it. The statue, however, was crudely made out of mud—so rough that it was barely recognizable as a human figure. It was impossible to tell if it depicted a man or a woman.

Lu Chengkong couldn’t help but shake his head when he saw the statue, while the accompanying disciple bitterly smiled. The latter said, “You can tell how much they feared the Pill Ancestor. They only dared to act this way after sealing her statue in mud. Were they not just covering their own eyes and pretending to be invisible?”

Long Chen was speechless. These higher-ups of the Pill Institute were truly geniuses. How did they manage to come up with such a ridiculous idea? It must have taken real effort.

As they approached, the statue quivered, and the mud seal on it started to flake off. Divine light pierced through the cracks, and a mighty sacred pressure slowly unfurled. It was a gentle pressure, but it caused Lu Chengkong and the disciple to prostrate themselves on the ground, as if standing before the Pill Ancestor was an act of blasphemy.

This was Lu Chengkong’s first time seeing the Pill Ancestor’s statue. Despite his status, he prostrated himself just like the disciple. In front of this statue, there was no difference between a dean and a disciple.

“Ah!” Yu Qingxuan suddenly clenched her head, her face contorted in pain as if something was trying to break free from her mind.

At that moment, the mud seal on the statue crumbled entirely. Yu Qingxuan’s pain intensified, and Long Chen quickly placed a hand on the back of her head, channeling his Spiritual Strength to connect their souls, merging their minds as one.

Long Chen felt an overwhelming flood of information pouring out from somewhere, crashing into Yu Qingxuan’s mind. The sheer force of it instantly shattered their mental defenses.

In a panic, Long Chen shouted and unleashed a burst of energy, sending Yu Qingxuan, Lu Chengkong, and the disciple out of the room.

Just then, the mud seal fell away completely, and the entire palace trembled. The divine statue of a woman was revealed to Long Chen. His pupils shrank as he recognized the figure—it was the Pill Sovereign, the very woman he had seen in his mind countless times. When he had learned the eighth volume of the Nirvana Scripture, he had involuntarily shouted her name: Xin Ran.

The Pill Sovereign sat in a lotus position on the throne, her left hand forming a seal while her right hand held a flower. When Long Chen saw that flower, his heart skipped a beat—it was the Jewel Blood Jade Orchid.

Suddenly, the Pill Sovereign’s statue exploded, and the impact wiped the inner palace out of existence.

After regaining consciousness, Long Chen found himself above the nine heavens and saw the Pill Sovereign pale as paper, her eyes dim. She silently gazed at the Jewel Blood Jade Orchid in her hand, her eyes filled with grief and sorrow.

When light burst out of her, Long Chen shouted, “No!”

BOOM!

But it was too late. The Pill Sovereign had detonated, transforming into millions of points of light that scattered across the ten thousand worlds. She had chosen to self-destruct.

Long Chen roared in fury, but he was powerless to stop it. He could only watch helplessly as the scene unfolded.

Suddenly, within the darkness, enormous figures appeared one after another. Their appearances were unclear, but their size was beyond comprehension—so vast that stars orbited around them. To them, the starry river above the nine heavens was like an actual river.

These giant figures moved in unison, casting an enormous net that covered this cosmos. The millions of specks of light that the Pill Sovereign had transformed into were caught by the net.

However, one speck of light slipped through the net. As it escaped, a startled cry echoed from the depths of the cosmos.

BOOM!

A giant claw quickly followed the speck of light, causing countless stars to explode in its path. Just as the claw was about to grab the speck of light, a giant whirlpool appeared. The speck of light then dove into the whirlpool and vanished.

“She’s escaped into the path of reincarnation! Quick, track down her karma! She cannot be allowed to be reborn!” A roar, filled not just with anger but also with terror, shook the stars.

Long Chen’s vision suddenly shifted. The stars and giant figures vanished, replaced by a beautiful world filled with birdsong and blooming flowers. In the garden outside an ancient palace, countless Jewel Blood Jade Orchids were in full bloom.

At that moment, a baby’s first wail split the air, and delighted cries rang out from inside the palace. Just as the people inside celebrated the birth of this child, the image froze, and all sounds ceased. An enormous hand wrapped around the entire world.

The world transformed into a picture scroll, which the hand then started to roll up. Just as the hand completed its task, a single speck of light shot out of the scroll and vanished with a twinkle.

“Brahma Divine Diagram!” Long Chen gnashed his teeth upon seeing the scroll. He could feel the same aura as the Brahma Divine Diagram emanating from it. To crush a world into a scroll, instantly obliterating all life within it—just how vicious could one be?

Although this wasn’t the Brahma Divine Diagram itself, its appearance brought the diagram to Long Chen’s mind. He suddenly realized that the Brahma Divine Diagram was a savage weapon created by compressing an entire world into a scroll. The power of the world and all its lifeforms were converted into energy.

It was no wonder that every Brahma Divine Diagram Long Chen had encountered was filled with boundless resentment. It was not a divine weapon forged through conventional means, but one made by exploiting a supreme law that compressed life itself.

“Lord Brahma, you ingrate!” Long Chen gnashed his teeth so hard that blood began to ooze from his gums, his eyes filled with icy killing intent.

Consumed by fury, he failed to notice an azure lotus slowly blooming behind him. Countless runes formed into chains atop the lotus, silently merging into its structure.
