The Tiansheng Dynasty palace was shrouded in silence late at night. The bright moonlight poured like water on the glazed tiles, reflecting a faint cold light.
Su Qinghuang stood alone in front of the altar deep in the Forbidden Palace, his black dragon robe swaying slightly in the night wind, and the phoenix pattern embroidered with gold thread on the corner of his robe was faintly visible.
Her fingertips gently stroked the seemingly ordinary bluestone slab in the center of the altar, and her nails shone like pearls in the moonlight.
"Zhao Wuji, you have to return what doesn't belong to you."
She whispered softly, her voice almost inaudible.
Su Qinghuang took a deep breath, and a drop of bright red blood flew out of his forehead and dripped onto the bluestone slab.
The moment the blood touched the stone slab, it spread rapidly along the complex patterns on the stone slab's surface like a living thing.
"With my bloodline, I will open the seal of my ancestors."
The bloodstains on the bluestone slabs became brighter and brighter, gradually changing from dark red to dazzling gold.
The entire stone slab began to sink slowly, revealing a deep cave entrance.
An ancient and powerful aura surged out of the cave, causing Su Qinghuang's robe to rustle.
She stepped into the cave without hesitation and walked slowly along the spiral stone steps downward.
With every step she took, the ancient runes on the wall automatically lit up, illuminating the way forward for her.
These runes were a strange dark gold color, with patterns so complex they were dizzying.
The stone steps seemed endless, but Su Qinghuang walked with extraordinary determination.
After an unknown amount of time, she finally arrived at a huge underground palace.
In the center of the palace, a circular formation with a diameter of one hundred feet was embedded in the ground. It was composed of countless complex golden lines, and each line was flashing with a faint light.
"Mother, I did it."
Su Qinghuang stood at the edge of the formation, her voice trembling slightly.
Her eyes swept across the phoenix-shaped groove in the center of the formation. That was the core that required the essence and blood of the Su family to activate.
Memories flooded back like a tide, and she seemed to be back in that night of blood and fire when the army of the Tiansheng Dynasty attacked the palace of the previous dynasty.
She hid in a secret room and watched her father die in battle through the cracks.
The mother held her young daughter in her arms, tears silently streaming down her face.
Although Li Lingge helped her seize the throne and made her the empress of the Tiansheng Dynasty.
But Li Lingge didn't know her origin. In fact, she was a princess of the previous dynasty.
The ancestors of the Tianyan Dynasty have been secretly plotting the fortune of the entire star field. By drawing the fortune of each divine realm and gathering it in one person, they can obtain the power of the ancient gods.
They had already secretly set up formations in various divine realms throughout the star field, and they were only one step away from obtaining the power of the ancient gods.
Unfortunately, Zhao Wuji's ancestors learned the news and launched a palace coup.
However, the Zhao family never knew where the formation was, so this matter became an eternal mystery.
As a relic of the previous dynasty, she was the only one who knew this secret.
In order to activate the formation, the necessary condition is to possess the luck of a country, so Su Qinghuang deliberately wanted to become the empress of the Tiansheng Dynasty.
One is for revenge, and the other is to gain good luck and obtain the power of the ancient gods.
Su Qinghuang clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into her palms.
For this day, she endured humiliation and turned from a princess of a fallen country into a noble concubine of the Tiansheng Dynasty, and then ascended to the throne of empress with the help of Li Lingge.
Now, she finally did it.
"Now, it's time."
Su Qinghuang walked to the center of the formation, took off the phoenix hairpin on her head, and cut her wrist without hesitation.
Blood flowed into the Phoenix groove like a spring and was instantly absorbed by the formation.
The entire underground palace began to vibrate, and the golden lines on the formation quickly lit up as if they were injected with life.
Light shot up from the underground palace, penetrated through layers of palace walls, and reached the sky.
In the sky above the Tiansheng Dynasty, a huge golden phoenix shadow slowly took shape, emitting a clear cry.
At the same time, strange phenomena appeared in the sky of other divine realms in the star field.
Xuandan Divine Realm, Qingming Divine Realm, Zixiao Divine Realm...
The shadow of a golden phoenix also appeared in the sky.
These shadows echo each other, forming a network covering the entire star field.
Su Qinghuang stood in the center of the formation and felt an unprecedented power awakening in his body.
Her long hair moved without wind, and her eyes gradually turned into pure gold.
The luck from various divine realms drawn from the formation converged towards her through the network formed by the phoenix's shadow, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea.
"ah--"
She raised her head and let out a long howl, her voice a mixture of pain and ecstasy.
The process of Qi entering the body is like thousands of ants gnawing at your heart, and every inch of your skin is burning.
Her dragon robe was torn into pieces by the violent energy, revealing a body covered with golden lines.
Above the palace, the golden phoenix shadow became more and more solid.
The luck of the entire Tiansheng Dynasty was madly drained by the formation. The people woke up from their sleep and looked at the golden phoenix in the sky that covered the sky in horror.
Livestock neighed restlessly, and flowers, plants and trees withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The masters of the divine courts of various divine realms all looked at the strange phenomenon in the sky with solemn expressions. They could clearly feel that the fortune of their divine realm was slipping away, but they were powerless to do anything.
Countless God Emperors tried to stop the loss of luck, but were directly repelled by the pressure emitted by the golden phoenix shadow.
In the underground palace, Su Qinghuang's body is undergoing amazing changes.
Three pairs of golden wings slowly grew out from her back. Each wing was made of pure energy, and a gentle flapping of it caused space vibrations.
"Is this the power of the Ancient God?"
Su Qinghuang felt the divine power surging in his body, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
