Up in the high sky of System #65, the golden war-chariot beneath Third Young Master Jin Wuji’s feet melted into liquid gold in half a second!
As the mouthful of Golden-Crow Royal Heart-Blood soaked into Jin Wuji’s chest, an ancient, terrifying drumbeat echoed from the depths of his dantian. Unlike the twelve branch Fire Envoys—whose flames relied on secreting greasy Sun-Marrow Oil—Jin Wuji was a direct lineal descendant of the Golden-Crow Sun Patriarch, carrying a drop of the ancestral First Sun Origin Blood!
“You washed my twelve envoys with kitchen soap?! You bribed my nine Fire-Drakes with roasted potatoes?!”
Jin Wuji’s hair stood straight on end, turning into ten thousand whips of pure, blinding white-gold light. He threw his head back and let out a furious, ear-splitting crow cry that shattered the clouds across half the continent:
“ANCESTRAL BLOODLINE AWAKENING: UNDYING GOLDEN-CROW TRUE FIRE!”
KRA-KOOOOOOOM!
Space itself warped and cracked around Jin Wuji’s body!
A pillar of pure, smokeless, crystal-clear golden fire erupted a hundred miles into the upper atmosphere. Inside that pillar of light, Jin Wuji’s body expanded ten times larger than any of his envoys—transforming into a hundred-mile-wide Royal Three-Legged Golden Crow that looked like a miniature, living star!
