Ye Chenfeng's blood is being drained into a golden coffin to revive a being called Skyhawk. His companions, Song Lanruo and Fang Duo'er, attempt to help but are repelled. Just as Ye Chenfeng is about to pass out, the Seven Colored Divine Spring within him activates. This 'Earth's blood' surges out, causing Skyhawk immense pain and reversing the blood drain, allowing Ye Chenfeng to break free and confront his attacker.

In the lid of the coffin, dark red blood keeps emerging, the roar of Skyhawk fills the heavens and earth.

"Little thing, I will tear you to pieces."

The entire golden coffin suddenly started to shake. With a "bang!" the heavy lid flipped upwards autonomously into the air.

Ye Chenfeng suddenly stepped back five paces.

With a "swish!"

The Seven Colored Divine Spring darted back into Ye Chenfeng’s body, and finally returned to his Dantian.

Above his palm hovered a mass of dark red blood, which presumably came from the Skyhawk. With this blood, it should be enough to receive the Eternal Emperor’s legacy.

After the coffin lid autonomously opened, Ye Chenfeng could see the sight inside the coffin.

Inside lay a corpse, tightly wrapped in strips of cloth resembling bandages.

The coffin was filled with thick blood, which continually entered and exited the corpse’s body, creating a continuous cycle.

Ye Chenfeng squinted slightly. From the coffin, he saw red gas continuously emerging.

This red gas spread rapidly in all directions. Ye Chenfeng picked up a stone and tossed it into the range of the red gas. The stone vanished into nothingness upon touching the gas.

The red gas emerging from the golden coffin was definitely no ordinary matter, and a protective barrier appeared around the golden coffin.

Based on Ye Chenfeng’s preliminary assessment, breaking through this barrier couldn’t be accomplished in a short time, and he wasn’t sure whether it could withstand the spreading red gas.

Solving the problem of Skyhawk at this moment seemed impossible. He glanced at Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er, who couldn’t stand up, then instantly appeared next to them and grabbed them.

As for the Skyhawk’s blood, Ye Chenfeng temporarily solidified it with Spiritual Energy and casually tucked it into his bosom. He rushed underground with Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er, unable to find a way out from there, so it was better to first check what the Eternal Emperor’s legacy was?

In such circumstances, Skyhawk couldn’t actively attack either. Ye Chenfeng speculated that Skyhawk couldn’t do anything to them in the short term; they just needed to avoid the red gas permeating the air.

After entering the underground passageway, they rushed down a staircase quickly, along the path Ye Chenfeng kept smashing the stone walls on both sides, causing constant falling stones.

After traveling a considerable distance, Ye Chenfeng set down Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er.

Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er still couldn’t comprehend the situation. They hadn’t expected this result? Ye Chenfeng led them to survive again?

The stone debris blocking the passage couldn’t stop the red gas, but at least it could delay it for a while.

The red gas generally floated upwards, with only a small part drifting downward.

Ye Chenfeng could see that Skyhawk couldn’t control the gas; otherwise, he would have attacked with it earlier.

After exhaling deeply, Ye Chenfeng continued to rush downwards with Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er, constantly smashing the stone walls. They soon arrived at the palace they had reached earlier.

Ye Chenfeng spoke to Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er, "You two, take care of yourselves and heal your wounds first."

Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er nodded, yet their eyes remained fixed on Ye Chenfeng’s body.

Ye Chenfeng no longer paid them any mind and went straight to the Eternal Emperor’s mummy.

The memory retrieved earlier clearly explained that by dripping Skyhawk’s blood onto the Eternal Emperor’s corpse, the Emperor’s legacy should emerge.

Ye Chenfeng took out the Skyhawk’s blood, and upon releasing the Spiritual Energy, the originally coagulated blood began to flow and dripped onto the Eternal Emperor’s mummy.

After the blood dripped.

The blood quickly seeped into the Eternal Emperor’s mummy, and a scarlet glow emerged from the originally shriveled body.

Suddenly, an incredible scene unfolded: the mummy of the Eternal Emperor began expanding.

In just seconds, what remained of the mummy?

The body of the Eternal Emperor completely transformed, returning to its living appearance, full with restored flesh and gradually rosy complexion.

This sight made Ye Chenfeng step back two steps, while Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er, sitting cross-legged on the ground not far away, held their breath.

But.

An even more astonishing scene followed; the Eternal Emperor’s eyes twitched twice and slowly opened, his sharp gaze fixed directly on Ye Chenfeng.

Under the Eternal Emperor’s relentless gaze, Ye Chenfeng felt chilled to his core. Events went beyond his expectations; could it be that the Eternal Emperor could truly revive? Could Skyhawk’s blood bring back the Eternal Emperor?

While Ye Chenfeng was lost in wild thoughts.

The Eternal Emperor smiled faintly without saying a word.

With a "bang!"

The Eternal Emperor’s body exploded, without a trace of blood mist, and dissolved into a glorious white light in the air.

Once the white light dispersed, an ancient tome floated in the air, crafted from a mysterious black metal, bearing the inscription "Eternal Codex" on its cover.

Eternal Codex?

So this is the Eternal Emperor’s legacy?

Ye Chenfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief; knowing now that the Eternal Emperor hadn’t actually revived, he simply had inscribed a formation within himself or had created a mechanism.

The earlier scene of the Emperor’s revival was merely an illusion; evidently, without using Skyhawk’s blood, the Emperor’s legacy couldn’t appear; the Eternal Codex had merged with the Emperor’s body, and without Skyhawk’s blood triggering its release, dismantling the Emperor’s body wouldn’t reveal the Eternal Codex.

Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er naturally saw the Eternal Codex floating in the air too, involuntarily breathing deeply.

"Lanruo sis, is this the Eternal Emperor’s legacy?" Fang Duo’er asked, pursing her lips.

Song Lanruo nodded slightly, "It should be."
