Chaos Heaven-Dominating Technique

The space was silent, a vast, milky-white expanse. Specks of starlight drifted through it, creating a beautiful and dreamlike scene. Two ice sculptures lay upon the ground, each containing a figure—one man, one woman. Their eyes were shut, their expressions serene.

HUMMM...

Suddenly, the vast white space trembled. Countless points of light, as if pulled by some unseen force, converged on the two ice sculptures. As the light touched the ice, it began to melt at a visible rate. In a flash, the ice vanished completely, and the remaining light dispersed, flowing into their bodies.

"Ugh... Where is this?" As the light surged into their bodies, their temperatures gradually returned to normal. Their eyes slowly fluttered open, and they stared at the vast white world in confusion. The last thing they remembered was a terrifying Devouring Power welling up, followed by a bone-piercing cold that enveloped them. After that, they knew nothing.

"This... this must be the place Elder Bai Zhen told us about, for awakening our bloodlines. I can feel a very familiar aura!" Lady Ya slowly stood up, looking around as she spoke. With that, she began walking toward the depths of the white world. Seeing this, Shen Haoran quickly followed.

Lady Ya’s expression was devout, her gaze fixed straight ahead as she strode forward. Shen Haoran, walking behind her, laced his hands behind his head and continuously observed the white world. However, as far as he could see, there was nothing but white and those shimmering points of light. Shen Haoran couldn’t make out anything else.

The two of them walked forward aimlessly. After an unknown amount of time, Lady Ya suddenly stopped. Caught off guard, Shen Haoran bumped right into her back.

When Shen Haoran came to his senses, he saw that a massive stone gate had appeared before them at some point. Carved upon the gate was a lifelike Nine-tailed White Fox. The fox’s two front paws were clasped together, holding the gate shut. The sight was truly magnificent!

"This is it. I can feel that aura is very close now!" Gazing at the massive stone gate, a look of excitement appeared on Lady Ya’s face. Her bloodline seemed to answer some kind of summons, and her blood began to boil with anticipation. Her snow-white skin was now tinged with a faint blush, making her look utterly enchanting.

Lady Ya stepped forward slowly and bit her finger. Blood trickled down her slender finger and dripped onto the stone gate, seeping into it. A moment later, the tightly sealed gate began to tremble. Then, to Shen Haoran’s astonishment, it slowly swung open.

WHOOSH...

As the massive stone gate opened, an aura that felt like it came from the Primordial Chaos washed over them. It was so powerful that Shen Haoran couldn’t help but take two steps back. Before he could even call out a warning, Lady Ya had already stepped through. Seeing this, Shen Haoran hurried to follow.

BOOM...

The moment Shen Haoran stepped through the gate, it slammed shut behind him with a thunderous boom and then vanished without a trace. Seeing the gate disappear, Shen Haoran’s brows knitted together.

When Shen Haoran’s gaze fell on Lady Ya ahead, he froze for a moment. She was staring blankly at a massive statue of a Nine-tailed White Fox, her thoughts unreadable.

"Ya—" Seeing her dazed expression, Shen Haoran started to call out to her, but at that exact moment, a tremor ran through the grand hall, and the sound died in his throat.

A subtle storm of Spiritual Power began to brew in the hall. A moment later, an enormous, pure white Nine-tailed White Fox slowly materialized before Lady Ya and Shen Haoran. This was no illusion; it was the true Beast Soul of a Nine-tailed White Fox. Shen Haoran could feel a terrifying pressure radiating from it.

"At last... I’ve been waiting for you..." After the huge Nine-tailed White Fox Beast Soul appeared, a voice as beautiful as heavenly music echoed through the hall. If one listened closely, the voice was almost identical to Lady Ya’s.

Hearing this voice, a faint smile graced Lady Ya’s lips. She extended her hand, reaching slowly toward the Nine-tailed White Fox’s Beast Soul. She felt a profound sense of kinship from it.

Seeing Lady Ya reach out, the Nine-tailed White Fox extended its front paw as well. Their fingers slowly met in mid-air. The moment they touched, the massive form of a Nine-tailed White Fox slowly materialized behind Lady Ya. Then, the two figures began to merge into one.

The merged Nine-tailed White Fox grew even larger, its massive body becoming incredibly solid. The aura it emanated was even more terrifying than before. A moment later, the giant Nine-tailed White Fox suddenly trembled and then, before Shen Haoran’s eyes, exploded. It transformed into countless specks of white Spiritual Power that instantly enveloped Lady Ya, gradually forming a pure white cocoon of light.

"This..." Seeing this, Shen Haoran was reminded of when he awakened his own Chaos Divine Body. Back then, he had walked through the Ghost Gate dozens of times and nearly died there. But looking at Lady Ya’s bloodline awakening... it didn’t seem painful at all. ’Is it really that simple?’

It seemed it really was that simple. The white cocoon of light slowly stabilized and then became still. The corner of Shen Haoran’s mouth twitched. ’Seriously? Some people have all the luck. It’s enough to make you sick with envy!’

After the white cocoon stabilized, the remaining Energy coalesced once more. A small Nine-tailed White Fox appeared in front of Shen Haoran. Its enchanting eyes looked him up and down before it finally spoke after a long moment, "A member of the Human Race? You seem rather extraordinary."

"Of course he is! You should take a good look at who chose him!" Before Shen Haoran could reply, Changmao suddenly shot out from his body, looking proudly at the Nine-tailed White Fox.

"It’s you, Taotie!" Seeing Changmao on Shen Haoran’s shoulder, a hint of astonishment showed on the Nine-tailed White Fox’s face.

"Have you no manners? You should call me ’big brother.’ I’m older than you, Xiaobai!" Changmao glanced at the Nine-tailed White Fox, his expression full of smug arrogance.

"Xiaobai!" Hearing Changmao’s name for the Nine-tailed White Fox, Shen Haoran’s mouth twitched again. ’Xiaobai... Such a huge Nine-tailed White Fox, with such immense power, is being called Xiaobai? That sounds like a pet’s name!’

Hearing Changmao’s words, the Nine-tailed White Fox’s expression immediately darkened. However, she then just shook her head helplessly. In this world, the only one who dared to call her Xiaobai was Changmao. Even the other Four Great Divine Beasts, back when they stood at their Peak, would never have dared to address her so casually.

"You two..." Shen Haoran stared at Changmao and the Nine-tailed Demon Fox, who were bickering like an old married couple. His expression was a little awkward. ’Just what is the relationship between these two?’
