Silhouette of the past

As Hannya controlled the purple flames on his palm, he made run through his fingers and body. While studying the Phoenix techniques he got a huge boost in control, with the help of his system he became efficient in controlling this new power.

As he stared at the purple flames in his palm, he suddenly got an idea. It derives from the technique that was created by his other persona. The White Serpent Snake was an incredible technique that has a lot of potential. He guided the flames as it slowly formed into a miniature version of the Phoenix while producing a small cry.

"Hoh, it's working."

Hannya was filled with happiness a he tried to morphed the flames into different mythical beasts that he heard in legends.

He tried to create other creatures but unlike the phoenix, he couldn't create anything else with same life-like appearance.

He observed the flames as it flickered and danced in his palms.

Within those, Hannya could feel it's wrath and fury. It seems they refused to be contained, condemned to die without causing chaos.

He was slowly absorb in his observation as the purple flames in his palm started to coincide with the image that he last saw back on Earth. Those flames blazed with intensity as it rampaged and swept everything in their household.

Memories about the events slowly made it's way to his brain. Unbeknownst to him, the current expression plastered in his face could cause someone to wet their pants from fear. Devilish aura gathered around him as the purple flames in his hand increased it's intensity.

In his mindscape, a white-haired man looked at his current state with ecstatic expression.

Hannya felt an emotion rising in his heart, as images of people entered his mind he started to feel an orgasm. Thoughts like torturing and drinking blood even entered his thoughts.

'Ayakashi!' The soul of the Phoenix felt the stirring emotion inside Hannya which made her felt fear as she couldn't help but involuntarily shout.

Hannya's felt as if he was struck by lightning as he unconciously struck his palms upward shooting out the purple-flames he was observing.

Hannya had some lingering fear as he thought about the sudden change of his mental state earlier; If he was in normal condition such thoughts would never enter his mind yet currently he feel it.

Just what is going on?

'Do you know something?' Hannya asked the Crimson Phoenix, he doesn't feel comfortable what had just transpired, he was clearly in control of his body yet it also seems like he wasn't.

A moment later the Phoenix replied, "It may be because of Blood Fusion side-effects. Even though We signed a soul contract to stabilize the Dark Phoenix it still isn't enough to completely hold it back.' Her voice was filled with worry as she thought about Hannya's power.

'Is there a way to completely stabilize it?' His voice contained the feelings of hope.

'As far as I know, One of the three Supreme Water Beast has a strength equivalent to that of my complete form. If you can gain her approval, she may help you out.' The Phoenix spoke with uncertainty.

At this moment, Hannya doesn't have the strength and status to look for the Ice Phoenix.

'Don't worry, I will be here to help you out just in case something happens.' The Phoenix gave him an assurance.

Hannya sighed in relief, even though it's not a complete solution it was still enough for him to put his mind at ease.

Bzzzt!

Sound's of vibration can be heard in the sacred grounds, he looked upward and found the purple flames in a form of a phoenix slowly burning the barrier.

Xiao~

Baichuan and the rest could hear a deep screech coming from the sacred grounds; It was the beautiful voice of the phoenix. They felt their blood boil as they listened to it's soothing melody, unbeknonwst to them they were the only one who felt that way.

To the beasts inhabiting the Mountain, it sounded like a warcry of Death God who descended on Earth just to end their lives. Countless weak beasts succumbed to this overwhelming pressure coming from a Mythological Beast.

The aura contains a feeling of Domination and Holiness.

It was a contradicting aura yet it seems to coexist in Harmony despite it's opposite properties.

The cry of the Phoenix lasted for a few minutes, A violet phoenix shot up along with a screeching sound destroying the crimson barrier, It was so powerful that the barrier made of flames was burned into ashes.

Moments later Hannya's figure appeared in their line of sight.

As he arrived in the Platform at the Sacred Grounds entrance he saw all the clansmen lined up before him. Baichuan stood at their head, while the Elders and youngsters formed five rows behind him. All of them had solemn, respectful expressions.

With practiced movements everyone kneeled as one with their hands placed on their chest, as their thunderous voice spread throughout the forest.

"We greet the Lord."

Accepting their determination to follow him Hannya nodded and spread his arms, "Raise your heads."

Everyone raised their heads. Their movement was so coordinated that made Hannya wondered if they had practiced that movement together.

Shaking such thoughts out of his mind he looked towards them, "Phoenix Clan, I the Lord of the Night wants you to keep this in my mind; Today will be marked as the day of Phoenix rising from ashes."

"We shall follow your leadership, Oh, Lord of the Night."

Their blood boiled with excitement, everyone looked at Hannya with gratitude in their heart. He had annhilated the Black Demon Mercenary Group, saved his two daughters from harm, accepted them despite their attempt to kill him and the most important one, he removed the curse in their bloodline; essentially saving hundreds of their clansmen's future generations! He allowed their entire clan to once again possess power and dignity!

Now they will be fighting alongside this man while creating a legend that will be left behind for future generations to admire.

They had finally taken their first step towards their goal, the unstoppable rise of the Phoenix will now commence.

Everyone were swept by their emotions as some of them cried, Fang Baichuan also hugged his family members.

"Father, are we coming with Brother Nurarihyon?" Feng Zu'er asked innocently, as he peeked at Hannya with admiration in his eyes.

Feng Baichuan caressed his son's head and slowly nodded, "Yes. Since the year our ancestor committed a grave mistake, we suffered. Now together with our Lord we shall rise."

"Really?" Feng Zu'er and Feng Xian'er's eyes lit up as their faces filled with anticipation.

"Definitely." Feng Baichuan smiled. Without the cursed bloodline, their profound strength would no longer be limited, they could now become stronger.

Feng Caiyun smiled while looking at her husband and kids her eyes were filled with warmth.

Hannya looked at the interaction between Baichuan and his family, the more he look, an image of a Beautiful woman started to coincide with Caiyun's appearance, with long black hair that frames her face, and eyes that are a light brown wearing a kimono with sakura markings.

A strong emotion of longing rose in his heart. The girl looked extremely familiar yet foreign.
