Although the Supreme Master of the Nine Suns had managed to escape from the ruins of the Nine Dragons, bringing with him two drops of the blood essence of the Nine Dragons, he had sustained injuries in the process. He had not anticipated that his master, Martial Emperor Di Yi, would suddenly turn against him, inflicting serious wounds and stripping him of his Nine Yang bloodline. Martial Emperor Di Yi had also taken one of the drops of the Nine Dragons' blood essence.
Martial Emperor Di Yi, however, had greatly underestimated the power of the Supreme Master's Nine Suns bloodline. This bloodline held divine qualities and was shrouded in mystery. In a desperate bid for survival, the Supreme Master of the Nine Suns detonated his own body and bloodline, narrowly escaping as a fragment of his soul, clutching the Supreme Shrine. He had managed to preserve a portion of the Nine Dragons' blood essence during his escape.
