Godslayer: My Forbidden Ruins Master

Deep within her sea of ​​consciousness, spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the surface of the crimson cocoon. Unconsciously, Su Daji's nine fox tails wrapped the cocoon even tighter, and the empress's phantom floated in mid-air, the imperial purple aura flowing from her fingertips continuously pouring into the cocoon.

“Click——”

With a sharp crack, the dark golden dragon claw ripped through the cocoon. A scorching shockwave exploded, forcing Su Daji to stagger backward. Amidst the rain of fire, a slender figure emerged from the flames. The dragon's tail, covered in dark golden scales, swayed gently, its long crimson hair cascading down to its waist. Divine patterns flowed between the two dragon horns on the girl's forehead, and her pupils had transformed into vertical pupils as thick as lava.

"Crimson?" Su Daji covered her red lips in astonishment. The fiery earth dragon that had once cowered in the corner of Lu Xuan's sea of ​​consciousness had now transformed into a humanoid dragon girl, and the dragon's might emanating from her every move made her soul tremble.

"Call me Chixiao." A purplish-black karmic fire ignited at the dragon girl's fingertips, her previously bewildered eyes now clear of confusion. "Fragments of the Fire Dragon King Ao Lie's memories... so the world of pure-blooded dragons is truly vast."

The Empress suddenly reached out and pressed her hand against Chi Xiao's brow, her fingertips, wreathed in golden light of destiny, forcefully probing into his consciousness. Chi Xiao instinctively unleashed his dragon might, but froze under the Empress's oppressive aura. A majestic bronze cauldron appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness, the ancient seal script character "焚" (burn) inscribed on its body crushing Ao Lie's remaining will into dust.

"He's quite a ruthless character." The Empress withdrew her finger, a rare smile playing on her lips. "That contingency plan the old dragon laid before his death, you refined into nourishment using the Void Heaven Cauldron."

Chixiao knelt on one knee, its dragon tail obediently curled at its side: "If not for the opportunity bestowed upon me by my master, Chixiao would still be a muddle-headed inferior being."

His sea of ​​consciousness suddenly trembled violently, and the anxious cries from the outside world rippled outwards. With a flick of her long sleeves, the Empress summoned three figures who instantly appeared at the core of Lu Xuan's soul. The once dazzling sphere of divine soul light, as radiant as the sun, was now dim and lifeless, its surface covered with fine cracks.

"His physical body is still forcibly absorbing the remnants of the dragon soul." The Empress frowned, staring at the Void Cauldron floating above the sphere of light, its churning magma overflowing from its mouth. "A mortal body carrying an ancient dragon soul—that's even more arrogant than when I defied the heavens and fought against the gods."

Chi Xiao suddenly transformed into a dragon and coiled around the sphere of light, the karmic fire flowing on its scales forming a barrier: "I can sense that my master's bloodline is undergoing a transformation, but his soul has been dragged into the depths of his consciousness by the dragon's resentment."

"Let me do it," Su Daji's fox tail unfurled with nine-colored light, gently enveloping Lu Xuan's soul. "Back then, when King Zhou of Shang was consumed by his inner demons, it was only through my 'Nine Apertures Exquisite Technique' that he..."

"Forget about seductive arts." The Empress pointed her fingers like a sword, and a golden dragon roared forth from her sleeve. "My 'Purple Star Emperor Scripture' is best at suppressing inner demons; you two will be my protectors."

……

In the chaos, Lu Xuan saw countless burning dragon shadows roaring. Ao Lie's twisted face emerged from the lava, his dragon claws gripping Lu Xuan's ankle tightly: "You ant who stole the glory of the dragon race! Become the fuel for my rebirth!"

A sharp pain shot through his limbs and bones, and Lu Xuan realized with a start that his skin was turning into dragon scales. Fiery dragon blood surged in his veins, and his spine emitted a cracking sound as if it could no longer bear the weight—a sign that his physical body was about to undergo a dragon transformation.

"Master!" A clear dragon's roar suddenly pierced the darkness. Before Chi Xiao arrived, the dragon's might preceded him. Ao Lie's afterimage melted away like ice and snow under the pure-blooded dragon's might, and the raging dragon blood within Lu Xuan's body instantly calmed down.

A purple-gold light descended from the sky, and the illusory figure of the Empress walked up the long staircase of fortune: "Use the way of humanity to suppress the way of dragons, and use the heart of the Emperor to govern the heart of Heaven. Watch carefully—" She drew her fingers across Lu Xuan's brow, and nine golden dragons of fortune flowed through his body along his meridians, forcibly pressing the dragon core that was about to take shape back into his heart.

Su Daji's fox tail wrapped around Lu Xuan's wrist at the right moment: "Don't get lost, little brat~" Pink mist seeped into his sea of ​​consciousness, and the boiling dragon resentment was transformed into pure soul power.

Amidst the intertwining of three forces, Lu Xuan's spiritual platform suddenly cleared. The Void Heaven Cauldron emitted a joyful hum, and the character "焚" (burn) on its body shone brightly, actually refining the remaining dragon soul into nine flowing crimson-gold blood beads.

"It's done!" The Empress suddenly stopped, gazing at the miniature dragon shadow floating above Lu Xuan's dantian. "Using the Void Heaven Cauldron as the furnace and his fortune as the fire, he actually managed to refine his natal dragon soul."

Suddenly, Chi Xiao bit her fingertip and placed a drop of her blood on Lu Xuan's heart: "Chi Xiao is willing to be bound by this oath for eternity, to help Master control the dragon soul." The moment the blood oath was formed, the dragon horn on her forehead burst forth with dazzling light, and the dragon scales that had appeared on Lu Xuan's body receded like a tide.

……

Outside the ward, the monitoring equipment suddenly emitted a piercing alarm. Hongying jumped to her feet, but Chen Muyi pressed her shoulder down: "The Phoenix Squad's medical team is maintaining his life; don't cause trouble."

"It's been seven days!" Hongying slammed her fist against the wall, spiderweb-like cracks spreading along the fist mark. "That quack doctor said something about a vegetative state, but Xiao Xuanzi is clearly..."

Xia Simeng suddenly narrowed her eyes: "The energy reading is soaring!" Everyone turned to look at the hospital bed. Without warning, purple-gold flames ignited on Lu Xuan's body, and the temperature in the ward instantly exceeded the critical value.

"Everyone, stand back!" Lin Qiye's Dark Night Divine Power transformed into a barrier. To everyone's astonishment, three illusory figures rose from Lu Xuantian's crown chariot—the Empress wielding a sword, Su Daji holding a flower, and Chi Xiao coiling a dragon. The immense pressure caused the entire building to tremble.

The illusory image of the Empress suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze piercing the boundary between reality and consciousness: "The time has come." With a light tap of her jade finger, the last trace of dragon resentment wrapped around Lu Xuan's soul shattered with a deafening roar.

On the sickbed, Lu Xuan's eyelashes trembled slightly. The Crimson Dragon's shadow, with a long cry, entered his body, while Su Daji's illusory figure leaned down to kiss his lips lightly: "If you misbehave again, I'll punish you~" Only the Empress gazed deeply at the night sky outside the window, her figure fading away before whispering: "It's time to see that Taoist priest..."

The moment he touched Lu Xuan, he was repelled by an invisible force field. Chen Muye's pupils shrank sharply—the young man's open pupils were a dark gold like lava, and the ends of his hair still flickered with lingering dragon flames.

"Sister Hongying?" The hoarse voice sent a chill down everyone's spine. His dark gold eyes quickly faded to black, and Lu Xuan stared blankly at his bandaged hand. "What happened to me..."

Xia Simeng suddenly grabbed the test report, her voice trembling: "All hidden injuries have healed, and the purity of spiritual energy has increased threefold... This is practically a human-shaped mystic!"

Lin Qiye's Dark Night Divine Power stealthily probed, but vanished without a trace upon touching Lu Xuan's meridians. He withdrew his power with a wry smile: "You're like a walking nuclear reactor now."

Rapid footsteps suddenly sounded outside the ward. Wu Xiangnan, carrying a Tang sword, burst through the door, but froze the moment he saw Lu Xuan. The former vice-captain of Blue Rain suddenly knelt on one knee, the tip of his sword digging three inches into the ground: "Little Xuanzi!! You're awake!"

Just as Lu Xuan was about to speak, a green leaf suddenly drifted in from outside the window. Before everyone's eyes, the leaf burned to ashes, and eight powerful, ancient seal characters appeared in the air:

"The foundation for the Dao has been laid; we shall meet again at Kunlun."
