Genius in the whole system: The useless young lady dominates the world

Upon arriving in Misty City, Nalan Rongzhi carried the pale-faced and weak-breathing Lu Lingxi to the most secluded mansion in the city, and then entered a secret room.

Inside the secret chamber, Nalan Rongzhi's face was solemn. He gently placed Lu Lingxi Yao on the stone platform, looking at her life force that seemed to be extinguished at any moment. He felt an indescribable pain in his heart. He knew that time was of the essence and if he did not take immediate action, she might not be able to hold on.

After taking a deep breath, Nalan Rongzhi closed his eyes and focused his mind, beginning to mobilize the magic power within his body. This magic power had the function of devouring. He slowly stretched out his palm, palm facing upward, and the magic power flowed out from his body like a trickle, gathering into a dazzling red light, and then injected into Lu Lingxi Yao's body.

For him, this process was nothing short of a gamble. Although magic could devour external energy, it could also devour her already fragile life force if she was not careful. However, faced with this critical moment of life and death, Nalan Rongzhi had no choice but to take the risk.

Meanwhile, within the Kunlun Ring, a sense of anxiety and unease filled the air. Ling Shu, Huan Yue, Huan Ying, You Ming, An Ye, and Feng Qing Xue, their divine senses intertwined, continuously calling out to Lu Ling Xi Yao, attempting to awaken her, even if it was just a faint response.

But all they received in response was a deathly silence. Lu Lingxi Yao seemed to be swallowed by endless darkness, cut off from all contact with the outside world, and fell into a deep sleep.

Everyone inside the Kunlun Ring was extremely anxious, but could only wait helplessly, placing their hopes on Nalan Rongzhi's dangerous attempt.

The paralyzed and unconscious seven-colored nine-tailed fox has awakened. Its eyes still hold a trace of resentment and confusion. Although it was somewhat unwilling to be brought into the Kunlun Ring by Lu Lingxi Yao for no reason, it seemed to understand something when it looked at the other spirit beasts!

A majestic sacred beast—the mutated Gale Wolf; next, a sacred herb from the demon realm exuding a faint demonic aura—the Divine Beast Demon Blood Vine; not far away, the aura of an ancient ferocious beast was chilling—the Divine Beast Netherworld Demon; and there was also a Netherworld Pearl floating in mid-air, this ancient evil artifact actually possessing its own intelligence; finally, there was Feng Qingxue, who had not yet awakened her phoenix bloodline, but already exuded an extraordinary temperament.

Looking at them, the Seven-Colored Nine-Tailed Fox couldn't help but feel a ripple in its heart. What kind of powerful humans could gather so many such powerful divine beasts? At this moment, it was somewhat looking forward to it. However, her current condition seemed to be very bad, and it couldn't help but worry.

But this expectation was quickly replaced by a stronger worry. It noticed that despite being surrounded by powerful figures, Lu Lingxi Yao appeared unusually fragile, as if she might collapse at any moment.

A strange emotion welled up in the heart of the seven-colored nine-tailed fox. It was a worry that was both strange and familiar. In this world where the strong are respected, any weakness could become a fatal flaw.

So, the seven-tailed fox put aside its previous resentment and arrogance, its eyes shining with unprecedented determination. It decided that no matter what the reason it was drawn into this journey, it would do its best to protect the human it both revered and looked forward to, until she awoke from her slumber.

She sensed that Lu Lingxi was under an unprecedented burden, a pressure that was like a flash flood, relentlessly squeezing the edge of her consciousness.

Ling Shu's face grew increasingly grim amid the escalating crisis. He knew that if this pressure continued, his master's mental barrier would be on the verge of collapse, with unimaginable consequences; he might lose all his cultivation and become a mortal, or his soul might be annihilated and he would perish.

"Master, wake up! Don't sleep!"

Ling Shu's call, tinged with urgency and despair, echoed in the depths of Lu Lingxi Yao's consciousness, yet seemed unable to penetrate the thick fog.

At this moment, Lu Lingxi Yao's body was in an unusual state. Beneath her skin, the blood vessels seemed to be stretched by an invisible force, clearly visible. High temperature seeped out from every inch of her skin, enveloping her like a blazing fireball, as if she were a piece of burning coals being mercilessly devoured by flames, in pain and helpless.

Faced with this situation, Ling Shu was extremely anxious, but could only do her best to continuously inject spiritual power into Lu Ling Xi Yao's body in an attempt to alleviate the pressure from the depths of her soul.

However, at this critical moment, an unusual aura quietly invaded, a faint black mist that silently seeped into Lu Lingxi Yao's spiritual sea.

Ling Shu's pupils constricted sharply, a sense of foreboding washing over her. "Magic? How is this possible..."

He whispered incredulously. The black aura was both strange and dangerous to him; it represented a power entirely different from spiritual energy—magic.

Just as the energy was about to burst through the sea of ​​consciousness, a deep and mysterious black aura suddenly emerged. It suddenly met the rampant and disordered energy. The two forces, one black and one wild, intertwined. As time went by, the black aura gradually gained the upper hand. Like a wise mentor, it guided the violent energy, turning it into a trickle that slowly flowed into every corner of the sea of ​​consciousness.

Finally, when the last trace of violent energy was completely absorbed and integrated into the sea of ​​consciousness, becoming an inseparable part of it, the entire spiritual world seemed to have undergone a rebirth, restoring the long-lost peace and harmony.

Ling Shu was deeply shocked by all of this. Due to Lu Lingxi Yao's slumber, his connection with the outside world was completely severed, but the unique black aura made Ling Shu instantly guess a person—Nalan Rongzhi.

Ling Shu knew this familiar man quite well; as long as Nalan Rongzhi was there, there was no need to worry about her master's safety.

Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, for Zisang Gucheng, Beichen Haoyu, Shangguan Yunqing, and Bai Mingxuan, although there was no news of Lu Lingxiyao, their belief remained as firm as a rock: Lu Lingxiyao still lives in some corner of this world, and one day, she will return to everyone's side.

Meanwhile, the world was in turmoil. Apart from the Hopeless Kingdom and the Azure Mist Kingdom, which were in a state of peace, the other three kingdoms were all preparing for war and making preparations for the upcoming opening of the Lost City Secret Realm.

The gates to the Lost City's secret realm have been open for less than a year, and various nations are eager to seize the opportunity and gain the upper hand in this treasure hunt.

During these long three years of slumber, Lu Lingxi Yao seemed to have been forgotten by time, lying quietly in the dark secret room without making the slightest movement. Only her steady and even breathing proved that she was alive.

During this period, her appearance quietly transformed, gaining a more mature charm, and her skin regained its former whiteness and flawlessness, but she lacked the vitality and radiance it should have had.

In the past three years, Nalan Rongzhi has recovered his original appearance. He has devoted almost all of his time to taking care of Lu Lingxi Yao, and he will never step out of the secret room unless absolutely necessary.

His gaze, gentle and affectionate, was fixed on Lu Lingxi Yao's sleeping face, his fingers lightly tracing her delicate cheeks.

"Yaoyao, it's time to wake up. Don't you still have a lot of things to do? You can't be lazy!"

Then, his hand slowly moved to her chest, feeling the pair of "peaks" below that were becoming fuller. Three years had passed, and her body had quietly grown, so the touch was no longer the same as before.

His palms continuously channeled magic into Lu Lingxi Yao's body, something Nalan Rongzhi had been doing every day for the past three years.

After Nalan Rongzhi carefully and slowly injected the last bit of magic into Lu Lingxi Yao's body, the air seemed to freeze for a moment. Then, miraculously, Lu Lingxi Yao's slender fingers trembled slightly.

Immediately afterwards, an unprecedentedly powerful aura suddenly erupted from her petite body, like a sleeping dragon finally opening its eyes, its oppressive power spreading outwards, causing the surrounding space to tremble.

Nalan Rongzhi sensed this earth-shattering change almost immediately. His eyes instantly blazed with uncontrollable joy and excitement, and his voice trembled slightly as he happily called out, "Yao Yao!"

When Lu Lingxi heard that familiar yet slightly choked voice, a warm current surged in her heart. As if drawn by an invisible force, she suddenly opened her eyes, which had been closed for three years.

She slowly sat up, feeling the unprecedented abundance of energy within her body. This power was completely different from what she felt when she was a Spirit Lord; it was much purer.

What surprised her even more was that when she tried to explore her own spiritual sea, she found it to be a dazzling sight, with countless crystal-like points of light suspended in it, each radiating a soft and sparkling glow.

"Master, you have finally woken up. Congratulations on advancing to the peak of the ninth level of the Spirit Saint realm."

Ling Shu's gentle and joyful voice rang in her mind at the right time, interrupting her thoughts. Lu Lingxi was slightly taken aback at first, and then a faint smile appeared on her lips.

When she opened her eyes again, the first thing she saw was the handsome face she had longed for. Nalan Rongzhi was gazing at her with deep affection. Their eyes met at that moment, and all the waiting and perseverance received the most beautiful response.

“Nalan Rongzhi!” Lu Lingxi’s voice was soft and slightly uncertain, with an indescribable emotion hidden in her tone.

"Yaoyao, you're finally awake. I've been so worried about you these past few days."

Nalan Rongzhi's voice was filled with barely concealed excitement. He held Lu Lingxi tightly in his arms, so tightly that it seemed he wanted to embed her deep into his body, as if he was afraid that she would disappear in the next second!

Lu Lingxi was a little confused by the sudden hug. She frowned slightly, a question rising in her mind: Had she finally woken up? Had she slept for a long time?

She quickly looked around. It was an unfamiliar room. Wasn't she in a cave? What was going on?

“Yaoyao, you’ve been asleep for three whole years.” Nalan Rongzhi’s voice was deep and gentle.

Three years? Has it really been that long?

A hint of surprise flashed in Lu Lingxi's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by even more curiosity. "Where is this?"

"This is Misty Hidden City, one of my strongholds," Nalan Rongzhi said slowly, a hint of pride in his eyes.

"Mist Hidden City? I remember, this is the territory of the Mist Hidden Sect, independent of the jurisdiction of any country, a place full of mystery." Lu Lingxi's memories gradually returned, and her tone was filled with excitement.

“That’s right, this is my base camp on the Holy Spirit Continent.” Nalan Rongzhi nodded.

Lu Lingxi turned to look at Nalan Rongzhi, a hint of amusement flashing in her eyes, "You've never told me anything about yourself. Now that you've brought me here, aren't you afraid I'll reveal your secret?"

Nalan Rongzhi gave a wry smile, his eyes full of sincerity. "It's not that I don't want to share with you, it's just that the things behind this are too complicated, and I'm worried that you might get involved in unnecessary danger. But please believe me, I have no intention of hiding anything from you. As time goes by, you will gradually understand everything."

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxi felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She nodded gently, her eyes shining with trust.

"Well, I believe you."

In recent days, Nalan Rongzhi has been rushing between busy affairs, leaving Lu Lingxi alone in her room, enjoying a rare moment of peace and quiet, yet not without loneliness.

After lying in bed for three years, she wanted to go out for a walk and feel the breeze and sunshine outside, but whenever she mentioned this, Nalan Rongzhi always dissuaded her, saying that she had just woken up and her body still needed more time to recover.

That day, feeling extremely bored in her room, she flashed into the Kunlun Ring. These three years were a long wait for the outside world, but for those within the Kunlun Ring, the Illusionary Moon, the Phantom, the Netherworld, and the Dark Night, it was a period of confinement. Although they couldn't come out, they found their own breakthroughs and growth in endless cultivation.

Illusion Moon has broken through to become a second-star divine beast, Illusionary Divine Beast a ninth-star, and Netherworld Super Divine Beast a first-star. As for Dark Night, this special existence does not have the traditional cultivation level division, but its ability to control dark creatures is even higher.

Meanwhile, within the Kunlun Ring, with Lu Lingxi Yao's breakthrough, earth-shattering changes have occurred, and its space is now as large as two Lingyue Kingdoms.

As soon as Lu Lingxi entered the Kunlun Ring, a warm and familiar aura instantly enveloped her. Her four loyal beasts, Huan Yue, Huan Ying, You Ming, and An Ye, eagerly surrounded her, their eyes sparkling with excitement and joy, and exclaimed in unison, "Master, you've finally woken up!"

Immediately afterwards, Feng Qingxue's clear and melodious voice rang out. Her face was full of relief, and her eyes glistened with tears as she happily exclaimed, "Yaoyao! You worried me so much!"

Faced with the care and concern of everyone (and the beasts), Lu Lingxi's eyes welled up with tears. She responded with deep gratitude, "Thank you! It's so good to have you all here!"

After a warm and friendly chat, Lu Lingxi's gaze finally fell on the seven-colored nine-tailed fox standing quietly not far away. She remembered that three years ago, after she put it into the Kunlun Ring, an accident happened, and a sense of apology welled up in her heart.

She slowly walked towards the Seven-Colored Nine-Tailed Fox and said softly, "Seven-Colored Nine-Tailed Fox, I'm sorry. Because of me, I've trapped you here for three years. Now that I've woken up, if you want freedom, I will respect your choice and let you leave."

The seven-colored nine-tailed fox's deep eyes gleamed with wisdom as it responded in an almost admiring tone, "You are quite good. No wonder they all admire you so much and are willing to form a contract with you. I can feel your sincerity and kindness. I believe you will be a reliable master. Therefore, I am willing to sign a contract with you and become your contracted beast!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxi was both surprised and delighted, but she still did not want to force the Seven-Colored Nine-Tailed Fox, so she asked again, "Are you really not going to regret it?"

The seven-tailed fox shook her head firmly, her tone filled with determination, "No regrets!"

With the establishment of the contract, a powerful force surged within Lu Lingxi Yao's body, causing her cultivation level to leap directly from the peak of the Spirit Saint to the third level of the Spirit Emperor, greatly increasing her strength.

At the same time, Huan Yue also made a breakthrough, advancing from a second-star divine beast to a third-star one. Huan Ying and You Ming's cultivation levels also improved, but it was not yet time for them to break through.

The Seven-Colored Nine-Tailed Fox, after breaking through to the Super Divine Beast Level 1, miraculously gained an additional tail, making it appear even more majestic and extraordinary.

After the contract was signed, the seven-colored nine-tailed fox was secretly amazed. Its master was a master of all elements, possessing even more elemental abilities than it. At this moment, it was even more certain that it had chosen the right master!

Lu Lingxi Yao's gaze gently fell on the seven-colored nine-tailed fox, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. She parted her lips slightly, her voice carrying a hint of inquiry and tenderness.

"Do you have a name?"

Upon hearing this, the seven-colored nine-tailed fox's lively eyes seemed to contain the stars and the sea. It raised its head slightly, and its eight tails swayed gently according to its will, radiating a charming luster.

Its voice was clear and melodious, carrying an undeniable pride and liveliness: "Master, my name is Nine-Tailed Fox, this is my name."

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxi Yao couldn't help but smile, and her eyes showed even more appreciation and approval.

"Nine-Tailed... What a great name!"
