“If you are really at ease, it will ruin you!” The reluctance in Zhang Lisheng's heart disappeared in a flash. With his emotions deeply moved, he mumbled a poetic ancient Chinese poetry and began to chant ancient incantation 'pst shh…', allowing his mind to calm down completely as he turned his gaze to the wyrmdragon on the carpet.

The body of a snake, the legs of a beast, the head of a horse; an eight-meter long body densely covered with a fist-sized water droplet-shaped dark green scales. Its slender body was beautiful and graceful while its face was ferocious and majestic.

Looking at this dragon wizard gu that had been representing the Chinese blood totems since thousands of years ago, a vague, wonderful insight made the young man mumbled a sentence for no reason, “The dragon courses in the wild, as its blood bathed in yellow…”

Then, he closed his eyes and began to spit out his breath from his chest.

At this time, the clear sky outside the window suddenly darkened; dark clouds increasingly rolled, gathering on the skies.

Guo Caiying was sitting on the sofa beside the window in the living room that could overlook the mountain that was still thick with lush green color in the late autumn of the villa that had a wide view. After having a short rest and drinking a glass of freshly squeezed juice rich in vitamins to replenish her energy, she felt that her energy had recovered. When she was about to leave, she saw dark clouds suddenly appearing outside the window, causing a troubled look to appear on her face at once.

“Miss Guo, the late autumn weather is so unpredictable. There's already a rain cloud in the sky, so it'd be terrible if you encounter a downpour halfway in your journey. What do you think of staying here until dinner time or at least until the rain has finally stopped?” A composed, middle-aged man wearing a tuxedo with a black bow tie, who has a courteous and polite manner of speaking along with a melodic British accent, was sharply aware of the girl's hesitant look. Without a hint of rush nor slowness, he advised her.

“Okay then, Mr. Torres!” Guo Caiying stared at the weather that was worsening outside of the window and sighed helplessly, “I guess I'll stay until the rain stops, but, I can't just wait the hours to waste away by drinking juice, right?”

“You're a distinguished guest that Sire brought, so as the butler of the house, I'll do my best to make sure you have a pleasant afternoon!” The middle-aged man said with a smile. “What do you think about watching a movie synchronized with the premiere? Even though the venue is a private theater with only 50 seats, the equipment is unmatched by the best public cinemas.”

“This house even has a private cinema? Ha! How luxurious!” It baffled the girl for a moment before nodding, “That sounds good, but I don't want to watch any movie synchronized with the premiere. I haven't watched the 'World's Steel Warrior' that was released the day before yesterday! Is it possible for me to watch that film?”

“Of course, as long as you can tell me the name, you can choose freely as you like. Please follow me!” The butler of Zhang Lisheng's villa said as he guided Guo Caiying, who had become excited, to walk to the side door of the living room. Right at this moment, Zhang Lisheng, who had exhaled all the air in his body, had a deeply sunken chest now. Opening his eyes, he outlined the Demon's image according to the cultivation secret method and took a deep breath.

Just like how he transformed the wizard Gus and made a breakthrough in witchcraft in his two previous attempts, as the young man made a faint inhaling sound, the surrounding space before the wyrmdragon began to distort and blur. Then, a gush of yellow smoke drifted out of the wizard gu's body soundlessly, floating into Zhang Lisheng's mouth and nose.

According to previous experience, the instant the smoke entered his mouth, an unbearable, indescribable, and strange taste should immediately fill his mouth, nose, trachea, and even his esophagus, testing Zhang Lisheng's tenacious will. However, this time, after the yellow smoke entered his body, it caused the blood in his body to blast open instead, causing his body to turn into blood-covered rag.

At the same time, the Demon's image that had just been outlined in the young man's mind with several dozens of ancient worms climbing onto the back of his image while the Money Toad and nine-tailed lizards that was already bracing themselves as though it was about to appear, were all crushed by a vague invisible force.

After that, all the bones in his body shattered. In Zhang Lisheng's mind, that turned into a meat mass slumping on the ground with only endless darkness left within, a huge lightning that sliced across the primeval state of chaos and linked the heaven and earth suddenly appeared. Then, countless fallen stars burning with raging fire crashed onto the ground in the heavy rain and set off a sky filled with dust.

Amid the blending of fire and water, it destroyed everything in the world. However, to his surprise, a giant dragon suddenly roared and soared into the sky in this apocalypse. At this moment, Zhang Lisheng's ragged body seemed as if it couldn't continue to provide nutrients to his mind to give free rein to his imagination. The peculiar images in his mind gradually stagnated and disappeared. Cracks gradually appeared on his skull and that was the only thing still intact.

Just when the young man was at the verge of death, the jelly gem tied on his wrist once again gave off a seven-colored brilliance. It extended out from his arm and soon wrapped all of his mess Then, the jelly gem transformed to become long cloth-wrap and began to squirm slowly, changing its shape at a speed undetectable to the naked eye.

Time passed by every minute; the pouring rain outside the villa had become heavier.

The thunder rumbled continuously in the mountains, setting off countless of thunder fires, which was fortunate enough that the pouring rain extinguished it in a blink of an eye.

“God bless, Lisa! I have lived in Stanford for almost 40 years, and I've never seen such terrible weather. It's simply like the end of the world!” A fat maid looked through the French casement window at the rolling black clouds charging with thunders that seemed to have pressed against the top of the trees on the mountain. Drawing a cross in front of her chest, she whispered to her companion.

“Mayron, I-it'll be fine! This is just… just a bad extreme weather. If you live at the beach, you would know that such small rain is nothing compared to hurricanes…” When the companion heard the fat maid's terrified voice, she comforted her in a whisper. However, her tone slight trembling tone could only raise an opposite effect.

Two hours slowly passed by in terror. In the villa's master bedroom, the jelly gem wrapping around Zhang Lisheng's body had not faded away to become a seven-colored string like before. Instead, it seemed to be gradually losing its elasticity and became a layer of five-color hard shell.

Peals of thunder accompanied the storm outside the window, but the room that had an excellent sound insulation effect was completely silenced. Suddenly, a sudden 'pop' broke the silence and the hard shell transformed by the jelly gem gently broke open. A head that was not intact and full of cracks appeared from the dust that floated out of the cracks.

Only its eyes, nose, and mouth were left on its head. Black holes replaced the other organs on the face. Judging from its face that was not intact, it looked similar to Zhang Lisheng, but its empty eyes and black-tarnished skin gave off a feeling that this was unlike a human being.

After protruding out of the hard shell under the gentle swaying of its neck and body that also resembled a dead log, it slowly stood up from the carpet of the villa's master bedroom under the illumination of the lightning outside the window.

Its weed-like long hair hung down on its cracked dry shoulders. He used his two eyeballs, one black while the other one was white, on its head to stare straight at the wall, that was constantly alternating between light and dark due to the lightning with an endlessly confused and desolate gaze.

The fire and rain was constantly flashing in his mind; that giant snake figure in midair skyrocketing straight up was blotting the sky; countless black-haired ancestors dressed in animal skins who stretched out as far as the eyes could see on the ground were shouting the word 'Wa'. That head remained silent for a long time, and without warning, it murmured in a flat tone, “So it's not 'Hua' but 'Wa'. It's not a dragon but snake! It's a snake! A snake's body with a human head…”

(T/N: Hua means China while Wa is an abbreviation from the word 'Nuwa'. Nuwa is a legendary goddess in China who has a snake body with a human head)

After spurting out the last seven words, the head suddenly trembled, shattering the jelly gem wrapping its body into a five-colored smog that filled the air, revealing a dry, long snake body. It was a snake body with a human head.

After revealing its body, that monster seemingly took in a gentle breath of air unconsciously.

In an instant, with just this half breath, like a clay sculpture caught in the eye of a tornado, the giant wyrmdragon, squatting on the side, transformed into a large blob of yellow smog before being swept into its mouth and nose leaving no trace behind.

After inhaling the smog transformed by the wizard gu, the monster that had a snake body with a human head shook his head, that seemed to be going to crack in the next second, gently as he spurted out eight words. “No, no! It's still early… It's still early!”

Then, its ruined skin peeled off slowly from its body by itself, transforming into shadow that disappeared into nothingness, leaving behind a standing naked Zhang Lisheng who was in a daze with his eyes staring blankly.

Unknown as to how long time had passed, the clouds and rains outside the window began to dissipate. The young man's eyes that were unmoved suddenly swirled, and his body jerked as he snapped back to reality.

His memory seemed as if it was still at that moment when he was still exhaling out his breath and when he was just about to transform the wizard gu. Shaking his head, he mumbled, “I've passed out! I must have passed out again! It took me eight trials to succeed when I transformed into a lizard last time, so I'm afraid it'd be even more difficult this time! It's a good thing that the lake outside seems to be big enough. The fish and the prawns…”

He glanced at the wyrmdragon by his side and the empty spot on the carpet cut his words off.

After being dumbstruck for a while, Zhang Lisheng panicked and tried to command the wizard gu with his mind. However, he realized that he could not sense it at all. At once, a depressing thought rose within his mind.

“Don't tell me that my wizard gu will disappear once I fail during the transformation after I make a breakthrough to the Rank-8 Wizard? T-This is too harsh! This kind of refinable dragon wizard gu must have been very rare even in the ancient times! Witchcraft is hard but t-this…” While he was speaking irritatedly, he suddenly noticed that the wizard power in his body that was rich yet introverted began to feel overwhelmed when his emotions rose; it was no longer boiling agitatedly anymore.

A thought flashed in his head without warning. The young man tried to transform into the wyrmdragon's power and at that instant, his mouth and nose protruded out, his ears turned into antlers, numerous green scales appeared on his body, and his palms dried up like an eagle.

“Dominate the water as it wields, soaring the sky as it reigns…” Feeling the ten hieroglyphic ancient characters symbolizing the transformation of the dragon's omniscient power forming in his mind, Zhang Lisheng gaped in astonishment. “I succeeded in the transformation in just one try? I didn't even receive any pain! How lucky am I!?”
