Did Neela have clothes?
Neela looked down at virtual-novel.net body. She showed no emotion in virtual-novel.net eyes and face.
‘Shame?’
‘Sorry! That’s impossible!’ virtual-novel.net thought.
The human form was not how Benares Dragons looked like in their final form. Moreover, with the way the dragon tribe looked at this matter, natural beauty trumped all else. Being exposed was the nature of the dragons. Besides, Alex Rockefeller and the Benares Dragons were linked together by fate. Never mind being naked for Alex, Neela would be willing to cut out virtual-novel.net flesh for virtual-novel.net to feast on if that were what virtual-novel.net wanted.
“No!” Neela yelled while shaking virtual-novel.net head. She reached for one of the steel chains and pulled it out forcefully.
“Why did you put these chains on?” Alex asked.
“These are for sealing my body up. Even as one of the Benares Dragons, I can’t sustain myself after staying in Soul Refining Tower for so long. Besides, I had to spend three thousand years in this place! The only way I can thoroughly enter the sealed state is with these seven fairy chains,” Neela explained.
While speaking, Neela pulled out all seven of the chains from virtual-novel.net body. A pool of golden blood had also accumulated on the ground. Neela gently lifted virtual-novel.net hand and gathered all the blood on the ground. The blood dangled in front of virtual-novel.net like a giant ball, and Neela slowly delivered it over to Alex. “My lord, from my observation of your aura, your current level of cultivation still isn’t very high. This pool of blood contains my natal blood essence. Also, I have been storing energy from the Soul Refining Tower for the past three thousand years. If you eat it, it’ll benefit you greatly. Meanwhile, we can also form a life contract. From then on, I’ll be your maid and always accompany you,” virtual-novel.net said.
“Huh?” Alex sounded a little jittery.
Mainly, it was because virtual-novel.net still didn’t trust Neela’s identity completely. Could this life contract come with some hidden conditions?
However, Neela waved virtual-novel.net hand, and the ball of golden liquid directly entered Alex’s mouth. He couldn’t even fight back In fact, before virtual-novel.net could react, the blood passed through his throat. After that, it even seeped into the rest of his body.
“You… Why did you….” Alex was shocked. He wanted to force the blood out of his body.
However, it was too late. The golden dragon blood didn’t go through his digestive system after entering his body. Instead, it entered his blood circulation directly through his veins and fused with his own blood. In an instant, Alex sensed the immense energy of the golden blood. After vibrating gently, his golden core that had been strengthened by the twelve runes of the ancient forbidden spell naturally absorbed the energy from the dragon blood.
Buzz… The energy vibrated.
Alex immediately felt as if his blood was coming to a boil. After that, it was almost as though virtual-novel.net possessed an endless amount of energy. His physical body was going through reincarnation of sorts that virtual-novel.net had never experienced before.
‘Dragon blood!’ Alex thought.
His body too suddenly had the attribute of dragon blood.
Alex could sense that his capabilities had been enhanced greatly after fusing with the dragon blood. Logically speaking, virtual-novel.net should have induced a lightning tribulation and ascended to Nascent Soul rank after his golden core made a breakthrough.
‘Oh, I get it! It must be because of Soul Refining Tower. I need to leave Soul Refining Tower to induce Nascent Soul’s lightning tribulation!’ Just as Alex thought about this, virtual-novel.net felt a new sensation.
‘Life contract.’
A brand appeared near his heart.
This was a soul imprint that existed in Neela’s blood essence. Alex could even detect Neela’s location, status, and what virtual-novel.net was doing and thinking through this brand. The two seemed to be connected on the spiritual level.
However, this seemed to work in a single direction. Alex could sense Neela through the brand, but virtual-novel.net couldn’t do the same unless Alex took the initiative to connect with virtual-novel.net using the brand.
“My lord, do you have any other questions?” Neela looked at Alex and asked.
“Oh… Nothing else,” Alex said.
Previously, Alex was worried that Neela might secretly try to harm him. But now that the life contract had been established, Alex understood the more profound meaning within.
Naturally, virtual-novel.net didn’t have any issues with it. However, something did come to his mind.
He was here to pass the Soul Refining Tower’s challenge.
