Chapter 141 Training from the Beginning
"I can give you a different option, an option that opens up more possibilities for you."
Zhu Lu stared blankly at the silver-haired woman's phantom image reflected in the glass, opened her mouth, and asked with some doubt and fear, "Who are you? What do you want with me?"
"Your qualifications are only above average, which doesn't actually meet my requirements. But I'm very interested in you. Would you like to give it a try and become my priest?"
Zhu Lu didn't understand what the silver-haired woman meant. What was this "priestly ritual"? Who was she? Was she dreaming?
"Don't doubt it, you're not dreaming. I've chosen you. You can accept it or refuse. But I'll only give you one chance; once you miss it, it's gone. Human, I'm only giving you five minutes to consider. After that, it's over."
Zhu Lu listened to the woman's words, her mind filled with doubt, completely confused. But her intuition told her that the opportunity before her was extremely important.
She'll definitely regret missing this opportunity...
But who exactly is she? Can I really make such a hasty decision?
As if sensing Zhu Lu's hesitation, the silver-haired woman's phantom gradually blurred, and a silver-white rhombus-shaped crystal the size of a soybean emerged from it.
A soft, silvery light fell upon Zhu Lu, seemingly dispelling some of her current sorrow.
"Try it, and then tell me your answer."
Zhu Lu subconsciously raised her lotus-root arm, and with her slender hand, she extended a delicate, white finger and gently touched the silver-white rhombus-shaped crystal in the glass mirror.
The next moment, the silvery-white light seemed to brighten slightly, spreading out in wisps like ripples on water, and the rhombus-shaped crystal gradually became transparent.
At the same moment, on Zhu Lu's right hand, a silver-white moon emblem flickered twice before dimming.
Zhu Lu raised her right hand in confusion, bringing it closer to her face, and looked it over from side to side, but nothing seemed to have changed...
Just then, Zhu Lu suddenly felt that the gentle silvery-white light from before was now spreading throughout her body along the meridians of her right hand!
In the blink of an eye, a faint silvery-white glow appeared in all of Zhu Lu's meridians, blood, and bone marrow.
Then, an inexplicable, excruciating pain suddenly erupted from every part of her body at the same time!
On her right hand, the Moon Emblem and her Martial Soul Imprint, the Netherworld Cat, reappeared together—a seal and imprint of two colors, silver and black, instantly resembling two demons devouring each other, vying for power.
They started tearing at each other!
In an instant, silver and black intertwined, mixed, invaded, and merged like blank spaces and splashes of ink on a traditional Chinese ink painting!
But the excruciating pain brought about by this drastic change was something Zhu Lu had never experienced before.
It was as if countless insects were gnawing at every inch of her skin, veins, flesh, internal organs, and bones, and as if new blood was constantly nourishing her body to restore it to its original state.
Zhu Lu clenched her teeth, tears streaming uncontrollably from her eyes!
If she hadn't clearly felt that her martial soul was undergoing a complete transformation and her bloodline was undergoing a metamorphosis, Zhu Lu would never have been able to endure such pain.
Time passed second by second, and the excruciating pain had already caused Zhu Lu to burst into tears and scream. She only had a little bit of consciousness left, telling herself that she must hold on to the end!
Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena had already transferred her to the alternate dimension she had created; otherwise, Zhu Lu's ferocious roar would have already attracted the Shrek Academy's powerful warriors.
Gu Yuena had been observing Zhu Lu at Shrek Academy for some time. Initially, she had no intention of choosing this young girl.
There are actually quite a few people who are more talented than Zhu Lu and whose attributes are more compatible with Gu Yuena...
But after witnessing Dai Huabin and Dai Yueheng's actions, Gu Yuena suddenly realized something: Zhu Lu, this young girl, seemed to have no powerful backers, her identity was impeccable, her personality was resilient, and she was incredibly diligent in her cultivation.
This is perfect for her to start training from scratch!
If it were someone older, closely related to Shrek Academy, or someone with an entire family to rely on, Gu Yuena would feel a headache just thinking about it!
It's unrealistic for her to directly eliminate the forces behind these people; if she doesn't, these individuals will never truly obey her. Even if she does wipe them all out, there's a risk of backlash if they find out she was responsible...
Adding to the previous incident where Gu Yuena attempted to force a relationship by controlling Huo Yuhao, only to end up losing both her money and her reputation, serving as a cautionary tale for her working for others...
It's true that you need to find someone who has no one to rely on and train them from scratch!
That's why Gu Yuena looked around the entire Shrek Academy and then took a trip to the Heavenly Soul Empire before finally choosing Zhu Lu.
She gave Zhu Lu the resources to become powerful, she gave Zhu Lu another possibility, and she believed that she could definitely cultivate a capable assistant this time!
The entire ritual, from Zhu Lu's initial fusion with the power of the moon to the transformation of her martial soul and bloodline, is now drawing to a close.
All the impurities in her body were expelled during the process, and bloodstains covered her entire body, making her original school uniform completely unrecognizable.
Once the entire ceremony was completely over, Gu Yuena casually tossed a water ball over and stuffed Zhu Lu inside.
Then she stretched out a slender finger and casually drew a few circles in the air. The water ball then began to spin rapidly, washing away the dirt clinging to Zhu Lu's body.
Gu Yuena took out Zhu Lu's spare clothes from her soul tool, and with a gentle flick of her jade fingers, a flash of silver light appeared, and the spare clothes were put on Zhu Lu's body.
After the cleanup was completed, Gu Yuena waved her hand, tearing open a spatial rift, and Zhu Lu was thrown back onto her bed in her dormitory...
Just as Gu Yuena finished her business and was preparing to return to the Lake of Life, she suddenly felt an urgent response from the due west direction!
That is...
Gu Yuena's face immediately darkened. It was a cry for help from the auspicious beast through her reverse scale!
Almost instantly, the Silver Dragon King, the ruler of all soul beasts, tore open a spatial rift. One of his hands revealed silver-white dragon scales and claws, and without the slightest hesitation, he pierced through the spatial rift with a clean and decisive thrust!
"Huh? What happened? This guy actually got away?" Gu Yuena passed through the spatial rift in shock, but couldn't catch a glimpse of the one who dared to covet Qiu'er.
