"No... no! This isn't my Luo San Pao! It isn't!"
Letting out a shrill scream, Yu Xiaogang staggered backward and finally fell to the ground. He pointed at the black monster before him, his face filled with fear and despair.
"Heh heh, Yu Xiaogang, I never thought you'd have a day when you were afraid?" Looking at the Spirit Grandmaster who was slumped on the ground, Bibi Dong let out a cold sneer.
Seeing her attitude, Yu Xiaogang's fear was replaced by anger. He raised his trembling hand, pointed at her, and angrily said, "Bibi Dong! What exactly did you do to my Luo San Pao?!"
Bibi Dong elegantly crossed her legs and said with indifference, "What did I do? Yu Xiaogang, you need to understand that if I hadn't picked you up, you would have been eaten by wild dogs long ago. You should be thanking me".
"You're talking nonsense!" Yu Xiaogang trembled with rage. He pointed at the growling, drooling black monster and shrieked, "Thank you? How could my Luo San Pao turn into this? My Spirit is the magnificent Golden Sacred Dragon! It's a top-tier Spirit meant to evolve into a sacred dragon! How could it possibly become something so evil and sinister?!"
"Golden Sacred Dragon?" Bibi Dong sounded as if she had heard a giant joke. A mockery curled on her lips as she said, "That faint Golden Sacred Dragon bloodline within you already failed its mutation, and now it has been drained! Not a single drop is left!"
Her words hit Yu Xiaogang's heart like a heavy hammer. It reminded him of the pain and the empty feeling he had when his power was stripped away in the Sunset Forest.
"Now, although your Spirit looks a bit ugly," Bibi Dong continued as her gaze swept over the hideous Luo San Pao, "at least it's no longer that level twenty-nine trash. It should be able to cultivate now".
A flicker of disbelief flashed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes, but her next words made him feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"However, its method of training is quite special. It needs to drink blood. Spirit beast blood is fine, but human blood also works. The life energy and spirit power in fresh blood will be its best nourishment. The stronger and purer the blood, the better the effect".
"What!?" Yu Xiaogang's face turned pale, and he gasped for breath like an ox.
Seeing his ashen face, Bibi Dong finally seemed satisfied. She slowly stood up, looking down at him, and continued, "Did you think your injuries could be healed by ordinary Spirit Abilities? Your heart was shattered and your bloodline was drained; you were going to die. It was I who brought you into the Secret Realm and used the Rakshasa God's power to save your dying Spirit".
"The Rakshasa God uses the evil thoughts of the world. Her power is great at changing things. Your Spirit was sacred but flawed. Under the Rakshasa power, it threw away its useless shell and revealed its true, evil nature. It is now made for growth through killing and devouring!"
"The Rakshasa God's power saved your Spirit and allowed it to be reborn in this form. It is now an evil beast, no longer your sacred dragon. Yu Xiaogang, this is the price for living and the only way for you to gain power".
Yu Xiaogang suddenly raised his head and shrieked, "No! Bibi Dong! You can't do this! Give me back my Luo San Pao! Give me back my original Spirit!! If my Spirit looks like this monster, how will I ever return to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? I planned to return to my family after becoming a success!"
Driven by emotion, he forgot his fear and jumped up like a madman to attack Bibi Dong. However, she didn't even frown. She lifted her eyelids slightly, and a cold gleam flashed in her eyes.
Suddenly, a terrifying pressure descended. it directly trapped Yu Xiaogang in mid-air! He stayed in a ridiculous pouncing posture. Apart from his eyes, he could not move a single finger.
Amidst this pressure, his mind suddenly recalled his purpose for coming to Spirit City: to find a cultivation method for Tang San's twin spirits and for his own Spirit theory! This obsession even overshadowed his fear of his Spirit's change.
Forcibly suppressing his anger, Yu Xiaogang used all his strength to speak through gritted teeth, "Supreme Pontiff, I came to you with a request. I hope you can help me just once".
Bibi Dong showed a hint of genuine surprise. She waved her hand, removing part of the pressure. Yu Xiaogang fell to the ground in a sorry state, but he was still locked by the remaining pressure.
A sneer played on her lips as she watched him. "Oh? Asking for my help? This doesn't seem like you, Yu Xiaogang. Why? What could make you beg me?"
Yu Xiaogang did not explain the true reason. He struggled to lift his head, his gaze fixed on her, and asked the question that had troubled him for a long time.
"Supreme Pontiff, I want to know how you overcame the challenge of twin spirits. How did you solve the energy impact and backlash when adding spirit rings to the second Spirit?"
Hearing the words "twin spirits," the playfulness on Bibi Dong's face vanished, replaced by coldness. She walked toward him and looked down like she was looking at an ant. "Yu Xiaogang! Why should I tell you?"
Yu Xiaogang hastily explained, "Dong'er, I have a disciple named Tang San who has trained with me for ten years! He is lucky like you and has twin spirits! I want to train him into a powerful expert to prove that my Spirit theory is correct!"
"Your Spirit theory?" Bibi Dong sounded as if she had heard a ridiculous joke. "Yu Xiaogang, how many of your theories did you steal from Spirit Hall's archives by getting close to me back then? Don't you know the truth in your own heart? Taking things from me and trying to prove yourself is a huge irony!"
Before he could answer, her gaze sharpened. "Moreover, don't think I don't know! That Tang San is Tang Hao's son! That father and son are enemies of Spirit Hall! You want me to tell you the secret of twin spirits so you can train the son of an enemy? Do you think I am a fool?!"
