The two won were in the middle of their heated argunt when they suddenly heard a soft whooshing sound. They both turned their heads simultaneously, only to discover that Vogue had completely vanished from between them.
He had used Shadow Step to quietly slip away while they were distracted, disappearing into the darkness without a trace.
Claire’s face flushed with embarrassnt and frustration. "See! You chased him away with your aggressive behavior!" she accused, pointing at Gloria.
"No! YOU did!" Gloria shot back imdiately, her own face showing annoyance. "If you hadn’t grabbed him so possessively, he wouldn’t have felt uncomfortable!"
"My possessiveness? What about YOUR nosiness, kissing him in public like that?!" Claire’s voice went up another octave.
Their argunt continued escalating, but Vogue was already long gone, making his way through the empty streets toward his apartnt with a sense of relief at having escaped that particular situation.
Vogue finally arrived back at his small, modest room in the student housing district. He unlocked the door, stepped inside, and imdiately sat down cross-legged on his bed with purpose and focus.
He reached into his system inventory and pulled out a particular fruit that he had been saving for this exact mont. This single item had cost him almost his entire point balance from the trial—over 1.1 million points spent on this one mysterious object.
The fruit looked completely unremarkable at first glance. It resembled nothing more than a dried-up walnut, brown and wrinkled, the kind of thing you might find on the ground and ignore as worthless. But appearances could be deeply deceiving.
The item was called "Divinity Fruit," though Vogue didn’t know what specific divinity it contained or represented. The system information had been frustratingly vague. The grade asurent showed only question marks: [Grade: ???]. Even the description field had been completely blank, showing no information whatsoever about effects or usage.
The only thing the system had revealed was that this fruit possessed the capability to upgrade bloodlines. Specifically, it could enhance and evolve the Ancient Primordial Nine-Headed Dragon bloodline that Vogue currently possessed.
He had no idea what his bloodline would transform into after consuming this fruit. Would it beco stronger? Would it change fundantally? Would it unlock new abilities or enhance existing ones? The uncertainty was both exciting and slightly terrifying.
But Vogue had made his decision. This was the best possible use of his hard-earned points. Everything else in the shop—weapons, techniques, talents—could be acquired eventually through other ans. But an opportunity to fundantally upgrade a divine-tier bloodline? That was genuinely irreplaceable.
Vogue held the wrinkled fruit in his palm for a mont, examining it one final ti. Then, without further hesitation, he placed it in his mouth and began to chew.
The mont his teeth broke through the dried exterior and the fruit’s essence touched his tongue, sothing extraordinary began happening.
His entire body suddenly filled with an overwhelming surge of pure elental energy. It poured into him from the fruit like a dam breaking, flooding through every part of his being with incredible intensity. The four elents he had already awakened—Ti, Ice, Thunder, and Fire—all resonated simultaneously, their energies amplifying and interacting in complex patterns.
At the cellular level, Vogue’s body began transforming in ways that went far beyond normal evolution.
His cells, which had already been enhanced and restructured during his Ultimate Evolution, began changing even more fundantally. The cell mbranes beca perable to cosmic energy in new ways, allowing them to directly absorb and process elental laws rather than just raw energy.
The mitochondria within each cell didn’t just multiply—they completely restructured themselves, developing new organelles that had never existed in any known biology. These new structures allowed his cells to convert elental law fragnts directly into usable power.
His blood, which already carried his enhanced dragon physique properties, began to shimr with four distinct colors as it flowed through his veins. Each blood cell beca infused with elental law essence, turning his circulatory system into a conduit for divine power rather than just oxygen and nutrients.
His ridians—the channels through which cultivation energy flowed—didn’t just widen or strengthen. They completely transford from simple energy pathways into complex networks that resembled miniature cosmic formations. Each ridian beca capable of processing and refining elental laws automatically, even without conscious direction.
But the most dramatic changes were happening in his inner world, the ntal space that represented his cultivation foundation.
The thick, blood-red lake at the center of his consciousness began to expand rapidly. It spread outward in all directions, growing from a small pool into a vast sea that covered the entire base of his inner world. The crimson liquid wasn’t just blood essence anymore—it had beco sothing closer to the primordial chaos from which all creation erged.
The four massive elental trees that had been growing from the lake suddenly began trembling violently. Ti, Ice, Thunder, and Fire—all four trees shook as though caught in an earthquake.
Then, impossibly, they shattered.
The trees exploded simultaneously into countless fragnts of pure elental law. But instead of dissipating or being destroyed, these fragnts spread throughout the entire inner world, filling every corner and crevice of the space.
As the law fragnts settled and found their places, Vogue’s inner world underwent a complete geographical transformation.
One entire region suddenly erupted into eternal flas. The ground beca molten lava, the air shimred with heat distortion, and pillars of fire rose toward the sky. This was now the Fla Region, a domain of pure fire elent operating at the level of elental law rather than re energy.
Another region beca completely frozen, every surface covered in ice that was so cold it burned to touch. Massive glaciers rose from the ground, snowstorms raged constantly, and the very concept of heat seed to have been banished from this space. The Ice Region.
A third region crackled with constant thunder and lightning. Storm clouds perpetually covered the sky, bolt after bolt of electricity struck the ground in rhythmic patterns, and the air itself humd with electrical potential. The Thunder Region.
The fourth region seed to exist outside normal ti. Things aged rapidly in one spot while remaining frozen in another. Temporal distortions created areas where seconds felt like years and other areas where years passed in seconds. The Ti Region.
Vogue’s inner world was no longer a desolate gray wasteland. It had beco a vibrant cosmic space divided into four distinct elental domains, each one representing not just an elent but the fundantal laws that governed that elent.
Most significantly, the elents themselves had transcended their basic nature. They were no longer simply Ti, Ice, Thunder, and Fire as energies. They had beco the Laws of Ti, Ice, Thunder, and Fire—fundantal rules of reality itself.
At the center of the transford inner world, the golden cocoon that had been restraining Vogue’s dragon physique suddenly began cracking. Hairline fractures spread across its surface, glowing with brilliant light.
Then the cocoon shattered completely, golden fragnts dissolving into streams of pure light that dissipated into the atmosphere.
From within the destroyed cocoon, a massive spiritual projection rose toward the sky. It was the image of a four-headed dragon, each head distinct and powerful, representing the elents Vogue had already awakened.
As the projection ascended, it began growing exponentially larger. Ten ters tall beca fifty ters, then one hundred, then five hundred. The dragon’s body expanded until it was absolutely massive, easily the size of a mountain range.
The four dragon heads floated above their respective elental regions, each one positioned perfectly to oversee its domain. The colossal body stretched between them, connecting all four regions while remaining distinct.
But then sothing unexpected happened. Four enormous golden chains materialized from nowhere, each link the size of a building. These chains weren’t restraints ant to weaken—they were anchors designed to connect.
Each chain attached to one of the four dragon heads and extended downward to lock into the corresponding elental region below. The Ice Dragon head was chained to the Ice Region. The Thunder Dragon head to the Thunder Region. The Fire Dragon head to the Fire Region. The Ti Dragon head to the Ti Region.
The chains glowed with divine light, creating permanent connections between the dragon physique and the fundantal laws of each elent. This binding ensured that Vogue wouldn’t just control the elents—he would BE the elents in a very real sense.
In the physical world outside his inner transformation, Vogue’s actual body began floating upward off the bed. He rose slowly into the air until he hovered approximately two ters above the mattress, his crossed-legged position maintained.
Then, incredibly, a golden eggshell made of pure energy began forming around his floating body. The shell materialized piece by piece, connecting together to completely encase him in what looked like a massive golden egg suspended in mid-air.
The shell wasn’t just energy—it was solid, physical, and according to any test that could be perford, completely unbreakable. Nothing short of divine-level power would be able to crack it open from the outside.
Vogue was undergoing a chrysalis transformation, his body and soul being fundantally rebuilt from the ground up.
Ti passed slowly. Hours beca days.
One day passed. Then two. Then three full days elapsed with Vogue remaining suspended in his golden egg cocoon, floating motionless in his small room.
On the morning of the fourth day, the first crack finally appeared in the golden shell. A single hairline fracture spread across the surface, accompanied by a soft cracking sound.
Then more cracks appeared, spreading rapidly across the entire egg like a spiderweb of breaking glass. Light poured through the cracks, brilliant and blinding.
