Lachlan Willis anxiously waited outside the stone door, feeling as though his heart might burst with worry.
After hearing Nora cry out for help a few more times, he could only hear her groan in pain.
It seemed as if she was experiencing immense agony, to the point that she could no longer call for help!
“Nora!”
“Sweetheart, what’s happening?!”
Lachlan Willis screamed hoarsely, full of fear.
“Damned door! Break!”
Lachlan Willis cursed loudly and, seeing that the stone door wouldn’t budge, he began to attack it violently.
Boom!
With a punch, accompanied by a deafening crash, the stone door remained unscathed.
Lachlan Willis could feel a protective array on the surface of the stone door. His punch seemed to have no effect at all.
Violet Willis had once said that the protective array on this door was even stronger than the Dragon Tomb’s barrier, and no one below the tribulation stage could break it easily.
But in his desperation, Lachlan was unwilling to give up and continued pounding on the door.
He even used his power from the Northern Territory’s Porter Family.
However, the terrifying energy from his strike caused the underground of the cultivation tower to crack like a spiderweb, but the stone door still wouldn’t budge.
Outside, Violet Willis, Michael, and Reginald Wills heard the deafening sounds coming from the tower and even saw the building shake a few times. Their faces twitched.
“Hurry up!”
Reginald Wills urgently shouted.
They feared that if they didn’t get there in time, Lachlan might even destroy the entire cultivation tower!
Boom!
After Lachlan Willis struck the stone door again, Violet Willis and the others finally arrived.
“Lachlan Willis, stop! Stop right now!”
Michael shouted, his eyelids twitching.
Lachlan Willis froze at once, his eyes turning bloodshot as he urgently asked, “Ancestors, my daughter is inside, it sounds like she’s in pain. What is happening?
Do you have any way to open the chamber? Hurry!”
“If something happens to my daughter, I will never let it go!”
For Nora, Lachlan Willis was ready to turn against anyone, even Violet Willis if necessary.
If something happened to Nora, the Ancient Willis family would have to pay a heavy price, no matter who it was.
“Lachlan Willis, don’t panic! This might be a good thing, it could be a good thing!”
Michael, sensing the hostility in Lachlan’s tone, tried to calm him with a wry smile.
“A good thing? My daughter is clearly in pain, how could this be a good thing?
Tell me clearly!”
Lachlan Willis’s face darkened as he demanded an explanation.
Michael nodded and said, “Lachlan Willis, don’t get agitated, just let me explain.
Normally, the Cursebearer transmission ceremony does not cause pain. In the thousands of years of the Ancient Willis family, we’ve never had a case like Nora’s.
However, according to some ancient family records, there was a time when a member of the family undergoing the Cursebearer transmission ceremony did experience immense pain.”
“Someone else experienced this? What’s going on?
Why is this happening?”
Lachlan Willis’s emotions calmed slightly, and he immediately asked.
“Because the family member in question had a particularly pure Dudrar Dragonseal bloodline within them! So, the thought left by the Dudrar Dragonseal ancestor would automatically control their death energy, altering their body’s structure to some extent.
This process is extremely painful…”
Michael explained the situation in detail to Lachlan Willis.
The Ancient Willis family had recorded over a dozen such cases over the centuries.
As descendants of the Dudrar Dragonseal, members of the Ancient Willis family possessed a small trace of this bloodline.
There was a very low chance that the bloodline would awaken and become extremely pure, a condition called the “Candle Dragon.”
When this happened, the death energy within the individual would be much more intense than that in an ordinary member of the family.
For someone like Nora, if she didn’t undergo the Cursebearer transmission, she could face life-threatening danger before turning seven.
However, if she underwent the transmission, the thought from Dudrar Dragonseal would use her death energy to alter her body structure.
The transformation process was incredibly painful.
But once the transformation was complete, the person with the Candle Dragon bloodline would see a dramatic improvement in their physical strength and further awaken their Dudrar Dragonseal bloodline.
Their body would begin to take on “dragon-like” traits, and they might eventually develop powers and abilities unique to dragons, the mythical beasts.
“What? You mean Nora is undergoing this transformation, that’s why she’s in such pain?”
Lachlan Willis listened attentively and still couldn’t hide his doubt.
“It’s very likely! I can’t think of any other explanation!
Other than this, no one else has ever felt pain during the Cursebearer transmission.
So Lachlan Willis, your daughter might be one in a million, even one in ten million, the ‘Candle Dragon.’
Her future in cultivation will be limitless!”
Michael nodded confidently.
Reginald Wills added, “Indeed, the Ancient Willis family has documented such occurrences. Without exception, they were all due to the family member’s Dudrar Dragonseal bloodline being too pure.
Lachlan Willis, don’t act rashly!
Although your daughter is in pain now, once she endures it, she will be reborn.
As long as she cultivates the ‘Dragon Transformation Divine Decision,’ her future in cultivation will be smooth, and she could reach the peak of this world!”
“Dragon Transformation Divine Decision?”
Lachlan Willis’s expression turned serious as he asked.
Violet Willis blinked a few times, showing curiosity and a thirst for knowledge.
