Inside the underground altar chamber of the Golden Heir Palace, Golden Heir Gu Wuji convulsed on the black marble floor as a ten-front civil war erupted inside his own bloodstream!
In his left arm, the stolen Star-Roc Bloodline—ripped five years ago from a thirteen-year-old girl in Branch System #7—flapped its phantom wings backward, twisting his elbow joint with a sickening CRACK!
In his right leg, the stolen Earth-Bear & Thunder-Ape Bloodlines—plundered from Branch Systems #14 and #22—roared in righteous vengeance at the call of Gu Nian’s reflected 10x True-Founder Authority. This locked his knee cap in a vise grip!
And inside his chest, the stolen Flame-Emperor Bloodline and Frost-Wolf Bloodline stopped circulating his Rank 9 qi and instead began violently headbutting each other across his sternum. Turning his internal organs into a battlefield of alternating frostbite and third-degree burns!
“S-System! Suppress them! Spend another ten thousand Destiny Points to chain these ten branch bloodlines back down!”
Golden Heir Gu Wuji shrieked, coughing up a mouthful of half-frozen, half-boiling blood as he tried to push himself up off the floor with his trembling hands.
Inside his head, the [Destiny-Plundering System] sparked and smoked like an overloaded fuse box:
*[CRITICAL SYSTEM FAILURE! THE REFLECTED 10X CURSE CARRIES STAGE-6 TRUE-FOUNDER CARPENTER AUTHORITY + 1,200 GOLD-STAR KARMIC SEALS! THE ANCIENT BLOODLINE ALTAR HAS RECOGNIZED TARGET ‘GU NIAN’
