"Uarghhh—!"
As the Fire Dragon God's fiery power flooded Vaan's body, rushing through every channel in his system, Vaan raised his head to the skies and let out a mighty roar.
In that instant, the sound wave from Vaan shook the air and made the sand tremble with ripples like a splash in calm water.
It contained deafening volume akin to a dragon roar, something that shouldn't have come out of a human's mouth.
Ding!<Warning: Your body is breaking down due to an influx of overbearing power>
<It is recommended to delegate a portion of the power to the Heaven-Swallowing Space to alleviate the problem>
'No! An overbearing force is needed to reforge the body effectively!' Vaan refused the system's advice.
His situation has not yet reached such a critical point.
Vaan forcefully endured the raging power of the Fire Dragon God's blood essence as it rampaged through his body.
His veins and meridians lit up with glowing red light, becoming visible under his skin.
Eventually, the light intensified to the point that his body appeared seemingly hollow, containing nothing light underneath.Naturally, the pain that followed was extreme as various degrees of burns occurred throughout his body.
But while the Fire Dragon God's blood essence wrecked Vaan's body, his regenerative ability also operated at maximum capacity to repair the damages, slowing down the breakdown.
Nevertheless, Vaan sensed that his body was breaking down faster than it could absorb the power of the Fire Dragon God's blood essence.
As such, he increased his heart rate and entered Lycan form, boosting his natural regenerative abilities by a notch.
At the same time, he took out a few magical herbs with healing properties and consumed them raw. He also received healing from his second spirit, the Wood Spirit, Emerald.
As a result, the increased healing negated the breakdown, allowing the power of the Fire Dragon God's blood essence to be assimilated into the body smoothly.
Nevertheless, the process wasn't completely free of consequences.
The Immortal Lycan Bloodline and the Fire Dragon God Bloodline began to mix and clash, altering the form of his Lycan state.
Ding!
<Your Immortal Lycan Bloodline and Fire Dragon God Bloodline have started to clash>
<Your Lycan Transformation is getting affected>
In addition to his long white hair, which had grown out during the start of his Lycan Transformation, two horns protruded backward from the side of his head.
Several strips of his long hair also turned glowing red as if they had been charged with fire-attribute mana.
At the same time, his flesh cackled like roasted pork belly before blackening, forming hard scales in places his silvery-white fur didn't grow and clashed in areas that did.
Nevertheless, the two bloodlines didn't completely oppose each other.
Ding!
<Your Immortal Lycan Bloodline and Fire Dragon God Bloodline have begun to merge>
<Your physique is consolidating>
<Your scales are being strengthened>
<Your claws are being reinforced>
<Your eyesight is improving>
<Your physical attributes are being adjusted>
<A new bloodline is being created>
…
Ding!
<A variation of the Wolgan Lupus Draconis Bloodline, the Celestial Dragonwolf Bloodline (Incomplete), has been created>
<The Celestial Dragonwolf Bloodline (Incomplete) has been created>
<The Celestial Dragonwolf Physique (Incomplete) has been formed>
<Due to an incomplete fusion of the two divine-rank bloodlines, some abilities have been altered and changed>
<You are currently unable to reverse the transformation state>
…
Ding!
<Lycan Transformation has been changed to Celestial Dragonwolf Transformation>
<Blessings of the Moon has been changed to Blessings of the Sun and Moon>
…

After the effects of the Fire Dragon God's blood essence subsided, Vaan sighed with relief before checking his status.
Although there were several issues and losses, the result was still better than he had hoped.
At the very least, the improvement and abilities he gained significantly increased—or rather, it guaranteed his chance of passing the fourth stage.
Vaan no longer felt pressured by the heat. Thus, he quickly resumed his advance and passed the wall of flames with little time.
It didn't require much effort, which was completely different from his prior attempt.
However, he didn't have the luxury of celebrating his achievement as there were pressing issues he had to resolve quickly.
He needed to fix the incomplete fusion in order to end the Celestial Dragonwolf Transformation. Otherwise, his life might be in danger.
