"My name is Wan Yin, and more than ten years ago, I was picked up by my master in the 'Great Annihilation War Pit'. ”

······

"Little Hidden Son!"

A teenager shouted all the way, his chubby little face bumped and red, and shouted at the bushes.

"Here's it!"

A small immature face quickly poked out of the bushes, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he waved the axe in his hand to signal in this direction.

The boy was about eleven or twelve years old, a few drops of sweat dripped down his cheeks on his delicate little face, his black hair was messily spread behind him, and his big smart eyes revealed a trace of tiredness, which should not have appeared at such an age.

"Wan Yin, senior brothers and sisters, I will come to take a bath at sunset, and I will tell you to boil the bathing water quickly. ”

The little fat man panted and pouted, his face flushed, and he spit out what he wanted to say in one breath, as if he was afraid that he would be severely punished if he said it late.

When the young man named Wan Yin heard this, he turned around and got into the bushes again, speeding up the chopping of firewood on the ground, and a few more blood-red cuts suddenly appeared on his anxious little hands.

The immature little face and calloused hands are so incongruous no matter how they look, only people who work all year round will have such a look on their hands.

At sunset.

Outside the two-seater wooden house, a group of teenagers were blowing torches and adding firewood.

"Burn it well, maybe this time the senior brothers and sisters will give the lower grade shadow stones with more energy left. ”

"Last year, Senior Brother Tongyan was able to break through the Ten Layers of Shadow Gathering and reach the First Realm because of the low-grade shadow stone with a lot of energy! Now I heard that he is already the most dazzling figure among the new disciples of the inner gate. ”

"To be honest, since Elder Tong picked up Wan Yin's broom star, his own dark disease has not been cured, but has caused his own strength to decline, and his body is not as good as day by day, and he has passed away a few years ago. ”

"There are still two months left for the selection of inner disciples, and if the strength reaches the fifth level of the shadow, you can be qualified, and now I am only the third stage of the shadow, it seems that there is no hope for this year"

"Hehe, I broke through to the Shadow Quadruple yesterday. ”

Suddenly, in the narrow small firewood room, there were bursts of envy.

The young man worked hard to add firewood to the fire, as if he couldn't hear the ridicule next to him at all, and he had been used to being ridiculed over the years.

Elder Tong is the master of the young Wan Yin, he is said to be like a teacher, and he is indeed like his father, for more than ten years, whenever the cultivation resources issued by the sect, Elder Tong will take out most of the lower grade shadow stones for Wan Yin to cultivate, but since he was young, no matter how hard Wan Yin worked and how hard he worked, he was never able to store the energy in the shadow stone in his body.

Seeing that the master's body was getting worse day by day, Wan Yin's wish since childhood was to cure the dark disease of the master's body, because he knew that the master was seriously injured in order to save him, which led to his later death.

"If my cultivation can be strengthened, I can find heavenly treasures for my master to cure the dark diseases of his body, and my master will not die!"

The calloused little hands held the wood tightly until the joints turned blue, and after a while, he released the wood and slowly sent it into the fire, and his face returned to his previous calmness.

Night slowly fell, and the inner disciples of the two bathhouses slowly walked out one after another, and occasionally, one or two low-grade shadow stones that had been consumed so much energy flew out, provoking this group of fire-burning teenagers to scramble.

"The water temperature is just right, this low-grade shadow stone and body fluid, I'll give it to you. ”

Like the soft chirping of a lark, a figure like a clear lotus slowly walked out, and with a flick of the jade hand, a low-grade shadow stone with more energy and a bottle of colored turtledove fell next to Wan Yin.

"Senior Sister Chunyi rewarded you, don't thank you quickly. ”

Outside the other bathhouse, a man in white followed closely behind the woman named Chunyi and smiled, his eyes did not hide his admiration for the woman.

A gust of incense blew by, and the woman walked straight in the direction of the sect, not even stopping her gaze on the young man.

Outside the sect.

In a wooden house on the hillside, the young man sat cross-legged, holding a low-grade shadow stone with quite abundant energy in his hand, and his hands formed a cultivation seal, and a trace of faint and almost negligible energy poured into his body along the young man's breath, and a faint light swirled around the young man's mouth and nose, and was finally sucked into his body.

On her immature face, fine beads of sweat were covered with fine beads, and her lips trembled slightly, as if she was in great pain.

After a trace of energy entered the body, a strange energy followed, this is not the first time that the teenager has perceived, whenever the energy absorbed by cultivation enters the body, an inexplicable energy instantly invades, as if water and fire are incompatible, the energy of heaven and earth enters, and the strange energy swallows and dissolves.

It was as if a juvenile's body was on the battlefield, starting a tug-of-war, and as a "battlefield" teenager, he suffered this great pain every time, and sometimes even fainted directly during his cultivation.

The pain of cultivation that is not fatal will follow every time he cultivates, and for more than ten years, the teenager has become numb to such pain and torture, but at the same time, the pain has strengthened his cultivation heart!

The more painful it is, the more it strengthens the young man's cultivation heart, and the waste ridicule along the way, the master because he suffers from a dark disease, the sect is declining more and more, and for various reasons, the young man does not know how many nights he fainted in severe pain, and when he woke up in the morning, he patted his chest again, telling himself that he could not give up, and he would definitely be able to succeed in cultivation today.

If it weren't for himself, the master would not have stagnated in his cultivation, and if it weren't for himself, the monthly offerings issued by the sect would not have allowed the master to heal from his secret illness, at least he would not have regressed in his cultivation, causing the master who was originally in the position of an elder to be sent to the outer gate, and he was ridiculed by his peers, and finally died of depression.

Despite this, the master did not want to give up the idea of Wan Ying, Wan Yin wanted to shirk the cultivation resources, and the white-haired old man always looked at Wan Yin kindly and said, "Child, although you cultivate, the master's body is not in the way."

The young man is determined to make himself strong, no matter how painful his cultivation is, even if he searches for the world's treasure medicine, he will definitely cure this kind old man's dark disease, however, the world is always unsatisfactory, in this world, only with strong strength can he be qualified to protect the person he wants to protect!

Whenever the boy woke up to find that there was still no energy stored in his body, he knew that this painful tug-of-war had ended in the victory of inexplicably strange energy.

At the same time, a dark stone object, about the size of an egg, flickered slightly beside the young man, emitting a faint light, and then returned to its original appearance.

When the last trace of energy was absorbed into his body, the lower grade shadow stone in the young man's hand immediately dimmed, becoming no different from ordinary stones.

The reason why the shadow stone is precious is because when the energy that is free between heaven and earth is rich to a certain extent, it will condense into a solid state, and a large amount of solid energy can form a shadow stone vein, and when the energy is absorbed, it becomes no different from ordinary stones.

"Hoo ······"

After his eyes slowly opened, and after reaching out to wipe away the sweat on his face, his little face suddenly smiled bitterly: "It's gone again, the energy that I worked hard to cultivate all night has disappeared again." ”

The boy is naturally Wanyin.

Since he was a child, no matter how Wan Yin cultivated, he couldn't store the energy between heaven and earth in his body, whether it was absorbing the energy between heaven and earth, or the lower grade shadow stones given by the master every month, he could absorb it, but after absorption, the energy was always devoured by inexplicable weird energy, and the energy that had been absorbed was gone when he opened his eyes the next day.

As a result, the name of Wan Yin Waste is already well-known among the disciples of the outer sect of the sect, and if ordinary people get the inferior shadow stone given by Master Wan Yin, even if they have poor qualifications, they will be able to step into the shadow cultivation ranks.

Only Wan Yin, a special existence, no matter how much it is absorbed, will not be able to step into the shadow gathering.

The so-called shadow cultivation is to absorb the energy that is free from heaven and earth and turn it into one's own use, and gathering the shadow ten times is the first stop to step into the ranks of shadow cultivation.

The first four layers of the gathering are just to gradually strengthen the physical fitness, so that the body can withstand more energy into the storage.

After reaching the fivefold shadow gathering, within the body, the energy between heaven and earth will be used by itself, and it will be turned into shadow power, and shadow power is the source of all power.

Only by breaking through the ten layers of the shadow and reaching the realm of one spirit can he officially step into the cultivation world, cultivate to a powerful person, and with a wave of his hand, the sky and the earth will collapse, and the great power of burning the mountains and boiling the sea, of course, Wan Yin has not even reached the first level of the shadow, for him, it is just an existence in myths and legends.

"There are still two months to go, and it will be time for the inner disciple selection, and if you can pass the selection, you will get better cultivation resources. ”。

Since the death of Elder Tong, the resources given by the sect to this have gradually decreased, the weak eat the strong, in this world, strength is everything, strong strength, you can get better cultivation resources, on the contrary, if your strength is low, then you can only let others trample on it, within the sect, do not raise waste people!

When the thought flashed by, Wan Yin quickly shook his head, he was a person who didn't even enter the first layer of the shadow, how could he talk about passing the selection of inner disciples, not to mention that there were still two months to come, and he didn't go from the first to the fifth level of the shadow in two months, which was tantamount to a fool's dream!

When Wan Ying shook his head and laughed bitterly, the dark stone beside him suddenly flashed slightly, and the light flashed, and Wan Yin, who had been sensitive since childhood, clearly felt that this strange stone that he had carried on his body since he was a child did flicker.

Stretching out his hand, he picked up the dark stone, and looked at it carefully, and found that there was no light.

"Is it a delusion? It must be, the stagnation of cultivation for so many years has led to hallucinations." The little hand rubbed his forehead lightly, and after observing it for a while, he finally let go of his strange thoughts.

When Wan Yin was about to go out to wash, a voice that was so light that it seemed not to belong to ordinary dust sounded behind him.

"The body that has been impregnated is already a great luck to survive, and you still want to cultivate?"
