Chapter 2: The Mystery of Life (I)
Lin Xiao carefully observed this egg, glowing with a faint light, a trace of spiritual power was slowly absorbed by this egg, and every time it was absorbed, the light became a little brighter.
"It turns out that I can't store spiritual power because of this egg!" Lin Xiao finally found the culprit of the force, and he hated to cut this egg with a thousand knives.
"Master, can you see me?" Suddenly, a voice came from the egg, with a hint of surprise in his tone,
"What is it? The egg can speak?" Lin Xiao was startled, almost frightened to the point that his consciousness was scattered, "What the hell are you doing, why are you in my sea of qi, saying! I can't cultivate, is it you who hurt me!" You say!" Not only is this egg a loss or some other reason, this egg has no other response except that the light is brighter than before, as if he has never spoken, just when Lin Xiao wondered if he was having auditory hallucinations, the voice came out again.
Lin Xiao asked a lot of questions at once, as if he wanted to ask all the doubts in the past few years. But when he heard the answer next, the angry Lin Xiao almost glared at him.
"I thought the master was deliberately nourishing me with spiritual power. β
After hearing this, Lin Xiao rolled his eyes, if his divine sense could bite people, this egg would probably be chewed into slag.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, it took Lin Xiao a long time to hold back three words from between his teeth, "Zi your sister!" But it's useless to be angry, now that he knows the reason why he can't cultivate, Lin Xiao just wants to solve this problem, and then cultivate like a normal person, Lin Xiao firmly believes that with his own efforts, he will definitely impress others, and he will no longer be ridiculed in the future.
"Master, I know what you're thinking, I didn't expect me to let my master suffer ridicule and contempt for so long, don't worry, I couldn't communicate with the master before, it was because I had not recovered before, so I absorbed the master's spiritual power to restore myself, and now I can barely establish communication with you, I will compensate you in the future, and I will make your cultivation twice as effective with half the effort." Or even ten times a hundred. β
Before Lin Xiao could speak, this egg answered all the questions he wanted to ask, but Lin Xiao didn't dare to believe it completely.
"Let me speed up my cultivation, could it be that this egg is to absorb more? What is this egg, calling me master, is it just to please me?" Lin Xiao muttered in his heart, not knowing whether he should believe it.
"Master, I'm not here to please you, in fact, I am Ling Zun's spirit bead, after the great war a long time ago, Ling Zun melted me into your sea of qi, one is to protect me, and the second is to let me protect you. β
"Do you know my father?Where is my father?Is he a good guy or a bad guy?" Hearing that Lingzhu knew about his father, Lin Xiao hurriedly asked, about his father's questions, the patriarch and the elders were secretive, even the old housekeeper who was closest to him always changed the topic.
After half a ring, Lingzhu's voice reappeared, "I can't remember it, it's just that that the big battle consumed almost all the power, and my current memory is sealed by many seals, only if you become stronger, can you break the seal." But in these seals, I feel the breath of Ling Zun, maybe it was Ling Zun who sealed me, master, I am forcibly communicating with you this time, I will fall into a deep sleep in a while, I hope you can wake me up again soon. β
The voice fell, Lin Xiao opened his eyes in an instant, and looked around blankly, everything was like a dream, he was already soaked in sweat, and he took a few deep breaths before he slowly regained his ability to think, Lin Xiao didn't know whether what appeared just now was real or hallucination, for some reason, it always felt so real.
After a while, Lin Xiao suddenly patted his head, "I'm really too stupid, didn't the spirit bead just now say that it won't absorb my spiritual power anymore?" Thinking of this, Lin Xiao didn't talk nonsense, and immediately began to meditate and began to cultivate, still a familiar feeling, perceiving the surrounding spiritual power and absorbing it into the body, but unlike before, the sea of qi had an obvious feeling, and the spiritual power did not dissipate, Lin Xiao was overjoyed in his heart, and felt that his life was full of light again. In the cave, the lonely teenager, the lonely meditating, let the wind and rain outside the cave increase, the teenager in the cave was unmoved.
I don't know how long it took, Lin Xiao exhaled a deep breath of turbidity, Shen made a big lazy waist, his whole body made a crackling sound, he felt his breath, a cultivation actually made the spiritual power directly reach the realm of the 4th layer, Lin Xiao sighed excitedly, "Finally, you can cultivate." β
Although Lin Xiao didn't know how long he had been in the cave, his intuition told him that it was definitely not a day, Lin Xiao was worried about his family, so he hurried to the clan, running all the way, but still maintaining the stability of his breath, making Lin Xiao more and more surprised by the benefits of spiritual power, but his stomach screamed uncontrollably, Lin Xiao had to have a full meal in the bun shop, and then continued to rush to the family.
Unconsciously arrived at the family gate, the guards at the door did not look down on Lin Xiao, after seeing Lin Xiao, he saluted and said, "Where has the young master been in the past three days, the old housekeeper is crazy looking for you." β
Lin Xiao was also stunned, but he didn't say anything, he replied "Thank you", hugged his fists and entered the clan, and several guards whispered after seeing Lin Xiao walking away. "Eh, why do I think the little master is a little different. "yes, it always feels weird. "What a good child, he is also very polite to us, but he can't cultivate, it's a pity. β
Lin Xiao naturally couldn't hear this, just wanted to return to his room as soon as possible, and he was also ready to be reprimanded by the old housekeeper, although the old housekeeper was just a housekeeper, he was the only person in this family who was good to Lin Xiao, it can be said that it was all Lin Xiao's relatives, no matter how much cynicism he received, when the whole world thought he was a waste, only the old housekeeper would never abandon him, and many people in the clan said that the two of them were sympathetic to each other, because the old housekeeper was also a person without spiritual power, but the difference was that the old housekeeper used to be a strong man, but in a battle, in order to save Lin Xiao's father, the sea of qi was shattered, and he couldn't cultivate from then onγ
Quickly ran back to his yard, and suddenly felt that this yard was a little different from before, and there was a hint of danger, at this time, the old housekeeper ran out of the house and grabbed Lin Xiao's arm, "Where have you been?
"I was in a bad mood and ran to the back mountain to be quiet. Although the cave in the back mountain was Lin Xiao's secret, Lin Xiao didn't want to lie to the old housekeeper, so he said it truthfully.
"Did you go to the cave? Why did you go for three days?" the old housekeeper asked strangely, when the old housekeeper asked the right sentence, Lin Xiao suddenly felt that something was wrong, he only said that he went to the back mountain, and did not mention the cave, and was feeling strange, the old housekeeper asked again: "Have you encountered anything strange in the past three days?"
At this time, when the old housekeeper asked, Lin Xiao felt that the old housekeeper's tone had a little more expectation, and Lin Xiao didn't have time to think about it, because he really wanted to share with the old housekeeper what he could cultivate, and then stretched out his hand and gathered the spiritual power in the palm of his hand, and his palm emitted a faint light.
"The spiritual power is at the first level, you can cultivate? How do you do it?" The old housekeeper asked several questions in a row excitedly, his eyes were full of excitement, Lin Xiao looked at the old housekeeper who was so out of shape, and his heart was also warm, sure enough, only the old housekeeper was looking forward to his own well, Lin Xiao did not answer the old housekeeper's question, but withdrew his spiritual power, looked around, and whispered: "Do you know, there is something in my sea of qi... Ah!! "I just wanted to say that there was an egg in the sea of qi, and suddenly a force rushed directly to my sea of knowledge, and my brain buzzed, and I spun around in an instant, and I fainted, but before I fainted, I seemed to see the old butler suddenly turn back and make a palm, and the action was so fast that it made people stunned.
I don't know how long it has been, Lin Xiao opened his eyes, calmed down, and recalled his thoughts before he fell into a coma.
"Are you awake?" It turned out that the old housekeeper was sitting on the edge of the bed, but Lin Xiao had just woken up, and he hadn't noticed that the old housekeeper was obviously relieved when he saw Lin Xiao wake up, and then said to himself, "You are also stupid, obviously you can't cultivate, and you still have to challenge the clansmen in the family ring, isn't it just to be ridiculed for a few words?
After listening to the old housekeeper's reproach, Lin Xiao was completely stunned, was he beaten unconscious? Obviously, when he was talking to the old housekeeper in the courtyard, he suddenly fell into a coma, Lin Xiao was puzzled, frowned, and didn't know why.
The old housekeeper saw that Lin Xiao was silent, thinking that he knew that he was wrong, and the boy wanted to save face, since he had woken up, he should also know that it was wrong, so let him be quiet, the old housekeeper didn't say anything more, and slowly walked out of the room, leaving Lin Xiao to think alone in the room.
After a long time, Lin Xiao shook his head, he didn't understand what happened at all, so he had to think that he was knocked unconscious, and then had a dream, although he didn't remember the clip of himself in the ring until now, maybe he was beaten and amnesia, Lin Xiao laughed self-deprecatingly, sure enough, he was still a waste, I thought I could cultivate? No, whether it is a dream or not, I will know if I practice, thinking of this, Lin Xiao immediately began to operate the cultivation method, and the surrounding spiritual power began to slowly gather, and after the spiritual power gathered in the sea of qi, it traveled towards the life gate and Guan Yuan, forming a cycle over and over again, yes, Lin Xiao felt that it was the same as the so-called dream, it seemed that it was not a dream. Lin Xiao muttered. I don't know when, there was a noisy sound outside, and Lin Xiao only reacted, when the old housekeeper left, it was still evening, and now the sun was high. It was so noisy outside, Lin Xiao decided to go out and see what was going on.
As soon as he left the room, a clansman ran over and said, "Young master, hurry up and test your spiritual power, the clansmen have arrived." Although he called the young master, this clansman did not respect Lin Xiao, but instead used a commanding tone.
Lin Xiao frowned, testing his spiritual power, a familiar feeling, as if he had experienced it, sorted out his thoughts, and walked towards the square.
