The center of the Bright Spirit City - in the Spirit Lake

As Xia Longtian went deeper into the Spirit Lake, he felt that the spiritual power beside him was getting stronger and stronger. The pressure under the water had to make him strengthen his elemental spiritual power. He didn't expect that the pressure at the bottom of this Spirit Lake would be dozens of times greater than the pressure of the water outside. Now, when he has just entered the middle stage of the Five Elements, he also has to pay more attention to this underwater. He strengthened the connection between the water element and himself, felt the bottom of the Spirit Lake, and felt that there was something below that was continuously absorbing the elemental spiritual power. Slowly sneaking down for a half-extinguished time, I could vaguely see a point of light at the bottom of the lake with the naked eye, but my vision was extremely blurry, and I just felt that something was shining below.

"Why hasn't the patriarch been back for so long?" Next to the Linghu Lake, the Great Elder of the Xia Clan on the viewing platform whispered to several Xia Clan elders beside him.

"Could it be that we are discussing it with those five old goblins?" replied the third elder as he looked at the center of the Spirit Lake, but could only vaguely see a dark shadow on a ritual platform.

"Then let's wait for a few stops. The Great Elder suggested.

"It's good that the patriarch said that you can't act rashly at any time. The second elder looked at the elders and said.

"Continue to observe the movement of the Spirit Lake, and if there is anything wrong, quickly rush to the center of the Spirit Lake. The Grand Elder ordered.

"Yes. The elders replied in a whisper, and began to mobilize their elemental spiritual power, observing the movement of the Spirit Lake.

"Why hasn't Xia Longtian come out yet, it's been half over. On the ceremonial stage of the Spirit Lake Center, the second archmage said impatiently.

"Don't be impatient, I feel that the spiritual power under this spiritual lake is very abundant, and the underwater pressure is a little extraordinary. I could still feel Xia Longtian slowly sneaking underwater. But how did this Spirit Lake become like this today······ The fourth Grand Elder sat cross-legged, his black robe covering his face, and it was completely impossible to see what kind of expression he had at this time.

"Fourth sister, your water element has been promoted again, even I can't detect where Xia Longtian is in the Spirit Lake. The Great Elder in the center exclaimed.

"Eldest sister, do you think that when your wood element reaches Dacheng, my water element will not be promoted, don't forget that the five of us are the goblins of the original academy. The fourth archmage laughed.

"How ugly the goblin is, let's continue to observe this spiritual lake, and hope that Xia Longtian is safe and sound. The archmage in the center looked at the bottomless spiritual lake and replied.

The bottom of Linghu Lake.

The water began to roll, a completely different scene from the inside and above the Spirit Lake. It was a pale blue, and the sunlight could no longer penetrate the elemental spiritual power here, Xia Longtian relied on his spiritual power to grope underneath.

Outside the Bright City-

It is not the same as the inside of the city, although it is outside the city, but it is very orderly. To the north of the city of Light is a forest, lush with trees. It's as if once you enter, you can't get out. In the south, there is a plain with wild grasses everywhere, and there is no edge in sight. In the west, the mountains are majestic and steep, and the more you look to the west, the higher the mountains will increase in turn, even where you can see with the naked eye. You can see the snow on the top of the mountain. This East is a little different. As in the south, a plain. But in the middle of the plain there is a river that is not too wide. Now that it comes to this river, the strength of these five great mages is also unimaginably strong. This river is connected to the Spirit Lake in the city, which is also the only source of water in the Light Spirit City, and many generations of people in the Light Spirit City have relied on this river to inhabit. But the river turned into the same color as the spiritual lake in the city, and the five spiritual colors blended with each other. What's even more exaggerated is that the color spreads all the way to a few hundred feet away.

Although the color of this spiritual lake has changed, it can be seen that there is nothing unusual in this water, but these underwater elemental creatures are even more happy. Swimming around in these five colored rivers, it was as if absorbing these huge elemental spiritual powers. Elemental creatures, like humans, rely on the elements to survive in the elemental spirit realm. But unlike humans, elemental beings can only rely on elemental spiritual power to maintain their own lives, and if they cultivate to nothing, or leave a place where there are elements. Either die or be digested by the elemental realm. Therefore, the number of human beings is still far greater than that of these elemental creatures. However, the elemental creatures that can survive all possess elemental spiritual power, and their wisdom will also be strong because of their own cultivation. Therefore, ordinary people are still very afraid of these elemental creatures.

Elemental creatures are also divided into elements, unlike humans who can choose a natal element, so they maintain their own cultivation, and when they reach a certain level of cultivation, they can break through the bottleneck and cultivate another element. Five elements, each person has a different choice. And when he successfully cultivated all the five elements in his heyday, no one in the Elemental Spirit Realm had ever reached this level. However, the ancestor of the Xia family, Xia Yuxian. His story has been passed down from more than a thousand years to the present day. At that time, when they heard Xia Yuxian's name, people had already worshiped him to set him up as their own example. Although his cultivation had not yet reached the peak of the five elements, he was a human being who had successfully cultivated all the elements. You must know that the further you cultivate, the more difficulties you will encounter, and the more difficult it will be to break through the bottleneck. It is already very difficult to cultivate one element to the fullest, and cultivating multiple elements, either your innate spiritual power is so much that it greatly exceeds that of ordinary people. Or you have an opportunity, and it is also your creation to meet it.

Back to elemental creatures. Elemental organisms are divided into air, earth, and water. And elemental creatures are also divided into races, and each realm is commanded by elemental creatures with high cultivation. They have been relying on their own way of survival to survive in the Elemental Spirit Realm, in order to make their race a formidable presence among the elemental creatures of other races. There are three leaders of elemental creatures, and they guard the elemental creatures of air, earth, and water. And it maintains the balanced development of elemental life. However, elemental beings and humans have always been in a state of hostility, as humans have always been reluctant to divide the realm with elemental beings. Humans want to dominate the entire Elemental Spirit Realm, greedy. Humans want these elemental creatures to submit to their bodies, but they just feel that these creatures are nothing more than inferior creatures in the elemental spirit realm. As a result, humanity has not stopped expanding its territory.

In today's Elemental Spirit Realm, all life is very mixed. In fact, tens of thousands of years ago, the three ancestors of elemental creatures had already divided the elemental spirit realm. And every race is harmonious. I don't know when the human race was born in the Elemental Spirit Realm. The ancestors of the three elemental creatures thought that humans would want to live with them. Humanity didn't evolve to what it is now. The ancestors of humanity agreed, but after more than a hundred years of living with elemental beings, he felt that he had all kinds of limitations. Then slowly began to learn the ways of survival of other races, and then slowly improved their way of survival. After two or three generations, human beings gradually developed their own laws, and gradually began to reject elemental creatures. Then slowly expand their territory, build walls, and defend against other races. Later, there was a split within the human race, and gradually the races began to divide as well. But instead of coexisting peacefully like elemental creatures, they began to kill each other, just to make their territory bigger and their own resources larger. Human beings are always greedy.

In the Elemental Spirit Realm, in the east outside the Light Spirit City, the river is still full of powerful elemental spiritual power. After about half a while, the color gradually cleared up. I saw in the distance, a black dot above the river, floating along the river in the direction of Guangling City. But when the black dot got closer, it was found that it was a child floating on the river on the leaf surface of a thousand-year-old spirit tree. The child sucked his fingers and slept very sweetly. However, the most surprising thing is that. Where this child floats over, the elemental spiritual power will disappear······ The river was like this, and the water gradually cleared under the child's drift.

"Strange······ This, how could the elemental spiritual power be released from this mud and sand, or rather, it could be that this spiritual lake was absorbing this elemental spiritual power. No, I'll go outside the city and see what's going on with the river. "In the city of light and spirit, at the bottom of the spirit lake. Because the elemental spiritual power was much weaker, Xia Longtian successfully swam to the bottom of the lake. Looking at the bottom of this spiritual lake, he said silently in his heart.

Xia Longtian looked upwards and strained his feet. The water element around him was controlled in his mind, and he relied on the thoughts in his heart to mobilize all the water elements around him, and as soon as he used his legs, he broke through the water in an instant.

"Whoa····· There was a splash on the surface of the water.

"Come out!" suddenly someone shouted. In an instant, the six elders of the Xia clan surrounded Xia Longtian and kept looking up and down to see if he was injured.

"You ······" Xia Longtian looked at the anxious faces of the six elders, and didn't know what to say.

"How's it going down there. After repeated inspections, the Great Elder at the head found that he was not injured and asked with a sigh.

"I don't know, I'm about to go outside the city to check on the river, and there's something wrong with the water. Xia Longtian looked at the Linghu Dao under his feet.

Xia Longtian seemed to have thought of something, turned around and flew towards the center of the Spirit Lake.

"Patriarch Xia, I've been looking underwater for so long, have you found anything. The head archmage asked when he saw Xia Longtian, who had just flown here.

"To no avail······· I wanted to go outside the city to check it out, and the underwater situation was a bit complicated. It's not too late to make a decision when I come back, this Yutong. Just ask you to continue to take care of it, in case something happens, just transmit the natal element on the jade pendant around her neck and I can receive the message and rush back as quickly as possible. With that, Xia Longtian left a white light in the air, and then disappeared here.

"This Xia Longtian has really spent all his efforts for this Xia Yutong, and this jade pendant seems to be fused with essence and blood. The second Great Elder looked at Xia Yutong, who had been sleeping soundly, and said.

"Biological one, can you not worry about it. Unlike the idiot in our family, he didn't want to learn any of the elemental secrets I taught him. He also said that he wanted to be a chef, which made me angry. The archmage at the head said in an air.

"Is the child older, indulge him and let him know how cruel this world is, and then he will naturally spend his mind on cultivation. The fourth archmage spoke.

"I just can't get used to his unmotivated appearance, too, I'm 21 years old this year, and I think there is time for him to go to the North Forest to experience the experience. Then it is enough to ask someone to protect him secretly, so as not to be unmotivated at home. The Archmage looked to the north and replied.

"Okay, let's continue to observe the situation in Linghu, after all, we should have guaranteed everything for the ceremony. This time it's really weird. The first archmage said with some irritation.

Outside the City of Light

The five spirits in the river were slowly fading, and the water in the place where the child floated became so clear, as if it had been evolved. Xia Longtian was flying from the center of the city to this side, and the child was sleeping peacefully on the river, his small body exuding a spiritless color. Gradually, Xia Longtian flew out of the city, and at this time, the child was about to float into the river that had been introduced into the Light Spirit City. Xia Longtian relied on his powerful elemental control, perceiving the movement around him, and instantly discovered that there was something wrong with the elemental spiritual power of the river. Hurriedly fell from the air to the river. But I saw a child who happened to be submerged by the river, and was in the drainage of the Light Spirit City that entered below the river. Seeing this, Xia Longtian dived directly into the river, and saw the child wailing and crying under the water, although he couldn't hear the sound, he could clearly see the painful appearance of suffocation on his face. Xia Longtian didn't dare to delay time, hugged the child with those powerful arms, and broke through the water with a force under his feet. With his previous adaptation to the bottom of Linghu Lake, this water pressure was as simple as flying in the air for him.

From Xia Longtian's entry into the water to leaving sleep in the blink of an eye. Just after leaving sleep, the child took a deep breath and cried directly. The spiritless glow on his body has long since disappeared. Seeing this kid crying so sadly, Xia Longtian couldn't help but panic a little in his heart, and grimaced at him while checking his body. What Xia Longtian thought about was that Xia Yutong made a face at her when she was crying, and she immediately burst into tears and laughed, not knowing if it would be useful to this child. But when checking the child's physical condition, he found that his body was filled with extremely large elemental spiritual power. It is so similar to the elemental spiritual power on Xia Yutong's body. Could it be ······ Xia Longtian said silently in his heart. I kept looking around, but found that there was a leaf of a spirit tree floating on the water surface of the drainage and the wall. So it's easy to explain. Suddenly, Xia Longtian concluded that this child was the "culprit" who absorbed half of the elemental spiritual power on Xia Yutong's body based on the time when the child had just drowned and the elemental spiritual power on his body.

If you want to retransfer these elemental spiritual powers to Xia Yutong, there are only two ways. The first is to kill this child in the body that transitions the elemental spiritual power into Xia Yutong, but it is very likely that Xia Yutong will be left with sequelae because of the impurity of the elemental spiritual power. Second, after two people become adults, when the elemental spiritual power reaches the consolidation period of the three elements, the two will be combined. There are only these two ways to transmit these elemental spiritual powers that should belong to Xia Yutong to Xia Yutong's body. However, this method seems to be too ethereal, in Xia Longtian's opinion. Xia Longtian sighed, checked around and found nothing unusual, so he took the child who had been sleeping for a long time and brought it back. However, Xia Longtian did not bring the child to the ceremony, but returned directly to the Xia clan to hand over the child to a maid, and asked her to take care of the child first. Only then did he return to the ceremony.

The ceremony scene was even more lively, the crowd was talking about it, and the six Xia clan elders just walked around the audience, observing the surroundings from time to time to see if Xia Longtian had returned. In the center of the Linghu Lake, the five archmages meditated on the ritual platform in the center of the Linghu Center, and in the arms of the archmage in the center, Xia Yutong, who continued to sleep soundly, was enjoying the elemental spiritual power that had just been bathed.

"It's back!" suddenly someone in the audience shouted. The five archmages were even faster than the six elders of the Xia clan, and they reacted instantly, and they all arrived at the shore of the Spirit Lake in just the blink of an eye. began to look for Xia Longtian's figure in the air. When Xia Longtian got closer, he found that almost all of them were standing on the ground waiting for him. Xia Longtian slowly fell to the ground, and suddenly the six elders of the Xia clan came up to inquire about the situation. Xia Long Tianbian replied, "Let's discuss it after we go back." While looking for the figures of the five Great Elders, he found that they were right behind him. The archmage in the center stepped forward, looked at Xia Yutong in his arms and said, "I'm looking for her, don't worry, she has been feeling the elemental spiritual power, although it is a little less, but it is still much more abundant than the elemental spiritual power of ordinary cultivators." Xia Longtian took Xia Yutong and replied, "Thank you, this time the matter is a little unexpected to me, wait for you to come first, my Xia clan is here to discuss together." Let's finish this ceremony first, and don't let those dignitaries wait. ”

The five archmages nodded, and flew to the ceremony platform in the center of the Spirit Lake. Arms waved in the air, silently thinking something in his heart, and his eyes instantly focused on the same place. The remaining elemental spiritual power in the Spirit Lake, under the command of these five archmages, burst out of the water and rushed straight into the sky. "Boom!" the ball of energy composed of elemental spiritual power exploded in the air with a loud bang. The spiritual power of the five colors spread from that point to the surroundings until it disappeared completely. Afterwards, the five archmages shouted at the same time, "With the order of the elemental mage, I beg the lord of the elements to protect Xia Yutong, the daughter of the Xia clan." After a round of applause from the audience, the ceremony ended.

After five extinguished. Xia Parliament Chamber.

"What! absorbed by this child, and digested!" suddenly exclaimed from the council chamber.

"To be exact, it's completely integrated. Xia Longtian sat on a spirit chair made of a thousand-year-old spirit tree in the middle and replied.

In the council hall, there are a total of twelve people plus Xia Longtian. Five archmages who changed into their own clothes, and six Xia clan elders. However, the most surprising thing is that these five archmages are so young, the archmage in the center is a woman, wearing a long red dress, white calves are exposed, long red hair, delicate face, absolutely captivating. The first archmage was a sturdy young man, with a black robe and a sword at his waist, looking very heroic. The second archmage was a woman, but not as conspicuously dressed as the one in the center. Instead, she wore a full-necked skirt with a pink pattern. The long black hair is just waist-length, and the face is kind. The fourth was a man, dressed in short brown, and although he looked very simple, his full muscles were intimidating. The fifth was a woman, dressed in a dark blue over-the-knee dress, with long black hair and a delicate blue hairpin exuding a faint elemental spiritual power. And the six great elders were a little overshadowed, the unified black robes were all old people who were over the age of sixties, but they did not cause the elemental spiritual power to decline due to the loss of life, on the contrary, their elemental spiritual power had reached the middle stage of the three elements, and their strength was the strongest in the Xia clan.

In fact, the young faces of the five Great Elders were not their own faces, but the improvement of their vitality after a long period of nourishment of elemental spiritual power, which kept their youthful faces. Their true age was already over a hundred years old, and the youngest was the fifth archmage who had only celebrated his 120th birthday a dozen days ago. The six elders of the Xia clan can also maintain their youthful state like these five great elders, but because the cultivation methods of the Xia clan are too special, they consume too much elemental spiritual power every time they cultivate, so in order to save their own elemental spiritual power, they will not waste their precious elemental spiritual power in vain. On the contrary, these five archmages were all representatives of each element of Light Spirit City, and they could mobilize the elemental spiritual power they represented, but all the elements they had cultivated in their lives were fused into their natal elements. Then one's natal element will be several times stronger than others.

There are two purposes for cultivating elemental spiritual power, the first is to make yourself stronger. Since man was born into the world, he was destined to do something in the future. In the Elemental Spirit Realm, the only thing that can prove one's future is strength. Either you are trampled under the feet of someone else, or someone else has trampled you under your feet. The age of the jungle is brutal. The second is that they are inherited because of their previous generation. These five archmages are the inheritance of the five archmages of the previous term. They are cultivating to protect this land. Since the last five archmages of Bright Spirit City died in the mountains west of Bright Spirit City, in order to defend against a catastrophe. Because of this catastrophe, seven powerhouses fell in Light Spirit City.

His gaze turned back to the Xia Clan's council hall

"Has this kid found out where it came from? The archmage in the center looked at Xia Long's evil path.

"No, I just asked people to check, and I didn't find anyone who lost a child in Light Spirit City, and now I can be sure that this child is from another city. Based on what I've seen before, there's a good chance the child was an outcast. However, what can be absorbed by this abundant elemental spiritual power is not much different from this child's innate capital and Yutong. There are three types of innate capital, general, rare, and legendary. In this way, this child's innate capital can be positioned as the legendary low-level. Although it is lower than the legend of Yutong, it is already a magical existence. Xia Longtian looked at the two sleeping children in his arms and sighed.

"Innate capital is an important thing for both elemental mages and elemental warriors. After all, it's the ability to decide how far you can go in the future. Since this child can be thoroughly absorbed, this child can be regarded as having a relationship with Yutong. Let's just assume that all this is arranged by God. The Great Elder looked at the people in the council hall and said.

"Well, good. Just waiting for your words, then, you all have no opinions. Xia Longtian looked at everyone in the council hall.

"I agree, I agree·····" All of them raised their right hands.

"Okay, it was unanimously approved, and in the future, this child will be regarded as the adopted child of my Xia clan. Xia Longtian stood up from the Spirit Tree chair and shouted as he looked at the two children in his arms.

"However, this child's background still has to be investigated, since this time it was caused by our negligence. We can just check his background, and we don't have to worry about Patriarch Xia. The Archmage who was in the center looked at Xia Long Heavenly Dao.

"Well, then please. Xia Longtian gently placed the child on the wooden chair and bowed in the direction of the five archmages.

"You're welcome, this is our responsibility, since we understand it at this time, then the five of us will go first. Patriarch Xia, go back. The archmage in the center returned the favor and led the four archmages out of the Xia clan hall after bowing.

Nine years later·········
