Memories flooded like a tide, sending Xia Xiao back to two years ago. It was the hardest time of his life, and every day was like an abyss.

He has been unable to practice for two years after being invested in the dynasty, the dynasty has suspicions, the imperial capital is full of doubts and opposition, resources are precious, and a waste cannot be provided for in vain. In the face of this, the old prophecy no longer has any prestige.

On a cold rainy night, Xia Xiao tested his vitality again according to the original plan, but the colorless test crystal had no reaction, and others laughed at him one step ahead.

The dynasty ordered that the rod be beaten with two hundred, and Xia Xiao, who was drenched in the rain, opened his flesh. But he knew that he had to resist and fight for the last year, or else he would waste enough resources to depose his father. The rise of the Xia family will also become a flash in the pan after people's tea.

He struggled to get up, but the rain could not take away the heat of his skin, but only added to the pain.

At some point, an umbrella was held overhead. Xia Xiao had a few strands of wet hair blocking her eyes, but she could still see the girl's face clearly.

She is older than herself, with delicate facial features, ice muscles and jade bones, and her short ear-length hair is clean and neat, and she is as quiet and beautiful as fireworks in the world. Later, Xia Xiao learned that her name was Su Huan and she was also the heir of the minister. That night, she withstood the condemnation of the dynasty and the pickling of the people, and inadvertently soothed Xia Xiao's scarred heart.

Compared with that time, Su Huan in front of Xia Xiao was a little more mature, and the cold on her pretty face was heavier.

After a short look at each other, Xia Xiao peeled aside the refugees on both sides of the street and stood in front of the car window.

"You really have vitality fluctuations, it doesn't seem to be a rumor. ”

Su Huan felt the injury on Xia Xiao's body, and asked in surprise:

"Have you seen someone from the Zhu family?"

Xia Xiao nodded.

"They were all dead. ”

The understatement shocked Su Huan, Xia Xiao changed, more indifferent than when he was in the imperial capital, with a pair of eyes like the vertical pupils of a wolf beast.

"You're going to war?"

"Well, I'm in the Venerable Realm. ”

After perceiving, walking, and condensing, it is the Venerable Realm!

"Is the Zhu family moving in the imperial capital?"

After coming to Longgang City, the Su family often helped them secretly, and the Xia family's plan to return to the imperial capital was even clearer to them. And Su Huan is one of the best girls in the Su family!

"It's the same as before, but if you continue to work hard, they won't be able to interrupt the plan!, but you have to be careful, the Zhu family's methods are dirty, this time taking advantage of the chaos, I'm afraid they will still do it!"

Xia Xiao nodded solemnly, and after a short exchange, Su Huan left in a carriage, and she had fallen behind.

"Gotta survive!"

Seeing Su Huan leaving, many refugees were even more afraid of Xia Xiao. Although Xia Xiao and Su Huan deliberately lowered their voices, they didn't hear the content of the conversation, and it was proven that they might be able to talk to such a strong person.

Grab the medicine and go home.

Xia Xiao told his mother and second sister the news of seeing Su Huan, and they reacted in unison, surprised and happy.

The Great Xia military decreed that both men and women could enter the battlefield at the age of eighteen. However, cultivators above the condensation level are not subject to age restrictions, Su Huan is seventeen years old this year, and he has already entered the Venerable Realm, this kind of cultivation speed makes Xia Xiao step up his time to cultivate!

Under the clouds, Xia Xiao sat in the backyard, and when he made a cultivation handprint, the darkness in front of him was replaced by bright sunlight, and immediately after that, there was an incomparably dense forest in his field of vision.

Walking into the forest, you will be surrounded by mysteries, as if there are shocking secrets hidden. Xia Xiao couldn't peep in, and he couldn't understand it, but no matter how long he walked, the forest would never come to an end.

This world, called the Great Wilderness, is full of vitality, and after sensing it, it can be used and contained in the body in a small amount to strengthen the shins. Condensation is to condense a seed of vitality in the body, which can greatly mobilize the vitality of heaven and earth.

Watering the seeds of vitality with the vitality of heaven and earth, and waiting for them to sprout, it represents entering the realm of dignity.

There are five levels of Venerable Realm, which are Young Age, Zhimao, Shengguo, Qu Wheel, and Towering Heaven. Few people know about the realm above the Venerable Realm, and it is not within Xia Xiao's current consideration.

Every cultivator who has entered the Venerable Realm has a tree of vitality growing in his body, and the five realms of the Venerable Realm are named after their growth characteristics. And Xia Xiao clearly did not enter that realm, but there was a dense forest in his body.

Notice, not one, but one!

This was Xia Xiao's own unsolved mystery, and he never told anyone. In addition to these, there are some things that he has never known, such as his master.

A year ago, the Xia family came to Longgang City. Xia Xiao worked hard for half a year and still had no vitality fluctuations, which made him heartbroken. But at this time, a white-bearded old man appeared, and he said that Xia Xiao couldn't practice not because of his own reasons, but because there was a seal in his body.

Although he doesn't know the identity of the old man, Xia Xiao can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor. In the end, the old man really broke the seal, and that day the black dragon turned into smoke and flowed out from Xia Xiao's seven orifices, and since then Xia Xiao's meridians have been exhausted, and the vitality of heaven and earth has appeared around.

Xia Xiao worshipped the old man as his teacher, but the latter left quietly, leaving only a simple knife.

He had said that he would see you again in half a year. Now the time was almost up, but he was nowhere to be seen.

Xia Xiao had a lot of doubts, about the forest in his body, about his mother's illness, he wanted to ask his father. Although the master has never shown his strength, the seal that the powerhouses of the dynasty have not discovered, since he has lifted it, it is enough to show his strength.

I hope Master will come back soon.

Sitting in the forest, Xia Xiao spit out a degree, and the surrounding forest gradually faded into a virtual reality, and finally turned into a backyard. The vitality of heaven and earth is accumulating, and it is inhaled into Xia Xiao's body to repair injuries, strengthen the body, and finally store it in the body.

As long as you get rid of the perception, the cultivation speed will gradually increase, and it will not slow down again until it is condensed. The current Xia Xiao is in the middle of his journey, and the speed of absorbing vitality is extremely fast.

Soon, the dantian was full of vitality. But Xia Xiao didn't end it, but had to expand it so that it could enter the later stage.

Soon, Xia Xiao had already touched the edge of the late stage of the journey, but he was not in a hurry, and after consolidating his vitality, he withdrew from the cultivation state.

If you want the house to be built high, the foundation must be stable!

Longgang City City Lord's Mansion

There are a lot of refugees these days, even if they send food relief according to the order of the dynasty, they can't slow it down, and the most upsetting thing for the Yang City Lord is the Xia family. He thought that Xia Xiao was in a catastrophe, but he didn't expect to miraculously survive. He didn't know how to deal with the Zhu family now, and he didn't know what he would do in the future.

A black shadow flashed in front of him, and the fat-headed and big-eared Yang City Lord hurriedly returned to his room after explaining the task.

"Your Excellency!"

The city lord of Yang was submissive, but the thin man opposite him didn't appreciate it, and just said in a cold voice:

"After receiving a hundred taels of gold, just do things like this?"

"My lord, I'll send someone again immediately, but that Xia Xiao ......"

"Xia Xiao, I'll handle it personally. ”

City Lord Yang knelt on the ground, not daring to say anything.

"How many people else know about this?"

"It's just me, everyone else is dead!"

The thin man chanted a good word repeatedly, and then smiled evilly, sealed his hands, and turned his head to slap on the head of Lord Yang Cheng.

"When you disappear, no one will know!"

After the man disappeared, only the fat body of City Lord Yang was left in the room.
