It seemed like a century had passed, and Long Xiao opened his eyes with difficulty, only to see the faint light of the fire flickering in front of him.

"Where am I?" Long Xiao shook his swollen head, but he felt as if his head was about to explode, and there was no place on his body that didn't hurt.

"Why am I here, grandpa, where is Nian'er?" Long Xiao tried to recall what happened before he fell unconscious, but his head ached sharply. Long Xiao thought about raising his arm and rubbing his forehead, but his arm couldn't move as if it was tied, he looked down and couldn't help but gasp, my good man! There was a big snake with the thickness of a bowl wrapped around his body, the big snake was snow-white, but the blood-colored lines were faintly visible, not to mention how penetrating it was, the big snake entangled Long Xiao from bottom to top, and he couldn't move.

I didn't see where the head of the snake was, but I only saw the body of the snake wrapped around his arms and waist, and the whole body of the big snake was glowing, and the snake tail alone was the thickness of the mouth of the bowl.

"Good girl, I was bitten by that little snake last time, but now it's good, there's a bigger one. Long Xiao grinned, thinking bitterly about how good this could be, but fortunately, the snake was motionless, as if asleep, Long Xiao let out a long breath to calm himself down.

There were two torches not far from him, and the light of the torches was already very faint, and the flickering flames were about to be extinguished even the next moment. Long Xiao looked around, this was a bottomless cave, the entrance of the cave was not very big, the entrance of the cave had been blocked, but the inside was quite open, and he could see the mottled walls on all sides nearby, and there were several pitch-black cave entrances that led to somewhere.

Blocking the doorway was a boulder, large and obviously far from humanly movable.

At this moment, the two torches finally burned out their last bit of strength, and the flames gradually extinguished into sparks, and then into a puff of green smoke, and the entire cave was shrouded in inky darkness.

Long Xiao's heart, which was beating violently just now, seemed to stop all of a sudden as the flames went out, and it took a while to begin to recover. "The cave is so dark, this snake must be blind. Although he knew that snakes didn't rely on their eyes, Long Xiao still comforted himself like this.

Suddenly, there was a burst of sound from not far away, and Long Xiao, who had lost his sense of direction and vision, had extremely sensitive ears at the moment. The sound was like the sound of stones rubbing against the ground, more like a behemoth crawling towards itself. Long Xiao imagined the countless fierce birds and beasts he had seen or heard of, his body trembled unconsciously, and cold sweat dripped down his forehead to the ground, and he actually made a click-click sound.

Suddenly, a light came in, Long Xiao squinted his eyes, it turned out that the boulder at the entrance of the cave was being moved, and the light at the entrance of the cave became brighter and brighter, making Long Xiao squint his eyes.

As the boulder at the entrance of the cave was removed, there was a murmuring sound outside the cave, which sounded like it was raining, and when the stone stopped moving, a figure appeared at the entrance of the cave.

The cave had been illuminated by the light outside the cave, and Long Xiao saw that the man was wearing a well-dressed robe, but it was obviously a little messy, as if he had just gone through a battle, plus he was wet from the rain, and he looked a little embarrassed, and the man was carrying a strange-looking beast on his back.

Long Xiao saw the arrival of this person, his heart was like grasping a life-saving straw full of hope, although this person does not know whether it is good or bad, but whether it is a good person or a bad person, after all, it is better than being eaten by this big snake, as the so-called once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope, now Long Xiao's fear of snakes has long been far greater than the fear of death.

So he hurriedly signaled to the man with his eyes, asking him not to disturb the snake first, and if he could come and save himself, he would be even more grateful.

Seeing that Long Xiao had woken up and was staring at him, the man was slightly surprised, but when he saw Long Xiao squeezing his eyebrows and nodding and shaking his head, he felt a little funny in his heart, and said loudly: "My cold jade snake can help you heal, and it won't eat you." ”

With that, he tossed the beast aside, re-lit the two torches, and then moved the stone again to block the hole.

Originally, when he heard the man speak loudly, Long Xiao's heart was almost shocked, but when he heard him say that the snake was his, it would not bite, so he breathed a sigh of relief, turned sideways and looked at the man vigilantly and asked, "Who are you? Where am I?

"Don't move, you're not lightly hurt. The man said coldly with an expressionless face, "The stalagmite beast's blood is conducive to recovery, and the beast's blood is drunk for a while." He picked up the animal he had just thrown on the ground and walked to the side.

Although this man's voice was a little indifferent, he not only used the cold jade snake to heal himself, but also caught a beast for himself to make up for himself, there should be no threat to himself, Long Xiao thought about it, and tried to move his body, but he didn't feel it just now, this time he moved, and there was a sharp pain all over his body, Long Xiao couldn't help grinning.

"You should be thankful that you survived, the meridians of your body were extremely damaged, and you almost exploded to death. Over the years, I have never seen anyone make themselves like this because of soul awakening, fortunately you fainted in our family's spiritual pool, if it weren't for the timely nourishment of the spring water of the spiritual pool, I think you would be useless even if you eat any elixir now, and there is no need to take someone else's life. Seeing Long Xiao's expression, the man said while pulling the skin of the stalagmite beast.

"Someone else's life?grandpa, what's wrong with grandpa?!" Long Xiao didn't care about the pain, and sat up in a daze.

"Even if you don't die, it's pretty much it. The man stopped what he was doing, thought of something, frowned and asked, "Who was Nian'er you just said?"

Long Xiao raised his head and looked up and down at this strange man, the man had big eyebrows, a straight nose and wide ears, and his eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to his grandfather.

But still didn't see whether this person was trustworthy or not, Long Xiao was silent for a while and didn't answer, guessing his various identities, and then asked, "Then who are you?"

"I'm your second uncle. The man looked up at Long Xiao and said with a blank face. As he spoke, he raised the jade pendant in his hand, and then told him what happened after Long Xiao fell into a coma that day.

Long Xiao looked at this man in surprise, unable to believe that this was the third relative he had seen in his life.

"How is Grandpa?What will happen if they take him?Why do they arrest him?" Although Long Xiao's body couldn't move, his head was very clear, and countless questions popped up at this moment.

"When we met him, he had already suffered a lot of internal injuries, otherwise it would not be so easy for the patriarch alone to keep his father, and it would definitely not be too good to be caught by our clan now, but it should not be in danger of life, and some of our dragon clan seniors still respect him very much. ”

"As for why he was arrested. The man paused and continued, "Naturally, it's because of you. Twelve years ago, because of your parents, my people were greatly injured. After that, my father and your parents all disappeared and disappeared, and for twelve years, you have been the object of hunting by all the families in the world, and the specific reason is. At this point, the man thought for a moment and continued, "Maybe it has something to do with the murmur twelve years ago. ”

"Murmuring?" Long Xiao was a little surprised, he had heard this legend, and the murmur indicated that the world would change, and the great changes in the country would often be due to one person, and this person would be called a disaster. "You're saying I'm a curse?"

"Who in the world knows if the disaster is not a disaster? It's just speculation. But for the royal family and the world, as long as there is a possibility of becoming a disaster, they cannot live. In that war, the legendary two divine beasts appeared, one swallowed the light of the sky, and the other swallowed the clouds and rain of the sky, so that the monks of the world did not grow in the slightest for several months, and in the following months, the birds cried day and night. On that day, it coincided with your birth in the midst of a great war, so it would naturally be called a disaster. The man spread out his hair that was originally tied in a bun, turned his body to look Long Xiao up and down, and continued to ask, "Who is Nian'er?"

"Nian'er, it's my sister!" Long Xiao finally took off his guard and said worriedly, "Nian'er is still at home, we didn't tell her at all when we came out, and now we must be in a hurry!"

"Sister! is your own sister?!" the man looked a little surprised, and even raised his voice a few degrees.

"Well, a mother's compatriot, grandpa said that we are dragon and phoenix fetuses. Long Xiao replied.

"Everyone in the world thinks that your parents only gave birth to one child, but it turns out that you have a younger sister. The man's eyes widened in surprise, and he thought it was incredible.

"Where are we now? I have to go back to save Grandpa and Nian'er!" At this time, the snake had released Long Xiao under the guidance of the man, Long Xiao struggled to get up, but his feet had no strength at all, and he stumbled and was about to fall to the ground, but the man grabbed him and put him back on the bed.

"Don't worry, you've been in a coma for ten days, and besides, this manglin is located in the western part of the Xuan Kingdom, and it's not like you'll be able to get out for a while, so it's useless for you to be anxious now. ”

"Didn't you say that the jade pendant brought us here, then let it take us back!" Long Xiao said anxiously.

"The energy of this jade pendant has been depleted, and now it is no different from an ordinary jade pendant, if you want to use it, you may have to wait a few more years for it to absorb enough energy. The man took out the jade pendant, only to see that the blue light wave that had been circulating on it had long since disappeared, and it seemed to be just an ordinary jade piece.

"The miracle of the Heavenly Apocalypse Spirit Pool suddenly changed, and the elders of the whole clan went out to find you and my father, who was seriously injured, and was troubled by the patriarch before he gave up his life to entrust you to me. The man sighed and continued: "In this situation, it is useless to be anxious, the top priority is to heal your injuries first, so that we can get out alive, and only then can we go to your sister and save your grandfather." ”

Long Xiao's mood suddenly fell, and he muttered, "Then do you know where my father and mother are?"

"I don't know, your whole family has not been heard from for twelve years, and their names have never been heard from in the rivers and lakes. ”

"What happened twelve years ago?" Long Xiao asked.

The man was silent for a while, frowned and sighed, and said: "Our family is involved in the royal dispute, your father and mother were seriously injured by the Gale family, and then there is no news, perhaps, they may still be alive." ”

Long Xiao finally understood why his father and mother left him and Nian'er, maybe they couldn't even guarantee that they would live at that time, and being taken away by their grandfather to live in seclusion was the best future they could give themselves and Nian'er.

"Grandpa, Nian'er......" Thinking of grandpa and Nian'er, Long Xiao began to read the names of the two people over and over again, yesterday the family lived happily together, and the sound and smile were still echoing in the brain, but in a blink of an eye, it was already a thing or a person, as if it was another world.

The man saw that Long Xiao was quiet, turned around and walked away, and after a while, he came over with a bowl of beast blood.

"Drinking the blood will help you recover from your internal injuries, and you can only do what you want when you are healed. ”

Long Xiao took the bowl, raised his head and drank the beast's blood cleanly, and said silently: "Grandpa said that the medicine must be taken when the body is sick, and after taking the medicine, the injury can be healed quickly." ”

The man nodded and said, "Your soul body has awakened, try to cultivate, and you can greatly speed up the recovery of your body." ”

"I've awakened?!" Long Xiao muttered to himself, "It turns out that awakening is so painful. ”

The man smiled bitterly and said: "Who told you that the soul awakening will be painful, maybe the awakening of the soul body of other attributes may be painful, but the awakening of the soul body of the water system will not, not only is it not painful but it will be a very wonderful process, especially the process of growing up the body, you are a special case." ”

"The process of growing up?" Long Xiao looked down at his body, and realized that he was no longer what he used to be, and had grown into the appearance of a young man.

"Every spirit master awakens like this, maybe even your grandfather may not recognize you the next time he sees you. The man continued.

"But, how should I cultivate?"

"Any spirit master must go through hard cultivation to achieve something, and the more abundant the water system energy in the place where we cultivate, the more we can increase the speed of cultivation. The higher the level, the stronger your energy will be, but the combat power is trained in actual combat, and when you embark on the path of a spirit master, you must make yourself stronger, and the law of the jungle is the first law in any world. Now, I will teach you the most basic cultivation methods. ”

The man looked at Long Xiao, his eyes flashed with some indescribable light, and then said word by word: "Our spirit master cultivates soul power, which is divided into five systems: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. The specific division of each stage is not very clear, but it can be roughly divided into low, medium and high three levels according to the strength of spiritual power, generally speaking, the stage of absorbing qi and gathering spirits is easy to cultivate, but if you are promoted to the level of the cave spirit master, you can be called a strong person, the spirit master is already an elder of the family, and the spirit master of the transformation realm is the top powerhouse of each family, as for the Yu spirit master, the only few in this world are also unborn ancestors, even I have never seen it. The cultivation of the spirit master, ascetic cultivation is naturally the most basic, but comprehension is more important, some people's energy has already reached the peak of the level, but they cannot advance, the reason is that there is no breakthrough, there is no true understanding of the true meaning of energy. As a spirit master, the Realm Breaking Advancement will give rise to innate skills. The innate skill of our water dragon clan in the qi acceptance stage is the dragon body, and the strength of your body is greatly increased, which means that after you awaken, you will be stronger than other people's bodies.

Long Xiao pinched his arm with his fingers, and he felt much tougher than before.
