Chapter 58: Awakening
At midnight, in the Monster Mountain Range, the heavy rain stopped, the clouds dispersed, and the quiet sky was dotted with stars.
Due to the heavy rain, the roar of the waterfall was even louder and deafening.
On the cliff next to the waterfall, there was a circular light spot, like a projection of the moon, which was extremely conspicuous in the dark forest. When I got closer, I found that it was the light coming from a cave on the cliff.
In the cave, several moonstones emitted a faint light.
A naked young man was lying on a boulder with his eyes closed. His slender body was covered with burn marks as if he had been struck by lightning.
Yao Lao faced the direction of the cave entrance, closed his eyes and crossed his legs, floating in the air. Suddenly, he seemed to sense something, his calm face moved, without looking back, he said with a little joy:
"You're awake!"
Xiao Bai felt pain all over his body at this moment, and there was also a feeling of numbness. The feeling of pain and itchiness was very uncomfortable. From time to time, a tingling feeling came from his sea of consciousness, which made him feel like fainting again.
Even though he was determined, he couldn't help but snorted.
"Hey, kid, why are you so eager for quick success? With your talent, it's only a matter of time for you to become a strong man on the continent. There's no need to take such a risky move and put yourself to death!"
Yao Lao heard Xiao Bai's groan of pain, sighed, and said a little incomprehensible.
He really wondered why this kid did what he did today. In his eyes, Xiao Bai had always been calm and patient since he started practicing.
During the years when he was in the ninth stage of Dou Zhi Qi, the girl from the Xiao family was worried about him.
But he never saw impatience or despair on Xiao Bai's face. His words were also unusually gentle, and he never complained, which was exactly the opposite of his cheap apprentice.
"After all, they are young people!" He couldn't figure it out, so Yao Lao could only blame the young people for being impulsive and sighed in his heart.
Xiao Bai couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard Yao Lao's words. Although he didn't take the initiative, today's events could be said to have nothing to do with him, or it could be said that the cause was on him.
After entering the Monster Mountain Range, Xiao Bai felt that the wood attribute energy here was abundant, and it was a good place to practice wood attributes.
Because of this, the Wood Thunder and Ice Flame Thunder in his body were very active here. Xiao Yi absorbed the wood attribute energy here much faster, and wood can make fire, so Xiao Bing also absorbed a wave of it fiercely.
This caused their wood and fire attributes to increase greatly, but the thunder attribute energy could not keep up.
Xiao Bai was flying in the sky, and it was a thunderstorm. The thunder attribute energy around him increased greatly. The two little guys were like a long drought and a sweet rain in an instant. They were extremely eager, and they didn't care whether Xiao Bai could catch these thunder attribute energies, and they rushed out directly.
After all, these two little guys only have spirituality, but no intelligence. They act without thinking, relying entirely on instinct. When they encounter something they want to eat and can eat, they just start eating it.
"It's hard to be a father!" Xiao Bai sighed helplessly in his heart.
Of the two little guys in his body, Xiao Bing looked a little listless, turning into a ball of thunder and shrinking in the heart, motionless. Xiao Bai was not worried, because it did not hurt its origin, but just consumed a little too much energy, and it would recover after a while. Xiao Yi was constantly busy repairing his meridians, combing the thunder attribute energy accumulated in the meridians, and occasionally sending some of what he couldn't eat to Xiao Bing. Of course, this was just a figurative metaphor. After Xiao Yi cleaned up the accumulated energy, it flowed through the heart and was swallowed by Xiao Bing.
Xiao Bai looked at their actions and did not complain about their private actions. After all, his current strength could not afford to support them.
For these thunder species that have been obtained or not obtained in his body, Xiao Bai has been planning how to make them grow. He has some ideas in his mind, but they are not very clear yet.
"It seems that I need to deal with the things at hand as soon as possible and go to Canaan College!"
Because the dean there was of the thunder attribute, he didn't believe that the academy didn't have a thunder attribute cultivation treasure land. Although it was not mentioned in the original book, it should be there.
"Boy, what's wrong with you? Did you get struck by thunder and become stupid?" Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Yao Lao turned around and looked at him lying there, motionless and dazed, a little worried.
Xiao Bai rolled his eyes secretly, wondering if this old guy would speak. He endured the numbness and pain in his cheeks and said in a hoarse and weak voice:
"I'm fine, but I'll trouble you to take care of me!"
Yao Lao was relieved when he finally spoke.
He had seen someone who was struck by thunder on the forehead and became stupid, so he was a little worried when he saw Xiao Bai's eyes were dull and he didn't speak after waking up.
If someone else called him senior and became stupid after going out with him, how would he explain to his apprentice when he went back? And that little girl, I'm afraid she would use the Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame to burn his old bones.
"It's a small matter to look after you, as long as you don't do such stupid things again in the future. The way of cultivation is to relax and work hard. Don't rush for quick success. Sometimes it's not conducive to cultivation!" Yao Lao looked at him seriously and advised.
"Thank you for your teachings, Xiao Bai will remember it!" Xiao Bai said sincerely.
Although Yao Lao didn't know the inside story and had some misunderstandings, it was also a caring word. Xiao Bai could distinguish right from wrong and didn't think there was anything wrong.
"That's good!" Yao Lao saw that his attitude was sincere, and he was relieved. He smiled and stroked his beard and nodded.
Then he said with a little mischief in his eyes: "You kid has a good capital!"
At first, Xiao Bai didn't react. Capital? What capital? Looking along his gaze, he was speechless and cursed in his heart:
"Damn, this frivolous old man!"
At this time, he found that he was naked, lying on a huge rock with his legs spread out. He hurriedly endured the pain in his sea of consciousness and took out a set of robes from the ring to cover himself.
He looked at Yao Lao with hatred. He didn't expect that this was the first time that Xiao Bai was seen naked by someone. The person who saw him naked was not a pretty girl, but an old man.
He couldn't help but think a little sadly, whether he was dirty!
About half an hour later, Xiao Bai felt that he could finally move reluctantly, and sat up from the boulder with difficulty.
The meridians in his body were still being repaired. At this rate, it would take about two more days before he could barely run the exercises. If the exercises could not run, it also meant that he could not use the Dou Qi.
"Senior, I need about two more days to barely recover. We have to stay here for two days before we can set off!"
"It doesn't matter, just two days!"
Seeing this, Xiao Bai stopped talking. He wanted to go and see the situation in the sea of consciousness.
His mind sank into the sea of consciousness. As soon as he came in, he saw that it was extremely empty and dry. There was only a trace of soul power floating in it. It was not as majestic as before, and there seemed to be a breath of heavenly thunder in the sea of consciousness, but there was not a trace of thunder attribute.
