C2 A Magical Dream

In the air above the burial pit, the thick corpse Qi had already formed a smog, and sunlight that was already obscured by the gray sky could not fall on this place.

It was dark, decayed, and dead.

A breath so weak that it was almost inaudible quietly sounded in the pile of bones. Following the sound, one could discover that the breath came from under the nose of a little boy as thin as firewood.

The boy was covered in blood. He was lying in the pile of corpses with his eyes tightly shut. His face was twisted due to the pain. His body, face, and every inch of his skin were dyed red by the blood, but strangely, under the blood red color, the boy was lying flat on the ground with his eyes tightly shut. His face was twisted due to the pain. His body, face, and every inch of his skin were dyed red. An even more scarlet glow was slowly swimming around.

This scarlet halo seemed to have intelligence. It flickered between brightness and darkness, flickering with a strange force. Every wound that it passed through slowly healed, including the injured internal organs and broken bones.

The little boy was Xiao Yi. He had fallen into a deep coma and was unaware of the changes in his body.

Xiao Yi had a dream. He dreamt of a dark red Tomb Tower. The pagoda had nine floors and towered into the clouds, as if it could pierce through the heaven and earth.

In front of the pagoda stood a mighty and domineering middle-aged man. His face was blurry, but his eyes were as red as the blood sun.

The man had said many strange words, but Xiao Yi couldn't understand them. However, they were firmly imprinted in his mind, as if they had already existed.

After he finished speaking, the domineering man transformed into countless red lights and flew into the ninth floor of the Tomb Tower. He never appeared again. Xiao Yi wanted to enter the pagoda, but an invisible barrier was created, blocking him outside the door.

After that, Xiao Yi woke up. He was awakened by pain and hunger.

"Wah!"

The disgusting smell of rotting corpses made Xiao Yi throw up continuously. However, his stomach was empty. He did not spit out any filth even after vomiting for a long time.

It was not until a long time later that Xiao Yi finally got used to it. However, he soon discovered the unusual changes in his body. "What's going on?! I'm not dead?! Even the injuries on my body are mostly healed!"

Xiao Chen touched the fatal wound on his head. Under the thick layer of blood, there was a scar the size of half a palm. The pain still existed. " I'm not dreaming! Everything is real! Could it be that the dark red bead is really an antique with powerful healing power that saved me? "

" That's not right! They searched my body, but the dark red pearl had already disappeared. Could it be that I dropped it while I was digging? "

Xiao Yi touched his chest, and sure enough, he couldn't find the dark red bead. Although he had some guesses, he was currently at the bottom of the deep pit, surrounded by a 30 meter tall rock wall. There was no way he could go up there, so there was no way he could go back and look for it.

"Since the dark red bead has disappeared a long time ago. . . Xiao Yi asked. "

Confusion flashed across Xiao Yi's mind. However, he was only a child after all. He had been imprisoned in the mine and had rarely come into contact with anything. No matter how hard he racked his brain, he could not figure out that the dark red bead had already been recognized by blood and merged into his body.

A gurgling sound came from his abdomen, causing Xiao Yi to stop his meaningless investigation. He looked around and saw countless corpses and bones.

"He's not dead yet, does that mean he's going to starve to death?"

Xiao Yi thought sadly, but he immediately warned himself not to give up, so he shifted his thoughts to the strange words that appeared out of nowhere in his mind.

"Qi is the origin of all things. Spirit is the source of all things. It leads Qi into the body, leads the spirit to temper the body, and opens up the limits of a person. It is the path of martial arts. However, the path of martial arts allows one to defy the heavens and change one's fate. Human life is limited. What is the end of the endless Martial Path? The only way is to open up a new path!"

" My name is Xuetu. I have been determined to achieve this for my entire life, and I have finally obtained a good result. I have created this Art, the Asura Divine Spell of Life. "

"My descendant, remember, the Asura Divine Spell moves against the current, and it will harm the heavens and the earth. You must not use it indiscriminately, and you must not suffer the wrath of the heavens!"

“. . . ”

The domineering man's words seemed to have been directly imprinted in Xiao Yi's mind. As soon as Xiao Yi thought about it, he could not stop his words from appearing in his mind.

"Asura Divine Spell. . . Asura Divine Spell. . . It has the word 'skill' in it. Could it be the cultivation technique that my big grandpa once mentioned?"

Xiao Yi suddenly woke up from his shock. He remembered that big grandpa once said that in order to become a martial artist, there must be two things. One was the 'Basic Entry', and the other was the 'Cultivation Method'.

As the name implied, Basic Introduction was the inspiration for a martial artist's cultivation. It taught how to absorb spirit energy, how to circulate spirit energy, and so on. This item was not expensive. It was publicly sold everywhere.

The other item, Cultivation Method, is the foundation of a martial artist's cultivation. Without a cultivation method, one will not be able to refine the spirit energy that is absorbed into the body into spirit energy, and will also be unable to store energy. One will not be able to become a martial artist for the rest of their life.

Thus, cultivation techniques were of utmost importance. It was hard to find a gold coin, and the owner would keep it for themselves. It was precisely because of this that many people in this world could not obtain cultivation techniques, could not become martial artists, and could only be the lowest level of commoners and ants for the rest of their lives.

"Martial artist!" Xiao Yi fiercely clenched his fists, and his eyes were so excited that tears flowed out.

In the past, how many times he had longed for it, how many times he had fantasized about it, all of it had been swallowed up by the cold reality.

But at this moment, the high and mighty martial artists, the martial artists who only dared to fantasize at night, were finally right in front of him!

Everything was enough!

Those ruthless trampling, willful bullying, the life of an ant, the fate of having no dignity, everything was already enough!

It was enough!!

"I want to become a martial artist! A powerful martial artist! I want those who dare to step on my head and trample on my dignity to die!! "

" I want to become a martial artist! I want to leave this place! I want to go to Empire Academy! I want to know who I am!"

But. . .

"But, where should I go to find 'Beginner's Foundation'?! Without the 'Foundation for Initiation', one would not be able to become a martial artist without a cultivation technique!!"

Reality was always cruel. Before Xiao Yi could be completely excited, he realized the reality. At this moment, it was as if he was sitting in a treasure vault, but he did not have the key to open the door. He could only be anxious.

There were either zombies or skeletons around him. In front of him was a 30-zhang tall rock wall. It had been corroded by the corpse aura all year round, so it had become extremely smooth.

Despair began to form in Xiao Yi's heart. Boundless unwillingness surged into his heart. It reminded him of the look of guilt in his grandfather's eyes when he left. It reminded him of his unknown background. It reminded him of the fate that could be changed at any moment!

Unwillingness! He couldn't accept it even if he died! Hope was clearly right in front of him, how could he be willing to return to a life that was worse than a pig or dog, to that kind of life without dignity!

"Unwilling! Not willing to die!!"

Bang!

All of a sudden, accompanied by Xiao Yi's shout, a corpse fell from the sky. It just happened to fall beside his feet, causing blood and minced meat to splash out.

On the rock wall, the footsteps that were about to leave suddenly stopped. A figure dressed as a martial artist walked back to the edge of the deep pit and stuck his head out to look, letting out a surprised cry. "Eh! Why is this boy still alive?! I clearly remember that when I threw him down three days ago, he only had one breath left. . . Could it be. . . He really has an antique!"

This martial artist was the guard from that day. His eyes suddenly lit up. He jumped down from the deep pit and grabbed Xiao Yi's shoulder with one hand. Then, with a tap of his feet, he flew up like a goshawk and returned to the rock wall in an instant.

A martial artist could climb roofs, climb walls, and use force to break rocks!

Xiao Yi's mind was stirred as he watched. The strength of the guard made him even more certain that he wanted to become a martial artist. He was held in the guard's hands, and he had no strength to resist. He was like an unbreakable iron clamp.

But soon, Xiao Yi realized that something was wrong. The guards did not seem to be kind enough to save him. The guards ran at an astonishing speed. However, they did not go in the direction of the mining area. Instead, they went in the direction of the forbidden land of all the slaves, the residence of the important people!

"Crap! It must be for the ancient objects!"

Xiao Yi thought that things were not looking good. However, he was like a fish on a chopping board, unable to resist at all. He could only allow the guards to bring him to an extremely luxurious courtyard.

The sound of the door being knocked rang out as he was led into the living room. He saw a handsome and handsome young man with a cold expression sitting on top of him. The folding fan in his hand was lightly waved, and an invisible aura of an upper-class person emanated from it.

"What's the matter?"

The two words were short and solemn. The guard who walked into the room put Xiao Yi down and said respectfully. "Second Young Master , do you remember a slave who was beaten to death three days ago because of an ancient object? After that, he was thrown into a corpse pit by his subordinate. Three days have passed, but this mining slave is safe and sound. I guess it might have something to do with the ancient object. "

The handsome young man named Luo Hui, who was respected as Second Young Master , was the second son of the current patriarch of Luo family. His status was extraordinary. He cast a sideways glance at Xiao Yi, and when he saw the dirty look on Xiao Yi's face, he immediately revealed a disgusted expression.

"You, what's your name? How long have you been in the mine?" Luo Hui didn't look at Xiao Yi as he spoke. Instead, he turned to the maidservant beside him, signaling her to light the incense burner. Although Xiao Yi didn't smell anything, he felt that Xiao Yi's arrival would definitely stink this place.

However, after waiting for a long time, Luo Hui didn't get a reply from Xiao Yi. He turned his head around and found Xiao Yi staring at the bookshelf by the wall. He was trembling all over, and he didn't know what had happened.

"Basic entry!"

Xiao Chen had completely forgotten about his current situation. His eyes were staring at the bookshelf. The book was not expensive, but it was extremely important to him. Basic Entry!

"Pa!" Luo Hui heavily slammed the folding fan. He closed the fan. If it wasn't for his status, he wouldn't be willing to lower himself to fight with a lowly mining slave. He really wanted to slap this lowly slave in front of him, who ignored him, to death with a single palm.

Xiao Chen was awakened by the sound of the folding fan. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and rushed over. He started to think about how to get the Basic Introduction and couldn't help but ignore Luo Hui once again.

Again and again, not more than three times. Luo Hui took a deep breath and warned himself to pay attention to his manners. He did not want to lose his status as a lowly mining slave, so he said, "You can obtain ancient objects. It was your luck, but you are not qualified to possess it. Obediently give me the ancient item, and I might be able to give you some good fortune. . . Become my slave, and obtain glory that you'll never be able to obtain even if you work hard for your entire life. "

The slaves of Luo family didn't have to worry about food and clothing. To the slaves in the mine, it was indeed very tempting. However, Xiao Yi never thought so. After all, slaves were still slaves. No matter how high their status was, they were still slaves. What he wanted was freedom and dignity!

Living without dignity, was he still a human?

"Slave? Hur hur!" Xiao Yi sneered. "I'm really sorry. Your servant is too noble. My lowly life is truly unblessed. "

"How dare you! How did you speak to Second Young Master !? Don't you know the rules!" The guard at the side spoke with a stern voice, and his imposing manner made Xiao Yi's legs tremble.

However, Xiao Yi did not show any signs of fear. He straightened his body and sneered, "Rules? I have not studied much, so I really don't understand. What is it? Can they be eaten? It just so happens that I'm hungry. Give me a catty and I'll try it. "

" Pa! "

Again and again, it had been more than three times. His dignity had been challenged, and Luo Hui could no longer maintain his poise. He opened his folding fan and sent out an energy wave!

The strength of a martial artist was extremely powerful. Just a wave of energy made Xiao Yi feel immense pressure. It was as if a hill was pressing down on him, pressing him down onto the ground!

"Ha! If he doesn't succeed, he will die!" A powerful force came at him, but there was no panic on Xiao Yi's face. Instead, there was a trace of ferociousness and madness on his face!

That's right! Xiao Yi wanted to force Luo Hui to make a move. If he succeeded, he would retake his life. If he failed, he would bury his corpse in this place!

"Bang!"

The force hit Xiao Yi's chest and instantly shattered half of his bones. However, Xiao Yi could not care less. He endured the intense pain all over his body and bent his body sideways, changing the trajectory of his retreat to the wall behind him. His target was the bookshelf!

"Bang!" With a dull sound, Xiao Yi's entire body smashed onto the bookshelf, and then the bookshelf and many books all fell to the ground, but he could not care less about the pain. His eyes swept across and immediately landed on a book outside his arm.

"Beginner's Foundation!!!"

Xiao Yi did not care about anything. Borrowing the momentum of landing, he rolled two times in a row. His broken bones gave off waves of piercing pain, as if they were being burned by a raging fire. It made him wish he was dead!

However, Xiao Yi did not let out a cry of pain. His eyes were filled with stubbornness. Finally, he succeeded. He cleverly took advantage of the moment when he rolled over the Beginner's Foundation and put it into his arms, covering it tightly!

"Ha! Haha! I succeeded! I finally succeeded!!"

Xiao Yi was lying on the ground, trembling with excitement. He wanted to laugh out loud and vent all the grievances in his heart, but he knew that he could not do it now. It was still unknown whether he could leave alive.

Sure enough, Luo Hui folded his folding fan. He said coldly, "You seem to have forgotten your identity? I really don't know who gave you the courage to rebel against me? Remember, you are a slave of my Luo family. You will be everything to me for the rest of your life. Even your lowly life belongs to my Luo family. I won't kill you, but you don't have the right to be killed by me. It will only stain my hands, but. . . If you don't repent and don't recognize your identity, I have at least a thousand ways to make you wish you were dead!"

"Heh! Hehe! Identity! Identity! Identity again! "

Luo Hui's high and mighty attitude mercilessly trampled on Xiao Yi's dignity. It finally touched the last nerve of Xiao Yi. The emotions that he had accumulated for a few years finally erupted at this moment!

No one knew where this strength came from! Xiao Yi struggled to get up. His face became crazy and ferocious. He looked at Luo Hui with his eyes, but when he opened his mouth, he couldn't help but spurt out blood.

His silent resistance and stubborn eyes finally aroused Luo Hui's killing intent. But at this moment, a lovely laughter suddenly sounded. "Haha, Young Master Luo is really awe-inspiring. But, isn't it a loss of value to be angry with a lowly slave?"

As the voice faded, two beautiful women slowly walked into the living room. One of them was wearing a fiery red leather jacket that gave off a fiery feeling, while the other was wearing a pure white dress that was as pure and holy as a white lotus.

The girl walked straight to the seat and sat down. She didn't even look at Xiao Yi. Instead, the girl in a white dress stopped in front of him. She looked at Xiao Yi, who was in a sorry state, and couldn't help but frown.

"So it's Miss Qiu and Miss Murong. I'm sorry for making fun of you. " Luo Hui revealed a bright smile as if he had changed his face. It was as if the dark and fierce smile just now didn't exist.

The white dressed female was Miss Murong. She nodded with a smile and said, "Mr Luo, this child is also very pitiful. Can you give Zhiruo some face and let him go?"

Murong Zhiruo looked at Xiao Yi. Her eyes were clear and not dirty at all. Like the warm sunlight, it smoothened the ferociousness on Xiao Yi's face.

Her eyes were the reflection of her soul. She could not lie to him!

Xiao Yi was stunned. He had never seen such pure eyes. For a moment, he had forgotten the situation he was in. Only those pure eyes were left in his eyes!

It was not until a strong palm was placed on his shoulder that Xiao Yi was shocked. He was stunned for a moment. He did not hear the conversation between Luo Hui and the others, but there was one thing he was sure of - Murong Zhiruo had saved him!

"This is osmanthus cake, take it and eat it. " Murong Zhiruo took out a box of exquisite pastries from her finger ring like a magic trick. She did not mind Xiao Yi's sloppy appearance and personally stuffed it into Xiao Yi's hands.

At this moment, Xiao Yi's heart twitched violently. An indescribable emotion filled his heart, but he did not have the time to say anything. Even if it was the simplest "thank you," he was carried away by the guard and left the living room, leaving the pair of tender eyes that deeply touched him!

"Miss Murong is still as kind as ever. I am really ashamed. " Luo Hui looked at Xiao Yi's back and a thick killing intent flashed across his eyes. This killing intent was even stronger than Xiao Yi offending him. One should know that Murong Zhiruo was his exclusive property. Whoever touched her would die! Furthermore, she was just a lowly mining slave!

But Miss Murong had always been kind. Luo Hui did not want to lose his elegance in front of her, so he could only endure it for the time being.

"Mr Luo is being too serious. " Murong Zhiruo smiled and said, "Zhiruo's sudden arrival this time was only because father asked me to come and see how the sealed land is progressing. Is there anything I can help with?"

"Miss Murong rest assured. The seal is progressing smoothly. It will be broken in less than a month. At that time, this Luo will definitely inform Miss Murong immediately. "

"That's good. Zhiruo will have to disturb Mr Luo for a period of time. "

"Not at all!" Luo Hui was overjoyed and quickly said, "Miss Murong was willing to lower herself to stay here. It is my fortune. How could I be disturbed?"

Luo Hui said to Murong Zhiruo. He had always thought of it as his exclusive property. With such an excellent opportunity in front of him, he was naturally delighted. Even the matter of killing Xiao Yi had become unimportant.

It had to be said that Murong Zhiruo's temporary stay had indirectly saved Xiao Yi once again.

. . .

In the mining area.

The speed of a martial artist's feet was shockingly fast. Not long after, the guard arrived at the mining area. After throwing Xiao Yi away heavily, he left straight away.

The guard was extremely depressed at this moment. He originally thought that he had made a great contribution, but in the end, he was happy for nothing, and even had to run back and forth. If it wasn't for the fact that Master didn't say the word "kill," perhaps Xiao Yi would have turned into a corpse halfway.

The sound of footsteps soon faded away. Xiao Yi struggled to get up. He endured the pain and crawled to a corner of the ore mine, lying on the ground and breathing heavily.

Along the way, there was a shocking bloody wound.

This was a poor mining area in the outermost region. The rich mining area was still in the center, but there were no slaves working nearby.

After resting for a long time, Xiao Yi gritted his teeth and turned around. He took out the book that had its cover dyed red with blood and started to flip through it.

Basic Introduction clearly explained how to sense spiritual energy, how to absorb spiritual energy, and how to use cultivation techniques to refine spiritual energy.

After flipping through the book for an hour, Xiao Yi memorized all the important points in his heart. His eyes shone with infinite light. At this moment, he was sure that the Asura Divine Spell was a cultivation technique!

It was a cultivation technique inherited from the ancient times!

"According to the book, spiritual energy is the origin of the world, and it is everywhere. If you want to absorb it, you must first sense the spiritual energy. If you have good talent, you will be able to sense it in a few days. If you have bad talent, you might be able to sense it in a few months or years. I wonder how my talent is?"

Xiao Yi struggled to prop himself up. He copied the description of the book and sat up with his legs crossed. His eyes were tightly shut, and his mind was in a state of meditation. He placed himself in an ethereal state.

At this moment, a red light suddenly flashed on Xiao Yi's body. The surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be summoned and became extremely active.

"Hmm? This is spiritual energy? I can sense it so quickly! Could it be that my talent is extremely good?"

A thought flashed through his mind, but Xiao Yi did not dare to be distracted. He immediately guided the spiritual energy into his body according to the book's description.

Everything was difficult at the beginning. The first time was always extremely time-consuming, just like how babies learned to walk. As long as they grasped the method, it would become extremely simple.

Xiao Yi was like this at this moment. The first time he drew the Qi into his body, he seemed to be especially nervous. However, there seemed to be a suction force on his body. The red light dissipated, and a steady flow of Spiritual Qi flowed into his body, rushing into his limbs and bones.

"The speed at which the Spiritual Qi enters my body is so fast! Why is it different from what the book says? Forget it, I don't care anymore! "

Xiao Yi threw away all distracting thoughts and started to channel the spiritual energy into his meridians. After that, he started to circulate it according to the path of the Asura Divine Spell cultivation technique.

The spiritual energy needed to be refined through a specific meridian path before it could be turned into spiritual energy and then stored. When it reached a certain amount, it would undergo a qualitative change and become a true martial artist.

Indeed, Xiao Yi could only be considered a martial arts disciple at this moment, and had yet to truly enter the ranks of martial artists.

The first time he refined spiritual energy was incomparably smooth. It was unknown whether it was because Xiao Yi's talent was extremely good or because the Asura Divine Spell was too magical, but after an hour, a wisp of dark red spiritual energy lay in his sea of vital energy.

The Qi Sea was the place where a martial artist stored their spiritual energy, and it was located below the abdomen.

"Haha! Haha! Martial artists! Martial artist! I can finally become a martial artist!!"

Xiao Yi suddenly laughed wildly, but as he laughed, he left behind a tear that he had never shed before. It slowly flowed on his overjoyed face, as if he was about to let go of all his grievances!

Once upon a time, when faced with bullying and oppression, he could only silently endure it!

Once upon a time, his dignity had been trampled to the point of being worthless! As long as it was a person, they could fiercely stomp on his dignity! Luo Hui was like this! Saber Bro was like this! Even Xiao Yu was the same!

But now, in the future! Everything would change at this moment! Fate! Freedom! He would do the same, take everything back!

"My martial arts is to become stronger! Become stronger! Become stronger! Powerful to the point where no one dares to trample on me!"

"Cultivate! Right! Cultivate with all your might! Only by refining a hundred strands of spirit energy to form a vortex can you become a true martial artist! "

" Martial artist! A high and mighty martial artist! I must become a martial artist! Change everything, and regain control of fate!"

Xiao Yi was so overjoyed that he could not control himself. This time, it took him a long time to enter the state of cultivation. He then began to cultivate crazily, enjoying the incomparable pleasure of increasing his strength bit by bit.

However, Xiao Yi didn't notice that in a corner not far away, a petite figure attracted by the loud laughter was sneakily looking in his direction. After looking at it for a long time, she resolutely turned around and left.
