Chapter C3

Ling Family's Martial Arts Practice Field.

As the head of the three great families in Lingyun Town, the Ling Family naturally had their own personal martial arts arena, which was where the disciples of the Ling Family usually trained.

"Haha, everyone, quickly come take a look. He is the number one genius of our Ling Family, one that only appears once in a thousand years. Ling Xiao is already eleven years old, and is even at the seventh level of the Body Refinement Realm."

"Ai, Xiao Di, big brother's heart has been feeling sad for the past few years. In the past few years, you have treated Ling Yun very well, but this brat relied on his age to come and find trouble with you. Everyone can see that this brat has a grudge against you." Although Ling Chen had frequently teased Ling Chen when he was young, he was still the oldest. He always liked his family's younger brother a lot, and no matter what, he would not let Ling Xiao go, not to mention that Ling Xiao was very young at that time.

"Brother Chen, it's okay, I haven't trained for nothing these past few years. Look at my strength now." With that said, Ling Xiao picked up a nearby boulder.

This boulder should be more than a thousand kilograms right? Although Ling Xiao said that he had a lot of strength, but seeing his little brother who effortlessly lifted the boulder, Ling Chen felt that he should definitely not underestimate Ling Xiao. This guy was indeed well-hidden. After the slight shock, Ling Chen finally relaxed. Although a few years had passed and Ling Xiao was still at the seventh level of the Body Refinement Realm, not everyone could bully him.

Ling Xiao was the first person to break through to the seventh level of the Body Refinement Realm three years ago. At that time, not only was the Ling Family shaken, even the entire Lingyun Town was stirred up. He was only at the seventh level of the Body Refinement Realm at the age of eight. The entire Lingyun Town knew that the Ling Family had produced such a genius.

That same year, the Ling Family spread another piece of shocking news, which was even related to Ling Xiao. It was that genius Ling Xiao had suddenly fainted while cultivating one night. After that, he had never improved on the path of martial arts, and he was often sickly.

At first, no one believed it. How could such a stunning genius wither just like that? At that time, the Li family, Du family and other families had all come to see Ling Xiao frequently, and the Ling family had also invited a famous doctor to treat him.

It was said that the famous doctor at that time also said that Ling Xiao could very well not live past fourteen years of age given the current situation. To the Ling Family and Ling Xiao who carried such a huge burden, this was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue. After that, the Du Family's relationship with the Ling Family would not be as good as before.

Gradually, Ling Xiao began to fade away from people's line of sight, and even Ling Zhentian had secretly looked for Ling Xiao at that time, asking him if he was deliberately hiding it. From Ling Zhentian's point of view, this son was very unusual. His intelligence was extremely high and he could easily learn anything.

But in the end, it was Ling Xiao who had personally checked it out for him, and was unable to find anything out. This time, Ling Zhentian panicked, and even Third Uncle and Xiao Bo were helpless to do anything. Did the heavens really want to destroy my Ling family? He had clearly sent an eternally unheard-of genius, yet he was unable to cultivate. From this, one could imagine how big of a blow the Ling family had suffered!

In his own room, Ling Xiao sat on his bed with his legs crossed. "Sigh, I still can't do it. Damn it, what's going on?"

Therefore, Ling Xiao had a bold idea at that time. One day, when I, Ling Xiao, am above and above the Nine Heavens, my Ling Family will be the strongest family in the world, and I will bring my family and my brothers to stand at the pinnacle of this world.

Heaven and Earth, let me gallop, the vast sky, controlled by me, together with the United States, the nine heavens together!

"Don't tell me that this is the fate of me, Ling Xiao? Could it be that I, Ling Xiao, can only live for another year? "No, no, no …"

"My life belongs to the heavens. If the heavens send me, I will defy the heavens. Only by making myself stronger can I live in my own destiny."

Now, the Innate Qi was slowly flowing in his body, but Ling Xiao was serious. Every time the Innate Qi circulated to his Dantian, it would stop moving and disappear without a trace, right, every time the Innate Qi entered his Dantian, it would become a strange hour, as if it had never happened before.

After that, Ling Xiao also asked his Third Uncle and Xiao Bo about it, but other than finding out that it was the problem with his dantian, he didn't discover anything else. This made Ling Xiao a little helpless. Although Ling Xiao's talent was outstanding, to the current him, he could only stare with dry eyes.

Night fell, and Ling Xiao, who had cultivated for a long time but had no results, stood up. He knew that this was not an option and might as well just accept it. Today was 15 years old, and the moon was especially round and bright. Ling Xiao who was calmly walking in the garden looked at the stars and the moon in the sky and gradually fell asleep.

In his dreams, Ling Xiao discovered that he was in a misty place. There were no stars, no moon, no people or objects here, only a faint purple light. Not long after, the golden light became stronger and stronger. It slowly turned into golden dots, and the previously motionless space also started to spin.

In the chaotic space, after an unknown amount of time, the purple light finally turned into a ball of light and floated in the air, slowly rotating.

When the cloud reached a certain point, the golden light grew brighter and brighter. The purple light coiled around its waist, finally forming a Taiji fish. The Taiji diagram continued to spin in this way. When it reached the limit of its rotation, it was already too late to see anything. Slowly, the seven-colored glazed pearl was lying there silently.

The seven-colored bead continued to spin at a very slow speed. Time seemed to have stopped, it was quiet, and it was strangely quiet. It was as if it had existed for an eternity, as if it had only lasted for an instant. At a certain moment, the seven-colored glass bead also exploded, turning into powder. Some of the dust slowly rotated, and the dust got bigger and bigger. Eventually, it formed continents, and some formed planets. It was still the same silence as death. After an unknown amount of time, water started to appear slowly, and then life started to appear. In the end, humans also appeared.

At this time, all kinds of large flying beasts and humans were fighting each other. For the sake of the survival of all races, for the sake of space and resources, all kinds of cultivators who practiced all kinds of arts slowly appeared in the competition, including formation masters, alchemists, refiners, refiners, soul controllers, mages, puppeteers … The entire world was flourishing, but the battles never stopped. In the end, some of the most powerful existences appeared.

They had no choice but to give in. In the end, under the lead of that person, all of the strong warriors moved together and used their powerful mana to forcefully squeeze many continents together, and then gathered the large planets together. They set up the most powerful seal, and the abnormally large amount of spirit energy made these places suitable for the survival of living beings.

In memory of that great being, many statues of him had been built, standing on the largest planet alongside other ancient beings of all races. At the same time, all races began to pass down their magic for their descendants to cultivate. This allowed their descendants to compete with the Heavens and enjoy more of their lifespan, slowly forming three of the largest continents. The smaller continents were all attached to these three continents.

Later on, in order to develop and cultivate more rationally, the great being and the great powers had spent their entire lives painstakingly condensing their blood and sweat, which allowed the three continents to once again be divided into high and low levels. When the lower level cultivators reached a certain level of cultivation, they could advance to a higher level.

"Ah …" The moment Ling Xiao woke up, he felt an immeasurable amount of strength ripping away his spirit and soul. Ling Xiao, who had just woke up, once again, gloriously sank into a deep sleep. When the pain had reached its peak, Ling Xiao's Dantian began to emit a faint purplish golden light.

This time, he slept soundly.

There were many people gathered in Ling Xiao's room, even Li Yunlong and Li Meng Ru were present. Everyone saw Ling Xiao's fingers suddenly tremble, and knew that this was the sign that Ling Xiao was about to wake up. Beside the bed, Liu Mengying's face was pale and weak.

Before Ling Xiao fell asleep, Liu Mengying had discovered him through his telepathy, and he was so scared that his soul almost left his body. Now that his precious son was about to wake up, the exhausted Liu Mengying finally couldn't take it anymore and fainted on the bedside. Seeing such a haggard Liu Mengying, Ling Zhentian very tiredly instructed his servants to take care of Madam for a rest.

"Un …" Slowly opening his eyes, felt a sharp pain from the light. After a while, he got used to it and looked at his familiar friends and relatives, then at the servants supporting his mother's back, then at his father's roaring black eyes and then at the teary Li Mengru. Looking at these people, no matter how strong Ling Xiao was, he could not help but shed tears.

"Alright, alright. Since Xiao'er is fine now, everyone should leave for now. Let Xiao'er have a good rest. Men, prepare some porridge for Young Master." Ling Zhentian reacted and immediately arranged everything.

"Xiao'er, you rest first. Remember to come find me tomorrow!" Brother Yun Long, little Meng Ru, you guys are resting here too, it's been hard on you guys these few days. "

Little Meng Ru reluctantly followed her father and left Ling Xiao's room.
