Yuanxiao held the Apocalypse Pearl in his palm, turning it gently and playing with it, when he suddenly felt something strange.
This bead is not round. When I turned it to a certain position just now, I felt a little concave.
Because the bead is almost transparent, it is not easy to observe its appearance, and the depression is very small, so it has not been discovered.
Yuanxiao gently turned the Apocalypse Pearl and, relying on the sense of touch of his fingers, found the location of the depression again. It was a small depression, much smaller than a sesame seed. It was difficult to see it with the naked eye, but it could be felt with the pad of his finger.
Yuanxiao adjusted his position and looked at the concave place without blinking. He found that the faint mist that occasionally appeared around the beads was slowly emanating from the concave place.
Could there be a secret hidden within this tiny bead? What exactly are these faint mists? Where do they come from?
As he watched, Yuanxiao suddenly felt dizzy, and then he felt as if his consciousness was being pulled out of his body and attracted by the depression of the Apocalypse Pearl.
Yuanxiao suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head and couldn't help but groan, and then the pulling force stopped abruptly.
Yuanxiao quickly turned his eyes away, not daring to stare at the depression on the bead any longer.
What I just experienced was terrifying. What was that attraction? Why did my head hurt so much? Why did I feel like my consciousness was about to leave my body? These were all questions.
If only Brother Sikong Zhaiyue were still alive, he would be able to answer this question for me. Or even if he couldn't answer it, he would at least point me in the right direction.
Now I can only figure it out on my own. Just as my brother said, some problems may require reaching a certain level. Only after the practice reaches a certain level can they be solved.
Yuanxiao was still frightened, so he put away the beads and let go of the question for the time being.
The two arrangements that Brother Zhaiyue had made at home before, which brought in the yin and the yang, made the place as warm as spring. My father and mother who lived here could also live longer and be immune to all diseases.
The Heaven, Earth, and Human Defense Formation could withstand at least three fatal attacks from those above the Nascent Soul stage and below the Mahayana stage, which made Yuan Xiao feel much more at ease. His father and mother were healthy and safe at home, so he had one less thing to worry about while he was away.
Two days later, the day agreed to set off for Yunhai City arrived.
Not only Yuanxiao and Xiaoying, but also a little fat boy in the town, Hu Lai, a total of three people went to participate in the Yunhaimen audition.
Hu Lai's family is considered wealthy in the town. His parents are good at business and they feed this kid like a fat boy. It's just that his parents have little education, so they can only be local rich people in the town. Otherwise, they would not have named their child Hu Lai. This name really means Hu Lai!
Hu Lai's family is rich and he has been to Yunhai City many times, even to Baiyun City. He happened to see a cultivator flying in the sky with a sword and was extremely envious. So he begged his parents to let him take part in the audition, dreaming that one day he could also become a flying cultivator.
This time, Yunhai Sect was selecting outer disciples, and all candidates would eventually gather in Yunhai City. However, Yuanxiao and the other two didn't need to go directly to Yunhai City; they could simply go to the relatively nearby reception point in Ping'an County.
Because there are many young men and women participating in the competition, and they are scattered within a thousand miles of Yunhai City, Yunhaimen has set up reception points in the surrounding counties where people can register.
Wait until the deadline and then bring all the candidates who have arrived to Yunhai City at once.
Hu Lai's family arranged a carriage and a driver to take them directly to Ping'an County. Hu Lai invited Xiaoying and Yuanxiao to go with him. They both knew this little fat boy well, so they agreed. The adults were also happy to have them as companions.
Hu Lai is a sweet-talker who knows how to flatter and, crucially, give gifts. He's learned a lot of business from his parents. He's just a slick talker, but he doesn't have any bad intentions.
If you stay in one place all day, you may not feel at home, but if you are far away from home, meeting people from your hometown will feel particularly close to you.
This time, the three of them were going to Yunhai City, which was already a very far place. If they were lucky enough to pass the selection and go to Yunhai Gate, they would be even further away from their hometown.
When children are away from home, if they have a fellow villager who can look after them and comfort them, they will at least not feel so lonely and helpless.
Hu Lai brought a lot of luggage, supposedly containing everything from food and drinks to entertainment, and he dumped it all onto the carriage. Xiaoying only took two cloth bags, while Yuanxiao put everything in his storage ring.
I could have gone to the Lantern Festival empty-handed, but in order not to shock others, I just found a small cloth bag and carried it on my shoulder.
We are about to set off.
Hu Lai's parents pulled the fat boy over and told him, "Speak nicely and give lots of gifts. If you're not chosen, you should still come back happy. Just think of it as a trip out. We have enough food, clothes, and money at home. In a few years, when you take over the family business, it will still be the best in town!"
"Xiaoying, protect yourself. If you are not selected, just come back safely together!" After Xu Kai said this, he left Xiaoying and her daughter alone and walked straight to Yuanxiao and said, "Boy, I can't see you now, and I can't take care of you. If possible, take care of her outside!" Then he gently hit Yuanxiao's shoulder and walked away.
"Uncle Xu, don't worry! I will take good care of Xiaoying!" After hearing this, Xu Kai suddenly felt worried again.
What if this pig comes to eat cabbage again? What a sin!
"Son, we believe that you will be selected! Mom and Dad are waiting for your good news at home. If you can achieve success in your studies, Mom and Dad will be happier at home!" Yuanxiao's parents held Yuanxiao's hands and encouraged him again and again.
"Don't worry, Dad and Mom, even if there are difficulties, they can't stop me!"
Hu Lai, Yuanxiao and Xiaoying jumped onto the carriage one after another. The coachman raised his whip and set off!
As soon as they settled in the car, Hu Lai unpacked a package, poured out a large pile of nuts and snacks, and said, "Let's eat together. It's good to sleep after eating. We'll be there soon after a good sleep."
Yuanxiao jokingly said, "Why are you so fat?"
The three of them didn't hesitate and just started eating the snacks. Hu Lai often went to Ping'an County, so this road was no longer new to him. After eating, he lay down and fell asleep.
Yuanxiao and Xiaoying would occasionally peek out the window to admire the scenery outside. Places they had never been to always felt new.
Sakura and Yuanxiao are quite familiar with each other, and precisely because of that, Sakura feels that Yuanxiao has changed a lot.
Not only did his skin improve and he became more handsome, but he also exuded an indescribable aura that made people feel refreshed and comfortable. The closer you got, the more obvious this feeling became.
But the intensity of this aura she felt was not always constant. For example, now in the carriage, the two of them were very close to each other, but now this aura was relatively weak.
But last time at the gate of the fenced yard, when Xiaoying handed the crispy dates to Yuanxiao, the comfortable and refreshing atmosphere was felt very strongly.
Yuanxiao himself actually didn't know about the changes in aura that Sakura discovered, or he didn't notice or discover them.
Those who are involved are often confused, while those who are on the sidelines can see things more clearly.
If one must say what the difference is between Yuanxiao now and when he was at the gate of the fenced yard, it is that when he was at the gate of the fenced yard, Yuanxiao carried the Revelation Pearl on his body. But now in the carriage, Yuanxiao put the Revelation Pearl in his storage ring.
What exactly is this mysterious aura? And how does it relate to the Apocalypse Pearl?
