Awakening

In the city of Qingzhu (Green Bamboo), the Yushui (Rainwater) Lesser World, belonging to the Sky Mountain domain within the human territory.

In a mansion, a five-year-old boy was lying on a bed surrounded by medical devices and glyph formations, creating a large formation array in the room while spiritual stones were everywhere, providing energy.

Outside the room were two men and a woman, one of them wore a doctor's gown and a report in his hand.

"Doctor Wang, how is my little Shaoran?"The woman said with sadness and concern in her voice.

The doctor looked at her with a complicated look and said, "We discovered that your child's innate soul has a mess in its sea of consciousness, causing the sea of consciousness to be suspended, leaving your son unconscious, something that is more normal to happen to a cultivator who fought to the death against a soul expert, because the latter often try to possess their enemy as the last move, but it is unheard of to happen to a little boy like his son, who was playing in the garden, seeing the protection that this house has with the defense array and you and your husband being cultivators at core formation stage, would have noticed if something had slipped into your house after crossing all those defense arrays"

Just as the woman named Lan was going to speak, the man who had not yet said anything interrupted her and said with concern and pain in his voice. "Then doctor Wang Are you telling me that Shaoran's condition is as if someone had tried to possess my son, and now my son can die at any time? Is that what you're trying to tell me, doctor? "

Once he said that, the area where they were began to shake and a beast roar was heard from inside the man, causing the doctor shudder with the man's bloodlust.

"Li Xiong, if you release your aura with Shaoran in the next room while he's in danger, you will know who is in charge in this family, You've understood?"The woman said with an iron grip on the right arm of Li Xiong, her husband, making the pressure emitted by the latter disappear.

"Don't worry darling, I'm calm, it's just that imagining someone else with Shaoran's body has bothered me a bit, you have to calm down and not worry, Shaoran also has my family's legacy, that should protect him" Li Xiong said with love and pain upon seeing his wife's condition.

The Dr. Wang, Seeing the situation and knowing that neither Li Xiong nor Lan Suyin were people he could play with, he explained that Shaoran's situation was not that serious, "You don't have to worry so much Mr. Li and Ms. Lan, although I said before that your son's situation was similar to that, actually, we doctors do not know whether to be surprised by the innate defense of yours son soul or the weakness of the foreign soul.

Dr. Wang paused, hoping that both parents calm down with this new information and went on to explain Li Shaoran's situation "So there's not much to worry about, presently Li Shaoran has undone of the impurities of that foreign soul and has absorbed it, increasing the volume of his soul and purifying it successfully, we didn't want to investigate the process, because as Mr. Li said, this may have something to do with his family's inheritance, and we know how to have discretion on those matters"

Hearing Dr. Wang's words, Li Xiong and his wife Lan Suyin calmed their emotions when they entered the room where Li Shaoran was, finding him sleeping with a smile on his face,as if he were dreaming of something cheerful, without knowing the concerns he had given to his parents.

Within Li Shaoran's consciousness were a child identical to the one in the room lying on the bed and a young man dressed in a kind of ancient robe while releasing an aura of authority as if he were in control of the whole world.

"Big brother, are you leaving now? Can't you stay a little longer?" The boy Li Shaoran said to the young man with hope in his voice.

"I can't, little Shaoran. If I stay longer, your parents could worry too much and that doctor would be in trouble with them" The young man said gently. "So have you remembered everything I have taught you?"

"Yes, big brother Xiwang, I have to be careful with things that seem free or that seem like a gift as happened to that older brother before, I have to be careful with people and not mention your name to anyone" Li Shaoran said with a look of contemplation as he enumerated things with his fingers.

The young man named Xiwang laughed as he watched Li Shaoran think about the things he had taught in this period of time together, at the same time that he thought of his younger brother.

"Well, little Shaoran it's time to say goodbye, but first let me do one thing" When Xiwang said that, he put his hand on Li Shaoran's head forming a kind of rune on his forehead for a few moments before the runes disappeared.

As the runes were forming on Li Shaoran's forehead, his forehead, in the real world, began to glow forming the runes before they disappeared, leaving Li Xiong, Lan Suyin, and Doctor Wang shocked.

Having recorded the runes on Li Shaoran's forehead, Xiwang stroked him head and said goodbye.

"Little Shaoran, if you want us to meet again, you need to get to the True Immortal stage in order to get to where I am" Xiwang said before disappearing from Li Shaoran's consciousness.

Just when Xiwang disappeared, Li Shaoran who was lying on the bed opened his eyes.

When Li Xiong and Lan Suyin saw their son wake up after seven days unconscious, they both looked at him with tears in Lan Suyin's eyes and a sigh of relief from Li Xiong.

"Mommy, why are you crying? Li Shaoran asked upon seeing the tears in his mother's eyes and his haggard appearance for a cultivator in core formation stage.

His parents, hearing his voice, were excited to see that their little one had not changed and remained the same as always, the doctor on the other hand was surprised that just after Li Shaoran's forehead stopped shining, he woke up suddenly.

"It's nothing son, it's just that you had me and your mother worried" Li Xiong said comforting him after seeing his safe and strong mother in that state.

"Doctor Wang, if all is well, could you leave us alone for a while with our son?" Li Xiong said with a face not to accept no for an answer, hinting to the doctor that Li Shaoran's circumstances are confidential.

Dr. Wang, being an experienced doctor with many years of experience, knew that certain things like these, that touch family secrets are something he shouldn't know, for his own good.

Without being offended, considering this as normal, Dr. Wang said. "It's okay, according to the machines, your son is in perfect condition, if they need me for anything else I'll be waiting outside"

Once Dr. Wang left, they were left alone in the Li Xiong room, Lan Suyin and Li Shaoran, staring at each other, until Lan Suyin finally asked the question that everyone expected. "Shaoran, can you tell mommy what happened to you these days?"

"Well, Mommy, I was in the garden doing the exercises you and Dad taught me, when suddenly I found myself in a dark space where I met an older brother"

"And did that older brother do something to you, like wanting to possess your body or something similar?" Li Xiong asked as soon as he heard that someone was in his son's conscience.

"No Dad, that was another one who failed, but according to what the good one told me, it was that the evil man's soul was so weak that mine absorbed his soul instead, then the good older brother helped me with absorption, saying that it was possible that there would be effects or some problem later if it wasn't done well" Li Shaoran said thinking about what Xiwang said to him.

"Well Shaoran, if you think everything is fine, we'll listen to you, for now, you can go to the living room to watch tv while they pick up the medical devices and the arrays formations from your room,¿de acuerdo?" said Lan Suyin, not wanting to torment her son with questions just when he had just woken up.

Li Shaoran, hearing what his mother said, got out of bed, careful not to break anything and he left the room, leaving his parents talking to Dr. Wang about medical costs.

On the way from his room to the living room, he discovered that his house, which was normally empty just with him, his parents and his father's companion beasts, it was filled with people dressed in white who were moving at high speed with medical devices, formation disks and spirit stones in their hands.

When he went to the living room, he began to think about what Xiwang had told him about the talent he had since that incident. "Then, according to what big brother Xiwang told me, I should ask dad or grandpa about martial arts techniques that I can train without being at any level of cultivation"

"If I remember correctly, grandpa gave dad a martial arts manual that belonged to the family for a long time, I will ask if he can leave it to me to practice"

When he reached the living room, on the sofa, he found a tiger-skinned cat, with its fangs protruding from its mouth,sleeping on the couch while wagging his tail, although the living room and sofa were huge, the cat occupied more than half of the couch.

Once he saw the cat sleeping, he approached his face and began to look at him.

concluding that the cat had not noticed he was at his side, jumped very carefully towards the cat, falling on the latter's back, alarming him. After fall onto the cat's back, Li Shaoran began to snuggle up with him.

When the cat noticed something familiar snuggling on its back, showed no surprise, having become accustomed to that intruder for years. Noticing that familiar smell, he let him snuggle up on his back,before getting up, throwing him onto the couch, before licking Li Shaoran's face.

"Taiyang, how have you been these days without me?" Li Shaoran said to the cat,the cat understood what he said, before catching Li Shaoran with his mouth taking care not to hurt him and throw him on his own back,Li Shaoran, knowing what was coming next, grabbed the fur of Taiyang tightly, before the latter started running around the living room.

After about thirty or forty minutes playing in the room, Li Shaoran lay down on the sofa with Taiyang and turned on the television looking at what had happened these days.

"Space pirate Hu Bao, a cultivator in peak stage of Foundation Establishment, has escaped from one of the four prison planets in the northern sector of the Sky Mountain domain."

"If you are going to travel through space or know someone who will, we recommend hiring bodyguards to ensure a safe trip. Due to information provided to us by the military police, we may inform you that Hu Bao is a cultivator of peak stage in the foundation establishment stage with a lot of experience in life-and-death battles, therefore, we recommend that the bodyguards you hire be in the core formation stage or experts in peak stage of foundation establishment. " said the presenter in the program "Danger in the cultivation world".

"Another space pirate is on the loose, Taiyang, let's look at the news channel on pills and elixirs to see if they have brought out something new"

" The pill company "New Firmament" introduces a new elixir to strengthen and purify the body at a lower price and with better effects than those currently on the market."

"Remember that New Firmament company belongs to Master Nangong, who a hundred years ago successfully created the fertility pill, this pill being one of the greatest contributions to humanity and to the world of cultivation in general, increasing the probability of pregnancy in cultivators, helping cultivators in qi condensation, foundation establishment, core formation and the seniors in nascent soul stage, something that was a big problem for cultivators in ancient times, with cultivators in higher stages without having descendants or with a few "

Said the presenter, before she started an interview with a manager of the company "New Firmament".

"I have to ask dad to buy me that new elixir, to check if it's true that it's better than the one I'm using now, what do you say Taiyang, that you want that elixir too? You know those solutions don't work on you, you are a Dao beast in the core formation stage and and that's for people like me, who haven't started cultivating yet"

After a few minutes lying on the sofa with Taiyang, Li Shaoran fell asleep on the sofa with Taiyang warming him with his fur, as Li Xiong and Lan Suying looked at them with a smile, from the door of the living room.
