10 Five years later ... Awakening the spirit.

A girl with long black hair can be seen in a house next to a pond. She seems to be around 5 or 6 years old, she is wearing a white outfit with black ornaments.

"Muhehehehe." But nothing is more strange than the fact that she is laughing strangely when looking at the various items on the table in front of her.

Yes, that girl is Li Yue.

(Pov Li Yue.)

"The day has finally come ... My spirit awakening." I scream softly, I was afraid someone would hear my scream but I'm also very excited to contain it, that's why it came out so strange.

It has been 5 years since my chaotic birthday where I learned how helpless I am, since that day I have been gathering desperately all the items needed for my awakening at the age of 6, I cannot waste any more time.

The strength that my mom and dad showed us that day. The strength that our enemies can reach. All of this is only motivating me to be stronger.

Getting all of these items was not easy, some of the non-dangerous ones I had to give up on something to achieve like that day when I decided to share the same room as Hui'er just to get that item.

Other items were also a bit tricky to get, some of them are not even common in this world, luckily my family is the city's controls one and also one of the strongest families in the empire. We are so strong that we are facing the empire and they cannot deal with us ...

Anyway, the most difficult item to obtain was the nucleus of a spiritual beast, it is not difficult to be obtained by my family but mom didn't let me have one, because the kernel is a danger for those who have not yet started cultivating and can even cause the death of a high level cultivator if they ingest it.

So mom didn't want to leave one in my hand. For my happiness in these 6 years I showed enough intelligence for her to give me one of these nuclei on my 6th birthday that happened yesterday.

She is still worried so the nucleus has been sealed, unable to release any energy and not hurting me, maybe even if I ingest it is likely that the seal will prevent it from hurting me. Fortunately, this will not interfere with what I want to do.

The items on the table beyond the core are: A small bottle of blood from a spiritual animal, a small brush, a small knife that has a strange energy around it, a small bottle of green water, a light blue pill and two small empty bottles .

I took the nucleus of the spiritual beast and the knife that has a strange energy surrounding it, a small white cloth was placed on the bottom, I lightly scraped the nucleus allowing small pieces of particles to fall on the cloth, the knife cut the nucleus as easily as tofu.

I took the two empty bottles and opened them then brought the bottle with spiritual animal blood next to the brush, opened the bottle and dipped the brush in it soaking it with blood, circled the brush now soaked in blood inside the empty bottle leaving it totally red inside, I did it on the two bottles.

I threw the small particles of the core into the two bottles now red, a quarter of the small empty bottle was filled with blood and pieces of particles. The blood slowly trickled down, soaking the particles with blood.

In the same white cloth that I cut the nucleus I put the blue pill, with the part that holds the knife more specifically the thicker part, I crushed the pill until it became powder. I divided this powder in two and put them in the same bottle that had the blood and particles.

Finally I opened the bottle with green water and filled the rest of the two bottles and closed them.

"Now to finish." With a smile I shook the two closed bottles for exactly 9 seconds.

"Complete." The two bottles were now different from before, the liquid now instead of green is a dark blue with several small shiny bubbles inside.

"Now we just have to go to Hui'er." I have an anxious smile on my face, anxious to start the awakening of the spirit.

This whole process would be unnecessary in my second life, on the 6th birthday someone in the realm of essence dips their essence in the child and it will awaken their spirit.

Getting these items is complicated, the awakening is more painful and especially the taste of it is very bad ... Unless you are in the same situation that I am hardly anyone will use this method.

Leaving the hut, I ran through the big yard towards the big house, there weren't many servants around here but the few that I passed greeted me. Inside the house there were even more employees who greeted me with respect again.

I opened one of the doors and entered the room. Hui'er and I still use the same room, she refuses to change. As Hui'er is still taking classes on how to access the blood memories it will take some time, so I have to calm my anxiety.

I sat crouched on my bed to calm my mind.

The time passed until the door of the room was opened when the sound of light footsteps sounded in my ears, I opened my eyes slowly and in front of me a beautiful extremely cute angelic face appeared in my vision, the bright purple eyes and the life emanating from her makes anyone feel happy.

"Hui'er, you took too long." I couldn't help myself with that cute face, I squeezed her cheek slightly which made her eyes a little bit teary.

"Yuyu arrives, I'm different from you, I'm not that talented." Hui'er grew up well in these five years, his long red hair will soon reach his waist and his face is maturing little by little, I as his twin sister also grew up and with each passing day I get more beautiful which is makes me a little sad.

Not even the men's clothes that I managed to hide from my mom make me look like a man, I'm afraid that when I grow up my beauty won't be able to be hidden by dressing like a man like the many stories I read.

"You are not talented?. Do you know how you are offending all the geniuses in this world?. I just had more luck and that's why I got it first, until our brother took 3 months before he could access all the memories and you got it in a few hours. Don't forget that you are learning mom's sword style faster than me." I say as I squeeze her cheeks tighter. What I said is not a lie, she is one of the greatest geniuses, I have never seen anyone as talented as she was in my two lives.

About the style of sword that our mother is teaching us is a skill suitable only for women and this is making it difficult for me to learn.

"You're just learning so slowly because you don't like that style." I had already released her cheek when she murmured rubbing her cheek.

"Stop it, I completed what I wanted so now we can start that." I say with a smirk to Hui'er as I hand the little bottle over to her.

Hui'er looked at the bottle in shock, as soon as it recovered Hui'er hastily took the bottle from my hand.

"Is that what you said can make us strong?" Hui'er looked at the bottle with pleasure.

"Yes, it can make us stronger but it does not work miracles, as soon as you take it we will start training together every day, are you ready for this?" I seriously ask Hui'er, if she doesn't want to be a cultivator she should reject this, as it is a cruel world.

"You're going to take it no matter what I say, aren't you?" Hui'er also sat down seriously, she looked at the bottle when asking that question.

"Yea." I don't want to be weak anymore, all my lives were like that ... I don't want it anymore.

"I will not let you do everything yourself." Hui'er looked at me seriously and smiled, she opened the bottle and drank it all at once, she sat on in lotus on my bed.

I smiled when I saw that ... I really love this sister of mine. I take my bottle open and drink it all in one gulp, I also sit on in lotus.

Inside my body a violent but soft energy ran everywhere, as I am connected with Hui'er I know that she is also feeling the same.

The violent energy flowed throughout the body, the pain accompanied us throughout the process, fortunately the pain was bearable. The energy went all over the body until it started to fade away, but the pain was not over.

An intense headache started to occur to me, cold sweat ran down my body. The pain continued for several minutes when it gradually stopped.

I opened my eye to look at Hui'er, she also opened her eyes slowly. Hui'er is sweating all over his body, I imagine that I am also in that state. I smile slightly when I wipe the sweat off her cheek.

"You did Hui'er well, we can rest now, tomorrow we will start training." Awakening steals all of our energy so it is normal for us to be tired after it.

"Yuyu, my mouth tastes really bad ...." Hui'er murmured as he took something from ayour clothes and put it in his mouth.

"... Hui'er ... Isn't that my pink heart?." I ask shocked. The bad taste started to appear in my mouth, that was the candy I prepared for this ... I was going to cut it in half and give one to Hui'er, but she ate it whole ....

"HUI'ER ..... I WAS GOING GIVE YOU A PIECE, WHY DID YOU EAT IT ALL OF IT?." I can't stand it when I look at her with red eyes, I also grab her shoulders and swing.

Without that candy the taste will continue for 24h ..... Hui'er is looking at me curiously... She doesn't even feel remorse ...

Haah... I can't stand it anymore and I close my eyes in despair ... 24 hours with this taste ....

As I think of the suffering that I will feel in that time I feel something soft and moist touching my lips, a smell of flowers appeared in my nose, I open my eyes in surprise to see that Hui'er had his lips on mine.

I tried to say something but my mouth is sealed. The small space I left when trying to speak was enough for something to pass.

Hui'er removed his lips from mine. A mild taste appeared and withdrew all the bad taste in my mouth ... That was the piece of the candy I prepared.

When I realized what happened my face turned red .... Yes ... I never did anything like that with a girl, judge how you want ...

"I saw mom and dad doing this once and I was curious. But I didn't think it would be that good." Hui'er said when his little tongue licked a piece of her lips, his too finger lightly touched his lips..

I was completely paralyzed by what happened and I couldn't say anything, I was very shocked.

"Hui'er, you mustn't do this anymore ... This is something that only mom and dad can do." When my mind recovered I remembered that she is still a child so I told her this, yet I feel my face so hot that I couldn't stand it, I got out of my bed, ran to Hui'er's bed and hid.

"Yuyu?." I heard Hui'er's voice when I felt something shaking the cover in which I was hiding.

"I don't want to talk to you right now, Hui'er." I don't understand why, but my mind is confused, my body started to heat up little by little ... This is strange, as much as I never did that, I shouldn't have this reaction.

My mind just got more and more confused when without knowing it I started to lose consciousness little by little.

Even without conscience I feel my body that was hot getting cold .... With every second that passes, my body got cold ... More and more cold .... So cold that I imagined it was freezing ...

I tried desperately to wake up, but nothing worked ... Not only is my body cold, I feel until my mind freezing ... And my thoughts getting slower and slower ....

After a while I didn't feel anything anymore ... The cold was so much that I didn't feel anything ...

....I will die ?...

My thoughts got worse and worse to the point of almost losing my thoughts .... My mind went absolutely blank ...

Until a warmth welcomed me. A golden flame was in my mind ...

The heat was strong but even he was not enough to fight the cold he was feeling, he eased just a little before he was completely overcome by the cold ... The cold again started to dominate, this time stronger. This time I was sure I would be completely overwhelmed by the cold.

But again, a heat appeared again, just to result in the same it and the cold came back stronger ... That heat only made me suffer more ...

But even suffer was overcome by the cold ... I didn't feel anything anymore ....

At least until a new heat appeared ... This heat was totally different from the others ... A black fire ... The fire was so strong that it took the form of a black sun ...

But even though he was strong, the cold too is.... Fortunately the heat was strong enough to ward off a little the cold and allow me to regain my consciousness little by little ...

As I regain my consciousness, I feel that something is suffering me as well .... That ... HUI'ER.

The thought of Hui'er being in pain was enough to completely regain my conscience and get out of the sea of ​​ice.

As soon as I took control of my mind, my first action was to connect with hers. Somehow I feel that the cold started to disappear from me and the heat entered me and everything was calmer, I didn't feel any more pain ... A relief without presence consumed me when I finally fell asleep.
