As soon as we returned home we sat in a room that is commonly used by our family.
Before I can ask a servant where our mom may have gone, a sound is sounded near the door. Mom and a man very much like her are looking at us.
The man can be said to be a little effeminate not only because of his face but also because of his long black hair, if it weren't for the fact that he was wearing men's clothes I could have thought of him as a girl.
"Mom, where were you?." Hui'er ran to Mom and hugged her.
"I was taking care of a little thing. So, how was the awakening?"
"It worked, but Yuyu insists on saying that my spirit is rare, even though it is more like a small bird."
Hey, Hey, are you ignoring the fact that someone is unknown by the side?
The man also looked a little uncomfortable when being treated like a wind by the pair, so we just looked at each other.
"Mom, who is he?." I couldn't bear to look at the man's sorry state any more, so I asked Mom after approaching me.
"Oh, him?. He's nobody, treat him like air all right, dear." Even I felt uncomfortable for him now. The man has his forehead curved.
"You who asked me to see my nieces and now you want to treat me like a wind?. I can not understand you... I am Shui Mao, your mother's brother and also your uncle, you can call me Uncle Mao." The man couldn't bear to be treated like that and ended up taking a step forward to introduce himself. Hui'er nodded and continued to talk to mom.
Feeling a little sorry for my uncle, I approached. "I'm Li Yue, nice to meet you, Uncle Mao." I give him a small smile. Uncle Mao is really like my Mom, are they twins too?
The man was pleasantly surprised to look at me, I even saw his eyes shining a little.
"At least one of the daughters is not as cruel as you, sister."
"Uh. Did you say something, Uncle Mao?." I feel like the so-called Uncle Mao has whispered something.
"No, nothing." Uncle Mao looked normal when he sat down. Hui'er came over and sat next to me, while Mom went to the side.
"Did you know you were a little uneducated over there Hui'er?. You must introduce yourself properly for the visits." I pinch Hui'er a little on the cheek, my sister looked kind of pathetic.
"You talk about me but you don't do the presentation properly either, you always introduce yourself using the gestures that men do." Hui'er murmured with red cheeks, I looked at her a little and Hui'er was quiet at the time.
"Sorry about that, Uncle Mao. So what did you come for this visit for?" I ask politely in the place of Mom who is preparing tea for everyone.
"I didn't have the opportunity to meet you so your mother me forc... Cof ... invited me to come and meet you." Uncle Mao whispered a dangerous word just now.
I turned to look at Mom who was still the same, preparing tea with a smile.
The conversation continued as normal, luckily Mom and Hui'er finally got into it after seeing that we were talking calmly.
Some strange topics arose where Mom said that Uncle Mao is recognized by the title of Goddess of Water, I already knew where this was going but I couldn't stop Hui'er's question in time.
It seems that Uncle Mao at some point in his adventure was forced to dress up as a woman and after a few struggles wearing that outfit he was recognized by that title.
The "Goddess of Water" disappeared after her only appearance which left many men heartbroken.
After the conversation got into that topic he was completely silent, only after Hui'er asked if he could dress up as a Water Goddess did he have a reaction. I only managed to look at uncle Mao with pity and understanding.
He sweated coldly when he denied it. Mom with a smile said that he can. Uncle Mao got up and said he had something to do but was stopped by Mom.
In the end he was forced to dress and I must say that he really looks like a girl like that. My first meeting with this Uncle Mao ended up becoming a parade where even I was forced to participate.
After everything was over Uncle Mao flew away from our house totally discouraged, I don't think we will see this Uncle Mao for a long time.
...
My words were wrong, we found Uncle Mao earlier than I expected.
Two days after we awoke our spirits, Mom gathered all 9 herbs and found a good place to do the spirit revival ritual.
And Uncle Mao was there to make sure everything went well. I sincerely apologized to him when we met. Uncle Mao messed up my hair with with a distant and empty look.
Mom's awakening ritual was simple. After she consumed all 9 herbs and took the awakening potion, a great deal of energy from heaven and earth was gathered in her.
If it weren't for Uncle Mao to be protecting me and Hui'er, maybe we could die here. The amount of energy from heaven and earth was enough to match someone's attack in the 3 core Realm, it showed how strong Uncle Mao when dealing with this easily.
Above Mom head a blue drop-shaped stone appeared. The Spirit of Mom was not as impressive as ours, but it is also not bad, it is an object type spirit called the spirit of Saphira Aquatic. Mom's spirit is a Rank 8.
If this material were not a spirit, people would be able to fight to the death to get this Saphira Aquatica, because it is a very rare material for those with a water element, so rare that these water users call it the Divine Saphira.
Fortunately everything worked out for Mom. Uncle Mao was curious about this method of cultivation but Mom did not give it to him. She said would only give it to him if Uncle Mao dressed up as a girl for 3 months, which Uncle Mao refused and fled the scene to avoid another conversation.
After returning home, we decided to begin to understand the spirits and their methods of cultivation. Mom and Hui'er seemed extremely excited to start. I was calmer but I'm also looking forward to getting stronger.
================================================== ======
It took me 7 days to understand about Li Xue and another 7 days for the Seed of Life. Another 9 days were used to learn about Li Xue's cultivation method and 8 days to understand that of the Seed of Life.
Taking so long to understand a spirit is normal, especially when spirits are of high rank. I was still quick for already having experience, being the second to learn about my spirits.
The first to finish was Mom who even went into cultivation behind closed doors for this, something that Hui'er and I can't do because we don't have enough cultivation.
Mom took 9 days to learn about her spirit and his cultivation technique.
Hui'er took the longest, taking 27 days to understand her spirit and another 33 days to learn about his cultivation method.
And to tell the truth she was even faster than in my second life where I took 3 months for a Rank 9 spirit and I was still called a genius. Hui'er took about 2 months for a Divine Rank spirit.
Anyway, my Spirits are even more than I imagined they were.
Each spirit upon awakening has a special ability, whether active or passive; the higher the spirit's rank the better that special ability is.
Mom's spirit for example has the special ability to improve someone's understanding of the water element. Mom is already a peak cultivator so it was not very useful, but she learned to use her knowledge and understanding with that special skill. This makes it possible for Mom to easily teach a disciple or a random person to understand the principles of water, allowing the person to become a powerful water cultivator in the future.
But Yanyan is a divine spirit and came not with one and yes with two special abilities. Her second special ability is called the Reborn, the ability allows the little phoenix to never die until Hui'er dies. The combination of these two special abilities is very strong, even if she dies from consuming too much fire after a while Yanyan is reborn.
I also learned a lot about my spirit. Li Xue for example has the special ability of independent cultivation, she does not need me to cultivate her method, she will cultivate alone and will become stronger over time. Even if I don't do anything I will still be strong.
The only defect of this ability is that Li Xue will only cultivate the cultivation related to it, the seed of life does not have this special ability, so if I want the seed of life to grow, I will still have to cultivate her method.
The special ability of the seed of life too it is also strong. Her special ability allows her to convert any energy obtained into in essence of wood. Not only does this also have a second special ability called growth, the seed of life is still in its initial state and this ability allows it to evolve as spirit.
In understanding my two spirits, I realized that Li Xue can be considered a Divine spirit while the seed of life because of her second special ability can also become a divine spirit.
So far my smile of happiness has not diminished, I did not imagine that I would have two spirits so incredible.
Understanding the spirit took 7 days, but understanding the method of cultivation that the spirit has took a little longer. Fortunately, with my experience, I was able to understand in a short time the methods of cultivation of my two spirits.
================================================== ======
Floating in the air is Li Xue with her eyes closed, a gentle energy has entered the body of the female spirit that looks more like snow than anything else.
On the Lotus-legged floor is Li Yue, also with her eyes closed. Floating in front of it is a green seed, the seed is also absorbing a energy into itself.
After the two spirits absorbed that energy, something seemed to loosen up within them.
Li Yue opened his eyes slowly.
