For people on Douluo Continent, the age of six is an important moment that determines the fate of life.
It has been six years since Neuvillette came to this world.
Today is the important moment for him to awaken his martial soul.
Unlike ordinary civilians who awaken their martial souls, the time when they awaken their martial souls is not necessarily their sixth birthday, but unified on a certain day of the year. The deacons of the Martial Soul Hall help awaken their martial souls.
Large families or elders with spirit masters can help children awaken their spirits when they are six years old. Of course, wealthy commoners can also go to the Martial Soul Hall to awaken their spirits with gold spirit coins.
"Little Neuv, don't be nervous, close your eyes and feel your martial spirit with your heart."
"During this process, grandpa will guide you with his soul power."
Unlike weak deacons like Su Yuntao, Lexius does not need the assistance of "Awakening Stone" to help awaken the martial soul.
Using the Awakening Stone to assist is because they are afraid that the soul power will be insufficient during the awakening process, which will lead to the failure of the awakening.
Lexius is a strong man at the Soul Douluo level. His soul power is "like an abyss and an ocean", so he naturally does not need the assistance of the Awakening Stone.
He didn't even release his martial spirit.
Neuvillette stood in front of Lexius and nodded. He was lying if he said he wasn't nervous. He had finally come to another world. He didn't want to be a civilian without soul power.
In this world, strength still speaks.
"Thank you grandpa."
Neuvillette thanked him, he was very satisfied.
If it weren't for Lexius, he might have died in that winter night. If it weren't for him, there was a question as to whether anyone would help him awaken his martial spirit.
"You kid..."
Lexius waved his hand, with a smile on his face. Only a good boy knows how to be grateful.
He is not afraid that the other party has no strength, but he is afraid that the other party does not know what gratitude is, and is a wolf with white eyes, which makes people hate you wherever you go.
Lexius stroked his beard and saw Neuvillette obediently closing his eyes. Without hesitation, he pointed his right hand in the direction of Neuvillette and began to transfer soul power.
To put it bluntly, the awakening of the martial spirit means using soul power to stimulate the body, thereby causing the martial spirit hidden in people's bodies to appear.
As for how the first soul master appeared, it is unknown.
Under the influence of this soul power, Neuvillette's body slowly rose up and stopped when it was about one meter above the ground.
Time passed minute by minute, almost five minutes passed, and Lexius, who was maintaining the transmission of soul power, frowned.
"It's strange. When a normal person awakens the martial spirit, the martial spirit will appear in about two minutes at most. What's going on with little Neuvillette?"
Lexius murmured as he looked at Neuvillette, who was glowing with aqua-blue light.
Judging from the light emanating from Neuvillette's body, his martial spirit should be of water or ice attribute, but why hasn't his martial spirit come out yet?
It is almost impossible for a six-year-old child to be able to hide his martial soul under the influence of soul power.
'Even for gifted children, it's impossible'
'I, Lexius, am also a peak Soul Douluo, right?'
Neuvillette didn't notice the passage of time in the outside world. Under the influence of his soul power, he seemed to have come to the world of the ocean.
Except for water, there were no other living things around.
Wrapped in water, Neuvillette only felt warm and did not feel any discomfort.
At this moment, a gentle and familiar voice sounded in Neuvillette's mind. "Neuvillette, we meet again."
Who was that?
Hearing this, Neuvillette was shocked. The voice was so familiar, but it felt so unreal. She shouldn't be here.
Moreover, there was obviously something wrong with her title.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"Didn't you already guess it?"
The gentle female voice was filled with a touch of mischief, like the liveliness of a girl.
"F... Focalors!"
Neuvillette said subconsciously, still feeling a little unbelievable.
'Focalors is not dead.'
'She even traveled to Douluo Continent with me. What's happening here? And why does Focalors call me Neuvillette?'
'I am not the real Hydro Dragon. I just got this name by chance.'
"Bingo, you guessed it right."
"It seems that I left a very deep impression on you, little Neuv."
Neuvillette: "..."
"Focalors, you have recognized the wrong person. I am not the Hydro Dragon Neuvillette, but a mortal named Neuvillette."
Neuvillette was very happy to hear the voice of his supposedly short-lived wife, but he was not the real Hydro Dragon and he was unwilling to deceive the God of Justice.
"Do you admit your mistake?"
Neuvillette's explanation shocked Focalors. 'How could I admit that I was wrong?'
'The little Neuvillette in front of me is exactly the same as Neuvillette when he was a child.'
'What's more, he already had part of the Hydro Dragon's authority over him, so how could I admit my mistake?'
'Could it be that Neuvillette lost his memory?'
'Or is it because of his deception that he pretended not to recognize me?'
'Maybe it's because of transmigration?'
When Focalors discovered that she was not dead, but traveling across the world with Little Neuv, she was completely confused.
Fortunately, Fontaine's matter had been resolved, otherwise, she would not be able to get up.
"Neuvillette, let's get acquainted again. I am Archon Focalors, the former God of Justice and the God of Water."
'Get acquainted again, you should show up at least.' Neuvillette complained in his heart.
"There will come a day. Right now, I don't have the ability to turn into a human form."
Focalors said lightly, as if she had read Neuvillette's mind.
It was not easy for her divinity to be shattered and restored.
Currently, she could not transform, unless she could absorb most of the energy replenishment, or regain part of the power of the ancient dragon.
Of course, she had given back part of the power of the Hydro Dragon to Neuvillette, so it was naturally impossible to get it from him again. She conveniently ignored this point.
???
'Can Focalors really read my mind?'
Neuvillette blinked and wondered in confusion.
'And is Focalors in the state of a pure Oceanid now?'
Focalors was originally an ordinary pure Oceanid, but after gaining the power of the previous generation of Water Goddess Egeria, she became an Archon, similar to Barbatos.
'Why am I thinking about this so much?
If Focalors can see through what I'm thinking, then...'
"My short-lived wife..." Did she hear me say that too?
Thinking of this, Neuvillette felt his face heat up, and looked around nervously. There was nothing but water.
Focalors: "..."
Short life, wife, and so on. What was wrong with Neuvillette?
