As night fell, Neuvillette, who had just awakened his martial spirit less than eight hours ago, felt a surge of confusion.
He looked at himself in the mirror, his emotions complex.
"Hydro Dragon King, it's me!"
"The power of the Hydro Sovereign..."
"When did I become the real Neuvillette?"
He had thought he had awakened the Hydro Dragon King's Neuvillette martial spirit. But after coming back and studying for a long time, he discovered that this was actually his original martial spirit.
He had no idea why the phantom appeared as an adult.
The original martial spirit meant that this martial spirit was himself, and he was the Hydro Dragon King Neuvillette.
That was why his appearance had not changed even though he had taken back his "Martial Spirit".
"My power, why..."
He was the Hydro Dragon King himself and had the complete ancient dragon power. Why was his power so weak?
He was the Hydro Dragon King, and Neuvillette was also him. So, according to the saying that the longer a dragon lived, the stronger it became, he had only been "just born" for six years???
Um...
Maybe it was understandable to be so weak after six years?
Neuvillette touched his chin and pondered.
"Why do I have no memory of the continent of Teyvat?"
"Since I am Neuvillette, what is the reason that led me to cross to the Douluo Continent?"
"Also, is my past life just an illusion?"
"Which one is the real me?"
Neuvillette was not the only one who was baffled. Even after Focalors learned about Neuvillette's situation, she could not give a reasonable explanation.
This Neuvillette seemed strange. He clearly knew what had happened, but he did not have those detailed memories.
He had even more memories of a "different world". Could it be that Neuvillette was also an "adventurer"?
'Legend had it that the power of the Seven Dragon Kings came from the third descendant. Could it be related to this?
Had Navelette just awakened some of the memories of the third descendant?'
Both Focalors and Neuvillette were confused and could not figure it out. In the end, they simply stopped thinking about it. Maybe they would figure it out naturally after a long time.
Neuvillette sat cross-legged and began his first "cultivation". The so-called cultivation was actually basic meditation. Through meditation, he guided the soul power from the outside world into his body.
On Douluo Continent, except for Tang San, there was currently no complete set of cultivation techniques. Soul masters used innate soul power to meditate and strengthen their soul power.
This was also the reason why people without innate soul power were destined not to become soul masters.
Without innate soul power, even basic meditation could not be achieved, and there would be no soul power.
In fact, Neuvillette did not need to cultivate at all. He just needed to live well and survive. Eighteen hundred years later, he would still be invincible in the world.
Dragons, the longer they lived, the stronger they became.
From the moment Neuvillette became the Hydro Dragon King, his lifespan could not be limited. As long as he did not die unexpectedly, he could live until the end of time.
Even if he died unexpectedly, he would revive again at a certain period of time. Of course, the Neuvillette at that time would no longer be the same Neuvillette.
The first generation Dragon King died, and the second generation Dragon King returned with some of the memories of the first generation Dragon King, but he was no longer the first generation Dragon King.
"Um?"
"Strange?"
Neuvillette suddenly opened his eyes, filled with confusion.
There is a rule in Douluo Continent, a rule that no one can break. Only by transcending the consciousness of Douluo Continent can one be free from this rule. However, after transcending the consciousness of Douluo Continent, there is no need to follow this rule anymore.
That is, a soul master must obtain a soul ring in order to improve his strength.
No matter how one obtains the soul ring, whether it is from hunting a soul beast, self-condensing a soul ring (soul beast transformation), or receiving a soul ring from a god, one must have a soul ring to break through a major bottleneck in cultivation.
However, during the training just now, Neuvillette did not feel any bottleneck at all.
Although his soul power had not broken through, he could clearly feel that he had improved a lot.
Before acquiring the first soul ring with innate level 20 soul power, there are two bottlenecks.
One is for soul masters to break through to the level of soul masters, and the other is for soul masters to break through to the level of great soul masters.
However, these two bottlenecks seemed to not exist at all for Neuvillette. With just a little practice, he felt that his soul power had improved.
"Hiss..."
As if thinking of something, Neuvillette took a breath and murmured: "I don't have this restriction, do I?"
'No soul ring is needed, soul power can break through!'
'If there really was no such restriction, it would not matter whether I wanted a soul ring or not, right?'
'As a perfect dragon, an ordinary soul ring, no, even a hundred thousand year soul ring would only taint my body.
The cultivation system in which a soul master can obtain the power of a soul beast in this way to break through to the next level should not exist at all.
It was just too weak, it was all relying on external forces.
If one day the soul ring could not be used normally, soul masters would simply be a group of "ordinary people" who had no soul power but did not know how to use it.'
For a soul master with a "Fire Phoenix" spirit like Ma Hongjun, breathing fire was actually a soul skill, not an instinct...
And Tang San, was it not instinct for plants to entangle?
Why was it also a soul skill?
"Aliens are often abnormal."
"Just like the God of Wind and God of Rock, they all wear a fake glass bead."
"Should I wear a fake soul ring?"
"It is really unpleasant to use my own power but have to wear a fake mask to disguise myself."
At this moment, Neuvillette seemed to understand why he in Teyvat resisted wearing fake glass beads.
Dragon, born powerful, was the apex creature of the elements, and arrogance was inevitable.
"Never add any real soul rings or soul bones unless necessary."
As for the disguised soul rings, Neuvillette had a way. He could control water. Although he was not very powerful now, there was no problem in forming two aqua-blue "soul rings".
"Is it really okay to fool the old man like this?"
After a while, Neuvillette thought of a way to fool Lexius, but should he, who was upright and just, do this?
'Well, that was a white lie. Presumably the old man would not blame him.'
"Then Neuvillette, you are a bad student."
Suddenly, Focalors' teasing voice came to his mind, which made Neuvillette stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red.
"Focalors, I am no longer the person I used to be."
Neuvillette said bravely, although he did not have the memory of the Teyvat, he did have the memory of the "Blue Star".
But he still knew what happened in Teyvat, otherwise, he would not have said that Focalors was a short-lived wife....
