"You're really good," Ling Xi smiled, "Since you call me sister, I'll give you a name. What should I call you?" Ling Xi thoughtfully rubbed her chin, suddenly, her eyes lit up, "Mengmeng, from now on you'll be called Mengmeng, Leng Mengmeng! How about that? From today onwards, you're my little sister."
Ling Xi's face was full of smiles.
Mengmeng's round, chubby, delicate little face and big eyes were really cute! They were almost meltingly adorable!
"Mengmeng? Mengmeng! That's great, from now on I'll be called Mengmeng, Leng Mengmeng! I have a name now, thank you, Sister Xi." Mengmeng suddenly threw herself into Ling Xi's arms, chuckling happily. Although she still didn't fully understand the significance of a name, she liked it because her master had chosen it.
"Right, Mengmeng, since you said you are a piece of crystal that fell while Nuwa was mending the sky and you've slept for so long, do you have some abilities that us humans don't have?"
For the martial arts fanatic Ling Xi, this was an extremely special and unbeatable temptation!
The old Ling Xi, back at the Special Agent Training Camp, was feared even by the instructors who had taught her; because as soon as she touched upon martial arts and sparring that interested her, she was a genius among geniuses, completely unstoppable.
"Yes, I do," Mengmeng nodded with a giggle, "Sister Xi, stretch out your hand, I'll help you test your attribute."
"Attribute?"
"Yes." Mengmeng nodded. "A thousand years ago, when Lady Nuwa used us for mending the sky, I was continuously refined by her, and gradually, I developed spiritual power and secretly started cultivating alongside Lady Nuwa."
"Are you talking about cultivation?" Ling Xi asked.
"Not exactly," Mengmeng shook her head. "Lady Nuwa was originally divine, so it was just the most basic of training, learning how to better control thunder and lightning, as well as the birth and reproduction of all things in nature."
"Oh," Ling Xi nodded and extended her hand.
It seemed like these were so-called superpowers, abilities beyond those of ordinary people.
Mengmeng also stretched out her hands and placed them on Ling Xi's palms, closing her eyes.
Gradually, silver lightning began to flicker in Ling Xi's hands, and once Mengmeng removed her hands, it soared into the sky, piercing the fog and rushing into the clouds.
"Thunder Attribute!" Mengmeng exclaimed with excitement.
"What about the Thunder Attribute?" Ling Xi asked, puzzled by the excited look on Mengmeng's face.
Thunder Attribute... is it that impressive?
"Sister Xi, let me tell you, the Thunder Attribute is the most powerful among all attributes because compared to others, the attack power of the Thunder Attribute is the most terrifying." Seeing Ling Xi's indifferent look, Mengmeng urgently hopped on her feet.
At its highest level, Thunder Attribute could even control the weather! It might even command other attributes; though she was not sure about that.
Sister Xi really didn't understand her feelings at all.
"Oh..." Hearing Mengmeng's explanation, a flash of joy crossed Ling Xi's eyes.
Attack power that's terrifying, huh? That sounds really good!
Thinking this, Ling Xi directed her thoughts and streaks of silver lightning began to dance between her fingertips. As she controlled them with her thoughts, the lightning became bigger and more intricate, like a spider web, dazzling and bright.
Suddenly, the silver lightning, as if alive, began to rush into Ling Xi's body. Ling Xi broke out in a sweat; and then, in the next instant, she suddenly felt an immense relief and freedom, as if she had achieved what the ancients described as 'opening the Ren and Du meridians,' a tremendous comfort she couldn't express.
In that moment, Ling Xi really wanted to find someone to test her skills on.
Once Ling Xi became familiar with her abilities, Mengmeng casually pointed and a ray of light instantly entered Ling Xi's forehead.
"This is..." As memories suddenly surfaced in her mind, Ling Xi was even more astonished.
"Sister Xi, this feeling is just the beginning," Mengmeng said excitedly, "as you continue to cultivate slowly and reach the highest level, you can even make the clouds change color."
Mengmeng was full of excitement as she spoke.
Afterward, Ling Xi asked Mengmeng many questions about cultivation and what she had learned while cultivating with Lady Nuwa.
It was unexpected that Nuwa wasn't just a myth; although she had left the world where humans reside, she had indeed truly existed.
And about cultivation; there were six levels of cultivation:
First level: Primary-level, instant thunder strike;
Second level: Teleportation, enhanced attack ability;
Third level: Support; increasing one's own and others' life points within a certain range and unlocking their potential;
Fourth level: Mid-level attack skills, doubling the lethality of attacks; protection of Thunder Energy Shield;
Fifth level: Using spiritual power to negate or minimize damage inflicted by opponents;
Sixth level: Highest-level Superpower User, unlimited spiritual power;
It looked like this superpower was really impressive!
...
"Mengmeng, can everyone practice these things?" After finishing the first stage of cultivation, Ling Xi looked somewhat helplessly at Mengmeng, who was staring at her intently.
For some reason, Mengmeng seemed really fond of staring at her.
"Of course not." Mengmeng withdrew her gaze contentedly, "Although every person has a different attribute, in this era, such people are extremely rare; and there's one more important thing, you need an elf like me! Without Mengmeng, everything else is useless."
Mengmeng lifted her delicate brows and eyes with pride.
Ling Xi couldn't help but laugh.
But it was good this way, now she could better protect everything she had! Because those were treasures she had attained with great difficulty; for them, she was willing to pay any price!
