In a dreamland

After a while of passing out, I heard a voice telling me," You are not here by coincidence, this is your fate ....you need to take care of people around you no matter what. I'm giving you the power but how your gonna use it depends on you. My friends will take care of you wherever you go. Be a good person and always follow your heart."

Then I slowly opened my eyes and didn't saw my original but the soul body.... I thought,'What in the world is going on??'

I wandered my gaze upon my surroundings, it was complete darkness but I don't know from where a faint light was coming.

A thought rang in my mind,'Where there is will, there is a way.'

I got up and started to walk towards it whenever I was almost near it, I felt a strange pain in my body and mind until I pass out and at once I was back at the starting point.

But I don't know what was driving me, I only thought no matter what I am going to get it.

I guess I tried numerous times, but I didn't got dejected instead my will and the ability to endure pain increased by tens of folds.

Then, one day I got near it and there were numerous words in golden light were actually floating there, I was mesmerized by them I walked towards them, they gave me way and I stood in the centre staring at them then suddenly they all wrapped me up like a mummy but I felt a numbness inside me then a cooling sensation it was quite relaxing and I passed out right there.

Then, again the voice said," Good, you have got more than I expected, it's good it shows you are capable of being the chosen one. The Heavenly Dao always expects for the world to be a good place so don't drift towards darkness, if you do then you should gain the power of faith and underworld both, remember my words till eternity. My time ends here, the 7 dragons will always listen to your commands. They will help you no matter where in the world you are. Take care of everything for me, child."

Then, a gust of wind arrived and I again drifted in slumber.

When I became sober, there was only one thing that came into my mind, pain!! endless pain!!! It was painful, I didn't know what was happening but it was way too tormenting.

My bones, tendons, blood, tissues no matter what it was, it was in pain. I thought who in the world can be this cruel to torture a 3 month old child this much. But to my surprise, when I opened my eyes, I saw 7 snakes sitting in front of me with smiling eyes.

I thought,'where am I now?? Did I die again? Don't let me live, if you want to do this god?!!' Suddenly a bolt of lightning struck me hard and I was in even more pain!!!

I don't know how many bolts of lightning I had received. I had already became a tattered piece of charcoal.

Then, suddenly I started to fly, towards a majestic bed. I had no energy to think who those snakes were, where I was, why was I there and so. I drifted in deep slumber again.

When I was sober, they checked my situation and nodded to each other.

Suddenly all the 7 snakes turned in human form, and pledged together," We, *the guardian of heaven**s*, Dragons with pure bloodline of Dragon kingdom contract ourselves with young master Wu Lin till his spirit exists!!"

The contract light flew up in the sky and I who God knows from where was, before at High Monarch overload rank, succeeded to High Emperor overload rank.

The energy inside me became chaotic, but the so-called dragons conducted it into my dantian and I regained the control over the energy and a seal which was already there sealed the energy.

I sighed then saw my body of a 2-year-old kid, I was surprised, how long did I passed out??

And I was even capable of moving, the charred pieces of meat smelling like roasted fell from my body and fresh flesh had already developed. I was surprised by the speed!!

Then I got up, surprisingly I could control the body, in a well manner. Then I took a bath, cleaned myself put a new set of clothes and relaxed, arrived in front of those 7 dragons and sat down on the bed.

I took a deep breath and then asked the dragons in front of me, "Who Are You, Guys??"

They seemed to be surprised at my words, but instantly they replied,"Master, we are your contracted dragons!"

He thought I will be surprised, but instead I said,"I'm not a kid alright, they exist in legends how can you guys be dragons and just now when I woke you were sitting like a snake!! I don't believe it." I said with seriousness in my eyes.

The nearest one to me replied," Master, you have received us by the inheritance and this is one of our locations, don't be scared or nervous, we are just following what our Kingdom has asked us to do. The energy is sealed by the person who had talked to you and the person capable of passing us the order to follow you. We are here to protect you. Even if we are the guardians of heavenly realm but since this is what the king asked we can't say no to it." He said dejectedly.

After a bit of contemplation, I said," You don't have to follow me, you can go and do your work. There is nothing for you to do for me for the time being."

I tactfully asked them to leave, after all they too need a proper reason to let me go.

But, I don't know why, they denied after a bit of hesitation and said,"No matter what we will always be on your side, we can't let anything happen to you." I sighed and sulked.

Then suddenly, one of them came in front of me and said, "Since you're from another world you definitely don't know many things of this world right?"

I thought and replied,"Yeah, isn't it obvious?"

Then, he smiled lightly and started explaining," This world has many continents,and presently you are the young master of the general's mansion of Great Du empire, which possesses the third ranking among various continents in this world's business, economy and talent. Hence, your position is really important, remember it."

I replied,"mnn". Then he further explained," The cultivation world is always dynamic. The current prodigy in the whole world is Mo Zheng, of the mo clan from Northern Xi, the top continent.

Human cultivation is divided into several ranks namely, Sovereign, Celestial, Monarch, Divine, Emperor, Immortal, Empyrean,Deity. I don't think so, you need to know the details for now. Just remember to hide your strength or else everyone will know that you possess the heavenly dao as well as entered the forbidden void."He warned me.

I asked him," This forbidden void, is it the space distortion you are talking about??"

He was surprised on my words, and said," You know about these, how? Did you cultivate back then as well ??"

I felt his heated gaze and said,"Yeah, I was a so-called prodigy in that world. Everyone was scared of me, admired me. But in the end, what did I receive? Betrayal?"

He saw the nostalgia in my expression and said," You are still a kid, don't behave like an old man."

I sighed and said," Alright, this means that I have received the strength but still, give me some skills as well or else what am I supposed do with this strength???"

Everyone looked at me with admiration and with a wave of their hands thousands of piles of books stacked up, appeared. I was surprised.

They said," These are some beginner levels' books study them then show us your prowess then we will teach you more."

I felt happy, but reality struck me hard and I replied," Alright, but what about my family??How are they doing?? Would I able to meet them or not??"

They looked at me helplessly and said," Until you don't reach Middle Immortal rank, you can't leave this place. So don't think about it now. We will train you for the time being" then they disappeared.

This means I need to work hard from now, I said in my heart. After all, I'm helpless at the moment!!
