Episode 16

After everything felt calmer, Xiao Shuxiang seriously scanned his current whereabouts.

"Where am I?" Then who are you?" Xiao Shuxiang's expression looked dazed, he felt as if he was currently in a very foreign place.

"Young Master, welcome to the Soul World," said a middle-aged man wearing a black shirt, his demeanor calm but with an indescribable aura.

Hearing his name called Young Master, Xiao Shuxiang's eyebrows furrowed and he felt a little strange because he didn't come from a big family, let alone in a world he himself didn't know existed.

"What is the Soul World?" Xiao Shuxiang asked the middle-aged man.

"This is the same place as where the Master lives in real life, it's just that the Soul World is within the Young Master himself, where the Young Master is the one who has the right to regulate it himself," said the middle-aged man in a clear tone.

Xiao Shuxiang was stunned for a moment, as a cultivator who had just crawled up to the Qi Core realm, of course he was still layman, was all this a common thing that could be achieved by other cultivators?

"If this place is inside of me, then who are you?" asked Xiao Shuxiang suspiciously.

"I am Heilong, previously I was the black jade dragon sealed in the jade necklace that Young Master wore before," replied the middle-aged man.

"If so, why can't I feel the aura of power within you?" asked a curious Xiao Shuxiang.

"Young Master's power is still very weak, so he cannot measure my current strength. However, when the time comes, Young Master will not only be able to see this small power of mine, but Young Master can also become the ruler of this realm," said Heilong, who is the transformation of the Black Dragon.

"If you are so strong, why do you call me Young Master?" asked Xiao Shuxiang with a surprised expression.

"Actually, I am the Black Dragon entity, thanks to the blood and also the lightning strike that struck Young Master, it can be considered a soul contract between us. I personally will accompany Young Master until he reaches the peak of cultivation in the future," said Heilong with a serious look.

"Oh, I see..." said Xiao Shuxiang who already understood the concept of a soul contract, but he was lucky because this time he was the master.

"Young Master needs to know, that the soul world was formed thanks to the energy of lightning and the power sealed in the black dragon jade for thousands of years. The combination of the two has created extraordinary new power, of course as the owner of this soul world, Young Master can arrange it as you wish. But as I said at the beginning, if Young Master's strength is still very weak, you need to increase your strength in this place," Heilong then gave a little more knowledge about the soul world.

Xiao Shuxiang pondered, what he had considered strength so far was only a small achievement. What Heilong said was that when I have a great achievement, he even calls himself small, so how vast and big is the world of cultivators? Xiao Shuxiang thought that if the lightning strike and the black jade necklace left by his father had a connection, he also wanted to ask Heilong about his father, but he preferred to hold back remembering the words of his teacher that he had to become stronger first.

"Is it true that I can practice in this place?" asked Xiao Shuxiang again with interest.

"Yes, of course, Young Master, practicing in the soul world is the same as practicing in the outside world. It's just that the difference is about time. One month in the soul world is only one day in the outside world," replied Heilong with a smile.

"Thank you for the explanation, but right now I can't practice in this place because I'm worried my teacher will be anxious looking for me. At least I have to ask for permission first so that I can practice in this place in peace," said Xiao Shuxiang explaining his situation.

"Alright Young Master, I'll wait here," replied Heilong politely.

"Speaking of which, how do I get to this place?" asked Xiao Shuxiang a little confused.

"Young Master just needs to be serious when cultivating Dragon Aura, I will pick up Young Master as before. And one more thing, the Dragon Aura technique can also be used to hide Young Master's cultivation level," said Heilong respectfully.

Basically, Heilong can only live in the soul world, so if something happens to Xiao Shuxiang, he will also feel the direct impact. By sharing some knowledge, of course it would not harm him, instead it would make the world of the soul develop well over time.

After getting some introductory explanations of the Soul World and aura concealment techniques, Xiao Shuxiang, who was currently still in his cultivation position, immediately opened his eyes. The chirping of canaries and several other species of birds indicated that it was morning, making his heart happy.

"Finally I'm back.." muttered Xiao Shuxiang after witnessing his entire room.

As usual, Xiao Shuxiang immediately rushed to the bathroom to clean himself. Especially today, his teacher was already waiting for him to start sparring practice, so after taking a shower and changing his clothes into the typical clothes of the Black Dragon Sect's outer disciples, he immediately headed to the backyard where he usually practiced.

"Good morning, teacher..." greeted Xiao Shuxiang when he saw his teacher who had just arrived.

"Looks like you're really showing your true talent now..." said the Second Elder as he felt the level of his disciple's strength.

Li Haoran clearly felt that his disciple was already in the early stages of the Qi Core realm, even though he was very happy that Xiao Shuxiang was finally able to cross the threshold to participate in the outer disciple selection tournament, but Li Haoran also felt that his disciple had a very strong internal energy and was different from cultivator at the same realm.

"What happened this time is also thanks to the teacher's help, I have taken the eclipse pill that the teacher gave. In addition, I have also absorbed all the spiritual stones that the teacher gave," said Xiao Shuxiang, avoiding his teacher's suspicion.

Xiao Shuxiang forgot that he could already rely on the Dragon Aura breathing he got from Heilong's explanation, but in front of his teacher he also didn't want to cover it up.

"Oh, so that's how it is.." said Li Haoran in a surprised tone.

Previously, he gave his savings of spiritual stones so that his students could use them optimally for the next month. But now, in just one night, everything had been absorbed, making Li Haoran stunned.
