Chapter Thirteen Suspicion
The door of the room was opened, and Huo Hai walked out from it. He looked at Xiao Jin who was barking in front of his own door and smiled slightly: "Hehe, how did you run over here? It's okay, I'm fine." After being comforted by Huo Hai, Xiao Jin finally stopped barking. At this time, the big door made a knocking sound, indicating that someone was knocking on the door.
As soon as the door opened, Huo Hai saw Huo Yun'er, who was peeking inside with her head stretched out. "Yun'er, what are you doing? Why are you sneaking around?" Huo Yun'er hadn't expected the door to suddenly open and was startled.
"Ah, yes, it's Brother Hai. How did you get out? This morning, Little Jin suddenly flew away and I followed him here. Ah, so Little Jin was here all along." Seeing Little Jin beside He Hai, He Yun'er's face lit up with excitement.
At this moment, Huo Yun'er suddenly remembered something and asked with wide eyes: "Hai Gege, how did you get out of the pass?" This little girl had just thought of it, earlier she was probably too busy looking at Xiao Jin to notice, really, she didn't even have a single bug to attract people.
Huo Hai thought for a moment, and then he knew what was going on. The Gu insect was his own blood-recognized pet, and although the connection between them wasn't very deep, there was still some connection. Especially in this world, for some unknown reason, Xiao Jin had developed relatively high intelligence. Even some emotions that only humans would have were gradually emerging.
Feeling the pain of Huo Hai's cultivation, Xiao Jin was extremely nervous. However, Huo Hai still hadn't come out, and although Xiao Jin was anxious, he endured it and didn't come over to disturb him. It wasn't until later that Huo Hai woke up, and only then did Xiao Jin return to normal.
Later, Huo Hai meditated again. After Xiao Jin sensed it, he didn't come over to disturb him. This was what Huo Hai had instructed before - as long as he was in a state of meditation, Xiao Jin couldn't disturb him. By evening, Huo Hai finished his meditation. But Xiao Jin was put into a box by Huo Yun'er. Xiao Jin, who couldn't harm Huo Yun'er, could only stay quietly inside.
It wasn't until this morning that Huo Yun'er released Xiao Jin, and only then did he fly over here. Although Huo Hai knew what was going on, he didn't explain it to Huo Yun'er. These things, Huo Yun'er didn't need to know about.
"That's right, I made a big gain this time in seclusion, and I've already broken through the Spiritual Blood Boundary. I plan to go to the Library Pavilion to find some things about cultivation. This way, Father won't stop me anymore." Huo Hai suddenly spoke up.
Huo Yun'er finally shifted her attention to Huo Hai: "Ah, Brother Hai, you've actually broken through the Spiritual Blood Realm! So fast! Honestly, I don't know when I'll be able to break through. Let's go, we're going to find Big Uncle."
Huoyun'er patted Xiaojin and pulled Huohai to leave, even Huohai didn't react. What was this girl thinking? Huohai smiled helplessly. Like this, he let Huoyun'er pull him to Huokai's study. As the head of the household, Huokai usually stayed in his study when there were no important matters, handling family affairs.
"Uncle, uncle, I'm here, open the door quickly." Before he even arrived, Huo Yun'er's voice rang out.
Upon hearing the voice, Huo Kai slowly opened the door with a smile: "Hehe, Yun'er, why did you come to my place today? Did your father lecture you again? Don't worry, I'll go talk to him."
After opening the door, Huo Kai suddenly saw Huo Hai being pulled by Huo Yun'er. The smile on his face froze, and he furrowed his brow. "Huo Hai, didn't you say you were going to seclude yourself? How did you come out after just two days? Cultivation requires endurance of loneliness, if you can't even bear a few days, how can you become a master?" Huo Kai was somewhat dissatisfied, unable to endure loneliness, how could he become a great expert.
It's him, sometimes he will retreat and close his door, for as long as one or two months.
Huo Hai did not refute him and directly said: "I report to Father, I have already reached the requirements of closed cultivation, so I came out."
Huo Kai's eyebrows furrowed even more: "Reached the requirement? What requirement, is your requirement so low? Hmm, no, how did your aura become so strong? I'll try it out." As he spoke, he grabbed Huo Hai's hand.
In an instant, a pure and powerful spiritual energy surged into Huo Hai's body. His own spiritual energy was unable to resist this power at all. "What a strong spiritual energy, what a pure power! Is this the realm of a Spiritual Master? When can I reach this level?" Under this power, Huo Hai felt that he didn't even have the strength to resist.
If it really came to a fight with Father, I'm afraid one move would be all it takes. No, even that might not be necessary. Perhaps just the spiritual pressure from his aura alone would be enough to keep me from standing upright, let alone fighting back.
Huo Kai's eyebrows furrowed tighter and tighter: "How is this possible, you've actually broken through the Spiritual Blood Boundary? How did you do it so quickly? Did you use some kind of abnormal method? No, that can't be right. Your spiritual veins are extremely resilient, and the spiritual energy within your body is very pure - it doesn't seem like something that could be achieved by taking medicine. And besides, there's no way you could have obtained a Body Refining Pill... how did this happen?"
As for Huo Hai's situation, Huo Kai was also confused. He clearly felt that the physical training had a very good effect, but this speed was too fast. From breaking through to the spiritual realm boundary until now, it was probably less than a year.
And during that time, something like that happened, causing a period of amnesia. Could it be that after being electrocuted by the spiritual beast, my own cultivation actually increased even faster? This doesn't seem right either, as there are just too many people who have been attacked by spiritual beasts.
Wait, Huo Kai suddenly said seriously: "Xiao Hai, did you find some kind of spiritual medicine outside and eat it directly? Do you know what consequences this will bring? Don't you want to become a true master?"
Huo Kai was extremely angry, and had always been very strict with Huo Hai. He even forbade him from using Body Refining Pills to cultivate, in order to make him lay a good foundation. The foundational techniques of the Huo family weren't considered high-level techniques. If he still relied on Body Refining Pills to assist him, his future accomplishments would be extremely limited, and it would be absolutely impossible for him to reach the realm of a Spirit.
Moreover, taking medicine indiscriminately, especially unrefined spiritual medicine, can cause extremely severe harm to oneself due to its violent medicinal properties. If the spiritual veins are damaged, it will be a problem to make further progress later on, so few people do this.
Unless one's own strength is extremely strong, taking ordinary elixirs will be fine, but even so, there won't be any effect. Either that or it's like them, this lifetime without a major breakthrough, they can use elixirs to forcibly advance a step.
Huo Hai helplessly spread his hands: "No, absolutely not. I've never taken any medicine. I reached the Spiritual Blood Realm through my own cultivation." Huo Hai muttered to himself in his heart, I didn't deceive you guys, I really haven't taken any medicine.
This is indeed correct, Huo Hai did not eat, he directly used the Refining Body Spirit Array to consume the Refining Body Pill to cultivate. The elixirs are all absorbed from the outside into the whole body, and they have never been eaten. But how could Huo Kai believe what Huo Hai said? What kind of person is Huo Hai, wouldn't they know? Even if he tried his best, it's impossible to be so fast, let alone that he can't even try hard.
During this time, he was either eating grass outside or catching insects, and he suspected that Huo Hai might have some mental illness.
Now that Huo Hai has said this, Huo Kai immediately got angry: "You little rascal, have you learned to lie too? Don't you put me, your father, in your eyes? You've eaten it, why don't you admit it? Do you want to drive me mad?"
Huò Kāi's anger was getting bigger and bigger, Huò Hǎi couldn't help but cover his head with his hands, hiding his entire body behind Huò Yún'ér. If he didn't hide, he might get beaten up. A good man doesn't take a loss in front of him, if he can avoid it, he'll avoid it first. Huò Hǎi knew that his current strength was completely no match for Huò Kāi's. Even with a good foundation, the gap in strength was too big.
"Father, father, don't move your hand, I really did it by myself. After I woke up, I suddenly found that my strength had increased a lot. And the speed of cultivation seems to be faster than the normal cultivation speed you mentioned."
Huo Hai had no choice but to start making things up. Anyway, this was what happened during this period of time. Besides, his past memories were all gone, and Huo Kai couldn't ask him about the past either.
Perhaps there was something hidden before the memory loss, and there was a special opportunity before the memory loss, which no one knows. Some spiritual medicines, after being taken, do not have a violent effect, but instead slowly seep out, bit by bit. It often takes a very long time to absorb. This kind of spiritual medicine has a gentle effect, even if taken directly, it will not be harmful.
Could it be that Xiaohai had obtained such a spiritual medicine before and unknowingly took it. If so, then Xiaohai was indeed fortunate in misfortune. But is this possible? Such spiritual medicines are usually very rare.
Those spiritual beasts aren't fools, even if there are mild spiritual medicines. If they encounter a spiritual beast, they will likely be eaten directly. This is also an important reason why mild spiritual medicines are rarely seen.
"No matter what you say, you must go through the test. I need to determine your current situation. If not tested, I won't give you the next stage of the Huo Family's Spiritual Technique. How about it, will you accept this test?" Huo Kai looked at Huo Hai seriously, he didn't want Huo Hai to ruin his future life due to unexpected events.
Huo Hai's face turned unusually serious: "Alright, I accept this test." He couldn't not accept it, Huo Hai thought to himself with a bleeding heart. The test, he really didn't want to take it. Thinking about those pig legs, as soon as they were tested, there would definitely be problems.
I won't be so unlucky, will I? Huo Hai didn't want to show off, but the current situation was that if he didn't accept the test, he wouldn't be able to get the next stage of cultivation techniques. Without the techniques, he couldn't continue on the path of a spiritual master. This was a dead end, and Huo Hai could only hope that he wouldn't be too abnormal in the test.
