The current state is like being in a dream, and the dream is still intact. Therefore, Xia Xiao also forgot how long he had been preparing for the arrival of this day, and how much time he had spent settling down. He only saw the steps leading to a higher place, like a real mountain road, straight to the highest point of the mountain.

Taking a step, although no one witnessed Xia Xiao's domineering and calmness at this time, these steps truly represented that Xia Xiao had made it through. He didn't know that a large part of his advancement to the Tao was due to luck, but he just walked up, towards the top of the mountain he had always wanted to go to.

The top of the mountain is the pinnacle of cultivation in the Great Wilderness. Although there are many realms above it, it is still irreplaceable. Such strength has always existed only in the big forces. Other than that, ordinary countries do not have such a strong fighting force. But now, Xia Xiao will get such power as a Great Xia person.

If the Great Wilderness had recovered to its original state now and Xia Xiao had not chosen to stay in the academy, it would naturally shock others. But now he is becoming stronger as a simple human being, and everyone in the Great Wilderness is proud of him.

In the thick vitality, Xia Xiao was like sitting on a throne, able to call upon the vast wilderness. When he was eager to try, the scene in front of him changed again, returning to the original scene. This scene was familiar to Xia Xiao, still with his back against the bamboo forest and the academy in front. But one thing remained unchanged, that is, snow everywhere, but it was very different.

The snow on the bamboo forest behind him and the surrounding meadows was very thin, and could be melted with a slight sweep of the hand, which was different from the vast snow that seemed like the end of the world before. Seeing this, Xia Xiao finally felt something different. He looked around, and Ah Zhu was not there either, but this real touch did not feel a bit illusory, which made him no longer feel so bad.

Xia Xiao raised his hand to confirm it. Then, he turned his palm over, and the sky was still clear with only a few snowflakes. He turned his hand over again, and it started to rain heavily.

In addition, Xia Xiao casually pinched it, and there was a strong condensation of vitality. Compared with Cangtian, this vitality was a thousand times stronger, but it was precisely because of this that Xia Xiao stepped on it and sent the boundless vitality into the wood element space while closing his eyes.

After entering the Dao, Xia Xiao's first thing was naturally to revive Ju Mang. Although Xiao Ran had lived in his body for a long time, Xia Xiao knew that she also wanted to see Ju Mang, so he used fire as his hand and quickly formed a seal. The wood element space was covered with vitality, and soon a drastic change occurred.

Xia Xiao had never controlled the wood space like this, nor the other four spaces. He could only use the corresponding vitality in different spaces, and in terms of mastering the space, he was not as strong as the spirit beast. This was his original understanding, but now, when there were more towering trees in the wood space, the small vines beside the altar had grown rapidly.

What Xia Xiao had felt helpless about before, now became extremely easy, he just waved his hand. Soon, it bloomed a flower, and then Xia Xiao stopped the action in his hand, and it was just like that, without blooming.

There is a reason for this, because Xia Xiao felt Ju Mang's fluctuations, but continuing would only make it uncomfortable, so it needs to be given some time to adapt to the greatly shortened growth period.

This was not an easy task, but it was not difficult either. Xia Xiao had waited for so long, so he could afford to wait for a while. Therefore, when he saw the man running towards him from the academy, he smiled.

Ah Zhu held Doudou in his arms, sat on the small dot that had grown into a giant narwhal, and rushed towards Xia Xiao, as if he was the sea of ​​stars. When the giant creature approached, the wind it brought made the bamboo forest dance wildly, and the small dot turned into a stream of starlight and drifted away. When Doudou fell to the ground, Xia Xiao hugged Ah Zhu tightly.

It is not easy to wait for four seasons with just one hug. Xia Xiao also understood, so he said apologetically:

"Sorry to have kept you waiting."

"It's okay. I have Doudou and Diandian to keep me company."

Xia Xiao listened to Ah Zhu's hesitant voice, held her face with both hands again, and said sweetly:

"I have good news for you. My answer has been found."

"real?"

Although Xia Xiao's purpose of retreating here is to become stronger, Azhu is not so concerned about Xia Xiao's strength, but whether he wakes up.

Because even if Xia Xiao doesn't become stronger, she can still help Xia Xiao block everything, it's just a little more tiring. Accompanying Xia Xiao all the way, Ah Zhu knows how much Xia Xiao has suffered, so it's not impossible for her to suffer it now. But Xia Xiao's desire to win makes him finally enter the realm of asking for the truth.

When Ah Zhu looked at Xia Xiao, his eyes were full of shining stars. As the first person that Ah Zhu fell in love with, he deserved such bright eyes to illuminate the haze.

Xia Xiao hugged Azhu again, and the latter did the same. They both felt a familiar scent in each other's arms, and then they sat together quietly, watching the light snow falling.

Such simple companionship was something that both Xia Xiao and Azhu had been looking forward to for a long time, so they cherished it very much. They didn't say anything, but just sat there simply.

Xia Xiao could probably guess how lonely Ah Zhu had been during this period. She was indeed only with Doudou and Diandian every day. She had thought about going back to Luocheng, or meeting Tianming and the others, to relieve her boredom, but because she didn't know when Xia Xiao would wake up, she kept waiting, just to accompany Doudou and Diandian.

Azhu has a clear conscience towards Xia Xiao, but he owes a lot to them, especially Doudou.

At dusk, in the cool breeze, Ah Zhu asked Xia Xiao:

"Do you want to continue improving your strength?"

Xia Xiao would not lie to her and nodded immediately.

"I want to try it myself first, and then you can help me."

"Okay, then when you break through the shackles of the Great Wilderness, we'll go back?"

"Yes! But when I entered the Dao realm before, the Great Wilderness Consciousness said a lot of strange things to me, which made me confused."

"What?"

"She said, 'I didn't lose many things, but only one thing.' Then she covered everything around with snow, and you were nowhere to be seen. I suspect she was reminding me that you would leave, so I had to improve my strength and keep up with you. She also repeatedly said that life was difficult, so why bother to be saved. She didn't seem to want me to do that, and instead left the Great Wilderness alone. But isn't the current Great Wilderness already balanced? That's right, the words on the Holy Spring are true!"

The more he sorted out the troubles, the more he felt something was wrong. What exactly was she talking about? With the previous lesson, Xia Xiao would not ignore what she said. He immediately thought of it and reminded Ah Zhu:

"I feel like something is bound to happen later that will upset the current balance. That makes sense."

"But at the moment... nothing seems to be happening."

"No, there are two. One is Yu Shangyan, and the other is the beastman. My current strength has increased, and with you, it has surpassed the beastman by a lot. It would be too strange if we can achieve balance like this. If I break the balance, I won't be able to advance to the Dao so easily, so there must be something else going on!"
