Chapter 399: Failure and Frustration
"Xiaohuo, still not working?"
At this time, in a monster mountain range in Dongzhou, Luo Diandian looked at Xiaohuo who had just woken up from his slumber. After standing up from the ground, she reached out and took the little beast that jumped into her arms.
(╯﹏╰)
Xiaohuo lowered his head, listening to Luo Diandian's words, and couldn't help but look up at her expression.
(O_O)
Seeing that there was no special expression on Luo Diandian's face, he just asked simply.
I always treat it with this indifferent attitude, without any accusations of wasted effort, and I always pamper it.
There was only a hint of regret in those beautiful almond eyes, but he still hugged it and patted its head to comfort it.
But the more this happened, the worse Xiaohuo felt.
Sometimes, this look that shows no desire to put pressure on the soul and hide the emotions is far more hurtful to the heart than exaggerated scolding.
Xiaohuo didn't know why he couldn't make a breakthrough. He tried very hard to absorb things, but he just couldn't take that step.
As I thought about it, the grievances in my heart surged up.
“Mmmmm——”
o(╥﹏╥)o
The little beast in his arms sobbed and whimpered a few times at first, but was still discovered by Luo Diandian.
"What's wrong, Xiaohuo, don't cry!"
Luo Diandian was startled and quickly hugged the baby and patted its back to comfort it.
The gentle whispers and warm embrace made Xiaohuo cry even louder.
"Wow wow wow!"
o·( )o
"It's okay, it's just a failure. We will definitely succeed if we work harder next time!"
Luo wiped away the tears that were falling from Xiaohuo's face with a kind heart and encouraged it.
Unexpectedly, the series of failures made Xiaohuo burst into tears.
In the past, Xiaohuo followed Luo Diandian and everything went smoothly for him.
Not only does it have her careful care, but it also has the Mirage Pearl and various things given by Lu Wuhui for advancement, so it rarely suffers from hardships.
In addition, Luo Diandian, who has always been very good to Xiaohuo, now brings it out specifically to obtain demon pills and condense spirit beads to help it break through.
When faced with such a setback, the guilt in Xiaohuo's heart was far greater than the pain brought by the failure, so no matter how Luo Diandian tried to comfort him, it didn't work.
After a long, long time, Luo Diandian held it on the cliff and looked into the distance, and Xiaohuo gradually calmed down.
"Xiao Huo, do you know that before I met you, I was just a small servant in the Sword Sect. Back then, I was a failure and a complete loser."
"But with a little progress, I'm still happy, without so many worries, so I hope you'll be happy too."
In Luo Diandian's eyes, Xiaohuo is really the little child he was back then, and she doesn't ask anything of it because she believes she can protect it from wind and rain.
Even after living for so many years, Xiaohuo has always stayed by her side, without experiencing worldly disturbances or major storms, and his mind has not changed much.
In fact, breaking through the realm of refining emptiness is not something that can be done overnight. Opportunity, luck, and enlightenment are all things that can only be encountered by chance.
Xiaohuo broke through easily all the way, and seeing that Luo Diandian also broke through smoothly, he thought that advancing to the Lianxu stage was a very simple matter.
But how many human cultivators, demons and monsters have stopped at this bottleneck. Now it is far ahead of many people, which is already great.
Listening to Luo Diandian constantly speaking words of advice to it, and telling it about things that happened long before he met it.
Xiaohuo's sad heart gradually cleared up. He looked into the distance and listened to Luo Diandian's words, which soothed his soul like the sound of gurgling water.
Even if the clouds in the distance are floating slowly, one day they will reach the destination they want to reach.
The geese migrating from north to south can eventually return to their hometown even if they encounter storms on the way.
Everything is just like that, nothing big.
As he was talking, Luo nodded and said "Hmm?", looking at the sky with a strange look.
The clear sky above my head suddenly turned and was suddenly covered with dark clouds. I could faintly hear the muffled sound of thunder rolling in it.
"Tsk, why is it raining again..."
God really changes at any time, Luo Diandian said as he quickly cast some spiritual energy on himself and Xiaohuo.
But I didn't expect to look down...
Her eyes suddenly widened bigger than copper bells!
"Little Fire!!!"
Xiaohuo's body was covered with a faint halo, and the milky white light rose and fell like breathing, gradually enveloping its entire body.
"Hmm?"
What happened? Xiao Huo was also confused by the changes in his body.
It just listened to Luo Diandian's words and thought they made a lot of sense, then it calmed down and no longer dwelled on its previous failure.
But who would have thought that after this inner introspection and clarity, something inside the body seemed to break apart.
"You're about to break through Little Fire!"
Luo Diandian blurted out in disbelief, full of surprise.
Even though it's hard to believe, the fact is that after she gave Xiaohuo some inspirational talk, it suddenly had an epiphany!
That’s right, it’s that mysterious epiphany!
Damn, one went to comprehend the way of the sword first, and the other one has now directly gained enlightenment and broken through to the realm of refining emptiness. Is this right?
Luo Diandian did have an experience of enlightenment, but she never had it again after the sword force, so she never expected such an illusory thing.
But Xiaohuo's move was too outrageous. He actually made a breakthrough just by talking nonsense.
How could such a thing happen? If this were to get out, Xiao Huo would surely make so many people jealous that their eyes would burst with anger!
But now is not the time to worry about this.
"Quickly calm your mind and focus on the heavenly tribulation."
Luo Diandian left behind things that could help Xiaohuo, including spirit stones, pills, spirit beads, demon pills, etc. She threw everything that had a little spiritual energy on the ground without reservation.
Then he gave some instructions and quickly retreated ten miles away.
Rumbling thunderclouds suddenly fell, and at the same time, unknown sky fire fell.
When Xiaohuo had undergone tribulation before, it was always a tribulation of heavenly fire, but now a tribulation of thunder had suddenly joined in.
I don’t know what kind of changes will happen.
Luo Diandian looked at the dazed Xiaohuo from afar, feeling anxious, but he could only pray. After all, it was up to the animal to survive the tribulation on its own.
Fortunately, Xiaohuo was only stunned for a moment, thinking about Luo Diandian's instructions in his mind, and then he hung in the air.
The small dragon body and golden scales flashed an inexplicable halo under the white mist. It closed its eyes, crossed its two chubby claws, and faced its two chubby feet, looking like it was learning to meditate.
Luo Diandian: ...
It was an extremely serious scene, but she almost couldn't hold back her laughter.
No, how could a monster learn to meditate and practice like humans?
It was obvious that Xiao Huo had learned this set of skills from the way he saw Luo Diandian meditating on the bed.
