Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird

The red feathers floated in the air, and they jumped happily a few times, as if they were greeting an old friend, or as if they were condemning the other's rudeness, and then they flew back into Xiao's body.

"bass!"

The green spear was stuck in the ground, no longer as bright as before. The dragon shadow on the spear disappeared and turned into dots of fluorescence. Xiao felt a scrutinizing gaze cast from the black fog.

"I understand. I haven't dealt with your lineage much, so it's no wonder I didn't recognize you at first. Peng bird... I didn't expect you still have royal blood in the world. Although it's not the most direct bloodline of the Phoenix Clan, and it's even contaminated, it's indeed the most noble existence nowadays. No wonder it recognizes you so much."

Seeing that "Xiao" was still struggling to break free from the dragon claws, the being in the black fog spoke again, but this time its tone was filled with pampering towards a younger generation: "Why, do you still want to kill me? Why don't you look back?"

Hearing this, Xiao was stunned for a moment, with a hint of doubt on his face. But the next moment, his soul seemed to have sensed something and looked back, his blue eyes trembled, as if he saw something.

Cracks appeared in the illusion that he could not destroy, and in an instant a familiar figure rolled out from it in a panic, fell to the ground, and watched with lingering fear as the yellow sand behind him burst like a bubble.

Xiao lowered his eyes slightly, and when he saw that the quicksand had not chased him out, he breathed a sigh of relief. He was almost caught just now, and the quicksand that could not be cut off was really difficult to deal with. He didn't know what the situation was outside. Thinking of this, he turned around and met a pair of blue eyes. The eyes like beautiful jade contained emotions that he could not read, and he was a little dazed.

Xiao accidentally saw the tear marks in the corner of his other self's eyes, so he carefully sensed it and found that the other person did not look hurt. He pondered for a moment and then teased: "Why are you crying? I was not by your side for a while, and you were bullied and cried. What will you do if I disappear one day?"

“Eh?” Xiao came back to his senses, quickly retracted his gaze, and explained in a panic: “Uh, no, it’s just that sand got into my eyes…”

"Okay, okay, you want to say that you are not that fragile, I get it." "Xiao" interrupted him, smiling, and deliberately lengthened his tone. Then, he changed the subject and returned to his normal tone, "You don't seem to trust me to handle things, then, I'll leave the situation outside to you."

It looked like the opponent didn't want to continue fighting anymore. Since it had nothing to do with the battle and the other person was fine, he didn't bother to care.

"Outside?"

"Calm down?" Sensing that the murderous intent on Xiao had dissipated, the being in the black fog withdrew the dragon claw phantom, transformed it into a stone table and two stone chairs, and transformed itself into a handsome man in his early thirties and sat on the stone chair.

"Well, not bad. I haven't used this transformation technique for a long time, but it seems I haven't gotten rusty." He looked at the body, then realized that there was still someone here, so he coughed lightly to cover up the embarrassment on his face: "Oh? It turns out that someone else has been replaced. No problem, then let's sort out the misunderstanding just now."

Realizing that Xiao was going to fight to the death, Xiao thought the situation outside was very urgent. However, he came out and saw that apart from being pinned to the ground by the dragon's claws, he did not see any danger. However, the other party was indeed a person that he could not afford to offend, and he could not see through it at all. As for the familiar pain in his body, he judged based on his experience that it was mostly because of Xiao's mess.

"Yeah." Xiao came to the empty stone chair and sat down, his movements looking a little stiff.

"I almost forgot." Seeing this, the man raised his hand and shot a ray of pure power into Xiao's body. The pain in his body disappeared immediately, and he even felt that his realm was slowly improving. "Just now it was just a normal trial process, I have no ill intentions. My name is Zhuqing, and this is the space I am in charge of." The man laughed.

"Xiao." The young man introduced himself briefly.

Upon hearing this, Xiao snorted coldly: "But just now, he did use a killing move. But considering that he treated you, I will not pursue it."

Xiao lowered his eyes and showed a thoughtful expression. After a while, he nodded and waited for his next words.

"According to convention, since you have passed the trial, you should obtain the spear I possess, but..." Having said this, Zhu Qing paused, his eyes fell on Xiao's heart, which was the place where the red feather disappeared before.

"The purpose of the trial is to determine whether you are worthy of me, but the current result is - I, or to be more precise, this spear is not worthy of you. You should know that your power is extremely aggressive and can bring destruction if you are not careful. Ahem, I don't want the host I picked with so much effort to be destroyed by you."

"Xiao": "He has some self-awareness. How can such a broken gun be worthy of you?"

A flash of surprise and confusion flashed across Xiao's face. Could the magic weapons in the blessed land be so useless? And since you feel unworthy, why do you want to test yourself?

Zhu Qing seemed to see through his thoughts and continued, "Your situation is a bit special, just like a slowly flowing river. It looks calm on the surface, but only after you touch it can you discover the turbulent undercurrent hidden underneath. Although I have heard that people with the blood of demon beasts will entangle with their own evil thoughts and kill each other, I have never seen it with my own eyes, let alone a situation like you where you have two consciousnesses in one body at the same time. It is inevitable that there will be some mistakes in judgment."

“Xiao”: “That sounds nice, but to put it bluntly, you just don’t have much experience.”

"Sorry to bother you." Xiao stood up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhuqing.

"Are you going to look for a weapon that can carry your strength? That might disappoint you." Zhu Qing's voice came from behind, "I can see that you have great potential, but the strength of your body limits your performance. The other consciousness in your body should be very clear about this."

"Xiao": "I don't think it's enough. After all, I can't beat you, old man."

"The only things that can meet your expectations should be those in the forbidden area. After all, they were forged to bear power of that intensity." Zhu Qingshen said mysteriously.

"Forbidden area?" Xiao sat back down.

"Xiao": "Let's go. I think this old man has been idle for too long and wants to find someone to chat with. Don't waste your time on him. I'll help you find someone."

"But I don't recommend you to contact them now. With your current level, you are likely to be infected and controlled by them." Seeing the boy coming back, Zhu Qing showed a look of nostalgia:

"Only weapons with weapon spirits can be called divine weapons. They have extremely high upper limits and growth potential, and can meet the needs of characters at the top of the cultivation pyramid. But weapon spirits cannot be created out of thin air, which lays the seeds for what will happen next."

"Those strong men will eventually pass away, and the magic weapons they forged will be passed down to future generations. But those weapon spirits were also overlords in their lifetime. If they did not have some special agreement with their first masters, how could they be willing to be in the hands of the weak for a long time? In the end, the magic weapons degenerated into evil weapons and controlled their masters instead."

"Because this place is located in a special space, and it is filled with black fog that no living creature can resist, it has become a good place to hide things. In addition, because of a war in the past, the space here was shattered, and the laws of space are very chaotic. Therefore, people outside designated the most chaotic and difficult to reach area as a forbidden area, and placed some evil soldiers that have been heavily sealed there."

"Despite this, these evil soldiers still found a way to escape, causing considerable turmoil outside." Zhu Qing snorted self-deprecatingly and muttered in a low voice: "After all, they were once the pride of their own land, and they were not marked by this space."

Seeing that Xiao was thinking about something, Zhu Qing added: "Before you can hold on under my hands, I advise you not to have any ideas about those things. You are not at the same level as their life force, and it is easy for them to control you. If you really want a weapon that suits you, you can come to me after you find the materials that suit you, and I can make it for you."

"Are you there no matter what time I come?" Xiao raised his head.

"Of course." Zhu Qing waved his hand, and the green spear flew to the stone table. He stroked the spear and said, "This spear is of too low quality to contain my entire soul. Therefore, even if the spear is taken away, most of me will still remain in this Dragon Bone Abyss."

"So some spears from the Dragon Bone Abyss have weapon souls because..."

"Weapon spirits don't appear out of thin air." Zhu Qing repeated this sentence again, "Our bodies have long been destroyed. Before this black fog dissipates, the only fun we can have is to send out a wisp of soul to see the scenery outside."

Hearing this, Xiao also realized that this space was not simple, so he asked: "What exactly happened here?"

"You will know when the time comes. Before that, ignorance will make you fearless and happy." Zhu Qing said something ambiguous and changed the subject. His expression became serious.

"When you leave my territory, it's best to crush the token and leave the Dragon Bone Abyss. You have excellent qualifications and are likely to attract the attention of evil soldiers. We rely on the ability to change space to make the person we like appear in front of us, and they also have this ability. Although they will be restricted by the seal and geographical location, if they can be completely restricted, no evil soldier will be able to escape."

In response to his change of subject, "Xiao" snorted with disdain.
