Although the strange light on the sea had vanished, Nezha and Ao Bing's vigilance remained undiminished. The mysterious disappearance of Shen Gongbao and his mention of the "Ancient Existence" loomed over them like a dark cloud, heralding an impending storm.
In the early morning, Nezha woke up earlier than usual. He tiptoed out of bed, not wanting to disturb the still-sleeping Ao Bing. During this time, Ao Bing had been busy researching the Dragon Clan Ancient Texts, often working late into the night, making it rare for him to get a good night's sleep.
Standing on the balcony, Nezha gazed at the horizon gradually lightening in the distance and took a deep breath of fresh air. He extended his palm, attempting to gather the Demon Sphere Power. A ball of golden flame flickered in his hand, more stable than before, but Nezha knew it was still far from enough.
"You’re up early," Ao Bing's voice came from behind him, laced with the laziness of someone just waking up.
Nezha turned around to see Ao Bing leaning against the doorframe, his hair slightly tousled but his eyes already alert.
"Sorry for waking you," Nezha said with a hint of guilt.
Ao Bing shook his head and walked over to Nezha's side. "No, I set an alarm. We have a lot to do today."
Nezha extinguished the flame in his palm and wrapped an arm around Ao Bing's shoulder. "Have you found any new clues?"
Ao Bing's expression turned serious. "Last night I reviewed some of the oldest Dragon Clan Classics, which mentioned an entity called 'Yuan.'"
"'Yuan'?" Nezha repeated the unfamiliar name.
Ao Bing nodded. "According to the records, 'Yuan' was one of the most powerful beings in ancient times who mastered Yuan Energy. He was obsessed with its power and attempted to transform himself into a pure Yuan Energy entity, ultimately leading to a great disaster. The Dragon Ancestor joined forces with other races to seal 'Yuan' in the deepest part of the sea."
Nezha furrowed his brow. "Do you think Shen Gongbao's 'Ancient Existence' refers to this 'Yuan'?"
"Very likely," Ao Bing said with concern in his eyes. "If it's true, then the situation is more serious than we imagined. 'Yuan's' power is said to far exceed that of the Dragon Tribe and Demon Orb; even in a sealed state, his will can influence the real world."
Nezha clenched his fists. "Then we need to intensify our training. No matter how strong our enemy is, we cannot stand by idly."
Ao Bing smiled slightly, determination shining in his eyes. "That's exactly what I was thinking. My father has arranged special training to help me better master the ancient methods of the Dragon Tribe. What about you?"
"I've scheduled a session with Aunt Taiyi," Nezha replied. "She said she could teach me some advanced techniques for controlling Demon Sphere Power."
After a simple breakfast, they each set off for their training sessions. Nezha headed to a secluded valley on the outskirts of town, where Taiyi Zhenren had set up a secret training ground; Ao Bing returned to the Dragon Palace for guidance from the Dragon Elders.
In the valley, Taiyi Zhenren had been waiting for some time. She was no longer the warm-hearted Dormitory Office lady but wore a Daoist robe, her expression solemn and exuding an ethereal aura.
"Finally here," Taiyi Zhenren said with a smile upon seeing Nezha. "I thought you might have backed out at the last minute."
Nezha scratched his head awkwardly. "Aunt Taiyi, how could I back out? There was just some traffic on my way here."
Taiyi Zhenren waved her hand dismissively. "Just joking. Come on; today we will conduct a special training session."
She led Nezha deeper into the valley to a small lake with crystal-clear water reflecting the blue sky and white clouds. In the center of the lake was a flat boulder that looked like a natural platform.
"Stand on that rock," Taiyi Zhenren instructed. "I will teach you how to guide Demon Sphere Power from your innermost depths, not just its superficial application."
