Chapter One: Rebirth

Twilight Cloud City, Han Family

Han Qi, who had been in a coma for more than three months, slowly opened his eyes. The light shining through the window was so bright and painful that he had to close them again.

'Where am I? How did I get here?' With these questions in mind, Han Qi opened her eyes again, her eyes adjusting to the light. Turning her head, she found a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl sleeping soundly beside her pillow. Han Qi didn't disturb her, but instead tried hard to remember how she got here.

The last memory was of the Demon Lord and the King of the Underworld fleeing in disarray.

"Young Master is awake! Young Master isn't dead!" The little maid beside him grabbed Han Qi's clothes and shouted excitedly.

"Where is this? Who are you?" "Young Master? Who is the Young Master?" At this moment, Han Qi slowly sat up straight on the bed and asked in confusion.

The little girl looked at Han Qi in horror and said, "I am Caixia, young master. Are you stupid? You don't even know that you are Han Qi, the eldest young master of the Han family in Muyun City?"

Hearing this, Han Qi became even more confused. He tried hard to recall and discovered that he actually had the memories of another person. He instantly understood that after his death, the other person had been resurrected in Han Qi's body for some reason.

'So I wasn't reincarnated after all, but was reborn in the body of the eldest young master of the Han family. Hmm, that's not bad. Since I'm here, I might as well make the best of it and take good care of this body,' Han Qi thought to himself.

Everyone in Muyun City knows that three months ago, Han Qi, the eldest young master of the Han family, was severely injured by the Lu family, and all his meridians were damaged, causing them to atrophy and die. His cultivation was completely dissipated, and he became a living dead man, still unconscious and a true cripple. If it weren't for the Lu family head obtaining a precious life-extending pill to temporarily save his life, Han Qi would probably have already died.

Indeed, Han Qi at this moment is the original Dan Zun War God who was supposed to be reincarnated, but has been reborn in Han Qi's body. In his previous life, he controlled the Heavenly Slayer Sword and unleashed extraordinary combat power. In this era where the strong are respected, he was hailed as the War God of Kunwu Mountain. But in this life, he has been reborn into the body of a young man whose meridians are damaged and whose cultivation has been completely dissipated.

Caixia looked at Han Qi, who was in a daze, and then burst into tears again: "Young Master, what's wrong with you? Are you really stupid? It's all my fault for not taking good care of you. It's all my fault."

"Silly girl, I'm fine. Look at me, I'm perfectly alright. You won't be pretty if your face is all messed up from crying," Han Qi said, ruffling Cai Xia's hair and laughing.

Caixia finally smiled through her tears, "Hehe, it's good that you're alright, young master. The past month or so that you were unconscious has been so tough on the family head. We've consulted several alchemists, but they all said you wouldn't make it unless they had the Nine-Turn Wind and Dew Pill to restore your life force. But the Nine-Turn Wind and Dew Pill is extremely precious, and there's nowhere to buy it." After saying that, she seemed to remember something, and then said with a serious expression, "Young master, more than half a month ago, the family head and the third young master went to Fire Cloud City. I heard that there are more alchemists there, and maybe they can find a way to save you."

After listening to Caixia's words, Han Qi said emotionally, "You've all gone through so much trouble. You should go and rest now. Don't worry about me, I'm fine."

"Then young master, please rest well. You called me again, so I'll stay outside," Caixia said before leaving.

In his previous life, Han Qi's meridians were of the middle grade of the Heaven Rank, a rare and excellent grade. Although he was only nineteen years old, his cultivation had already reached the seventh level of the Body Refinement Realm, making him an outstanding individual among his peers and someone on whom the Han family placed high hopes.

The meridians are classified into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Mysterious, and Yellow. Each level is further divided into three grades: Upper, Middle, and Lower.

Cultivation realms are divided into: Body Refining Realm, Core Breaking Realm, Profound Realm, Yuan Condensation Realm, Tribulation Manifestation Realm, Holy Infant Realm, King Realm, Eternal Life Realm, and Divine Transformation Realm. Each realm is further divided into nine levels.

Cultivation level is closely related to the grade of meridians. Meridian grade can be considered a talent for cultivation, and it is very difficult to improve the grade of meridians. The higher the grade of meridians, the higher the cultivation level that can be achieved.

Therefore, Han Qi has a great talent for cultivation and his future is limitless. It's just a pity that his meridians are now damaged and about to atrophy and die. The necrosis of his meridians will not only cause him to lose his ability to cultivate, but will also affect his normal activities.

Han Qi plans to examine his new body to see if his injured meridians have a chance to be repaired, since he believes his cultivation in alchemy in his previous life was unmatched by most.

He sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and released his divine sense into his body to begin examining it.

After examining his body, Han Qi frowned. He discovered that most of his meridians were beginning to shrink, but there was a fist-sized red crystal in his life palace, which was melting at an extremely slow rate and merging into his blood. The crystal seemed familiar, but he couldn't quite place what it was.

"Five Spirit Essences, yes, it must be, there's no mistaking this feeling. The ancient supreme technique of the Primordial Five Spirits Sacred Art that he cultivated in his previous life allowed him to condense the Five Spirit Essences. When he fell as a war god in his previous life, his soul resided in these essences. After leaving the nurturing of his life palace, it became this red crystal, and this crystal appeared in Han Qi's life palace by chance." Han Qi understood all this, and his mind suddenly became clear.

Having inherited Han Qi's body and memories, everything around him felt both strange and familiar. He wanted to go out and move around to adapt to his new body as quickly as possible, but at the same time, he had to keep this a secret.

It was nearly noon, and Han Qi got up to wash and change his dirty clothes. Now he wore a white brocade robe with silver silk threads embroidered on the collar and cuffs, looking dashing and radiant, showing no signs of illness. After examining himself, he felt confident. With his Five Elements Essence and his alchemy skills, he was not without a way to repair his meridians. So he wrote down a prescription, tucked it into his robes, and left the house.

"Greetings, young master."

"Greetings, young master."

The servants were astonished as Han Qi walked along, looking at him as if he were a monster. It's understandable; the sudden appearance of a living dead man who had been in a coma for over a month was indeed quite a novel experience.

"Is the young master alright? The patriarch only left yesterday, he shouldn't be back so soon, right?"

"Young Master is awake! That's wonderful! But his meridians are severely injured. I wonder if he'll still be able to cultivate?"

As soon as Han Qi walked over, the servants began to whisper among themselves. Normally, when Han Qi heard these words, he would simply nod and smile at the servants to greet them.

Passersby pointed and whispered among themselves, as everyone in Muyun City knew about what had happened three months ago. Han Qi, however, paid no heed. Possessing the memories of his previous life, he was also very familiar with the place and quickly entered the Han family's herbal shop, 'Han's Herbal Hall'. The Han family's main business was herbal medicine, and Han's Herbal Hall was renowned throughout Muyun City, with branches almost all over the city. It primarily supplied the Lin family with pills, and a small portion was supplied to the Lu family.

The old shopkeeper, Han Jinming, immediately greeted Han Qi upon seeing him, excitedly saying, "Young Master, you're alright! That's wonderful! Please come inside and have a seat." He gestured for Han Qi to enter the inner room.

"Uncle Ming, no need to trouble yourself. I'm just here to find a few herbs," Han Qi said politely, waving his hand slightly.

"A defeated opponent dares to show his face again."

Han Qi had only taken two steps when he heard the sound and immediately stopped. Turning around, his veins bulged on his forehead, his eyes widened, and he looked as if he wanted to tear the person in front of him apart. The man outside the door was around twenty years old, dressed in yellow brocade with golden auspicious clouds embroidered on his robe. He stood with his arms crossed. This man was none other than Lu Yong, the son of the city lord of Muyun City. Behind him were two thugs dressed in gray battle robes, with soft armor around their waists and carrying large swords on their shoulders. They were all burly and had fierce faces. They were clearly not good people. Lu Yong was squinting at Han Qi with contempt. He was the culprit who had seriously injured Han Qi's meridians. The anger he exuded was Han Qi's obsession from his lifetime. It seemed that he had to put an end to it, or this obsession would be hard to quell.

Seeing Han Qi's angry expression, Lu Yong felt a sense of accomplishment and further provoked him, saying, "With your meridians completely destroyed, you'll probably be nothing but a piece of trash from now on. What's the use of being angry? It's just bringing shame upon yourself." After saying that, he laughed, and the two people behind him also had mocking and disdainful expressions on their faces.

"Who do you think you are? We haven't settled the score from last time, and you're already causing trouble on my Han family's territory again!" Han Qi shouted.

The head manager, Han Jinming, immediately pulled Han Qi aside and said, "Young Master, there are many of them. A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. Don't fall into their trap."

By this time, a large crowd had gathered outside Han's Herbal Hall. Lu Yong's arrogance and cruelty were common knowledge in Muyun City, and everyone dared not speak out against him. The incident a month ago, where Lu Yong caused trouble at the Han family's shop and even severely injured Han Qi, had already become widely known. Unfortunately, the Han family was not strong enough to contend with the Lu family; otherwise, they would have faced annihilation. There was already a precedent for this. The Nangong family was no weaker than the Han family, yet they had vanished from Muyun City.
