Danzun War God

Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Water-Born Curse

There was a small door on the right side of the council hall. The two filed through it and walked along the corridor for a while. They arrived at the back of the main hall, where there was a row of rooms, about a dozen in total, separated from the main hall in front. All the rooms were built against the mountain and distributed in a staggered manner. Rather than saying they were built against the mountain, it would be more accurate to say that they were built directly into the mountainside.

Tang Siyu then turned around and said, "If you want to come here, you don't have to go through the main hall. You can go over there too." She pointed to the left.

Following the direction Tang Siyu pointed, Han Qi saw a path leading to the front of the main hall.

Tang Siyu leaped into the air and landed directly in front of the house on the left side of the middle at the top. Han Qi followed closely behind and flew up as well.

Tang Siyu pushed the door open and said, "Here, this is your training room. It's not a big room, but it should be enough for you."

Han Qi stepped inside and saw that the space was only about two zhang square, with a stone table and two stone stools, and nothing else. The room had no windows, and a few luminous pearls were embedded in the walls for lighting. After walking around, Han Qi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Not bad, this is just right for my cultivation. But where is your cultivation room, Senior Sister?"

Tang Siyu smiled slightly and said, "It's the one on your right." She pointed lightly with her hand and then said, "But it's not convenient for you to visit." She chuckled as she spoke.

"Fine, don't look then. Don't be so stingy," Han Qi muttered.

Tang Siyu was about to leap down when she heard You're so hungry that she asked, "What are you muttering about?"

"Nothing, I meant where the lounge is," Han Qi quickly called out.

Tang Siyu then flew down, and Han Qi had no choice but to follow.

In front of the bottom row of rooms, Tang Siyu said, "These first row of rooms are the rest rooms, but unlike the training rooms, you can choose any of the rest rooms."

Han Qi glanced at Tang Siyu and said, "Then I'll choose the one slightly to the left of the middle." He then stepped forward and pushed open the door.

The room was about the same size as the training room, and there was nothing inside except a bed. Unlike the training room, the rest room had a large window and no luminous pearls.

Tang Siyu said, "I'm glad you like it. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

"Okay, goodbye then, senior sister!"

Tang Siyu went directly to her cultivation room, while Han Qi looked around and then entered his own cultivation room.

"Kid, how are you planning to thank me?" the fire qilin in the soul sea asked.

"I really should thank you. Just tell me what you want. As long as I have it and can afford it, I'll give it to you."

"Well, as I said, I'll stay in your soul sea until I see the Demon King. Anyway, you'll have to go to the Demon Realm sooner or later."

Han Qi was taken aback and said, "The Demon Realm? Why would I go to the Demon Realm?"

"Didn't you want to collect all five elemental pearls? You'll have no chance of collecting them all if you don't go to the Demon Realm. Don't tell me you don't know the Wood Elemental Pearl is in the Demon Realm."

Han Qi was secretly delighted upon hearing this. It turned out that the Wood Spirit Orb was actually in the Demon Realm. It seemed that he really had to make a trip to the Demon Realm. He then said, "I know, but I just found out." After saying that, he winked at the Fire Qilin.

The fire unicorn rolled its eyes at him and said, "Then it's settled. I'm going back to sleep. Don't bother me with trivial matters, and definitely don't bother me with important matters. I'm going to sleep." After saying that, it yawned, closed its eyes again, and rested its head on the Refining Heaven Stone to sleep.

Han Qi pouted and said, "You really shouldn't be called the Beast King, you should be called the God of Sleep." Then the Fire Qilin rolled over and covered its ears.

Han Qi took out the "Water-Born Spell" and carefully read through it. He discovered that only people with water-based talents could learn the Water-Born Spell. Of course, the Water-Born Spell also required the support of the cultivator's profound energy, and its power varied depending on the amount of profound energy provided by the cultivator.

The amount of profound energy stored in Han Qi's dantian was astonishing, probably unprecedented. It was perfect for this martial art, and Han Qi couldn't help but beam with joy. It was practically a martial art tailor-made for him.

Han Qi immediately began to comprehend the profound mysteries of the manual. As he grasped the secret, the profound energy within his body began to circulate. Five streams of profound energy intertwined within his life palace, flowing along the meridians of his entire body to the dantian, and then flowing out from the dantian back to his life palace along the meridians, completing a cycle. However, as Han Qi applied the incantations in the manual, the profound energy flowing from the lower left of his life palace gradually increased in size, far surpassing the other four streams.

Han Qi possesses all five attributes, with each stream of energy representing a different attribute of Xuan Qi. Normal people only have one stream of Xuan Qi, which is a single-attribute talent; ordinary people do not have Xuan Qi at all.

At this moment, Han Qi's water-attribute profound energy took the lead, and began to circulate at high speed along the saint-level meridians throughout his body. The flow of profound energy in each cycle was also incredibly large. Even Han Qi himself was very shocked. Subconsciously, he knew that his meridians were not weak, belonging to the earth-level meridians in the four stages of heaven, earth, profundity, and yellow. He did not expect that the flow of profound energy that the saint-level bloodline could withstand was nearly a hundred times that of the earth-level meridians.

Three days passed, and Han Qi had fully comprehended the Water-Generating Spell. However, he couldn't use it due to the limited space in the alchemy room. So, he opened the door and went out, aiming to use it on the mountain behind the cultivation room. As soon as he took flight, it felt like he crashed directly into a wall. Han Qi fell to the ground, seeing stars and wincing in pain.

"There's a barrier here. Oh well, let's just go down the mountain!" Han Qi muttered to himself, rubbing his head as he walked, still wondering why there was a barrier here and what it was for.

Although Han Qi had questions, he didn't want to linger here any longer. He decided to go down the mountain first and see if there was a chance to go to the top of Copper Demon Mountain, because that was his ultimate goal.

When Han Qi returned to the foot of the mountain, he ran into Qin Wuyang. Qin Wuyang immediately grabbed him and said, "Where have you been these past few days? I waited for you all day and you didn't come back. Luckily, I ran into Elder Lanmo and found out that the Grand Hall Master has already accepted you as his disciple. Also, the elders in the living area should have assigned you a new place to live, as well as clothes and pills. Let's go and get them."

Han Qi looked helplessly at Qin Wuyang, who was now wearing the Taoist robe of the God and Demon Palace and looked quite handsome. So he said, "Let's go! We'll talk on the way."

The two then headed towards the distribution point to collect their items. Qin Wuyang looked at Han Qi, whose face was glowing, and said, "You're in great spirits, isn't that thanks to Tang Siyu?" With a mischievous grin, he nudged Han Qi with his shoulder.

Han Qi rolled her eyes at him, annoyed: "You filthy thing! I've been on a mission from my sect these past few days, to develop a cultivation technique within ten days. I've been in seclusion these past few days, unlike you who's always tinkering with all sorts of nonsense."
