A great peal of laughter suddenly rang out. Li Qingshan slapped his knee. “I just knew you’re all so tasteless, so I purposefully tested you first! Starting Point dwelling… hahahaha…”
The corner of Rāhu Xiaoming’s eye twitched, “I really want to beat him up!” Gu Yanying rolled her eyes. “It’s a pity that you can’t beat him!”
Xiao An lowered her head. “Sad.”
Li Qingshan rubbed her head. “My Xiao An is obviously an exception, but since it’s called the Dragon’s Pool dwelling, then let’s just go with that! We truly cannot stay here for too long, just in case any ‘guests’ end up visiting. We need to find a new dwelling as soon as possible, a place to gain a footing. You can stay here for now and cultivate! Though, don’t attempt the tribulation just yet. I’m afraid it’ll attract the attention of some observant people.”
Xiao An said, “Dummy Qingshan, do we need you to tell us that? So mouthy.”
Li Qingshan’s smile stiffened. Xiao An began to laugh.
Gu Yanying smiled. “Make sure the new dwelling isn’t too disappointing!”
“Don’t worry, it’ll definitely be a good one.”
Li Qingshan rubbed Xiao An’s cheeks viciously before waving his hand and making his way out the entrance.
With a rumble, the stone door swung open. Radiant sunlight poured in, swallowing his figure.
The sun beat down harshly. It was currently the height of summer. The rising and falling forests in the mountains were verdant. The green colour was so dense that it seemed like it was about to flow down the mountains. With a breeze, the smell of vegetation would fill his face. Coupled with the cries of birds, it was a sight brimming with life.
However, there was nothing particularly special about all of this. If it were not for the spiritual qi being extraordinarily dense, it basically would have made him think he had returned to the nine provinces and was currently standing on Crouching Ox hill, gazing at the Boundless mountains.
Having formally set foot in the six realms of saṃsāra, he felt like he had just gone through a cycle himself. However, when he looked back, there was no hamlet, only towering mountains that trailed like a dragon.
Li Qingshan casually picked up a rock and crushed it, sensing the changes in his power.
“It’s almost equivalent to dropping a major realm of cultivation or maybe even more than that. If I assume the physique of the demonic and divine right now, I probably won’t even reach three hundred metres. That’s absolutely fantastic for cultivation. How interesting.”
“But sure enough, as I had expected, the laws of the world are now restraining. Otherwise, the birds and beasts would all have their lifespans drastically lengthened even if they don’t become daemons in an environment with such dense spiritual qi. Once their lifespans are lengthened, their chances to become daemons are drastically increased. As the paragons of nature, probably all humans would be blessed in terms of physique, with the talent to become cultivators. If that’s the case, this place probably wouldn’t be called the Human realm anymore.”
Apart from the Dragon’s Pool dwelling behind him, there were no signs of human activity in the surroundings. That was expected too. Even when mortals became rich, they would build their manors in places of fine scenery. Cultivators would all choose to build their dwellings in blessed lands where spiritual veins converged, so it was even less likely for them to be gathered together. Otherwise, even he would not be bold enough to emerge from the main entrance in such an open fashion.
However, that did not mean this place was safe. The Dragon’s Pool dwelling must have been located within the Myriad sect’s range of influence. With the speed that cultivators could move at, anyone could come looking for Si Long at any time. If they noticed anything amiss, they would definitely investigate.
With their strength, they could not even defeat a Human Sovereign right now, not to mention the fact that the strongest cultivator of the Myriad sect would definitely be far more than just a Human Sovereign. Even if none of this occurred, cultivation required peace of mind, so how could they remain uneasy at all times? Even undergoing tribulations required great caution, so they had to find another dwelling as a new base.
However, as this was his first time in the Human realm, he was in an unfamiliar land without any acquaintances. Consequently, he had no idea where to go to learn more about his surroundings. He was about to choose a random direction to travel off in when he suddenly wrinkled his nose. Then he extended his hand and grasped a wisp of the wind, bringing it up to his nose and sniffing hard.
“Hmm? The scent of humans!”
He grinned, like a daemon that was about to hunt down some humans. With a leap, he plunged down the enormous cliff.
The mountain wind whistled past his ears as a green pool filled his eyes.
With a splash, the greenness shattered, and he fell into the pool. He sank over thirty metres deep, but the bottom was still not in sight. Perhaps this was the reason why it was called the Dragon’s Pool.
The sunlight penetrated the water, glistening in the ripples. He raised his head and stared at this. After a moment of consideration, he swam upwards.
By the time he had emerged from the pool and the water droplets had rolled off him, his scarlet eyes and scarlet hair had already become black eyes and black hair, having combined his daemon form with his original appearance as a human. He was still extraordinarily handsome, but no longer just a daemon all the way through.
He obviously had to move about as a human in the Human realm, but even when he erased all of his daemon qi, he struggled to hide the wildness and violence of a Daemon King. Even with his human identity, he practised a cultivation method of great fierceness and brutality, the Sovereign’s Limit Record of World Destruction. Basically all that he was missing was having the words “bad person” engraved on his head. It really was not suited for gathering information on anything.
With a wave of his hand, the pool settled down, becoming smooth like a mirror. He crouched down and checked his reflection, which made him frown. He immediately began to radiate with murderousness like a crouching tiger, enough to give other people chills.
“The tiger demon is too vicious! The phoenix is too proud, the spirit turtle is too cold, while the ape demon is just a goofball. It probably goes out looking for fun uncontrollably, or should I say trouble. The ox demon is not bad. It’s reasonably honest-looking, but it’s a little unreasonable, unfortunately..”
He muttered to himself as he assumed a variety of expressions, ranging from being reserved to being indifferent. It was like he was changing his face. Every single expression differed drastically from the others, almost as if he was a different person altogether. They were the various special characteristics of the transformations of the demonic and divine. Not only did it influence his appearance and his bearing, but it even affected the way he behaved from within and his upcoming cultivation.
An expression flashed past his face, and his eyes lit up. He patted his right cheek three times, and his expression changed three times. Then he patted his left cheek gently, finally capturing the expression that had just flashed past. He smiled in satisfaction.
In the reflection, his face was filled with kindness, feeling enthusiasm from the bottom of his heart towards all life in the world, such that he could not bring himself to harm even a single blade of grass or an ant.
In particular, his eyes actually seemed to be green, like the willow leaves swaying in the spring breeze, gentle and flexible, yet also like the seawater under the summer sun, filled with delightful vigour. It even seemed rather innocent. With a smile, he seemed like a boy.
This was the benevolence that lay in the depths of his heart, which made the Qilin Transformation even more vivid.
He touched his face and smiled. “Alright, this is the one. We’ll go with this face. If anyone dares to call me a bad person, I’ll twist off their heads. I have to practise the Qilin’s Conventions of Longevity too, so it’s perfect.”
He turned around and made his way into the forest, running off in the direction of the human scent.
He crossed over mountains and travelled over fifty kilometres when a foul smell suddenly hit him. With a roar, a striped tiger leapt out from the forest, twice as large as a regular tiger. It was almost close to becoming a daemon, glaring at Li Qingshan and blocking his path.
Li Qingshan erased all of his aura, which made him seem even more like a mortal. Gazing at the tiger in his way, he did not rush over. Instead, he stopped and smiled at the tiger.
The tiger studied him doubtfully, pressing closer with each step. Suddenly, it met his eyes, lowered its head, and slowly backed away, opening up a path like a loyal general facing his benevolent lord.
Li Qingshan’s smile grew wider. “Good kitty. We really are related. You should stick more to a vegetarian diet and eat less meat in the future. May you become a daemon soon.”
The tiger called out like it was answering him, bounding back into the forest.
“Haha, sure enough, this move is effective. Let’s just win people over by virtue in the future!”
Li Qingshan continued forwards, making his way through the thick jungle. As he approached the human scent, he actually became slightly excited. He could not help but slow down. These were humans of the Human realm.
Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows, becoming rather puzzled. There were quite a lot of people in the surroundings, but why were they all hiding behind trees, and why did they give off the faint smell of blood?
With a swish, a blade extended in front of him with a flash. A burly man walked out from a tree with a vicious expression. He was bare-chested, rippling with muscle.
“Oi! Kid, I built this road and planted this tree. If you want to pass through here, pay up!”
Li Qingshan was taken aback. He felt overwhelmed. He thought in disbelief, I’m actually getting robbed?
The burly man instead lowered the blade in his hand and smiled. “This kid has been frightened out of his wits. Brothers, come on out!”
Over a dozen bandits emerged from the trees, studying Li Qingshan like he was cattle. They discussed all at once.
“This kid is empty-handed. He doesn’t seem like a merchant, nor does he seem like he’s just passing by. Who is he exactly?”
“Who knows, he might also be a fool seeking out immortals.”
“Haha, there’s been plenty of fools like that recently. Why don’t they take a piss and check themselves in the reflection! Do they really think they’re worthy? If he really is, then we’ll be able to have a feast again.”
“Though, he does look like he’s penniless. He doesn’t look too bad, so he might be able to fetch a pretty penny!”
“Let’s just eat him instead!”
Li Qingshan returned to his senses, about to turn against them and butcher them all immediately. Then he remembered he had just decided on his way of conduct in the Human realm. These were also the first group of people he had encountered in the Human realm. Even if it was only for the sake of cultivation, he could not be carried away by their tune immediately.
“Whatever, you’re lucky today. I’ll treat it as the heavens watching over you. I’m going to win people over by virtue now. By virtue!”
He repeatedly muttered “by virtue” as he stared at the bandit leader at the front. He smiled. “My friend, just do me a favour this time!”
The bandit leader stood there blankly as if he had been drawn away by his strange, charming eyes.
Li Qingshan smiled, about to make his way around him.
The bandit leader abruptly flew into a rage and brought his blade to Li Qingshan’s neck. “You sure are bold, kid, treating me like your friend! Kneel down right now, bow your head three times, call me grandaddy three times, and I’ll do you a favour!”
The qilin was the sovereign of all beasts. Even just a hint of its aura could repel vicious tigers. However, even if humans could be influenced by an aura of benevolence, they did not change their minds so easily. After all, qilins did not possess the same power of bewitchment like nine-tailed foxes.
Li Qingshan fell silent for a moment. He squeezed out a sentence between his teeth. “Fucking hell, the Human realm sure is unfriendly!”

The bandits raised a ruckus. “Sure enough, he’s a fool! Why don’t you take a look at what we do for a living! Do you really think you can get past us with just a few words?”
“Every single one of us here is your grandaddy. We all require three bows, and we all need to be called grandaddy three times. The one in front of you is your first grandaddy. I’m your second grandaddy…”
The bandit leader smiled viciously. “If you dare to say no, I’ll dig out your heart right now and eat it with wine!”
“Good idea!”
The bandit leader blanked out for a moment, only to see that Li Qingshan had fished out a wine gourd from somewhere. After that, he polished off a bloody heart in just a few bites, sucking the blood from his fingers with relish.

A great peal of laughter suddenly rang out. Li Qingshan slapped his knee. “I just knew you’re all so tasteless, so I purposefully tested you first! Starting Point dwelling… hahahaha…”
The corner of Rāhu Xiaoming’s eye twitched, “I really want to beat him up!” Gu Yanying rolled her eyes. “It’s a pity that you can’t beat him!”

Gazing at the tiger in his way, he did not rush over. Instead, he stopped and smiled at the tiger.The tiger studied him doubtfully, pressing closer with each step. Suddenly, it met his eyes, lowered its head, and slowly backed away, opening up a path like a loyal general facing his benevolent lord.Li Qingshan's smile grew wider. Good kitty. We really are related. You should stick more to a vegetarian diet and eat less meat in the future. May you become a daemon soon.The tiger called out like it was answering him, bounding back into the forest.Haha, sure enough, this move is effective. Let's just win people over by virtue in the future!Li Qingshan continued forwards, making his way through the thick jungle. As he approached the human scent, he actually became slightly excited. He could not help but slow down. These were humans of the Human realm.Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows, becoming rather puzzled. There were quite a lot of people in the surroundings, but why were they all hiding behind trees, and why did they give off the faint smell of blood?With a swish, a blade extended in front of him with a flash. A burly man walked out from a tree with a vicious expression. He was bare-chested, rippling with muscle.Oi! Kid, I built this road and planted this tree. If you want to pass through here, pay up!Li Qingshan was taken aback. He felt overwhelmed. He thought in disbelief,I'm actually getting robbed?The burly man instead lowered the blade in his hand and smiled. This kid has been frightened out of his wits. Brothers, come on out!Over a dozen bandits emerged from the trees, studying Li Qingshan like he was cattle. They discussed all at once.This kid is empty-handed. He doesn't seem like a merchant, nor does he seem like he's just passing by. Who is he exactly?Who knows, he might also be a fool seeking out immortals.Haha, there's been plenty of fools like that recently. Why don't they take a piss and check themselves in the reflection! Do they really think they're worthy? If he really is, then we'll be able to have a feast again.Though, he does look like he's penniless. He doesn't look too bad, so he might be able to fetch a pretty penny!Let's just eat him instead!Li Qingshan returned to his senses, about to turn against them and butcher them all immediately. Then he remembered he had just decided on his way of conduct in the Human realm. These were also the first group of people he had encountered in the Human realm. Even if it was only for the sake of cultivation, he could not be carried away by their tune immediately.Whatever, you're lucky today. I'll treat it as the heavens watching over you. I'm going to win people over by virtue now. By virtue!He repeatedly muttered by virtue as he stared at the bandit leader at the front. He smiled. My friend, just do me a favour this time!The bandit leader stood there blankly as if he had been drawn away by his strange, charming eyes.Li Qingshan smiled, about to make his way around him.The bandit leader abruptly flew into a rage and brought his blade to Li Qingshan's neck. You sure are bold, kid, treating me like your friend! Kneel down right now, bow your head three times, call me grandaddy three times, and I'll do you a favour!The qilin was the sovereign of all beasts. Even just a hint of its aura could repel vicious tigers. However, even if humans could be influenced by an aura of benevolence, they did not change their minds so easily. After all, qilins did not possess the same power of bewitchment like nine-tailed foxes.Li Qingshan fell silent for a moment. He squeezed out a sentence between his teeth. Fucking hell, the Human realm sure is unfriendly!Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World . Site OnlyThe bandits raised a ruckus. Sure enough, he's a fool! Why don't you take a look at what we do for a living! Do you really think you can get past us with just a few words?Every single one of us here is your grandaddy. We all require three bows, and we all need to be called grandaddy three times. The one in front of you is your first grandaddy. I'm your second grandaddyThe bandit leader smiled viciously. If you dare to say no, I'll dig out your heart right now and eat it with wine!Good idea!The bandit leader blanked out for a moment, only to see that Li Qingshan had fished out a wine gourd from somewhere. After that, he polished off a bloody heart in just a few bites, sucking the blood from his fingers with relish.
