Above the palace.

Shen Qinghan floated quietly in the slowly flowing water, like a beautiful woman from an ancient coffin who had been asleep for tens of thousands of years.

Her long, flowing, deep blue hair swayed gently in the current, creating a beautiful sight.

Lin Zichen had no time to admire the beauty and quickly swam to Shen Qinghan's side to check on her condition.

The moment he appeared above the palace.

The excited shouts inside the palace suddenly and eerily vanished in an instant.

Instead, a terrified scream suddenly rang out.

Don't sacrifice me!!!

"I don't want to die, I don't want to die!!!"

"God, save me!!!"

The terrified scream came abruptly.

Upon hearing the sound, Lin Zichen was startled, his expression changing slightly as he quickly looked down at the palace below.

Looking down, he saw an unbelievable scene.

The entire palace below is collapsing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The collapsed ruins instantly transformed into streaks of azure light that shot into the sky and poured into Shen Qinghan's Heavenly Gate.

These streaks of light moved extremely fast, looking like creatures fleeing a disaster, all scrambling to hide deep within Shen Qinghan's Heavenly Gate for protection.

The scene before him was completely beyond Lin Zichen's comprehension, leaving him momentarily at a loss.

He instinctively wanted to stop it from happening, but he didn't know how.

He didn't know whether the entry of these streams of light was good or bad for Shen Qinghan, or whether it would have any adverse effects on Shen Qinghan body.

He could only stare at Shen Qinghan's face, hoping that there wouldn't be any pain on her face.

Moments later, the entire palace collapsed.

It transformed into countless streams of azure light, all of which poured into the depths of Shen Qinghan's Heavenly Gate.

After the light disappeared.

The water that enveloped the palace, as well as the water that submerged the entire ground below, also rushed rapidly into Shen Qinghan's Heavenly Gate.

It only took a few short seconds.

The volume of water, enough to form a vast ocean, poured into the depths of Shen Qinghan's Heavenly Gate, disappearing completely from this world as if it had never existed.

Lin Zichen, who witnessed the entire process, had an expression of disbelief on his face and felt extremely shocked.

That was enough water to form a vast ocean, yet Shen Qinghan absorbed it all in just a few seconds?

How did you do that?

Could it be that Shen Qinghan's body is connected to another world, or that she possesses a small world within her?

Lin Zichen was completely baffled by this.

Although he was puzzled, he didn't dwell on it at this time.

Instead, he quickly calmed himself down, scooped up Shen Qinghan who was floating in the air, and carried her to a nearby towering tree to check on her condition.

Deep within the ancient Origin Land and Ruins.

Qi Qingmo raised her slender right hand and grabbed the man, whose Biological Rank was as high as Mythical Tier, from a distance, her five fingers tightly gripping his throat.

At the man's feet lay three shriveled corpses, reduced to skin and bones.

The three corpses were all Legendary, terrifying beings at the peak of the Tier 9 in life, but now their vital energy has been completely drained, leaving only worthless shells.

"You heretical cultivator, you heretical cultivator..."

The man, whose throat was being choked by Qi Qingmo from a distance, made a sound of extreme pain.

Having lived in the Origin Land for so many years, this was the first time he had encountered a humanoid creature that increased its strength by devouring the flesh and blood of other living beings. He was shocked and filled with fear.

Qi Qingmo ignored the man's words and quickly devised a plan, ruthlessly absorbing all the blood and energy from the man's body for her own use.

As his vital energy continues to drain away, the burly man is visibly shrinking.

In just a few seconds, the man went from a giant over three meters tall to a hunched old man who was less than 1.6 meters tall.

Skin and bones.

On the verge of death.

"You evil cultivator... you pose a tremendous threat to other Mythical Tier beings... the Origin Land will have nowhere to hide..."

In his final moments before dying, the man stared intently at Qi Qingmo, leaving her with these harsh words that carried a hint of threat.

Qi Qingmo remained unmoved, only slightly increasing the speed of his absorption. In just a few breaths, he drained the man, whose Biological Rank was as high as Mythical Tier, into a dried-up corpse, causing him to perish completely.

"Call--"

Having absorbed a large amount of vital energy in a short period of time, Qi Qingmo exhaled a deep breath.

Then, calm your mind and focus on sensing the strength of your Qi and blood within your body.

Seeing that his Qi and blood strength had reached a new level, Qi Qingmo rarely showed a faint smile.

He has now completely mastered the path of pure blood, and will no longer need to rely on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

There's no need to waste time studying the so-called Source Power.

The Origin Land the Southern Region.

Inside a bottomless cave.

A man with gloomy eyes, dressed in a long black robe, was hanging upside down on the cave wall, resting with his eyes closed.

"Puff--!"

Suddenly, a spraying sound of liquid rang out.

The man suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale.

His soul suffered severe damage, directly harming his foundation, and his strength declined somewhat.

"That woman in the Daoist robe is getting stronger and stronger..."

The man paused for a moment, then said this with a solemn expression.

He clearly remembered that when Qi Qingmo first appeared, his strength was only at the mid-level of the Legendary. He just had more and more strange methods, but nothing special.

However, only a few months later, Qi Qingmo had grown to the point where he could easily kill one of his Mythical Tier clones, which terrified him.

"It seems I need to notify some old friends to take action. We must join forces to deal with this woman in the Daoist robe, or the consequences will be dire..."

The man murmured softly.

After saying that, he took out a dark purple pill, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it in one gulp.

The moment he swallowed the pill, his deathly pale face immediately regained its color, showing no signs of the severe damage he had just suffered to his soul.

At this moment, a handsome young man flew in from outside, slowly hanging upside down beside the man, and said in an anxious tone:

"Father, why is Su Jiujiu from Qingqiu Ancient Mountain still unwilling to marry me? Didn't you go to Qingqiu Ancient Mountain once to act as a matchmaker for me?"

The young man was the Night King, and in this Qianyan Cave, he was second only to the Night King. From childhood to adulthood, he had whatever he wanted, and no one dared to disobey him.

But now, as the Night King, he has been rejected by the Holy Maiden of Qingqiu Ancient Mountain, which makes him feel extremely humiliated and angry.

The Night King, the man whose soul had just been severely injured, said calmly to the young man:

"Don't rush. In a few more days, Qingqiu Ancient Mountain will be completely occupied. Then you can have whichever fox demon you want, and maybe even have a go at the Mountain Master there."

"Father, is this really true?"

The young man's voice trembled slightly with excitement.

The fox demons in the Qingqiu Ancient Mountain are all stunningly beautiful.

The highest-ranking Mountain Master, in particular, possessed a captivating blend of innocence and allure, making him exceptionally alluring.

If I could become the Mountain Master's bed warmer and experience Mountain Master charm, then dying like this would be worthwhile.

To die beneath the peony blossoms, even as a ghost, is a romantic endeavor.

The area 40 li away from Gate 1.

Dangerous area.

On a towering giant tree.

Lin Zichen held Shen Qinghan in his arms and used his Mental Power to examine her body, carefully exploring every part of her body to see if there were any problems.

Lin Zichen was very worried about Shen Qinghan's health because so much water had just rushed into her Heavenly Gate.

After a thorough and careful inspection.

Lin Zichen discovered that Shen Qinghan's health was fine, and all her medical data were normal.

The data within the body are normal.

However, noticeable changes were observed in certain parts of the body outside the body.

For example, the hair color became more vibrant blue, and the hair texture became smoother.

When you run your fingers through it, it feels like touching water; the texture is so wonderful that you can't help but love it.

I wish I could be sorting it out all the time.

In addition, there were noticeable changes in the skin.

It has become more supple and moisturized.

It's no exaggeration to say that it's so tender that you could feel water just by gently squeezing it with your hands; it's truly magical.

"They say women are made of water. That's a compliment when applied to other women, but it's the truth when applied to this Little Dirty Girl.'"

Lin Zichen looked at Shen Qinghan in his arms and murmured something to himself.

After saying this, he recalled everything he had seen before the palace disappeared.

The palace gate plaque is inscribed with the three characters "Water God Palace".

Shouts about "gods" kept coming from inside the palace.

Shen Qinghan floated above the palace.

Connecting these images, Lin Zichen couldn't help but form a guess, a guess about Shen Qinghan's identity.

He guessed that Shen Qinghan was the Water God.

More accurately, it should be speculated that Shen Qinghan possesses the inheritance of the Water God.

This explains why Shen Qinghan's constitution is so unique.

"Lin Zi?"

Just as Lin Zichen was lost in thought, Shen Qinghan, who was in his arms, opened her eyes groggily and called out weakly.

Seeing that she was awake, Lin Zichen immediately asked in a gentle voice, "Is there anything wrong with your body?"

"I have a slight headache and feel weak."

Shen Qinghan said weakly, rubbing her head.

Lin Zichen continued, "Will it be very uncomfortable?"

Shen Qinghan's voice was still weak as she said, "It's okay, not too bad, it's more like motion sickness."

Lin Zichen breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, "It's good that you're alright."

Shen Qinghan sat up from Lin Zichen's arms and asked with a puzzled look, "Lin Zi, what happened while I was unconscious? Weren't we just trapped in a cage?"

Lin Zichen patiently explained to her, "It's like this..."

Fragrance that appeared suddenly.

Luo Qianxue's "betrayal".

The "betrayal" of the crowd.

The appearance of the Flower Vine Woman.

The appearance of the Water God Palace.

The collapse of the Water God Palace.

All the water was absorbed...

Lin Zichen used the most concise language to tell Shen Qinghan everything that had happened while Shen Qinghan was in a coma.

After hearing this, Shen Qinghan found it hard to believe and said:

"You said that the enormous Water God Palace collapsed into streams of light, all of which flowed into my Heavenly Gate, and then water comparable to a vast ocean also poured into my Heavenly Gate?"

"Right."

Lin Zichen nodded.

After receiving confirmation from Lin Zichen, Shen Qinghan's face was filled with disbelief.

She could hardly imagine that a volume of water large enough to form a vast ocean could all be poured into her Heavenly Gate.

How does Heavenly Gate, with its relatively small size, manage to hold so much water?

The more Shen Qinghan thought about it, the more puzzled she became.

Just then, she suddenly discovered that her Consciousness Sea had become much larger, and at the same time, she discovered that a huge palace was floating in her Consciousness Sea.

The palace gate plaque bears the three very conspicuous characters "Water God Palace".

Isn't this the palace Lin Zi was talking about?

Is all of this really true?

How is my Consciousness Sea able to do this?

Am I really Water God?

Thinking about this, Shen Qinghan felt a mix of emotions.

They are excited about the possibility of having a powerful identity.

However, at the same time, she felt somewhat awkward about this identity and was reluctant to accept that she had another identity besides Shen Qinghan.

She only wanted to be Shen Qinghan, her childhood sweetheart who grew up with Lin Zichen, and a beautiful young woman who had just turned 20. She didn't want to be the reincarnation of some ancient being.

"I hope I'm just a lucky human who inherited the legacy of some ancient being, rather than being the reincarnation of some ancient being..."

Shen Qinghan thought to herself.

After thinking for a moment, she looked up at Lin Zichen and said softly, "Lin Zi, I've discovered that my Consciousness Sea has grown much stronger, and I even saw the palace you mentioned inside the Consciousness Sea."

Is that palace in the Little Dirty Girl's Consciousness Sea?

Lin Zichen raised an eyebrow and asked, "Can your Mental Power enter the palace?"

Shen Qinghan: "I don't know, I'll give it a try."

After saying that, she released her Mental Power with a thought, skillfully guiding it to spread towards the palace in her Consciousness Sea, wanting to go inside and explore.

Then they discovered that when their Mental Power was about to touch the palace, it would be instantly repelled, making it impossible to enter.

"No, we can't get in. Our Mental Power will be repelled before it even touches the palace."

After several failed attempts, Shen Qinghan said to Lin Zichen.

After listening, Lin Zichen fell into deep thought. After a while, he said, "It's probably because our Mental Power isn't strong enough, or the way we entered was incorrect. We'll have to spend some time studying it carefully later."

Shen Qinghan replied obediently, "Yes, I'll study it more in the future."

As she said this, she continued to project her Mental Power, attempting to enter the palace.

But no matter how many times they tried, they always failed and were turned away from the palace.

"By the way, Lin Zi, could that palace we accidentally entered before, the one with the teleportation array and the two Golden Fruits, be related to the Water God Palace in my Consciousness Sea?"

Shen Qinghan suddenly realized this, as if she had discovered some secret, and quickly looked at Lin Zichen and asked.

Lin Zichen thought for a moment and analyzed, "There might be some connection, but I don't think it's significant. Before, you could not only enter the palace with the teleportation array, but you could also control the things inside at will. But now, you can't even enter the Water God Palace in your Consciousness Sea. The difference is too great."

Shen Qinghan nodded. "That's true."
