Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

At the center of Shuixian Peak, silver-white pure water flows from the heights, cascading down like a waterfall; at first glance it looks as if the Milky Way hangs inverted.

The drop is nearly three thousand zhang, yet it does not splash a single spray.

One part transforms into a curtain.

One part gathers into pooled water.

The pooled water forms a lake, no ripples visible, like a giant glazed mirror.

Light and shadow interweave within the lake, seemingly reflecting different scenes; watching it is quite profound and mysterious.

Nine surrounding water pulses represent different waters, or rather attributes.

Living water, cold water, boiling water, weak water, heavy water, bone-eroding water, phantom dream water, empty clarity water, reverse-flow water — at their convergence floats an island.

On the island, one in front and one behind, stand two buildings.

In the middle is a palace, built from ten-thousand-year profound ice mixed with water; above is a water-drop-shaped dome, flowing water patterns on the walls swim like living things, and the hall doors are two enormous water curtains.

Named "Canglan Hall".

On the other side, built behind the waterfall's curtain, is a suspended pavilion that moves slowly in the water mist; gauze curtains hang around it, and it emits a ding-dong sound from time to time.

Named "Yinhan Pavilion".

In the very center, not only is there no building, but instead a circular platform.

No walls, only twelve water pillars surrounding it, with a Mirror Heart Stone embedded in the middle.

These water pillars — who knows what they are doing — sometimes rise, sometimes fall.

And then, encircling these things, various patterns are carved, dense and packed, their shapes all the more bizarre and varied, seemingly the flow directions of the myriad rivers and lakes of the outside world.

Hu Bugui asked in astonishment: "Master, how come we can't see anyone else?"

Xu Linyuan pointed straight downward: "Where we are is Outer Water; there are basically no Water Spirit Root disciples here.

Pass through below and it becomes Inner Water; those Immortal Masters, Core Disciples, and the like all live inside, thereby absorbing more Water Spiritual Energy."

Xu Zhangqing asked curiously: "Then which side is Lao Zhao enduring the thunder on?"

Xu Linyuan shrugged: "That side would disturb their normal lives, so we'll just do it here.

Because an Illusion Array exists, it won't affect the people of Inner Water; they might not even sense that anything happened."

Xu Zhangqing always felt this "Illusion Array" was no small matter.

Generally speaking, only Earth Spirit Root disciples can become Array Masters.

But from the looks of it, Shuixian Peak seems to possess a unique Illusion Array system.

Just don't know what the specific effects, functions, and capabilities actually are.

Xu Linyuan looked at Zhao Ziyue: "Don't rush; let's use the Illusion Array's ability to temporarily simulate the situation of encountering Turbid Thunder, so you can have some mental preparation."

Zhao Ziyue nodded slightly: "Yes, Master."

Xu Zhangqing was startled: "It can even simulate?"

Xu Linyuan waved his hand: "Cannot fully simulate; merely presenting the situations that might occur in the closest possible form for Xiao Zhao to see.

Back then Li Lingbi chose the Water Control Pavilion precisely because he had simulated here, so he knew which place was best."

Xu Zhangqing was thoughtful: "Put that way, Qingmu Peak contains dense Life Aura; undergoing tribulation there, one most likely won't die.

Hou Tu Peak has dense Earth Qi; defense would increase to a tremendous degree.

By analogy, the Seven Great Immortal Peaks each possess different effects during tribulation."

No wonder so many Core Disciples simply don't undergo tribulation outside.

Even up to now, only ever seen one Li Lingbi.

Turns out the Immortal Peaks are the optimal choice.

After figuring it out he realized why Fish Elder Sister longed so much to enter an Xianfeng.

Equivalent to: as long as you break through in an Xianfeng there's a safety net.

Not only does it increase the probability of success during breakthrough, at the critical moment it can even save your life.

Very obviously, this is the key reason they flock to it.

Chu Qiu left for a period of time; when she appeared again she was already ranked Earth Grade Golden Core.

At that time, Xu Zhangqing was very curious — what kind of place had the other party found.

Now it seems, obviously she broke through inside an Xianfeng.

"No wonder Elder Sister and Senior Brothers kept telling me to come up the mountain!"

"Turns out there was an unspeakable secret."

"Back then I only thought it was enthusiasm; now I understand their painstaking care."

No wonder so many Formal Disciples are willing to become disciples of Core Disciples even younger than themselves.

No wonder Core Disciples' disciples would rather risk expulsion yet still stay in the Immortal Peaks.

No wonder these people rarely come down once they enter the Immortal Peaks; the secret is actually hidden this deeply.

Xu Zhangqing complained inwardly: "You people's mouths are really tight."

Xu Linyuan said with slight impatience: "Alright, you two do whatever you want; me and Xiao Zhao will simulate here for a while."

Hu Bugui called out: "Lao Xu, let's go down and take a look."

Xu Zhangqing deeply agreed: "That's exactly what I was thinking."

Anyway, Old Zhao wouldn't break through immediately; he still needed to simulate first, so they might as well take this opportunity to go take a look inside the Inner Water.

Immediately, the two flew downward, and at the instant they touched the water surface, ripples spread out one after another.

The world flipped again, and when their vision recovered, they found that the situation inside the Inner Water was actually not much different from outside.

The only difference was that there were more buildings and pavilions here.

There were even various water balls and water bubbles floating about, looking quite dreamlike.

It seemed this was the daily life within Shuixian Peak.

Xu Zhangqing and Hu Bugui had been brought in by Xu Linyuan, so no one would pay attention, and not even anyone came forward to ask about the situation.

Here, Water Spirit Fruit Trees were actually no longer rare, but rather quite common.

Many places grew them, only few people picked the fruit.

Unknown whether it was not needed, or these people simply didn't care.

Hu Bugui looked around and couldn't help but ask: "Old Xu, you say I also grow a Water Spirit Root, and then move to Shuixian Peak to live, how about that?"

Xu Zhangqing shook his head: "You are originally Fire-Melted Gold, even if you add water, water and fire are still incompatible."

Moreover, the more spirit roots, the more Turbid Thunder one encounters when breaking through to Golden Core.

If you don't want to die, best not do that."

After hearing this, Hu Bugui came to his senses, and said with slight regret: "Pity, I really do like the atmosphere here, especially the state of living in the water."

Xu Zhangqing teased: "You're so heavy, aren't you afraid of drowning?"

Hu Bugui curled his lip: "You think I'm stupid? With a Water Spirit Root, who still fears water?"

Next, the two followed the "ground" formed by water, and began to explore everywhere.

Everything here was related to water, spirit tools, magic tools, spirit talismans, even spirit pills were no exception.

Suddenly, Xu Zhangqing saw a water ball selling cultivation methods ahead, and hurriedly went over.

Hu Bugui asked doubtfully: "Aren't all cultivation methods monopolized by the Immortal Sect? How come someone is selling them?"

Xu Zhangqing chuckled: "It's precisely because it's unusual that I'm curious."

Soon, the two entered a water bubble.

Inside looked like it should be a Core Disciple's residence and stall combined.

There weren't many things, all materials related to water.

But what Xu Zhangqing was most interested in was still that cultivating method that could be sold.

Overall very antique, others were jade pendants, jade slips, but this was actually a book, with five characters on the cover: "Yin Water Gives Birth to Yang Art."

The more abundant the Yin Water, the more vigorous the fire seed.

Use water to control fire, use fire to strengthen water.

Use Yin Water as the furnace, refine the firewood of Yang Fire.

Xu Zhangqing asked curiously: "Dao Friend, is this an Immortal Sect cultivation method?"

The stall's master, a refined man, spoke: "Indeed it is an Immortal Sect cultivation method, the person who created it is precisely our Shuixian Peak's Peak Master, Yin-Yang Venerable Li Wudao."

The secrets of the Seven Great Immortal Peaks, Xu Zhangqing might not know.

But the people inside, especially who was powerful, he still understood.

This Yin-Yang Venerable Li Wudao is now at the Spiritual Realm of Perfection of Spirit Severing.

Rumor has it, he is only one step away from Void Refinement Celestial Venerable.

Once crossed, it is suspected he will become the new Sect Master of Dongting Immortal Sect.

Therefore, everyone looks forward to this person very much, just unknown how long before he can cross over.

Hu Bugui asked puzzled: "Taking it out to sell, is there really no problem?"

The stall owner smiled slightly: "It's originally given free for us to learn, especially for those with Dual Water and Fire Spirit Roots, as long as they can learn it, they can become the Peak Master's Direct Disciple."

However, mine is different, it belongs to the original version, the others are all copied versions."

Hiss!

After hearing this, Hu Bugui sucked in a breath of cold air.

Xu Zhangqing pondered for a moment, and asked: "Then can I buy it?"

The stall owner sized him up, and counter-asked: "Do you have Water and Fire Spirit Roots?"

Xu Zhangqing smiled: "I have a Water Spirit Root."

The stall owner only wanted to get rid of it, so he said with an indifferent face: "A Water Spirit Root is fine too."

Xu Zhangqing asked again: "Then how many spirit stones do you sell it for?"

The stall owner waved his hand: "Transactions here don't use spirit stones, but various spiritual treasures related to water, spirit tools, spirit pills and the like are also fine."

Xu Zhangqing stroked his chin: "Then what do you need?"

The stall owner took out a list: "This is what I am currently lacking, if you can take out any one of them, you can take this original version away."

Xu Zhangqing and Hu Bugui looked curiously, and immediately their mouth corners twitched.

Either Liquid Water Essence.

Or Earth-rank water attribute cultivation methods, spells.

Even there are water attribute, at least Five-pattern starting magic tools.

Hu Bugui said with slight dissatisfaction: "Aren't you just robbing openly?"

The stall owner was very calm, and said composedly: "Mine is the original version after all."

Hu Bugui immediately persuaded: "Old Xu, anyway outside everywhere are copied versions."

Xu Zhangqing asked with slight unwillingness: "What is the difference between the original version and the copied version?"

The stall owner thought carefully: "This is the Peak Master's own handwriting, therefore the words contain his emotions and comprehension from back then or something like that."

Xu Zhangqing decisively put it down: "Goodbye."

Good fellow, if that were all there was to it, the original and the rubbing would make no difference to him.

There was no need to waste something like Liquid Water Essence on an exchange; that would only be a loss.

It seemed this person saw that both he and Lao Hu were unfamiliar faces, and thought they could scam one if they could.

If it were really some good thing, it wouldn't be left here unwanted.

Seeing the two turn and leave, the stall owner remained calm and composed: "The willing take the bait!"

Soon, Xu Zhangqing and Hu Bugui arrived at the stall on the Left Side, and indeed saw a rubbing jade pendant of the Yin Water Gives Birth to Yang Technique, priced very low.

For just ten Middle-grade Spirit Stones, one could take away this technique created by the Peak Master.

It was said this was an Earth-Grade Water-Fire Dual-Attribute Technique, a pity that few learned it.

It required not only Dual Spirit Roots, but also extremely high comprehension.

Yet many who encountered it could not resist; even if they could not cultivate it, they could at least collect it.

The people of Shuixian Peak had seen this point, and therefore used this thing as a lure, specially drawing Outsiders over to be deceived!
