System Of Gods And Devils - Chapter 6
Zhang Shui’s big Sister came in “Shu’er are you asleep!” asked Yue’r in Sleepy tone while hugging her Pillow.
“Ah! Big Sis! What are you doing here at this time!” asked Zhang Shui.
“I just came because I heard you talking to someone! Are you alright Shu’er!” asked Yue’r.
“Yeah! I’m fine! I am…I am…. just training how to speak like an Adult” said Zhang Shui while getting flustered.
“Wow! My little brother is growing up fast now!” said Yue’r as she pats his head.
Seeing this little loli caring for him was a weird feeling for him, as he wasn’t born with Siblings and mostly his parents were away for work. He was mostly taken care of by his Caretaker. So this feeling made him warm and happy. Zhang Shui promised himself to take good care of his new family.
“Shu’er, Can I sleep here tonight!” asked Yue’r.
Before Zhang Shui can even reply, Yue’r climbed up his bed and slept next to him. Seeing this Zhang Shui can only shake his head helplessly.
“OK! You two can come out now!” said Zhang Shui.
Two little lolis again popped up on his shoulders, “You guys let’s talk tomorrow morning about cultivation stuff! OK!” said Zhang Shui.
Both cute loli nodded their heads and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Zhang Shui then thought about happenings these two days and didn’t know how his future will turn out, he felt both fear and excitement at the same time. Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
….
Morning.
Zhang Shui opened his tired slowly to see his Big Sister Yue’r was staring at his face happily while humming and shaking her two little legs cutely.
Watching her Big Sister staring him, “What happened, Big Sis! Why are you staring at me” asked Zhang Shui?
“No! I am just watching how cute my little brother is!” said Yue’r while smiling.
“Yue’r! Shu’er! Wake Up! Breakfast is ready!” they heard their mom calling for breakfast.
“Coming!” said both as they got up.
“Kanna! Mia! Do you guys eat?” asked Zhang Shui.
“No! We don’t need to!” said Kanna from his Mental Space.
“But I can!” said Mia cutely.
“OK! I bring some food afterward” said Zhang Shui.
Zhang Shui made his way to the hall. His Father was busy in Meditation and his Mother was busy preparing food in the kitchen. And Yue’r was busy munching her food which looked like a chicken’s leg.
Seeing her son, Zhang Shui’s Mother said, “Wait a minute Shu’er, I’m preparing you a special food”
She brought a thick hot broth soup in a bowl and started to feed him in her Lap.
“Mother! I can eat by myself!” said Zhang Shui.
“My My! My little son has grown up! He doesn’t want his Mother now!” said his Mother while deliberately making a sad face.
“Bing’er! Don’t tease our son!” said Zhang Shui’s father while smiling looking at their son’s red face.
“OK! OK! Shu’er finish the bowl properly OK!” said his mother and kissed his cheeks.
“OK!” nodded Zhang Shui.
Zhang Shui saw his bowl, the soup was still boiling hot with the meat of some kind of animal floating around the edges. Seeing his son watching the soup, “Shu’er that’s the meat of a Grade 3 Spirit beast! It’s expensive you know! So finish everything without waste!” said his Father.
Seeing only her brother gets to eat the meat of Spirit beasts, Yue’r pouted at her Father.
“Don’t worry Yue’r here’s your portion!” said her Mother while bringing another bowl.
After finishing the bowl of soup! Zhang Shui can feel the huge amount of Spirit Qi coursing through his veins. He felt refreshed and tiredness from yesterday was gone. He took a meat bun and a roasted chicken leg from the kitchen and then he went outside to the garden.
In the garden, he found a hiding spot under a tree with bush covering its edges and sat there.
“You two can come out now!” said Zhang Shui as he gave them the food to eat.
After getting the meat bun and roasted chicken leg in their hands, Zhang Shui saw them getting nervous about eating them.
“Why aren’t you both eating them? Is it bad!” asked Zhang Shui.
“No! It’s not! It’s just that we aren’t supposed to eat any sort of food except for the Spirit Nectar! Even in the Upper Realm our Sister’s would punish us for tasting Human foods!” said Kanna and Mia.
“But aren’t you guys assigned to me now! So what are you afraid of! Your Sister’s won’t even know!” said Zhang Shui.
Kanna and Mia took their first bite “Delicious!” exclaimed both of them. And started enjoying the food.
After finishing the food “So let’s continue where we left!” asked Zhang Shui.
Nodded both of them while licking their fingers.
“So yesterday we explained the different types of cultivation. So which type are you going to choose?” asked Kanna.
“Isn’t it obvious? The Yin-Yang Qi cultivation!” said Zhang Shui.
“Are you sure! Even though Yin-Yang is powerful, it is also difficult than others!” said Kanna.
“I’m sure!” said Zhang Shui confidently.
“OK! But I need to explain you something first!” said Kanna seriously as nodded Zhang Shui.
“Yin-Yang Qi is the creation of all life and rule left by the heavens to follow by all under it. As it is powerful and its requirement is also difficult. Even though you possess Spirit Jade Body and could be considered a thousand year genius regarding Spirit Qi cultivation, but it’s not enough for Yin-Yang Qi cultivation” said Kanna.
“Wait, what is Spirit Jade Body!” asked Zhang Shui.
“It’s a gift from heavens! It’s mostly passed down to the generation of the bloodline. And the one who possesses the body would have flawless absorption of Spirit Qi and have a faster progress in cultivation!” explained Kanna.
“So! What do I need to do to cultivate Yin-Yang Qi!” asked Zhang Shui.
“Your body’s going to need to tempered with Yin-Yang Qi slowly and upgrade your current Spirit Jade Body to Emperor Jade body. It is the least requirement for cultivating Yin-Yang Qi!” explained Kanna.
“Normally a mortal cannot upgrade a body given by Heaven’s but you are different. With the control of the System we can upgrade your body within 14 years!” said Kanna.
“What! 14 years! So that means I cannot cultivate until I’m 15!” said Zhang Shui in shock.
“Yes! Normally children’s of your generation would start cultivation at 7 years old. You would lag behind for 7 years! Are you OK with that?” asked Kanna.
After a thought, Zhang Shui said with a smile “Yes! I’m okay with that! Didn’t I already promised to unite you guys with your Sister’s!
“But.. But this a world where only Strength speaks! This not you’re Earth! You’ll only get bullied and might not even protect yourself until 15 years old!” said Mia nervously.
“He! I never thought Kanna and Mia would care so much for me! I feel happy!” said Zhang Shui jokingly.
“Hmph! Who would care for a brat like you!” said Kanna with a red face.
“And don’t forget we will need a hell load of Spirit stones for refinement! Without Spirit Stones, by refining Yin-Yang Qi from surroundings can take up to 50 years! OK!” said Kanna.
“OK!” said Zhang Shui in thought.
