Then after looking through the hall again, Ye Tian Yun asked, "Elder, where's the second floor that the Grand Elder Xuan mentioned about?"
Elder Lai Chang replied with the same slight smile, "Well, for this too, you will need to have a higher rank, at least core disciple."
"In fact, for any query other than how you need to cultivate, you will need to have a higher rank in the sect hierarchy."
Ye Tian Yun let out a hollow laugh and asked, "Elder, then I want to ask about what I need to do here? How and where should I cultivate?"
Elder Lai Chang raised his hand and pointed towards the waterfall, "The close you cultivate with the waterfall, the more benefits it will bring for you."
"But you need to be careful because the Qi concentration near the waterfall is too high. Not to mention, some elements of the Chaos Qi are also near this waterfall."
After a moment of pause, he added, "Chaos Qi is something that can even bring Qi deviation to Half Saints, and you are just a Qi Refining Realm disciple. I have a hunch that you will most probably lose your life while trying to get too close to the waterfall."
Ye Tian Yun asked, "Then why don't you tell me the exact location where I should cultivate from? Because if I went too close while trying hit and trial methods to find the ideal place to cultivate, I might get struck from the Chaos Qi."
Elder Lai Chang shook his head, "Don't worry about that, the Chaos Qi is not dense enough that it will kill you in an instant, but it is definitely harmful to anyone who stays in its vicinity and cultivates for along time, like you, who will cultivate here for the next month."
Ye Tian Yun replied with an expression of being enlightened, "Oh, I get it now, I thought the Chaos Qi was too dense here."
Elder Lai Chang let out a sigh and said, "It's not very dense. Unfortunately, we can't sense this type of Qi before cultivating it because of its different nature from the regular Qi."
After a moment of silence, Elder Lai Chang continued, "Let me tell you something about Chaos Qi."
"This Qi is called Chaos Qi because of its mysterious and unstable nature. As I said before, we can't sense this Qi, and one would have to sit and start cultivating to confirm its presence."
"But this not the only thing that differentiates it from regular Qi; there are many other characteristics which show how malevolent it is."
"Unlike regular Qi around us, which we cultivate and can sense, Chaos Qi's nature is opposite. Thus it can cause harm if cultivated like the other processes. Even though we can cultivate it, we won't get any benefits from it. Though few legends practicing sword in the presence of Chaos Qi will give maximum benefits."
"However, this had been tested and proven false long ago. There's no way of cultivating Chaos Qi and getting benefits."
"But because this place had something which exponentially increases the Qi density, the cultivation speed here is breakneck, and this makes it worth cultivating here even in the presence of Chaos Qi."
"Luckily for us, the Chaos Qi density here is very low and wouldn't give you much harm, but as I said before, you shouldn't cultivate too close to the waterfall."
"Also, remember not to try practicing Sword cultivation, those rumors I talked about just now are not only proven false but later found out that Chaos Qi actually harms the Sword cultivators. It's like poison for Sword Cultivators, and if someone's sword cultivation is weak and cultivates in the Chaos Qi, it might even cripple his chances to ever break through the Sword Intent. In fact, there's not even a slight hope left for them to get Sword Intent."
"And the last thing that I want to talk about is to remind you the importance of this place and the importance of this opportunity. This is the best place to cultivate in a radius of thousand miles, if not in the whole Xin Kingdom. So don't miss this opportunity. You might not get such a chance ever again."
Ye Tian Yun cupped his fists and said, "Thank you for your instructions, Elder Lai Chang, I will keep them in mind."
Elder Lai nodded his head and asked, "Do you have anything else to ask? Or should I take my leave?"
Ye Tian Yun once again looked around the hall, to see if there was anything he needed to ask about, and after a while, he turned towards Elder Lai Chang and asked, "Elder Lai Chang, can you confirm this, that for a whole one month I will be cultivating here, and that I can cultivate at any place in this hall?"
Elder Lai Chang nodded his head, "You can cultivate anywhere in this place, heck, you can even cultivate in that waterfall. But don't do that. I don't want to see that waterfall ruined by your dead body. Also, don't cultivate too far from the hall, even though the concentration of Qi is ten times more than the Qi outside this hall, it would be a waste if you sit and cultivate far away from the waterfall."
"Remember this: you need to cultivate just at the right place, not too far away, not too close."
"And here's something you can do to know where that place is: just go five steps away from the waterfall if you start feeling like vomiting."
Ye Tian Yun nodded his head and replied, "I will keep your words in my mind, Elder Lai Chang."
Elder Lai Chang nodded his head and then said, "I will take my leave now. You will stay here for a month and focus on your cultivation. After your time here ends, I will come here to get your back. This hall will lockdown as soon as I leave."
Ye Tian Yun nodded his head and cupped his fists, "Thank you, Elder Lai Chang."
Elder Lai Chang gave a slight smile and began to make some hand gestures, and after a while, he said, "The gate will now close soon, disciple Fang Chen, you should start looking for a good place to cultivate as soon as possible and get the best out of this chance."
Seeing Ye Tian Yun nod his head, Elder Lai Chang also nodded his head and then turned around, heading back towards the stairway.
Ye Tian Yun watched Elder Lai Chang's disappearing back as the things that Elder Lai Chang had said about the Chaos Qi began to appear in his mind.
He took a deep breath and moved towards the wall of the underground hall.
As the huge gates of the hall closed, Ye Tian Yun sat with his back leaning on the wall and stared at the waterfall.
He tried to recall the information regarding the Gracious Sword Sect's important landmarks, but nothing related to a waterfall came up.
'Why do I feel like I am forgetting something very important?' Ye Tian Yun frowned as he looked around to see anything out or ordinary.
After getting nothing, and seeing everything normal, he focused on the waterfall.
The waterfall was still shining, lighting up the whole hall. Ye Tian Yun continued to observe it, however, he still couldn't' find anything odd about it, except its glowing nature.
'Is the water golden? Or is there an array inside the waterfall?'
'But how were they able to put the array? That would be impossible due to the Chaos Qi being at its highest concentration at that place.'
Ye Tian Yun let out a sigh and leaned a bit more, spread his legs straight, and relaxed his body.
'It's not like thinking about the waterfall will bring me any benefits, I should relax a bit.'
'Too many things happened yesterday, and too many changes came out of nowhere. To think my little actions affected the future so much.'
Shaking his head, he then focused his attention towards the Chaos Qi.
Elder Lai Chang had said that this Qi was not good for Sword Cultivator and there didn't exist any cultivation method that could help someone in cultivating the Chaos Qi.
Ye Tian Yun couldn't help but shake his head when he thought how laughable these words actually were.
Chaos Qi is harmful for Sword Cultivators.
There's no way to cultivate Chaos Qi which is beneficial.
Well, both of these are false.
Ye Tian Yun took a deep breath as remembered the person who had proved the above two statements false and went on to not only cultivate Chaos Qi but conquer half of the continent by using its power.
The only thing that bugged Ye Tian Yun was that this person was going to be his enemy in the future because the boy who got this cultivation method was going to be a part of God's Legion.
