Zhang Yan nodded and replied, "I know you are powerful, after all, you are one of the legendary twelve golden lotuses, the supreme holy beings. But I am curious why you are here and enter my Knowledge Ocean. And can you tell me any great stories of the Human Emperor?!"
The Human Emperor, not only the pride and the great hero of the human race, but was admired and appreciated by thousands of races in the world. He killed the ghost race who enslaved the other races after he upgraded to the Immortal Emperor. Without him, the prosperous life at present would never existed.
Therefore, Zhang Yan was so proud of being a member of the human race and curious about the Human Emperor's great deeds. Thought there were many records that he could read, he preferred to be storied by the witness! He begged with big excitement, "Tell me, please!"
The Purifying Lotus lowed its head awkwardly, "I don't know his stories either. When he got me, I didn't have the intelligence and when he became the Immortal Emperor later, I was not needed anymore. Considering my credit, he endowed me with intelligence through a secret martial art, thus I have wisdom and memory. But after that I have not seen him again. Several years later, something happened to me and I was hurt. So I came to the Mingxin Spring to absorb the moon energy to recover my wounds. I didn't expect to meet you.
"For so many years, I found no else, except you and the Human Emperor, whose body I can inhabit in, so I got to recuperate through your Knowledge Ocean."
"Any benefits for me?" Zhang Yan asked.
"Benefits?", the lotus responded in little anger, "I already gave you a gift! Without my purification, can your physique and spiritual root improve so much? How dare you want more!"
He shouted, "Gift? Really? This gift almost took my life!"
"I must test you to get my approval. Do you think I accept everyone? Since your talent and willpower are barely qualified, I will just rest in your Knowledge Ocean. By the way, your spiritual root is so strange that I've never seen before."
He became interested and asked, "Since you have been through so much, you must know a lot of advanced martial arts, don't you?"
"What are you thinking about?" it got alert.
He answered with a smile, "Can you give me one or two to practice and improve my strength?!"
"Martial arts? They are boring and useless to me? Why do I remember them?"
A sense of disappointment arose within him. The lotus's words were quite rightthe martial arts were only necessary for warriors. But after a while, it continued, "But I know a piece of body skill."
"Body skill? What?" He asked with expectation.
"The Human Emperor got it from a Question Leaf. In the early days, he defeated so many enemies through the skill. When he was about to die, he specially taught it to me, hoping that I would pass it on. But I don't know if you can practice it. It demands an extreme strong body."
"Question Leaf?", he had never heard of this name, "What is it? Since it knows body skills, it must be a kind of valuable treasure, isn't it?!"
"It is from the Question Tree which is also a natural treasure like me, containing great Taoism. The Human Emperor once gained a leaf of its and realized a piece of supreme body skill, named by him as an Bamen Dunjia."
"Bamen Dunjia?"
"Yep, you hold the mind and I will teach you its skills. Whether you can practice or not would be depended on your fate. Be mentally ready, it is so difficult!" The lotus passed it to him.
He was shocked by this marvelous skill. His horizon was broadened. The Bamen Dunjia was actually to explore the limits of the human bodies and to stimulate all their potentials. There are eight Doors in human bodiesKai, Xiu, Sheng, Shang, Du, Jing, Jiing, Siand the skill could help warriors to thoroughly control them.
In a battle, it could improve the human bodies' extreme potential, similar to the Asura Change. What different was that the latter was supported by spiritual energy while the former the bloody-qi. What's more surprised, they were not contradictory and could be used at the same time. Therefore, Zhang Yan now had two final resorts. How fierce would he become! However, in the future! After all, his top priority now was to fulfill it.
To practice the Bamen Dunjia, the warriors were requested sufficient bloody-qi and strong recovering ability. Once the Doors were opened, the bloody-qi would move faster in their bodies to stimulate their potentials. But the bloody-qi was the significant element for humans, so if it was consumed out, the warriors would die, or if not, it should be restored. The Human Emperor was able to practice it because his body had transformed immortal with uncommonly enormous bloody-qi.
Zhang Yan was confident about himself. Though his bloody-qi would not be equal to that of the Human Emperor, his recovering ability was strong due to Asura Change. So he hurried to back to Qingyuan School. He was silent all the way. After he came back, he directly returned his room and began to practice the Bamen Dunjia.
