Dragon Lord: Starting from the daily settlement

It seems I'll have to forge a suitable weapon in the future. This powerful physique is my forte, and there's no reason not to use it.

He shook his head, then a thought struck him, and he said to the Turtle Prime Minister in his mind, "My tribulation has passed, return to the palace immediately."

The Turtle Prime Minister was created by him, and his soul and life are in his hands.

Having said that, he turned and headed towards the Dragon Palace.

At the hour of Hai (9-11 PM), the Dragon Palace was quiet and devoid of any living beings.

Zhou Yan was not surprised by this. When he was undergoing his tribulation, he had driven them far away to prevent them from being caught in the crossfire of the lightning tribulation. Now that his cultivation had greatly increased, traveling would not take him long, but for these little demons, it was not a long distance.

He opened the gates of his palace, and the ice bed remained in the center.

He walked over, crossed his legs and sat down, then shook his head.

With his current cultivation level, the ice bed has no effect on him at all; at most, it only provides a cooling effect.

If I could stay in this transformed state, I could lie down comfortably, but I can't maintain this state forever.

I need to find something new to aid my cultivation.

Looking at the ice bed beneath him, he couldn't help but think.

After a long while, the palace door was knocked on, and an excited voice came in.

"Your Majesty, your humble servant has returned."

"Come in."

Sitting cross-legged on the ice bed, Zhou Yan spoke calmly. Then the palace door opened, and the Turtle Prime Minister pushed it open and came out. When he saw Zhou Yan's appearance, he was first stunned, and then his face showed great joy.

He knelt forward and lay face down on the ground.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"Get up." Zhou Yan shook his head and waved his hand, and the Turtle Prime Minister immediately floated up and stood upright to the side.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Despite this, Prime Minister Turtle continued to speak respectfully.

Seeing his appearance, Zhou Yan suddenly had a thought. He had now cultivated to the Purple Mansion stage and would transform into a dragon in the future. He would definitely need to build his own team. This Turtle Prime Minister's life and fortune were in his hands. He had worked diligently for many years and could be of use. It was just that his cultivation level was a bit low. He was only at the Qi Refining stage at the moment.

Thinking of this, he raised his head and said to the Turtle Prime Minister, "You have been following me for three years now. Today, I will bestow upon you a great fortune."

"Come here!"

Zhou Yan waved to the Turtle Prime Minister.

"Huh?" Prime Minister Turtle was stunned at first, then his face lit up with joy. He immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Zhou Yan before getting up, moving closer to him, and lowering his head.

Zhou Yan extended a finger and gently touched the Turtle Prime Minister's forehead. Spiritual energy emanated from his body and flowed into the Turtle Prime Minister's body through his finger.

Dragons, as the darlings of heaven and earth, are naturally affinity-bound to the spiritual essence of water. They can enlighten aquatic creatures, and even without taking action, the aptitude of aquatic creatures will improve if they stay by the Dragon Lord's side for a long time. This is why so many aquatic creatures gather under the Dragon Lord's command.

At this moment, a large amount of spiritual energy was poured into the Turtle Prime Minister's body, and his body immediately began to transform. His figure began to grow taller, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the height of an ordinary person. At the same time, his mouth lengthened, becoming like a bird's beak, and his tail became extremely long and thin. His entire aura became powerful and long.

A moment later, Zhou Yan stopped, withdrew his finger, and looked at the Turtle Prime Minister in front of him with a look of surprise in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, his guidance actually activated the Xuan Turtle bloodline within him.

This is the key; it seems we can't use it too much. Feeling the depletion within his body, Zhou Yan pondered.

Deep down, he felt that the number of times he could personally enlighten others was limited, but he didn't know what would happen if he exceeded that limit.

Of course, he didn't want to give it a try.

After calming his breathing, Prime Minister Turtle opened his eyes and said with unwavering determination.

"Your Majesty's kindness in this life is something I will never forget."

At this moment, he stood up. Although he was still somewhat hunched over, he was much more upright than before.

Looking at him, Zhou Yan felt that the Turtle Prime Minister now resembled the turtle in the anime he had watched in his previous life, which depicted a world conquered in seven days.

"Now that I have enlightened you, I might as well bestow a name upon you."

After a moment of contemplation, Zhou Yan stroked his chin.

"You shall be named Xuan Yi."

"Xuan Yi thanks Your Majesty for bestowing upon him this name!"

Turtle Chancellor was about to kowtow and thank him again, but Zhou Yan waved his hand to stop him and then waved his hand away.

"Alright, you can go now. I need to cultivate."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xuan Yi nodded immediately and retreated towards the outside of the hall.

Just as I was about to leave, Zhou Yan's voice came again.

"After you go down, do not let the water palace cause any trouble. Also, you must diligently cultivate and not neglect your practice."

Xuan Yi paused, turned around and answered him.

"Xuan Yi understands, Your Majesty!"

He then withdrew and gently closed the door behind him.

Inside the hall, Zhou Yan sat cross-legged on the ice bed, not cultivating, but quietly waiting for today's settlement.

Having survived the tribulation of lightning today, broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, and successfully transformed into a dragon, I should at least achieve a mid-to-high rank.

Zhou Yan thought to himself that when he failed his tribulation back then, he could only barely transform into a half-dragon and received a grade of C below. This time, it shouldn't be any lower than that time, but he didn't know what grade it would be.

Time passed by second by second, and in the blink of an eye, a quarter of an hour had passed.

The familiar panel reappeared.

Daily settlement begins

[Today's Settlement: Successfully transcended tribulation, forged a dragon body, and enlightened the swirling tortoise.]

[Evaluation: Grade C, obtained the Six Harmonies Water Diagram, which can be used to regulate water veins and gather spiritual energy.]

The panel disappeared, and a square array about one foot in size appeared in Zhou Yan's hand.

"The Six Harmonies Water Diagram"

Looking at the treasure in his hand, Zhou Yan couldn't help but murmur aloud.

Inside the array, all was white, with six small black flags planted on the six sides. In the center was a spring, constantly gushing out clear water that flowed into the six sides of the array.

Immediately, the method of using the array diagram was also transmitted to his brain.

After careful consideration, Zhou Yan finally understood how to use the array diagram.

The Six Harmonies Formation can regulate the water veins within a certain range by using the Six Harmonies Water Flag, gathering their spiritual energy. The spring in the center of the formation is called the Clear Spring, which is used to receive the spiritual energy gathered by the Six Harmonies Water Flag and at the same time produces spring water to nourish the surrounding water veins.

In addition to these functions, the Six Harmonies Formation also has defensive capabilities.

If a powerful enemy attacks, the surrounding water elements can be mobilized to form a water formation to defend against it.

What a wonderful baby!

Zhou Yan couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He had originally been worried that the water element in Changming Marsh wouldn't be enough for him after his breakthrough.

Unexpectedly, just when I was about to fall asleep, a pillow appeared. But where should I find the other water veins?
