A Will Eternal – Chapter 246

Chapter 246: Second Stage

This was the first time Jia Lie had played the role of Dharma protector in the fire trial for the blood master. Because of this, he was completely unaware of what others who participated in the trial might encounter in the world they entered.

However, he was convinced that his experience was completely different from the experiences of others. In fact, he felt that throughout all the trials with the Blood Stream Sect's fire had been held from ancient times until now, no one had ever done what Nightcrypt did.

He had no way of confirming whether his theory was correct, but when he looked around the world trembling, and all living beings kowtowing in worship to Bai Xiaochun, he impulsively followed after him.

As Bai Xiaochun stood there on the mountain peak, he was suddenly jolted by the strange sensation that he could completely destroy the entire world with a single thought.

At this moment, the Eternal Life Forever Technique was in full operation, and after a while had passed, he realized there was a whispering voice in his ear.

"Come ... come ... come …."

Breaking his daydream, his eyes shone, and he took a deep breath. Then he pulled his hand back from the stone inscription. Everything in the world began to shine with a bright, blood-colored light, all of which led to Bai Xiaochun, surrounding him.

The deep red light turned into a door, which slowly opened right in front of him.

He stared at the door hesitantly for a moment, realizing that if he were to pass through it, he would be able to enter the second stage. Looking around at the world once more, he stepped forward and disappeared into the blood-colored light.

In some unknown location within the Blood Ancestor's body, there was an open space that seemed to have no beginning or end, and was as calm as death. The only thing in sight was the numerous cone-shaped pillars rising from the darkness below.

Above each pillar is a platform.

The two platforms were much higher than the others, but not too far from each other. Xuemei was in one, and Song Junwan the other. The two sat cross-legged, staring at each other.

They've been sitting there for less than two hours. Because of the command medals they each had, they did not need to obtain the Blood Ancestor's approval like the Dharma protectors did. They came straight to this place to wait.

Time flowed differently in the Endless Blood World. In the two hours that had passed for Xuemei and Song Junwan, a month had passed inside.

Based on the analysis of the two women, they needed to wait for a few more hours before the Dharma protector started to appear. After all, the second stage of the trial with fire could not begin until the two women used their command medallions to open it. None of them will do that until their Dharma protectors are all accounted for.

The two of them exchanged back and forth the entire time, and after a short pause, it was Xuemei who continued the conversation. Chuckling softly, he said, “Song Junwan, why fight with me for the position of blood master, considering how old you are? Is it true that the Song Clan could not find a better person, and was forced to let an old woman fight for their cause? "

Song Junwan frowned, and he was just about to respond well when suddenly, his expression flickered, and he looked up into the air. Xuemei also looked up, her pupils narrowing.

Rumbling sounds echoed as the shape of the large door slowly formed.

"Someone who gets the world's approval will be so quick !?" Thought Xuemei. “It's only been two hours! It was about a month in the Endless Blood World! ” Xuemei's eyes widened, and her heart was filled with shock. He was very familiar with the way the blood master worked with fire. Supposedly, the quickest Dharma protector to have obtained approval in the past was three hours, which was one and a half months inside.

"Who's this…?" Song Junwan thought, equally shaken. “Who defeated the other Dharma protectors in the Endless Blood World, who dealt with the myriad bloodshed, and still managed to obtain the approval of the world's will? The fight must have been very intense for this fellow to finish so quickly! ” Whoever this person is, if he ends up being one of the Dharma protectors himself, he will definitely be happy. However, if it was one of the protectors of the Xuemei Dharma, it would pose a huge obstacle in his attempt to win the position of blood ruler.

After mentally reviewing all of his Dharma protectors, he could not think of anyone who could do such a thing. Thus, his expression started to darken.

However, Xuemei had the same reaction. When he checked his own list of Dharma protectors, he was not sure that any of them could do something like this. Along with Song Junwan, he stared at the illusionary door.

A moment later, a blurry figure appeared inside the door. It only took a moment for the two women to see who it was, and they both cried out in shock.

"Nightcrypt !!"

"Nightcrypt !?"

Xuemei's eyes flickered with killing intent, and his heart trembled in surprise. He could not imagine how Nightcrypt might gain world approval so quickly.

After her initial shock, Song Junwan's heart swelled up happily, and her beautiful eyes were fixated on Bai Xiaochun.

When Bai Xiaochun first stepped out of the door, his vision was swimming, and he could not see clearly. But it only lasted for a moment, and then he saw all the countless platforms around him, as well as Xuemei and Song Junwan.

"Junior Brother Nightcrypt, come here," Song Junwan said, smiling. His voice was full of tenderness and joy.

Xuemei let out a cold snort, clenching his hands.

Bai Xiaochun blinked a few times, then headed towards Song Junwan. As soon as he touched the platform, he walked to his side.

"Of course," Song Junwan said, smiling sweetly. "How did you do it? Who's opponent? ”

To Bai Xiaochun, his smile only seemed to reveal his inner self. However, he did not let his true feelings show. He lifted his chin up, clasped his hands behind his back, and tried to look as arrogant and relaxed as possible.

"Oh, it's simple" he said in a calm and deep voice. “I just walked through the world. As for my opponent, I never asked his name. ” From his words and posture, he looked very proud and aloof. As for how he called the Endless Blood World "simple," both Xuemei and Song Junwan could imagine him summoning his blood sword and slashing his way through the world ….

He might ignore the countless blood attacks, not even wanting to see the world around him as he slaughtered his way to gain world approval.

Song Junwan's eyes shone brighter earlier when he saw Bai Xiaochun, and to Xuemei, he couldn't help but stare at him. Moments later, the two women realized that she was not injured at all, and their expressions flickered.

Just when Song Junwan was about to ask about it, Bai Xiaochun flicked his sleeve and coldly said, “I'm tired. Please let me know when the second stage will begin. " With that, he walked to the side, where he sat cross-legged, looking arrogant like a wrinkled pine tree on the top of a mountain. When he closed his eyes, his cold, cruel face and deadly aura caused Song Junwan's words to stick in his throat.

Inwardly, Bai Xiaochun laughed, and felt extremely proud of himself. As far as he was concerned, he was truly outstanding and truly superior to everyone.

"Wait, I need to do something to make it seem a little more realistic" he thought. With that, he slowly raised his head and looked into the distance, eyes filled with a melancholy and introspection expression.

It made Song Junwan and Xuemei even more shaken, even though they were unsure what it meant.

Time pass. Two hours later, the air above once again began to ripple and distort, and the door appeared again. A burly and dangerous-looking man appeared, seemingly out of breath as he appeared in the open. As soon as Xuemei saw him, she smiled. The burly man clasped his hands and bowed to him to greet him, then approached the platform and sat down next to him. When he saw Bai Xiaochun on top of the other platforms, his heart was filled with shock.

He assumed that he would be the first to appear, and would never have guessed that Nightcrypt would be faster.

As time passed, more and more Dharma protectors appeared. Song Que was one of them, even though he looked exhausted, and his body was filled with wounds. Obviously, it was a difficult task for him to win the world's approval.

Ten hours later, the final Dharma protector appeared, and the first stage officially ended.

Both Song Junwan and Xuemei had chosen their Dharma protectors carefully, and they were all outstanding in some ways. Unexpectedly, the two groups had been quite balanced, as there were now ten Dharma protectors on both sides.

The two women exchanged a cold glance, and then both of them gave a cold snort. Turning to their Dharma protector, they began to explain the second stage.

“During the first stage,” Song Junwan began, “You, the Dharma protectors, fought to gain the approval of the world, and I did not participate. In the second stage, the battle will be more brutal, and I will participate!

"The second stage is called the Blood Wasteland. This is the endless road, where the winds of death blow every fourteen hours. After that wind blew, every living being within the Blood Wasteland would be killed, reduced to nothing more than a skeleton.

“That's the road that leads to the heart cavity. Simply put, we have fourteen hours right to search for the Blood Wasteland for the key that leads to the heart cavity! " In the distance, Xuemei made a similar explanation to his Dharma protector.

“Every two hours, a key will appear in a random location inside the desert. Anyone who obtained one of the keys, and held it until fourteen hours had passed, would be transferred to the Ancient Blood Road leading to the heart cavity. Of course, Xuemei and I do not need a key to enter the Ancient Blood Road.

"There are a total of seven keys, meaning that only seven Dharma protectors can enter the Ancient Bloodline with Xuemei and myself!"

Bai Xiaochun's expression flickered, as did the expressions of everyone else except Song Que. One of them, a middle-aged cultivator, lowered his voice and asked, "What about the people who didn't get the key?"

Song Junwan looked at the man for a moment, and then replied, “We fight as a team, and whichever side gets the most keys will be the winner. The disciples on the winning team who did not obtain the key would not be teleported to the Ancient Blood Road, but they would not be killed either. They'll just get kicked out.

“As for the losing team, anyone among them who did not get the key would all be killed after fourteen hours were up! That was the rule, and not even the patriarchs could interfere to save the losers!

“Because of that, this is not the time for a showdown! If a key falls into the hands of one of Xuemei's Dharma protectors, feel free to attack them. However, if your own teammates get it, you are forbidden to compete among yourself!

“Disposal will not only increase our chances of losing, it can also lead to your death….

"You're all one of the members of the Song Clan, or here because of certain promises I made. If I become the master of blood, your future prospects will not be limited. Everything I promised you, I will do. If I lose, and Xuemei succeeds, then we will all meet bad luck! ” With that, Song Junwan clasped his hands and bowed deeply at Bai Xiaochun and the other Dharma protectors.
