A Will Eternal – Chapter 270

Chapter 270: Wise

The way he heard it, the sect leader of Elder Brother said that even if the Spirit Stream Sect lost the war, there was still a way for him to stay alive.

Perhaps due to the cultivation base of the Heaven-Dao Foundation Establishment, he was already part of a select group of people who would remain safe. However, if he managed to cut off the master's blood in battle, then it would ensure that his rank in the sect increased even higher!

"You have just returned," Zheng Yuandong said slowly, "so go in your honor for our Master. Then take a break. As for the arrangements for the battlefield, you have been placed in the fourth wave …. "

Bai Xiaochun took a deep breath. Clasping hands formally to Zheng Yuandong, he did not leave immediately, but asked about Li Qinghou. Li Qinghou did not offer much explanation to him before going into seclusion, and back then, Bai Xiaochun considered it nothing more than an ordinary meditation session. Never could he imagine that he was actually trying to break through to the Core Formation. It's not an easy task.

"Uncle Li You has reached the Core Formation," Zheng Yuandong said with a smile. "He is now in the echelon of inheritance. He is in recovery, and should be out at any time now. ”

Eyes blinked happily, Bai Xiaochun clasped his hands and then rushed away.

After leaving the hall, Bai Xiaochun went to pay his respects to the portrait of his teacher. Then he returned to his eternal cave on Mount Daoseed. Bruiser was waiting for him there, and immediately ran over and started rolling at his feet.

"Did you recognize me the last time I was here?" Bai Xiaochun asked, stroking Bruiser a few times.

The bruiser nodded and then took out a few yips.

“So, what do you think? Is your dad great or what? I'm really wild in the Blood Stream Sect. No one dared to provoke me. ” Bai Xiaochun felt very pleased with himself as he bragged about his achievements. However, that was when he realized that Bruiser had become more mature. To his surprise, his cultivation base was on the verge of reaching Foundation Establishment too late. Bai Xiaochun immediately felt sour inside.

"Your cultivation is going too fast, isn't it?" she said. It doesn't seem fair. He had worked long and hard to reach the middle of the Foundation, and had even risked his own life. All Bruiser had to do was play around all day, and he got the same result.

Bruiser looked very proud of himself. Looking at Bai Xiaochun, he made a barking sound that no one else could understand, but Bai Xiaochun, after raising him, could understand. Bai Xiaochun's eyes widened, and he gasped.

“The top leader of Irispetal Peak gives you a medicinal pill every day !? Founding patriarchs often come to customize your qi aisle? The old dragon came and let you drink the blood of his life?

"What's? You went to the mysterious pocket realm? Y-you …. " Bai Xiaochun's eyes widened as he looked at Bruiser with envy.

“Okay, tell me the truth. Did you steal the bra when I left? "

The bruiser howled softly in response. The two of them chatted back and forth until nightfall. However, worried that Bruiser's cultivation base would eventually exceed his, Bai Xiaochun finally ended the chatter and sat down to meditate and work on Violet Qi Heavenspan's spell.

During the following days, some people came to visit, but after that, things calmed down.

After spending some time reminiscing with many acquaintances, Bai Xiaochun realized that the Spirit Stream Sect had changed the moment he left.

Back before he left, everyone mainly focused on their cultivation. Although there were some conflicts and rivalries, it was always possible to hear people chatting happily. Everyone always seems relaxed. But now, silence seemed to win, and the pressure seemed to continue to weigh on the sect.

A storm came, a war, and all the disciples were wrapped up in preparation for it.

Thankfully, due to that pressure and seriousness, the killing intent of the cultivators grew more intense. The survival of their sect was on the line, and how deeply the cultivators were immersed in the pressure, it was how explosive their performance was on the battlefield.

The Spirit Stream Sect was stronger now than ever before!

Almost all the items in the market outside of the sect had been purchased. Moreover, because so many disciples bought items, the price had gone up.

It was especially true for spirit medicines, paper talismans, and other items designed for warfare. As far as magic items went, they ended up selling out. And when it came to the disciples of the Violet Cauldron Peak who could perform spirit enhancement, they were constantly busy, and those lines only continued to grow longer.

Some people started coming to Bai Xiaochun to request the medicinal concocting service. Even though they knew that frightening things could happen, they still wanted his help.

The more Bai Xiaochun understood the situation in the Spirit Stream Sect, the more his mood sank, and the more often he frowned. Right now, he was sitting on a rock near his immortal cave, a place that allowed him to see the entire sect.

He could see all the familiar mountains, the swift Heavenspan River, and could not stop wondering what the consequences of all those battles were….

"The Middle Reach, and Sky River Court ..." he muttered. The opportunity to take over the position occupied by the Sky River Court was something that could awaken an indescribable thirst among the sects of the Lower Reaches.

Even as Bai Xiaochun sighed, a soft voice spoke behind him.

"Maybe the Sky River Court was not worth it to himself. But the patriarch's hope of breaking through to the next level was involved. Plus, the sect itself would then have a chance to grow stronger. Once all the current disciples had access to the spiritual energy of the Middle Reach, it would only take several tens of years for them to rapidly increase their cultivation base. When you consider all that, it changes the story, doesn't it? ”

Shocked, Bai Xiaochun turned to look over his shoulder, and saw someone standing there in a long green robe, pulsing with powerful energy, and smiling. It was Li Qinghou.

Li Qinghou looked completely different from how Bai Xiaochun remembered him. He looked even more reserved and more dignified, and when Bai Xiaochun looked at him, he sensed that there was a huge vortex inside him, something that, if released, was, it can shake heaven and earth in an enigmatic way.

Bai Xiaochun had never even felt such fluctuations from the main elders. With widened eyes, he shouted, "Uncle Li !!"

With that, he jumped to his feet and rushed to hug Li Qinghou.

Li Qinghou laughed and ruffled his hair.

"Yes, you're old enough, aren't you?" In Li Qinghou's eyes, Bai Xiaochun would always be the youngster who had lit an incense stick thirteen times on the mountain.

Li Qinghou's words almost caused tears to flow in Bai Xiaochun's eyes. Back in the Bloodstream Sect, he was forced to hide his identity, but never forgot Li Qinghou and his kindness.

After returning to the Spirit Stream Sect, he was worried that something was amiss in Li Qinghou's secluded meditation. However, now that he could see that he had actually reached the Core Formation, it filled him with immense excitement, he said, even more excitement than if he had just concocted a high-tier medicinal pill.

"Xiaochun, war is not as simple as you imagine." Li Qinghou sat down, and Bai Xiaochun sat down next to him. "In addition to everything I just mentioned, don't forget about the reserve force on the orders of the sect. When it comes to having control over Low Reach, and the glory that will come with it, there are many factors involved.

"The war between the Profound Flow Sect and the Cold Flow Sect is reaching a conclusion. The Pill Stream Sect had suffered heavy losses, and over half of their disciples had defected to the Profound Stream Sect. Although the Great Flow Sect had also suffered significant losses, they were already in the process of recovery. The Pill Stream Sect had retreated to the headquarters of their sect, and it would not be long now before the two sects became one, and they would become stronger than before.

“At this point, the Profound Flow Sect has two problems. One, they had to completely defeat the Pill Stream Sect. Two, they had to reorganize their sect and launch an internal conflict. At this moment, the Profound Stream Sect was at its weakest point, and had no choice but to suppress the Pill Sect Sect violently to defeat it. As for the Blood Stream Sect, they had delayed in the hope that the Spirit Stream Sect would meet their demands and allow the sect to be sealed. "

Bai Xiaochun hesitated for a moment, trying to decide if he should open a certain topic. “Do we really have to fight? Is there no other way? "

"Don't think about things too much," Li Qinghou replied gently. “This war is completely inevitable. Any sect that aspired to reach Middle Reach had to go to war in the end. If we don't fight now, if we compromise, we will bring a certain disaster upon ourselves in the future. We will wheeze and gasp to death for over a thousand years. Does that really compare to coming out in a blaze of glory in battle ?!

"We can't prevent a war from happening, and the Blood Stream Sect can't either. There's no other choice. If we claim to have given up on the opportunity to refine our own sect, people will not trust us. Even the vows sworn between sects would be of little value.

“The only way to end things without war is for the two sects to trust each other in this moment of deadly crisis.

"However, it seems like such a thing cannot happen." Li Qinghou shook his head and looked at Bai Xiaochun.

“Don't think too much about it. Remember, you stay behind me when the time comes to fight. I'm afraid many people will die …. " Li Qinghou sighed softly, then got up. Seeing that Bai Xiaochun seemed to be deep in thought, he grabbed down and clasped his shoulders.

"Let's go. I'd like to invite you to see someone from the Senior Generation. My own master! ”

Bai Xiaochun looked up in shock. This was the first time he had heard anything about Li Qinghou possessing a Master. From what he knew, the only person who could become a Master for Li Qinghou had to be at least a prime elder, or perhaps even one of the five patriarchs.

After taking a moment to calm down, he followed Li Qinghou from Daoseed Mountain. As they climbed higher, Bai Xiaochun was surprised to find that Li Qinghou was actually flying into the air behind Daoseed Mountain.

There seemed to be nothing behind Daoseed Mountain except the water flowing from the Heavenspan River.
