A Will Eternal – Chapter 687
Chapter 687: Don't Worry, Your Majesty!
The Giant Ghost King's divine sense was not so strong that it could maintain the daily scrutiny of all of Giant Ghost City. It was even less considerate given how he was involved in his current plans. In fact, after issuing the call to Bai Xiaochun, he had already begun to completely change his overall plan.
The Ghost King Orchid Fruit was too important to him. No previous giant phantom king had ever reached his current level of progress. He had gathered four pieces so far, and only needed one more piece to make a complete set of five elements. With that complete set, he would be able to eliminate the flaws in the technique he developed.
Therefore, he was unwilling to accept the possibility of an accident. He needed to guarantee with one hundred percent certainty that he would get the ghost king's fruit. After all, if someone else got it, he would then be in a passive position, and it was impossible to say unexpected things what would happen.
The optimal result for him to get the fruit in his own way.
The Giant Ghost King was in the midst of pondering all these matters when the two guards returned with the unexpected news that Bai Xiaochun had gone to a long, half-year long secluded meditation session….
The Giant Ghost King's eyes widened, and his anger immediately began to burn. Shooting up his feet, he disappeared, to reappear right outside Bai Xiaochun's additional courtyard. Completely ignoring the spell formation protecting Bai Xiaochun's secluded meditation facility, he stepped forward to appear inside.
As soon as he appeared, he saw Bai Xiaochun, his face pale and eyes clouded, pushing into his chest as he coughed out a mouthful of blood…. Although he looked surprised to find another person in his secluded meditation room, he managed to stand up, then he clasped his hands and bowed.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
The Giant Ghost King was somewhat surprised by how much blood Bai Xiaochun had just coughed up, and how weak he was. After scanning him with divine sense, he could feel the instability in his cultivation base, where his face darkened.
"How did this happen?" he asked with a growl.
"Your highness…." Bai Xiaochun smiled bitterly and shook his head. Sighing deeply, he wiped the blood from his lips, lowered his voice, and continued, “Your humble servant went to hell and high water for you. Unfortunately, my cultivation base is not strong enough, and in my hasty push to the early stages of Nascent Soul, I made some mistakes …. "
Although his voice trembled every week, his eyes shone with determination to continue speaking.
"But don't worry, Your Majesty, all I need is half a year, and I'll be back to normal!" Seemingly calling out effort, he slapped his chest to emphasize his words, looking like the type of person who would not hesitate to die for the sake of his sovereignty. At the same time, he secretly sized up the Giant Ghost King, and swore that he would not go to any dangerous area no matter what. Giant Ghost City is definitely the safest place ….
The Giant Ghost King's expression flickered as he pondered the situation. After looking at Bai Xiaochun from top to bottom, he finally decided that everything was too coincidental. How could it be, just when the Ghost King Orchid was in bloom, causing such a huge uproar among all the chosen ones on the ground, that Bai Hao's cultivation base would suddenly have problems? However, now was not the time to sort through Bai Xiaochun's words. Waving his hand, he summoned a medicinal pill.
It was pure white, and it shone with a dazzling light. Inside it could be seen the image of a dragon, and it emitted a shocking medicinal fragrance. As soon as Bai Xiaochun saw it, his eyes widened, and he even gasped. This was the first time he had seen a medicinal pill in the Wildlands.
As a grandmaster apothecary, he could immediately tell that this was some kind of holy medicine designed to heal injuries. In fact, it seemed to surpass the Vestly G.o.dly Pill he had used in the past. It's really unprecedented!
Medicinal pills like these could be considered rare even in the Heavenspan River region, let alone in the Wildlands, where medicinal pills were almost non-existent. Clearly, it was a precious item for the Giant Ghost King.
"The name of this pill is Heavencleaving Good Fortune Pill. You can only eat nine in your life, and the reason that my decay period is so short is because I consume nine at a time. Anyone who consumes it under normal circumstances will experience a full recovery from all injuries in just one breath of time.
“Take a minute to think. Even if you are seriously injured, you will carry out this mission, whether you want to or not. If you refuse to take the pill, and fail the mission, I will not cause you any trouble. But if you consume it, then you must definitely succeed in the mission! " The Giant Ghost King spoke in a tone that did not trigger a debate, then looked at Bai Xiaochun with glittering eyes as he flicked his finger and sent a medicinal pill flying into Bai Xiaochun's mouth.
Bai Xiaochun shivered in fear, but still managed to reach out and snatch the pill from the air. Scowling on the verge of tears, he looked back at the king, cursing inwardly, but knew he had no choice in the matter. Given how resolutely acting the Giant Ghost King was, Bai Xiaochun could tell that it was exactly as the man had said: he would go on this mission whether he wanted to or not ….
Although he felt very wrong about all of this, he did not let it appear on his face. In fact, it was at this point that some cracking sounds suddenly sounded from within him, and his previously unstable cultivation base suddenly returned to normal.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely complete the mission!" he said it out loud.
"You've recovered?" The Giant Ghost King asked, his eyes narrowed as he smiled.
"eeee? You said it before I even realized it, Your Majesty! Wow, this is awesome! The breakthrough of my cultivation base came because I have an audience with you, and now I have recovered for the same reason! Both of these developments happen because of meeting you in person! Your Majesty, your power surpasses all creation, like a dragon flying to the highest heaven. A quick glance from you is like consuming a healing holy medicine! " All of Bai Xiaochun's flattery was conveyed without the slightest flushing, and uttered sincerely.
The Giant Ghost King sighed, well aware of what Bai Xiaochun was doing. Not worried about how cunning Bai Xiaochun was trying to become, the expression of the Giant Ghost King turned grim as he proceeded to give some more information on what was to come.
Bai Xiaochun listened attentively, and afterward, completely heaved a sigh of relief. After all, he knew that, given how incredible he was, he could crush anyone who tried to make a move against him.
The more he listened, the wider his eyes became, and the more his heart started pounding on the fact that almost everyone was cooperating against the Giant Ghost King.
"We are talking about the many visible heirs to the kings of heaven, plus those chosen from the nobility and aristocracy of Arch-Emperor City! Although not all of them reached the Nascent Soul stage with a deva beast soul, there were definitely some…. Plus, they will all work together against me …. ” Pout it back soon. All the cultivators who would go to this court with fire were chosen very strongly. Although Bai Xiaochun knew himself to be extraordinary, even a tiger could not fight against a pack of greedy wolves. The slightest misstep on his part, and his poor little life would be in danger ….
"Damn it, why is it that only Nascent Soul cultivators can go !? It would be much better if most of the people were at the Core Formation stage …. " Even though she wanted to cry, there were no tears flowing. The truth was that even if he was stronger than him, he would still not be confident. However, recalling the stubborn expression on the Giant Ghost King's face, he knew that there was nothing he could do but nod in agreement.
However, even such a guarantee did not remove Bai Xiaochun's facial wrinkles. At this point, the Giant Ghost King lowered his voice and said, “Don't forget the limiting spell that connects the two of us. Do you really think I'll send you somewhere to be killed? "
After hearing that, Bai Xiaochun's mood brightened slightly. The more he thought about it, the less likely it was that someone would attempt to cause trouble for him. Moreover, based on what the Giant Ghost King had said, it seemed like there would be someone inside who would help him if he needed it.
After offering a few more words of instruction, the Giant Ghost King handed Bai Xiaochun a bottle of medicine, where there were eight Heaven-Related Fortune Pills! Including the one he gave a moment ago, it made a total of nine!
After looking at all those pills, Bai Xiaochun felt more confident than before.
With that, the Giant Ghost King left, simultaneously giving orders to the Deathcrier Duke to accompany Bai Xiaochun on the giant ghost warship to the Necromancer Kettle.
**
The giant ghost warship was a huge black plane that pierced through the sky at an incredible speed. It had a gigantic ghost statue on it that emitted a black light, as well as a terrifying aura.
Bai Xiaochun was currently standing on the deck of the warship, sighing listlessly. Next to him was the Deathcrier Duke, who was looking at him with a puzzled expression. Chuckling, the Duke Deathcrier said, “What's with furrowed brows, Majordomo Bai? You don't frown like that even when the three gods are after you. ”
"What nonsense …." Bai Xiaochun thought to himself. Back when the three gods were chasing him, he had plenty of secret weapons to summon. He knew that the Giant Ghost King would recover within a few days, and was therefore willing to take great risks. The current situation is not like that.
However, he also realized that now was not the time to be weak or afraid. Standing more upright than before, he smacked his chest hard and said, "You saw something, Duke Deathcrier. I didn't frown, I thought! And this was not a furrowed eyebrow, it was an expression of killing intent! "
The Duke Deathcrier's expression turned even stranger, but he did not say anything more.
The two of them did not talk much for the rest of the journey. Finally, Bai Xiaochun realized that there was a large group of vengeful souls moving on the ground below them.
When the Duke Deathcrier noticed what he saw, he offered a brief explanation. “Every time the Necromancer Kettle is opened, it attracts a lot of vengeful souls. They instinctively tried to get into that place …. ”
Surprised, Bai Xiaochun realized more than ever that this Necromancer Kettle was definitely an incredible place, as well as a dangerous one. Another two hours passed, and now, the battleship was already in the territory of the real large kettle.
It was night time, and the previously clear sky was now clogged with clouds. Moreover, it was possible to see the shocking Ghost King Orchid in the distance!
Countless vengeful souls swirled around the Ghost King Orchid area, filling the sky and the ground, creating a shouting vortex that nobody dared to approach.
Bai Xiaochun had actually arrived earlier, and there was no one else in the area. He was the first.
However, it gave him plenty of time to study the surrounding area. Before long, he could see a huge kettle under the Ghost King Orchid!
It was pitch-black, and looked very ancient. Furthermore, it was the black mist coming out from the kettle itself that created the Misty Ghost King Orchid Orchid above.
This is the Necromancer Kettle!
Bai Xiaochun flinched, and his heart trembled. Even with a single glance, he could tell that this kettle was some kind of magical item ….
"There are other heavens and earths inside the Necromancer Kettle," explained the Deathcrier Duke. "Origin is a mystery, but according to some legends, it comes from beyond the heavens. Another story says that it was a valuable item belonging to the first generation Arch-Emperor. At this point, it is very unlikely to determine the truth. As for the Ghost King Orchid, it actually grew in a basin in the middle of the kettle world.
"In it is huge, but all you have to do is fly to the center of the place, and you will find the basin …. Incidentally, according to all the records we have, it will actually take some time after the mist flower forms the original shape of the Ghost King Orchid to mature.
"All you have to do is take the fruit, and once you get out, I'll protect you. If anyone dares to attack you or steal the fruit from you at that time, His Majesty the king will personally come to handle this situation.
"In the kettle, you'll be alone." The Deathcrier Duke then proceeded to offer some more warning and advice.
Bai Xiaochun felt more nervous than before, but continued to tell himself that everything would be fine.
Moments later, rays of light were visible from afar, some coming from the direction of Arch-Emperor City, and others coming from the other three king cities. Several other people approached from the teleportation portal in the area.
