A Will Eternal – Chapter 811

Chapter 811: A Pawn.

The Underworld River Restricted Area is one of the few restricted areas in the Wildlands …. The reason why such an area was called ‘dimited’ was because ordinary soul cultivators would have difficulty even entering them, and if they were to succeed in that attempt, it would most likely die as a result. The only way to traverse these areas safely is with a special commando medal.

Not surprisingly, the Unrestricted Area of the Underworld River actually contained a river. During the day, it appeared to be nothing more than a dry and ordinary riverbed. However, after midnight had passed ..The Underworld River would manifest, flowing through the area for some distance before disappearing into the night.

Thus, the area became a forbidden area. After all, the Underworld River was usually illusory, and would only appear in the human world under special circumstances or use special techniques.

But in this area, the Underworld River would naturally appear every night after midnight!

Of course, all limited areas of the Wildlands had unique objects that would appear. Such objects were used in the Arch-Emperor Dynasty both for cultivation purposes, and also as a means to refine the great magical device that was Arch-Emperor City.

For example, in the Underworld River Restricted Region, there was an underworld rainbow that would appear above the river at night. They are illusory, and also temporary, but by using special techniques, it is possible to harvest them.

Due to this general state of affairs, the forbidden areas were controlled by the military forces of Arch-Emperor City all year round. As for the Underworld River Restricted Area, there was a brigade of 3,000 people imprisoned there.

The most powerful warriors were in the large circle of the Nascent Soul stage. He was not a heavenly marquis, but rather, one of the personal guards of the Grand Heavenmaster. Most of the other soul cultivators were at the Core Formation stage.

Although it might seem like a stretch to say that these 3,000 could protect Bai Xiaochun, the truth was that they reported directly to the Grand Heavenmaster, the truth was that they were reporting directly to the Grand Heavenmaster, they were stronger than they had based on cultivation base alone. Although there were definitely members of the nobility and aristocracy who would secretly move against Bai Xiaochun, even the four heavenly kings would not casually cross the Grand Heavenmaster.

Annihilating that power would be the same as declaring war on the Grand Heavenmaster.

As for the general mission of the brigade, it was only to harvest the rainbow of the underworld.

Bai Xiaochun and Zhou Yixing spent several days traveling to the Underworld River Restricted Area. Bai Xiaochun was in no hurry, and continued at a steady speed on the heavenly plane. Although the landscape in the Wildlands was barren and gloomy, it did not detract from Bai Xiaochun's mood at all. In fact, he took the time to visit the many clans of necromancers along the way, and they would always shower him with gifts. Overall, it was a fun trip.

When they finally reached the Underworld River Restricted Area, it was night. The 3,000 soldiers stationed there have been told that he will arrive, and are waiting to receive him.

There were five people standing in front of the brigade, all of them Nascent Soul experts. One of them was a middle-aged man, who was none other than the colonel leading the brigade. Standing behind him were four other Nascent Soul experts, two of whom were at the late stage, and two at the middle stage.

They had already gotten information about who Bai Xiaochun was. They knew that he was not only a worldly necromancer, but he was also the type of person who could shake all of the Wildlands with a single stamp of his feet.

Moreover, as they were from the personal bodyguards of the Grand Heavenmaster, and had received special orders from him to do whatever Bai Xiaochun said, he said, none of them hesitated to treat him with the utmost respect.

As the group waited, Bai Xiaochun's heavenly plane appeared in the distance and then floated towards them in the air. When it stopped, Zhou Yixing flew out, landed on the ground, and then looked around warily, just like a loyal servant did. When his gaze was fixed on the 3,000-man brigade, he looked surprised.

After studying the situation closer to ensure that there was no hidden danger, he took a few steps back, then turned to the heavenly plane and clasped his hands.

"Grandmaster Bai, your presence is requested!" he said in a loud voice. The brigade colonel hesitated for just a moment before clasping his hands and calling out in the same manner. After which, the entire brigade voiced the same words.

"Grandmaster Bai, your presence is requested!"

At that moment, Bai Xiaochun appeared above on the deck of the heavenly plane, his hands clasped behind his back. After glancing at Zhou Yixing, he flew up and landed in front of the 3,000-man brigade.

"I am your humble servant Wu Dao" said the colonel. “Greetings, Grandmaster Bai! If you have a request, then your humble servant will do anything and everything possible to see it fulfilled! " With that, Colonel Wu Dao clasped his hands and bowed deeper than before.

"There's no need for any of that, Fellow Daoist Wu," he said with a sincere smile. “I actually have a very weak cultivation base! The Grand Heavenmaster sent me here to work on my necromancy, and I am sure that I will need a lot of help from you in the days to come! " This is how Bai Xiaochun was. When people treat them politely, they will treat them with more courtesy in return.

Of course, Wu Dao responded with a more respectful and dazzled look than before. Inwardly, he was actually a little impressed with this Grandmaster Bai. Despite being an earthly necromancer, he was not at all arrogant. The colonel could immediately tell that there was more to him than he had seen. He first mentioned his own weakness, then raised the Grand Heavenmaster, and then implied that he was only here to work on necromancy, and not stay in the long run. It showed that he had no interest in seizing the colonel's position or power.

In fact, even Wu Dao himself did not feel that the power he commanded was very valuable, therefore he was very happy to be treated in such a way.

Bai Xiaochun had already managed to make a good impression. The soldiers quickly crowded around him and brought him to the military base in the Underworld River Restricted Area.

After all the formalities were taken care of, Wu Dao gave Bai Xiaochun the best residence, as well as a detailed explanation of everything related to the Underworld River Restricted Area. Finally, the night began to fall, where he handed over two command medals and then left.

Bai Xiaochun's residence was not in the open; it was covered by a high wall. That, coupled with the fact that it was in the middle of a military base, made it seem very safe and protected.

Moreover, it did not only consist of a single room, but rather, a main room and two side rooms.

Bai Xiaochun was very pleased. After Wu Dao left, Zhou Yixing set up some spell formations to secure the area. Then he reported to Bai Xiaochun.

"Wu Dao is telling the truth, sir," he said, holding his voice. “Every midnight, the Underworld River materializes here. When that happens, you can only get close to the river itself if you have a special command medal.

“Should have been, this location was not the source of the Underworld River, but it was still a strong convergence between life and death. That was why the Underworld River appeared here. In fact, it was the only place in the entire Wildlands where the river would naturally materialize.

“Because of its unique nature, this area is the perfect place for necromancers to seek enlightenment. Every time the Underworld River materialized, many souls would appear, which could be harvested using special methods. Of course, there are dangers involved, as one would expect. " All these things had been told to Bai Xiaochun by Wu Dao. However, Zhou Yixing used his own means to verify the information to make sure it was true.

Bai Xiaochun nodded. He already felt much more relaxed now that he was far from the vortex that was Arch-Emperor City. He no longer had to constantly worry about how to deal with the aristocracy, nor did he always have to be vigilant. Even though he did not have an army of corpses to rely on, he was still excited.

After a while had passed, Zhou Yixing lowered his voice further and said, "My master, um, what about Song Que …?"

Bai Xiaochun slapped his forehead when he realized that he had once again forgotten Song Que. It used to be when they left the city, he had instructed Zhou Yixing to put Song Que in a bag filled to carry, but in the few months since then, it had been a matter of time, he had never let her out into the open though.

"I'm really a bad uncle!" thinks guilty. He immediately told Zhou Yixing to bring Song Que out of the detention bag. When he appeared in the open, he looked somewhat pale, and even gasped for breath. Being stuck in a holding bag for months almost suffocates him. After getting his attitude, he looked at Bai Xiaochun in annoyance.

In response, Bai Xiaochun cleared his throat in embarrassment and then reached out to ruffle Song Que's hair. Although this felt very strange to Song Que, he did not dare to dodge.

In fact, he had realized that, ever since he arrived at the Inspection Manor, this Bai Hao had treated him quite well. Not only did he give him cultivation resources, as well as a measure of security, but he also gave him a bit of freedom.

After all the time had passed, he had mostly recovered from his previous ordeal. In fact, his cultivation base had even progressed. He was even convinced that, even though he had yet to surpass Bai Xiaochun, as long as he continued to follow this Bai Hao and benefit from the cultivation resources he provided, it was likely that he would soon do so.

"Hmph! Even if I cannot surpass Bai Xiaochun immediately, I am definitely in a much better position than him. He might be famous, but he was clearly running around like a rat, running from everyone and afraid to even show his face! In fact, if he were to show his face, he would definitely be killed in the blink of an eye! " Suddenly, Song Que came to the conclusion that meeting Bai Hao was a stroke of luck. Even if he was treated somewhat like a pet, it was worth it, and he would do all he could to stay with Bai Hao.

"A pet? Be it. This is the Wildlands, and no one knows who I am …. Hmph! Maybe I'm a pet, but at least I'm a pet worldly necromancer! Bai Xiaochun was not even qualified to be a pet at this time! " Comforting himself in this way, he pushed his head a little further so that Bai Xiaochun could ruffle his hair a little deeper ….
