A Path of Eternity

Ch. 82 - White Lotus Island

Li Xuan continued his journey towards the White Lotus Island, through the various obstacles he passed through, not least he was involved in some situations and conditions that should make him exert all his survival abilities.

White Lotus Island was ranked among the 3 independent great regions namely, the Heavenly Star Empire, the Ancient Jade Empire, and also a free Region on the southern coast of the Southern Earth Continent.

It is said that the region is a territory without power, many rulers of the territory are scattered there, and also according to some news circulating, in the region there is a towering mountain, a mountain, the residence of the Smith Emperor Taiyang Huo's strongest cultivator, then people named the mountain by the name, Divine Weapon Mountain.

At the western end of the region was also the headquarters of the black-flow super sect, the Black Hell Sect, a very mysterious and also hidden black-flow sect, they controlled the end of that free territory, he said, then at the other end was the Divine Weapon Mountain that Taiyang Huo lived in as its ruler.

It could be said that the Treasure Weapon Mountain was at the eastern end close to the border between the Heavenly Star Empire, the Ancient Jade Empire, and also that Free Region, as well, so it is quite close to White Lotus Island which incidentally is in the middle of the center of the third border area.

White Lotus Island stood in the middle of a vast lake, with many Demonic Beast tribe tribes living within it, making its route extremely dangerous.

Even with its lake area reaching thousands or even hundreds of thousands of kilometers, making even ordinary Nascent Life cultivators have to pass through it by riding a boat and fighting to get rid of some Demonic Beasts that will get in the way, making even ordinary Nascent Life cultivators have to pass through it by riding a boat and fighting to get rid of some Demonic Beasts that will get in the way, because of its long distance.

Including an ordinary Nascent Life final circle cultivator, because there was a barrier formation in the middle of the lake that prevented people with cultivation under the cultivator who installed it from flying.

The barrier could only be bypassed by anyone who was of the same level or higher cultivation from that barrier installer, as well as certain special people who were allowed.

Therefore it can be ascertained, that the person who can pass through the barrier is only the Pill Emperor Yao Lao himself who is also a special barrier maker on his island, a unique barrier that increased his strength was following the cultivation level of his installer.

Making the barrier an obstacle before heading for the island itself, other than the water tribe tribes of the Demonic Beasts who had lived in the White Lotus Lake for hundreds or even thousands of years.

Not even there, on his island there are thousands of dangerous and deadly Demonic Beast tribes that have inhabited him for centuries, even from before Yao Lao occupied the island.

However, Yao Lao himself lived comfortably on the island, precisely at the top of the mountain located in the middle of the island, the mountain itself people named it as Medicine Mountain.

From the story that circulated, when Yao Lao was wandering to fulfill the task of his teacher, he found the island by accident, then reported it, with a little help from his teacher, perhaps in dealing with those Demonic Beasts, with some consideration from his teacher, Yao Lao ended up staying on the island.

Many guessed the strength of the teacher of the Pill Emperor, reportedly there were people who had seen his fight with several cultivators, then wrote his short story in an ancient literature record.

In the manuscript is told an epic battle that even according to the author to disturb the balance of nature, lucky he could survive and make the manuscript, which consists of several notes collected into one.

However, without any hard evidence of the story, centuries and centuries passed, the story ended up being a mere fairy tale, the builders of the willpower and also the spirit of the human race in the continent to reach a high level of cultivation in order to be like him.

At the top of the mountain of an island surrounded by a vast lake, it looks like 3 old people are relaxing and discussing, among others, they were none other than the Emperors who were waiting for Li Xuan's arrival at the peak of the Medicinal Mountain where Yao Lao was staying.

" Huh.. I might soon be weathered waiting for his arrival, wouldn't it be if waiting like this time seemed to move more slowly? " said Taiyang Huo.

" You alone submitted this first exam, just a week after Xuan'er left the city, if you follow my plan to bring Xuan'er straight here maybe we will have additional activities that are not boring" Yao Lao said.

" In fact this level of Xuan'er's cultivation looks very lagging, yet due to his terrifying talent in controlling Qi, aided by his tenth root energy, he became so powerful even in his current cultivation, " said Yao Lao.

" Have let him train with me, in my direction and also in my teaching, a new Divine Foundation will be born, you take it easy, hahaha... " said Taiyang Huo who was still holding his wine cup.

" You are this.. Even without the direction of the three of us, I'm sure Xuan'er will be able to reach the Divine Foundation in the future, let alone with the cultivation practice manual he used, are you aware of it right Fengtian? " said Yao Lao.

" Yes.. It was no ordinary practice manual, you know, actually I heard from a century ago, that there is actually still an ancient practice manual left on our continent, but due to the lack of information, the news circulating was only that, " Luo Fengtian said.

" Then I understand, how about we find that practice manual now, maybe we can give it to Xuan'er in order to become someone very strong and powerful in the future? " said Taiyang Huo.

" For someone who bears the strongest and highest title of an Emperor, it turns out that you are too stupid Taiyang Huo, " Yao Lao said.

" What did you say!? " Taiyang Huo was provoked by his best friend Yao Lao's remark.

" Hey, you guys.. Isn't it just a joke you think? " said Luo Fengtian trying to mediate.

" You two know those two teachers Xuan'er mentioned? " said Luo Fengtian.

" Yes, I know it a little, the black and white cultivators call them his strongest cultivators who are born only once every few hundred years" Taiyang Huo said.

" I'm quite familiar with both of them, even more so because they are poison users as well as an alchemist, making it hard for me not to know them" Yao Lao said.

" And do you know that Fang Hao's origin sect, the Heavenly Mountain Sect is the oldest sect that exists in this Southern Earth Continent? " said Luo Fengtian.

" Emm.. Yeah, I was like I had heard of it, " Yao Lao said back.

" I know from my parents, but I don't understand at all, what are you talking about!? " shouted Taiyang Huo.

" Huh.. I guess from the first your stupidity and silliness is just something made, it turns out that it is purely residing in your old and large body, "said Yao Lao.

" uh.. Discuss the two of you, I will wait for what you will find out from the discussion, " said Taiyang Huo left from where the three gathered.

" Okay, then? I've been able to catch you saying it's actually Fengtian, yet don't you feel too quick to speculate? " ask Yao Lao.

" Yes this is still the result of my rough thinking, for more details we can confirm it through the sect itself, well this conversation we have already finished here, for more details, I want to walk a little way to move my body, we'll just meet up later in a few more weeks here, " Luo Fengtian said leaving Yao Lao.

" Huh.. Hopefully you can get here safely Xuan'er, "murm Yao Lao.
