Chapter 1031: A Bit Of Warmth
“Eventually… the people froeneration to generation down to this very day That is our nation… the Vile-Emperor Dynasty, one of the two imperial dynasties that exists in the Eternal Lands, and also… the most powerful!
“Eventually, the Vile-Emperor Dynasty took note of the other two statues of the Eternal Sons They knew that one day, the two statues would break open, and the hosts of living beings inside would einally, the Vile-Emperor Dynasty had intended to welcome the people froreat enemy But before they could prepare properly, the second statue… unexpectedly shattered The people inside were teleported to all sorts of locations in the Eternal Lands Unexpectedly, they were not interested in fighting the great enemy They were bent on conquest, and in the end, the Vile-Eo to war… It was around that time that an archaean appeared from within the newly arrived imperial clan Thankfully, the Vile-Emperor was already in that same cultivation level In order to prevent a horrific situation for their peoples, they eventually hed in the te of alcohol, and then chuckled
Bai Xiaochun could see through to the truth almost immediately The Vile-Emperor Dynasty had hoped to control all of the Eternal Lands, but the second Eternal Son statue had opened before they were in a place to do so The people froht back until the Vile-Emperor Dynasty had no choice but to declare a truce
Obviously, that other inally, there should have been three ih
“I know, Master The third imperial dynasty was supposed to be the Arch-E that the third Eternal Son statue shattered recently?”
When Bai Xiaochun heard the boy’s words, he looked down at the alcohol jug, his hand tre
“Sadly, the third Eternal Son statue was supposed to produce the Arch-Eht now, the Vile-Emperor Dynasty essentially controls three of the immortal domains There are two immortal domains that are mostly under the control of Saint-E about!
“The only thing the Arch-Eood for now is to bolster the forces of the other two ioal of it all is to deal with the great Enemy from Beyond Of course, the sanctimonious Saint-Emperor Dynasty is weak and useless Our Vile-Eth of the Eternal Lands, and its only hope!” By the tiot to the last part of his speech, his voice resonated with devotion and zeal
Bai Xiaochun lay there slu as he lifted the alcohol jug and took another drink, hoping that he would soon be numb to the bitterness that dwelled in his heart
This toas in the third immortal domain, which was controlled by the Vile-Emperor Dynasty The five ihly the saer than the Heavenspan Realm In fact, the Heavenspan Realm would only count as one of the iven immortal domain
Each immortal domain had dozens of prefectures Within the prefectures were dozens of counties, and within the counties were hundreds of cities and towns of varying sizes…
The little town that Bai Xiaochun was in was just such a place
In the Eternal Lands, the relationship between cultivators and mortals was somewhat different than in the Heavenspan Realm Here, the cultivators took care of the mortals, as well as the land itself
Each immortal doods, would oversee the prefectures
Of course, the deods had subordinates too, devas who ran the various counties Usually, Nascent Soul experts would be in charge of the larger cities, with the s run by Core Formation cultivators
Not every celestial would be appointed to serve as the ruler of an immortal domain For example, in the Vile-Emperor Dynasty, there were only three celestials with such responsibility, while the other handful remained stationed in Vile-Ee of Vile-E it!
“The Eternal Lands…” Bai Xiaochun murmured Whether it was in terms of sheer size, or the number of powerful experts present, the Eternal Lands vastly surpassed the Heavenspan Realm People like Daoist Heavenspan who had not yet beco the Mahayana Real celestials could someone truly be counted as a powerful expert in the Eternal Lands
Above the Celestial Real level, and in all of the Eternal Lands, there were only two such people, the two emperors
From what Bai Xiaochun could tell, quasi-archaeans were people in the great circle of the Celestial Realm, or people who had failed to actually becohost face caht Then he shook his head Every ties would appear in his mind
He would see friends and family from the Heavenspan Real his first few , it had been easy to track down the aura of the Heavenspan Realers, and some ere familiar faces Each time he had trerief
At some point, the old man and the boy moved on from the temple When they did, the boy couldn’t conceal his exciteical technique
Eventually, the sun set Bai Xiaochun was still lying there against the temple wall, as drunk as ever He almost looked like he was asleep
Usually, he would only leave this spot when he ran out of alcohol Then he would stagger over to the tavern to buy ainst the wall, and watch the sun rising and setting, or look up at the strange hands and the evil face in the sky
Days turned into a blur Bai Xiaochun had no idea how ly beard now, and his clothing was so dirty it threatened to turn black
He no longer thought about the past Unwilling to deal with the pain, he entered a state of almost complete mental blankness
Sometimes a dried-up leaf would land in front of him, and he would stare at it for the entire day… It was al at the leaf, he could see all of the happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy it had experienced in its life
One thing he loved hen night fell and, fro the little town Each of those flickering lamps represented a family…
He looked at them until his tears ran dry Sadly, the lamp of his heart seeht, thunder ruan to fall, almost as cold as ice Clearly, winter was on the way
Bai Xiaochun looked up into the night, and the rain splashed onto his face For the first time, he actually felt cold However, it was also in that same moment that he looked down at the back of his hand, to the spark-shaped scar that was the spot where Bai Hao had perished
“It’s war tie As he looked down at his hand, his disheveled hair fell down to cover his face, and yet, it couldn’t cover the confused shock in his eyes He suddenly began to pant
“It’s warht in front of his nose For the first ti time, his eyes were not cloudy and diht of surprise
Deep within his gaze, a stubborn determination suddenly erupted to life
“It’s war voice Unable to stop his hand fro, he sent some divine sense into it, and specifically, the spark-shaped mark on it
He had done this on numerous occasions before, but his divine sense had never detected anything in particular But now it did All of a sudden, his dry eyes began to overfloith tears
“Hao’er… you’re not dead!!” All of a sudden, mad excitement rose up inside of hi co inside his mind and heart He could sense Bai Hao’s aura! Deep inside the mark on his hand, he could sense Bai Hao as an incredibly weak discarnate soul!
He was as fragile as a candle flickering in the wind And yet, within that weakness, he showed a tenacious refusal to be destroyed Unfortunately, it would be , and recover
Shaking physically, Bai Xiaochun grabbed one hand with the other and then pushed the his unkely beard, he looked very ar who had just found the ems As the rain fell down on him, it was for the first time since he arrived in the Eternal Lands… that he smiled
