127: Chapter 127 The Spiritual Power Within the Body

Bai Yu sat in his room for three days.

On the fourth day, he opened his eyes.

“Early Stage Immortal Venerable.”

He stood up and stretched his muscles and bones.

The spiritual Qi within his body was several times stronger than before.

When he walked out of the room, the courtyard was quiet.

The Fifteen Disciples were all cultivating in their respective rooms.

Bai Yu did not disturb them and turned to walk toward the back mountain.

By the small lake on the back mountain, a person was sitting.

It wasn't Luo Bingli.

It was an unfamiliar old man.

The old man wore tattered hemp clothes, and his hair was a mess.

“Who are you?” Bai Yu gripped the true immortal sword tightly.

“Don't be nervous.” The old man waved his hand, “I'm not here to fight.”

“Then what are you here for?”

“To see you.” The old man turned his head, “I heard a new Heavenly Dao appeared in the Lower Realm, so I came to take a look.”

Bai Yu sized him up.

This old man's aura was very strange.

He couldn't see his cultivation level, yet he felt very dangerous.

“Who exactly are you?”

“I am called Wuming.” The old man smiled, “A loose Cultivator.”

“A loose Cultivator?” Bai Yu didn't believe it, “Can a loose Cultivator just enter the Heavenly Sword Sect at will?”

“Haha, I've been seen through by you.” The old man stood up, “Actually, I'm here to give you something.”

He pulled a Jade Slip out from his robe.

“What is this?”

“Heavenly Dao Legacy.” The old man handed over the Jade Slip, “It records the cultivation insights of past generations of the Heavenly Dao.”

Bai Yu took the Jade Slip.

His Divine Thought probed into it, and there were indeed a vast amount of cultivation insights inside.

“Why are you giving this to me?”

“Because I have high hopes for you.” The old man turned to walk down the mountain, “And I owe your Master a favor.”

“My Master?” Bai Yu was stunned, “You know my Master?”

“I do.” The old man didn't look back, “That was something from thirty thousand years ago.”

After saying that, he disappeared on the mountain path.

Bai Yu stood in place, looking at the Jade Slip in his hand.

“Something from thirty thousand years ago?”

He couldn't recall his Master having such a friend.

Forget it, he would look at the contents of the Jade Slip first.

Bai Yu sat cross-legged and began to comprehend the Jade Slip.

There was a lot of content inside.

From the origin of the Heavenly Dao to the duties of the Heavenly Dao.

There were also various cultivation insights.

Bai Yu was engrossed in reading.

After an unknown amount of time, he opened his eyes.

“So that's how it is.”

He finally understood.

The Heavenly Dao was not eternal.

But it couldn't be replaced easily either.

As long as one's cultivation was strong enough, one could continue to be it.

Furthermore, the Heavenly Dao had a secret.

Every Heavenly Dao could choose a successor.

When the Heavenly Dao fell, the successor would automatically become the new Heavenly Dao.

“Successor...”

Bai Yu thought of his Fifteen Disciples.

If one day he really died...

Who would be the successor?

Bai Wuji?

Or Luo Bingli?

Bai Yu shook his head.

It was still too early to think about these things.

He stood up and returned to the courtyard.

The Fifteen Disciples had already finished their seclusion.

“Master, you've made a Breakthrough?” Bai Wuji walked over.

“Yes, Early Stage Immortal Venerable.”

“Congratulations, Master.”

Bai Yu nodded and looked at everyone.

“How has your cultivation been lately?”

“Everyone has made progress.” Bai Wuji paused, “Luo Bingli has broken through to Peak Immortal Emperor.”

“Not bad.”

Bai Yu walked in front of Luo Bingli.

“Let me see how your Ice and Fire Fusion practice is going.”

Luo Bingli raised her hand, and a ball of purple flame appeared in her palm.

The flame was very stable; ice and fire were perfectly fused.

“Very good.” Bai Yu nodded with satisfaction, “Keep it up.”

He turned to look at the others.

“The same goes for you all, do not slack off.”

“Yes.”

Just then, the sky darkened again.

Lin Tian gripped the dragon emperor spear: “Again?”

Bai Yu looked up.

This time it wasn't a black rift.

It was a golden light.

The light landed in the courtyard and transformed into a Young Man.

It was precisely the Void.

“Lord of the Void?” Bai Yu was somewhat surprised, “Why are you here?”

“I've come to find you for a matter.” The Void looked at him, “Something has gone wrong in the Lower Realm.”

“What problem?”

“Someone is secretly destroying the order of the Lower Realm.” The Void paused, “And this person's strength is very great.”

“How strong?”

“At least Late Stage Immortal Venerable.”

Bai Yu's expression changed.

Late Stage Immortal Venerable?

He was only at the Early Stage Immortal Venerable right now.

“Do you know who it is?”

“I don't know.” The Void shook his head, “But I can feel that this person is related to the Blood God Cult.”

“Blood God Cult?” Bai Yu frowned, “Didn't I already kill Blood Heaven?”

“Blood Heaven was only the cult leader of the Blood God Cult.” The Void looked at him, “The Blood God Cult also has a Grand Elder.”

“A Grand Elder?”

“Yes, he is called Blood Vault of Heaven.” The Void paused, “His strength is at the Peak Immortal Venerable stage.”

Bai Yu fell silent.

Peak Immortal Venerable.

This was indeed a big trouble.

“Where is he now?”

“I don't know.” The Void shook his head, “But he is definitely in the Lower Realm.”

“And his target is you.”

Bai Yu clenched his fist.

“I understand.”

“Be careful.” The Void turned to leave, “This Blood Vault of Heaven is very insidious.”

“He won't fight you head-on.”

“He will use all sorts of means to weaken you.”

After saying that, he disappeared on the spot.

The courtyard returned to tranquility.

The Fifteen Disciples looked at Bai Yu.

“Master, what do we do now?” Bai Wuji asked.

“Strengthen the defenses.” Bai Yu thought for a moment, “Then send people out to gather information.”

“I'll go.” Sikong Zhaiyue walked out from the shadows.

“I'll go too.” Sword Nameless spoke coldly.

“Good.” Bai Yu nodded, “You two go together.”

“Remember, only gather information, do not act rashly.”

“Understood.”

The two left the Heavenly Sword Sect.

The others began to strengthen the defenses.

Chu Han set up several more Formations outside the mountain gate.

Jin Wusuan clicked his abacus, calculating possible dangers.

Medicine Not So began to refine some special Medicinal Pills.

Bai Yu stood on the mountain peak, looking into the distance.

“Blood Vault of Heaven...”

He gripped the true immortal sword tightly.

This battle, I'm afraid, will not be that easy.

Night fell.

Lanterns were lit in the courtyard.

The Fifteen Disciples sat in a circle, discussing countermeasures.

“Eldest Senior Brother, how do you think Blood Vault of Heaven will deal with Master?” Luo Bingli asked.

“I don't know.” Bai Wuji shook his head, “But it certainly won't be a head-on confrontation.”

“Then what will it be?”

“Maybe a sneak attack.” Lin Tian gripped the dragon emperor spear, “Or maybe poisoning.”

“It could also be...” Gu Dusheng scratched his head, “Forget it, I can't think of anything.”

Everyone looked at each other.

They all knew that the coming days would not be peaceful.

But they also knew that Master would definitely win.

Because Master was Bai Yu.

He was the strongest Heavenly Dao of the Lower Realm.

On the mountain peak.

Bai Yu was still standing there.

The night wind blew, making his robes rustle loudly.

He closed his eyes.

His Divine Thought swept across the entire Lower Realm.

Searching for traces of Blood Vault of Heaven.

But he found nothing.

“Hiding quite deep.”

Bai Yu opened his eyes.

Since he couldn't find him, then he would wait for him to appear on his own.

He would come sooner or later anyway.

When the time came, he would just kill him with one sword strike.

Bai Yu stood on the mountain peak all night.

At dawn, Sikong Zhaiyue and Sword Nameless returned.

Both of their expressions were not very good.

“How is it?” Bai Yu asked.
