Chapter 649: Chapter 649 – Waiting
Bai An left Yiu Ruo after chatting for a while and took away with him a bottle of pale golden blood, letting Yiu Ruo fulfill her promise.
This was Yiu Ruo’s blood. To a certain extent, Yiu Ruo, who was born from the incarnation of the Sky Heavenly Weapon, had an extraordinary nature. Just a bit of blood was sufficient to reveal its unique and extraordinary nature, where its shocking divinity was emitted.
Bai An had an inexplicable feeling about the divinity in the blood, as if the Dao rhyme had baptized him in it. Even the true spirit, which had already evolved to the extreme, had a brand-new feeling, as if it had been reborn.
Of course, it was just a feeling. In essence, although Yiu Ruo was powerful, a little bit of her blood was not enough to make an existence at Bai An’s level undergo a transformation, but just had some enlightenment and opportunities at most.
However, for Bai An, this was enough. Even a little enlightenment and opportunity was extremely rare for someone at his level and could be considered a huge harvest.
…
Thus, he left the place where Yiu Ruo lived and made a promise. They agreed to meet in a thousand years and challenge the so-called sect of the Immortal World together.
According to what Yiu Ruo said, the so-called sect of the Immortal World will open within a very limited time. They would have to wait at a specific time and place and wait for the subsequent ten thousand years once they missed it. This opportunity was very rare for them and absolutely could not be missed.
Bai An agreed with Yiu Ruo’s words, and after leaving her place, he continued his journey and wandered through many places. He did not stop his exploration and toured this piece of land, treading through the so-called danger zones, looking for natural creation in them, and trying to increase his cultivation base.
After hundreds of years, he managed to find some natural creation and increased a portion of his cultivation base. Of course, while Bai An was growing and strengthening himself in the mortal world, Chen Heng was not idle either.
During these hundreds of years, he had been digesting some of the things Yiu Ruo had left behind, including her blood and the few mystical materials Yiu Ruo had given to Bai An. Most mystical materials were shards of the Earth Heavenly Weapons from the past. It was unknown when Yiu Ruo had found them, but she had given them to Bai An.
During these hundreds of years, Chen Heng had been in metamorphosis. On the one hand, he comprehended the Dao rhythm in Yiu Ruo’s blood essence. On the other hand, he was devouring the shards of the divine weapons, attempting to strengthen himself.
His strength had also increased slightly after hundreds of years. His improvement was much more significant than Bai An. The shards of Dao Principles in You Ruo’s blood essence had given Chen Heng a great harvest and even allowed him to condense a unique mark in his body, which had already taken shape.
When Chen Heng had wholly digested the harvest, a long time had already passed. The day that Bai An and Yiu Ruo had agreed to meet was not too far away. Like Chen Heng, Bai An was also thinking about the agreement with Yiu Ruo. He began to stop what he was doing and walked towards where he had agreed to meet Yiu Ruo.
He traveled a long distance and arrived in another area. It was a freezing place covered in ice and snow. This was the legendary Ice Region and also a wasteland. It was said that a Heavenly Venerate had fought here in ancient times, resulting in the permanent transformation of this area.
Usually, there weren’t many signs of life here because the environment was too harsh. There were miles of glaciers and also traces of Dao Principles left behind from the past in the region’s depths.
If ordinary life forms stayed in this region for a long time and weren’t powerful enough, accidents and calamities would inevitably occur. As time passed, there weren’t many people and life forms left in this region.
However, today, a figure appeared in this area that had been deserted since ancient times. Bai An strolled in this glacier and looked around silently. There were indeed not many living beings in this glacier. Even with Bai An’s Heavenly Venerate level of true spirit induction, he could not sense the living beings in this area. The living beings in this area had long disappeared.
However, he found some ruins left behind by ancient times in some places. There were some bones and shards of magical weapons. Of course, after a long time, all the magical weapons left behind in this area had long lost all their mystic. Even the shards had also lost their essence and were no longer useful.
However, based on the clues, this area must have had a glorious past and been a holy land of cultivation. However, it had declined and become like this for some unknown reasons.
‘Perhaps in ancient times, more than one battle between the Heavenly Venerates have turned this place into this state.’ Bai An’s calmly strolled through the area as this thought flashed through his mind.
He walked through the area, exploring the ruins and remains of various regions. He had agreed to meet Yiu Ruo a thousand years later back then. However, he had arrived a hundred years earlier. Hence, he would have to wait in this area for a long time until Yiu Rou arrived.
He was ready to explore the area since he had nothing to do during this period. There were stories about ancient Heavenly Venerate in the glaciers in the far north, but he didn’t know whether they were true. Bai An was also curious about this in the past. Now that he was here, he had enough time to find out.
It was also a good time for Chen Heng to take a good look and observe. Therefore, he continued to tour around and explore this glacier in the following period.
Shocking scenes kept appearing as he explored. There seemed to be many ruins buried in this glacier area. Besides the ruins on the ground, more historical ruins were buried under the glacier.
Bai An tried to dig, and he discovered several God corpses under the glacier in the end. Even though they had already fallen, there was still a vast divine aura on them. They were still extraordinary after so many years.
“At least they were corpses of Nascent Soul cultivators…” Bai An was surprised as he observed the God’s corpses he found and couldn’t help but think more.
In the following days, more and more God’s corpses appeared. At first, they were only at the Nascent Transformation Stage, but they became stronger and stronger. The corpses of Demigod and half-step celestial masters appeared one after another, which was a shocking situation.
Bai An even suspected that if he continued digging, he might even find the corpses of real Heavenly Venerate in the end. If that were the case, then the final result would be terrifying.
However, the deeper it was, the harder it would be to excavate the remains under this glacier. There was a strange invisible force in this area that pervaded this glacier. The deeper it was, the more powerful it would become and the more difficult it was to excavate.
After reaching the third layer, even Bai An found it very difficult to excavate the layer of ice under it. He often even had to use the power of the ancient sword to strengthen himself, enabling himself to dig with his power. However, even though he had found so many corpses, he had gained very little.
This was because many things on these corpses had already disappeared with time. The spirit stones and spirit herbs had lost their divinity. Even the divine weapons within them had lost their divinity due to the passage of time. They were all worthless, even if after being reforged. Although the corpses still possessed certain divinity, they mean nothing to Bai An.
In the end, these corpses were fed to the ancient sword in Bai An’s hand. Over an extended period, Bai An had already known a lot about the ancient sword’s power. He understood that the ancient sword could devour the corpses’ origin and thus strengthen its characteristics.
Therefore, he fed all the corpses to the ancient sword to strengthen the ancient sword’s power in the shortest amount of time, thereby indirectly strengthening his strength. Then, he did not continue excavating the glacier but left this place to tour around instead.
Over the decades, he had toured this glacier once and obtained some natural creations from it. Although the glacier was a wasteland with no people around, it had nurtured some unique natural creations.
For example, the mystic ice nurtured for a long time or some spiritual herbs that had particular requirements for the environment were discovered here. These things were all rare natural treasures if placed in the outside world. Bai An kept these natural creations, gaining a small harvest.
One day, another aura was emitted from this glacier. Bai An, who was touring, couldn’t help but stop and look at the other area. He sensed that vigorous Qi Blood was coming from afar. A familiar aura emerged, producing some kind of resonance on this glacier.
Bai An reacted immediately, “You’ve finally arrived.” Bai An sensed the familiar aura in the distance. He smiled and took a step forward, arriving in the distance.
A woman’s figure was standing in a flat area. Despite the snowy weather, she wore only a thin long white robe. She turned around and smiled at Bai An. It was none other than Yiu Ruo. She also kept her promise to Bai An and rushed over. The two of them officially met.
“It seems like you’ve been waiting here for a while.” You Ruo smiled and said softly, seeing Bai An again.
“I have nothing to do, so I came over in advance.” Bai An nodded, admitting frankly.
He looked at Yiu Ruo before him, and as he was about to say something, he sensed a unique aura. His expression couldn’t help but change.
“Your cultivation…” He looked at Yiu Ruo and felt a little uncertain.
He did not notice before this due to the distance between them. However, now that the two of them were so close to each other, he had noticed the abnormality on Yiu Ruo’s body.
Her current aura was many times stronger than before, same for her exuberant Qi Blood. Even though it was slightly weaker than the current Bai An, they were on the same level. Her spirit was even more powerful, faintly giving Bai An a unique and mystical feeling.
“Heavenly Venerate.” He took a deep breath and looked at Yiu Ruo. “You’ve become a Heavenly Venerate?”
“That’s right.” Facing Bai An’s gaze, You Ruo had a faint smile, then nodded and said, “I’ve also not been idle in the past thousand years and finally broke through by luck.”
“There’s no such thing as luck.” Bai An sighed in his heart.
To reach this level of Heavenly Venerate, one needed more than just luck. Without a solid foundation, an immaculate Dao determination and strength would never get to this level. There wouldn’t have been so many people who failed to advance and were blocked from this step in the past if it wasn’t so difficult. One could imagine Yiu Ruo’s talent, completing this step and reaching such a level under such circumstances.
‘As expected of a person with such a unique physique.’ Bai An sighed in his heart and quickly recovered.
After all, Yiu Ruo was a quasi-Heavenly Venerate a thousand years ago. It was comprehensible that she had used a thousand years to advance to the Heavenly Venerate domain and that unique physique.
Bai An accepted it quickly and continued, “What should we do next?”
“Wait.” Yiu Ruo said softly. She looked at the glacier before her and seemed to be deduced, “It’s not far from the opening of the sect of Immortal World. It should be in these few years. We don’t need to do anything during this period and just need to wait here quietly.”
“Is that so?” Bai An nodded and did not express any objections. They continued waiting, and this wait lasted for another ten years.
On a particular day ten years later, a radiant light suddenly illuminated the sky, startling the two in closed-door cultivation. A mysterious aura suddenly appeared, followed by an extraordinarily bright and beautiful light shrouding the entire sky.
“The extraterrestrial immortal light…” Bai An walked out from the closed-door cultivation ground and looked at the scene in the sky. He felt somewhat surprised.
Waves of stunning divine light illuminated the sky. It seemed to contain all kinds of Dao rhyme, making people feel dazzled and couldn’t help but be intoxicated by it.
