Reversing the Milky Way

Chapter 363 Unexpected Incident

This pill was actually given to Bai Chuanhai by Yue Qingwu to restore his cultivation. However, Bai Chuanhai did not take it after returning. Instead, he proposed to use the spiritual veins to restore his realm and to take the opportunity to comprehend the soul veins to break through to the late stage of the Opening Meridian Realm. Therefore, he put the pills into the Bai family's treasure vault.

Upon receiving this news, Bai Zhirong immediately went to her father to ask for the medicine, but was ruthlessly refused. Later, having obtained the Bai family seal, she secretly went to the Bai family's treasury and took the medicine.

Bai Zhirong: "This elixir was indeed brought back by your uncle, but he did not take it himself. Instead, he donated it to the family so that those who needed it more could use it."

Bai Tianhao: "So that's how it is. You're truly worthy of being my uncle."

As he spoke, he wore a mocking expression.

Bai Zhirong: "Besides, he is still the most talented person in the Bai family. Although we don't know why his cultivation level has regressed, it is only a fifth-grade pill. For him, it can only restore his cultivation level at most. It is a pity to use it."

Bai Tianhao: "Mother, don't worry! With such a spiritual pill, I will definitely be able to break through to the peak of the Qi Condensation Realm in one fell swoop!"

Bai Zhirong: "That's right, this is my good eldest son. There are still three days until the Xue family's Tonghai Realm banquet. You must break through your realm as soon as possible in these few days so that you can shine at the Xue family's banquet! To be on the safe side, you should break through tonight. Your mother will personally protect you."

That evening, Bai Cheng finished replenishing the remaining spirit-storing beads in his room. Upon arriving in the courtyard, he found Lü Liang and Lü Qiuyue cultivating there. Summer was approaching, and the temperature was gradually warming up.

Bai Cheng leaned forward to check and found that Lü Liang's cultivation level had reached the second level of Spirit Induction, and Lü Qiuyue had also advanced to the fourth level of Spirit Induction.

'Indeed, although the speed wasn't particularly fast, it was still quite helpful for cultivation in such a place rich in spiritual energy.'

Bai Cheng arrived at the shop's front desk. The shop was already closed for the night. After placing the Spirit Storage Pearl in a prominent position, he sat down at a nearby table and took out the talisman illustrations he had copied from the academy.

Mi Hua: "Oh, are you trying to draw a talisman?"

Mi Hua walked over from the side.

Bai Cheng: "That's right, Bu Qian is leaving next month, and I'm wondering if I should pay him to stay."

Mi Hua: "He won't agree to that. He's hardly ever been in the shop since I arrived."

Bai Cheng: "He came here to help me, but now the shop's sales direction has changed, and I'm wondering if we should continue to develop in the direction of focusing on talismans."

After hearing this, Mi Hua leaned back in her chair with an indifferent expression, staring blankly ahead, as if recalling some past events.

Mi Hua: "The reason cultivators sell goods is simply because they don't have enough resources for cultivation. If they had plenty of money, who would need to sell items? As for you, why did you buy this property? Weren't you doing just fine staying in Baijia?"

Upon hearing this, he was momentarily stunned. This was related to his plan, as he didn't know when he would be able to stand on his own, and there were many things that he didn't want outsiders to see.

Bai Cheng thought about it carefully. To be honest, it might be related to his personality. After all, he had been living alone since graduation. Although it was a mundane life, he didn't feel that it was bad.

It wasn't until he joined the Bai family in this world that he felt his life become noisy, but for some reason, he didn't feel as relaxed as when he was alone.

Bai Cheng's silence prevented Mi Hua from pressing him further, after all, everyone has secrets in their heart.

Bai Cheng has now gained a lot of points in the Trial Tower. If he wants to focus on cultivation, he thinks he should first take care of his business.

After a moment of silence, Bai Cheng suddenly spoke.

Bai Cheng: "I wonder if Senior Mi has any special skills?"

Mi Hua: "You'd better not count on me. I'm different from you. Our sect is a legitimate second-class cultivation sect. Everyone in the sect joins only for cultivation. Once you join, you can't return to your hometown for decades or even centuries. Furthermore, our sect rules are strict, and we don't allow you to get entangled with worldly people, especially in matters of world dynasties."

Mi Hua emphasized the last few words, and Bai Cheng could tell from them that he had a strong aversion to the system in Huoyun Kingdom.

Mi Hua: "Furthermore, we are the Spirit Beast Sect. Most of our sect's cultivation techniques are related to spirit beasts or demon beasts, as are our talismans and alchemy. Basically, we are very different from what you have here."

Bai Cheng: "So that's how it is."

Mi Hua: "However, I do know a little bit about these basic talismans. I'll help out if needed."

Upon hearing this, Bai Cheng slowly raised his hand.

Bai Cheng: "No need. I've thought about it a lot and decided to base the inscription of the talisman on my own spiritual power characteristics."

Mi Hua: "Really? Then I'd really like to see how effective the talisman you've inscribed will be."

At this point, Mi Hua suddenly remembered something.

Mi Hua: "By the way, if you want to quickly learn how to inscribe talismans, I do know a place."

Bai Cheng: "What place? Is it even more powerful than the Fourth Elder of the White House Academy?"

Mi Hua: "I have heard of Mo Rui's name. Although his talisman skills are among the best in Baifeng City, that is only on the surface."

Upon hearing this, Bai Cheng felt a surge of surprise.

Bai Cheng: "Could it be that there's some other story behind White Maple City?"

Mi Hua: "Hehe, the so-called inscription of talismans is actually an understanding and mastery of formations and array patterns. There happens to be such a person in White Maple City. As far as I know, her mastery of formations and talismans is at the level of a first-class sect!"

Bai Cheng: "Huh? Who is it!?"

Miwa: "I'll tell you, it's..."

Just as Mi Hua was about to continue speaking, she heard a loud rumbling sound coming from not far outside the door. Along with this series of booming sounds that resounded through the sky, the two of them also felt the fluctuations of spiritual energy coming from the air.

"Boom! Boom!"

The two immediately went to the courtyard, where Lü Liang and Lü Qiuyue, who were cultivating, were also awakened.

Lü Liang: "What happened?!"

Looking out at the distant sky, against the backdrop of the night, various colors of spiritual energy continuously shone brightly in the sky.

Bai Cheng: "How is this possible? Someone actually dared to start a fight on the territory of the City Lord's Mansion?!"

Mi Hua: "Oh, this is going to be interesting."

Bai Cheng gave instructions to Lü Liang and Lü Qiuyue.

Bai Cheng: "You all go back inside and don't come out. Mi Hua and I will go out and take a look."

Lü Qiuyue: "Yes, you need to be careful."

Bai Cheng and Mi Hua exchanged a glance, then immediately took to the air on their swords and headed towards the place where the commotion had occurred not far away.

In the distance, a man in black was running rapidly through the air with another person in tow.

The pursuers came from various backgrounds, including cultivators from the Overlord Blade Sect and the Xuanwu Hall, but the majority were from the Arrow Shadow Sect.

Dong Gu: "Don't force me!"

The man in black revealed his face; it was Dong Gu.

Zhou Yunshen: "You can't escape!"

Zhou Yunshen, the sect leader of Arrow Shadow Sect, was hot on his heels, holding a light blue longbow. As the bowstring tightened, the spiritual power around him instantly condensed into an incredibly powerful arrow. The arrow was surrounded by a ghostly blue light and exuded a terrifying aura that made people's hearts tremble.

The next moment, the arrow left the bowstring and shot out like a blue lightning bolt splitting into hundreds of arrows in the night sky, carrying a sharp whistling sound as it swept towards Dong Gu in an instant.

Dong Gu: "Young Master, quickly step back behind me!"

The other man in black was Si Nanchen.

Dong Gu instantly raised a black shield, and the whistling arrows crashed into it in an instant.

The arrows came with tremendous force, each carrying terrifying power. When they struck the black shield, they produced a deafening roar, and ripples spread across the surface of the shield, as if it were doing its best to resist the powerful impact.

Some arrows grazed the edges of the shields and flew towards the ground behind the two men, raising clouds of dust wherever they went. The power of each arrow was astonishing.

They slammed into the buildings on the ground, the immense impact spreading wildly outwards from the arrowhead. Buildings within a hundred meters shattered under the powerful impact, and every inch of the land they covered trembled violently.

Bai Cheng and Mi Hua also arrived within a kilometer of the man in black. The shockwaves from the distant explosions continued to glide across their faces.

Mi Hua: "Could that move just now be the Arrow Shadow Sect's core technique, the Cloud Chasing Arrow Technique? I never imagined it would be so powerful?"

Bai Cheng spoke up with a serious expression.

Bai Cheng: "You actually know a lot about this?!"

Mi Hua: "That's right. Although Arrow Shadow Sect is just a third-rate sect that doesn't deserve any recognition, it can still be seen in every sect competition."

To Bai Cheng, the attack just now felt like hundreds of missiles instantly bombarding the area. Fortunately, most of the residents had already moved away, and the properties that were hit were mostly vacant.

Bai Cheng looked again and saw a person in the distance suddenly bursting with golden spiritual light. It was Wu Daoling, the hall master of Xuanwu Hall. He was using a technique called Zhenyue Lingjia, a domineering technique that could only be practiced by those who had reached the Zhenyue realm in the Body Tempering stage.

As soon as the technique was unleashed, Wu Daoling was enveloped in a golden inscription. These inscriptions continued to converge, forming a huge golden fist shadow in mid-air that enveloped him, measuring hundreds of meters in size.

Wu Daoling: "Take this!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the huge golden fist shadow, along with Wu Daoling, crashed into the black shield. Although Wu Daoling's realm was only at the mid-stage of the Meridian Opening Realm, his Body Tempering Realm had already reached the Earth-Shaking Realm. This strike had the force of 1,500 tons.

The next instant, the golden fist shadows slammed into the shield, and the domineering aura caused the surrounding air to emit a sharp explosion. Although the two were fighting in the sky hundreds of meters above the ground, the ground was still cracked by the pressure, and debris flew everywhere.

At that moment, it seemed as if only this one loud bang remained in the world, making people's eardrums ache. Everything in sight was distorted by this power. The energy fluctuations spread outwards like a tide, breaking trees and turning houses into sand and gravel, leaving a scene of utter devastation.

The man in black in the sky was slammed into the ground by the powerful blow. Although he was protected by the Heavenly Netherworld Shield, he still felt overwhelmed by the huge impact at such close range. Moreover, he had to spare some energy to protect Si Nanchen during the attack.

Bai Cheng and Mi Hua, who were far away, were stunned by the sound. They felt numbness in their internal organs, and the shockwave blasted them hundreds of meters away.

Because he couldn't avoid it in time, Bai Cheng's body couldn't adjust, and he fell to the ground in an arc.

"Bai Cheng!"

Upon seeing this, Mi Hua immediately flew down. Bai Cheng, who had just crashed to the ground, felt a jolt in his brain. After getting up in a disheveled state, he immediately spoke to Mi Hua, who had flown down.

Bai Cheng: "Let's get some distance away quickly, we're too close!"

After saying that, the two of them took off on their swords again and retreated another two miles.

From this position, Bai Cheng could barely see any figures, and his divine sense was completely unable to detect them.

Mi Hua's divine sense can detect objects within a three-mile radius, and he was able to detect them precisely at this location.

Bai Cheng immediately took out the high-tech weapon, put on his glasses despite Mi Hua's surprised look, and then controlled the black ball to fly quickly into the air.

When he looked in the direction of the black man again, the figures of those people appeared in his glasses.

Mi Hua: "Hmm? Bai Cheng? What is this?"

Bai Cheng: "This is a product of technology; you wouldn't understand even if I explained it to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Cheng scanned the identities of the two men in black who had come into view.

Bai Cheng's heart tightened when he saw the black man's face.

Bai Cheng: "That's... Si Nanchen?"

Subsequently, Bai Cheng discovered that, apart from the few people present, the area within several kilometers of them was surrounded by numerous cultivators, numbering in the thousands.

Not only that, he even saw Bai Zhentian leading a group of city guards among them.

Bai Cheng: "What exactly is going on?"

On the battlefield, Dong Gu looked astonished; the attack just now had indeed caused him considerable impact damage.

Dong Gu: "What a magnificent Mountain-Suppressing Armor Technique! What earth-shaking power!"

After saying that, he turned to look at Si Nanchen.

Dong Gu: "Young Master, three of the six major sects have arrived today! This shows that they have been planning this for a long time."

After saying that, he handed a compass to Si Nanchen.

Dong Gu: "This is an underground compass. They have already laid a net around it. I have sent a telepathic message to the Qiu family head in Sinan, and he will send someone to meet us outside the formation."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Xu Yuanshan's voice came from not far away.

Xu Yuanshan: "Haha! Master Wu, what a great offensive!"

After saying that, he cast a fiery red spiritual energy halo into the air, from which six fiery array flags flew out.

Xu Yuanshan: "Heavenly Flame Formation! Activate!"

As his voice fell, disciples of the Overlord Blade Sect, who had been waiting for a long time, surged around each array flag. They poured their spiritual power into the flags, and the six array flags formed a line on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, a fiery red magic array soared into the sky, enveloping the sect leaders of the three major sects and the two men in black within the array.

Xu Yuanshan: "Although you are a spy for the Si Nan family, if you abandon the darkness and embrace the light, we will still accept you. As long as you hand over the array stone, we will not make things difficult for you!"

Upon hearing this, Dong Gu immediately glanced at Si Nanchen beside him and then transmitted his voice.

Dong Gu: "Young master, you should take advantage of the chaos and leave quickly. This earth-penetrating compass is not afraid of the formation's blockade!"

Xu Yuanshan: "Uncle Dong, what about you?"

Dong Gu: "Besides those few, there are others here. I'm afraid I won't be able to get away with this today! Remember! If I don't make it back today, the Ancestor will definitely avenge me after he succeeds!"

Xu Yuanshan: "Uncle Dong, rest assured, everyone present today will be accountable if the Si Nan family returns in the future!"

In the distance, Bai Cheng pondered the scene of Si Nanchen and Dong Gu chatting, when suddenly he heard Mi Hua's voice beside him.

Mi Hua: "What's going on with the Tyrant Blade Sect?! They won't even let us see such an intense scene?! This formation blocks the detection of divine sense; I can't see what's happening inside!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Cheng merely glanced at him before turning his gaze forward again. He was currently hidden in an alley three kilometers away from the scene. Despite the numerous walls and buildings blocking his way, the scene before him could still be seen through countless obstacles and even formations under the scanning of the black sphere.

'Strange? Since Bai Zhentian was present and didn't stop it, it means he tacitly approved of the interception operation. But what was his purpose?'

Just as Bai Cheng was pondering this, another person suddenly appeared on his screen.

Bai Cheng: "Huh? Who is he?!"
