“May I know your name, general?” Li Qingshan asked.
“Others call me General Butcher, some call me General Killgod, and some call me General Maniac. However, I like others to call me General Bail” General Bai chuckled and said.
Li Qingshan immediately paid his respects and said, “Greetings, General Bai!”
“No need for so many formalities. You’re not a soldier under my command, nor are you a member of the Celestial Court. We can converse as equals.” General Bai waved his hand, and a gust of wind helped Li Qingshan up. He easily suppressed Li Qingshan.
Li Qingshan was amazed at the power of General Bai.
However, upon closer thought, if he weren’t formidable, how could he become a general and acquire so many titles?
“What’s your name?” General Bai asked.
“Li Qingshan!” Li Qingshan replied.
“What’s the situation in the Human World now?” General Bai asked again.
“The situation in the Human World isn’t good.” Li Qingshan directly recounted the happenings in the Human World. There was no need to conceal anything as, with the appearance of the Gate of Immortality, more and more people ascended. The affairs of the Human World were impossible to hide.
General Bai listened to Li Qingshan’s account and remained calm. No one knew what he was thinking about. Finally, he said, “So many things have happened Human World in the past 20 ,ooo years. You are the first person in the past 20,000 years to open the Gate of Immortality by yourself. Unfortunately, you have come to the wrong place.”
“General Bai, when I arrived, I noticed the soldiers staring at me in surprise, wondering why someone would enter at this time. Yet, you say I’ve come to the wrong place. Why is that?” Li Qingshan asked in confusion. Was this Emperor’s Pass very dangerous?
Li Qingshan muttered in his heart, “Why does it feel like there’s going to be a war, a difficult and arduous battle?”
“If it was any other time, it wouldn’t be a big deal for you to come to the Emperor Pass. But unfortunately, now is not to right time. The Emperor’s Pass defensive battle is about to start. All the Emperor’s Passes will be sealed, not allowing anyone to leave. I’m afraid you won’t be able to leave the Emperor’s Pass for quite some Time.” General Bai shook his head and said.
“Emperor’s Pass defensive battle?” Li Qingshan frowned. As expected, a war was about to break out in this place.
In a great battle between Immortals, all the soldiers were Human Immortals, so the power must be very terrifying. For Li Qingshan, this was a daunting beginning.
If things went awry, he might end up dying in this Emperor’s Pass defensive battle.
“In the region governed by the Celestial Court, there’s a place on the border where it meets the Monster Clan, the Demon Clan, and the Hell. It’s also known as the Land of Four Battles. Several top forces have built cities here. We, the Celestial Court, have constructed eighty-one Emperor’s Pass. The place you’re in now is the 81st Emperor’s Pass!”
“When others attack, we will defend. This is called the Emperor’s Pass defensive battle.’
“However, in the past, it was only one or at most two factions attacking, so the pressure wasn’t significant.”
“But this time, the three factions have joined forces to attack the Emperor’s
Pass. This Emperor’s Pass defensive battle is going to be extremely difficult.
That’s why the teleportation formations are sealed and allow entry but not exit. I didn’t expect an accident like you to happen.” General Bai pointed at Li Qingshan and said.
Li Qingshan’s face darkened immediately.
His journey to the Immortal Plane could be considered the beginning of the hellish difficulty.
General Bai burst into hearty laughter when he saw Li Qingshan’s face darken. He wasn’t surprised at all. Anyone who heard this news would have their face darkened.
“I’ll give you 1000 crystals later. Now, you have to make a choice. Do you want to join the Celestial Court or become a wandering cultivator, exploring on your own?” General Bai asked immediately after he finished laughing.
Li Qingshan gave General Bai a resentful look and said, “Do I have a choice?”
“Yes, if you don’t join the Celestial Court, I will arrange a house for you. You can stay here and leave after the Emperor’s Pass defensive battle is over,” General Bai said.
“Provided that I’m still alive by then,” Li Qingshan muttered in his heart.
“General Bai, when I arrived, I heard from the soldiers that there will be military merits for participating in the defensive battle of the Emperor’s Pass.” Li Qingshan asked.
“Of course. Once the defensive battle of the Emperor’s Pass starts, as long as you kill the enemies bravely, the rewards of the Celestial Court are very generous. You will be rewarded with 1,000 Immortal Crystals for killing one enemy, and 2,000 Immortal Crystals for killing two enemies. There is no upper limit,” General Bai said.
“And if you win the battle you participated in, you will be promoted. This is how I became a general.” General Bai pointed at himself and said.
Li Qingshan asked seriously. “When will the Emperor’s Pass defensive battle start?”
“I don’t know about that, because we are the defenders. The initiative is in their hands. When to fight is up to them, not us.” General Bai shook his head.
“General Bai, if I join the Celestial Court, what rewards can I expect?” Li Qingshan sought benefits for himself.
Given the current situation, he had to strengthen himself as much as possible.
“If you join the Celestial Court, I won’t arrange any other tasks for you. You can serve as my personal guard and live in this courtyard. As a newcomer, if you have any questions, you can come to me. I’ll clarify them for you. Also, you can read the books in my mansion as you wish, but my study is off-limits without my permission.” General Bai slapped the table and said to Li Qingshan.
General Bai highly valued Li Qingshan, and Li Qingshan was very satisfied with what he offered.
“I pay my respects to the general!” Li Qingshan stood up and lowered his head slightly, accepting the arrangement.
General Bai nodded in satisfaction and said, “You’ve just entered the Immortal Plane. I won’t arrange anything else for you right now. First, convert the spiritual Qi in your body into Immortal Energy. Then, familiarize yourself with the knowledge of the Immortal Plane and enhance your strength. Perhaps at some point, these improvements in cultivation might save your life.” General Bai patted Li Qingshan’s shoulder and said..
