Chapter 119 Form–And–Will Master
The middle–aged man regarded William and was about to ask a question when the windows were rolled. down, and a voice filled with resentment shouted, “Look, that’s him! He’s the one who hurt me. He’s William Barrett!” It was Levi who spoke from the car.
Suddenly, the middle–aged man’s aura changed as he looked at William with a deadly stare and his back. hunched slightly.
“How impudent!” an ancient voice sounded behind him.
The middle–aged man immediately reined in his aura and opened the car door. An old man who looked to be around 60 or so got o of the car. His gray hair was slicked back and he wore an article of purple Theparean clothing.
After he got out of the car, he glanced over at William before asking politely, “Are you William Barrett, or should I say, Master Barrett?”
William answered, “That’s me.”
The old man then introduced himself. “I’m Hattie Yeager.”
William replied without much of a reaction, “Oh, it’s you, Master Yeager. Are you here to avenge your disciple, then?”
“No, not at all!” Hattie rushed to explain. “I’ve heard of what happened. Kylan was at fault for trying to harm you first, but you killed him. He deserved it and so did Levi. He wanted to avenge his senior and was defeated by you.”
Then, he paused before stating, “I came because I have something to ask you, Master Barrett.”
William then asked in return, “You know I’m here?”
Hattie shook his head. “No, I didn’t. I came looking for Brandon Crowell in hopes to meet you through him.
William was silent for a moment before saying, “Come in.”
So, Hattie followed William into the courtyard as his men stayed outside.
Kane had the servants set up a table in the courtyard for them to sit under the tree shade.
Hattie sighed softly. “I’ve lived for 105 years, yet my cultivation base is still stuck at the Divine Realm. I’ve only got a few more years to live, but I don’t want to give up. I want to try to break through to the Innate Realm.”
So, William asked, “Is that why you looked for me?”
Hattie nodded. “I tried to resolve the hidden energy you left inside of Levi but found it to be fascinating. It felt li
you were trying to tell me something. I realized what it was after pondering for two days. It was the theory of balancing the Yin and Yang.
William nodded. “Yes. I expected that you will see through that. You are indeed a master of the Divine Realm.

However, Hattie laughed bitterly. “I don’t deserve your praise, Master Barrett.”
To which, William answered, I’ve heard of you a long time ago. A Divine Realm Master over a hundred years old. I know for an elder like you to maintain in the Divine Realm, you must know how to care for your health very well. That was why I used a special technique when I fought with Levi. It was a mix of Yin and Yang.”
Hattie nodded quickly in agreement. “Yes. Indeed, I care for my health a lot.”
William looked at him. “Your physique is at its peak. I believe you spend most of your time practicing health cultivation, right?”
Hattie nodded once again. “You have a good eye, Master Barrett. I am practicing health cultivation, especially after the age of 60. I’ve not missed a day ever since.
William stated, “That is one of the reasons why you couldn’t break through to the Innate Realm. To do that, you must have a strong will and an unshakeable courage to move forward. You have to train the mind, but you spend most of your energy on training the body during your Spirit Cultivation stage. Even though your physique is great, you’re straying further and further away from the Innate Realm.”
Hattie looked remorseful. “So, that was it! I have a pretty good aptitude and worked hard too, but I just couldn’t break through. In the end, I didn’t have a strong enough will and desire to improve because I only wanted to live.”
William replied. “As a practitioner, one must be brave and diligent. You won’t obtain great achievements if you only want to live a long life.”
Hattie let out a long sigh. “I finally know the reason. Thank you for your teaching, Master!”
Then, William asked, “Do you want to give it a try?”
I
Hattie nodded. “Yes. Now that I know the problem, I want to try again. This time, if I don’t succeed, I’ll die trying.”
William replied, “That’s the spirit. If you reach the Innate Realm, you can live up to 120 years old. If you fail, you’ll only have a few more years to live anyways.”
Then, Hattie asked, “Master, the hidden energy you left in Levi, can you resolve it?”
William replied, “Bring him over.”
Levi was in the car as people carried him over and placed him on the ground. He looked like a ghost the past few days, which felt like hell to him. His knees were shattered, and his legs were barely intact.
Suddenly, Hattie scolded, “You brat! You took it upon yourself to try to kill Mr. Barrett!”
Levi gritted his teeth and stared at William. “Just let me die.
But, William sneered. “You don’t need to beg me to die.”
Out of the blue, Levi pulled out a dagger and aimed ith his neck.
Clang!
William waved his hand and the dagger dropped to the ground as he commented lightly, “Now, you‘

died once. I hope you can understand the world better.”
Then, he lightly tapped his fingers in the air and Levi immediately felt his body become lighter. The hidden energy was resolved.
Suddenly, Levi started crying. Before being beaten up by William, he was filled with pride. Now that both his legs were ruined, his life was as good as over!
Hattic sighed at the scene. He liked Levi a lot as a disciple, but never expected him to end up like this. His legs couldn’t recover fully even with surgery.
Then, William remarked. “You have to bear the consequences of your actions. Not only did you want to kill me that day, you even threatened to k
my family after losing to me. I let you live because of Hattie.
Repent your wrongdoings for the rest of your life.”
With a wave of Hattie’s hand. Levi was brought away. Then, he turned to bow at Williamn. Thank you for today, Mr. Barrett. I’ll take my leave now.”
Suddenly, William asked him. “Do you know Roy Nelson?”
Hattie’s expression changed a little. “You know my martial uncle?”
William replied, “No. I was just curious. Since he is your martial uncle, did he never teach you how to break through to the Innate Realm?”
That made Hattie fall into deep thought. After some time, he said. “Uncle Roy told me that I wouldn’t have huge problems if I maintain good health. He said I can only reach the Innate Realm if my body is well.”
William hummed in acknowledgment but didn’t say anything else. “Well, I hope you’ll succeed this time.”
Then, Hattie left with a thoughtful expression. He felt as if Roy was deliberately leading him astray!
After Hattie left, Kane let out a breath of relief and said, “Mr. Barrett, I thought Hattie was here to look for
trouble.”
William motioned him to sit and asked about Landry. He destroyed Landry when he met Levi last time.
Kane chuckled. “Landry’s still in the hospital. I took over a few of his territory in the meantime. Oh, right. I
met his boss too.”
William asked, “Oh? What did he say?”
“We came to an agreement. He will still get whatever profits he was entitled to. So, he promised to collaborate with me. All the territory that I took over will be mine.”
William laughed. “So, he won’t stop you even if you decide to drive Landry away?”
Kane replied calmly, “Not to that extent. I’ll still save one area for Landry. I tend to leave some breathing room when it comes to things like this. I’m not that merciless..
As he was speaking, Brandon came downstairs with Qurrounding him. He had officially entered the second stage of Spirit Cultivation–the Divine Will!
