THE CULTIVATION OF BESIDE DEVIL CULTIVATOR
251: Do I Make You Wait?
'The Law Enforcement Agency was investigating Du Yong's death…'
In theory, it was impossible to find any evidence against him, so Jiang Hao had nothing to worry about. Otherwise, he would have been arrested.
The worst case scenario is that he will remain on their suspect list.
Jiang Hao did not mind. His freedom was restricted, but he was not as strong as the person from the heavenly Joy Pavilion.
If Jiang Hao was able to surpass that person in terms of strength and power, perhaps he could also resolve this matter with the Heavenly Saint Sect and the Eternal Sunset Sect.
Moreover, Zhuang Yuzhen could not escape. If he did, the Divine Corpse Sect would definitely regard Jiang Hao as an enemy.
If that happened, even the Heavenly Note Sect might not be able to stop them.
After a while, Jiang Hao arrived at the place they were supposed to meet for the mission. This mission involved ten people from the eight branches of the sect.
There were five men and five women in total. Three men and one woman had arrived by the time he reached the place.
Men are in the final stages of the Natural Establishment Foundation, and women are in the middle stages of the Natural Establishment Foundation.
Jiang Hao greeted them and stood to the side.
People were acting a little cold towards him. They do not admit it or answer it. Jiang Hao did not know why they were acting that way.
He silently observed the aura, spiritual energy, and behavior of people. He did that to determine if they were hiding their cultivation like him.
Three more people arrived. Two are not here yet.
“Why have two people from Ice Moon Valley not arrived yet?” said a man from Flowing Waterfall.
“Maybe something delayed them. We wait a little while longer,” said a woman from the Misty Cloud Peak.
The others remained silent.
The remaining two people still did not come.
“We can't wait anymore. Let's go,” said a weak man from the Candlelight Pill Pavilion.
“Let's wait a minute. We still have time,” said a woman from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion.
Jiang Hao did not say anything but waited with the others.
Most of these people were at the final stage of the Natural Establishment Foundation. Only one was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm. It was Wen Qi from Flowing Waterfall, who had spoken before.
Among the two men, there was no one in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Among the women, only one was on the middle stage and was from the Candlelight Pill Pavilion. It seems like he is also an alchemist.
Besides, Jiang Hao also noticed something. These people carried spiritual energy that other cultivators did not possess, and they were all young.
He used the Daily Valuation on one of them and discovered that they were all extremely talented disciples.
This is a team of geniuses. If he was not given a mission, Han Ming would accompany them. He was a True Disciple, unlike Jiang Hao.
'No wonder they were so cold to me. They're all incredibly talented..
After a while, the two women from the Ice Moon Valley finally arrived.
They were dressed in white, with their hair tied in simple bun. They walked up to the group while talking and laughing at each other.
Wen Qi was unhappy when she saw them so slowly and without regret. “Do you know that you are late?”
"So?" One of the women, who was tall and slender, looked at Wen Qi. “Did waiting a few minutes longer make you die? No one else, except you, seems to have a problem with it.”
"That's right! Did we ask you to wait for us?” said another woman. “If you have trouble waiting, you can continue the journey without us.” Wen Qi was very angry. An aura emerged from him.
“Just been at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm and you showed this much attitude?” said the tall lady from Ice Moon Valley. He stepped forward and released his aura. He was also at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
"Let's go!" Wen Qi was left behind with her flying sword.
Others followed. Jiang Hao was at the very back.
He doesn't care about these people. He knew they would never notice him because he was only at the final stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm in their eyes. Moreover, his talent was not as high as theirs. So, they of course ignored him.
However, the last two women who came were very irritable. The tall one was Ye Shan and the other one was named Wan Xi.
In fact, if Han Ming were to come, he would be the only True Disciple here.
However, judging from their aura and spirit, they were not on the same level as Han Ming.
Han Ming had gone through it all. He ventured out of the sect in search of adventure. He has faced life and death.
He even made an outstanding contribution during the fight with Azure Mountain.
Han Ming never stopped improving himself. He is full of determination and perseverance. He had experienced more than anyone in this sect.
In terms of their aura and spirit, they were not as refined and as powerful as Han Ming.
Jiang Hao realized how incredible Han Ming really was. He has exemplary talent and a lot of resources and opportunities, but he is still working to improve his abilities.
After a while, they reached Spirit Mountain.
The one who received it was a senior in the Golden Core Realm. He looked unsatisfied as he stared at the group that had just arrived.
He said nothing and told them to follow him.
'This is not good. A senior was waiting. Just because two people from the Ice Moon Valley were late, now the seniors consider us all to be disrespectful.’
When they reached the top of the mountain, his senior stood in front of the spirit field and faced them.
“There are three kinds of spirit herbs here. They are divided into ten regions. Your job is to cultivate this spirit herb with all your effort and make it grow. The duration of this mission is three months. You must be here every day for these three months. If not, you can head to Law Enforcement Hall on your grounds and accept your punishment. Now, go one by one and take this guide from me.”
Ye Shan from the Ice Moon Valley was the first to approach him. He received the manual.
Wen Qi was next. The others approached his seniors, one after another, and took copies of his manual.
Jiang Hao was the last to approach.
He approached his senior, received his manual, and offered him a spirit stone under the book.
“I'm sorry for making you wait, Senior Brother,” said Jiang Hao apologizing.
The senior in the Golden Core Realm was stunned for a moment, but he quietly accepted the spirit stone.
A small book was secretly handed over to Jiang Hao under the manual. Jiang Hao was very pleased. He thanked his senior.
“Now, your mission officially begins.” The senior then flew away with his flying sword.
A group of people began to search for their respective spirit fields.
The spirit field was divided into ten parts. So, everyone will be next to each other.
Jiang Hao found his portion right at the end. There were a total of nine spirit herbs there.
Three of them have grown tall and fertile. The other three were circular to each other and were about two meters long.
The last three were the most ordinary herbs. It was shaped like a white flower and was the size of one's palm.
'I've never seen this before.'
Jiang Hao checked the surroundings. He had not been in a hurry to look for any trace of Bai Ye.
He opened the manual to determine his task. He had to finish his task first before proceeding to another affair.
Jiang Hao studied the names of the three types of spirit herbs from books. It's all recorded in the manual.
But that's all there is. There is no other information.
While the others were still thinking about how to cultivate spirit herbs, Jiang Hao opened the small book that his senior had secretly given him.
After flipping through it, Jiang Hao understood its mission and also learned some of the characteristics of spirit herbs.
He needed to feed the herbs with spiritual energy, determine the influence of talent on certain herbs, and then decide whether it was better to plant important herbs together to increase the chances of success.
After looking at the little book, Jiang Hao could only think of Bai Ye. Bai Ye was indeed a genius at comprehending spirit herbs.
He could not allow Bai Ye to become one of the top ten disciples. If that happened, he could not take any action against her. He's gonna be more scary..
