It was still morning. A gentle sunlight illuminated the courtyard as Jiang Hao arrived at the gate.
A young man there. He looks more mature than his age.
Ming was already twenty-four years old. Jiang Hao first met her when she was only eighteen years old.
More than five years have passed since then. His cultivation and personality developed quite rapidly.
A True Disciple at the final stage of the Natural Establishment Foundation at the age of twenty-four was an incredible feat. It had given quite a good reputation to the Broken Heart Cliff.
In contrast to Jiang Hao, who supposedly reached the final stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm with the help of external treasures and assistance, Han
Ming has done it himself.
He made his name famous through countless battles.
“Sister Han, it's been a long time since I last saw you. I want to thank you for everything you do for me,” said Jiang Hao.
Han Ming had faced a challenge aimed at Jiang Hao. Jiang Hao intended to visit him to thank him, but he was stuck with curses and such.
Having just advanced to the final stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, it was only natural that he needed time to refine his cultivation. Looks like he's done fixing it.
“Senior Brother Jiang, I have also reached the final stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm like you,” Han Ming said. “Therefore, I came here today to challenge you.”
"A challenge?" Jiang Hao was not surprised. “Young Brother Han, do you want to challenge me now, or should we set the date?”
“Do you have time now?” Han Ming was shocked.
Actually, Han Ming wanted to choose another day. However, if Jiang Hao said he had time now, he could not retreat.
"I have time." Jiang Hao nodded.
“Then, Senior Brother Jiang, are you ready? Unlike you, I have faced challenges and fought many people. I have gained a lot of combat experience. You have to be careful. I'm not the same as before.”
“I will never underestimate you, Young Brother Han. You are amazing
aptitudes. ”
Soon, the two stood by the river.
One holds a sword while the other holds a sword.
As they faced each other, their auras interfered with the light breeze.
At this moment, Jiang Hao could see that Han Ming's aura was stable, but under that stability, there was an underlying wave. His power was ready to explode at any moment.
Sure enough, as Han Ming moved, his aura surged and exploded.
His sword unsheathed, and he dashed forward like lightning.
Jiang Hao swung his sword.
Clangs!
He wanted to fight Han Ming as an equal opponent. He's got it. Thus, he used the first form of the Heavenly Sword: The Moon Slayer.
He swung his sword again.
Han Ming could not help it.
On the third attack, Han Ming's sword flew into the air and stabbed itself into the ground.
Jiang Hao's sword rested on Han Ming's neck.
“Young Brother Han, I respect you. You become much stronger.” Jiang Hao pulled out his knife and sheathed it.
Han Ming looked at Jiang Hao then took his sword. “I'm just a little bit behind you. After I refine my cultivation, I will return to challenge you again. I hope you don't mind.”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Jiang Hao smiled. He would probably extend the fight to five strikes the next time around. That way, he could acknowledge Han Ming's effort and talent.
Defeating Han Ming constantly would not attract unwanted attention. There is always a chance for that.
Jiang Hao quickly faced the challenge that was supposed to happen today.
That place was not familiar to Jiang Hao. He wondered if it was Bai Ye's residence.
In the Hundred Bones Forest, he could already see so many people had gathered.
The challenge of winning the best student title has attracted a lot of attention.
“Young Brother Jiang, it's been a long time since I last saw you.” Liu Xingchen approached him.
' Senior Brother Liu, hello! Are you also here to watch the contest?”
Jiang Hao nodded. He noticed the faint deep red aura around Liu Xingchen. It was different from the residual aura of a true dragon soul and a mage.
'Has he found the rest of the three?'
He was in no hurry to find out. He wanted to watch the fight first.
That's not surprising. The mine is weird. It was an ancient battlefield. So, it is not surprising to think that the rest of the lost souls could have stayed there.
The other place was the Devil's Nest, but the mines were relatively safer.
A short while later, the two arrived outside the valley. Where it is inside. No one approached him.
A fight between two disciples in the late stages of the Primordial Spirit Realm would definitely have a huge impact. No one dared to approach the arena.
Jiang Hao scanned the surroundings. The most important thing right now was to find out where Bai Ye lived.
Hong Yuye had warned him, so he could not continue his curse. Knowing where the enemy lives is useful.
In two months, he might be able to advance to the final stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm. He would then come looking for Bai Ye.
However, if Bai Ye became one of the top ten disciples, things would become complicated.
“When the fight starts?” She asked.
“It's hard to say. There is no set time. It depends when Manlong arrives,” Liu Xingchen said.
Jiang Hao nodded.
“By the way, I heard that people from the Divine Corpse Sect visited our sect. It seems like they want to cooperate with us,” Liu Xingchen said.
“Divine Corpse Sect wants to cooperate with us?” Jiang Hao looked surprised.
Zhuang Yuzhen, one of their teachers, was still imprisoned in the Heavenly Note Sect, yet they wanted to cooperate!
It could mean they have other plans. What are they looking for in this sect?
“I heard this has something to do with the Corpse Natural Flower,” Liu Xingchen said.
Jiang Hao nodded. That makes sense.
The Corpse Natural Flower can open a special path into the unknown realm.
The people from the Divine Corpse Sect might be planning on entering that realm, so they wanted to work together to get the flowers back.
The Heavenly Note Sect could not refuse their proposal. After all, the strength of their sect was incredible. The fight will hurt everyone.
After all, as a member involved in Zhuang Yuzhen's interrogation, she should still be humble and avoid attracting their attention.
They waited a while. The crowd is getting bigger. He saw some familiar faces in the crowd.
Ning Xuan was also present in the audience.
At that moment, a tall man was standing on a rather high ground in the valley. He seemed to be at the final stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm.
Yet in Jiang Hao's eyes, his cultivation had been enhanced and forcibly consolidated through the use of several pills.
That person had a curse mark, and his aura fluctuated unexpectedly.
Jiang Hao knew as he looked at Bai Ye that the curse was working.
Bai Ye's cultivation was not only affected but also regressed to a certain extent.
This curse, which caused damage to oneself but inflicted greater harm on the enemy, was indeed effective. If not for Hong Yuye's interference, he himself would have been tormented by the curse. Bai Ye would most likely continue to suffer for a long time.
The explosion!
Suddenly, a body descended from the sky.
Manlong appeared in front of Bai Ye.
People cheered for him.
“Senior brother Manlong, hit him!”
“No one can match Senior Brother Manlong. I heard that Senior Brother Bai Ye is a cross-level cultivator. He can't win!”
Jiang Hao observed Manlong.
He noticed that his spiritual energy was enormous, and his aura continued to surge. He was practically glowing with vitality.
In comparison, Bai Ye looked rather insignificant..
