THE CULTIVATION OF BESIDE DEVIL CULTIVATOR
342: Stepping Too Far
Jiang Hao led the group to the Spirit Herb Garden. Cheng Chou and Jiang Hao gave the task to them.
Jiang Hao activated his divine ability and judged Gu Qin.
[Gu Qing: member of the Fallen Immortal Clan. While stealing the treasures from the Bright Moon Sect, he heard some secrets. Being chased by the Bright Moon Sect, he managed to escape the danger with a powerful treasure, but suffered heavy injuries, causing his cultivation to fall to the final stage of the Back to Void Realm. He adopted the pseudonym “Gu Qin” and became an inner sect disciple of the Heavenly Note Sect to recuperate. His goal of coming to the Spirit Potion Garden was to absorb the spirit herb essence so that he could heal and restore his cultivation. He has tried to use the enchantment technique on you several times without success, and is considering whether to take you out and replace you as the manager of the Spirit Potion Garden. ]
Jiang Hao walked to the small pavilion in the garden. He looked calm, but many things came to his mind.
'The final stage of Returning to the Void Realm?'
Jiang Hao did not even know what nature was. Now, an extremely powerful expert was beside him and was probably planning to kill him.
He's too strong. He can't stand against her. He didn't even get a chance to fight back, let alone escape.
There was no doubt that Gu Qin was actually Gu Qing.
'He had come to the Heavenly Note Sect to take refuge, but he was much stronger than expected. He had fallen to the final stage of Back to the Void Realm after suffering severe injuries, which meant that Liu and Xing were also extremely strong..
Gu Qing escaped the net. He was first captured by Xing, and then by Liu.
His escape was not because of his cultivation but because of the precious treasures he possessed.
Jiang Hao did not know what the treasure was, nor did he think about it. He was in danger and had no way of avoiding it.
'I need to calm him down first and give him a good environment for recovery…
I have to do something.'
Jiang Hao was unable to find a good solution. The power gap is too big.
After the assignment was given, Cheng Chou came to him.
“What tasks did you give to that junior sister?” Jiang Hao asked.
“ Junior Sister Gu said she wants to take care of some spirit herbs, so I agree,” Cheng Chou said.
Cheng Chou was happy to be able to help.
Jiang Hao glanced at him. His gaze seemed to penetrate into Cheng Chou's soul.
Cheng Chou shivered. She's confused.
Jiang Hao sighed. “For the next few days, you can take care of the Garden Spirit Potion Sect Outside, or you can accompany the spirit beast to deal with other problems.”
"All right." Cheng Chou was confused.
Although he did not understand the reason, he did not dare to ask.
After Cheng Chou left, Jiang Hao began to take care of the spirit herbs. Every now and then, he felt an attention-stealing gaze directed at him.
He knew it was Gu Qing.
He can't take it anymore.
Jiang Hao was worried that he would attack him.
It seemed like he did not understand the rules of the Heavenly Note Sect. Although he wanted to see her punished for this, he did not want to be the victim of her attack.
Jiang Hao left the Spirit Potion Garden and headed straight for the Law Enforcement Hall.
A year has passed. Liu Xingchen should have returned by now.
The Lawless Tower had captured a few people who were eyeing the Pearl of Heavenly Fate Crash. A pioneer like Liu Xingchen was no longer needed to hunt.
It was true, he found Liu Xingchen there.
“Young Brother Jiang, you have reached the pinnacle of the Foundation Establishment Realm!” Liu Xingchen was shocked. “It looks like the opportunity in the Corpse Realm is amazing.”
“It was just luck. An incredible genius appeared in the Corpse Realm,” Jiang Hao said.
Given Liu Xingchen's abilities and connections, he probably already knew about it.
Liu Xingchen's current state was a bit strange. He had no aura at all. Those three remaining souls might have already merged. Why didn't they launch a counterattack even after a year?
Did they fail?
Why did Liu Xingchen's aura become so pure now?
It's so different than before.
If he did not use his Daily Assessment ability, he would use it on Liu Xingchen
However, the chances of those three souls being devoured were low. Liu Xingchen's strength was the same as before.
In other words, his Primordial Spirit had yet to be replenished. Or maybe they had managed to possess Liu Xingchen, and this person was not Liu Xingchen anymore…
But it seems that it can't happen.
“Amazing genius? Looks like someday I need to take the time to sit down and talk to you about everything that happened there.” Liu Xingchen smiled. “By the way, what brings you here?”
He was more interested in Jiang Hao's involvement this time around.
Since he couldn't handle it himself, he had to seek help from the Law Enforcement Hall. Although Gu Qing was not a spy, he deserved to be captured by the Law Enforcement Hall.
As for how he knew, it didn't matter. After all, Liu Xingchen felt Jiang Hao was acting strangely.
"Oh?" This piqued Liu Xingchen's interest. She laughs. “Give me the list. I will investigate it in the next few days.”
The investigation took a while. The Law Enforcement Hall would not dare to recklessly arrest people. After all, they were not people who gave up easily.
After leaving the Law Enforcement Hall, Jiang Hao decided to make some talismans. The Thousand Miles Teleportation Talisman had been exhausted, and he needed to make it more.
However, it is easy to impose divine abilities during the process.
He also needed a new knife.
After looking around for a while, he chose a pitch-black sword with a strange pattern.
It was suitable for cultivators of the Golden Core Realm and was worth 3,600 spirit stones.
This was the most ordinary type of magical treasure.
The price was lower compared to the magic treasures of the Foundation Establishment which was better.
To Jiang Hao, this one was more durable.
Gold Core magic treasures at less than 4,000 spirit stones were rarely found throughout the market. Its scale is like the feathers of a phoenix and the horn of a unicorn.
Forging magical treasures was also advantageous.
He spent 4000 spirit stones to purchase talisman-making materials to create the Thousand Miles Teleportation Amulet.
Now, he had 45,000 spirit stones.
'I need to ask how many spirit stones are needed for a top grade spirit herb seed.'
Only by planting the seeds of a top grade spirit herb could he obtain bubbles. Other methods did not work or the success rate was very low.
Immediately, he walked out of the Snow Lotus Pavilion. The price ranged from 2,000 to 10,000 spirit stones.
Kinda expensive.
'2.000…'
With 40,000 spirit stones, he could purchase twenty spirit stones.
Even if he only sold fifteen, it was still good. He could sell spirit herbs after a few months and do the same thing again.
The only question was whether he could keep them safe.
There is another problem: high-grade seeds are rarely found.
“There are many problems, but for now, I have to solve the existing problems.”
Jiang Hao returned to his house and started making talismans. He soon discovered that his cultivation was lacking. 'No need to rush. I will wait two more days.’.
After which, Jiang Hao began to refine his cultivation and waited for several days to advance.
The next day, Jiang Hao went to his spirit herb garden to take care of it.
Half of the spirit herbs had already begun to wither. He discovered that his essence had been absorbed. Even if he revives it, it doesn't matter. They have lost their medicinal properties.
It may take decades for them to recover.
Yet the amount of spirit stones he spent to cultivate them had exceeded the value of spirit herbs. He threw away the spirit herbs without making a fuss.
He has to be patient.
Another day passed, and Jiang Hao finally found a bubble in his yard.
[Cultivation +1]
[Blood of Life +1]
As he headed to the Spirit Herb Garden, he saw a blue bubble amidst the many white bubbles.
[Blood of Life +1]
Jiang Hao was very pleased. He was finally able to advance to the next stage!
Although it was useless against late stage Return to Void Realm cultivators, it would allow him to teleport a Thousand Miles.
A talisman that might be useful.
However, on this day, half of his spirit herbs had withered.
Jiang Hao saw an ordinary non-cultivator kneeling in front of the herbs.
“Do something else and be careful,” he said.
He's feeling anxious..
