High-grade spirit herb seeds could be planted there, but not in large quantities.

When the quantity was small, the Cliff of Broken Hearts would incur losses in planting.

When the quantity was this large, no one would dare incur big losses, especially in cultivating spirit herbs, and the Cliff of Broken Hearts lacked experience in this sort of thing.

So even though they had a good collaboration before, he didn’t choose the Cliff of Broken Hearts.

For matters of this scale, he preferred better Spirit Herb Gardens.

“Yes, the collaboration has been established, and the spirit herbs have been sent to the Cliff of Broken Hearts’ Spirit Herb Garden,” said a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.

“How did Senior Brother Bu Ye’s people react?” Lian Daozhi asked.

“They seemed a bit reluctant, but there’s nothing they can do,” said the

Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator. “Does this mean that Senior

Brother Bu Ye’s chances of winning in the upcoming competition are reduced?”

Lian Daozhi frowned. “It’s not a particularly high-quality high-grade spirit herb, and there’s nothing that can’t be bought with enough spirit stones.

However, the chances of obtaining something exceptional are slim. I’m puzzled as to why he would do this. By the way, what do others think?”

The Foundation Establishment Realm thought for a moment. “Everyone is treating it like a joke. They all understand the situation with the Cliff of Broken Hearts’ Spirit Herb Garden. So, cooperating with the Cliff of Broken Hearts at this time seems like an attempt to shift the blame. Some say Senior Brother Bu Ye has been having issues with alchemy recently. If the competition fails, he can blame it on the quality of the spirit herbs.”

“Is that so?” Lian Daozhi lowered his head in thought.

He recalled Jiang Hao. The one who handled his spirit herbs before. The result was indeed surprising.

The Cliff of Broken Hearts’ Spirit Herb Garden had been stable under his management. Whether it was the people working there or other emergencies, everything was handled efficiently. He wouldn’t have paid much attention. But he heard that Jiang Hao had been guarding the mountain gate recently and probably wouldn’t participate in the garden.

“Who is in charge of the high-grade spirit herbs this time at the Cliff of Broken Hearts?”

“Jiang Hao from the Cliff of Broken Hearts. It’s said that Senior Brother Bu Ye specifically asked for him.”

Lian Daozhi’s brows slightly furrowed, and he felt a bit annoyed. He thought it would be Miao Tinglian.

She had been handling the matters in the garden, and he knew about her capabilities.

However, this made him rather unhappy. When compared to Jiang Hao, he actually preferred Miao Tinglian to be in charge.

“Let’s go and check.” Lian Daozhi led his group outside.

He wanted to see if anyone else was paying attention to this and hear their opinions.

It didn’t take long for them to see a crowd gathered close by.

The commotion grew louder.

“I bet that the spirit herbs from the Cliff of Broken Hearts will be of the poorest quality.”

Lian Daozhi was puzzled as he looked over.

“It’s a bet set up by Senior Brother Shang. He bet that Senior Brother Bu Ye would definitely receive inferior quality spirit herbs, ” whispered the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.

“Are many people betting on that?” Lian Daozhi asked.

“A lot,” the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator nodded. “Would you like to bet too, senior Brother?”

“Let’s wait for now.” Lian Daozhi soon spotted Shang Yi.

The two exchanged greetings.

“Junior Brother Lian, are you also interested in the news about the spirit herbs?” Shang Yi asked with a smile.

“Yes, after all, it concerns the resource allocation for the next few years.” Lian Daozhi nodded.

“Originally, Senior Brother Bu Ye had a high chance of winning this time, but it seems he made a mistake. He actually asked the Cliff of Broken Hearts’ Spirit Herb Garden to help cultivate the spirit herbs. The first place is now up for grabs.” Shang Yi laughed.

“How much do you know about Jiang Hao at the Cliff of Broken Hearts?” he asked.

“Not much, but there’s quite a bit of information about the Spirit Herb Garden. This person has good observation skills, acts decisively, and progresses in cultivation quickly. He’s not an ordinary individual. But when it comes to spirit herbs… forgive me for being straightforward… he’s just ordinary,” said Shang Yi truthfully.

“Just ordinary?” Lian Daozhi asked.

“Yes, if we’re talking about this person’s strength and power, I might not have a complete understanding of it, but their ability to cultivate spirit herbs is nothing remarkable. Compared to Miao Tinglian from the same branch, the difference is that of heaven and earth.”

Lian Daozhi nodded and thanked Shang Yi before taking his leave.

On the way back, he hesitated.

“Do you think Jiang Hao is that bad too?”

The Foundation Establishment Realm disciple hesitated. Then, he nodded. “Based on what we know so far, I think so.”

“Alright. I want to bet on him,” said Lian Daozhi. He saw that his junior was puzzled by his decision. “There’s nothing strange about it. If Senior Brother Bu Ye really made a mistake, we have a chance to win. Losing a few spirit stones is not a big deal. But if something unexpected happens and the Cliff of Broken Hearts is willing to take a loss for the sake of publicity, then we’ll still gain something.”

“What if the other side is just in the middle range, and we guessed wrong?” the Foundation establishment Realm disciple asked.

Lian Daozhi smiled and didn’t say anything.

There was no such thing as a risk-free profit. What they were doing now was attempting to increase their gains and minimize losses.

Doing nothing would feel like an even greater loss.

Around early May, Jiang Hao had been cultivating the high-grade spirit herbs for half a month, and everything seemed fine for now.

To avoid any accidents, he had sent the beast to guard and prevent ordinary people from approaching the herbs. He also made sure nothing in the surroundings interfered with their growth.

This batch of spirit herb seeds would determine whether he could advance quickly.

He didn’t know when he would have such an opportunity again.

After reaching the Return to Void Realm, the boost from high-grade spirit herbs would sharply decline.

Besides dealing with the spirit herbs, Jiang Hao was also keeping an eye on the sect’s grand competition.

It had been a month, and everything was going smoothly. People seemed hopeful.

During his time, many peculiar people had entered the Heavenly Note Sect.

The Fallen Immortal Clan seemed to be quite skilled at infiltrating sects.

It made sense. They could even infiltrate the Bright Moon Sect, so infiltrating the Heavenly Note Sect was a piece of cake for them.

This also meant that a major battle was about to erupt.

What concerned him most was that a few of those infiltrators seemed to glance at him.

It was a subtle gaze, but he noticed it.

The Fallen Immortal Clan might have set their sights on him.

If a battle broke out later, there was a good chance they might drag him along the way.

‘As expected, the more you do, the more troublesome people you encounter, and the greater the risks you face.’

Given the current circumstances, he could only make his own preparations.

Around mid-May, Jiang Hao left his post at the mountain gate and walked to the Spirit Herb Garden at night.

The moon was bright in the sky, and a gentle breeze swayed the leaves.

However, the moonlight retreated, and silence fell in an instant.

Suddenly, he felt uneasy.

Immediately after, a deafening roar echoed, and thunderclouds covered the sky. The grand force twisted and distorted.

Is the Fallen Immortal Clan finally attacking?’

Jiang Hao was shocked. He had never expected an attack to come so suddenly.

Many people realized something was terribly wrong.

Rumble!

The thunder descended and bombarded the Heavenly Note Sect’s grand formation.

At that moment, dozens of figures rushed into the sky.

Nangong Wenwu led the charge.

“You petty scums, you finally dare to show yourselves?! I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

A voice resonated across the land.

Jiang Hao didn’t know if the Blackheaven Sect was really prepared for this, or if they were just trying to scare the attackers.

However, soon the sky was covered by the shadow of the abyss. It made it difficult to perceive anything at all.

Jiang Hao decided to retreat. He headed to the Lawless Tower.

He wanted to evade the situation and hide for a while.

However, just as he rode his sword to fly away, a large hand appeared in the diqtnncp

There was a deafening sound, and it slapped him to the ground.

This strike didn’t intend to kill him, only injure him. It probably only had the strength of the late stage of the Golden Core Realm.

He could only pretend to be injured and fall on the ground. Otherwise, it would seem suspicious.

Immediately after, he began to unleash his divine ability, the Heavenly Cauldron.

He wanted to pull everyone inside.

He was also prepared to escape at any moment. The Thousand Miles Teleportation Talisman was ready.

“They’re here.”

In no time, three figures swooped toward him.

rlhvvo men and a woman.

The woman was in the late Primordial Spirit Realm. One of the men was at the early stage of the Soul Ascension Realm, and the other one was at the peak of the Soul Ascension Realm.

Jiang Hao was surprised. The fact that powerful cultivators were sent for him was unexpected. It was a bold move.

‘Aren’t there any weaklings among the Fallen Immortal Clan?’ “Friend, where are you headed?” asked the woman.

She was dressed in black, with her hair tied up in a simple knot.

“May I know who you are?” Jiang Hao made sure there was no one around and closed the Heavenly Cauldron.

However, he didn’t rush to attack. He wanted to know why they were targeting him.

“We are your distant relatives. We are entrusted by your parents to take you out to meet them. As they are nearing the end of their lives, we may be a bit forceful in our methods. We hope you won’t mind,” said the woman in black with a smile.

Jiang Hao was speechless..
