Chapter 674: Blood Of Great Power

“Your insight into spirit herbs is quite unique, Junior Brother.” Qian Chen smiled as they walked.

Jiang Hao shook his head to tell him that it was just a coincidence. They walked for some time and discussed various aspects of growing spirit herbs. They mainly focused on the ones provided by Senior Brother Bu Ye, which had boosted Jiang Hao’s reputation.

The talk was normal, but Jiang Hao soon noticed that the discussion veered deeper into cultivation techniques.

These were not deep and profound insights, but rather, subtle details of handling spirit herbs to ensure their optimal growth. It was a knowledge that few people could acquire in their entire lifetime.

‘He’s quite knowledgeable about spirit herbs. Why is he only an inner sect disciple?’ Jiang Hao wondered.

Judging by Senior Brother Qian Chen’s abilities and knowledge, he shouldn’t be just an inner sect disciple, unless he was deliberately concealing his true strength.

Just when Jiang Hao thought the conversation would continue along the lines of spirit herbs, Qian Chen suddenly asked, “I heard that you practice the Blood

Wish Path?”

The question startled him. Fortunately, Jiang Hao remained calm.

“Senior Brother, you must be joking,” said Jiang Hao.

“I’m not,” Qian Chen said. Even when discussing this topic, he didn’t make Jiang Hao uncomfortable. “The entire sect, and even the other sects, believe that you practice the Blood Wish Path. Junior Brother, you must have noticed that many people are keeping their distance from you.”

Jiang Hao shook his head. “I really didn’t notice anything like that.”

He explained that he had drawn some attention because of his work in the Spirit Herb Garden, but people had quickly stopped paying attention to him after that.

Qian Chen nodded. “Then, Junior Brother, you should pay more attention. It’s not only a rumor within the sect but also outside. The major sects all believe that you practice the Blood Wish Path. You are in a difficult situation now.”

Jiang Hao lowered his head. “Thank you for letting me know, Senior Brother, but I’m currently being punished by the sect and cannot leave.”

Qian Chen nodded. “It’s better for you this way. It won’t be easy for them to find you.”

Jiang Hao agreed. After a while, the two parted ways.

“Junior Brother, take care, and thank you for clearing my doubts,” Qian Chen said before leaving on his sword.

His arrival and departure were both brisk, and he had been very open during their conversation. Their interaction had indeed felt pleasant.

Jiang Hao, however, couldn’t help but wonder whether Qian Chen had formed an opinion about him being a practitioner of the Blood Wish Path.

Several days later, in the middle of June, while tending his stall, Jiang Hao overheard some gossip. It was said that the sect had recently uncovered some infiltrators who were targeting the practitioners of the Blood Wish Path.

“I remember that one of these spies was full of resentment when he was caught. He said he wanted to find Jiang Hao from the Cliff of Broken Hearts and kill him. Just who is Jiang Hao? I’ve heard this name several times now. Is he truly accomplished in the Blood Wish Path?”

“I don’t know. I’ve only heard that he’s an inner sect disciple at the Cliff of Broken Heart, and he’s achieved quite a few merits within the sect.”

Jiang Hao found it strange. Why were people still targeting him?

Later, he learned that someone had discovered the spies some time ago. It was

Qian Chen who had discovered them. Qian Chen had taken care of the issue before coming over to visit him.

Jiang Hao was cautious. ‘He didn’t tell me but helped capture spies… That is a very strange way to win my favor.’

If Jiang Hao didn’t know the fact that Qian Chen was planning to sacrifice him in the Blood Pool, he would have thought Qian Chen was a decent senior.

Jiang Hao began his preparations for the upcoming mission to Devil’s Den. He was waiting for the mission to start while continuing with his daily life. He tended to the Spirit Herb Garden, crafted talismans, and provided guidance to Cheng Chou for his cultivation.

During this time, he visited the Lawless Tower and asked about the Blood Pool. Nangong Yue had mentioned it before. The Blood Pool was said to be located deep within Devil’s Den and was formed by the gathering of ancient powerful beings. It was filled with boundless power.

Nangong Yue also shared information on how to locate the Blood Pool, which wasn’t very complicated. However, it was challenging to gain access to the location.

Jiang Hao made his preparations for the mission to Devil’s Den. At the same time, the sect’s selection process was coming to an end, and the departure was scheduled for approximately one month later.

By mid-July, just three days before the mission to Devil’s Den, the sect began to gather its elite disciples who were going to the Blackheaven Sect. “Senior Brother, aren’t you going?” Xiao Li asked as she held the spirit beast.

“No. You take care,” Jiang Hao said.

Xiao Li, a True Disciple, was expected to go, and so was Chu Chuan.

Lin Zhi was busy in the mines, and Cheng Chou didn’t have the qualifications to participate in this trip.

“Senior Brother Jiang, I heard you can come with us if you want.” Chu Chuan was puzzled.

The longer he stayed at the Cliff of Broken Hearts, the more he found it strange. It seemed like Senior Brother Jiang Hao wasn’t interested in anything else.

Jiang Hao didn’t explain his situation to Chu Chuan. Instead, he said, “You remember to stick close to Xiao Li and the others.”

Although Chu Chuan was quite talented, he was still ordinary when compared to Xiao Li.

If they encountered danger, he might not be able to protect himself.

After all, the Grand Earth Emperor’s knowledge was extensive. Being a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator among powerful individuals was dangerous.

When they leave, the sect would be left with fewer branch masters and disciples.

‘I wonder if someone will take advantage of it.’

The Heavenly Note Sect has angered quite a few people, and this would indeed be a good opportunity for a surprise attack.

Perhaps the reason Senior Qian Chen felt that time was running out was because of this.

Once they made their move, the sect may be unable to respond immediately due to a lack of people. The attackers would be able to escape. Regardless, Jiang Hao had to act first.

“In three days, Devil’s Den will open. I’m almost prepared..”
