âThat is quite troublesome. Why donât we handle it ourselves?â asked the woman in black.
âI heard she has a treasure on her. Once someone attacks or detects her aura, the people backing her might become aware of it. If you are confident that you can do it⊠try not to be discovered.â The man chuckled.
âThen, Iâll let the person behind the ore handle it. Someone who dares to come out and sell ores here must not be weak. If someone captures his people and kills them, he might resort to⊠violent means,â said the woman in black.
âIf they donât succeed, we can just take their gains. Either way, we wonât lose.â The man chuckled again.
âSenior Brother, you have a point. Now, letâs see whether Yin Xueni believes us or not.â The woman in black smiled.
The two headed to where Yin Xueni was.
Whether the plan succeeded or not wasnât important to them. They still had plenty of time. If necessary, there was another method.
They could always spend spirit stones to hire someone to do the job. However, it was unnecessary to take direct action for now.
As for who to assign the taskâŠ
Werenât the Fallen Immortal Clan looking for someone?
That would work out quite well.
As for Jiang Hao, if he couldnât be used, then they could just forget him. His disappearance probably would do more harm than good.
This was a dangerous place for a Golden Core Realm cultivator. They would just chalk it up to unfortunate timing if something were to happen.
Soon, Yin Xueni received the news. She looked at the woman in black and frowned.
âWhere did you get this information?â
âFrom running errands for you. We might find him at the mines. Someone is selling ores at Moon Lake, so we can find out the location of the mine where heâs at. I also heard that nobody at the mining site has a cultivation realm higher than you,â said the woman in black.
âIs that so?â Yin Xueni looked at her. Her voice was icy. âWhat if youâre just trying to use me?â
âMy cultivation realm speaks for itself. If I was using you, you could easily kill me,â said the woman in black. âIf you were to kill me here right now, I donât think I can even defend myself.â
Boom!
Yin Xueni struck the woman in front of her. Then, she left.
She intended to seek out the person selling ores. She didnât know if the information was accurate, but she wanted to check for herself.
As for the woman in blackâŠ
âHow dare she think Iâm so naive?â
It was obvious she had a hidden agenda.
Why would she spare her?
Once Yin Xueni left, the woman in black walked out from the shadow. She sighed. âSheâs truly heartless.â
âLetâs wait until the ore-seller takes her to the mines. Weâll follow them discreetly,â the man said.
After entering the cave, Jiang Hao didnât think of anything else and continued mining.
He stopped after almost half a month because he received the final blue bubble.
[Cultivation +1]
He checked the interface again. [Vitality: 100/100 (can be cultivated)] [Cultivation: 100/100 (can be cultivated)]
âFinally, itâs timeâŠâ
Putting away his tools, Jiang Hao brought out the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl.
He strengthened the seal before sitting down and preparing for advancement.
This advancement might not be as quick as before.
A major boundary had to be breached, and the Corpse Realm was a dangerous place. He couldnât be sure what might happen during his advancement here. However, he had prepared a lot for this, so there shouldnât be anything he couldnât handle.
His body was suppressed by the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl. The pearl wouldnât erupt. He had made sure of that. However, he wasnât sure if this would have any effect on his cultivation.
With various precautions in place, he hesitated and took out some other divine items.
The Immortal Mountain Sea Shield and the Primordial Heavenly Blade were among them.
This made him feel much more at ease.
He closed his eyes and adjusted his state. He then began extracting his cultivation and lifeblood.
In an instant, Jiang Hao felt a surge of massive spiritual energy. His body started undergoing noticeable changes.
His strength increased rapidly.
Jiang Hao felt the changes and constantly circulated the Hong Meng Heart Sutra.
At that moment, his body was covered in purple energy and filled with the essence of Hong Meng.
The power of the sutra gradually manifested.
Jiang Hao emitted a mysterious aura.
His brows were tightly knit. This advancement wasnât as smooth as heâd hoped.
At that time, he maintained his true self and immersed himself completely.
However, for some reason, his thoughts began to wander.
Memories of his childhood, past experiences, Xiao Liâs life and death, Lin Zhiâs regrets, Chu Chuanâs efforts, and even the carefree nature of the spirit beast flashed through his mind.
Other than that, he also saw Cheng Chouâs ordinary life and the struggles of ordinary non-cultivators in the Spirit Herb Garden.
In just a few decades, he had seen a lot and had been involved in many things.
He could understand these emotions and could understand their pain.
These emotions held him back, and his advancement became unstable.
It was like a mental demon. Jiang Hao didnât know why his thoughts suddenly wandered.
However, his pursuit of the cultivation path had never changed, so he calmed himself down.
It wasnât about erasing his thoughts but facing them calmly.
He knew he had regrets and unresolved trauma.
But people ultimately had to face them. It was unavoidable.
Regardless of who they were, they had to confront these things.
In a daze, he heard the sound of waves.
Jiang Hao didnât know where it came from, but he couldnât act rashly.
He could only face it calmly.
He had to try to peacefully break through.
This advancement indeed didnât happen so quickly.
After three days of maintaining his state, everything finally calmed down, and the ascension proceeded smoothly once again.
This time, there wasnât much time. Jiang Hao seemed to have broken open a door, and his power underwent a drastic transformation.
A completely new force spread throughout his body.
Jiang Hao opened his eyes and found that he was still in the cave. The Earth Extreme Silent Pearl was glowing.
The Primordial Heavenly Blade and other things were also there.
At that moment, he sensed the power of the Immortal Ascension Platform.
He had successfully advanced to the early stage of the Immortal Ascension Platform.
Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief.
After that, he glanced at his interface. He had no extra cultivation points to refine his newly achieved realm.
He was helpless. He would have to spend another five days to refine his cultivation.
Five days later, Jiang Hao got up and checked his surroundings.
He vividly remembered hearing the sound of waves.
However, when he looked around, he didnât notice anything. His senses didnât pick up anything either.
âWas I almost pulled into the sea?â Jiang Hao couldnât be sure.
At that time, he couldnât afford any distractions, so he waited.
âWhat exactly happened?â
He didnât have an answer.
Then, he looked at the Nine Nether.
âWhat did you see?â
The Nine Nether thought for a moment. Then, it transformed into waves. Jiang Hao wondered if that meant that the sea had actually appeared.
âHow did it appear?â
This time, the Nine Nether couldnât answer.
Jiang Hao felt horrified. He hadnât noticed it.
Besides, with the Yin Yang Bracelet on, how did the waves enter the range of protection?
