Chapter 1094: A New Job At The Mine

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the Hidden Cloud Prefecture in the South, a middle-aged man in a white robe with a red flame pattern appeared.

“Is the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron coming this way?”

There was a mirror shining behind him.

“I don’t know where the cauldron ended up in the end.” He sighed and did not pursue the matter.

Since things had calmed down, he wanted a break for a while.

If they acted recklessly, they could easily endanger the whole world.

He did not come here to find the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron but to take a look at Shang An.

After a long time, in front of the Heavenly Note Sect, he raised his head and looked ahead but did not see anything. “This is it.”

When he turned his head, he saw a lake a little distance away.

He took a step forward and landed in front of the lake. He frowned.

“How terrifying! The influence of the Heavenly Extreme Pearl is still there. The aura of the Human Emperor is also affecting this place. It is no wonder Shang An wanted to become an immortal here. This is a place of trouble…”

After hesitating for a moment, he sat down cross-legged. He wanted to be here for a while.

As for the Heavenly Note Sect, they did not care too much.

The Heavenly Note Sect’s strength was decent, and it was considered very impressive for surviving the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl.

Perhaps there were powerful experts inside.

But that was not important at the moment.

After that, Jiang Hao returned to his daily routine.

Although he was a little anxious, he waited.

On that day, Senior Sister Lian Qin came looking for him.

She told him that there was a batch of superior-grade spirit herb seeds that needed to be planted.

Jiang Hao gladly accepted a total of 200 spirit herb seeds.

Fortunately, the other party had given him a lot of spirit stones. He only needed to spend ten thousand spirit stones on the seeds.

In four months, he would be able to obtain a batch of bubbles.

He wanted to see how much he could receive after ascending to immortality.

If he got many bubbles, that would be great. But if he received only a few, that would be truly difficult.

“Junior Brother, I was wrong last time. I was deceived. I promise there won’t be any problems like that next time,” said Miao Tinglian.

Jiang Hao did not pay much attention to it.

“Are you under some stress lately, Senior Sister?”

“I’m about to advance. I do feel stressed.” Miao Tinglian nodded.

Jiang Hao was speechless.

She was indeed about to advance.

He realized that she would advance in the next few days.

Her cultivation was solid, so she would not have any problems.

“Junior Brother…”

Just as Senior Sister Miao was about to speak, Jiang Hao suddenly got up.

Then, under her stunned gaze, he walked quickly toward Senior Brother Mu Qi.

“I told you that’s useless. Mu Qi is on my side!” Miao Tinglian said.

Jiang Hao ignored her and continued walking forward.

Just as Jiang Hao reached Mu Qi, Miao Tinglian did too. She grabbed Mu Qi’s arm. “He is my partner, not yours. He listens to me,” she said.

“Junior Brother Jiang, do you have any questions?” Mu Qi asked helplessly.

“Senior Sister Miao said she’s going to advance soon,” Jiang Hao said.

“Yes.” Mu Qi nodded.

“That is very important right now. Maybe you should stay by her side more,” said Jiang Hao. “I know you are quite busy in the mines. I could cover for you for a while.”

Miao Tinglian was surprised.

“I’ll go talk to the Master about it. It should be possible.” Mu Qi nodded.

“Alright. Thank you.” Jiang Hao nodded.

That was the most suitable reason he could think of. It was also good for Senior Sister Miao.

At least, he would not have to listen to Miao Tinglian nag him about finding a partner for a few days.

However, there was a small problem.

It would be good if he was allowed to return to his house at night.

He asked and found out that he could only come back three or four times a month.

That was because he had to guard the mine at night.

Jiang Hao sighed in his heart.

He could use the golden ring to return to his house, but…

Once he used the golden ring, he might not be able to use it again for a while. It would be difficult if he needed to escape immediately.

Although he did not think there would be any danger in the mine, emergencies could occur at any time.

But if he could not make it back occasionally, he would not be able to plant the spirit herb seeds he had just received.

He had to consider it carefully.

Jiang Hao sighed and did not think too much about it.

He would figure it out later.

He decided to dig for ores and bubbles first.

That evening, Jiang Hao received the news that his Master had agreed to his suggestion.

He could go to the mine starting tomorrow.

He would be covering for Mu Qi for six months.

The time was just enough for Jiang Hao to experiment.

The only pity was that he had rented out his nice pickaxe.

He did not know if he would offend Hong Yuye by doing this.

He had an excuse, but he did not know if she would listen.

But he had to do something.

The next day, Mu Qi led Jiang Hao to the mine before daybreak.

“Junior Brother, which job in the mine do you think is suitable for you?” Mu Qi asked.

‘Digging for ores?’ Jiang Hao wanted to say that.

“What do you think would be good, Senior Brother?”

“Supervising the miners is the simplest. Although it allows you to come into contact with ores and opportunities first-hand, it’s also the most likely area where danger lurks. Managing the miners is too cumbersome. You could also guard the surroundings, which gives you much more leisurely time. Guarding the treasures is also… not on the table. However, there’s one simple job.” Mu Qi looked at Jiang Hao and smiled.

“It’s to identify the treasures.”

“Identifying treasures?” Jiang Hao was surprised.

“Yes.” Mu Qi nodded.

“This is a mine, and there are many treasures below. Some are often dug out. Naturally, we need someone who knows how to identify them. Do you have any knowledge in that area, Junior Brother?”

“A little.” Jiang Hao was delighted. “Can I give it a try?”

“Sure. The treasures are stored in the warehouse, so it’s fairly safe. You can even take a walk around if you feel bored.”

“Thank you, Senior Brother,” Jiang Hao said gratefully.

He knew that Senior Brother Mu Qi had especially found this task for him because it was safer.

“It’s fine. Six months then. Even if you fall short of identifying some treasures, it’s not a big deal,” said Mu Qi.

Jiang Hao nodded.

Then, they arrived at a small market.

He thought he would see Wu Yuanwu, the mine manager.

He had never expected to see Bai Yi there instead.

He was a True Disciple of the Cliff of Broken Hearts.

“Senior Brother Bai?” Jiang Hao was surprised.

“Mu Qi has told me about your matter. In the end, one needs a good eye to identify treasure. I need you to do a little test,” said Bai Yi.

Jiang Hao was surprised. Senior Brother Mu Qi had already informed him of that.

He was certain that this was what he wanted to do.

Bai Yi took out three swords.

They were all slightly damaged and rusted.

“These three swords look the same, but they are very different. If you manage to pick the best two, you pass,” said Bai Yi.

Jiang Hao nodded.

Senior Brother Bai’s task did not sound that difficult, but it was not so simple either. If he did not do it right, he would not pass.

Jiang Hao glanced at the swords and picked the first and second ones.

“Is that your final guess?” Bai Yi asked.

Jiang Hao nodded.

“You pass. There are three people who are tasked with identifying the treasures. Which slot do you want?”

“The first one. But there’s something else I hope you can help me with, Senior Brother. Can these treasures be cleaned? I think that way one can tell more clearly which is the best.”
