“When we meet again, you’ll be a legend. To think you have encountered two immortal opportunities but couldn’t grasp them.”
“Senior, do you know anything about the Great Thousand God Sect?” Bi Zhu asked.
“I have heard some things. They’re a group of people with intellect but weak in strength,” Gu Changsheng said.
“I heard that they are going to do something big soon. Do you know anything about it, Senior?” Bi Zhu asked.
Gu Changsheng thought for a moment. “If The End of All Things is extreme, then the people of the Great Thousand God Sect are outright lunatics. They may not be strong, but they are quite bold. They are different from those who are not afraid of death. They have imagination and aren’t afraid to take a leap of faith. They might not be as dangerous as The End of All Things in their ideologies, but they can do crazy things.”
“Do they cooperate with The End of All Things?” asked Bi Zhu.
“Possibly,” Gu Changsheng said after some thought. “The person at the core of The End of All Things is connected to the Great Thousand God Sect. People tried to kill them but couldn’t. It’s difficult for that person to come back. But you would do better not to go looking for them. If you come in contact with them, they could taint you with their spirit, and you’d have no choice but to become a part of The End of All Things.”
“I won’t be able to withstand it?” Bi Zhu was surprised.
“Who knows?” Gu Changsheng did not explain any further.
Meanwhile, a woman in a white robe stood at a mountain peak. The breeze rustled her hair. She then left from there demurely.
There were many people following behind her.
Everyone was respectful to her.
A stone tablet flickered on the woman’s palm. It was engraved with glittering things like stars.
Then, the starlight aligned itself and pointed toward the South.
“South? Where is that place?” asked Hu Yuexian as she looked into the distance.
“That’s the direction of the Heavenly Note Sect,” said a middle-aged man respectfully.
“Where did Zhuang Dongyun go missing?” Hu Yuexian asked.
“I heard that she was last seen in the Heavenly Note Sect. The lantern bearer is there too,” said the middle-aged man immediately.
“Lantern bearer?” Hu Yuexian frowned. “Is he there willingly, or is the Heavenly Note Sect holding him captive?”:
“Both could be true,” the middle-aged man said.
“Alright.” Hu Yuexian nodded. “Don’t alarm them. Do what needs to be done and then go take a look. Is there anything special about the Heavenly Note Sect? Someone needs our help, so we need to find out all we can.”
“A member of The End of All Things said that there might be an ancient battlefield buried under the mine of the Heavenly Note Sect. There might be a rare treasure there. The Blackheaven Sect, the Thunder Fire Sect, the Sunset Immortals Sect, and others did lay siege to it,” said the middle-aged man. “The person who gave us this information says he is a disciple of the Heavenly Note Sect. He’s under our control. So, he can’t pass on the message to anyone else. But The End of All Things has people everywhere. We must be careful. It’s just that…”
“The core person of The End of All Things is a central figure in all this,” said the middle-aged man. “If he makes an appearance, it’ll be extremely troublesome for us. Everyone wants to live. But without that person, our plan might not proceed smoothly.”
“Then do we still have a future?” Hu Yuexian asked.
The middle-aged man did not speak.
“Let’s go.” Hu Yuexian put away the stone tablet and walked forward. “Let’s head to the mine. Set your doubts aside. I don’t want anything to go wrong here. It doesn’t matter how strong or weak the Heavenly Note Sect is. Just give it your all like you would if you were dealing with an immortal sect.”
“Yes.” Everyone behind lowered their heads and nodded respectfully.
“Also, tell Feng Hua to behave herself. She has been quite reckless lately. I heard she sort of got entangled with Smiling San Sheng and one of her avatars got caught,” said Hu Yuexian.
“I haven’t been able to contact her. I’m worried that she might mess everything up and disrupt our plan,” said the middle-aged man.
Hu Yuexian was surprised, but then she smiled. “That’s alright. She is slightly crazy, to be honest. Let’s go.”
After that, the group quickly left.
Around early May, Jiang Hao left the mine.
He had put in a request to return to his house for the day.
He wanted to collect bubbles.
He headed straight to the Spirit Herb Garden.
The sky had just brightened when some ordinary non-cultivators arrived one after another.
“Immortal Elder,” they said in greeting when they saw him.
Jiang Hao nodded.
Some of the newcomers stood rooted to the ground in shock.
They had not known he would be here today. They lowered their heads apologetically for having met his eyes.
However, when Jiang Hao nodded to acknowledge them, they felt glad.
He always made them feel like they were not just lowly workers in his eyes. They did not show it, though.
They knew Jiang Hao did not like being praised and complimented for it.
Jiang Hao did not really care what people thought about him.
He knew it was impossible to please everyone.
They would only be restrained.
When he arrived at the Spirit Herb Garden, he saw a pile of blue bubbles.
He counted fifteen in total.
‘It’s not even one-tenth of what it’s supposed to be. It looks like it won’t be easy to advance in the future.’
He had never expected that the yield from the high-grade spirit herbs would be so less.
Jiang Hao put away the bubbles and tended to the herbs before he left.
He wanted to stay in his courtyard, but he could not.
He watered the plants and went back to the mine.
He started digging for ores.
“Did you not visit the mine in the morning, Senior Brother?” asked a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.
“I had nothing to do,” Jiang Hao said and started digging.
The other party did not say much and only informed him about the recent developments in the mine.
“I heard that many people came to the mine. They were caught from outside the sect. They weren’t even sent to the Lawless Tower.”
Jiang Hao listened but did not pay much attention to it.
This kind of thing happened quite often, so there was nothing to worry about.
Even if there was a problem, it had nothing to do with him.
Apart from some people in the mines, he had not met many people there.
He would be able to avoid the danger if he stayed out of the way.
After that, he could mine properly.
He did not find any bubbles today.
A week later, Jiang Hao looked at his interface.
[Lifeblood: 100/100 (can be cultivated)]
[Cultivation: 100/100 (can be cultivated)]
The points were finally full.
Jiang Hao heaved a sigh of relief.
After returning to the attic, he went upstairs first and informed the others there that he would need to go into seclusion for the next two days to refine his cultivation.
The two seniors were very polite and said that they would deal with anything that came up.
They told him to focus on his cultivation.
Jiang Hao activated the formation and attempted to advance.
This was the first time he had advanced after ascending to the Immortal Ascension Platform
He wanted to see what would happen.
When the purple energy covered him, his cultivation began to fluctuate.
Immediately after, the surrounding aura began to change strangely.
Fortunately, the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron released a strong light to suppress it.
The consumption of merit from it was even more intense than before.
This sudden change made Jiang Hao a little concerned.
Then, he felt as though he was standing in front of a flight of stairs. There was fog above the stairs. As the fog dissipated, he could see the stairs clearly.
Without hesitation, he lifted his head and took the first step.
A vast aura pressed down, and he felt his body trembling under the pressure.
However, he managed to lift his leg and step on the second stair.
In an instant, a powerful force surged through his body and washed away the ill fortune.
Only then did he open his eyes.
He looked at his interface first.
[Lifeblood: 53/100 (can be cultivated)]
[Cultivation: 58100 (can be cultivated)]
He was surprised that more than half the points were still available.
He had indeed reached the second stage of the Immortal Ascension Platform.
“Does this mean that it’ll take me less time to raise my cultivation next time?”
He had thought that it would take fifty more years. Even if he worked hard, it would still take him about twenty years.
It seemed ten years would be plenty to advance to the next stage.
There was still plenty of time.
However, there was one thing that was troublesome.
Once he advanced, there would be problems with the Karma Vortex.
It would consume even more merit.
Without the support of powerful luck, he would fail.
He appraised his status.
[Status: The Heaven Extinction Gu Poison and Hong Yuye’s One Heart Palm are simultaneously involved in the Karma Vortex of the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl, and the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl. At the same time, with the vast merit of the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron, it can maintain balance with the Karma Vortex. If the 24 years of merit is exhausted, the Mountain Sea Seal can strengthen the Merit Cauldron.]
