Chapter 169: Is This a Group Chat?
In the boundless void within the circle of light.
Jiang Hao confird his own state, which was like a mist.
At the sa ti, he realized that he wasn’t the only one in a mist-like state; there were others.
The voice of the other party was also clearly heard by him.
In front of him were three people.
Seeing these three, he imdiately knew their nas.
The female who initially spoke was known as “鬼” (Gui/Ghost).
The remaining two, the slightly taller one on the left was “柳” (Liu/Willow), and the slender one on the right was “星” (Xing/Star).
A public chat, is it really like this? Jiang Hao was inwardly astonished.
But he didn’t show it, maintaining a calm deanor.
Under the gaze of the three, he bowed slightly:
“I apologize for the disturbance.”
“Jing?”
The tall “柳” (Liu/Willow) spoke with a deep voice.
“It seems we have a newcor.”
“Surprisingly, a newcor. Do you know the rules?” the tall man nad “星” (Xing/Star) asked rather casually.
Jiang Hao shook his head honestly in response.
However, he understood one thing: “Jing” was the na he would be known by here.
Each stone slab seed to have its own position or title.
And the user would inherit this title.
“Tell us who you are and what area you’re from. Our rule is to introduce yourself when you arrive,” said the only female present, “鬼” (Gui/Ghost), her voice carrying a hint of amusent.
Introduce himself? Jiang Hao didn’t think that was a rule.
Even if it were, he wouldn’t follow it.
All he needed to do was to avoid being discovered as an undercover agent; nothing else mattered.
He had no intention of gaining any benefits from here, at least not for now.
Of course, that didn’t an there were no benefits to be had.
One such benefit was the piece of information he had just overheard: the Tiansheng Sect was planning to make a move against the Tianyin Sect.
Whether it was true or not, he didn’t know, but it was likely related to him, or rather, to the mine.
“I won’t disturb the three of you any longer, farewell.”
Jiang Hao had no intention of sticking around.
These people wanted to pry into his background; he couldn’t give them the chance.
He would withdraw first and then make plans.
As his words ended, he didn’t give the three individuals a chance to respond and disappeared from the spot.
“Huh, he left just like that?”
“鬼” (Gui/Ghost), who had been waiting for the newcor to fall into her trick, was sowhat taken aback.
It was the first ti she had seen a newcor leave so decisively.
“It seems that Fairy Gui’s plan to inquire about the newcor’s background has fallen through,” the man known as “星” (Xing/Star) said with a chuckle.
“鬼” (Gui/Ghost) replied with a hint of disdain, “This person will co back. Once here, no one would give up the opportunity for collaboration.”
“True, let’s just wait,” the tall man nad “柳” (Liu/Willow) nodded in agreent.
At this mont, Jiang Hao had stepped out.
He was sowhat surprised by the function of the stone slab, which allowed him to enter and converse within it.
He just didn’t know if there were any restrictions.
He looked at the stone slab again and noticed that there were conversation ssages on it.
Gui: Where were we before we got interrupted by that newcor?
Liu: We were talking about the Tiansheng Sect planning to attack the Tianyin Sect.
Gui: Right, right. So people in the Tiansheng Sect have gone mad, but never mind, I’m busy now, gotta go, we’ll talk next ti.
Jiang Hao watched as the ssages stopped and then disappeared, admiring the owner of this Secret Whisper Slate.
How did he manage to create such a treasure?
But he also realized sothing: the slate allowed him to see their conversations, but to speak, he would have to enter it.
And if he talked inside, others could see it too.
However, one needed to pay constant attention to catch the conversation.
Because by now, the text had completely vanished.
“Let’s just wait and see.”
Although surprised by the function of this magical item, he needed to understand the situation more clearly before acting.
Moreover, there seed to be an even stronger presence in this public area.
As for the codenas that appeared on the slate, there were four so far.
Jing (Well), Gui (Ghost), Liu (Willow), Xing (Star).
Each corresponding to four people, with a few others still a mystery.
It was certain that there were quite a few owners of the tri-rged Secret Whisper Slate.
His undercover mission was to find the source of the Secret Whisper Slate, and if he could collect more of them, all the better.
Afterward, Jiang Hao put away the Secret Whisper Slate and began crafting talismans.
To make the Black Lotus seeds take root and sprout as soon as possible, he needed to earn more spirit stones and invest money in planting.
He had to buy spirit liquid and also prepare good tea leaves in case Hong Yuye suddenly arrived.
More than twenty days later.
Jiang Hao assessed the Black Lotus seeds in the Spiritual dicine Garden.
The answer he got was that they would take root and sprout tomorrow.
This suddenly excited him.
Nearly a month had passed, and he was finally approaching the day.
It was important to note that it wasn’t just one seed but a full fifty.
During this ti, he had invested over a thousand spirit stones, putting in all the movable spirit stones he had.
This was still the result of his hard work crafting talismans; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been enough.
He had almost run out of spirit stones to buy tea leaves.
“Fifty, huh? I wonder how many bubbles will appear tomorrow.”
Standing by the edge of the Spiritual dicine Garden, Jiang Hao began to calculate.
If there was one bubble per seed, that would be twenty-five points each.
That would be the best outco.
But from his experience as a demon slayer, blue bubbles didn’t appear every ti.
“Even if it’s halved, that would be twenty-five points, which averages out to twelve or thirteen.”
At that mont, Jiang Hao glanced at his panel’s vital energy and cultivation.
【Vital Energy: 78/100 (can be cultivated)】
【Cultivation: 80/100 (can be cultivated)】
“There’s a little over a month left before heading to the Demon Cavern, more than enough for to advance to Nascent Soul. Let’s see what happens tomorrow.”
Jiang Hao was looking forward to it.
After calming his mind, he began to organize the spiritual dicines.
After completing these tasks, he sat down in the simple wooden hut, observing his surroundings.
Just by observing, he noticed a girl around fifteen or sixteen years old acting sowhat strangely.
Seeing this, he walked over.
“Your movents are a bit erratic,” Jiang Hao said calmly, standing beside her.
At that mont, the girl was startled and imdiately knelt before Jiang Hao.
“I didn’t damage the spiritual dicine.”
“Do you know how valuable this spiritual dicine is?” Jiang Hao asked coldly.
“Your breathing is unstable, and you’re losing balance in your limbs. If you damaged the spiritual dicine, could you afford to compensate for it?”
Seeing the girl panic, Jiang Hao perford a healing technique and said:
“Go back and rest. Co back tomorrow.”
The girl was sick, probably with a high fever.
How could she dare to enter the Spiritual dicine Garden in such a state?
He then instructed the guards that anyone who was sick or feeling unwell must not touch the spiritual dicine.
If they damaged it, who would compensate?
They should return only after recovering.
......
In the evening, Jiang Hao returned to his residence.
He sat in the courtyard, finding it hard to calm his mind.
Because he was sowhat looking forward to tomorrow.
If the Black Lotus really sprouted and suddenly produced forty or fifty blue bubbles,
that would be an unprecedented sight for him.
As long as he earned enough spirit stones, the future looked promising.
With spirit stones, one could really have anything.
While waiting for dawn, Jiang Hao glanced at the stone slate; these days, he occasionally observed the Secret Whisper Slate.
He noticed that the sa three people were always communicating, leading him to suspect that there were only four of them in the public area.
If there were others, it could only an one thing: these three were particularly talkative and idle.
As an undercover agent, he should blend in with them, but...
He really didn’t have that much free ti.
He could only continue to observe.
After watching for half the night, he realized that their conversations were utterly unproductive.
So, he stopped paying attention.
In the early morning,
After collecting two bubbles from the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, Jiang Hao woke up the rabbit.
“Let’s go to the Spiritual dicine Garden.”
The rabbit rubbed its eyes and yawned.
“Master, why are you up so early? Are you going to find the mistress?”
