Chapter 250: The Big Show Begins
Early September.
There are still more than ten days left before the sect mission.
Today, Jiang Hao stood in front of the peach tree, which was now full of peaches, but they were not yet ripe.
He picked a fruit to taste, sour and sweet.
“The fruits that follow will be exceptionally sweet.”
With each year’s nirvana, the taste of the peaches improved.
After a mont of contemplation, Jiang Hao activated his divine power.
He wanted to see how many spirit stones were needed.
【Peach Tree: Related to the ancient divine peach tree, it possesses a trace of the divine tree’s characteristics, and its fruit is sweet. Leave one fruit on the tree, and arrange a spirit gathering formation with fourteen thousand seven hundred spirit stones around it to stimulate a trace of the divine tree’s characteristics and initiate nirvana. After seven nirvanas, it will beco a divine peach tree. Being near divine objects makes nirvana more likely to succeed.】
“Fourteen thousand seven hundred, that’s quite a lot.”
Jiang Hao frowned slightly.
Although he had sold quite a few talismans, his current savings were only ten thousand three hundred.
That’s still around four thousand short.
If he still owes Enforcent Peak one thousand, then it’s 5,000 short.
“The sect mission this ti is better, maybe 300, but that’s still not enough.”
The reward for a Foundation Establishnt period sect mission is usually a few hundred spirit stones, and 300 is already not a small amount.
Golden Core at least one thousand.
Nascent Soul naturally even more.
But he hasn’t cooperated with Nascent Soul yet, so he’s not very clear about it.
So it’s still better to earn spirit stones by recruiting disciples.
Because at that ti, his master gave him three thousand.
That might be the standard for Nascent Soul.
Later, when the Corpse Realm Flower blood, he was given five thousand.
Unfortunately, it’s still 4,000 short.
He could only wait and see, if he really couldn’t gather enough, he would have to wait until next year.
Having made up his mind, he went to the corner to look at the bamboo shoots he had planted.
Before planting, he had identified them as ordinary bamboo shoots, just plant them and that’s it.
Occasionally water them, nothing else needed.
After all, this place is rich in spiritual energy, and there are not a few divine objects.
It’s enough for it to grow quickly.
Ordinary bamboo is just ordinary bamboo, as long as there is enough ti, he could also make this bamboo into a divine object, if he could live that long.
“Master, I’ve discovered that the outside world is very vast, why don’t you go out and explore?” the rabbit hopped over to Jiang Hao and asked.
“I’ll send you to a more vast place in the future,” Jiang Hao said with a smile.
“Will Master go?” the rabbit asked.
Jiang Hao smiled without answering.
After watering the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, he went out.
On the way, he said to the rabbit:
“In a little while, you’ll be a Golden Core great demon.”
The rabbit is now close to completing the Foundation Establishnt and is nearing Golden Core.
“Master, don’t joke with , all friends on the road know I’m just an ordinary rabbit,” the rabbit waved its hand and said.
Jiang Hao didn’t mind and continued towards the Spiritual dicine Garden.
On the way, he t Senior Sister Miao Tinglian.
“Junior Brother, you’re here? I just happened to be looking for you,” Miao Tinglian said with a smile.
“Senior Sister, what do you need for?” Jiang Hao asked, puzzled.
The Corpse Realm Flower should be fine.
“Here, I’m giving you sothing,” Miao Tinglian said, handing Jiang Hao two thousand spirit stones.
“What’s this for?” Jiang Hao was astonished.
Why suddenly give so many spirit stones?
Two thousand is not a small amount.
It would take him a lot of ti to earn them, if he only relied on the sect’s monthly resources.
That would take five years.
“Not just these, there’s also this.”
Miao Tinglian then gave Jiang Hao a bottle of elixir.
After checking it, Jiang Hao exclaid:
“Heaven Replenishing Pill?”
“Yes, I specifically asked Mu Qi to prepare it for you because I thought it might co in handy. Plus, having too many spirit stones is too dangerous; dicinal pills are safer,” Miao Tinglian said.
Jiang Hao was puzzled.
Where did these spirit stones co from?
Sensing Jiang Hao’s confusion, Miao Tinglian explained,
“Because of the Corpse Realm Flower, people from all sects didn’t know how to transplant it and had to co to ask , right? Did they think I would offer my advice for free? I charged them a hefty sum, so you, Junior Brother, have received your deserved share.”
So that’s how it was. Jiang Hao hesitated for a long ti before asking,
“Can it be converted into spirit stones?”
Miao Tinglian was speechless. Mu Qi had hit the nail on the head.
“The market price at the sect is four thousand; I’ll give you five thousand,” she said.
After a long hesitation, she kindly reminded him, “Junior Brother, you mustn’t tell anyone that you have so many spirit stones; it’s very dangerous. A Foundation Establishnt cultivator with over ten thousand spirit stones will attract a lot of unwanted attention. You should act as if you have spent a lot.”
“Thank you for the reminder, Senior Sister,” Jiang Hao nodded in thanks.
He knew that having too many spirit stones at the late stage of Foundation Establishnt was not safe.
And that was if others didn’t know about the five thousand from his master; otherwise...
How many would be envious?
Having received five thousand spirit stones, Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the market price was cheaper then the one he sell, it was still a windfall.
A total of seven thousand, after deducting the required four thousand, left him with three thousand. Subtracting another thousand for the Enforcent Peak, he could save two thousand.
He would use those two thousand to buy more materials for talisman making.
It would appear that he was spending a lot and producing few finished products.
That would be sowhat safer.
......
In mid-September, Jiang Hao went to the Enforcent Peak.
This ti, he ran into Liu Xingchen again, who was different from before; his aura had changed.
Not only did he have dragon qi, but also black qi.
It was as if the remnants of a True Dragon’s soul and the Ancient Witch’s soul had joined forces.
“Did I hear that Junior Brother specifically requested a sect mission?”
“Yes,” Jiang Hao nodded and simultaneously activated his appraisal skill.
The feedback from his divine ability ca quickly.
【Liu Xingchen: A true disciple of the Haotian Sect, born with the aura of Dragon Slaughter. Undercover in the Tianyin Sect’s Enforcent Peak. The remnants of a True Dragon’s soul and an Ancient Witch’s soul within him sense a fatal threat and are exerting influence, summoning other remnants to possess him, intending for the three parties to completely control the body together. Aware of these developnts, he wanders around the Demon Cavern and the mines, hoping the next one will co quickly so he can witness the three forces vying for possession. He befriends you to get closer to the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower and to watch the drama unfold. He is increasingly interested in you, suspecting that you may be related to the deaths of Du Yong and an unknown Nascent Soul.】
Ready to welco a newcor?
Jiang Hao had no way of knowing Liu Xingchen’s thoughts, but one thing was certain: the man was extrely confident.
Wasn’t he afraid of playing with fire?
Perhaps this was the pride of a genius.
If the remnants of the True Dragon’s soul and the Ancient Witch’s soul knew about this, who knows how they would feel?
Probably quite desperate.
However, Jiang Hao had no idea what the fatal threat they sensed was.
The plot intrigued him, but the end made him sowhat nervous.
Du Yong’s death was indeed being investigated, but no one had co to question him.
Was it because he died outside?
“I heard that next year we were supposed to have a new Junior Brother, or rather, recruit a new disciple, but now it seems soone else will take the place,” Liu Xingchen said with so regret.
For a mont, Jiang Hao felt like he had lost three thousand spirit stones.
“By the way, Junior Brother, do you rember Du Yong?” Liu Xingchen suddenly asked.
“I rember him; he used to co to Duanqing Cliff often to observe the Spiritual dicine Garden,” Jiang Hao replied without changing his expression.
“We checked, and he was an undercover agent, or rather, replaced by one, becoming an undercover agent for our sect. He was killed outside not long ago,” Liu Xingchen said with so helplessness.
“We wanted to find out who was behind it, but we haven’t found his main body yet. We’re still searching in secret. It’s said that Junior Brother was quite close to him, so now it’s impossible to even remove you on the watch list.”
After a few more words, Liu Xingchen excused himself to go to the mines: “I have to attend to important matters.”
Important matters indeed—was he trying to attract sothing to possess him?
Jiang Hao was both shocked and impressed.
But Du Yong’s case still concerned him.
