Chapter 482: Undercover At Azure Mountain
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Early in the morning, Jiang Hao walked out into the courtyard.
He saw the spirit beast lying in front of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flowers. It was drooling.
The spirit beast had been like this ever since it returned. It sometimes eagerly licked the leaves.
The scent of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower was appealing to both spirit beasts and humans.
It was precisely because Hong Yuye liked the flower that no one else was allowed to touch it.
Jiang Hao worried that if the spirit beast licked it, it might not survive the next day.
Suddenly, the spirit beast twitched and sat up. It wiped its drool and noticed Jiang Hao. “Master, why are you up so early?”
“You’re the one who’s late.”
After collecting the bubbles, Jiang Hao began to water the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.
There were many flowers in the courtyard, especially lotus flowers, which were abundant.
Snow Lotus, Blue Lotus, Black Lotus, Red Lotus, and a few more would make it a true Seven Lotus Flower.
“Master, last night I saw Lin Zhi. He might be going back to his hometown with his two friends after a while.” The spirit beast jumped onto a peach tree that was already taller than the surrounding walls.
“He’s still at the first stage of the Lifeblood Refinement Realm, while his two friends are already at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.”
After reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm, they were no longer ordinary people, and the most obvious changes were in their strength and lifespan.
In their eyes, ordinary people and even those at the Lifeblood Refinement Realm were like clumps of dirt that would turn to dust in no time.
They would always look down on others, even if they tried to not show it outwardly. The sense of superiority would be displayed subtly.
“Are they going home to visit their families?” Jiang Hao asked.
“They said they were worried that the commotion caused by the Blood Wish Path might affect their hometown, so they want to go back and check. It’s also a good opportunity for them to gain experience.” The spirit beast swung on the tree.
Occasionally, it played with its collar and the golden ring. It spun the items in succession like a juggling act.
All the old collars were cracked. The spirit beast didn’t want to throw them away.
“His ability to take a beating has improved a lot, and the Star Moon Lifeblood Refinement Technique is at the sixth stage,” said the spirit beast.
Jiang Hao didn’t ask any more questions.
Lin Zhi’s path was the most difficult, but it might also be the safest.
After all, for the most part, he didn’t need to leave the sect because his cultivation realm was too low, so he was usually assigned to do miscellaneous tasks.
He would mainly interact with other Lifeblood Refinement Realm cultivators. At most, he would take a good beating.
He had done that already for a few years.
But the biggest problem was his mental state. Jiang Hao didn’t know if Lin Zhi could endure it for long.
After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Hao said, ‘When they’re about to set off, follow them secretly. Don’t show yourself.”
“Alright.” The spirit beast jumped onto the tree and patted its chest. “Master, rest assured, you can leave it to me. My friends know that I’m the most reliable demon.”
Jiang Hao just smiled.
After watering the plants, he turned and left the courtyard.
So far, the only thing he needed to be concerned about was Dan Qingzi. The overseas issues would have to wait, and he hadn’t received any clue about Yin Wei yet, so he had no choice but to wait.
Only the matter with Dan Qingzi couldn’t be delayed. He had to deal with it as soon as possible.
After some hesitation, he decided to visit the Lawless Tower again and assess Dan Qingzi once again.
In the evening, Jiang Hao looked at the empty cell and frowned.
“Was he sent down?”
“Yes. He confessed everything yesterday,” Zhuang Yuzhen said.
“I see.” Jiang Hao’s heart sank. It seemed that he had to leave as soon as possible.
Dan Qingzi was in the Primordial Spirit Realm, and that was because the Lawless Tower had absorbed his cultivation. It might only take him a few days to recover.
Time was running out.
‘Dan Qingzi is really decisive.’
Dealing with such a person was troublesome.
Zhuang Yuzhen and Heavenly King Hai Luo were much easier to handle.
“Senior, have you been here for a long time?” Jiang Hao approached Zhuang
Yuzhen.
“I’d like to go back, but last time when the people from the Divine Corpse Sect came here, you guys didn’t plan to release me,” Zhuang Yuzhen said helplessly.
“Senior, could you please share some clues about the mysterious person who put you up to the task? It might help free you,” Jiang Hao said.
Jiang Hao suspected that the mysterious person was Dan Yuan. If not, it should be someone related to him like the Bright Moon Sect.
“It’s impossible. I know too much about the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower. The Heavenly Note Sect won’t let me go. It’s better to just stay here. They can afford to wait, and so can I. There’s nothing wrong with it.” Zhuang Yuzhen shook his head and smiled.
Jiang Hao didn’t say anything.
That was indeed the case.
Zhuang Yuzhen knew too much about the flower, as well as the sect’s situation. Elder Baizhi would not let him leave so easily.
Moreover, once he left, the information he had about the mysterious person
would be gone.
The sect needed to keep him locked up for now.
Zhuang Yuzhen was more concerned about the Corpse Heart.
As long as the Corpse Heart was channeled, he could leave and even rise to a higher level.
If the Corpse Heart wasn’t in the Heavenly Note Sect, he would be fine.
After that, Jiang Hao asked some questions about formations.
Although Zhuang Yuzhen wasn’t proficient in these, he had more than enough knowledge to teach a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, especially one with little knowledge of formations.
Jiang Hao studied all night, but he could only grasp a little.
It seemed his talent for formations was a bit low. He found it relatively easy to understand when learning about talismans instead.
It could also be the fault of the person teaching him. The one who taught him before was a master, but now the one teaching him was only at an ordinary level.
As he taught, Zhuang Yuzhen noticed that Jiang Hao had reached the Golden Core Realm. He was surprised, but he didn’t say much.
After leaving the Lawless Tower, Jiang Hao went to the Task Hall.
“Junior Brother Jiang, you’re here again? Come, we have a task here. Let me show you.” The Senior Sister at the counter beamed.
Jiang Hao was speechless.
“It’s relatively simple this time. You need to go undercover to Azure Mountain and find some basic information about a person named Zhuo Qing,” said the Senior Sister.
“How many spirit stones if I fail?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Because it’s a simple task, failing will only cost you 2,500 spirit stones.” “What if I succeed?” Jiang Hao asked.
“You’ll receive merits that can be added to the Merit Hall. It’ll boost your ranking in Merit Hall. It can also make the Law Enforcement Hall push your name down the suspect list. That’ll make it easier for you to regain your freedom.”
The Task Hall had it convenient. They didn’t pay anyone anything at all.
Jiang Hao accepted the task.
The senior smiled. She was already starting to calculate the amount he would have to pay.
Later, Jiang Hao went to the Spirit Herb Garden, collected some bubbles, and then returned to his residence to water the spirit herbs.
After doing all that, he started making the Thousand Miles Teleportation Talismans.
At the middle stage of the Soul Ascension Realm, coupled with his divine abilities, he succeeded in making the talisman without any injuries.
However, the quality of the talisman was low. It spanned from eight hundred miles to one thousand and one hundred miles.
After using the Heaven Secrets Hidden Talisman on himself, Jiang Hao activated the Thousand Miles Teleportation Talisman.
This time, he would be gone for five days.
He had to return within five days, or else the effect of the Heaven Secrets Hidden Talisman would run out. If someone was still watching him, they would notice him immediately.
The ones he needed to be most wary of were the Heavenly Saint Sect and the Fallen Immortal Clan.
It seemed that the Sunset Immortal Sect had given up. No one came to trouble him even after they breached the mines.
However, he still needed to be cautious.
On the third floor of the Lawless Tower, Dan Qingzi lowered his head.
His cultivation was now declining rapidly.
“Just a few more days… just a few more days..”
