Chapter 1482: Jiang Hao, It’s Time For School!
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jing Dajiang had left the Astronomical Academy and was stationed at the border between the South and the West.
“Could we have guessed wrong this time?” the bearded elder asked.
“If not here, then where?” Jing Dajiang said in resignation as he held a teapot. “Ever since I met that little girl, life hasn’t been peaceful.”
“Indeed, we should get rid of her,” said the elder without the beard.
However, as they were talking, a sudden feeling of unease struck them.
In an instant, they looked toward the south.
...
In the distance, beyond their sight, they saw a green sun.
It was clearly supposed to be sunset, yet in the south, a sun was rising. Moreover, it was a green sun.
Seeing this, Jing Dajiang was stunned. “The Earth Extreme Silent Pearl?”
In a split second, energy erupted, and he activated all the formations.
“Initiate the Four Symbols Formation and notify the other immortal sects. Hurry!”
Jing Dajiang and the others did not dare hesitate. They had to suppress it with the formation.
Otherwise, the South would be destroyed.
The chaos in the heavenly secrets definitely originated here.
Fortunately, they had prepared in advance.
But…
Even if they could temporarily suppress it, it was of no use.
Only those with great fortune could try to seal this thing.
This time it had truly erupted, and without a person of great fortune, they could only suppress it temporarily.
But the only person of great fortune had yet to ascend, and even if they did, it would not be enough.
“What should we do?” the bearded elder asked.
“I don’t know. But where is that person?” Jing Dajiang was puzzled.
What exactly happened in the South?
Was it that the seal could no longer hold the pearl, or did something happen to that person?
Unfortunately, they had no information.
At the eastern border, Si Cheng looked at the sky in disbelief. “How could it be this?”
He found it hard to understand. He knew from his sources that the three pearls were connected.
If one of them erupted, it meant that the person who could suppress the pearls had been compromised.
So, while the danger seemed confined to one pearl, in reality, it could be that…
All three pearls might erupt!
“Supreme Heavenly Mirror!”
At that moment, the Clear Sky School’s people made their move as they wielded the power of endless mountains and rivers to suppress the situation.
Si Cheng did not spend time thinking and immediately commanded, “Divide a portion of people to support the Four Symbols Formation and have the others set up the Star River Formation to gather the great force of the mountains and rivers. There’s no other way.”
The members of the Clear Sky School were flying South one after the other.
They needed to get close to the source and suppress it.
They could buy some time.
Otherwise, no one in the South would survive.
However, just as the Supreme Heavenly Mirror approached the area, a red light suddenly covered the entire green star and halted its spread momentarily.
Seeing this, Si Cheng was shocked. “Is this the work of a person with great fortune? No… Someone is using a relic of a former person of great fortune to buy us time.”
At the same time, something in the heavens was being mobilized.
It was merit and luck.
A cauldron appeared in the sky and emitted the aura of a person of great fortune.
It was faint.
Si Cheng immediately knew who it was. “Haoyue, keep an eye on your disciple. This is enough. She mustn’t go deeper.”
Haoyue nodded. “Don’t worry. She knows her limits.”
At the boundary, Chu Jie was using the Astronomical Academy’s Immortal Sage Ink Brush to write meritorious scriptures in midair. She aimed to trigger the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron.
Yan Yuezhi stood behind her and watched.
Although Jing Dajiang had said he would not lend it, he ultimately did.
However, she, as someone with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, was forbidden from leaving the West with it.
‘How did it come to this?’ Yan Yuezhi thought in disbelief.
She knew that the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl was with Jing. Not just that, he also had the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl. Since one had erupted, it meant Jing from the gathering could no longer seal them.
Had something happened to Jing?
Regardless, the situation was dire. This could very well lead to the eruption of all three pearls.
If that happened, the South was doomed.
Other regions would not fare any better.
The Great Era had just begun, and the world was about to be destroyed.
The returning races might start to regret their decisions.
Indeed, the members of the Immortal Clan were shocked.
When did this world become so dangerous? Without warning, the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl erupted.
Bi Zhu, who was still in the South, cried when she saw the green sun.
She really started wailing.
“It’s over! Auntie Qiao, we’re going to die! We can’t escape. I’m only eighteen.”
Her forehead was burning hot.
She had luck on her side, but it did not matter.
There was no escaping this.
Gu Changsheng, who had somewhat recovered, remained silent.
This world was more dangerous than the previous one.
Overseas, The End of All Things laughed. “That feeling… It’s here!”
In the Heavenly Tower, Chi Tian suddenly got up and looked toward the South. “My elder brother is in trouble…”
In Azure Mountain, the Holy Master stood up in confusion. “Why would something like this happen when the Great Era just began?”
In the Heavenly Note Sect’s Sea Fog Cave, the dense fog rolled, and a faintly discernible figure appeared within it.
“Is he dead? How’s that possible?”
The voice carried a mix of sorrow and anger.
Boom!
In the sky about the southern region, a strange phenomenon unfolded.
One side was pouring rain, while the other was brightly sunny.
It seemed to express both sorrow and joy at the same time.
It was incomprehensible.
The green star was covered by red light, and within it, a red figure was swiftly moving deeper.
A blade intent appeared around her. It circulated around her and shielded her from the effects of the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl.
But the deeper she went, the dimmer the blade intent became. She would not last much longer, especially with the force’s impact.
She had come in search of someone but did not know where he was. All her senses were useless within this place.
Whoosh!
A storm of energy swept through. Hong Yuye frowned. She did not have much strength left.
Bam!
Suddenly, two skeletons came whistling over.
Bam!
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
The skeletons, still clothed, crashed into a mountain.
Hong Yuye immediately rushed toward the one in navy blue robes.
As she approached, she knew whose skeleton this was.
Without hesitation, she picked it up.
At that moment, the blade beneath her lifted them both and carried them out.
However, they were moving too slowly.
At this speed, they might not outrun the expanding Earth Extreme Silent Pearl, and they would certainly die within.
As for Jiang Hao’s Yin-Yang Bracelet, it had long since lost its effect.
Hong Yuye put Jiang Hao down and pointed a finger at his forehead.
In an instant, a profound rune emerged from her own brow. It was filled with the essence of the Great Dao.
As the rune emerged, Hong Yuye’s face turned deathly pale.
But she wasted no time and embedded the rune into Jiang Hao’s skull.
In a flash, Jiang Hao’s skeleton was enveloped by the light of the Great Dao.
Flesh and blood began to regenerate.
Hong Yuye felt a surge of joy. “There’s still time. There’s time…”
However, while his body was recovering, there was no sign of life within him.
“Where is his soul?” She coughed up blood but did not care.
She focused only on retrieving Jiang Hao’s soul.
But…
It was too late.
But inside Jiang Hao’s body, the virtual interface started to tremble.
His divine abilities began to waver.
Moments later, his first divine ability, Nine Revolutions Death Substitution, suddenly vanished as if it had never existed.
In the void, Jiang Hao, who had accepted his death, felt his consciousness fading. His body was sinking.
He had done well and had no big regrets but…
He wanted to see his stepmother.
As he neared death, memories of his life before the age of five flashed through his mind.
She would scold him and beat him. When he was four years old, she made him chop firewood, but she would also sneak extra food just for him. She would occasionally buy him things he liked.
Although she was not known for kin words…
Everything felt too familiar.
She felt like his real mother.
The same tone of voice and the same look of disdain…
He could not remember his father’s face, but he remembered his stepmother vividly.
He did not want to forget her. He refused to forget her.
He never could let go of her.
As a child, he had always called her “Mother.”
But in the end, she sold him.
It had been many years ago, so he no longer blamed her, but…
Jiang Hao instinctively reached out to touch her face but could not find her. He could not see her. He could not see any of them.
With some regret, Jiang Hao drifted into darkness.
He fell into a deep sleep. Maybe he would never wake up again.
Yet, as he drifted into oblivion, he suddenly heard an angry voice.
“Jiang Hao, it’s time for school! How long are you going to sleep?”
