They mostly returned to their hometowns, with only a few working from their youth until old age.
Working from the Spirit Herb Garden to the dining hall, finally dying of old age.
Birth, aging, illness, death.
Sometimes, observing all this, Jiang Hao couldn’t calm his heart.
As people age and fall ill, they, being ordinary, have no solutions.
Powerless and helpless before fate.
“Have you noticed anything?” Jiang Hao asked.
He was referring to the ordinary people in the Spirit Herb Garden.
“I’ve found one, but I need to further confirm,” Cheng Chou immediately replied.
Jiang Hao nodded.
Finding even one wasn’t bad.
There were only three in total.
But since they weren’t dangerous, he let them be.
It was just a way to train Cheng Chou.
Later, Jiang Hao went into the Spirit Herb Garden to take care of some things, having not been there for a while; many people did not recognize him.
In the evening.
Jiang Hao merged into the darkness, step by step making his way to his master’s location.
He still hadn’t figured out how to give the medicinal pill to his master.
In that case, just leave it at the door.
He just didn’t know what his master would think.
Arriving at his master’s courtyard and facing the closed doors, he sensed chaotic energy.
His master wanted to recover, but his injuries were too severe, and he was powerless to help.
Feeling everything, Jiang Hao’s eyes carried a melancholy: “When ordinary people grow old, fall ill, they are helpless and powerless, and immortals… it turns out to be the same.”
Placing the item at the door, Jiang Hao gently knocked.
Thud thud!
Very soon, the energy inside momentarily paused, then quickly surged towards the door.
Boom!
A force struck out.
Blowing the door open.
Ku Wu Chang appeared in the doorway, his face full of surprise, scanning his surroundings.
No one was there, and no aura was detected.
But there had definitely been a knock on the door.
“Which Friend Xing is it? Why not show yourself?”
The deep voice of Ku Wu Chang rang out.
There was no response.
However, soon he saw an exquisite box at his feet.
With suspicion, Ku Wu Chang picked it up.
After cautiously making sure it was safe, he opened the box.
The fragrance of the medicinal pill wafted out, and in just a breath, Ku Wu Chang realized that his long-unhealable injuries had actually started to alleviate.
This…
One month later.
Early December.
A light burst out from the Cliff of Broken Hearts.
The aura of an Immortal Human spread out.
The Immortal Fate became even denser.
Jiang Hao, who had been tending to the spirit herbs, slightly lifted his head.
“In the direction of my master’s residence.”
“It seems Master’s injuries have healed.”
Setting down the spirit herbs, he walked out.
Since many fellow disciples, senior brothers, and senior sisters were hurrying over, he naturally wanted to go as well.
After a while.
Jiang Hao stood next to Senior Brother Mu Qi, watching his master’s courtyard.
Miao Tinglian was also there, making room for Jiang Hao to move closer.
“Junior brother, what do you think happened to Master?”
“It must be a good thing,” Jiang Hao replied.
“This dense Immortal Fate and the robust vitality, it must mean Master’s injuries have recovered,” Mu Qi spoke.
Sure enough, as his words fell, Ku Wu Chang, shrouded in Immortal Fate, became visible to everyone.
“Congratulations to Master on advancing further.”
Everyone bowed respectfully to offer their congratulations.
Jiang Hao did the same.
Then all the Branch Masters came over, even Elder Baizhi came in person.
Jiang Hao and the rest naturally stepped back.
On the way, Jiang Hao and his fellow Senior Brothers and Sisters walked together.
Finally, he asked the question he had been curious about for a month: “Senior Sister Miao, do you often introduce me to others?”
Hearing this, Miao Tinglian perked up: “Yes, I do.”
“And how do you introduce me?” Jiang Hao inquired.
“Handsome and dashing, with unrivaled innate talents, the future ‘Gu Jin,’ destined to dominate the era, an astonishing seedling disciple.” Miao Tinglian answered seriously.
Hearing this, Jiang Hao frowned slightly: “Isn’t that a bit too much?”
“But I think I’ve put it quite mildly,” Miao Tinglian declared with conviction.
Jiang Hao: “…”
Did Yu Ye ask him because she thought he had such thoughts?
Afterward, he didn’t care anymore.
The days that followed became incredibly stable.
Master had recovered, and everyone at the Cliff of Broken Hearts grew confident.
All the previous unease and turmoil had vanished.
Three months later.
In March of the second year.
Senior Brother Bai Yi returned.
Although he was wounded, his cultivation had advanced considerably, as if he had encountered many fortuitous opportunities.
Jiang Hao met him once, offering only a simple greeting.
Then it was back to normal days.
Peaceful, as if returning to before he was nineteen.
Yet with the advent of the grand era, there were numerous changes within the sect.
Many disciples ventured out, and each time they returned, their cultivation level had risen somewhat.
The situation in the sect changed rapidly, with formerly ordinary disciples suddenly rising to prominence.
Opportunities and fates were everywhere, and everyone had endless possibilities.
As time passed, Jiang Hao also heard many pieces of news.
Whenever Cheng Chou heard any news from other disciples, he’d rush over to him:
“I heard that the previous green sun was created by Gu Jin, who is known to laugh three times.
“And apparently, he did it to steal the treasures of the dragon race, using the green sun as a threat.
“But who would have thought that he couldn’t control it and ended up killing himself as well as the dragons.
“People outside think laugh three times got what he deserved, trying to take others with him in death, shameless and despicable.”
Jiang Hao listened but didn’t really care.
“Does Senior Brother think laugh three times is the kind of person they say he is?” Cheng Chou asked curiously.
“Perhaps,” Jiang Hao replied.
“But I’ve heard another version too that seems more believable,” said Cheng Chou.
“What is it?” asked Jiang Hao.
“It says the people from the dragon race wanted to steal the great luck associated with being the first in history from laugh three times, and he used this great luck to suppress the green sun.
“The dragon people, ignorant of their own mortality, seized the luck and hence the green sun could no longer be suppressed, bringing about a great crisis,” explained Cheng Chou.
Hearing this, Jiang Hao was somewhat surprised.
He could understand the first version; it was likely spread by the dragon race.
The second version, however, obviously spoke in his defense.
Of course, it could also be intended to affect the dragon race, preventing them from quickly returning.
One proud dragon causing such a commotion – if a few more like him came, who knew what would happen?
Another three months passed.
At the start of June,
the eighty-four-year-old Jiang Hao felt his heart had completely calmed, unaffected even by a brush with death.
That day, he received a message from the Lawless Tower, asking him to visit the Lawless Tower.
It was because the Heavenly King Hai Luo had arrived.
“Why would Heavenly King Hai Luo suddenly come?” Jiang Hao wondered, surprised.
Still, he chose to head to the Lawless Tower.
Hai Luo’s position was still on the fifth floor, and he was imprisoned again.
“A Human Immortal just went in like that?”
Jiang Hao found it hard to believe; the Heavenly King truly didn’t seem to care about his own level of cultivation.
However, upon arrival, he found he had been mistaken.
Hai Luo’s cultivation might have been suppressed, but it was indeed that of a Human Immortal.
Senior Sister Yinsha mentioned it was done to allow him to take action.
Heavenly King Hai Luo was willing to be a fighter, but getting him to coordinate with others would depend on the capabilities of the Heavenly Note Sect.
“What does he need to coordinate for?” Jiang Hao asked, curious.
“Yes, he said he’s brought the secrets of The End of All Things, the Great Thousand God Sect, and the dragon race,” said Yinsha, pondering: “The first two might be more important, but we’re not in a hurry; it’s not the time to clash with others.”
Jiang Hao nodded in agreement.
He didn’t want to provoke those two powers for the time being.
But the secrets of the dragon race could be worth exploring, to see if they could be obtained.
After all, it was time to start dealing with the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart.
“Yo! Who is this? Early stage of Soul Ascension Realm, quite impressive,” a mocking voice rang out from the fifth floor’s second cell.
Senior Sister Yinsha frowned and looked towards Heavenly King Hai Luo.
“What are you looking at me for? What can you do to me? You can’t do anything in here, and outside the tower, I could crush you with one hand,” Heavenly King Hai Luo scoffed.
Hearing these words, Zhuang Yuzhen and the others widened their eyes, all eager to watch the drama unfold.
They might mock others,
but not Heavenly King Hai Luo.
Yan Shang looked on curiously.
Yinsha had a slight frown but seeing that Jiang Hao didn’t care, she left.
Jiang Hao looked at the middle-aged man before him and said solemnly, “Heavenly King, long time no see.”
It had been a long time indeed.
About thirty years or so.
After the twenty-five-year plan commenced, Hai Luo had returned, succeeded in ascending, it’s been over a decade now.
All added up, it’s close to forty years.
Hai Luo’s time away had far exceeded his time here.
“Back then, I was at the completion stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm, and you were at the early stage.
“Now, I’m at the middle stage of the Human Immortal Realm, and you are at the early stage of the Soul Ascension Realm.
“You ascend too slowly.
“What do you have now to suppress me with?
“I’m not targeting anyone in particular; I just want to let everyone present know – you’re all trash,” teased Heavenly King Hai Luo.
As his words fell, the entire fifth floor was stunned.
