Chapter 365: Preparing the Heavenly Essence Soul Modeling Mirror
Early the next morning, Jiang Hao followed the four people as they headed deeper inside.
They had been cleaning up for about a month, but the number of demons was inconsistent.
It seemed like there was no progress at all.
Fortunately, nothing unexpected occurred. They hadn’t encountered a Golden Core demon yet.
Otherwise, the five of them would be in trouble. If they didn’t provoke them, there shouldn’t be any danger.
Jiang Hao was surprised that there were still so many demons after they had spent their time clearing out the area in droves.
When he was here last time, the short demon was worried about the extinction of its kind. Now, they were numerous again.
Was it due to their fast reproductive rate?
But with so many at the Foundation Establishment Realm, they couldn’t let the demons go unchecked.
Jiang Hao was curious about what was at the core of the Devil’s Den.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t go there. Even if he could, it would be dangerous. Whether there were peerless legacies or great battles, he had no right to get
Ill’v’€nveu.
If there were benefits to be gained, the Heavenly Note Sect would have already taken them there.
There were countless geniuses and remarkable individuals in the cultivation world.
Although he was somewhat special, he knew his limitations.
“Now, should we go in?” asked An Jing.
“Of course, we should go in,” Hu Kai said loudly. “How else will we encounter more demons if we don’t go in?”
“But Senior Brother Hu, please don’t lure too many demons at once like before,” said Qi Xian.
“I know what to do. I don’t need you to teach me,” Hu Kai said.
Qi Xian was annoyed.
Jiang Hao sensed the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl in his storage treasure. He felt that he couldn’t delay any longer.
At first, he wanted to follow these people, wait for them to split up, and then evade the hidden person with the Body of Misfortune by himself. But now he couldn’t.
That person was getting closer, and their influence was getting stronger. It would be troublesome to continue following the group.
“How about we split up?” Jiang Hao said. It was what everyone had been thinking about, but they were hesitant to bring it up.
This place was dangerous, so it was safer to be in a group.
Hu Kai and the others didn’t get along well. Often, the danger came from him. That’s why Jiang Hao suggested splitting up.
However, everyone thought it was fine for now and continued to stick together. After all, they were all trying to complete the mission.
Now that Jiang Hao brought it up, everyone began to consider whether it was a good idea.
“Junior Brother Jiang, just because you suggest we split up, we have to do it? Do you think this team is yours?” Hu Kai asked.
“What do you think, Senior Brother Hu?” Jiang Hao asked politely.
“I disagree,” Hu Kai said.
“What about the other seniors?” Jiang Hao looked at the other three people.
Yi Wen hesitated for a moment. “I agree. We should split up.”
“We also agree to it,” said An Jing and Qi Xian.
Hu Kai frowned. His face darkened. “Since everyone’s opinions differ, let’s make a decision based on strength.”
“Senior Brother Hu, aren’t you being a little unfair? You’ve been at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm for so many years, and your main focus is combat. How can our strength possibly compare to yours?” Yi Wen was angry. As an alchemist, he had weaker combat abilities. How could he fight?
An Jing and Qi Xian were also similar in strength.
“Weakness is weakness. There is no excuse. Besides, the Cliff of Broken Hearts also specializes in combat, does it not?” said Hu Kai.
Jiang Hao stepped away. “I’m very sorry for offending you, Senior.”
As Hu Kai watched Jiang Hao preparing to leave, his whole body swelled up in anger. “You have a death wish!”
His arms seemed to carry the weight of a thousand gold coins. He punched.
Clang!
The Half-Moon Blade was already out of its scabbard. It glimmered like moonlight.
Boom!
The blade landed near Hu Kai’s neck. The strike of the blade swept behind and cut the trees in the forest. A trench was left in its wake.
Hu Kai’s arm was bleeding. Beads of cold sweat formed on his forehead. He trembled uncontrollably.
In the blink of an eye, he felt like he was going to die.
Jiang Hao sheathed his blade and politely said, “Thank you, Senior Brother Hu, for showing mercy on me and yielding.”
He put away his blade and left.
In just a few moments, he disappeared into the forest.
Hu Kai was panting heavily. He looked back at the trench behind him.
Their cultivation realm was the same, but Jiang Hao’s blade seemed sharper and more powerful.
The others all exchanged glances in astonishment.
“How did it go?” Baizhi asked.
“Mu Qiu refuses to talk, and the others only know that someone had contact with the traces of great luck, but that person disappeared. According to what they said, Mu Qiu had placed all his hopes on him. From Mu Qiu’s few words, it can be deduced that this person is searching for the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl. He might even find it soon,” said the black-robed woman.
“Find him. Dig up the earth if you have to. There’s not much time left,” Baizhi said.
Finally, she went to the Lawless Tower herself.
She went up to the fifth floor and stood before an old man who had been tortured.
“How can we find that person?” Baizhi asked.
“Hahaha…” Mu Qiu looked up at Baizhi and laughed. “Scared? Unfortunately, it’s too late. I can sense it. He’s getting close to the target. In just a few days, the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl will erupt. By then, you’ll all be dead. Everyone will die. Hahaha…”
An invisible blade light swept past and severed Mu Qiu’s arm.
“Tell me where that person is, and I’ll let you live. I’ll even help you in your cultivation and let you leave. You have my word.”
“Just a mere disciple of the Heavenly Note Sect has such an ability? Don’t use sweet words to deceive me. Soon, everyone will be equal. Everyone will die here,” Mu Qiu said. “No one can stop it. It’s useless to even try.” Baizhi scowled. “Do you really think we can’t find him?”
“Find him then, if you can. Hahaha…” Mu Qiu laughed maniacally.
Baizhi turned and left, and the black-robed woman followed behind her.
After leaving the Lawless Tower, Baizhi looked toward the sky. “Gather the other eleven branches, notify the Law Enforcement Hall, and prepare the Heavenly Essence Soul Modeling Mirror.”
The woman in the black robe was frightened. This was the second time in the sect’s history that the Heavenly Essence Soul Modeling Mirror was being used.
“Understood.” She dared not hesitate.
Baizhi didn’t know if the situation was really that severe, but she had seen the traces.
People from there had already died because of evil luck.
She needed to take this very seriously.
In the southern skies, two figures flew past.
“Junior Brother Fang, why do you have to take this risk with me?” Xu Bai asked.
“I have treasures given to me by my Master. Perhaps they can lend you a hand,” Fang Jin said solemnly.
After receiving the news, they pushed aside the other matters and headed to their destination. The Heavenly Note Sect.
At first, Xu Bai had intended to go alone, but Fang Jin would hear none of it.
He couldn’t refuse.
Xu Bail s jade pendant showed a mysterious formation, with sun, moon, and stars inside, and powerful spiritual energy circulating outside. It seemed to resonate with the stars in the skv.
“How is the Master?” Xu Bai asked the jade pendant.
“In the southern skies, a red star is rising. It indeed resembles the precursor to the eruption of the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl,” said a man from the jade pendant.
“Do we have a way to deal with it?” Xu Bail s face turned serious.
“I’ve already notified the Clear Sky School. The Clear Sky Mirror will be aimed directly at the south. If there’s an eruption, you need to stall for time,” the voice said.
“Okay, I’ll wait for your message.”
Before the communication ended, the voice said hesitantly, “There’s only one outcome if you come in contact with the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl.”
“I know..”
