Chapter 426: In Need Of An Extraordinary Genius

It wasn’t surprising that The End of All Things was involved, given their goal of destruction.
The Bright Moon Sect should be able to handle them.
However, it was a bit troublesome because they were everywhere, and no one knew if they had already entered the Bright Moon Sect.
Anyone from any sect could potentially be a member of The End of All Things.
“It’s early June right now. You’ll need to go to the respective areas. I’m not entirely sure how long you’ll need to stay there, but it might tentatively be three months at most, ” Xing said.
“Three months without doing anything is a bit boring. Can we at least watch the Dao Conference?” asked Gui.
“You can use formations to teleport, or you can enter the Bright Moon Sect during regular times to watch the conference. The most crucial part is being there during the critical moments,” Xing said.
Jiang Hao nodded. This arrangement was convenient for him.
Getting there was easy. Moreover, he had the golden rings, so it was convenient. If Hong Yuye decided to lend a hand, it would be even easier.
“I think there might be quite a few people taking action this time. I’ve heard some rumors that suggest that the Bright Moon Sect is planning to seize others’ luck to complete their Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment. This is not good news and could potentially affect the Dao Conference,” Liu said.
“I’ve heard about it too, but many people tend to believe rumors rather than the confirmations provided by the sects,” Gui said.
Jiang Hao hadn’t heard of such rumors. Even if he had, he wouldn’t have believed them. They were just using the situation to their advantage. If there were any issues, Hong Yuye would have told him.
Besides, depriving others of their luck was not as easy and contradicted the principles of Heavenly Dao. It was impossible to complete the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment and become a person of great luck.
“That’s indeed what I’ve heard. It was probably spread by the Fallen Immortal Clan. If things get too serious, it might affect the success of the Heavenly Dao
Foundation Establishment. However, the current Sect Master of the Bright
Moon Sect has gone to the Clear Sky School. It seems he intends to invite
Shang An to assist with the Heavenly Dao. I believe the genius in the Corpse Realm could also accomplish this, but we don’t know where they are. Do any of you have any information about that?” Xing asked. He looked at Gui and Jiang Hao. They were the only ones who had entered the Corpse Realm.
Unfortunately, both of them shook their heads.
Jiang Hao knew that the extraordinary genius was probably Hong Yuye because he had been there with her. Since she was attending the conference, there should be no problem. There was no need for Shang An to be involved.
After discussing some more details about the Bright Moon Sect, Liu brought up something important.
“There’s something I need to remind you all of. Do you remember the changes in the seabed? It seems someone has entered it and discovered that it’s not about a treasure, but about someone breaking a seal. This happened several years ago. Also, the issue with the small island that we discussed earlier has been uncovered. It was someone from The End of All Things searching for something. Now, they are under attack. Although it was destroyed, it’s unclear whether they found what they were looking for.”
Jiang Hao grew concerned. “Earth Extreme Silent Pearl,” he said.
It made sense that they would search for the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl using the remnants of the Earth Extreme Heart Devouring Pearl.
This was a matter that Jiang Hao could only remind them of. He couldn’t get involved. However, it left others feeling concerned.
Jiang Hao’s words shocked everyone. He had mentioned it before too and told them that The End of All Things was looking for it. Gui was aghast.
“Looks like I need to pay more attention to this.” Liu sighed. This time, he was in trouble overseas.
After some more discussion, they ended the gathering. When Jiang Hao woke up, he saw the moonlight. Under the moonlight stood an elegant person with her hair swaying in the wind. There was also a faint fragrance in the air. When she turned around, her gaze was calm. She said, “Tell me everything.” Her eyes, even though calm, were still astonishing under the moonlight.
After taking a deep breath, Jiang Hao began to tell her everything about the Bright Moon Sect, the arrangements made by Xing, the rumors, and the sect’s response. Throughout his explanation, Hong Yuye remained silent.
When he mentioned the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl, she raised an eyebrow. “Do you think the pearl is overseas?”
“Isn’t it?” Jiang Hao was a bit surprised.
However, Hong Yuye didn’t respond. Instead, she smiled mysteriously.
For a moment, Jiang Hao felt uneasy but couldn’t get an answer. Helplessly, he continued to speak about other matters.
Apart from the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl, they didn’t need to pay much attention to anything else for now.
The Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment would require patience. They didn’t need to worry too much about what might happen. The Bright Moon Sect would handle it on their own. They could only do what was within their capabilities.
Once they had confirmed the situation, they would proceed to the Bright Moon Sect.
Ordinary people couldn’t approach the Bright Moon Sect easily, as it was covered by formations.
However, since the Dao Conference was happening, finding the Bright Moon
Sect was now easier. Nevertheless, not just anyone could enter the sect’s gates.
Before dawn, they arrived at the Bright Moon Sect’s gate. It was a passageway leading to the mountains. The moon cast silvery shadows.
Jiang Hao was astonished. It was indeed different from the gates of the Heavenly Note Sect.
At the mountain gate, there stood a woman. There was also a young man beside her who was drinking.
Jiang Hao was impressed. The auras of these two individuals seemed endless. It was like a vast ocean.
Their spiritual energy surged like tumultuous waves.
“May I ask if you two have an invitation?” asked the woman.
Jiang Hao took out the jade pendant given to him by the man yesterday. It had the words “Bright Moon” written on it, with sun and moon motifs surrounding it.
When the woman saw the jade pendant, she was somewhat surprised. She then gestured for the young man sitting on the ground to take a look.
With a glance, the young man instantly sobered up.
He then stood up and returned the jade pendant with both hands. “I apologize for not recognizing two esteemed seniors. Please forgive my rudeness.” “Please forgive us for any inconvenience,” said the woman in respect. Jiang Hao took back the jade pendant. He felt a little embarrassed.
The strength of these two individuals far exceeded his.
The reason he possessed this jade pendant was because of Hong Yuye, but he couldn’t reveal that.
After exchanging some polite words, he walked inside with Hong Yuye.
Watching the two depart, the woman let out a sigh of relief.
“Has the grand master come out of seclusion?” she asked.
“How should I know? Anyone who can obtain the ancestral jade pendant is not ordinary. But they seem to be from different stages of the Foundation Establishment Realm. I thought they were from some small sect and were here to join the event,” said the young man.
“Being gatekeepers is not an easy task.” The woman, Ning Yin, sighed.
“If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have been sentenced to a hundred years of gatekeeping,” said the drunk man, Ying Shuitian.
“What’s there to be scared of? Many seniors are still waiting in line behind us to take their turn as gatekeepers. It’s said that they’re scheduled for duty a thousand years from now. We got ahead of them, so we can be a bit proud,”
Ning Yin said.
Ying Shuitian was speechless.
When he thought about it, it made sense. Most juniors who weren’t strong enough didn’t get a chance at all. They didn’t have the same level of freedom as Ning Yin and Ying Shuitian, who could engage in conversation while on gatekeeping duty..
