Were they calling him out?
Jiang Hao was surprised. They wouldn’t have selected him under normal circumstances, so why had they selected him?
“Who else is there besides me?” he asked.
“Junior Sister Xiao Li and Senior Brother Han Ming are in the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core category. However, Senior Brother Han Ming is not in the sect. I don’t know if he will be back in time,” Cheng Chou said.
‘Xiao Li was there too?’ Jiang Hao was puzzled.
It was only natural for Han Ming to be selected, but why Xiao Li?
She didn’t listen to others teaching her cultivation. Moreover, her cultivation realm had not improved for a long time. What was she going to do?
Was she trying to cause trouble?
“Who else?” Jiang Hao asked.
Cheng Chou mentioned the names of a few more people.
Strangely, they weren’t that talented.
Jiang Hao didn’t understand.
These people usually functioned independently. They were all troublemakers.
What did the sect mean by this?
He really couldn’t understand.
Jiang Hao didn’t think too much about it. After all, he would have to wait until October to go to the mines.
There were still nine months left.
That was good too. He didn’t have to participate in the competition.
Those who participated had to be ranked accordingly.
When the time came, he would just brush it off.
After that, the preparations for the competition began, and every branch was bustling with activity.
They wanted to seize this opportunity.
Jiang Hao didn’t pay any attention to it. He continued to take care of the spirit herbs and study the Myriad Nature Forest.
He felt that this divine ability was very strange.
He had always wanted to attack the Nine Nether, but he had given up.
Around early February, Jiang Hao asked Cheng Chou to call Duanmu Yan.
When she saw the spirit herbs that had already sprouted, she was silent.
She looked at Jiang Hao in shock. “Junior Brother, are you sure you aren’t good at refining pills? Perhaps you really are a genius,” Duanmu Yan said.
If someone had such great talent in botany, they were usually good at refining pills.
It was such a waste for such a person not to try it.
If he was not careful, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
It was still early. Many times, pill refinement relied on a type of spiritual energy.
If one didn’t master this spiritual energy, it would disappear over time.
Jiang Hao nodded and thanked her. He really didn’t have any such intentions.
He knew very well why he had planted them.
The only thing he had some talent in was probably talisman-making.
As for alchemy, it was too time-consuming, and he wasn’t interested.
He wanted to focus on increasing his cultivation realm.
“Junior Brother, your ability is more powerful than I thought. I really didn’t expect this,” Duanmu Yan said. “Luckily, I didn’t look past you.”
Jiang Hao nodded.
He thanked Senior Sister Duanmu. If it weren’t for her superior-grade spirit herb seeds, he wouldn’t have been able to advance so quickly.
Although it seemed like a pity that he had spent tens of thousands of spirit stones on them, others would not understand what he had earned.
“I don’t have any more spirit herb seeds right now. If I do, can I find you to plant them?” Duanmu Yan asked.
Jiang Hao thought for a moment. “Of course, Senior Sister. I can do it if I am free.”
After he advanced, high-grade spirit herb seeds might not be of much use to him.
He didn’t even know if he could plant them in the future.
After seeing her off, Jiang Hao glanced at Senior Sister Ye’s spirit herbs.
That would take another three months.
Who knew how many bubbles there would be?
Days passed, and Jiang Hao followed his daily routine.
Every day, he took care of the spirit herbs, made talismans, and studied the nameless manual.
Occasionally, he would explain the cultivation issues to Cheng Chou.
During that time, he went to the Snow Lotus Pavilion and asked for September Spring.
He realized that it was already gone.
Even the Red Azure tea was almost finished.
Fortunately, he had a lot of good tea on him. It should be able to last ten years.
Every day, Jiang Hao checked the Immortal Peach Tree. The sapling came up to his knees. In a few days, it came up to his waist. And then, in the blink of an eye, it was as tall.
Later, it was taller than the surrounding walls.
Days went by, and it began to flower.
It was already the middle of May when Senior Sister Ye’s spirit herbs also sprouted.
When Jiang Hao arrived, he obtained twenty blue bubbles.
This meant that these spirit herbs were extraordinary.
However, it also consumed the most spirit stones.
He only had 260,000 spirit stones left.
It was more than 10,000 spirit stones than he had expected.
The reason was that at the start of the competition, everyone was worried that they would fight with other sects.
The price of goods rose too quickly.
Although more people bought talismans, the profits were far less than his expenses.
260,000 spirit stones were still a lot. It might not be as much as 400,000, but still, it was a lot.
There was no need to worry about running out of spirit stones.
When the seeds sprouted, Jiang Hao didn’t rush to inform Senior Sister Lian Qin.
He continued to take care of the spirit herbs and waited for Cheng Chou.
In the evening, the lecture ended.
There were quite a few people who left behind their blood.
After carefully putting them away, Jiang Hao returned to his courtyard.
He sat by the table and used the Universe in a Palm to seal the blood.
That ability was very useful. He hadn’t used many divine abilities lately because he hadn’t needed to fight with anyone.
It was necessary to use them.
“You are cultivating the Blood Wish Path?” asked a voice from behind.
Jiang Hao turned and saw a figure in a red and white dress. She walked over and sat opposite him.
“Senior…” He stood up and bowed. “Some juniors assume I cultivate that path, so they always leave their blood behind whenever I help them with their cultivation.”
“If you really cultivated the Blood Wish Path, you might be able to overturn everyone’s assumption regarding that path,” said Hong Yuye.
It was simply a suggestion.
The blood was left behind voluntarily by others. He had never asked for it.
The people who cultivated Blood Wish Path used blood by burning their lifeforce because the blood needed to be pure.
“Senior, you must be joking. I feel like people’s thinking often changes after cultivating that kind of path,” said Jiang Hao.
“Was there a gathering lately?” Hong Yuye looked at the peach tree and asked.
Jiang Hao nodded. “Senior, have you heard of a divine ability that can strip off a part of everything?”
“What divine ability?” Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao.
“Myriad Nature Forest,” Jiang Hao said.
Hong Yuye was silent for a moment. Then, she looked at Jiang Hao. “What do you plan to do with that divine ability?”
“Is it possible to use it on the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl?” Jiang Hao took out the pearl and asked.
He had already made an excuse if she asked how he got that ability. But she hadn’t asked.
Hong Yuye laughed. She looked at Jiang Hao teasingly.
“Do you think you’ve lived too long already? You don’t want to live any longer?”
Jiang Hao wasn’t surprised. He had wanted to ask anyway.
“No one who peeks into the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl survives. And those who want to clone it… Well, what kind of cultivation realm do you need to be able to withstand that kind of disaster?” Hong Yuye asked.
“Then… What about using it on the Nine Nether?” Jiang Hao took out the Nine Nether.
Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao. For a moment, she couldn’t tell if this person was being bold or stupid.
