Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1311: Up To His Two Brothers (2)

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“The influence of the Holy Master is going to strengthen. It’ll get even stronger If you provoke him, it will be quite troublesome,” Kendo said as a reminder.

Bi Zhu nodded. She made a mental note of it.

However, there were no people from the Heavenly Saint Sect in the Imperial City, so there wasn’t much to worry about.

Anyway, she was not going out.

As for the matter of the pearls, it was her fate to suffer.

What can be done about a bitter fate? She could only swallow it.

After all, she couldn’t do anything about it. No matter how difficult it was, she could not resist it.

She could just pretend not to know about it.

An eighteen-year-old girl, who thought too much, would only age faster.

…

In the courtyard, Jiang Hao finished tidying up and then went to the Spirit Herb Garden.

He felt much calmer.

The spirit beast floated down the river like usual.

The blue fish did not return, as always.

Sometimes, it was that way. When someone left, they never came back, just like Senior Brother Liu Xingchen.

He had not seen him for so many years. He did not know what he was up to.

He did not even know if Liu Xingchen was still alive.

The people of the Law Enforcement Hall said that Senior Brother Liu was in seclusion.

But people did not go into seclusion for so long.

‘If he doesn’t survive this calamity, I wonder if Liu Xingchen will regret what he did…’ Jiang Hao thought about it and felt that Liu Xingchen would not regret anything.

After all, every time he had appraised him, Liu Xingchen cared about nothing but having a good show to watch.

He had been in the sect all this time, and his cultivation had improved a lot.

He was in the late stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

Fewer people came to provoke him.

He had not had to kill anyone secretly in the sect in these years.

Therefore, there was nothing significant to see.

Maybe Liu Xingchen had left because of that.

The Great Era was about to arrive. He needed to cultivate well and become an immortal too.

When he arrived at the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao had not sat for long when he sensed something.

It was the aura of the Holy Master.

He looked up.

He saw a mark on Senior Sister Miao’s brow. It was a sign that the Holy Master was about to descend.

It was so faint that even Senior Sister Miao did not notice it.

Jiang Hao was puzzled.

The Holy Master knew that Senior Sister Miao was under his protection.

Why would he suddenly descend?

Could it be that his strength had increased significantly?

That was possible.

He would ask tonight.

“Junior Brother…” Miao Tinglian smiled at him. “I now know how to find you a suitable Dao partner.”

With that, she turned around to leave.

Jiang Hao was puzzled.

What was going on?

Instead of pestering him, she went straight out to find someone.

He did not think too much about it. He would ask the Holy Master tonight about her matter.

It just so happened that the divine soul he had was about to be exhausted.

In addition, the Heavenly Gate Dragon Blood Formation needed to fuse with the Mountain Sea Seal Formation.

It required a lot of divine souls.

As for the dragon blood, he would look for the Red Dragon.

This formation heavily relied on his two brothers.

He was not in a rush to meet the Red Dragon. He needed to go to the West anyway.

After obtaining the spirit stones that Gu Jin had talked about, he would head overseas.

After all, finding the Red Dragon required spending spirit stones. The other party did not seem to care about his reputation at all.

If he did care about his reputation, why would he go to the Jade Cloud Pavilion every day?

As for the Holy Master, he still wanted to visit him one day.

Since the other party was nearby, it was just right.

He stayed in the Spirit Herb Garden until evening.

He then went to Senior Sister Miao and Senior Brother Mu Qi’s house.

They had not returned yet.

So, he set up the Mountain Sea Seal around their place.

They returned at around midnight.

Jiang Hao pointed a finger from a distance.

Miao Tinglian, who was talking with Mu Qi, was stunned.

A light shone from her brow.

The familiar light startled them both.

Soon, the Holy Master’s power emerged.

A scholarly figure appeared.

The Holy Master’s figure quickly solidified as he looked down at the people below.

“Retreat.” Mu Qi did not hesitate and pulled Miao Tinglian away.

Jiang Hao entered the forest and looked up at the Holy Master, who was bathed in golden light.

He smiled. “Brother Li, you seem to have a lot of free time lately.”

“I’ve recently learned some new things. Would you like to give it a try?” asked the Holy Master.

Jiang Hao thought about it and nodded. “My wise brother, you once illuminated an era. The new things you’ve learned must be extraordinary. Your cultivation realm has even reached the realm of immortals. Truly impressive!”

“Then would you like to beg for mercy? I might let you go if you make me feel a little guilty.” The Holy Master laughed.

His aura surged, and he reached the middle stage of the Immortal Human Realm.

Moreover, a force of mountains and seas burst out.

It seemed like his aura could destroy everything.

“Impressive!” Jiang Hao took out the Heavenly Blade and chuckled. “It’s just right. I’ve also learned some new things and want to check them out.”

Miao Tinglain and Mu Qi watched nervously. They did not understand why the Holy Master was here.

Actually, Jiang Hao did not understand either.

But he did not ask.

First, he wanted to see how strong the Holy Master was. He had resonated with the powerful object sent by the Mountain Sea Sword Sect, so his aura had become much stronger.

It indeed seemed unusual.

Then, the two started fighting.

Within three strikes, the Heavenly Blade was at the Holy Master’s neck.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The two of them stared at each other.

“What?!” The Holy Master could not believe it. “You’re already at the middle stage?”

Jiang Hao nodded. “It’s all thanks to your help, dear brother. Also, I just sharpened my blade. I see that it accidentally scratched your neck. Maybe in your next life… Forget it! I’ll apologize to you in person another day and come bearing a gift.”

The Holy Master was speechless. ‘Are you apologizing, or am I?’ He thought

Soon, the consciousness of the Holy Master dissipated and left behind a divine soul.

It carried the power of the mountains and seas.

It was quite unique.

Perhaps it was very suitable to suppress the three pearls.

However, he felt a little strange when he received the divine soul.

Although he got the divine soul, it felt like something was missing.

Was it lacking a brotherly affection? Not really.

Was it not Brother Li?

It could not be helped. He had the divine soul, so there was indeed no need for him to go out.

The most important thing was to stay in the Heavenly Note Sect and become stronger.

Jiang Hao shook his head. Since things had come to this, he could only continue doing his own thing.

When everything was done, he would go find his brother.

With that, his figure disappeared.

In the courtyard, Jiang Hao put away the divine soul and continued to study the Black-Yellow Curse.

This time, he did not use any brush or ink.

Instead, he used his purple energy to form the words.

He wrote down the mysterious runes bit by bit.

The breeze around seemed to change with these symbols.

Jiang Hao had written these things countless times, but he never grasped the true essence.

Maybe he was not proficient enough yet.

Once it merged with his mind and spirit, he could truly understand the power of the Black-Yellow Curse.

Thus, time passed.

For a month, Jiang Hao continued to practice the Black-Yellow Curse in the courtyard every night.

He could not fully write the incantation.

Two months later, in the courtyard, Jiang Hao could write the Black-Yellow Curse in the air completely, but it disappeared within a few breaths.

Three months later, the Black-Yellow Curse lasted as long as it took for an incense stick to burn completely.

Four months later, the Black-Yellow Curse he wrote lasted for two whole hours.

Five months later, the Black-Yellow Curse did not disappear anymore. Jiang Hao stared at it in a daze.

Six months later, the Black-Yellow Curse began to merge into Jiang Hao’s body bit by bit.

Seven months later, more than half of the Black-Yellow Curse had fused into his body.

For a moment, Jiang Hao felt the world change.

But it was fleeting.

Eight months later, the Black-Yellow Curse had completely fused into his body.

The world seemed to shake before his eyes.

His soul was damaged, and he could not continue.

Nine months later, after consuming half of the Holy Master’s divine soul, Jiang Hao continued to infuse the Black-Yellow Curse into his body to comprehend the technique.

Ten months later, Jiang Hao maintained the change in the world.

He saw the colors of heaven and earth separate.

One side was yellow, and the other was black.

At that moment, the world seemed to interweave endlessly, and everything that connected could not be separated from the yellow and black.

Black and yellow were the colors of heaven and earth.

When he understood this, the Black-Yellow Curse burst forth with endless light.

Then, the world fell into desolation.

The Black-Yellow Curse emerged, and the sky changed color.

Cough!

After understanding this, Jiang Hao spat out a mouthful of blood.

His soul could not bear it anymore.

But he smiled.

He had succeeded!

He had mastered the Black-Yellow Curse!

In the past ten months, besides feeding the Longevity Fruit, he had diligently studied the Black-Yellow Curse.

It was already mid-November.

He had put in a vast amount of effort, but he had done it within the time frame.

It had been worth it!

With the Black-Yellow Curse, his strength had real substance.

After some more time, he might advance again.

Perhaps the late stage of the True Immortal Realm was not so out of reach.

But…

Did he have enough understanding of the Dao?

If not, even with full cultivation, he could not advance.

On the path of the Great Dao, if one’s comprehension was not good enough, it did not matter how good an opportunity one had. They would be unable to advance.

He would not go far.
