“Is this what you meant by advising me not to be too confident?” Nangong Yue saw Jiang Hao leaving and began to mock the Heavenly King.
“You are somewhat similar to the previous cell number three captive, but you are slightly better. She waved at him. However, you are not like me. Who dares to make me sit down and speak softly now? No one!” said Hai Luo.
Then, he looked up at the sky in desolation.
“It’s cold at the top, and no one in the world understands me anymore.”
“Little scum, have you ever noticed why your master didn’t wave at you?” Zhuang Yuzhen asked while drinking wine and eating meat.
This was what Jiang Hao had brought for him.
“Do you really think waving at me is effective? Everything was an act I put on. Now that I’m not pretending anymore, I’m disappointed.” Said the Heavenly King.
“The reason your master didn’t wave at you is because the people of the Lawless Tower don’t value you enough. You still have a secret, right? Ask the people from the Lawless Tower and see if they are interested. If they have no way to pry it out of you, they will send your master to you. That’s when you’ll get what you want,” said Zhuang Yuzhen.
Nangong Yue couldn’t understand these people, but she didn’t care.
Jiang Hao returned to the sect and felt somewhat strange.
He had just checked the Heaven Lock Technique.
None of the theories were correct.
How could the translated text be inaccurate?
‘What’s the problem exactly? Is there a problem with the stored Heaven Lock, or is there a problem with the Lawless Tower?’
Under normal circumstances, Heaven Lock couldn’t be viewed at all.
That is, the Heaven Lock Technique itself was not the problem.
He didn’t think too much about it. It was better to have a flawed translation than nothing at all. He could continue to drag it out.
In the following days, Jiang Hao would rest and then go to the Lawless Tower.
Except for the first day when he sat in front of cell number three, he always sat across from Zhuang Yuzhen after that.
He wanted to try to overcome the influence of the Lawless Tower.
For some reason, he even felt a storm and his mind was restless.
The calmer he was, the more chaotic he felt.
But even so, he didn’t stop trying to harmonize with the aura of the Lawless Tower.
It was just that he couldn’t find a suitable method.
He could only gradually get used to it, calm down, and communicate with it. Learning the Heaven Lock Technique was more troublesome and arduous than he had expected.
In mid-October, the sect began recruiting disciples.
Jiang Hao hadn’t seen any new disciples, but Nan Yushu and the others had seen them.
“There’s actually someone with exceptional talent. Besides this one, there’s something else we need to pay attention to.” Nan Yushu looked at the list.
“Who is it?” Kong Hu asked.
Jiang Hao was also listening. He was also interested in the new disciples, as it was easy to spot undercover agents.
Some undercover agents weren’t worth worrying about, but some needed attention.
The End of All Things, the Great Thousand God Sect, the Blackheaven Sect, the Heavenly Saint Sect, etc. all needed to be watched carefully.
After all, many people came for the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.
“It’s someone with a relatively advanced cultivation realm,” Nan Yushu said as she looked at the list.
“I heard that he wants to join the sect. Now that the people from the Flowing Waterfall have left, he plans to be an outer sect’s elder.”
Jiang Hao was surprised. ‘He would be an elder right from the start?’
Although it was only an outer sect’s elder, the status and position were still high.
“What’s his cultivation realm?” Xia Cun asked curiously.
An outer sect’s elder was better than even inner sect disciples.
“I don’t know, but we might see soon,” Nan Yushu said.
Soon, two people flew over from a distance.
Leading the way was an old man with an elegant demeanor, a youthful appearance, and white hair. He exuded an extraordinary aura.
Behind him was a middle-aged man. He was wearing an eight-trigram robe with a “calculate” inscription on the front.
‘Fortune teller?’ That was Jiang Hao’s first thought.
But the person’s aura was stronger than his own, and it surpassed the Soul Ascension Realm.
He appraised the person.
He didn’t feel safe with new powerful individuals entering the sect. He needed to confirm it.
Soon, the feedback came.
[Disciple Hai Ming: One of the spiritual avatars of Feng Hua from the Great Thousand God Sect. At the early stage of the Return to Void Realm. He is undercover in the Heavenly Note Sect to investigate the reason for Dan Qingzi’s death. Would be a bonus if he could also learn about the limits of the Heavenly
Just as the two people entered on flying swords, Jiang Hao read the feedback.
There was nothing else worth paying attention to, but Feng Hua’s name made him pause.
After searching for Feng Hua for so long, he unexpectedly came to the Heavenly Note Sect.
Hong Yuye’s mission wouldn’t be delayed any longer.
After some time, he would be able to catch up, but the problem was that the memories of the spiritual avatars of Feng Hua were shared. Without cutting them off, he couldn’t take action.
Jiang Hao calmed himself.
He needed to figure out how to accelerate the collection of the bubbles.
In addition to all this, he needed to figure out a way to sever the shared memories.
He could ask Hong Yuye. If she didn’t visit him, he could ask Senior Dan Yuan.
He would know how to do it.
These things couldn’t be rushed. Currently, the priority was to learn the Heaven Lock Technique.
He had a feeling that learning it could be surprisingly beneficial to him.
Later that night, Jiang Hao went to the Lawless Tower.
Zhuang Yuzhen and the others were a bit surprised at first to see Jiang Hao visiting the tower frequently, but they got used to it as time went on, especially since he said and did nothing. He just sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and meditated.
It lasted for a long time.
Zhuang Yuzhen realized that Jiang Hao wanted to harmonize with the Lawless Tower.
However, his state of mind wasn’t sufficient, and his control over his spiritual energy was lacking.
On the contrary, it would cause the ripples to intensify.
Around early November, Jiang Hao visited every day, but there was still no significant progress.
“I’ve said it before. Some things, no matter how hard you try for a lifetime, it’s useless.” Nangong Yue sneered. “This Golden Core cultivator has been trying so hard for so long. He hasn’t progressed. Instead, he has been regressing. Look at the surrounding fluctuations. If this continues, he’s at least on the verge of losing control and risking demonic possession.”
The Heavenly King and Zhuang Yuzhen were also surprised. They thought Jiang Hao would make progress step by step, but they never expected him to regress.
Was the legend about to shatter?
Although he hadn’t done anything yet, they couldn’t help but feel that the legend was not unbeatable.
At the same time, Jiang Hao felt that he was in the midst of a storm.
He didn’t know when it started, but he felt a storm forming around him. It was getting stronger each time, and he had initially tried to suppress it, but he gave up.
He let the storm brew.
Sometimes he would suspect that his restless mind caused the storm. He had tried hard and attempted to control it.
Finally, he understood something: the more he cared, the more his mind would stir.
What he needed to do now was not to stop it but to observe the changes.
He let the storm rage. He let it roam freely.
Suddenly, Jiang Hao felt a gust of wind as if he had found a new world within the storm.
A path appeared before him.
He could glimpse the light in the sky ahead.
The Heavenly King, who was watching Jiang Hao intently, suddenly felt a breeze.
The others felt it too.
They all noticed the source.
The wind came from Jiang Hao.
However, in the blink of an eye, the wind, like a great hand in the world, calmed all storms.
In an instant, the storm disappeared.
What appeared before everyone was tranquility, peace, and calmness.
The sudden transformation stunned Zhuang Yuzhen and Nangong Yue.
They didn’t even know what had just happened. How did everything suddenly calm down?
“Look at how surprised you all are. Truly foolish. Did you see me being surprised and astonished? I saw through everything,” the Heavenly King said mockingly. “I told you before. Don’t be overconfident.”
Nangong Yue was speechless.
If she could leave, she would definitely send this Heavenly King on his way..
