Chapter 1130: What Did Jing Do?
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Saint Bandits were necessary to open the path to immortality.
They were needed mainly for Heavenly King Hai Luo.
If he could not recover his cultivation within the time frame they had, then there was no hope of becoming an immortal.
For a moment, Jiang Hao felt rather sentimental.
All these years, he had never expected that the person who could influence his ascension to immortality would be King Hai Luo.
Perhaps from the moment Jiang Hao saw him, he could not escape his fate.
Jiang Hao waited.
Gui might have some clues.
Sure enough, she did not disappoint him.
“I do know of one. Her status isn’t bad among them. Right now, she’s in a town in the Netherworld Palace.”
“What do you need in exchange, Friend Gui?”
Gui did not owe him anything, so he had to pay a price.
Gui thought for a moment. “One of the four great secret techniques of the Nine Extreme Corpse Dissolution Techniques. I know it might be difficult to get it, so I can do extra tasks for you.”
“Sure.” Jiang Hao nodded without hesitation.
That might indeed be difficult for others, but it was easy for him.
The Lawless Tower had Zhuang Yuzhen and Old Man Corpse Sea.
They might know of such techniques.
However, he had been to the Lawless Tower too many times in the past few weeks.
He would take a break from it for a few months.
He was not in a hurry. After all, he still had to find the Saint Bandits.
After that, there were no more transactions.
It seemed like everyone was preparing for something to happen.
After the transaction, it was time for a talk.
Jiang Hao sat quietly and waited for the others to speak first.
Usually, he remained silent during this segment.
“I heard that the North is in chaos,” Gui said.
“Chaos?” Xing was surprised. “What happened?”
“According to some rumors, a divine item has appeared in the North. But it disappeared,” said Gui with a sigh. “Some existences suppressed by divine items are gradually awakening. Some of the evil corpses in the Divine Corpse Sect have erupted. The internal strife in the Divine Corpse Sect is getting serious. The disciples with ill luck are being pursued. They are being pursued across provinces.”
Jiang Hao lowered his head in thought. ‘A divine item…’
Was it because of the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron? It was a divine item from the North.
This divine item could suppress the changes brought about by the three dangerous pearls. It was extraordinary.
It might have been suppressing some malevolent creature in the North. Since the cauldron was gone from the North, some balance must have been shaken in that area.
It was impossible for him to return the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron.
As for the things happening in the North, there was nothing he could do.
“What kind of divine item could have such a huge impact?” Liu was surprised.
Gui just shrugged.
The others in the gathering were also confused.
Everyone looked at Senior Dan Yuan.
“Didn’t you take the item, Gui?” asked Senior Dan Yuan.
Gui was stunned.
The others were also surprised.
Then, Gui seemed to remember something. Her eyes widened. She turned to look at Jing.
That thing she had delivered was the divine item?!
Everyone finally understood.
If they returned the item, who knew what would happen?
Jiang Hao sighed in his heart.
“The Mountain Sea Sword Sect has no way to solve it?” Zhang asked.
Gui shook her head. “I heard that for some reason, the Mountain Sea Sword Sect didn’t send out too many people to get involved. I think their situation isn’t too good either. However, there were some experts who did manage to get things under control, so it wasn’t complete chaos. The Divine Corpse Sect has internal problems of their own.”
Jiang Hao thought for a moment and said, “There is a Corpse Ancestor in the West. Maybe there is a way to solve it.”
Since he was a corpse, Lou Mantian should have a solution. But he might not go North.
“If I encounter anything on this trip, I will let you know,” Zhang said.
She was going out to look for the Heavenly Corpse Pill.
The possibility of encountering a Corpse Ancestor was almost close to none.
Liu looked at everyone. “Recently, something happened to the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart in the Abyssal Sea. There seems to be a force looming beneath. I don’t know if it’s related to the Dragon Clan. In addition, there’s a huge commotion in The End of All Things. Something big must have happened there. Perhaps it has something to do with the core person of The End of All Things.”
Then, he looked at Gui.
Gui shook her head. “I don’t know about that. Nothing major has happened in The South recently.”
Jiang Hao thought for a moment and said, “The core figure of The End of All Things almost returned.”
Everyone was shocked.
It was not that nothing had happened. Something had happened, but Jing had taken care of it.
Gui had a feeling that something was going on in the South, but she had no idea about it.
The South had betrayed her once again.
“How did you do it, Disciple Jing?” she asked curiously.
He was silent.
The others felt it was a pity he did not tell them.
They did not get the answer.
“The appearance of the light made the people of the immortal sect curious, but they didn’t find any clues after investigating. They’re not sure why it appeared,” Xing said.
“Are the Twelve Heavenly Kings still preparing to become immortals?” Zhang asked.
“They are, but there has been no progress so far,” said Xing.
Jiang Hao lowered his head. It seemed that Mu Longyu had not done anything yet.
“The Shangguan Clan is starting to show their talents. They’re very different from before,” Liu said. “I think they have a shot in the Great Era War.”
Jiang Hao was not surprised. They were from the Longevity Clan, after all.
After getting rid of Gu Changsheng’s influence, they were thriving.
After that, they talked about many things.
Jiang Hao listened quietly.
They talked about every big or small thing happening in the area, from the safety of the various regions to the knowledge of some individuals.
A certain female Heavenly King who used to frequent a sea area had disappeared.
It was rumored that she had fallen in love and eloped.
Jiang Hao felt that Hong Yuye might like hearing this story.
Unfortunately, they did not have the details.
Liu also knew very little about it.
He also heard that the people of the Great Thousand God Sect seemed to have accepted a mission and headed North.
There were also some immortal sect disciples surrounding the Abyssal Sea. No one knew what they were doing.
Some went to Chaos Stone Island.
In the end, the gathering ended with Senior Dan Yuan’s reminder.
Jiang Hao took out a book and began to note down the things he had learned.
There were not many important points this time.
Senior Dan Yuan was the same as before, except that a strange beast seemed to have appeared in the North.
This time, he had obtained news of the Saint Bandits, but he needed to find one of the four secret skills of the Nine Extreme Corpse Dissolution Technique for Gui.
Gui also wanted the Heavenly Corpse Pill, so she must have some connection with the people in the North. They were most probably from the Divine Corpse Sect.
Liu needed a Dragon Clan’s spell technique. It would be best if it was a physical technique.
Apart from that, the North was in chaos, and the Divine Corpse Sect was in trouble.
He wanted to write down the matter of the female Heavenly King.
Hong Yuye might not care about other things, but she might care about this.
Jiang Hao took out the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron and began to seal it.
He already knew about the Saint Bandits. He could go and receive the mission tomorrow from the Task Hall and leave.
So far, the Fallen Immortal Clan was still being suppressed, so he was safe.
However, he wasn’t sure when Mu Longyu would return. Otherwise, he could make a trip overseas.
Jiang Hao paused and took out the jade pendant.
It seemed that he could enter the warehouse without Mu Longyu’s presence.
Jiang Hao waited until dawn.
After receiving the mission, he waited for the night to fall.
Then, he disappeared.
He headed overseas. He wanted to check out Mi Lingyue’s warehouse.
