Chapter 483: Immortal’s Live Forever. Why Would They Care About A Partner?
Dan Qingzi had been waiting in the Lawless Tower all this time.
He was left with only Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation now.
Now, he saw a glimmer of hope. He wouldn’t have to wait much longer to die.
However, he occasionally called some colorful names at the people passing by.
The Heavenly Note Sect had broken their promise again. They didn’t kill Jiang Hao, and this time they didn’t even bother to pretend.
They just made him wait.
But that was fine. He would wait. When the time came, he would take matters into his own hands.
There would be an opportunity.
While Dan Qingzi was still planning, Baizhi had already arrived at the highest point of the Heavenly Note Sect.
The Hundred Flowers Lake was where the Sect Master lived, and others couldn’t enter even if they visited the place unless they could deceive the Sect Master’s perception.
As she ascended, she saw a red figure in the pavilion.
She seemed to be at the center of everything. She exerted an invisible pressure on the newcomer.
“Sect Master.”
Baizhi bowed respectfully.
Hong Yuye seemed to come back to her senses.
She turned and glanced at her. “Have you found out something else?”
“I have found out a lot.” Baizhi nodded. “In the past few days, Dan Qingzi from Azure Mountain revealed much information, like who commissioned him, and so on.”
“Oh?” Hong Yuye seemed interested.
“He admitted that the reason Azure Mountain took action was mostly because of that other person, and their main purpose was to probe the limits of our sect. His intention was to force the Sect Master to take action,” said Baizhi. “According to what he said, this was not his original intention, but someone put him up to it. The person who commissioned him is from the Great Thousand God Sect named Feng Hua. In the past few days, I have looked into the information about the Great Thousand God Sect, and it seems that there is no such person there. We are still investigating. Besides wanting to test the limits of the sect, this person seems to want to find out more about the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower. However, Dan Qingzi does not know the people from the Great Thousand God Sect who came before, as well as those from Azure Mountain who had contact with outsiders.”
“Can he still contact Feng Hua?” Hong Yuye asked.
“He said he can’t anymore, but he gave me a coded message. That person might have received the news that Dan Qingzi was captured. It’s unlikely that the coded message will be a success. We haven’t tested it yet. We fear that it might startle him.” Baizhi then went on to outline the follow-up plans. “For now, we have given up monitoring Dan Qingzi and let his cultivation realm be absorbed in the tower.”
Hong Yuye was surprised. “What’s your plan?”
Baizhi lowered her head and said earnestly, “He is very cooperative and doesn’t take his cultivation seriously. Moreover, he insists that Jiang Hao must die. In my opinion, he must have something to rely on and a method of liberation. So, we are waiting for him to take action. The people are ready, and with the cooperation of a Sky Origin Realm cultivator, even if he escapes back to Azure Mountain, it will be easy to find him. According to my speculation, his method of release might be related to the Great Thousand Avatar. There are traces of the Great Thousand Avatar Technique on him. If everything goes smoothly, we will find him and observe him in secret.”
Hong Yuye nodded. “And Jiang Hao?”
“There have been no new discoveries for the time being. The only change is that he has advanced to the Golden Core Realm.” Baizhi was not surprised. “The advancement happened after the team returned from the Bright Moon Sect when most people’s attention was diverted. This may be the opportunity he was looking for.”
Before going out, Baizhi had already guessed that Jiang Hao was about to advance and that he was waiting for a good opportunity. There were currently no clues about the person behind him, so she didn’t dare to mention it.
After that, she reported other matters.
The sect was currently recuperating, so there wouldn’t be any major events for the time being.
The only things to be concerned about were the mines and the Sea Fog Cave.
The Sea Fog Cave might cause some waves overseas.
The appearance of disciples from their sect in the sea might attract some curious people.
This was easily solvable.
There was no need to go all out.
At Azure Mountain, a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator looked at Jiang Hao.
“A wandering cultivator?” she asked.
She was an inner disciple of Azure Mountain and was responsible for recruiting new disciples this time.
“Yes, a wandering cultivator.” Jiang Hao nodded.
In order to safely enter Azure Mountain, he chose to join the sect under the identity of a wandering cultivator.
Both his appearance and name had been changed.
Whether it was Azure Mountain or Heavenly Note Sect, they usually recruited Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators when accepting new disciples.
The highest was usually the Golden Core Realm.
No one could see his real cultivation realm, which was at the middle stage of the Soul Ascension Realm.
It made things much easier.
“Cultivation realm?” the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator asked. “I’m at the ninth stage of Lifeblood Refinement Realm,” Jiang Hao said.
“Your name?”
“Jiang Tian. ” “Age?”
“Thirty-one.”
“Thirty-one at the ninth stage of Lifeblood Refinement Realm?” The Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator frowned. But she found this quite normal.
The reason the wandering cultivator joined their sect was probably to obtain Foundation Establishment Pills through the sect’s resources. It would give him hope to advance to the Foundation Establishment Realm. Achieving Foundation Establishment Realm in one’s thirties was quite ordinary.
“Wait over there,” said the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.
Later, he obtained a token to enter the trial.
If he failed, he wouldn’t be able to join the sect.
Jiang Hao was unconcerned about this. As expected, everything went smoothly, and he entered Azure Mountain with a mediocre result.
It was different from the Heavenly Note Sect in the sense that the various branches’ True Disciples would pick a portion of the disciples and send the rest to the outer sect.
Jiang Hao deliberately made his aura very low, so he was successfully sent to the outer sect.
This way, no one would be watching him.
That night, he figured out where the tasks were issued.
The next day, he took on a task. He accepted a task that rewarded Foundation Establishment Pills.
It was exceptionally difficult to complete.
Most likely, eight or nine out of ten would die outside, and this was what he wanted.
Today was the fourth day, and he had to go back tomorrow.
After that, he would disappear from Azure Mountain.
It was unlikely anyone would care about a wandering cultivator who came for Foundation Establishment Pills.
Even if someone remembered him, they would probably just sigh and say, “He came for Foundation Establishment Pills but died for it.”
After accepting the task, Jiang Hao returned to his residence and did not hurry to go to the back of the mountain.
He needed to understand the situation there first.
He spent a spirit stone to learn a lot from a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.
He asked about the person he was actually there for, and the person volunteered the information.
He also found out many gossips, like the second top disciple liking the first.
Many cultivators went to the back of the mountain.
However, there was one place they wouldn’t approach, and that was the Green Tea Tree. It was said that approaching it would trigger a curse.
“What kind of curse is it?” Jiang Hao was genuinely curious. “It is said that if couples go there, their relationship would suffer.”
“What if someone isn’t in a relationship?”
“Then, they wouldn’t be able to find anyone in their lives.”
Jiang Hao was quite surprised. Why would there be such rumors in Azure Mountain?
The world was vast, and immortals lived long lives.
Why would someone care so much about finding a partner?
After confirming that most disciples could go to the back of the mountain, he was no longer worried.
In the afternoon, Jiang Hao arrived at the back of the mountain.
He buried a ring there and then left the sect to complete the task.
After that, he returned to the back of the mountain through the ring.
On the way, he did encounter some people who seemed close to each other.
But he ignored them.
He needed to find out where the Green Tea Tree was and see how much strength the avatar left by Dan Qingzi had.
Dan Qingzi’s true cultivation realm was definitely far beyond the Soul Ascension Realm. His avatar definitely wasn’t weak.
‘It’s been four days already. He must be leaving the Lawless Tower soon. I need to speed things up..’
