Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness - Chapter 1324 - Chapter 1324: At The Age Of Seventy-Five

Chapter 1324: At The Age Of Seventy-Five

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Hao returned, but only Little Wang noticed at first.

The spirit beast and Xiao Li were completely absorbed in watching the ants, especially Xiao Li, who found the ants fascinating.

She had many questions.

“Beast, why do you think Senior Brother keeps these ants that plant seeds?” Xiao Li asked.

The spirit beast did not answer.

Xiao Li continued, somewhat worried, “Look, they’re getting better at planting seeds. Will they start planting spirit herbs in the future? Will the Spirit Herb Garden be managed by these ants? What will happen to Bing Qing and the others if they have nothing to do?”

“Would you like some tea?” said a sudden voice from behind Xiao Li.

Xiao Li had been so startled that she was startled.

She even wanted to hide.

But soon she realized she had not done anything wrong, so she was not guilty at all.

“I’ll drink some.” Xiao Li turned to look at Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao sat under the Immortal Peach Tree and began to brew some tea.

It was a familiar routine.

Over the years, if he had learned anything unrelated to cultivation, it was probably making tea.

Sometimes, cultivation was important, but making tea was even more crucial.

It could very well determine whether he could live peacefully.

He poured a cup for Xiao Li and asked her to try it.

The tea leaves were not cheap. They cost more than ninety spirit stones per pack.

After taking a sip, Xiao Li’s eyes narrowed. “It’s bitter. Not good”

She put down the teacup.

Jiang Hao nodded.

Sometimes, the tea tasted bitter, much like some situations one encountered in life.

Jiang Hao asked the spirit beast to try again.

“Master, I’m a spirit beast. I don’t know how to drink tea,” said the spirit beast seriously.

‘Then, why do you often eat tea leaves?’ Jiang Hao thought but did not say it aloud.

He knew that the spirit beast had eaten the September Spring tea leaves before.

While eating it, it even claimed that the spiritual energy from the tea leaves respected him.

Since neither was interested in drinking tea, Jiang Hao let them play on their own.

As for him, he walked to the Longevity Fruit.

This time he observed more intently than before.

The ants first planted seeds, then watered and tended to them. As time passed, the trees grew strong, but the ants grew weaker.

In the end, they fell by the tree and became nourishment themselves.

New fruits ripened, and new ants were born.

“Is there any meaning in repeating this?” Jiang Hao was puzzled.

He wanted to walk a path entirely on his own. He preferred a path that did not require cycles or borrowing from others’ paths. Only then could he continue to live and not get swept into the storms of karma.

The Longevity Fruit seemed to be different from before, but the difference was not that significant.

When it was about time, Jiang Hao went to the outer sect to continue teaching.

Back then, he was just an ordinary disciple. But he had become someone countless people looked up to.

He had become a True Disciple of the Cliff of Broken Hearts and a candidate for the seat of the top disciple.

Passing by the cafeteria of the Cliff of Broken Hearts, he saw Junior Brother Feng Yang.

He was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Back then, Jiang Hao had been in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm when he met Feng Yang, who was in the early stage.

Decades had passed since then.

He was at the late stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm, while the other party was at the perfected Foundation Establishment Realm.

“Greetings, Senior Brother Jiang.” Feng Yang bowed respectfully.

He showed signs of aging. He was not as youthful as before.

“How are you, Junior Brother Feng?” Jiang Hao asked.

Back then, many seniors overshadowed him, and he could not make any decisions in the Cliff of Broken Hearts.

“Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother. I’m fine,” Feng Yang said.

He did not dare to show any disrespect.

“Did Xiao Li cause any trouble lately?” Jiang Hao asked.

“No, she hasn’t,” said Feng Yang hesitantly.

“Then she has.” Jiang Hao had not paid attention in a long time. Today, he asked as he passed by.

Unexpectedly, she had caused trouble for the cafeteria again.

Feng Yang was quite nervous and quickly said, “It’s not a big problem. Maybe Senior Sister Xiao Li is growing rapidly, so she has to eat more.”

‘Senior Sister?’ Jiang Hao thought.

Indeed, Xiao Li had reached the Golden Core Realm, while Feng Yang was only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Jiang Hao pondered for a moment before handing over 10,000 spirit stones to the other party.

Jiang Hao thought for a moment and then handed Feng Yang ten thousand spirit stones.

Upon sensing the spirit stones, Feng Yang was stunned.

“Don’t be so surprised, Junior Brother,” he said. “Xiao Li left this with me. Please accept it as her food expenses.”

Back then, he had received thirty spirit stones.

Decades later, he received ten thousand.

Time ages a person, but it also brings plenty of spirit stones.

Outside the sect, the new batch of disciples had already attended lectures from the other two instructors.

Jiang Hao was not in a hurry to teach anything but observed and found that there were still some spies left.

They were from Azure Mountain and the Blackheaven Sect.

Indeed, the surrounding sects had set their sights here.

Jiang Hao remembered each one. If they all planned to collaborate during the Great Era, he would need to stop them.

The destruction of the Heavenly Note Sect would not do him any harm. It would reduce the pressure on the sect as much as possible.

Days passed by, and Jiang Hao did not miss anything.

He guided the newcomers, took care of the Spirit Herb Garden, explained the cultivation realms to Cheng Chou, watered the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, fed the Longevity Fruit, and kept an eye on it.

Of course, he was also studying fist and spear techniques.

He often used the halberd, and he felt that it could be used with the Nine Forms of the Wandering Dragon.

In addition, the attack from the halberd was extremely powerful.

The application of the Mountain Sea Seal added a significant boost to it.

If not now, it could be used later in the brand-new era.

Although Smiling San Sheng was related to Gu Jin today, not many people knew about his existence.

It could divert some people’s attention.

It might also provide an answer for those who were hesitant.

Some doubted Smiling San Sheng but were unsure.

Time passed quickly.

Jiang Hao left the courtyard. Spring passed, autumn came, and went again.

Jiang Hao returned to his courtyard.

At this moment, he was like an ordinary person with his divine light restrained.

A year and a half passed.

He checked his interface.

[Name: Jiang Hao]

[Age: 75]

[Cultivation: Middle Stage of the True Immortal Realm]

[Cultivation Method: Heavenly Sound Hundred Revolutions, Hong Meng Heart Sutra]

[Divine Ability: Nine Revolutions Death Substitution (unique), Daily Appraisal, Clear and Pure Heart, Reappearance of Hidden Spirit, Divine Might, Revival of Withered Tree, Heavenly Cauldron, Indestructible Vajra, Myriad Nature Forest]

[Cultivation: 100/100 (can be cultivated)]

In the hot July weather, Jiang Hao sat under the peach tree and poured himself a cup of tea.

He felt quite sentimental.

At seventy years old, he had stepped onto the immortal path and achieved immortality. He had become the first of his time.

But in less than a month, he was ambushed by the Five Demons and severely injured. He had barely managed to flee.

The number one in history had become a joke.

Many people overseas had their eyes on him.

He was now seventy-five years old.

Five years after becoming an immortal, he planned to break through to the late stage of the True Immortal Realm.

“If I succeed, would I be considered a genius?”

Jiang Hao murmured to himself while sipping his tea.

Reaching this level in the immortal realm after just five years of becoming an immortal was something only a few achieved.

Unfortunately, as a late-stage True Immortal, he would still be considered weak. In front of those seniors who had lived for numerous years, he would be like a child.

However, this was his limit.

It had been more than five years, and the Great Era was about to arrive.

Even he could clearly sense the changes in the world.

If he did not go overseas at this time, there would be no more opportunities to reclaim the Immortal Mountain Sea Shield from the Five Demons.

Jiang Hao gently put down the teacup.

“Having prepared for so many years, it’s time to strive for the late stage. If my understanding of the Dao is sufficient, I will succeed this time.”
