Attacked by the Female Demon at the Beginning-Chapter 333 - A Year Away and Home Has Changed
Chapter 333: A Year Away and Home Has Changed
Jiang Hao looked at the empty mine.
He felt he had some fate with this mine.
Then, he drew a formation on the ground, aiming to connect with the Human Element Formation so he could leave smoothly.
This trip had been quite fruitful, and he also learned that polishing treasures could produce bubbles.
After returning, he could experiment with the Heavenly Saber.
Keeping it for too long wasn’t suitable, as it could easily be discovered by Hong Yuye.
Without hiding some trump cards, he didn’t feel secure.
Soon, he finished drawing the formation.
But when he tried to activate the formation to connect with the Human Element Formation, the formation suddenly became aware of his presence.
This surprised Jiang Hao.
“Connected?”
For a moment, Jiang Hao felt he could leave with just a thought.
“What’s going on?”
He checked the formation at his feet again, and it wasn’t activated.
Confused, he stepped out of the formation and even erased it.
But he could still connect to the Human Element Formation and even felt he could leave earlier.
Why was this happening? Jiang Hao was puzzled.
Soon, he thought of Tianbei Mountain.
If anything was abnormal, it was that he had left his name there.
“It seems leaving a name is like having a way out.”
If he encountered danger, he could exit from the Corpse Realm.
It felt a bit useless, as he only discovered this at the last moment.
Afterward, Jiang Hao redrew the formation and activated it again.
He pretended to connect with the Human Element Formation through the formation.
Then he just had to wait for the passage to open.
However, he was curious about what would happen if he continued to stay and whether he could enter through the Nine Rings of Heaven and Earth after leaving.
After some hesitation, he decided to leave a Sub-ring of Heaven and Earth here.
It wasn’t to sneak in during the closure but in case he couldn’t come back next time, he could use the sub-ring to sneak in.
If he couldn’t come back, he would have to find someone to help retrieve the sub-ring.
Including this one, he has already used four sub-rings.
He needs to be careful with them from now on.
Mainly because two were given to the rabbit and Xiao Li, essentially as their toys.
It’s a bit of a loss.
The Blood Tide Forest has been extremely quiet for the past few days.
By the last day, Jiang Hao could feel the portal opening.
At that moment, the two crowing chickens were staring at him.
Jiang Hao had no choice; he couldn’t possibly keep the crowing chickens.
He had the Thousand Li Teleportation Talisman and the Nine Rings of Heaven and Earth.
Each one had spatial fluctuations.
If he kept the crowing chickens, his comings and goings would be detected.
Wouldn’t that just be telling others that he had the ability to move through space?
After scattering some food, Jiang Hao responded to the Human Element Formation.
In an instant, he transformed into a beam of light that shot up into the sky.
At that moment, he saw countless beams of light soaring towards the heavens.
There were quite a few people in the Blood Tide Forest.
Occasionally, he could spot some acquaintances, like Gu Wen and the others.
Watching them, Jiang Hao felt lucky.
Cooperating with these people here made it possible for him to earn so many spirit stones.
Plus, he had quite a few spirit medicines, which he could slowly sell off.
He aimed to gather fifty thousand.
It wasn’t unusual for people to obtain one or two spirit medicines upon entering, as long as they weren’t too expensive.
Soon, Jiang Hao stepped out of the Human Element Formation.
When he set foot on the ground, he was already beside the Corpse Realm Flower.
Nearby were Senior Brother Mu Qi, as well as Gu Cheng and Fairy Qing You.
Gu Cheng and Mu Qi’s cultivation had only improved, nearing a breakthrough, while Fairy Qing You had ascended to Nascent Soul.
Gu Cheng continued with a smile, “It looks like everyone has had quite a harvest.”
“Just luck,” Mu Qi humbly said.
Jiang Hao kept silent, but he felt that Senior Brother Mu Qi could have ascended to Nascent Soul if it weren’t for the lack of time.
It had only been a year or two since he reached the perfect Golden Core; even with an opportunity, it wouldn’t be enough for a direct breakthrough.
Forcing it would lead to an unstable foundation.
Mu Qi had an ancient inheritance; there was no need to rush.
“Junior Brother, have you made a breakthrough?” Mu Qi asked kindly.
“Yes.”
Jiang Hao nodded and said, “I happened to encounter Tianbei Mountain.”
It was best to attribute the opportunity to Tianbei Mountain.
“If Junior Brother Han knew, he would surely work even harder,” Mu Qi said with a smile.
Jiang Hao: “...”
Poor Junior Brother Han.
“Now that everyone is fine, you guys keep an eye on the Corpse Realm Flower. We need to go back and report to the sect,” Fairy Qing You reminded them as she glanced at the Corpse Realm Flower.
“Once the Corpse Realm Flower’s portal closes, it will bear fruit and turn into a seed. Plant it a few months before the next opening.”
Mu Qi immediately bowed his head in thanks.
Although the people from the Corpse God Sect couldn’t take the seed out, they really didn’t know about this.
Otherwise, it would just cause unnecessary trouble.
After Gu Cheng and the others left, Jiang Hao also bid farewell to Mu Qi.
He noticed that Senior Sister Miao had arrived, and it would be somewhat impolite for him to stay.
Mu Qi nodded with a smile.
Although he had many questions, he did not ask.
“Jiang Junior Brother, you’re leaving so early?” Miao Tinglian greeted him with a smile.
Jiang Hao simply bowed as a greeting and then headed towards his residence.
After mining for so long, he was still not quite used to being back.
However, he needed to take out some spirit medicines and store them in the Spiritual Medicine Garden.
Cultivating spirit medicines to earn spirit stones also seemed normal.
After all, they weren’t high-grade spirit medicines, so not many people would be interested in him.
Not to mention, he was already at the perfect stage of Foundation Establishment, just one step away from Golden Core.
Those interested in these spirit medicines would have to weigh their own strength.
On the way back, he happened to see a dispirited man walking on the road.
Jiang Hao remembered him; it was Feng Yang from the cafeteria, to whom he paid thirty spirit stones every month.
“Junior Brother Feng?” Jiang Hao called out first.
The man came back to his senses and, seeing Jiang Hao, his eyes lit up. Jiang Hao knew that Xiao Li had caused trouble again.
“Senior Brother Jiang, you’re finally back?” Feng Yang said excitedly.
“Did Junior Sister Xiao Li cause trouble?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Not exactly,” Feng Yang said helplessly.
“It’s just that Junior Sister Xiao Li’s appetite seems to have grown. The previous food supplies are not enough for her, but if we don’t feed her, she easily causes trouble for the cafeteria. Over the past six months, it was me who helped to bear the burden. So...”
Seeing the expectant look in the other’s eyes, Jiang Hao quickly said:
“How many spirit stones were compensated? Such matters naturally shouldn’t cost Junior Brother.”
“About eight or nine more spirit stones each month.” Feng Yang didn’t dare to say too much, just mentioned his own expenses.
“Has it been half a year in total?”
After getting confirmation from the other party, Jiang Hao gave sixty spirit stones.
“That’s too much,” Feng Yang said.
“It’s only right,” Jiang Hao politely responded.
A few extra spirit stones were indeed appropriate.
After all, Xiao Li was an outer disciple, and the other party willingly took a loss for half a year, naturally because of his face.
Since it was on the way, Jiang Hao walked with Feng Yang for a while.
He also inquired about Xiao Li’s situation.
Aside from an increased appetite, Xiao Li hadn’t really done anything to anger others.
But there were definitely minor issues; she wasn’t one to stay out of trouble.
Jiang Hao also asked about the rabbit, and Feng Yang had nothing but good things to say about it.
Indeed, friends on the road respected Lord Rabbit.
With this, it was certain that the rabbit hadn’t encountered any mishaps due to the secret message.
After saying goodbye to Feng Yang, Jiang Hao returned to his courtyard.
But as soon as he entered, his brow furrowed.
He looked around and saw nothing extra.
“What’s going on? Why has the spiritual energy become so much richer?”
