Chapter 333 - 333: Home Has Changed After Being Away For A Year
Jiang Hao looked at the deserted mine.
He felt a certain connection with this mine.
Then, he drew a formation on the ground to communicate with the Human Yuan Formation, so that he could leave without any problems.
This time, he had gained a lot from this trip. He had even discovered that cleaning or wiping ancient artifacts could produce bubbles.
After returning, he could use his Primordial Heavenly Blade to conduct experiments.
He couldn’t leave these artifacts lying around for too long, as it would be easy for Hong Yuye to find out.
He didn’t feel secure without having some hidden cards.
Soon, he finished drawing the formation.
However, when he tried to activate the formation to connect with the Human Yuan Formation, the formation suddenly sensed his presence. This surprised Jiang Hao.
‘Is it already connected?’
For a moment, Jiang Hao felt that he only needed a thought to connect to the formation.
‘What’s going on?’
He checked the formation under his feet again, but it wasn’t activated.
Puzzled, he erased it.
However, he could still connect with the Human Yuan Formation and felt that he could leave ahead of time.
‘How is this possible?’ Jiang Hao was puzzled.
He quickly thought of Heavenly Stele Mountain.
This was definitely because he had left his mark on heavenly Stele Mountain. ‘It seems that leaving a mark is equivalent to securing a way out.’
If he encountered danger, he could leave the Corpse Realm immediately. He felt that it was a little useless because he had discovered this only at the end.
Jiang Hao drew the formation again and activated it once more. He pretended that he was using the formation to connect with the Human Yuan Formation.
Then, he waited for the passage to open.
He was curious about what would happen if he stayed here.
Jiang Hao wondered if he could use the golden rings to leave the Corpse Realm.
After hesitating for a moment, he left a ring in the Corpse Realm. He wanted a way to sneak into the Corpse Realm in the future.
If he couldn’t enter, he would have to ask someone for help to retrieve the ring.
He had already used four rings. He needed to be careful when using them.
Jiang Hao had given some rings to Xiao Li and the spirit beast uselessly. He regretted it a little.
In the following days, the Blood Tide Forest was exceptionally quiet.
On the last day, Jiang Hao felt that the passage was about to open.
At this time, the two roosters kept staring at him.
Jiang Hao felt helpless. He couldn’t possibly raise the roosters.
He had the Thousand Miles Teleportation Talisman and the golden rings. Each of them had spatial fluctuations.
If he kept the roosters, he would be discovered.
He scattered some food, responded to the Human Yuan Formation, turned into a beam of light, and soared into the sky.
At this moment, he saw countless beams of light shooting toward the horizon. Many people were in the Blood Tide Forest.
Occasionally, he could see some familiar faces, such as Gu Wen and the others.
Jiang Hao felt that he was lucky to have gotten a chance to cooperate with these people. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have earned so many spirit stones. And there were also quite a few spirit herbs. He could still sell some of them.
He could accumulate up to fifty thousand.
Soon, Jiang Hao left the Human Yuan Formation.
When he stepped out, he was beside the Corpse Realm Flower.
Mu Qi and Gu Cheng and Qing You were also nearby.
Gu Cheng and Mu Qi’s cultivation was about to break through. Qing You had advanced to the Primordial Spirit Realm.
Gu Cheng smiled. “It seems that everyone has gained quite a bit from the trip.”
“I was just lucky,” Mu Qi said.
Jiang Hao lowered his head and didn’t say anything.
However, he felt that Mu Qi’s breakthrough was only held back because there wasn’t much time. Otherwise, he could have advanced to the Primordial Spirit Realm.
It had only been a year since he broke through to the peak of the Golden Core Realm
Mu Qi had an ancient inheritance, so there was no need to rush.
“You’ve broken through, Junior Brother Jiang?” Mu Qi asked politely.
“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded. “I encountered Heavenly Stele Mountain.”
“If Junior Brother Han knew about this, he would definitely work harder.” Mu Qi chuckled.
Jiang Hao was speechless. ‘Poor Junior Brother Han..
“Now that everyone is back, you should keep an eye on the Corpse Realm Flower. We’re going back to report to the sect,” Qing You said. “When the passage closes, the flower will turn into a seed. Plant it a few months before the next opening.”
Mu Qi thanked her. Although the people of the Divine Corpse Sect couldn’t take seeds out, they advised them to take care of it.
After Gu Cheng and the others left, Jiang Hao also bid farewell to Mu Qi. He noticed that Miao Tinglian was coming over, and it would be awkward if he stayed.
Mu Qi smiled and nodded. Although he had many questions to ask, he refrained from doing so.
“Leaving so early, Junior Brother Jiang?” Miao Tinglian greeted Jiang Hao with a smile.
Jiang Hao just bowed to greet her and then went back to his house.
After a long time in the Corpse Ream, he felt a bit unaccustomed to the things around here.
He needed to take out some spirit herbs and store them in the Spirit Herb Garden.
The spirit herbs he had were not of high quality, so they might not fetch him much.
Moreover, he was at the peak of Foundation Establishment Realm for all intents and purposes. Only one step away from reaching the Golden Core
ne?d1H1.
On his way back, he happened to see a dispirited man walking on the road.
Jiang Hao recognized him. He was Feng Yang. The one from the cafeteria where Jiang Hao paid for extra food for Xiao Li.
“Junior Brother Feng?” Jiang Hao called out.
Feng Yang saw Jiang Hao, and he looked delighted to see him.
Jiang Hao assumed that Xiao Li had caused trouble again.
“Senior Brother Jiang, you’re back already?” Feng Yang asked excitedly. Jiang Hao nodded. “What’s wrong? Did Xiao Li cause trouble again?”
“Not exactly,” Feng Yang said. “It’s just that Junior Sister seems to have a much bigger appetite now, and the previous amount of food can’t satisfy her. But if we don’t give her enough to eat, she will cause trouble in the cafeteria. So, for the past six months, I’ve been covering up for her expenses…”
Feng Yang looked at Jiang Hao expectantly. “How much more spirit stones are needed? I can’t let you spend money on such matters.”
“About eight or nine spirit stones a month.” Feng Yang dared not say more than that.
“For a total of six months, right?” Jiang Hao gave him sixty spirit stones.
“This is too much..
“It’s necessary,” Jiang Hao said politely.
After all, Xiao Li was an outer sect disciple, and the reason Feng Yang was willing to cover for her for half a year was because of Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao walked with Feng Yang because he was going in the same direction.
On the way, he asked about Xiao Li and how she was doing.
Apart from having a bigger appetite, Xiao Li hadn’t done anything to anger others. But there were always minor incidents with her since she wasn’t very obedient.
Jiang Hao also asked about the spirit beast. Feng Yang had only good things to say about the beast.
After making sure that nothing troublesome had come to pass, Jiang Hao bid farewell to Feng Yang and returned to his courtyard.
As soon as he entered, he frowned.
He looked around but didn’t see anything else.
‘Why was there suddenly so much spiritual energy?
