He wanted to immerse himself in it completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then could he improve properly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao took his seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others also appeared one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After exchanging greetings with Senior Dan Yuan, he asked the others if they had any problem with their cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Jiang Hao had some questions, but he did not know what to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He just wanted to know if he had any hopes of becoming an immortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could get more support from him, he would feel more at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he sighed inwardly and remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is the fastest way to comprehend the Dragon Clan’s inheritance?” Liu asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Senior Dan Yuan smiled and said, “Find a dragon with exceptional cultivation realm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu sighed softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finding a dragon might still be remotely possible, but finding one with an exceptional cultivation realm would be almost impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the present world, dragons did exist, but no one knew if any of the dragons had an exceptional cultivation realm like the dragon of the Grand Earth Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, it was time to discuss Senior Dan Yuan’s task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked about the mutated beasts and also about a flood dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone shook their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no news so far.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao knew the location of the mutated beasts, but he hesitated to say so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the time being, he did not want to worry about that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that came the trading segment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I want to find a slightly powerful dragon,” Liu said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gui thought for a moment. “The Grand Earth Emperor has a dragon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She was born just recently. She doesn’t seem to understand much of anything for now,” said Liu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gui thought for a moment and said, “There is a remnant soul of a dragon in the Xuanyuan Sword.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is it still there now?” Liu asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Might have gone dormant,” said Gui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the soul was dormant, it would not work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao thought for a while and said, “Do you remember the person who read the message I left behind?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu was surprised. “What do you mean by that, Friend Jing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If my guess is correct, he’s a dragon,” Jiang Hao said in a low voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dragon?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gui thought it was not so unusual. Jing seemed to deal with most things related to the Dragon Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made sense that the person he was looking for was actually a dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu lowered his head in thought. If that was true, he might actually be able to contact that person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Contacting him was one thing. Getting the dragon to help him was quite another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he was still thinking, Jing said, “If you want to contact him, maybe there’s an easier way.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu did not hesitate. “I would be glad if you could share that with me. What do you want in return, friend Jing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao was silent for a while. “Just leave it for now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he used the stone tablet to transmit the method to Liu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu looked puzzled. Then, he relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fact that Jing could leave a message in that place already showed how powerful he was. This would definitely be useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gui asked, “Is there any way to delay the hatching of a spiritual egg?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Use a blood formation,” said Zhang. “It should be a Reverse Blood Formation. It’ll temper the bloodline and prevent it from hatching, but it won’t affect the creature.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gui’s eyes lit up. She had never heard of such a thing before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the transaction was successful, they discussed what was happening around them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone had been waiting for this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gui had returned to the South and shared some of her findings from the North.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, she learned that the mutated beasts were sort of a deal between the immortal sects and The End of All Things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beasts were a peace offering for the other side to not create more trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao felt a little sentimental.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such an environment, The End of All Things was the one who would profit from it the most, while the immortal sect would only have an option to retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing talked about the Fallen Immortal Clan. He told them that the Fallen Immortal Clan had been barred from making a move for about fifty years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also said that the person who had done it had laid out only one condition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he said that, he looked at Jiang Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What request?” Gui asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone felt relieved. They were waiting for her to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For fifty years, Smiling San Sheng should not be disturbed,” said Xing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao was the one who was most surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person had done this for him. He wondered why.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why?” Gui asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao could not help but praise Gui in his heart for asking the right questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were not for Gui, the gathering would not flow as smoothly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing shook his head. “I don’t know. He just made a move so suddenly. It even caught the Fallen Immortal Clan off guard.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao remembered. He would thank him later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed he had to find a way to express his gratitude in some way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even half of fifty years, twenty-five years, would be enough for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a generous favor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not know who that person was. The matter was not small, so he could ask around and find out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao did not say anything, and no one asked him anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They talked about other things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang said that Lou Mantian had returned to the West. He seemed to have gotten stronger. He had brought back many corpses with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chaos would soon erupt in the West.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao sighed. It was the same for the South.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As time given by the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron ran out, disasters increased everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Becoming an immortal was imperative, and it had to be done quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, he listened quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He listened to his every word and thought about the overall situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When everyone had finished talking, he slowly said, “I’m going into seclusion soon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re going into seclusion? So, you can’t be disturbed?” Gui asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For how long?” Gui asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew how long it would take, but he could not say it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others felt that it was very sudden, but it was not unusual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cultivators did go into seclusion to improve themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they felt that the gathering would feel a little empty without Jing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides Jing, who else dared to collect powerful and dangerous objects?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao did not know what they were thinking, but it was important for him to go into seclusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Friend Jing, you have found your path. You’re different from when you first appeared here,” said Dan Yuan with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Senior. I’ll take your words as a blessing,” said Jiang Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Senior Dan Yuan smiled but did not say anything else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the gathering ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao opened his eyes. He looked at the stone tablet and felt a mix of emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There had been many turning points in his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had met Hong Yuye. Then, he had found the stone tablet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both had opened many doors for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt a bit sad to close one of those doors. But nothing in the world was permanent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao put away the stone tablet and sat in the courtyard. He looked up at the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When dawn broke, he went to find Senior Sister Miao and Senior Brother Mu Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not talk too much and got right to the point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Brother, Senior Sister, I’m going out for a while,” Jiang Hao said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miao Tinglian looked puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When will you be leaving?” asked Mu Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In December,” Jiang Hao said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright. We’ll help look after the Spirit Herb Garden and Xiao Li,” said Mu Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao nodded and bowed to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When you return, I’ll introduce you to a good Junior Sister,” said Miao Tinglian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, Jiang Hao went to bid farewell to his Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Master only looked at him and said, “Be careful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the end of November, Jiang Hao went to the Lawless Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not say anything much but gave everyone some food he had brought with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he turned and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone felt puzzled, but they did not think too much about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around early December, Jiang Hao used the Thousand Miles Teleportation Talisman and disappeared from the Heavenly Note Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he reappeared, he was on a distant mountain peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked back at the sect where he had lived for nearly fifty years. Then, he turned and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, he might not be able to return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the boat outside the Jade Cloud Pavilion, Mr. Tao frowned as he listened to the report.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The End of All Things is looking for Smiling San Sheng? Why?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Shen shook his head. “I’m not sure, but it doesn’t seem to be a simple search. It seems like some big shot from that organization wants to rope him in.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t Smiling San Sheng already a member of The End of All Things?” Tang Ya asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Shen was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That indeed seemed to be the case.\u003C\u002Fp>",1722,"2026-06-03T11:46:20.154Z","2026-06-03T11:46:27.041Z",1,"novelbin.me","c92f744575edb02bfd0cecf2eed988324353d0e0cb88e3342946eb7fddd3b81b","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1214","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1212",2139,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-cover.jpg"]
