Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, in the end, this matter was still his own to deal with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems I really have to make the trip myself,\" Jiang Hao thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once this issue was resolved, everyone could be released in an orderly fashion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heaven Lock would see the light of day again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he would have to keep hiding here, unable to go out at will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving the Lawless Tower, Jiang Hao returned to the Spirit Herb Garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tidied up briefly and set up his stall to sell talismans in the evening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more he sold, the more impatient he became.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt that doing these things was useless, after all, he wasn't short of spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the more anxious he became, the less Jiang Hao wanted to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mind started to become chaotic, as if there was something bothering him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet he didn't feel there was anything worth the anxiety to leave for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As of now, the only thing that occupied his mind was the Ancestral Dragon's Heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that didn't affect his stall operation at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, operating the stall was making him impatient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the advancement in realms that was causing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt that doing these things couldn't improve his cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe when I feel that every move I make is part of cultivation, I won't be so impatient,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He ran his stall for a long time but didn't encounter any regular customers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when night had completely fallen did he finally return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed to find a way to make a trip to the North.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, the fastest method would be to use the secret realm of Helpless Heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Jiang Hao didn't know if the secret realm had ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he returned to his residence,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he saw a spirit beast looking battered and hanging from the perimeter wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had been a long time since he had seen a spirit beast in such a state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, being a Spirit Refinement Realm monster and hanging like this was quite rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he walked through the gate into the courtyard, a red figure came into view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sat under the Immortal Peach Tree, gazing at the fruit on the tree, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Jiang Hao did not disturb her and quietly stepped into the yard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, he didn't know what to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he decided to take care of the spirit herbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had quite a few things here, but he rarely paid attention to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At most, he looked after the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower and the Longevity Fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest he merely managed casually, without much concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the presence of a holy medicine could not draw his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just a few short decades, he had been too busy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had experienced many more things than the average person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Putting aside these messy thoughts, Jiang Hao looked towards the Longevity Fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were no ants on the fruit anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was only one tree now, absorbing everything, currently in bloom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps in a few more years, it would bear fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the fruit would be the Longevity Dao Fruit from the longevity fruit fireworks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it would be a half-finished product or a finished one was unknown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you think this tree will bear?\" Heavenly Note Sect's voice suddenly rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao turned his head and saw that Heavenly Note Sect had stopped pondering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He went to the table and began to brew tea:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It should be a Longevity Dao Fruit,\" he replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then will eating it confer immortality on you?\" Heavenly Note Sect spoke softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment's thought, Jiang Hao asked curiously, \"What does senior think qualifies as a Longevity Dao Fruit?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is it having a long life, or having a seed that grows tall enough to shadow over the land?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect's gaze landed on the Longevity Fruit Tree, saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you think immortality means? Is it being born alongside Dao, or walking with Dao?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao asked in confusion, \"To be born with Dao, and to live a long and prosperous life, isn't that immortality?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it?\" Heavenly Note Sect said with a smile, \"When heaven unleashes its killing intent, can you still live?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, Jiang Hao paused, blurting out involuntarily, \"Spring brings birth and fall brings death, such is the way Dao sows the winds of the universe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Jiang Hao shook his head and sighed, \"Senior's realm is too high, I still don't understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is your idea of immortality?\" Heavenly Note Sect asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To keep on living,\" Jiang Hao pondered and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From now into the future, as days and nights change, stars shift, and eras pass, to keep on living.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you constrained by the Heavenly Dao?\" Heavenly Note Sect questioned further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her question left Jiang Hao silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Constrained?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could one live unconstrained?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coexisting with the Heavenly Dao has been considered immortal for eons, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unable to answer, Jiang Hao was silent and Heavenly Note Sect sipped her tea, saying no more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>```\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long silence, Jiang Hao felt as if he was about to understand something, yet he couldn't grasp it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Longevity didn't seem to mean what it normally did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The higher his realm became, the more he felt that this path had no end in sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too vast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Jiang Hao quickly composed himself and chose not to dwell on these thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior, do you know of the Blood Prohibition Stone?\" Jiang Hao inquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect said, \"A suppressive object with significant effects on all major races, most effective on beings with strong lifeblood.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Strong lifeblood?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao understood why it was used; the lifeblood of the dragon race was extraordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The junior plans to make a trip to the North,\" Jiang Hao spoke up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect wasn't surprised, and casually replied, \"To obtain this object to deal with the Ancestral Dragon's Heart?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed,\" Jiang Hao nodded, sharing that he had found a way to suppress the Ancestral Dragon's Heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially after bringing up the second seal, Heaven Lock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Heavenly Note Sect raised an eyebrow and looked deeply at Jiang Hao, \"You wish to become renowned in the world?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can a single Heaven Lock make one renowned in the world?\" Jiang Hao was surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed,\" Heavenly Note Sect flatly said, \"Heaven Lock may not be powerful, but it can change the fate of all beings.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even the people from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion can't tolerate it?\" Jiang Hao inquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Heaven Lock not being strong, that was true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So far, Heaven Lock had only helped him to understand strength during battles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet in other aspects, none could match Heaven Lock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Innate talents, physique, it could not only steal, but also bestow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This terrifying thing could subvert the entire cultivation world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They cannot tolerate it; Heaven Lock isn't as simple as you think,\" Heavenly Note Sect, picking up a teacup, said, \"In the endless eons of the universe, there are always some who comprehend things beyond understanding.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in every era, the most powerful individuals will eradicate them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Saint Bandits sealed but did not kill them because the Human Emperor didn't want Heaven Lock to disappear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The emergence of Heaven Lock might not be without benefits for the universe; he wanted all such individuals to live.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as he was alive and confident in restraining these people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now many are breaking free from their seals and returning to the universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the Saint Bandits remain sealed. Do you know why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After pondering for a moment, Jiang Hao ventured a guess, \"Because there has yet to appear someone who can suppress the Saint Bandits?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect didn't reply, but from the look on her face, Jiang Hao felt he was right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of person would it take to suppress the Saint Bandits?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are the Saint Bandits really that strong?\" Jiang Hao asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect looked at Jiang Hao, \"Is there anyone who can prevent you from using the Heaven Lock as you please?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao had an epiphany.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Defeating the Saint Bandits might not be difficult, but the challenge lies in being able to restrain the changes and influence brought by Heaven Lock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those from ancient times knew the terror of Heaven Lock, and should a new Heaven Lock be discovered, it must not be allowed to survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, there was no longer a Human Emperor among them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What if the methods to cultivate Heaven Lock were widespread across the universe?\" Jiang Hao asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was referring to the cultivation method of Heaven Lock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect gave him a look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a word, Jiang Hao couldn't help feeling like she was regarding him as a fool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Jiang Hao felt a surge of energy fluctuation from within his storage bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking inside, it was the Dragon Scroll that Heavenly Note Sect had brought back for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The third eggshell had finally been fully assimilated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The inheritance should be appearing soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first was the Emperor's Sword Art, the second, the Dragon Transformation Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The third, he wasn't sure whether it would be about the Human Emperor or the dragon race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then some text caught his eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Suppressing Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the sight of these three characters, Jiang Hao was somewhat surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What did it mean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked over it briefly and was somewhat shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a technique that the Human Emperor had specifically developed to deal with the dragon race in his youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he wasn't mistaken, this was the technique referred to by 'star' as the one that could suppress the dragon race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But wasn't the dragon race's inheritance in The End of All Things possession?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did this scroll also have it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long contemplation, he came up with a hypothesis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The End of All Things never possessed the Book of Inheritance from the beginning to the end; he just wanted to use it to lure the dragon race to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Book of Inheritance had always been within the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl used to suppress the secret realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, it was taken out and has since only been with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So the inheritance of the dragon race has always been in my hands, not anywhere else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sudden realization made Jiang Hao feel the fickleness of fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, he was only missing one item before he could go overseas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This matter truly couldn't be done by anyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's fine, it was his own issue after all; there was no need to trouble others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>```\u003C\u002Fp>",1788,"2026-06-03T11:46:36.654Z","2026-06-03T11:46:32.358Z",1,"novelbin.me","d9bc87fdf428edb54a9de4124f6388bcd3b6d65324c133e118fce7c100daf98e","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1532","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1530",2139,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-cover.jpg"]
