This year's peaches look even better than last year's.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Will they be sweeter than last year's?\" Heavenly Note Sect asked, turning her head towards Jiang Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They can't get any sweeter, the current flavor is just right, refreshing and delicious,\" Jiang Hao answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When do you plan to undergo nirvana?\" Heavenly Note Sect inquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao paused for a moment, then shook his head slightly: \"I don't know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't too keen on undergoing nirvana.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If successful and sprouting roots, there should appear purple-gold bubbles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what did he need now with his present cultivation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was nothing that could enhance him anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Death Replacement Divine Ability wasn't of much use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nowadays, those who could kill him would be able to do so again even if he lived through it once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better to be cautious and hide in the sect for a few hundred years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would be better than anything else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Worried about failing?\" Heavenly Note Sect casually plucked a peach and asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A little,\" Jiang Hao admitted after some thought: \"If it succeeds, then we'll have one more divine tree, but if it fails, we'll be down one sweet peach tree.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The divine tree holds no appeal for you?\" Heavenly Note Sect offered the peach she was holding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao took the peach and thanked her with a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need to thank me,\" Heavenly Note Sect said with a smile, looking at the person in front of her,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about soaking in the Dew of the First Sun today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao, looking at the person before him, set aside the Immortal Peach and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe later, it's not the time yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then five thousand spirit stones?\" Heavenly Note Sect asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" Jiang Hao nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Would a million spirit stones be enough?\" Heavenly Note Sect asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior need not worry about such mundane matters, I have my ways,\" Jiang Hao declared confidently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect didn't say much more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao quickly changed the subject and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment is gathering the vital energy of heaven and earth, and various strong figures will appear around the Heavenly Note Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's likely that some will come targeting the flowers of our senior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was thinking, is there a way to lead these troublemakers to the extended Blood Pool?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you planning to do?\" Heavenly Note Sect looked at Jiang Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I would actually like to witness the evil side throughout history,\" Jiang Hao confessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never seen the evil side throughout history, nor did he dare to mention it casually in its presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was very concerned that all he was dealing with was the evil side throughout history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that were the case, he would be in great danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he wanted to see the evil side throughout history with his own eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as someone approached the Blood Pool, there was a chance the evil side would be provoked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In doing so, he could catch a glimpse of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And have at least some understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The evil side throughout history?\" Heavenly Note Sect seemed surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How far away do you think is safe, senior?\" Jiang Hao asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect shook her head: \"I don't know, but it seems like you've become braver.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Jiang Hao's surprised expression, Heavenly Note Sect continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know what being able to write that book signifies?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao understood she was referring to the ancient and current Tao manual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What does it signify?\" He really didn't know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding this realm, I am completely clueless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's put it another way,\" the Heavenly Note Sect pondered for a moment before saying, \"Even if you refined the Ancestral Dragon, you wouldn't be able to produce a Dao fruit equivalent to this book.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao's heart skipped a beat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is it that terrifying?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Jin was indeed powerful, but he hadn't reached his peak before being trapped in the Blood Demon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, he was just beginning to rise but hadn't fully ascended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was interrupted by me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thought it would still be a common peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would have thought it was already a peak of eternity?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even the Ancestral Dragon could be refined, yet Gu Jin casually plucked one out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps aside from the Human Emperor, none of the others from the Human Emperor's era could match Gu Jin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least not at the peak of Gu Jin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So when he plucked the Dao fruit, he should've become weaker, right?\" Jiang Hao inquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know when he plucked it?\" asked the Heavenly Note Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon he was shocked to his core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His back was drenched with cold sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one knows when this book was written, meaning that for all these endless years, Gu Jin might have condensed a new Dao fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That might mean he has become even stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To explore rashly is indeed very dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One must be cautious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heavenly Note Sect arrived quickly and left just as swiftly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they invited me to study formations again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having no choice, Jiang Hao could only head for Hundred Flowers Lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then once again he landed by the lake and began to comprehend the Seven Forms of the Heavenly Blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He often read the nameless manual and still found it extremely beneficial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The great world of heaven and earth, the changing of all things, from the macro to the micro.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like a myriad of changes, extremely mysterious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, while reading, I would become lost in thought; the depth of this book was unfathomable, encompassing heaven and earth within itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, upon arriving at Hundred Flowers Lake, the main focus was still on cultivating the Seven Forms of the Heavenly Blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the lake, there were infinite changes of the blade's intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deeper he comprehended, the more he realized his understanding of the Moon-Slaying saber technique was far too superficial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His foundation was not solid enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed to revisit from the macro to the micro, solidify his saber technique, and temper his sword's intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I inadvertently became engrossed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A month's time flew by in a flash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the meantime, Jiang Hao became conscious once, and saw dark clouds pressing close to heaven and earth outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also heard some clamor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were also traces of a struggle between strengths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some powerful beings had arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, none of it affected the sect, nor the convergence of the earth's great luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he awoke for the second time, Jiang Hao heard mocking laughter from outside: \"Is this all the Bright Moon Sect has? Such trash trying to stop us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Early stage of Heavenly Immortal? Are you here to seek death?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could it be you don't even have one at the Middle Stage of Heavenly Immortal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao only heard the voices and did not witness the actual situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But truly, the early stage of Heavenly Immortal was not Bright Moon Sect's trump card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I wonder what they would think when they saw Senior Brother Wan Xiu and Master Hao Yue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, I heard that Kendo had come again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a busy sword immortal, always active in every matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>----\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the Heavenly Note Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three people from the Immortal Clan looked at the great fortune converging in the sky, somewhat in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is a person of great fortune really about to receive such terrifying good luck? Like an infinite vortex, if some of it were given to us, we could ascend rapidly,\" lamented a middle-aged man from the Immortal Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouyang Qingwu, of the Immortal Clan, with the cultivation of the successful stage of True Immortal Realm, represented his clan in gathering various races and sects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two other people, a man and a woman, were beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rather young.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seemingly around thirty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man, with cultivation at the late stage of the True Immortal Realm, was named Ouyang Hui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman, with the cultivation at the middle stage of the True Immortal Realm, was named Ji Hui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were not here for the great fortune but for Jiang Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Many strong beings have come around, and some have already clashed with the Heavenly Note Sect, but to no avail,\" spoke Ouyang Qingwu seriously. \"We'll wait a bit longer, and as soon as the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment begins ascension, we'll directly enter the Heavenly Note Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"An omen will surely come then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There will be enough time and opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grab Jiang Hao and leave, no lingering.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just forget everything else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We're probably not the only ones targeting Jiang Hao, so we need to be careful of attacks from others,\" Ji Hui added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half a month later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky roared with thunder and rain, and the great fortune gathered completely, opening a golden path slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the light shone down on the Heavenly Note Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A silhouette emerged bathed in the glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked up into the sky, slowly rising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the winds and clouds of heaven and earth changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vortex of great luck span.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment set foot toward the high heavens, officially beginning ascension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take action,\" said Ouyang Qingwu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Capture Jiang Hao, and do not linger.\u003C\u002Fp>",1931,"2026-06-03T11:46:33.879Z","2026-06-03T11:46:41.884Z",1,"novelbin.me","a481277bd2686d14bb631d80a5542fe61da852b49749cf12af144bd09aef640d","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1618","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1616",2139,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-cover.jpg"]
