a breath of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Ability of Daily Appraisal had brought him immense pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had just learned that the small girl and the others had begun to approach the sea when he used the Divine Ability to find the Red Dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was somewhat difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Divine Ability was fine against those with lower cultivation, but it was very difficult against those with a higher cultivation level than oneself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can he tell what you're doing by this?\" Heavenly Note Sect asked as she picked up her teacup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hard to say,\" Jiang Hao pondered and said, \"The Red Dragon has powerful cultivation and should know it's me, and perhaps by conjecture, he might guess it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If he can't guess, he will try to.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If all else fails, forget it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let the small girl and the others figure it out on their own.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His original intention was to have the Red Dragon take the small girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As of now, the Red Dragon seemed trustworthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Little Wang was there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Red Dragon's actions before were disingenuous, with Little Wang guarding, delaying the Red Dragon for a moment, the spirit beast would use the sub-ring to get himself there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he indeed was no match for the Red Dragon, but he could call for reinforcements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would be enough of a deterrent to some degree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that failed, there was still the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The End of All Things was not afraid of this thing, but others certainly were.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So it seems you haven't had much to do over the years,\" Heavenly Note Sect remarked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not exactly, the junior still needs to tend to his flowers,\" said Jiang Hao, looking at the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, \"just not sure when they will mature.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect's gaze then fell upon the Immortality Peach Tree, \"When do you plan to undergo nirvana?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't know,\" Jiang Hao shook his head, pondering, \"Perhaps after I've advanced my realms a bit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It would be best if you enter the Immortal Ascension Realm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With sufficient strength, there wouldn't be too much to worry about in terms of problems occurring.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You really are cautious,\" Heavenly Note Sect chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" Jiang Hao nodded earnestly, \"better safe than sorry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The people of the Giant Spirit Clan seem a bit restless, what do you plan to do?\" Heavenly Note Sect put down the teacup and asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao paused to think:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are there any undercover agents from the sect within the Giant Spirit Clan?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What if there are?\" Heavenly Note Sect asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Naturally, we'd instruct the undercover agent to inform the Giant Spirit Clan that it might be the Seven-Colored Stone due to major issues arising with the great era and to have them repair it, then select a few people to show progress with the mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Show about ninety percent completion, so they won't be willing to give up,\" Jiang Hao stated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How many years can they hold on with ninety percent?\" Heavenly Note Sect inquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"About five years.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And after five years?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After five years, just missing the last one percent of that final ten percent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hold on for another five years?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, then the Seven-Colored Stone would need repairing, the beginning of repairs would go smoothly, but the last ten percent would require some rare medicinal materials which, although obtainable, are time-consuming to find, so let them search, they could probably last a few more years.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Afterwards, once they find it, give them a sense of progress, with just the last tiny bit left, needing a bit of strength reinforcement, after several years, again missing just that little bit of ordinary stuff that takes several years to absorb.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So the cycle continues, in a hundred years perhaps they're still eagerly trying to repair it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After all, success seems so close, and with so much already invested, they are mostly unwilling to give up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If they think of giving up, just make them feel that the mark is almost complete, just missing the final touch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After listening to Jiang Hao, Heavenly Note Sect was silent for a while and then said, \"You don't seem like a good person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao smiled and said, \"It depends on whether the senior needs a good person or not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The junior is acting on behalf of the senior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Plus, with the protection and efforts of the Giant Spirit Clan, the sect will be much more stable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The powerful ones currently won't be coming, the appearance of the Blood Demon surely scared them off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The rest can be handled by the Giant Spirit Clan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect chuckled and said no more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, they just drank tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the night deepened, the guest took their leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Jiang Hao heave a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could never have imagined that a moment of distraction would have lasted fifteen years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How old was he now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One hundred and fifty-five years old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With cultivation raised, the years indeed have become almost imperceptible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After having long life, is there really such a thing as years anymore?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What there might be is not years, but the changing of heaven and earth, the cycle of all things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cyclical destruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But why then, when comprehending the Moon-Slaying saber technique, did he see no sign of cyclical destruction?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything was changing towards decay and desolation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, turning to nothingness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that this state couldn't be reversed, that nothing could last forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doomed to extinction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Irreversible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To comprehend the seventh form, does one need to make everything cyclic?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To extend the cycle?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao couldn't understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at the moment, he no longer had that feeling of enlightenment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he would not fall into that distracted state out of the blue anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, he turned his gaze back to the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I should hurry to increase my cultivation instead, another fifteen years wasted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The longer he was distracted, the longer his promotion took.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It only takes about seventy years to accumulate the bubbles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in total, it's about a hundred years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, there has to be occasional distraction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once distracted, it's counted in years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Feels like all the distractions of a lifetime have come at once.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At one hundred and fifty years old, he had spent decades just being distracted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this continues, he might spend more time distracted than living normally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards, Jiang Hao checked the stone pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, there had been gatherings over the years, but he had not participated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't sure how these people were guessing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also had no idea what the outside world was like now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, Gui and Liu were chatting inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gui: \"Sigh, my place is an island, about to be submerged by the sea, how long are these people going to fight?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu: \"Don't know, but it's okay on my side, mainly because the Shangguan family's residence is out of the way, so it just got affected, other places are fine, just a couple of huge waves coming a month.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gui: \"Did any of the dragon race join in?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu: \"The channel has already shattered, the dragon race's return has been delayed, but I heard a powerful dragon warrior joined the battle, the sea level suddenly dropped, it was this warrior who led the sea.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1238,"2026-06-03T11:46:33.879Z","2026-06-03T11:46:41.884Z",1,"novelbin.me","99127e4cd9c730e2faccd1d054a395fa763ea549b2c6c96dfb3f9c0ec86c0990","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1647","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1645",2139,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-cover.jpg"]
