Attacked by the Female Demon at the Beginning - Chapter 170

Chapter 170: The Drama of Possession

Mistress?

You won’t have a mistress.

Jiang Hao felt a bitter sweetness in his heart.

With the Tianjue Gu poison in his body, he couldn’t afford to have extra thoughts about women.

Although he would subconsciously think of that red shadow, the main reason was that the Tianjue Gu poison was ineffective on her.

However, he was not pessimistic, not just because the Tianjue Gu poison had its benefits for him.

But also because the poison was not incurable.

As long as one was strong enough.

For others, becoming stronger might be too distant and difficult.

But for him, it was just a matter of time.

The key was to know how strong he needed to be so he could know how long it would take.

“Master, I only have a collar. Isn’t that a bit shabby?” the rabbit said, flicking its neck collar.

“When will you get me one or two more magical treasures?”

“Maybe when there’s a chance,” Jiang Hao replied calmly.

Once he had enough spirit stones, he could buy the rabbit a Golden Core-level collar.

That would be like having two magical treasures.

“Can I pick it out myself then? People on the road all know Lord Rabbit has a good eye for magical treasures,” the rabbit boasted.

“No,” Jiang Hao replied without hesitation.

“Master, you have to acknowledge Lord Rabbit’s excellence,” the rabbit said.

Jiang Hao chuckled.

Shortly after, Jiang Hao arrived at the entrance of the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

“Oh, right, I have to find that outer disciple today,” the rabbit said excitedly as it ran outside.

It seemed that going to beat someone up was very interesting for it.

“Little brat, Lord Rabbit is here again.”

The rabbit was incredibly fast.

Jiang Hao glanced at the rabbit’s retreating figure and noticed that the rabbit was about to advance in level again.

“It’s almost at the late stage of Foundation Establishment; the pace of updating the collar can’t keep up with its promotion speed.”

Jiang Hao frowned slightly.

You see, a mid-stage Foundation Establishment collar had cost him nearly a thousand spirit stones.

One for the late stage would cost fifteen hundred.

“It seems that every time the rabbit taps into its potential, its strength surges dramatically.”

Normally, the rabbit’s promotion speed wouldn’t be so fast.

But with continuous bloodline excavation, its strength would rapidly increase.

Without further thought, he stepped into the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

At this moment, only a few people were busy preparing in the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

The sky was barely lit, and ordinary people had just gotten up and hadn’t come to work yet.

It wasn’t a time of war, so they naturally had plenty of time to rest.

But if war broke out like the last time, then finding time to rest would be difficult.

If what the “鬼” (Gui/Ghost)” said was true, then the Tianyin Sect should be expecting some trouble ahead.

Both the Tiansheng Sect and the Tianyin Sect are Demon Sects, with not much difference in strength.

The Tiansheng Sect coming over to wage war from another region would have no chance of victory.

Normal people wouldn’t do this, but the Tiansheng Sect is different.

They have faith and are extremely fanatical, so they are capable of anything.

Standing in front of the spiritual field, Jiang Hao looked towards the area he anticipated.

Then he let out a deep sigh of relief, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

It was a success.

For a moment, he felt like laughing with joy, but he kept a calm expression.

He did not let his emotions show on his face.

This was to prevent others from seeing through his thoughts.

Looking at the blue bubbles in the distance, he finally felt at ease.

It was the first time he had harvested dozens of blue bubbles at once.

The feeling must be very good.

Now, all he had to do was walk over, and he could integrate dozens of bubbles into his body.

Indeed, this was the fastest way to become stronger.

It’s a pity there weren’t enough spirit stones or a large enough spiritual field.

The most regrettable thing was that after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, the black lotus would probably no longer produce blue bubbles.

Without dwelling on these thoughts, Jiang Hao quickly walked towards the mass of bubbles.

As he approached, a large number of bubbles surged towards him.

He had never experienced such a feeling before.

Then the notification messages appeared.

【Vital Energy+1】

【Cultivation+1】

【Cultivation+1】

【Vital Energy+1】

【Vital Energy Pill+1】

…

Notifications popped up one after another.

The values on the panel changed accordingly.

【Vital Energy: 80/100 (can be cultivated)】

【Cultivation: 82/100 (can be cultivated)】

【Vital Energy: 89/100 (can be cultivated)】

【Cultivation: 90/100 (can be cultivated)】

…

【Vital Energy: 96/100 (can be cultivated)】

【Cultivation: 98/100 (can be cultivated)】

The final values settled at ninety-six and ninety-eight.

In another week, he would be able to start advancing to the Nascent Soul stage.

There was still a month left before entering the Demon Cavern.

This allowed him much more ease; even if there were dangers inside, he would have some ability to resist.

After calming his excitement, Jiang Hao began to count the bubbles he had obtained.

“Vital energy should have increased by seventeen and cultivation by sixteen, with one coming from another spiritual medicine. Does that mean fifty black lotuses produced thirty-three blue bubbles?”

To ensure the accuracy of the data, he checked the black lotus seeds.

He found that only forty-eight had bloomed.

That meant thirty-three bubbles from forty-eight lotuses.

Although it wasn’t a hundred percent, the ratio was still very high.

Especially since this time it cost over a thousand spirit stones.

The people from Candlelight Alchemy Court made a profit and were able to bring the flowers back half a month in advance.

Fortunately, he didn’t lose out at all.

Over the next two days, the remaining black lotuses also sprouted.

One blue bubble appeared.

……

Another four days passed.

Jiang Hao went to the courtyard and collected two bubbles next to the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.

At this point, both his cultivation and vital energy had reached one hundred.

【Vital Energy: 100/100 (can be cultivated)】

【Cultivation: 100/100 (can be cultivated)】

He was ready to advance.

However, he planned to wait until the evening, as the array was also ready.

Today, he would continue to take care of the spiritual medicines.

But just as he arrived at the Spiritual Medicine Garden, he saw Liu Xingchen waiting at the entrance.

At this time, Liu Xingchen’s aura had changed again, with most of the dark energy dissipated.

It was as if the witchcraft had stopped.

However, judging by Liu Xingchen’s complexion, there seemed to be no problem.

His face was ruddy, and his eyes were bright.

His aura was much stronger than it had been a few months ago.

Jiang Hao was somewhat speechless; why had Liu Xingchen grown stronger in just a few days?

Driven by curiosity, he initiated the identification once more.

【Liu Xingchen: A true disciple of the Haotian Sect, born with the aura of Dragon Slaughter. Because he is bored, he helped the Ancient Witch create an opportunity for possession, but unfortunately, the Ancient Witch discovered the True Dragon’s remnant soul at the last moment and chose to act cautiously out of concern. This caution lasted a month, and to motivate the Ancient Witch, he swallowed most of the Ancient Witch’s divine soul in one bite, deliberately pushing the Ancient Witch towards the location of the True Dragon’s remnant soul, then pretended not to see it, waiting for the Ancient Witch to cooperate with the True Dragon and attempt to possess him together. Undercover at Tianyin Sect’s Enforcement Peak, he befriends you to get closer to the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower and to watch the drama unfold. Currently taking the opportunity to see how things play out and taking a great interest in you.】

Jiang Hao: “…”

First, it was True Dragon, and then the Ancient Witch.

I wonder what these two are feeling to be tormented by Liu Xingchen like this.

For a moment, Jiang Hao was quite curious about how the plot would unfold during the next appraisal of Liu Xingchen.

Do the Ancient Witch and True Dragon still have a chance to turn the tables?

But beyond that, he was also very interested in the last sentence.

The last appraisal was of great interest, and so is this one.

Even though he has been quite peaceful recently, and nothing significant has happened in his sect.

Why does Liu Xingchen’s interest remain so high?

Being targeted by such a person is actually quite troublesome.

However, so far, the other party still seems to be harmless.

He could even ask for his help.
