Attacked by the Female Demon at the Beginning - Chapter 280

Chapter 280: We Must Find Out About Fairy Gui

If Fairy Gui had the qualifications to enter the Corpse Realm, then it was highly probable that she was in the Tianyin Sect.

But how did she obtain these qualifications?

Jiang Hao thought quickly.

Infiltrating the Tianyin Sect, there were two possibilities.

One was to belong to the Tianyin Sect, and the other was to enter with the help of other forces.

But regardless of the method, she definitely couldn’t use her real identity.

Because that way, she would never get the qualifications.

With the large number of people in the Tianyin Sect, choosing one would be extremely difficult.

But if one were to choose the Corpse God Sect, it wouldn’t be certain, but at least there was an eighty percent chance.

After all, there were only thirty-two disciples in the Corpse God Sect at the beginning.

Now there were only twenty-two, and the probability jumped from eighty to a hundred percent.

During these days, he had heard that all twenty-two disciples of the Corpse God Sect had entered, while the Tianyin Sect had twenty-six people.

‘Perhaps Fairy Gui played a role in those deaths back then.’

Jiang Hao felt a bit uneasy, grateful that his Secret Whisper Slate was not easy to track, or else he might have been exposed.

Now there was another problem.

If Fairy Gui was found out, should he let Hong Yuye take action?

He definitely wasn’t a match for her, but Hong Yuye never took action himself.

After thinking it over, Jiang Hao still felt it was not appropriate to act.

The two stone slabs had no use alone; only three together would work.

Moreover, if something happened to Fairy Gui, there was a certain chance he would be suspected.

The undercover operation failed.

We need to slow down a bit.

The priority is to find out who it is and take the initiative.

“Can Fairy Gui enter the Corpse Realm?” Liu asked in surprise.

“I inquired about the Corpse Realm Flower before, and this Corpse Realm should be related to this flower. And in the south, only the place mentioned by Daoist Jing has it, right?”

Fairy Gui smiled slightly and said to Jiang Hao.

“Did Daoist Jing manage to get the qualification?”

Is she testing me? Jiang Hao didn’t answer directly but said:

“It seems that after Fairy Gui heard about the Corpse God Sect, she started to take action.”

Fairy Gui smiled without saying a word.

“Since Fairy Gui got close to that place, you must have seen the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, right?” Xing asked.

This was a good question.

Jiang Hao had actually thought of it too, but he didn’t dare to ask, fearing suspicion.

At this moment, he was just curious like everyone else.

“No,” Fairy Gui shook her head and sighed:

“I don’t have the treasure to investigate the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, so I can’t find where the flower is. However, the Tianyin Sect is quite dangerous. After over a hundred years of development, it has become increasingly formidable. Give them some more time, and they will be able to confront sects like Xuantian Sect head-on.”

The others were surprised and didn’t say much more.

At this time, Dan Yuan finally spoke,

“After entering the Corpse Realm, go to Tianbei Mountain (Heavenly Stele Mountain) and record the content of the sixth stele from the bottom up. As for the reward, information, cultivation methods, secret techniques, medicinal pills, anything goes.”

“Senior, is the Snow God Pill acceptable?” Fairy Gui asked.

“Yes,” Dan Yuan nodded with a smile.

This surprised everyone, as Snow God Pills were precious – once consumed, one less remained in the world.

They were extremely difficult to refine, which also indicated the importance of the sixth stele.

“But there’s one thing you need to pay attention to,” Dan Yuan said to everyone.

“The content on the surface of the sixth stele is not the real content.”

Jiang Hao had some realization; the person who commissioned the task could not get the real content of the sixth stele.

He wanted to use others to obtain the real content to perfect his secret technique or cultivation method.

Fairy Gui still nodded.

“Besides this task, there is another one, which is to find the person targeting the Heavenly Extreme Calamity Bead. Any list from overseas or other departments is acceptable,” Dan Yuan said indifferently.

“Finding the list will allow you to ask me any questions you have in mind.”

That includes all sorts of questions, like how to make the land fertile or more details about the Red Feather Divine Pill.

Jiang Hao knew of a list, so when he had questions, he could trade it.

However, Liu had been paying attention to this; he probably knew more.

“I do know one, one of the twelve kings of the Tianhe Sea, Hai Luo. This person is very high-profile and has already taken the lead in entering the south, but I don’t know the specifics,” Liu spoke up.

It’s already been broken, Jiang Hao couldn’t help but answer in his mind.

“Actually, if we catch him, we can find out more information. The Sea King has a fatal weakness; every hundred years, he becomes infatuated with a woman. A few years ago, he fell for a Foundation Establishment woman, whom he hid very well. I happened to encounter her at the Tianxian Pavilion on Qingjing Island, and I even found out her name, Miao Anxian,” Liu said in a teasing tone.

Jiang Hao: “…”

Liu looked burly and robust, and he seemed particularly interested when talking about women.

However, this information could be put to good use to have a heart-to-heart with the Sea King.

As for the list, Elder Bai Zhi should have already started working on it.

He didn’t need to intervene.

If he could get one or two, he could ask some questions.

Dan Yuan nodded and said softly, “Okay, would you like to ask your questions now or later?”

“Later,” Liu immediately responded.

He needed to rebuild, and some questions could be asked during the cultivation process, but many would come at a cost.

It was better to save these questions for when they were needed.

After the task discussion, it was time for everyone to trade.

“Do you want me to just say it, or do you want to see for yourself?” Liu was the first to speak.

“Let’s see,” Jiang Hao said.

Then the stone tablet appeared beside them, and after Liu withdrew his hand, Jiang Hao placed his hand on the tablet.

Afterward, he saw many words.

End of All Things, pursuing the ultimate in destruction, is a kind of existence similar to a sect.

Jiang Hao didn’t study it in detail; he just memorized it.

He would write it down after returning to take a closer look at the specifics.

“Is it about the End of All Things?” Xing suddenly asked.

Jiang Hao nodded.

“I have different intelligence on the End of All Things,” Xing said.

“What do I need to offer?” Jiang Hao wondered, as this could easily expose him.

“I was pursuing a group of people before, most of whom were heavily injured and imprisoned overseas by Liu Daoist.

Only one escaped alone to the south.

I hope you can help me keep an eye out for this person named Gu Qing,” Xing said.

“Okay,” Jiang Hao nodded without hesitation.

Although he didn’t want to take it on, he had no choice but to do so.

Fortunately, it was just about keeping an eye out for now.

Otherwise, it would have been troublesome.

“Alright, I’ve recently received a secret phrase, which is a handover code used by some disciples of End of All Things. We can use it to find the others,” Xing said, looking towards Dan Yuansenior.

At that moment, the stone slab appeared again.

Jiang Hao also successfully obtained the secret phrase.

“The heavens encompass all things, the earth meets its end.”

Xing reminded:

“This secret phrase will likely change after some time, so if we need to use it, we should do so sooner rather than later—possibly as short as three months or as long as three years.”

Jiang Hao nodded, acknowledging the significant gain.

With no other trades to conduct, everyone began to discuss the situations in their respective regions.

“Do you remember I mentioned before that the Mingyue Sect had recruited a genius disciple?” Xing said to the group with a sigh.

“It’s said that she’s even more talented than expected, with exceptional aptitude, a unique constitution, astonishing comprehension, and surrounded by good fortune. To take her as a disciple, the higher-ups of the Mingyue Sect went to great lengths.”
