Attacked by the Female Demon at the Beginning - Chapter 309

Chapter 309: The Bearing of an Immortal

In the dead of night, Jiang Hao stood outside the Blood Tide Forest.

He couldn’t see through to the interior, but he could roughly make out that the fluctuations of spiritual energy had calmed down.

This meant that the battle had come to an end.

Not only that, but he also saw a green light.

The moment this green light appeared, he felt an ominous sensation.

The blood energy around seemed to be trembling, faintly but truly there.

“It seems that not only has the battle ended, but that thing has also emerged. It doesn’t look as exaggerated; it’s probably being sealed, or in a state of being sealed,” Jiang Hao thought as he looked towards the sky, where the Human Element Formation also seemed to have no further changes.

He wondered why.

“I don’t know if Taoist Shang’an succeeded or failed,” Jiang Hao was curious.

At present, nothing could be discerned.

However, according to what Taoist Shang’an had said, he would probably leave in a day or two.

But since there were no changes in the formation, it seemed very likely that he had failed.

Jiang Hao waited a bit longer and sensed a force near the green light; indeed, someone was trying to seal that thing.

“I wonder if they have any spare hands left. They should have, but I’m not sure how strong they are.”

The previous battle had been too terrifying, making Jiang Hao somewhat reluctant to approach.

After hesitating for a while, he took out a Heavenly Secret Concealment Talisman and activated it.

Then he took out a Qi Breath Concealment Talisman and activated that as well.

Afterward, he began to conceal his own aura.

Having done all this, he connected with the sub-ring he had placed in the Blood Tide Forest.

He wanted to go in and check the situation.

At this moment, he took out his protective treasures and a Thousand Li Teleportation Talisman.

Should there be any danger, he would flee.

Once ready, he disappeared from the spot.

When he reappeared, he was in a forest some distance from the mine.

This was the main reason he dared to come—being too close would be too risky.

But just as he arrived, he felt a strange aura.

This aura seemed excited and greedy, wanting to absorb the surrounding blood energy.

The green light became even more pronounced.

“Is this the Earthly Extreme Heart-Devouring Bead?” Jiang Hao looked towards the direction of the green light in astonishment.

If this aura wasn’t suppressed, he felt that not fleeing immediately would be dangerous.

It was indeed the fierce object that the End of All Things was seeking.

Extremely terrifying.

If this thing fell into their hands, no one knew what would happen.

Just like the Heavenly Extreme Calamity Bead.

Senior Dan Yuan’s point was that such objects must be controlled by orthodox immortal sects.

That would be better for everyone.

Immortal sects would only suppress it, not allow the object to appear in the world.

But for other Demon Sects, it was uncertain.

“It’s a pity that there are no people from the Haotian Sect or the Mingyue Sect here, otherwise I could lead them here. Although there is the Mountain and Sea Sword Sect, I don’t know if their people would care.”

Jiang Hao had dealt with the Mingyue Sect before and felt that they were indeed good.

As for the Haotian Sect, he had some dealings with Liu Xingchen before. They should be alright.

Especially since they claim to be the strongest immortal gate, they are certainly not comparable to other sects.

Whether in terms of ideology or strength, it’s probably the same.

Later on, Jiang Hao carefully sensed his surroundings and quickly discovered the aura of Taoist Shang’an.

The aura was weak, nearly at death’s door.

“How could he be so gravely injured?”

Jiang Hao wondered and began to walk in that direction.

During this time, he made sure there were no powerful beings nearby, and roughly understood that those with strength were restrained by the Earthly Extreme Heart-Devouring Bead.

Now this place was relatively safe for him.

However, as of now, the previous powerful being was still nowhere to be seen.

This made him even more cautious.

After a short while, Bu Haicheng, who had been watching Taoist Shang’an, suddenly heard footsteps.

When he turned to look, he saw a figure standing under a tree.

“Who’s there?” he asked warily.

From a distance, the figure seemed to be at the later stages of Foundation Establishment, but it was unclear, probably due to some kind of concealment treasure.

Soon the figure emerged from the darkness, and Bu Haicheng could see the newcomer clearly.

Under the moonlight, Jiang Hao stood before Bu Haicheng.

“Daoist Jiang?” Bu Haicheng said with a smile.

“I heard that the Fairy Xue Yue is dead, was it Ye Dong who killed her?”

Jiang Hao merely glanced at Bu Haicheng, then turned his attention to Taoist Shang’an.

At this moment, he finally knew who had unleashed that powerful force earlier.

It was Taoist Shang’an.

From the traces on his body, each strand of aura was far beyond Nascent Soul.

Completely beyond Jiang Hao’s understanding.

So Taoist Shang’an was this powerful, unbelievable.

Still, he answered Bu Haicheng’s question:

“Mhm.”

“Where is Ye Dong now?” Bu Hai Cheng asked again.

“I don’t know, but I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise if Ye Dong arrives, you will surely be killed.” Jiang Hao kindly warned.

“Alright, thank you, Daoist friend.” Saying this, Bu Haicheng passed by Jiang Hao and walked towards the woods.

However, as he reached behind Jiang Hao, he suddenly exerted his power to attack Jiang Hao.

“Heh, fell for it, huh? I’ve long known that Ye Dong is masquerading as this ugly freak, and now you’re here to rescue someone, yet you try to deceive me, die.”

As his words fell, his attack was about to hit Jiang Hao, but for some reason, Bu Haicheng felt his vision shift and then start to spin.

Soon he saw his own body, and in that instant, he realized he had been beheaded.

The one who had acted against him was Jiang Hao, using his finger as a sword.

How could this be?

At this time, Jiang Hao did not pay attention to Bu Haicheng behind him, and casually delivered a Mountain Suppressor, sending him off for good.

Afterward, he turned his attention to the front.

In his gaze, Taoist Shang’an lay on the ground, bound by power, critically injured.

Behind him was an antique sarcophagus.

Standing at the edge of the sarcophagus was a transparent woman, staring blankly at Taoist Shang’an, wanting to get closer but unable to.

She seemed as if she might dissipate at any moment.

This person was the Enchantress, about to break free from her bonds.

Ignoring her, Jiang Hao approached Taoist Shang’an.

Looking at the man on the ground who was barely alive, Jiang Hao couldn’t help but sigh:

“For a woman, is it worth it?”

At this moment, Taoist Shang’an seemed to hear Jiang Hao’s voice, he tried hard to open his eyes, wanting to take a look at Jiang Hao.

He did not see Jiang Hao, but a weak voice came from his mouth:

“M-Master.”

Hearing the voice, the Enchantress immediately reached out her hand, and at this moment, her power began to emerge.

Subsequently, the surrounding scene began to overlap.

At the location of Taoist Shang’an, a young Shang’an was kneeling, and next to Jiang Hao’s position stood an old man with white temples.

“Shang’an,” the old man said angrily.

“For a woman, your cultivation has stagnated, is it worth it? Is it really worth it?”

At this time, Shang’an knelt on the ground, silent.

“Do you not want to enter the Corpse Realm? I will help you, send you there. But you must promise me to kill that woman,” the old man said earnestly.

“No,” Taoist Shang’an quickly shook his head.

“Master, I can’t do it, I really can’t.”

“She is just an obstacle on your path of cultivation, do you know she has already affected you?” the old man said angrily:

“Enter the Corpse Realm, kill her, embrace the Path of Heartlessness, and shatter the Immortal ladder in one fell swoop. Rise to the vast heavens.”

“No, no,” Taoist Shang’an shook his head.

“I won’t kill Xiao Mei, I’d rather never make progress again.”

“Shang’an!” the old man’s voice grew louder, roaring.

“Do you know what kind of talent you have? Your cultivation has already surpassed mine, and once your talent is discovered by the Haotian Sect, as long as you are willing, even if you were born in the Demon Sect, they would take you as a true disciple.”

“You have the bearing of an immortal, you are destined to stand at the pinnacle of the entire cultivation world. How can you let a woman bring you to a standstill?”

“Shang’an! My disciple, wake up!”
