“He is in the Lawless Tower every day?”
In the Hundred Flowers Lake, Hong Yuye sat in the red pavilion.
In front of her was a set of tea, with steam rising like fine smoke, occasionally swaying with the breeze.
Baizhi stood outside the pavilion, respectfully bowing.
“Yes, Jiang Hao has been in the Lawless Tower recently. I think he is using the environment of the tower to cultivate.”
The overseas cooperation had ended, and there was news of Feng Hua, so she came to report to the Sect Master.
She also reported on the matter of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower and Jiang Hao.
Normally, they wouldn’t pay much attention to Jiang Hao.
But his frequent visits to the Lawless Tower were getting strange.
It needed some observation.
“Cultivating inside?” Hong Yuye’s voice was calm.
Baizhi considered for a moment. “According to my observation, every time Jiang Hao goes in, he meditates, and there are fluctuations in the surrounding aura. It indicates signs of deviation from the right path.”
However, this was just surface-level stuff.
Since he dared to sit there, it meant that he had some confidence. Otherwise, the people behind him wouldn’t agree to this reckless behavior.
“My subordinates suspect it’s related to Heaven Lock. According to what a person on the fifth level said, Jiang Hao was initially looking at Nangong Yue. She is a member of the Saint Bandits.”
Hong Yuye lowered her head and looked at the faint steam coming from the teacup. “What is he cultivating?”
“It seems like he’s just trying to calm his state of mind.” Baizhi hesitated. “should we sena someone to approach nim ana askf”
At that, Hong Yuye looked at her. “What do you think?”
Baizhi bowed her head, thought for a moment, and then said, “I think it’s not necessary because the answer we get is most likely about tempering the state of mind.”
If there was a secret, there would naturally be excuses, especially when the secret involved something significant.
In such a situation, there was no need to ask too many questions.
Moreover, from the Sect Master, she could feel that there was no need to monitor Jiang Hao too closely.
It was easy to overdo it.
Furthermore, after investigating for so long, no evidence of undercover agents or traitors had been found, so it was enough to pay attention for now.
Hong Yuye picked up the teacup and let Baizhi talk about other things.
“It seems something has happened overseas. After Heavenly King Bu Dong left the Sea Fog Cave, they left with his people overnight. It was urgent. The details are still under investigation, but the biggest gain so far is Feng Hua.” Baizhi glanced at the person in the pavilion, saw no reaction, and continued, “If I’m right, Hai Ming, the newly recruited outer sect elder, is one of his Great Thousand Spiritual Avatars.”
“For this person, the sect will arrange it in a conventional way. In order not to alert the enemy, the investigators have given up contacting him. The plan is to use indirect methods to find out his true self. It’ll take some time.”
After finishing her report, there was a brief silence.
Then, Hong Yuye said, “What else?”
“The gains from the Sea Fog Cave have been tallied, but no matter what, they are not as valuable as the Heaven Lock. They might be more practical than Heaven Lock, and the Saint Bandits have completely disappeared, making it difficult to trace their whereabouts. It’s impossible to speculate exactly what they are hiding,” Baizhi said.
She then reported on the situation of Yinsha, but there was no response.
In other words, she had to handle these matters on her own.
On the fifth floor of the Lawless Tower, Jiang Hao sat cross-legged and opened his eyes.
In his eyes, there was only calmness.
‘A very strange feeling.’
Jiang Hao found it surprising. He felt calmer than usual and sensed things differently.
It was as if he was in harmony with the world.
It was a change in state of mind.
He never expected that just calming down would bring such gains.
The Lawless Tower was indeed a good place.
At this moment, he looked at Zhuang Yuzhen. “Senior, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” Zhuang Yuzhen quickly returned to normal.
But when he lowered his head, there was a trace of doubt and shock in his eyes.
An hour was almost up, and Jiang Hao didn’t linger any longer. He stood up and left.
Heavenly King Hai Luo and others were puzzled.
“It seems like every time he comes here, he doesn’t stay for more than an hour, and he leaves when it’s almost time,” Nangong Yue said. Heavenly King Hai Luo just gave her a cold glance and sat quietly.
Nangong Yue was speechless.
Not long after, Yinsha descended from the upper floors.
She had stayed up there for a long time. She had heard and seen a lot of things during her disappearance.
This left her puzzled. The person clearly asked her to pass on a message, so why not just say it?
There must be a reason.
When she reached the fifth floor, she found Heavenly King Hai Luo. “I heard you know the secret of the Great Thousand God Sect and The End of All Things?”
There was a change in his state of mind, and Jiang Hao wanted to carefully sense it.
But he found that this kind of thing couldn’t be described in words.
He could indeed calm his mind better and quickly blend with the surroundings.
As for whether there would be ripples due to charm techniques, it couldn’t be tested unless he asked Hong Yuye for help.
Thinking back to some things Hong Yuye did in the yard, he felt that there was a way to test whether his mind would be calm.
‘Let’s learn the Heaven Lock Technique first.’
Now that he was no longer worried about being disturbed by the Lawless Tower, he could try to observe the extension of the aura.
But before learning the Heaven Lock Technique, there was something that caught his attention.
He looked at his interface. [Name: Jiang Hao]
[Age: 32]
[Cultivation: Late Stage of the Soul Ascension Realm]
[Cultivation Method: Heavenly Sound Hundred Revolutions, Hong Meng Heart
Sutra]
[Divine Ability: Nine Revolutions Death Substitution (unique), Daily Appraisal,
Clear and Pure Heart, Reappearance of Hidden Spirit, Divine Might, Revival of
Withered Tree, Heavenly Cauldron] [Lifeblood: 95/100 (Can be cultivated)] [Cultivation: 98/100 (Can be cultivated)]
[Divine Abilities: 2/3 (Cannot be obtained)]
‘Ninety-five… In a month from now, I can attempt to advance. I don’t know if it will clash with the Heaven Lock Technique.’
The Heaven Lock Technique would definitely bring many changes, but the cultivation realm was of utmost importance.
For a moment, he couldn’t decide which one to prioritize.
Although there were signs of progress with the Heaven Lock Technique, he knew his limit.
To master it, one month might not be enough.
Once he started learning the Heaven Lock Technique, he couldn’t stop, or else his previous efforts might be in vain.
Jiang Hao made a decision.
He would learn the Heaven Lock Technique first. What if he mastered it within a month?
If he didn’t learn it within a month and didn’t encounter any urgent situations, delaying it a bit would be fine.
But if something else came up, he would abandon the Heaven Lock Technique and prioritize his cultivation.
The next day, While Jiang Hao was guarding the mountain gate, a junior brother at the Foundation Establishment Realm found him.
He was from the Candlelight Pill Pavilion.
“Senior Brother Luo Zhong asked me to give this to you, Senior Brother..”
