Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

1423  The Heavenly Blade Is Invincible (1)

The cold wind rustled.

The weather at the end of February was quite unstable.

Occasionally, the sky would be clear, but the chilly wind would rage again.

In the beautiful mountain peak, some disciples were busy, and the mountain steps were crowded with ordinary people.

"Test your talent to the left. Test your comprehension to the right. Meeting either condition is sufficient. If neither is met, those with sufficient vitality can seek opportunities at the outer sect," said a young inner sect disciple.

His voice echoed in all directions.

At this time, many cultivators were flying with swords and ensuring everything was in order.

Everyone's cultivation realm was decent. Golden Core Realm cultivators were common to see.

Among the crowd, Jiang Hao felt quite emotional.

"Azure Mountain is different from before. Although it has been severely damaged, it is not a problem during the Great Era. The speed of recovery is far quicker than what it was before. It won't be long before it surpasses the previous Azure Mountain."

In fact, aside from Azure Mountain, the Heavenly Note Sect was also recruiting disciples on a large scale.

Whether it was rogue cultivators, ordinary people, or powerful and mysterious practitioners, they could all join the Heavenly Note Sect.

Currently, the Heavenly Note Sect was desperately in need of people, especially after the Great Era, the losses had been severe.

If they did not replenish its manpower and resources, the sect would not be able to function.

With such thoughts, Jiang Hao arrived at a familiar courtyard.

However, he discovered that the courtyard was no longer Brother Li's courtyard.

This surprised him.

"Did Brother Li run away?"

He had become the Master of a small peak. Although he was not as powerful as the Masters of the Core Peaks, it still granted some authority and freedom.

He could also guide sect disciples whenever he wished.

Jiang Hao was a little envious of his new position.

Currently, he could only aspire to be one of the top ten disciples.

Meanwhile, Brother Li had already carved out a new path for himself and became a Peak Master.

This was considerably better than being one of the top ten disciples.

The main thing was to maintain the position of the Peak Master of a low-tier peak. Although there would be people who would look down on him, there would not be too much trouble.

Those who could intimidate him would be uninterested in the position, while others would not be able to do so.

Thus, as long as he could handle the complaints, it was a nearly perfect position.

With that in mind, Jiang Hao nodded. He felt that after becoming a top disciple, he should aim for the position of a Branch master.

One day, he hoped to establish a new branch.

It would be the weakest and least populated one.

He would take in some disciples who would not cause trouble and set them free after training them.

With so many thoughts in his mind, Jiang Hao arrived at the small mountain peak.

After a simple glance, he took a step forward and arrived at the top of the peak.

Around the great hall, there were many spirit herbs as well as powerful formations.

Jiang Hao did not know how powerful they were. He could not understand them.

In the past, he might have tried to understand them, but he had no time at the present.

At seventy-eight years old, he certainly did not have enough time to study formations.

In the great hall, a middle-aged man sat high on a chair and looked down from above.

Jiang Hao smiled. "It's been too long, Brother Li."

At that moment, Li Qi said icily, "Smiling San Sheng, you still dare to venture out? Do you even know how many people are looking for you? Although you are the greatest of all time, you are still not invincible. Many want to capture you and probe into the secret of your achievements."

"Will you betray me, Brother Li?" Jiang Hao asked.

"What if I do?" Li Qi asked.

"Then, you're so heartless. No matter where I go, everyone hates me and wants to attack me. If you also betray me, you'll be adding salt to my injuries," said Jiang Hao pitifully. "My life is so tough right now."

Li Qi was speechless.

"I'm here to ask you some questions, Brother Li." Jiang Hao got straight to the point.

"About overseas matters? Or do you want to know how many people are looking for you?" Li Qi asked.

Jiang Hao was a little surprised. "Are many clans involved?"

Li Qi frowned. "Isn't that what you were going to ask about?"

"Of course not." Jiang Hao smiled. "With so many people targeting me, there's no need to know about everyone. I only need to be aware of some deeper disputes such as the Great Thousand God Sect, the Saint Bandits, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe, the Fallen Immortal Immortals, and the Heavenly Saint Sect. Others shouldn't be a problem. I haven't offended others so much. Although I have offended The End of All Things a few times, they are different from other forces. They are too scattered to focus their fire on me."

"So, what do you want to ask?" Li Qi asked warily.

"Brother Li, why are you so nervous? We are brothers. Would I harm you?" Jiang Hao asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Li Qi's eyebrows twitched.

This person was insulting him to his face.

This was intolerable.

"Are you going to ask or not?" Li Qi said.

Jiang Hao held his folding fan. "Have you heard of the East Heavenly Pole, Brother Li?"

"A little," Li Qi said.

"Then, you might already know that the River of Deathly Silence comes from the East heavenly Pole, right?" Jiang Hao asked.

"Yes." Li Qi nodded.

"Do you know about the Master of the East Heavenly Pole?" Jiang Hao asked.

"A legendary figure from a long time ago. It's said that he was very strong, with his strength manifesting in the blade. It is said that anyone using a blade was not able to raise their head in front of him," Li Qi said.
