[Immortal Peach Tree: Related to the ancient divine tree, the Immortal Peach Tree. It possesses a trace of the divine. The fruits it bears are sweet. Leave one fruit on the tree and surround it with 24,500 spirit stones arranged in a spirit gathering formation to trigger an incarnation. After undergoing five successful incarnations, the tree will turn into an Immortal Peach Tree. It is easier for the incarnation to succeed if it is placed near other divine items.]
Seeing the number of spirit stones required, Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief.
He could afford it.
Even though he had repaid 1,500 to the Law Enforcement Hall during these few days and had spent a considerable amount of spirit stones on the Sweet Leaf Cold Grass, he still had 25,000 left. This was due to the diligent sales of talismans in recent days.
However, after the incarnation, he probably wouldn’t have many spirit stones left.
If he wanted to accumulate over ten thousand again, he would need to sell Heavenly Rejuvenation Pills.
Fortunately, he didn’t need spirit stones for the time being.
He could continue to manage with just a few hundred spirit stones for the tea he used for Hong Yuye. She only visited once every few months, so he didn’t need too much tea.
‘This time, the incarnation might result in another purple bubble, which means I’m just one bubble away from gaining another divine ability.’
Jiang Hao was in anticipation for another divine ability. Each divine ability had its uses, and it could significantly boost his combat power.
For example, when combined with the Reappearance of Hidden Spirit, his strength far exceeded what it was before.
After picking some peaches, Jiang Hao went to the Spirit Herb Garden.
He gave the peaches to Cheng Chou. They were still delicious and had no other changes.
“Senior Brother Jiang, something has happened recently,” Cheng Chou said in a hushed voice after receiving the peaches. “Several people have died in the Ice
Moon Valley’s Spirit Herb Garden, and it’s said to be the work of the Blood Wish Path. This has already affected the progress of the Spirit Herb Garden, and their people have started investigating. They even got the Law Enforcement Hall involved.”
Jiang Hao was quite surprised. “How long has this been going on?”
“It’s been several days. People have been dying serially. The management of the Spirit Herb Garden wouldn’t have reported it unless they couldn’t take it anymore. They don’t want to make the issue too big,” Cheng Chou said. They would have endured it because they didn’t want to seem incompetent.
“Were they all ordinary people?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Yes.” Cheng Chou nodded. Without the sect backing them, the Law Enforcement Hall wouldn’t go all out.
“Because everyone assumes that you, Senior Brother Jiang, practice the Blood Wish Sect, the blame has been shifted on you. They want you to explain. Some people from the Ice Moon Valley even said that those individuals had long wanted to work for you, so they died for the Blood Wish Path.”
Jiang Hao lowered his head.
He felt like someone was targeting him, but he hadn’t provoked anyone lately. The Spirit Herb Garden had not had any conflicts with others.
Why would he be targeted suddenly?
‘Could it be Senior Brother Qian Chen? His intention must be to make the sect pay attention to me, not make me the target of everyone’s hostility within the sect.’
Jiang Hao didn’t respond to this matter, and he chose to ignore the Ice Moon Valley’s request for answers.
Although the deaths might be blamed on him, the Ice Moon Valley wouldn’t be targeting him personally but rather the Cliff of Broken Hearts.
Currently, no one from the Cliff of Broken Hearts had come looking for him, so he didn’t want to press it further.
If they wanted him to apologize, then he would apologize.
As for compensation…
That would be troublesome.
The next day, a senior brother came over to the garden. He was in the Soul Ascension Realm. Jiang Hao had never seen this senior before.
He appeared to be in his late twenties and looked calm. His aura was astonishing.
He looked to be in the early stage of the Soul Ascension Realm, but judging from the aura he secretly emitted, he was probably already in the late or even the peak stage.
“Are you Junior Brother Jiang Hao?” the senior asked.
“Yes, Senior Brother. May I know who you are.?” Jiang Hao lowered his head respectfully.
“Bai Yi,” Bai Yi said.
‘The senior disciple of the Cliff of Broken Hearts?’ Jiang Hao was shocked.
“Hello, Senior Brother Bai,” Jiang Hao said.
“I’m here for the matter concerning the Ice Moon Valley. I have a question for you,” Bai Yi said softly.
“Of course. Please ask away.” Jiang Hao sighed inwardly. He realized that he would need to respond to the rumors.
“Did you kill those people?” Bai Yi asked.
“No,” Jiang Hao said.
Before he could think of an explanation, Bai Yi nodded. “I see.”
He then turned and left.
The next day, the Cliff of Broken Hearts responded by admitting to the killings. They had killed the people, and since they were dead, that was the end of it. If they were short on people, they could just recruit a few ordinary non-cultivators and count them as compensation. If they thought the Cliff of Broken Hearts was temporarily without a master and they could push them around, they could come and try.
Jiang Hao was stunned by this response.
Bai Yi had directly admitted to it, but it didn’t seem like he was yielding. His tone seemed to be saying that if anyone dared, they could come to the Cliff of Broken Hearts.
“I thought that Senior Brother Bai wasn’t reckless, but he might provoke more trouble if the others decide to confront him directly.”
“But if the others don’t confront him head-on, then they can only swallow their pride and keep quiet.”
“Senior Brother also mentioned our master. He probably wants other branch masters to get involved. After all, our master led a team to the Bright Moon Sect. If something happened to our branch now, it would easily upset the sect’s balance. ”
As expected, the matter was smoothed over by the Law Enforcement Hall, and it seemed that they had identified the real culprits and were pursuing them.
Jiang Hao had gained some insight into Senior Brother Bai Yi. However, without Liu Xingchen’s presence, he had no information about the individuals who had taken action this time.
Otherwise, he could try to appraise the person targeting him. But it might have been just a coincidence.
In early November, the matter with the Ice Moon Valley had completely dissipated, and Jiang Hao met another person, Pei Yuan, who practiced the Blood Wish Path.
His aura was dense, and he had already reached the Golden Core Realm.
‘How could it have happened so fast?’ Jiang Hao was somewhat surprised.
When he first saw Pei Yuan, he was only in the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. But soon, he reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Now, they were already at the Golden Core Realm.
The Blood Wish Path’s progress couldn’t have been this quick.
Pei Yuan looked at him with a mocking smile as if flaunting his achievement.
As he got closer, Jiang Hao noticed that although Pei Yuan’s aura was dense, his cultivation was not solid enough, and his spiritual sense carried a hint of black energy.
His body also had a touch of death energy.
‘He won’t live for more than twenty years if he doesn’t advance further.’
Golden Core Realm cultivators had a lifespan of five hundred years, but with such advancement, Pei Yuan had less than twenty years left.
“Senior Brother Jiang, you haven’t reached the Golden Core Realm yet?” Pei
Yuan sneered.
“Junior Brother Pei, you are truly remarkable. Did you have guidance from your master?” Jiang Hao asked.
Pei Yuan suddenly changed the topic of their conversation. “Senior Brother
Jiang, you are only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm, while I’m in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm. According to etiquette, you should address me as Senior Brother, right? Isn’t that so, Junior Brother Jiang?” Jiang Hao remained silent.
Jiang Hao sensed the killing intent emanating from this person as if he was determined to kill him.
Did Pei Yun have a beef against him?
Was it because Jiang Hao hadn’t guided him in the past?
He appraised Pei Yuan.
[Pei Yuan: In the early stage of the Golden Core Realm. An inner disciple of the
Heavenly Note Sect’s Flowing Waterfall branch. He practices the Blood Wish Path cultivation method. He holds a grudge against you for not guiding him, and now, upon reaching the Golden Core Realm, wants to trample over you and make you regret it. He will come for you again at night. He no longer needs to stay in the Heavenly Note Sect, but before leaving, he wants to fulfill his wish and kill you to drain your blood..]
