Chapter 553: Is There A Heavenly King Who Would Kneel And Beg For Mercy?

“I plan to choose the third option,” Jiang Hao said without hesitation. The third option was the most challenging and yet the safest.
Plus, it offered the benefit of stalling for time.
If he couldn’t obtain the Thousand Faces Treasure Fan, he could use this as an excuse to delay the inevitable.
He was aware of Feng Hua’s clone, but even that was at the Return to Void Realm. He wouldn’t be able to do anything even if he had ideas.
If Hong Yuye wanted to push him to make progress in the future, then he would have to reveal this.
BoxNovel.comIf he could point her to his clone, he could continue to postpone things.
“Smiling San Sheng is a member of The End of All Things?” Hong Yuye suddenly asked.
“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded.
However, he was a bit puzzled. Hong Yuye knew about Smiling San Sheng, but she hadn’t asked much about it in the past.
Why was she suddenly asking now?
However, Hong Yuye didn’t say anything more.
This left Jiang Hao with doubts, but he decided to see how things would unfold.
After finishing the tea, Jiang Hao thought that Hong Yuye was going to do something.
However, she just sat there and drank more tea in silence.
In the afternoon, Jianz Hao sensed a pressure.
He was paying close attention to every move Hong Yuye made because he couldn’t fathom her thoughts. This made him quite worried.
Hong Yuye finally looked over to him.
A cold smile played on her lips.
“You better not be patronizing me,” she said.
Hong Yuye’s figure began to fade.
Jiang Hao lowered his head and respectfully said, “Don’t worry, Senior.” Watching Hong Yuye leave, Jiang Hao felt quite helpless.
For now, he would put this matter aside and see how things progressed.
If he was urged again, he would bring out the information about Hai Ming.
If he followed him to find out more about The End of All Things, he might learn who was behind the stone tablet.
Hong Yuye’s ultimate goal was to collect all the stone tablets and find out the true owner behind them.
The real mastermind.
This person was perceiving treasures all over the world through the cryptic messages on the stone tablet.
After some brief thought, Jiang Hao observed the courtyard.
Now that the array had been upgraded, ordinary people would find it difficult to enter. This gave him some peace of mind.
After confirming the array was fine, he went to the cultivation room and began to advance.
This time, he achieved the peak of the Soul Ascension Realm within a year.
It was much faster than he had anticipated.
Now, if he wanted to advance again, he would have to wait for about two more years.
This was with the help of Holy Medicine. Otherwise, it could take even longer.
The next day, at noon, Jiang Hao walked out of the hall.
Now, his aura was hidden, and there was no trace of magical radiance from his spells.
However, there was a faint purple spiritual energy coming from him.
Even the Heaven Lock Technique had received some improvement during his advancement.
Although it could interfere with others’ talents, whether it could be used in actual combat remained to be seen.
However, it allowed him to better understand other techniques and magical arts, which was an unexpected gain.
Now that he had consolidated his cultivation, he could clearly feel that he could start learning the second technique of the Hong Meng Heart Sutra.
Sitting in the courtyard, he first checked his interface.
[Name: Jiang Hao]
[Age: 33]
[Cultivation: Peak 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: 2/100 (cannot be cultivated)] [Cultivation: 0/100 (cannot be cultivated)]
[Divine Abilities: 2/3 (cannot be obtained)]
‘Thirty-three years old at the peak of Soul Ascension Realm…’
If all went smoothly, he could enter the Return to Void Realm by the age of thirty-five.
Among the young disciples he knew, it seemed that none had achieved Returning to Void Realm yet.
‘I wonder where I would rank among the top disciples with my Peak of the Soul Ascension Realm.’
He had surpassed Senior Brother Bai Yi. He had probably surpassed Senior Sister Ye Yaqing too.
‘I should be in the top five among the top disciples now.’
After roughly speculating about his own strength, Jiang Hao stopped overthinking and began changing his supernatural abilities and techniques.
The Reappearance of the Hidden Spirit needed to be recharged. He also needed to restore the fight techniques in his wrist guards.
After a while, Jiang Hao had restored himself to his peak condition. This level of strength gave him a sense of security.
In the past, when he met traitors and twisted fellow disciples, he retreated. He worried at night that they might break into his residence.
Now, he would still retreat, but he had the strength to counterattack.
‘I should visit the Lawless Tower and meet King Hai Luo.’
Senior Sister Yinshe had mentioned it earlier, and he also wanted to ask about the Abyssal Sea.
On the way, he saw some disciples who seemed very busy.
He had seen them yesterday, but he hadn’t had the chance to ask them.
“I’ll go to the Spirit Herb Garden and ask later.”
Jiang Hao arrived at the Lawless Tower.
On the fifth floor, King Hai Luo seemed to be mocking Senior Sister Nangong
Yue.
Jiang Hao’s arrival did not catch his attention.
Perhaps he had gotten used to it after a long time, and he assumed that the person in front of him was no longer a threat.
Jiang Hao could understand.
He was not sure if he could threaten the Heavenly King, after all.
He could only try.
Jiang Hao went straight to the second cell. At this moment, King Hai Luo looked at him.
“Heavenly King, I hope you’ve been well,” Jiang Hao said politely.
“A mere Golden Core Realm cultivator! I have seen many come and go. Each one of them wanted something from me. A Golden Core Realm cultivator is just a Golden Core Realm cultivator, after all. I won’t give or say anything!” King Hai Luo pointed to the shackles on the ground. “Do you see these things? These can’t contain me! Not my limbs and not my pride, either.”
King Hai Luo laughed heartily.
Jiang Hao sighed and raised his hand. “I want to discuss something with you.”
In an instant, the atmosphere on the fifth floor changed.
Zhuang Yuzhen looked over seriously.
Even King Hai Luo involuntarily stepped back, though he quickly realized what he was doing and held his ground.
He raised his head slightly to show Jiang Hao that he wasn’t afraid of him. However, Jiang Hao saw the worry in Nangong Yue’s eyes.
It was as if this simple gesture was terrifying to them.
Nangong Yue was puzzled. What was going on?
Clearly, nothing was happening. Why did she feel that he was dangerous?
King Hai Luo laughed. “Speak up, then.”
Jiang Hao sighed. He could only speak softly. “The Heavenly King’s fate, Miao
Anxian.”
The reason Hai Luo was here was because of Miao Anxian. It would be easy to take him out of the Lawless Tower and ruin his plans.
He didn’t know what would happen after that.
King Hai Luo was momentarily stunned at Jiang Hao’s words.
Then, he burst into laughter. “Are you joking with me? Is this enough? I’ve never seen anyone use such words to make someone submit. Do you think so little of me? I’m the Heavenly King! Is there a Heavenly King in this world who will kneel and beg for mercy with these words?”
King Hai Luo picked up the chain of shackles and sat on the ground. “You ask, I’ll answer,” he said softly..
