Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness - Chapter 2119

Chapter 2119: Chapter 1609 Special Channel History: Do you want to listen to what you are saying?

Before entering the Blood Pool, Jiang Hao glanced once more at the depths of the Devil’s Den.

Just like before, he didn’t feel any negative emotions towards it.

Perhaps entering would reveal the nature of this place.

But even without entering, he already had some guesses.

It should have been formed by nature, not by human hands.

After that, Jiang Hao and Heavenly Note Sect walked over the Blood Pool.

The Blood Pool concealed countless sorrows and despair.

“Did the appearance of the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl also aim to deal with that being?” Heavenly Note Sect asked on the way.

“For the old world, indeed it was, but in today’s world, perhaps not,” Jiang Hao replied.

The people of old had a heart to save the world, while today’s people have a heart to destroy it.

It’s somewhat different.

According to rumors, the appearance of the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl was not due to the great era brought by Cheng Yun.

It was during the struggles of many other races.

Someone crafted the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl in secret.

All for the purpose of creating chaos in the world.

When successful, it indeed brought chaos, but it also united many races against a common threat.

That too was a sorrowful era.

How many people were left in this Blood Pool?

Obsession, resentment, despair, misfortune, curses, all ultimately transformed into a world-destroying pearl.

Jiang Hao did not say more but led Heavenly Note Sect forward.

Yet this time, it seemed there was an unexpected situation.

After walking for some time, they still did not see Gu Jin.

“What’s wrong?” Heavenly Note Sect asked.

“Gu Jin changed locations,” Jiang Hao said unexpectedly.

Heavenly Note Sect laughed, “Could he be avoiding you?”

“Unlikely. Senior Gu Jin is the mightiest in the world, even the Human Emperor and Helpless Heaven acknowledge his superiority. Now, he is the foremost person in the world, broad-minded with a clear path in the Tao. I came to express thanks, it’s not likely to miss him,” Jiang Hao spoke seriously.

Heavenly Note Sect covered her mouth with a slight smile.

Then she said, “Haven’t you noticed, you speak quite well; you used to talk to me like this too.”

Hearing this, Jiang Hao was taken aback and said, “Am I not praising you now, madam?”

“No,” Heavenly Note Sect looked at Jiang Hao and said seriously, “What are you praising?”

“Madam is truly beautiful,” Jiang Hao smiled, “The red of the Blood Pool just perfectly complements your stunning presence.”

Heavenly Note Sect looked at the person in front, squinting her eyes, “Aren’t you afraid of being heard?”

Jiang Hao looked around and said, “No worries, they shouldn’t be nearby. Let’s keep looking.”

This time, Jiang Hao soon found Gu Jin.

He stood there, resembling a statue.

“Senior?” Jiang Hao called out.

At this time, the Tao on the statue changed, and it became a living person.

He turned and looked at Jiang Hao and Heavenly Note Sect, calmly saying, “Young people have no shame, speaking such cheesy words. Clearly, you’re not even a hundred years old, right?”

“You won’t say you are several hundred years old, how could several hundred-year-olds be so shameless?”

Jiang Hao: “….”

Heavenly Note Sect: “….”

“Senior, we came this time to discuss some matters,” Jiang Hao started to speak.

“I know, you are married, and this is your partner beside you, indeed a fine young lady,” Gu Jin looked at Heavenly Note Sect, speaking calmly: “This young girl’s cultivation is higher than yours; you should work harder.”

“I won’t keep you longer, go back and cultivate well.”

“Return when your cultivation is strong enough, come find me then.”

“Having a partner can easily affect your cultivation progress.”

“It seems you will spend even more time.”

“Fortunately, I’m not in a hurry; you can cultivate slowly.”

“Go.”

Jiang Hao stood still, not moving, but said, “The reason for this trip was indeed to introduce my wife to you, senior.

“Secondly, what you mentioned is indeed reasonable, having a partner indeed impacts cultivation.

“Initially, I was just an average Taoist Practitioner, but now I have not only established the Tao but also started to detach from the Heavenly Dao, forming my own path.

“I married at around four hundred and am still not five hundred years old now.

“In just a few decades, I have traveled further than in the previous four hundred years.

“The impact my wife has on me is truly significant.”

Gu Jin, looking at the person in front, sighed and said, “With such speed, it’s just about average; if there’s more to say, say it all.”

Jiang Hao pondered for a moment and said, “This junior understands Cheng Yun’s story and understands what he intends to do now.

“Moreover, he is not of the Saint tier.

“He established the Tao and gathered Human Dao, even equaling the Heavenly Dao.

“Of course, he is also a Saint.

“Thus senior, if you wish to defeat him, you must first become a Saint, then attempt to merge with the Heavenly Dao, giving you a thirty percent chance of success.

“If, during the merging of the Heavenly Dao, you gain a deeper understanding of the Tao, you could have a fifty percent chance.

“Moreover, if Cheng Yun fails to complete himself, then there’s actually a seventy percent chance of success.”

At this moment, Heavenly Note Sect suddenly asked, “How long approximately to reach such a level?”

Jiang Hao truthfully responded, “About two to three years.”

Heavenly Note Sect nodded slightly and said, “In two to three years, Senior Gu Jin only needs to become a Saint, then merge with the Heavenly Dao, and after progressing a bit more, the odds are quite high.”

“Yes,” Jiang Hao nodded earnestly.

Gu Jin wore a puzzled expression.

He then looked at Jiang Hao and said, “Isn’t the confrontation with Cheng Yun your responsibility?”

Hearing this, Jiang Hao nodded, “This junior indeed plans to confront Cheng Yun, but I’m a Saint short.”

“What does that have to do with me?” Gu Jin asked.

“Helpless Heaven and the Human Emperor say Senior Gu Jin has exceptional innate talents, unmatched across time, far surpassing them, incomparable to anyone, so senior can become a Saint,” Jiang Hao answered matter-of-factly.

Gu Jin smiled, “They have a good eye.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief, “Then, senior, in these two to three years, which year do you plan to become a Saint?”

After speaking, Gu Jin was momentarily stunned.

He wondered if he had heard wrong.

“What did you just say?” he asked.

Jiang Hao repeated once again, “Then, in these two to three years, senior, which year do you plan to become a Saint?”

“How many years?”

“Two to three years.”

“Become a Saint in two to three years?”

“Is that too long?”

“….”

After a moment of silence, Gu Jin said, “Who did you say mentioned that I could become a Saint?”

“Helpless Heaven and the Human Emperor,” Jiang Hao replied.

Gu Jin nodded, saying seriously, “You might have misheard; I heard them say that they themselves can become Saints in less than a year.

“They love to downplay themselves; a couple of compliments and they might even show you how they become Saints in half a year.”

“Both of them said you were a senior, so you should be even more extraordinary,” Jiang Hao said.

Gu Jin: “…”

Two to three years, do you realize if you’re speaking human language?

If I could become a Saint, I’d have to thank them first thing.

After a pause, Gu Jin said, “What do you want a Saint for? To have a Saint stall Cheng Yun?”

Jiang Hao shook his head and earnestly said, “I want to witness the complete Saint Path; everything else I’ve mostly seen, only the Saint Path remains.”

“When will Cheng Yun arrive?” Gu Jin asked.

“Just within two to three years,” Jiang Hao reiterated.

He had already repeated it multiple times.

Gu Jin was silent for a moment, then said, “I can try to help you, but you need to tell me, when you went to my era, what identity did you use?”
