Chapter 1688: 1397 special channel I kneel before you Chapter 1688: 1397 special channel I kneel before you Jiang Hao seldom left the Cliff of Broken Hearts.
To learn of the outside world, he almost entirely relied on group discussions and Cheng Chou's descriptions.
Cheng Chou's news was always more up-to-date than his own.
Of course, it pertained to information commonly known to the public.
Seldom were ordinary matters discussed in their gatherings.
Recently, the group had been focusing on the Northern region, The End of All Things, the Immortal Clan, and the good fortune that clung to Gui.
Even Jiang Hao was surprised at how Gui's luck made everything go smoothly for her in the southern region.
In the group's trades, no matter what one sought, she always seemed to have a clue.
Regarding the appearance of secret realms, as long as it was in the southern region, she could find them blindfolded.
Such good fortune and opportunity were comparable to the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.
But the more it occurred, the clearer it became to everyone how urgent the situation was.
After all, ever since the events in the West, whenever Gui's luck was on the rise, typically, it boded no good.
Each incident was extremely grave.
It wasn't Lou Mantian making his presence felt, or the Corpse Clan sweeping through the West, it was ominous creatures revealing themselves, wreaking havoc in all directions.
Jiang Hao, observing their discussion about the Northern region, felt somewhat dispirited.
Because he too would soon set out for the North.
When the time came, what with everything happening at once, it would indeed be troublesome.
Although his cultivation was set to advance once more,
Facing old and powerful adversaries, he couldn't help but feel a bit intimidated.
Having spent a long time in a realm certainly meant one's strength was extraordinary.
After all, beyond the early stage of True Immortals, what mattered was enlightenment.
With the passing of time, enlightenment came more easily.
Thus, over countless years, even within the same realm, the disparity in strength could be significant.
In the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao gazed at Yi, who had returned, her face brimming with joy.
She had raised a sea fish.
Brought over from overseas by Zhenzhen, she said it was captured by the small girl.
Radiant with iridescent colors, she was particularly fond of it, keeping it in the Spirit Herb Garden.
From time to time, she would feed it.
Jiang Hao watched her in silence.
Previously, he had visited the Lawless Tower, seeking Hai Luo.
He asked if Hai Luo knew the secrets of the Sea Abyss.
Hai Luo indicated he did not.
Now, each of them possessed high levels of cultivation.
Everyone had participated in the training of the Lawless Tower.
Some wouldn't leave until reaching the True Immortal Realm, others until they became Human Emperors.
Zhuang Yuzhen, the one with the highest level of cultivation, had outright decided not to leave until reaching the Heavenly Immortal Realm.
Jiang Hao felt quite emotional.
These people were truly determined.
Heavenly Immortals…
To be so bold, they truly had no desire to leave.
However, the most peculiar among them was the lantern bearer.
His cultivation could only reach the Realm of Immortal Ascension.
He was influenced by his cultivation method, which was originally the Great Thousand Spirit technique.
Yet it seemed his spirit had never entered the Mind Control Core, but rather plummeted into the abyss.
The abyss was teeming with spiritual avatars.
This made him immortal and indestructible.
As long as the abyss existed, so did he.
But his cultivation was equally bound by the abyss.
He could not advance an inch further.
Jiang Hao had assessed that the abyss buried his divine soul, thus he could not be freed.
To ascend, he could learn the Reversal of the Great Thousand Spirit technique.
A simple relief.
But the improvement was limited, only up to the Vast Heaven Platform.
To ascend, he'd have to die once.
Return to the abyss, raise his cultivation.
Thus, without becoming an immortal, he couldn't leave the tower, and without leaving the tower, he couldn't advance to Human Emperor.
So there they were, at a stalemate.
Jiang Hao thought that in a few years, once he reached the Vast Heaven Platform, perhaps taking a life might prove useful.
“Senior Brother,” Yi noticed Jiang Hao staring intently at the fish and reminded him seriously, “This is a beast collar, you can't eat it.”
Jiang Hao looked at her and nodded, “I don't like eating fish.”
Watching Yi nod with a smile, Jiang Hao sighed.
Hai Luo had hinted to him to release Yi's seal, but he did not take it to heart.
Perhaps in the past, he would have respected the decision of Heavenly King, Hai Luo, after all, she was Hai Luo's daughter.
But…
Too many years had passed.
Jiang Hao had nearly watched Yi grow up.
He had no intention of doing something that would not benefit her.
If the benefit outweighed the harm, he would have removed the seal long ago, and once she was bigger, directly set her free.
Send her to the North.
They couldn't let all these people go to the same place.
That wouldn't be setting free.
Afterward, Jiang Hao seldom took care of spirit herbs; instead, he often sat in the Spirit Herb Garden, expounding on the Dao and techniques to Cheng Chou.
Cheng Chou's cultivation did not progress quickly, even after so many years, he had not advanced to the Spirit Refinement Realm.
He was still in the Primordial Spirit Realm.
Lin Zhi had already reached Immortal Ascension.
The divine item on him started to be utilized, gradually beginning to nourish in return.
But he was still concealing his cultivation, showing only the Primordial Spirit Realm, which looked much weaker than Cheng Chou.
At the Cliff of Broken Hearts, no one bullied him anymore.
Or rather, since Jiang Hao had become the top disciple, no one dared to bully Lin Zhi casually.
But Lin Zhi was hiding all his aura, just cleaning at the Cliff of Broken Hearts.
Seeing that Lin Zhi's heart was restless, Jiang Hao let him go to the library, where he could read books while cleaning.
Lin Zhi's ability for comprehension was not particularly high, so reading more could be quite beneficial.
Time passed by, day after day.
Year after year repeating.
The spring went and autumn came, seasons changed.
Thirty years later.
Cheng Chou finally made his preparations and started to advance.
Jiang Hao explained many cultivation methods to him; although the ascension process was somewhat complicated, fortunately, everything proceeded smoothly.
At the age of three hundred and ninety, Jiang Hao saw Cheng Chou become a Refining God Practitioner.
He was over four hundred years old himself.
Jiang Hao observed for a while and felt that ascending to the Spirit Refinement Realm was already not easy.
To reach Return to Void seemed quite difficult.
But with some effort, perhaps there was still a chance.
Afterward, Jiang Hao began to observe what Cheng Chou excelled at.
It turned out he was quite adept at applying techniques.
Hence, Jiang Hao decided to teach him a Dao technique to provide him with an offensive capability.
After searching the sect, he found nothing suitable.
He could seek out Star, but there were no gatherings at the moment.
In the end, he adjusted the Mountain and Sea Seal.
Extracting its offensive capabilities, he reorganized them, forming a mark using the harmony of the five elements within heaven and earth.
He named it, the Five Elements Sky Seal.
