Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1711: Chapter 1408 Jiang Hao: The Arrival of the Powerful, Sweat Drenching the Back_2 Chapter 1711: Chapter 1408 Jiang Hao: The Arrival of the Powerful, Sweat Drenching the Back_2 “People must have a certain self-awareness. Although I aspire for 'The End of All Things,' I alone can't achieve it, nor can one 'End of All Things' do so.

“After all, those who wish to live, they make up the majority in heaven and earth. We are simply creating minor disturbances.” 'The End of All Things' spoke with a smile, “But what about the person who obtains the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone? Might their mentality change one day?

“Since a mere thought from him could obliterate heaven and earth.

“When he feels that the world has rotten to the core, might he bring about the End of All Things?

“Furthermore…

“What do you think would happen if the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone were reversed?”

As he spoke these words, the figure of 'The End of All Things' nearly dissipated, his voice carrying a hint of mirth once more:

“When you possess the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone and are bound by heaven and earth, and when the four fierce beasts return to the millstone, would you not want to reverse the direction of the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone in your hands?

“Rotating it would erase the great Tao; might reversing it open a new grand path of heaven and earth before you?

“To transcend beyond the material world?”

The moment the voice ceased, 'The End of All Things' had completely vanished.

His avatar was extinguished.

It was easy to kill the opponent and prevent their escape.

But to protect the fierce beasts…

That was far too difficult.

After all, the opponent was a powerhouse who had taken that step.

Jian Xinghe lowered his eyes, his heart filled with uncontrollable rage.

Yet he was helpless.

The only consolation was that the opponent would not control the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone.

But, did such a person exist in this world?

With the appearance of the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone, perhaps no one could suppress it.

Now that the fierce beast has been destroyed, the seal should become even looser.

It could emerge at any moment.

Finally, Jian Xinghe sighed:

“A great era's arrival signals the season of turbulence.

“Even during the era of Sword God, the great era wasn't fully initiated.”

He remembered when Sword God awakened, he had mentioned this.

In that time, countless favored and blessed sons of heaven emerged, and the strong demonstrated their might between heaven and earth.

It wouldn't be long before Gu Changsheng, Lou Mantian, 'The End of All Things', and even Sword God, would step into that realm.

But then…

Everyone was defeated by Gu Jin, who traveled through all four regions and forcefully prevented the great era from commencing.

Those who died, died; those who were sealed, sealed.

He too disappeared.

The great luck of the great era was directly severed.

Thus, the cultivation world remained peaceful for countless years.

Sword God could not discern if Gu Jin's actions were intentional or not.

If they were intentional, then…

The favored and blessed sons of heaven would despise him, yet countless beings should be grateful to him.

Shaking his head, Jian Xinghe dipped his brush to start writing, intending to send the message out.

To the direction where the message originated.

——–

At night,

Jiang Hao found a place to rest in a rather secluded town.

To avoid disturbance, Jiang Hao entered the room of “Heavenly Note Sect.”

Then, under their gaze, he entered the secret code stone pieces.

Inside, nothing had changed.

In just a moment, Dan Yuan spoke up to inquire if anyone had any cultivation issues.

After becoming True Immortals, they were all comprehending the Dao intent.

They had some doubts about the Dao,

But Senior Dan Yuan had already explained it once before.

So there was no need to ask again.

Until they made further progress, it would be more appropriate to continue inquiring.

“Let's talk about the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone in the North,” Dan Yuan said with a smile, “A lot has happened in the North recently.

“Friend Jing's followers should have already gone to the North, right?”

Jiang Hao nodded.

He had already gone himself, so there was nothing to hide.

Especially since he had encountered the “Mountain Sea Sword Sect.”

Whether it be “laugh three times,” Gu Jin, or Jiang Hao Tian,

Essentially, all related parties were people of Jing.

“Some are seeking more relevant messages,” Dan Yuan said with a smile, “They can be exchanged for a reward.”

Jiang Hao pondered before speaking, “The four fierce beasts must not die.”

Gui Xianzi asked, puzzled, “Why not?”

“Because it's the strength of the four fierce beasts that drives the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone; their death signifies a return to the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone. At that time, no need for driving it, if managed properly, one could rotate the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone.” Liu began to explain.

Hearing this, everyone was somewhat surprised.

How did Liu, being overseas, know so much?

The crowd was puzzled, but Zhang, the fairy guard, spoke up, “Friend Liu must have heard this from Mr. Tao at Heavenly Tower. It's said that Mr. Tao left the Western Astronomical Academy and chose to seek the answers on his own because he knew secrets like this.”

Jiang Hao could somewhat understand.

“Do all the immortal sects have such material?” Gui, the fairy guard, asked curiously.

“No, this should be unique to the Western Astronomical Academy,” Star replied.

“Yes,” Zhang nodded,

“All originate from pages of an ancient book. A number of defectors from the Western Astronomical Academy must have discovered something, then left the academy.”

“So, are the pages of this ancient book recording the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone?” Gui asked.

Zhang nodded, “It should be so.”

For a moment, everyone was somewhat taken aback.

What exactly are the pages of this ancient book?

It had always felt extraordinary, but now, it seemed even stranger than expected.

“I heard The End of All Things has gone north, probably for the fierce beasts,” Liu spoke.

“Is he there to take the fierce beasts away, or to kill them?” Gui asked with curiosity.

That would depend on how well-informed the other party was.

Dan Yuan said with a smile, “He's gone to kill the fierce beasts.”

“That should be good, right?” Gui inquired.

Dan Yuan shook his head and spoke, “He has already killed them.”

Everyone: “….”

Even Jiang Hao was a little surprised this time.

He hadn't expected The End of All Things to not only be knowledgeable but also quick to act.

However, The End of All Things' strength was well-known.

Killing his incarnates might be easy, but preventing him from killing others was not.

It seemed clear that if The End of All Things obtained the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone, it would be over.

But no one had ever heard of anyone obtaining the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone.

After some thought, Jiang Hao felt the problem wasn't too big.

It would be fine as long as he either killed its incarnates or took away other fierce beasts.

The most critical point remained, however, to be the first to get the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone.

Otherwise, how could he sleep?

“If the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone appears in this world, the southern region will certainly become unbalanced.

“Gu Changsheng seems to be making a move there,” Gui mentioned.

Upon hearing this, Zhang immediately said, “Lou Mantian also wants to make a deal with Friend Jing.”

Jiang Hao was somewhat surprised, but let them continue.

“He said he can arrange for Friend Jing's men to dispatch evil corpses in the north to scout, but he wants to get his original body back,” Zhang said.

Get his original body back? Why come to me?

Jiang Hao was puzzled for a moment.

Then, speaking softly, he said,

“I haven't trapped his original body.”

Hearing that, Zhang understood his meaning.

She then handed over a string of techniques to him.

With these, one could control the evil corpses in the north.

“I heard many strong practitioners are heading north this time, almost everyone knows about the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone. Sunset Immortal Sect from the eastern region sent quite a few people, and the Immortal Clan probably needs to send even more.

“In addition, it seems the demons have sent strong practitioners as well,” Star said.

Jiang Hao sighed, with so many strong practitioners, he too was in danger.

Facing such peers would make him break out in a cold sweat.

They were beings who had been in their realms for a long time; a single moment of carelessness could mean death.

This gathering was almost entirely concerning this matter.

Zhang also said that the academy must have sent strong predecessors to the north.

In that moment, Jiang Hao felt a bit helpless.

If not for Zhang, his own plans would not have gone awry.

But it was his own idea to inform the immortal sects.

It felt like he was lifting a stone only to drop it on his own feet.

At this point, Yi spoke up,

“I have already arrived at the channel's guard post, now serving here. The path discovered by The End of All Things, they seem to be going deeper into the seal.

“However, those with too strong cultivation cannot enter for now; the entrance can't withstand it.

“Unless there is the core object of a formation.”

“What is the core object of a formation?” Gui asked immediately.

Jiang Hao too was very curious.

If he cannot enter right away, it would be somewhat troublesome.

“I checked, and our seal here is also an ancient formation.

“To enter this place, what's needed is an object of antiquity.

“The End of All Things was able to come in before others because of this.

“But they also cannot bring in powerful beings.” Yi pondered for a moment,

“The best would be the Ancient Stone.

“With this, I would be able to assist.”
