Jiang Hao stood there for a long time.

Some of the men walked around him to avoid getting in his way.

They saw that this young man was dressed in silk and satin. He didn’t speak much but had a powerful presence.

He looked like a nobleman.

They couldn’t offend him.

When the house was completely destroyed, Jiang Hao sighed softly.

He felt like a part of him was gone forever and would never return.

At that moment, he walked to the old man who was taking a break in a corner.

“Grandpa, may I ask you a question?”

The old man was eating some snacks. He raised his head to look at the person who had talked to him and got up in a panic.

“Young man, don’t startle me like that. My heart can’t take it.”

“I apologize,” Jiang Hao said gently. “I just wanted to ask you about the people who were living in that house.”

He pointed in the direction of his childhood home.

“You mean the old man and the old woman?”

“Yes. Did they move away?” Jiang Hao nodded.

Since he was here anyway, he wanted to see them.

“They left a few years ago.” The old man sighed.

Jiang Hao lowered his head in thought.

He thanked the old man and left.

As he walked out of Fallen City, he glanced back.

If this city also disappeared one day, what would be left of his past?

People went through many things in their lives, and memories haunted them. Everyone had some regret that they couldn’t overcome.

The cultivation world was no different.

Whenever he remembered his lowest point, he would look back at his roots and remember where he had come from.

There was no other way but forward.

The path of immortality was right before him.

The past was best left behind. Life was for the living.

Jiang Hao sighed heavily and took a step forward.

At that moment, a light shone around him, and he disappeared from where he was.

He was as bright as the sun and as fleeting as a speck of dust at that moment.

Jiang Hao seemed to have learned a lot and learned nothing at the same time.

However, the opportunity that Shang An had given him had paved his path.

It seemed like his power could burst out at any time.

When he was back in the courtyard, Jiang Hao didn’t go to the Spirit Herb Garden right away. Instead, he sat under the peach tree and looked at the fruits.

He felt that his power had become clearer, and everything was within his grasp.

Although it was strange, he seemed to have become stronger.

His cultivation was more solid and refined than before.

‘I wonder how long it will take the tree to bear fruit after becoming a divine tree.’

The thought troubled him.

If it couldn’t bear fruit once a year, should he just wait and do nothing?

“It takes that tree three thousand years to bloom, another three thousand years to bear fruit, and three thousand years to mature,” said a voice suddenly.

Jiang Hao jumped up from the chair.

He could smell the familiar scent even before he could see her.

He turned around and saw Hong Yuye.

“Greetings, Senior.” Jiang Hao lowered his head and bowed.

Hong Yuye looked at him. “The bad luck on you is intense today.”

Jiang Hao was puzzled.

He had not touched anything unlucky this time.

Then, he thought of the Shangguan Clan.

“What did you do?” Hong Yuye asked after sitting down.

“I went to Fallen City,” Jiang Hao said.

“For what?” Hong Yuye looked up at him.

“We first found the stone tablet in Fallen City. I went to see if I could find out anything more about it,” said Jiang Hao.

Hong Yuye nodded. “What did you find?”

“Nothing at the moment,” Jiang Hao said.

Hong Yuye chuckled.

Then, she asked about the gathering and learned about the Dragon Cave.

“The Dragon Cave is about to open?”

“Yes. In the next month or two.”

“Are you ready?”

“Almost.”

Jiang Hao had done everything he could, but he was not as strong.

No matter what he did, it was very difficult for him to accumulate a hundred points in order to advance further.

Therefore, he had to make do with whatever cultivation realm he was at the moment.

As for the Mountain Sea Seal, it could be upgraded.

If he sold some of his things overseas, he would be able to exchange them for a lot of spirit stones.

It was definitely not enough for incarnation, but it was still possible to digest some of the Holy Master’s divine soul.

That way, his strength and power would increase by a lot, and the seal would be even more powerful.

It would be useful when going to the Dragon Cave.

Hong Yuye did not say anything.

Jiang Hao, on the other hand, was making tea for her.

She did not ask for September Spring, so he brewed something else.

The peach tree would take three thousand years to bloom, three thousand years to bear fruit, and another three thousand years to mature.

In total, nine thought years…

Was there really a need for incarnation if it took that long?

It was useless even if he could become an immortal instantly.

He would anyway be stronger in nine thousand years than he was at the moment.

After pouring tea for Hong Yuye, Jiang Hao sat down and poured himself a cup.

He was curious whether he could get more information on Hong Yuye if he appraised her.

However, he never had the chance.

He didn’t dare to appraise her when she was awake.

So, he had to wait until she fell asleep. He could appraise her when he was so deeply asleep that she couldn’t hear him call her name.

He had made it to the Immortal Ascension Platform. It was possible that the appraisal might reveal more information about her.

Hong Yuye took a sip of tea. “Your sect is going to start the selection soon?”

“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded.

“Do you want to participate?”

“Yes. I also want to test my strength.”

“Is that so? Are you confident in yourself?”

Jiang Hao thought for a moment. “I’m not sure yet. Lately, I’ve been thinking of observing some seniors in the same realm as me. I’ve just advanced to the peak of the Golden Core Realm, so I might not have an advantage.”

Hong Yuye laughed. “Cautious as ever, I see.”

“It’s safer to be careful.” Jiang Hao lowered his head.

Overseas, in the Heavenly Tower, Mr. Tao walked to a pavilion and sat down.

Zhu Shen followed him. “Mr. Tao, the Dragon Cave is about to open. Shall we watch from afar?”

Mr. Tao nodded.

“Will the Great Thousand God Sect succeed?” Zhu Shen was curious.

“It’s hard to say, but there should be quite a number of people entering that place. Everyone is confident. It’ll just depend on who loses in the end. But we still have to be careful. There might be some unusual changes in the Dragon Cave,” Mr. Tao said after some thought.

Zhu Shen was puzzled.

Mr. Tao did not elaborate on it.

Instead, he said, “Send a letter to the Twelve Heavenly Kings. They have more information about the Dragon Clan. It might be helpful to us. Also, ask them how we can contact the Saint Bandits.”

“The Twelve Heavenly Kings might not cooperate with us,” said Zhu Shen awkwardly.

Mr. Tao took out the Four Treasures of the Study and wrote a letter. He handed it to Zhu Shen. “Give them this. They will come to Heavenly Tower. You just need to tell them what we need.”

Zhu Shen took the envelope in disbelief.

However, Mr. Tao never played around. It meant that Mr. Tao had a bargaining chip. Perhaps he knew how they could ascend to immortality.

“By the way, have you made arrangements for the Heavenly Spirit Tribe?” Mr. Tao suddenly asked.

“Yes. They’ll give it their all,” Zhu Shen said.

“Alright, we’ll wait.” Mr. Tao looked at the endless sea outside and sighed with emotion.

He hoped that he wouldn’t have to flee this time.

For a moment, he understood how a certain someone felt.
