Chapter 1388: Why Are You Still Borrowing Spirit Stones If Your Brother Is So Amazing? (2)

“If the Heavenly Spirit Tribe doesn’t want a conflict, I think they’ll likely make a move.”

The Heavenly Spirit Tribe’s advantage was not as great as the Dragon Clan’s overseas.

…

At the Heavenly Spirit Tribe, an elder’s aura surged wildly.

Finally, his Dao energy transformed into the Great Dao markings before it subsided.

At that moment, he frowned slightly.

“This is the limit for now. More time is needed.”

The Heavenly Spirit Tribe was blessed by heaven and earth, and their strength was rising rapidly.

In the past, they had reached a height that others could not compare to.

They were slowly recovering in this era.

“We need to lie low.” The old man made a decision.

Although formidable, they needed more time.

In this Great Era, everyone was growing, including the Heavenly Spirit Tribe.

Unlike the Fallen Immortal Clan, which only faced certain immortal sects, they had to contend with not only human forces but also the troublesome Dragon Clan.

The Twelve Heavenly Kings, the Heavenly Tower, The End of All Things, and the Dragon Clan were all overseas.

If they continued to stay, it would mean potential conflict with the Dragon Clan.

Although the sea realm was vast, it could easily be restricted by the Dragon Clan.

With this decision made, the elder left his retreat and appeared in a grand hall.

They had suffered heavy losses in a previous battle.

Although somewhat recovered, they still lacked mid-tier strength.

Otherwise, they would have expanded to seize resources.

After some hesitation, he summoned eight people.

“Clan leader,” they greeted respectfully.

Their powers were all above the immortal realm.

Most had just ascended. While a few had always been immortals but had only recently absorbed sufficient opportunities.

He had only emerged because he had made it to the True Immortal Realm.

“I called you here today for something important,” the old man said.

“Is it because of the immortals?” asked a powerful middle-aged man.

“The Immortal Clan informed us of many divine artifacts and suggested a cooperative effort to seize resource-rich areas, which would benefit us. But they are also using us. We should respond, but it’s still early. We have a more crucial task.” The clan leader looked at them somberly.

“What is it?” a young woman asked.

Her strength was outstanding. She was almost unmatched among the eight.

The others were equally curious about what required their immediate attention.

“The Dragon Clan has likely reappeared. They are different from us. They don’t need to recover. They can just return.” The clan leader looked at them. “They value overseas territories and may suppress us if we remain. Thus, we must relocate. East, south, west, or north—one of these regions should suit us. We need time, but you must investigate to find where we can go.”

“How about the West?” asked a middle-aged man. “There are immortal sects there, but the area is closest to the sea. It’ll take less time to relocate. As long as we don’t incite conflict with the Astronomical Academy, we’ll have a good foothold there.”

The clan leader nodded. “A good choice. The West is vast enough for us. But we need a closer look. You and your wife will go and check it out.”

“I, Nangong Qian, accept your orders.” A middle-aged man bowed respectfully.

“I, Situ Jingjing, accept your order,” said a woman and bowed.

“The rest will pair off to the East, South, and North to find suitable locations,” the clan leader said.

They nodded and swiftly departed.

With the tasks a.s.signed, the clan leader vanished from the hall and headed to a forbidden area, which was accessible to only a few.

At that moment, he was looking at a stone tablet. There were two words written on it that spelled “Immortal Court.”

“It seems the Immortal Clan aims to rebuild the Immortal Court, relegating humans to a lower tier. This time, they won’t come themselves. Without a Human Emperor, can humanity withstand it?” The old man sighed. “According to the records, even the Heavenly Spirit Tribe had to cooperate with the Human Emperor against the Immortal Clan. They’re very powerful. This time, the Immortal Clan can return, but the humans can’t produce another Human Emperor.”

He thought a lot about his clan’s future.

The Immortal Clan, Dragon Clan, Black Dragon Clan, the Heavenly Saint Sect, and other emerging clans were all formidable.

They had to act swiftly.

…

In the early morning, a red sun rose between the forests and chased away the dimming stars.

Sunlight streamed into a wooden cabin, where Jiang Hao slowly opened his eyes. He sighed.

“I’ve comprehended it, but… I can’t quite draw it.”

Perhaps due to the formidable nature of this talisman, he could barely recall it and was unable to grasp the strokes.

He tried to recall it but felt it was quite unfamiliar. The runes were quite difficult to understand.

He thought about it deeply.

However, he decided to ask Mi Lingyue instead of trying to make sense of it.

After all, Mu Longyu had promised that she would guide him.

Clearing his mind, Jiang Hao stepped onto his balcony and looked at the sunrise with emotion.

The sunrise was not as spectacular as it was overseas, but it was still beautiful.

Then, he stretched and breathed in the fresh air of the Great Era.

The sect was gradually rebuilding itself and shedding its ruins.

Soon it would be restored. Jiang Hao needed to contribute, especially to the Spirit Herb Garden, so his seniors would not scold him upon their return.

Looking down, he noticed a spirit beast hanging upside down from the peach tree.

It was drooling onto the peaches.

He decided to wake it up, so it could eat the peaches.

Looking down at the courtyard, he saw that the spirit beast was awake. It was still hanging upside down from the tree with its arms crossed.

It stopped drooling.

“Master, you’re awake? I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. In this Great Era, you mustn’t slack off,” the spirit beast said.

Jiang Hao looked at it. “Did you eat?”

“Not yet.” The spirit beast immediately jumped onto the table. “Master, you finally remembered. Are you going to tie me up?”

Jiang Hao watered the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower and looked at the spirit beast with a sigh.

The spirit beast, who had been at the Foundation Establishment Realm, was not at the Soul Ascension Realm.

His cultivation realm was even higher than his displayed cultivation.

“Do your friends respect you in the underworld?” Jiang Hao suddenly asked.

“Of course,” said the spirit beast proudly. “My friends in the underworld all know that I, Lord Beast, am the first great demon in the Great Era. I’m the future great demon of heaven and earth, and the ancestor of all demons. They naturally respect me.”

“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded. “Shouldn’t such a great demon at the Soul Ascension Realm go out and make a name for itself?”

“Master, you must be joking. How can a spirit beast be a demon ancestor?”

Jiang Hao got up and did not say anything.

Instead, he fed the Longevity Fruit with the Dao energy before leaving the courtyard.

He instructed it to eat the peach before he left.

The Longevity Fruit had not changed, though it had grown larger.

Jiang Hao walked along the riverbed that he had dug.

The spirit beast was swimming in the river happily. The spiritual energy in the water flowed into its body.

Jiang Hao arrived at the Spirit Herb Garden and found Liu Xingchen standing there.

The aura on his body was extremely strange.

It was as if four different forces were tempering his body, and his Return to Void Realm was extremely powerful.

Observing closely, Jiang Hao saw traces of a True Dragon, a black and white energy, a blood-red aura, and a demonic energy.

Was he using these four things to increase his cultivation realm?

His physical body had also grown strong.

This was very dangerous. As he grew stronger, the four remnant souls would also grow powerful.

This could lead to trouble, but Liu Xingchen thrived on risk.

If one knew Liu Xingchen, one would know how he was. He even risked his own life for amus.e.m.e.nt.

“Junior Brother, you have a task.” Liu Xingchen smiled.

Jiang Hao was surprised. “A mission for me?”

‘Is it a mission to repair the sect?’ He thought.

“It’s related to the river outside,” said Liu Xingchen with a mischievous smile.

The River of Deathly Silence?

Jiang Hao did not understand why the sect would send him to the River of Deathly Silence.

“That river is not an ordinary river. Why do you think the sect would send you there?” Liu Xingchen asked.

Jiang Hao was speechless.
