Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness Chapter 359 – Finally, A Golden Legend

Chapter 359: Finally, A Golden Legend

There was no mistake.

Jiang Hao found that Bai Ye’s cultivation had indeed dropped from the mid-stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm to the early stage.

This was abnormal.

‘His cultivation might have dropped from the late stage to the middle stage due to the curse. But this… this is strange. Unless…’

Unless he deliberately caused the drop in his cultivation.

Jiang Hao could clearly sense his own strength. His sealing technique would not cause his cultivation to drop so severely.

An attack that caused someone’s strength and realm to drop so rapidly would definitely catch the attention of the Law Enforcement Hall.

‘Is he intentionally lowering his cultivation to get the Law Enforcement Hall involved? No… the Law Enforcement Hall has been quiet lately.’

Jiang Hao suddenly thought of something. The abundant spiritual energy in his courtyard.

‘Could it be possible that he is deliberately using his cultivation to fuel mine as a way to ask me to spare him?’

Jiang Hao frowned. There was no way Bai Ye knew he was hiding his cultivation realm. So, how had Bai Ye known that it was him?

Were there any peculiar things around him that gave it away?

He only had the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower in his courtyard that was of any significance.

‘Bai Ye is extraordinarily knowledgeable about spirit herbs. Did he recognize the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower? If he did, what does he think it means?’

Jiang Hao thought for a moment but had no answer. He couldn’t figure out what Bai Ye intended.

‘If he saw the flower and assumed it was Elder Baizhi’s, then he must think she is backing me up. Maybe that’s why…’

Although it seemed that way, he knew that he was just bait for Elder Baizhi.

The big fishes had already taken the bait, and the smaller fishes had become more cautious. It all depended on when Elder Baizhi intended to close the net.

‘If he thinks he offended Elder Baizhi by attacking me, then it makes sense that he wants to lie low and repair the damage he did…’

After hesitating for a while, Jiang Hao turned and left. He would observe the situation further and then decide what to do.

If Bai Ye’s cultivation fell from the Primordial Spirit Realm to the Golden Core Realm, it would bring trouble.

The Law Enforcement Hall would take action.

Bai Ye was a ruthless individual.

While sacrificing one’s cultivation could be swift, recovering it would take decades.

Back at his residence, Jiang Hao began to craft talismans while also studying the comprehensive language guide.

Occasionally, he visited the library and offered spirit stones to the person in charge of the library for more information.

He asked about learning various languages. The in-charge recommended some books to him, which turned out to be useful.

They also recommended some individuals who were well-versed in different languages.

Throughout the Heavenly Note Sect, a single piece of spirit stone could make people very helpful.

Unfortunately, even though he tried to learn languages from others, Jiang Hao still couldn’t find the language he had heard in the Corpse Realm.

In early May, the Immortal Peach Tree began to bloom, and Cheng Chou returned with Xiao Li.

“Senior Brother Jiang, this is for you,” Xiao Li handed over a box of sweets.

When Jiang Hao took it, he felt like he had traveled back to the past. Xiao Li’s mother would always send something for him.

He opened the box and found misshapen sweets inside. He appraised them.

[Tasteless sweets: After Jiang Xiao Li returned, she remembered her grandmother’s words and brought gifts back for you. Since she only knows about sweets, she asked her neighbors about it and brought back three boxes of sweets.]

Jiang Hao was speechless.

This time they weren’t poisonous, but they were indeed tasteless. Still, he ate one.

They tasted very bad.

Xiao Li was looking at him expectantly, so Jiang Hao praised her. He then closed the box and handed it back. “You can have the rest.”

Xiao Li accepted the sweets. “Where is the spirit beast? I brought something for it too.”

“It should be coming back in a couple of days,” Jiang Hao said.

The spirit beast returned a bit late, which made Jiang Hao worry if it had caused any trouble.

But there was something he was more concerned about. Xiao Li’s name had been different in the appraisal result. Instead of Xiao Li, it was Jiang Xiao Li. She had really taken his surname.

It wouldn’t be a big deal, but it might be difficult when she was set free from here. He shouldn’t have interfered in the past.

Two more days passed, and the spirit beast and Lin Zhi finally returned.

The spirit beast came running over to the Spirit Herb Garden.

“Master, I brought you a gift,” it said and took out beef jerky.

Jiang Hao took it and appraised it.

[Beef Jerky: Your spirit beast snatched this from a gang of bandits and got drugged with sleeping pills in the process.]

Jiang Hao was speechless.

Whether it was the spirit beast or Xiao Li, the things they brought back for him were equally strange.

However, they both had different experiences.

With Xiao Li, there were no problems. Cheng Chou and Xiao Li had returned to her old house and spent some time at her parents’ graves.

As for the spirit beast, it had an eventful return.

Under the pretense of assisting Lin Zhi, it wreaked havoc everywhere. It bullied everyone within a ten -mile radius.

Lord Beast’s name was taken in fear.

Not only did the spirit beast bully ordinary people, but even those with immortal connections. Even the disciples there received lessons from it.

“Infamous indeed.” Jiang Hao sighed.

However, he also understood Lin Zhi’s plight. Fortunately, Lin Zhi hadn’t given up.

“Which sect were the disciples from?” Jiang Hao asked the spirit beast.

“They’re from Azure Mountain. They had two Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators. But they were aware of me and showed me proper respect.” The spirit beast munched on the pastries Xiao Li had brought

Jiang Hao nodded.

However, he felt strange looking at the beef jerky. Last time, the spirit beast had brought him the Bitter Fruit.

He couldn’t decide whether this was progress or failure.

“Master, I’ve been away for so long. Did you prepare a gift for me because you missed me?” the spirit beast asked.

Jiang Hao smiled and nodded. “Yes. You’ll find out tomorrow.” “What about me?” Xiao Li asked.

“When the peaches ripen, they are all yours, ” said Jiang Hao. Both Xiao Li and the spirit beast jumped up in joy.

The next day, Jiang Hao tied the spirit beast.

For safety, he first appraised it and confirmed that it would cost him 490 spirit stones a day for forty-nine days. A total of 24,010 spirit stones were needed.

Currently, Jiang Hao had 46,018 spirit stones.

“We’re starting this again?” asked the spirit beast.

It soon made itself comfortable.

“Master, isn’t this too much? Can I eat them some other day?”

It took the spirit beast until the evening to finish eating the 490 spirit stones.

The sect’s competition began, but Jiang Hao didn’t participate.

He was busy shuttling back and forth between his house and the Spirit Herb Garden.

However, he heard that the present competition was much fiercer than before, and it was expected to last for over a month.

When forty-nine days had passed, it was already the end of June.

Jiang Hao approached the spirit beast.

At this moment, the spirit beast was sleeping soundly. It smacked its lips as if it wanted to eat something.

The golden bubble around it merged into Jiang Hao’s body.

[Golden Legend +1]

He appraised the spirit beast.

[Spirit Beast: Possesses extremely high intelligence. At the peak of Foundation Establishment Realm. It has immense potential. It has a dormant bloodline of the evil beast. If it is fed with 490 spirit stones daily for 81 days, the bloodline can be further awakened. Feeding it spirit stones every day will increase its goodwill towards you. It currently feels reverence toward you.]

Jiang Hao was puzzled. How could immense potential exist in a mere spirit beast?

‘490 spirit stones a day for eighty-one days.’ A total of 36,960 spirit stones.

Currently, he had around 22,000 spirit stones left.

Shaking his head, Jiang Hao untied the spirit beast. He could only wait and figure something out.

Now, he only lacked one more gold bubble to get another divine ability. After the Immortal Peach Tree’s incarnation, he could have more benefits..
