He might have gone looking for the Charm G.o.ddess again.

Out of curiosity, Jiang Hao asked if the Charm G.o.ddess could still be found.

She had remained in the Corpse Realm, which was a very strange place.

No one knew what would happen when the Great Era arrived.

“She can be found, but you’d need to enter the Corpse Realm for that,” said Hong Yuye.

“Can immortals still enter that realm?” Jiang Hao asked.

He was not referring to immortals like Hong Yuye but just ordinary immortals.

“After the Great Era, many restrictions will either disappear or be lifted,” Hong Yuye said.

It seemed it was possible to enter that realm again.

They talked about other things. Hong Yuye instructed him to take good care of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower before disappearing from sight.

Jiang Hao remained deep in thought.

Afterward, he tidied up the courtyard.

The roof also needed to be repaired.

This year, Xiao Li would not be able to eat peaches from the tree.

The next day.

The next day, Xiao Li, who was supposed to look after the peach tree, walked to the courtyard and was stunned.

Even the big dog accompanying her was anxiously pacing on the ground.

The peach tree had lost not only its leaves but also its fruit.

There were fewer branches on it.

It seemed that the peach tree, which had been growing peacefully for so many years, could not escape disaster either.

Jiang Hao stood in the courtyard. He looked at Xiao Li, who was in a daze. He did not say anything.

“Senior Brother…” Xiao Li looked at Jiang Hao with a pained face. She looked like she was about to cry. “Is the tree dead?”

“No.” Jiang Hao shook his head. “It will grow again next year.”

“Will it really grow next year?” Xiao Li was curious.

“In spring, the peaches will grow again,” said Jiang Hao.

“Senior Brother, why can this tree grow back next year, but my parents can’t come back?” Xiao Li asked in confusion.

Jiang Hao fell silent.

Why indeed?

The cycle of spring growth and autumn harvest was the way of the Dao.

Birth, aging, sickness, and death were also part of the Dao.

Everything occupied a part of the Dao.

They were the same, yet different.

But Jiang Hao did not answer Xiao Li’s question.

He just asked her to clean up around the peach tree to help it grow properly.

Jiang Hao had to go out for a while.

He had thought that he could stay in the sect, but after comprehending the Dao, there were many things to do.

He had to learn the sixth form of the Heavenly Blade, the Blade of Opening the Heavens, and now he had to test it. After that, he needed to learn the Mysterious Yellow Curse, test it, and retrieve the Heavenly Halberd.

He had learned the sixth move of the Sky Blade, Galaxy.

It was time to test it.

After that, he still had to master the Black-Yellow Curse, test it, and retrieve the Heavenly Halberd.

After accepting the mission from the Task Hall, Jiang Hao instructed Cheng Chou to continue taking care of the Spirit Herb Garden.

…

A month later, around mid-July, a storm raged in the Misty Desert somewhere in the south.

Chu Chuan braved the storm and moved forward. His clothes were stained in dried blood and were torn.

He looked haggard.

He had been in this desert for a long time and had been pursued relentlessly.

His pursuers did not seem in a hurry to kill him as if waiting for the right time.

This gave him a chance.

As long as he kept getting stronger, he would have a chance to escape.

He had not given up along the way. He could not die here.

No matter how harsh the environment was, it could not dampen his fighting spirit.

No matter how hard it was, he had to keep going, get stronger, and escape the danger.

If he was lucky, he might even counterattack.

His only option was to find a secret realm in this Misty Desert.

He had heard that there were strange secret realms here.

Before his pursuers caught up with him, he had to find one, or disaster would befall him.

As long as he could survive, there was still hope.

“You’re quite tenacious. It seems your cultivation has grown stronger in this environment. Keep it up, and you can become a more delicious meal for us. Hahaha!” said a mocking voice from behind.

It seemed like everything was under their control, and Chu Chuan was just their prey.

“What are you? Any one of my friends can turn you to dust.” Chu Chuan used a secret method to send a message to his pursuer.

“Your friends? Does that include your Senior Brother? Let them come. I’ll let you see their corpses. Then, you’ll understand that you’ve survived this long only because of my mercy,” the voice from behind said confidently.

Chu Chuan was furious.

If he was not weaker than his pursuer, he would have already killed it.

Just as he was about to retort, he suddenly felt darkness before his eyes and collapsed.

The surrounding sandstorm closed in but inexplicably stopped short of touching him.

Behind him, in the endless desert, an old man with wrinkled skin walked. His eyes shone with golden light.

He was determined to capture Chu Chuan.

Underneath the desert lay countless flying insects under his control.

Chu Chuan could not escape, nor could anyone take his prey from him.

He looked ahead and sneered. “You can shout all you want for your Senior Brother to save you. Let’s see if he comes.”

Just as he was done, a calm voice said from behind, “There’s no need to shout for me. I’m already here.”

The sudden voice made the old man flinch.

He quickly turned around and backed away.

Swarms of flying insects surged to form a defense.

But there was no attack, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Only then did he see that the one who had spoken was a young man who seemed to be in his early twenties.

He also seemed to be at the late stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

The fact that he had not noticed the newcomer immediately startled him.

“How did you appear behind me?” the old man asked.

Although the young man seemed stronger than him, it did not matter.

His own cultivation was only temporarily suppressed and would soon recover.
