Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The appearance of these two people made Jiang Hao uneasy.

Their strength was beyond his imagination.

Fortunately, he still had the Thousand Miles Teleportation Talisman and the golden rings.

If they made a move, he would escape.

“We are disciples of the Divine Corpse Sect. I’m Yun Qi, and this is my senior, Lan Qian,” Yun Qi said with a smile. “You don’t have to worry. We just want to ask you some questions.”

“If you’re afraid, you can leave,” Lan Qian said.

“Seniors, it is an honor for me to be able to answer any questions you have,” Jiang Hao said politely.

‘Divine Corpse Sect…’

He recognized them. So, these people were disciples of the Divine Corpse Sect who were at the heavenly Note Sect. One of them seemed to be in the middle stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm but was comparable to Shang An in aura. was she Gui?

Jiang Hao felt anxious. He hadn’t expected to find Gui so quickly. If there was a call for gathering right now, he would be in trouble.

“I heard that the Human Yuan Formation underwent a major change before in the Blood Tide Forest,” Lan Qian said.

“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded.

“Can you tell us about the general situation there?” Lan Qian asked.

Jiang Hao roughly explained the recent incidents in the Blood Tide Forest. He told them about the appearance of a terrifying aura, the mine collapsing, and finally the vortex.

“What was the source of this… disturbance?” Yun Qi asked.

“The Enlightenment Spring,” Jiang Hao said.

“How did you manage to leave from there?” Lan Qian asked.

“A senior warned me about it,” Jiang Hao said.

He mentioned Shang An and that he was helping that senior with mining in the cave.

“Shang An? Where is he now?” Lan Qian asked. “He left, so the mining work also stopped.”

“Did he make you mine for free?” Yun Qi asked. “Well…” Jiang Hao hesitated for a moment. “He did give me some spirit stones.”

“How much did he give you?” Yun Qi asked.

The two fell silent. It seemed that they were both trying to analyze Jiang Hao’s words.

However, they didn’t delve deeper into the matter. They were just curious, and they knew someone in the Foundation Establishment Realm was here from Heavenly Note Sect. So, they sought him out.

“A thousand five hundred is not a small amount. Where are you planning to go now?” Yun Qi asked.

“It’s not safe to carry spirit stones on me, so I wanted to get away from here as soon as possible,” Jiang Hao truthfully said.

Yun Qi laughed. ‘Does he really think a thousand five hundred spirit stones were a lot?’

It wasn’t a big amount, but people might assume he had more and might target him. It was understandable that he wanted to get away.

There was also a possibility that he was lying when he had much more than a thousand five hundred spirit stones. Yun Qi didn’t mind.

“Mining is actually quite lucrative, isn’t it?” Yun Qi glanced at Lan Qian. “Senior sister, let’s stay here and mine as well.”

“I am not staying here and digging in a cave.” Lan Qian shook her head.

“Me neither, but there’s someone here who can mine, right?” Yun Qi glanced at Jiang Hao. “Stay here and help us mine. I’ll take forty percent of the earnings.

Senior Sister will take forty too. You can have twenty percent of the income. As for selling the ores, we’ll handle it. I’ll buy any excess at a low price. How about

“You don’t need to worry about your safety,” said Lan Qian.

It wasn’t like Jiang Hao could refuse. “Of course. Thank you very much, Seniors.” He hesitated. “Twenty percent is already a lot for me.” rlWventy percent was too much. It made him feel unsafe.

“Twenty percent isn’t that much,” Yun Qi said as they walked ahead. “You can try to save up and buy a Heaven Rejuvenation Pill. In a few years, you can advance to the Golden Core Realm.”

Lan Qian didn’t say anything. It seemed like she didn’t care much about it.

Jiang Hao felt that they were extremely wealthy.

Shortly after, they arrived at the entrance of the mine.

“Is there anything special about this mine?” Lan Qian asked.

“There are some peculiarities.” Jiang Hao told her what he knew. He explained the use of the rooster.

“Space peculiarities?” Yun Qi was curious. “What does it look like after the change? Have you been inside?”

“Some people did go inside. They said they were chased by demonic beasts. Occasionally, they heard human voices, but they didn’t know what was being said,” Jiang Hao said.

“Forget it… let’s not make things complicated. Let’s just mine,” Yun Qi said.

Jiang Hao took a hoe and entered the mine once again.

It felt strange. He thought he was going to escape. Unexpectedly, he was back here again.

Although his share seemed to be less when compared to the other two, it was actually a lot more than before.

Previously, the earnings were divided among six people. So, he had gotten less than twenty percent of the income.

Now, with only three people, twenty percent was quite a lot.

It was already early October, and there were about three more months left.

Jiang Hao checked his interface.

‘Already over eighty?’

At this rate, he might reach a hundred points soon even if he couldn’t go to Heavenly Stele Mountain again.

‘If I can accumulate eight to ten points a month, it will be quite high after three months. However, I would still need to go back to advance to the next stage.’ Jiang Hao was delighted.

Even if he had to return to advance, he didn’t mind. It was a step closer to becoming stronger.

By surpassing the late stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm, he would be on par with Manlong.

He could face Manlong head-on with that kind of power.

After returning, he could also extend the seal on Bai Ye to make it last longer.

However, he needed to hide from Gui at any cost. Fortunately, he had wiped away all his traces.

The Universe in a Palm left no trace after being used. Otherwise, it would have been dangerous.

Jiang Hao began mining. This time, there were no spatial fluctuations. Although he didn’t understand why, it was a good thing.

Jiang Hao didn’t go out of the mine except to deliver the ores. He didn’t even know what was happening outside.

“What has happened?” Jiang Hao was surprised.

It had been a month, and this had never happened before. It made him feel uneasy.

He turned to look at the rooster.

He was stunned. The rooster was fast asleep.

“Does it not sense any changes while sleeping?” Jiang Hao couldn’t believe it. But soon, he saw that the rooster showed signs of spiritual energy fluctuation. This was a sign of a breakthrough. ‘It’s trying to advance?’

Jiang Hao was taken aback. Without saying a word, he picked up the rooster and the ores and prepared to leave the cave.

As soon as he had walked a little distance away, he noticed that the mine had changed.

The path he had come from had disappeared..
