Jiang Hao looked at the three deceased individuals and returned to his original appearance.

He was worried that these people would spread the news about Smiling San Sheng.

Having encountered the Fallen Immortal Clan once before, he didn’t want to experience it again.

He wondered if they had a unique method of transmitting names.

‘Logically, they shouldn’t. With my divine powers, I would be able to sense anything they try to do.’

While he cleaned up, he picked up the storage treasures.

The Fallen Immortal Clan’s man at the peak of Soul Ascension Realm hadn’t been as strong as he had expected.

After picking up the three storage treasures, he set the bodies on fire.

Only then did he deactivate his divine ability.

At this moment, the pitch-black sky was covered by light, and rumbling sounds approached from a distance.

Many strong individuals from the Heavenly Note Sect flew out.

From a distance, the interweaving of their powers continued without interruption.

Even he wouldn’t dare to face these forces directly.

“It seems they haven’t broken in.”

As long as the great formation wasn’t breached, he was still safe.

He headed to the Spirit Herb Garden again.

Since the great formation was still intact, it meant that the Heavenly Note Sect and the Blackheaven Sect were sufficiently prepared, and a sudden attack was unlikely to happen.

He spent a long time watering the spirit herbs with moonlight and dew before sitting cross-legged on the ground.

He didn’t intend to return to the mountain gate temporarily. It was too dangerous.

During this time, he had purchased a lot of extra items for planting the spirit herbs.

Unfortunately, he was still lacking over ten thousand spirit stones.

“I wonder if the storage treasures I obtained tonight can fill this gap.” Jiang Hao murmured softly as he took out three storage pouches.

After a quick look at the first one, he found only some spirit herbs and nothing

How could this be?

He looked at the others and found the same thing.

‘Did they use it all before coming here?’

The lack of spirit stones disappointed Jiang Hao. When the people had attacked him today, he had almost felt excited that he might get more spirit stones.

Unfortunately, there were no spirit stones.

‘I’ll have to earn it myself.’

Fortunately, he still had Heaven Rejuvenating Pill to sell. It might make up for the shortage.

The abnormality lasted for a very long time. The brightness in the sky fluctuated, and it seemed like ten days had passed outside.

However, the situation had changed. The force had become even more complex now.

Hong Yuye told him that no one from the Heavenly Note Sect and the Blackheaven Sect could control it.

During this time, he hadn’t been to the mountain gate, and the guards had changed to stronger disciples after the outbreak of a major battle.

However, the grand competition had not stopped.

But the change in the situation seemed to have brought a lot of trouble to the Blackheaven Sect.

“If the situation cannot be reversed, perhaps we can no longer stay here.”

The Grand Earth Sovereign’s power should be as vast as the mountains and rivers and as bright as the sun and moon. But now, the power was accompanied by darkness and a fallen atmosphere.

They could only observe the situation but couldn’t act on it.

A few more days passed, and many disciples of the Heavenly Note Sect ignited the fire of their blood and spiritual energy to resonate with the great force in the high sky.

Although the flames were quickly extinguished, the two great forces completely merged. But it was no longer vast and boundless. The Blackheaven Sect felt helpless.

In the sky, Gu Yun’s body was covered in blood. He looked at the situation unfolding and laughed loudly.

“Nangong Wenwu, what if you defeat me? You can’t change anything. You’ll miss the chance and Xuanyuan Clan will never rise again.”

Being interrupted during the build-up of the force was very damaging. Nangong Wenwu’s face darkened. “You’re really seeking death.”

A loud rumbling spread in all directions and many people in the Heavenly Note Sect were worried.

“Senior Brother Kendo, do you think the Grand Earth Sovereign can still appear?” asked the man who was the first to meet Kendo at the gate.

He was Zuo Ping, an inner disciple of the Thunder Fire Peak.

Lately, this senior had been guiding him in his cultivation and had even given him a new technique.

Now, he had started practicing swordsmanship, and his progress was rapid.

His junior was about the same but with a different technique.

“It seems to be a failure, but if someone succeeds in integrating the great force at this time, that would be a true success. Do you think our sect would be grateful if someone did this?” Kendo asked.

“It’s hard to say, but Blackheaven Sect will definitely be grateful. I heard that this great force has brought many benefits to our sect this time, so they should also be happy,” Zuo Ping said.

“If they’re not happy, then wouldn’t this person be at a loss?”

“It’s hard to say. After all, the Grand Earth Sovereign has appeared. Isn’t his appearance beneficial to us ordinary cultivators?” Zuo Ping said.

Kendo smiled and nodded. Then, he remembered something. “I recall what my master said.”

“Ah? What did he say?” Zuo Ping asked curiously.

Kendo smiled and moved his body, saying:

“When I had just started and was still ignorant, my master told me that if you truly don’t understand, go and look at the mountains. Go and look at the sea. At that time, I was learning the sword, so to understand the sword, I saw the mountain as a sword and the sea as a sword. Later, I walked across mountains and crossed seas. Still, I couldn’t comprehend it until I saw the figure in the mountains and a reflection in the stream. That’s when I realized the sword I needed to comprehend had always been in my own hands. At that time, I saw the mountain as a mountain and the sea as a sea.”

Zuo Ping didn’t understand, but he still exclaimed, “Your master is really amazing! ”

“Hahaha.” Kendo laughed. “I really like you, Junior Brother. But do you know what others saw me as from that moment?”

“What did they see?” Zuo Ping asked.

“They saw this.” Kendo pointed his two fingers like a sword and pointed high toward the sky.

In that instant, a shocking sword intent soared into the sky.

Zuo Ping widened his eyes. He could hardly believe it. He seemed to see the vast and boundless sword shadows.

“Mountain and Sea Sword Force…

Boom!

Endless rumbling echoed and shook the entire Heavenly Note Sect.

In the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao was astonished.

He looked up and saw a longsword piercing the sky and resonating throughout the eight directions.

Soon after, screams and roars echoed from the sky.

However, everything quickly vanished, and the entire Heavenly Note Sect stood prepared.

All defenses were activated, and all the experts stood ready.

The entire Cliff of Broken Hearts erupted with an unprecedented force as if preparing for a calamity.

The terrifying sword’s momentum could crush everything. Everyone was in a panic, but Jiang Hao remained unfazed.

In an instant, the beast and Xiao Li were by his side.

“Master, this… this sword doesn’t show any respect to me,” the beast said.

Xiao Li nodded, but she wasn’t scared.

However, she was still startled by the scene. It was the first time she had seen such a massive sword.

The reason Jiang Hao didn’t flee was that the sword intent had arrived a long time ago. He knew the person. If he really intended to attack the Heavenly Note Sect, he would have done it long ago.

As expected, the sword momentum did not attack anyone. Instead, it began to integrate with the great force.

A white figure streaked across the sky and headed toward the source of the sword’s intent.

Jiang Hao knew that it was Elder Baizhi.

‘I thought the Sect Master would appear. Even in this situation, they haven’t shown up. I wonder if something unexpected has happened.’

He had thought that the appearance of Kendo would definitely be enough to draw out the Heavenly Note Demoness.

It disappointed Jiang Hao.

He was curious about the current status of the Sect Master.

Of course, more than that, he was eager to see their strength.

He was still too weak now and needed to become stronger..
