Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 790 - 790: The Real Corpse Realm

Although Dole’s sect seemed ordinary, the person holding the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl had asked for his protection.

Her individual strength might not be enough.

Since she sought that particular book, she needed to ensure everything went flawlessly.

Failure would have dire consequences.

Failing to acquire the book would affect future trade as well.

After all, she had read the contents of the book.

Moreover, she had already intended to use the promise made by that senior.

If she was delayed, it would be too late for regrets.

She decided to use her trump card.

She wasn’t fond of surprises.

“Young lady, here again? What do you intend for us this time?” Jing Dajiang sat under a tree in a reclining chair.

Yan Yuezhi bowed respectfully. “Senior, you promised me that you would fulfill one request for me.”

“Yes. If you want to become my disciple, I can arrange for someone to teach you.” Jing Dajiang smiled at her. “So, have you decided what you want?”

“Yes, I have decided, but it might be a bit troublesome for you,” Yan Yuezhi said.

After a short while, Jing Dajiang furrowed his brow as he looked at the student in front of him. “Are you sure?”

“Absolutely.” Yan Yuezhi nodded.

After some time, Yan Yuezhi left the backyard and departed from the Astronomical Academy.

She headed in the direction of the Mountain River Valley Sect.

Half a month later, she reached the sect’s premises, but she couldn’t find Dole.

After asking around, she found out that he had entered the Corpse Realm.

She was surprised.

He hadn’t even left the Corpse Realm, so why was Jing trying to protect him?

After thinking for a moment, she understood.

Jing was in the Corpse Realm too. He knew that Dole would be in danger after coming out of that realm. But why did he want to protect him?

It was impossible for her to guess.

Dole must be valuable. Otherwise, Jing wouldn’t be trying to protect him.

“It seems I’ll have to wait here.”

Yan Yuezhi picked up a book and began reading.

This book was about the methods of cultivation that she couldn’t comprehend before.

Yet now, as she read the book, she started to understand it.

Suddenly, she entered a state of meditation.

Half a month had passed.

Jiang Hao noticed that Hong Yuye wasn’t planning on leaving. He had no idea what she was here for.

He couldn’t even mine anymore.

He didn’t even dare to tend to the spirit herbs.

He was afraid of absorbing the spiritual energy accidentally.

Once or twice might be okay, but with frequent occurrences, somebody would surely suspect him.

Moreover, his tea supply was almost depleted.

He didn’t know what to do.

Although he had many spirit stones, it didn’t matter if he couldn’t find a place to buy tea.

He couldn’t brew tea for her.

Suddenly, he heard the waves again.

Gradually, the sound grew louder as if something was being crushed.

Jiang Hao turned to look at the mountain range. The sound was coming from within.

“The Corpse Sea?” He was surprised.

He hadn’t expected to get lucky. He had encountered the Corpse Sea!

Jiang Hao hadn’t imagined the Corpse Sea would be within a mountain range.

It was no wonder only a few people had seen it.

At that moment, Hong Yuye got up. “You want to enter that sea? Let’s go.”

Jiang Hao was speechless.

With Hong Yuye by his side, he would be much safer.

However, there were many things they couldn’t do. There was always some gain and a certain kind of loss.

Perhaps the greatest advantage of such a place might be encountering countless treasures that had remained un touched throughout the years. Perhaps just brushing past it might mean a lot of benefits. However, even if it were so, he had to give them up.

He feared he would get white bubbles.

Blue and green bubbles wouldn’t compromise his location. However, white bubbles might not be so safe.

After that, the two walked into the mine.

It looked like a normal cave to mine in.

However, the further they went, the louder the sound of waves became.

It was as if they were at a huge seaside.

After walking for a hit _ Tianø Han noticed the ground becoming damn

Moreover, the passage seemed to have changed.

The narrow passages from the time he had mined here were gone. They were replaced by a huge, spacious pathway.

After a few steps, an endless sea came into view.

Jiang Hao stood at the edge of the passage and sensed the bottomless abyss beneath him. It was eerie.

“Why is this sea so eerie? The Corpse Realm is full of vitality. This place is grim and lifeless.”

After observing for a while, Jiang Hao realized that he was at a cliff within the cave. The sea spanned below.

Jiang Hao didn’t dare to fly out on his sword recklessly.

He extended his senses and ensured there wasn’t any problem in the surroundings. He intended to go to the sea surface. “Senior, is this sea dangerous?” he asked Hong Yuye.

However, she didn’t respond.

Fortunately, the path didn’t look too slippery. He could go down and take a look.

As for finding the founder of the Divine Corpse Sect, he didn’t know how to begin.

Jiang Hao took a step forward and appeared above the Corpse Sea.

At that moment, he could see the cliff above.

It was not a very tall mountain peak.

“Senior, shall we go up and take a look?” Jiang Hao asked.

Hong Yuye looked at him without saying anything.

It seemed like he had to figure this out on his own.

After that, Jiang Hao arrived at the top of the mountain.

Only then did he realize that the mountain was connected to an endless continent, where everything was desolate and lifeless as far as the eye could see.

And the vast sea in front of him gave off a similar aura.

If the Corpse Sea was ahead, then what was the land behind?

He felt a bit lost.

The entrance below was connected to the Present Corpse Realm.

“This should be the coast of the Corpse Sea,” Jiang Hao said.

He remembered that the founder of the sect would be here, but he didn’t know how to find him.

Boom!

Suddenly, something rumbled and echoed in the distance.

Jiang Hao turned toward the direction and saw a person fleeing. He was being chased by three others.

“Friend, please save me,” said the middle-aged man.

He was injured and flew over to this side without stopping.

“Where are you escaping, you demon?” the three people behind him yelled angrily.

Jiang Hao watched as the man got closer and sighed.

Then, he unsheathed his sword.

As the man approached, he swung his sword.

He used the First Form of the Heavenly Blade, Moon Slaying.

Swish!

The man seeking help was killed with one slash.

The three pursuers were momentarily stunned. This sudden turn of events shocked them.

Jiang Hao turned to them. “Didn’t you call him a demon? I helped you get rid of him. Now, will you do me a favor in exchange?”

The three people were stunned.

“F-friend, you’re right.” One of them nodded in agreement. “Were you all here before, or did you just arrive?” Jiang Hao asked.

These people made him feel strange.

They seemed to carry an aura of death as if they were inhabitants of this place. He wasn’t sure if that aura latched onto whoever entered this place, or if they had to stay here a while for it to develop.

Perhaps the reason he didn’t have it might be because of Hong Yuye’s presence.

He wasn’t certain if it was an illusion, but he felt that this was the real Corpse

Realm..
