Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 815 - 815: The Hidden Remnant Soul

Qiao Yi looked at Bi Zhu, who was looking at the prize and frowning.

“Aunt Qiao, I don’t know… I feel like my luck just keeps getting better today,” said Bi Zhu.

“Isn’t that a good thing?” Qiao Yi was puzzled.

“It’s not… This sudden stroke of luck reminds me of something,” said Bi Zhu and looked at Qiao Yi. “There is something called ‘dying flash.”‘

Qiao Yi felt that Bi Zhu was just overthinking.

“I’m serious,” Bi Zhu said.

“Aren’t you the number one genius of the royal family? How can there be a problem when you are still only three hundred years old?” Qiao Yi asked.

“I just came of age…” Bi Zhu said. She tried her luck again. It was indeed extraordinary. “It’s just… I shouldn’t have such luck. It doesn’t make sense.”

“Princess, you’ve seen a Sage become an immortal, and you’re the first genius of the royal family. You’re also one of the wealthiest people in the South, and you even helped with the awakening of the Grand Earth Emperor. Isn’t it just natural for you to have such luck?” Qiao Yi asked.

Bi Zhu began to doubt herself. She thought for a moment.

“That’s true. I also helped the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation

Establishment to achieve that. I helped with sealing the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl and the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl. It’s only natural that I should be granted such luck…”

But no matter how she thought about it, she felt that something was not right.

It was not normal for a person to be repeatedly lucky.

“No… I have to go into seclusion and check what’s wrong with me,” Bi Zhu said. On second thought, she still had to rush over to inform the Astronomical

Academy.

If she was late, it would mean death for all.

Bi Zhu felt that it was all so difficult. She could’ve stayed in the South, but she had to rush to the West.

In the end, she decided to go to the Astronomical Academy first.

She would first solve the present issues. After that, she would focus on herself.

Fortunately, they just needed to rush and didn’t have other things to attend to.

Jiang Hao felt the wall. He was unsure if there was a mine on the other side.

If there was, he could use it to increase his cultivation points.

If not, he had to be careful.

The closer he got, the more he needed to pay attention to what might be on the other side.

If it involved some strange powers, he would stop.

This time, Jiang Hao was the only one left behind.

The others went out to explore.

As for the tree, no one dared to approach it again.

Three days later, Jiang Hao walked out of the mine and was about to reach the

place from before.

He needed to recover.

The tree could be seen from where he was.

‘A tree full of curses…’ Jiang Hao was worried.

He wanted to get closer to appraise it. If possible, he wanted to try to wipe its trunk.

If it was a divine tree, he might get something out of it.

However, he wasn’t in a hurry to go there. He had to see what was here first.

If there was a mine, then there was no need to approach the cursed tree.

Nothing was better than mining.

It had taken eleven days for the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower to produce blue bubbles.

The cursed tree was not comparable to the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.

The tree had already matured, but the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower was still growing.

After taking a break, Jiang Hao entered the mine again and began to swing his pickaxe.

Three days later, Jiang Hao stood in front of the wall. With a gentle push, he could see what was behind it from the cracks.

He sensed that there was no special power nearby. Breaking through might not be risky.

He took out the Immortal Mountain Sea Shield and the Yin-Yang Bracelet.

Jiang Hao used the Half-Moon Blade to gently pick at the wall. He scraped the stones off bit by bit.

A faint light escaped through the cracks.

When the light dissipated, he saw a karst cave. There was a spring in the center of the cave, and a small piece of wood was rooted in the water. Jiang Hao was surprised. There was only a piece of wood in the center.

After putting away the bracelet, he approached it.

The wood looked a little strange. There was a life aura surrounding it.

He appraised it.

[Longevity Wood: A branch broken from the Longevity Tree. It has the power to nourish a soul. A remnant soul is hidden inside. It will gradually recover by borrowing the power of the mountain range.]

Jiang Hao was surprised. This was what Liu Xingchen was looking for.

As expected, there were many opportunities in the mine.

The Longevity Wood and the remnant souls inside were treasures for growth.

This Longevity Wood could be considered a magic treasure. Perhaps he could try to wipe it.

As for the remnant soul inside, Jiang Hao didn’t plan to touch it yet.

He decided to go to take a closer look.

In the spring, Jiang Hao flew to the wood.

The wood was about two meters tall and as thick as an arm.

He touched it lightly. There was dust there.

He took out his cloth and gently wiped it.

As expected, a bubble fell.

[Spirit Sword +1]

The first one was a green bubble. There might be a lot of gains later.

As he wiped, bubbles fell one by one.

[Strength +1] [Spirit +1] [Cultivation +1]

[Lifeblood +1]

The Longevitv Wood was onlv so tall. It didn’t take lonz for Jianz Hao to finish

wiping it.

In the end, he obtained eleven blue bubbles.

He would’ve had to struggle three or four months outside to get that many.

He sighed and turned around to leave.

He had only planned to come here to mine.

Who knew that he could find treasures to wipe clean?

After packing his things, Jiang Hao walked out of the cave.

Inside the Longevity Wood, the remnant soul was surprised.

The person had left just like that…

He didn’t do anything. He had only approached to wipe the wood.

It wondered whether the person knew that this was the Longevity Wood.

It hesitated for a while and then decided to stop the person.

It was rare to meet someone here.

This person seemed extraordinary, especially because of the shield in his hand.

“Young man, please wait a moment.”

Jiang Hao had already reached the entrance of the karst cave.

He pretended not to hear it and waved his hand to seal the entrance.

He walked away.

The remnant soul was speechless.

He thought he had imagined it. He let out a sigh of relief as he walked out of the cave.

The remnant soul had awakened, and it might be recovering by now.

It was hard to say how strong it was, but he could definitely get into trouble if he got involved.

Jiang Hao did not need more problems. Taking the wood away would only add to his trouble.

He looked at the cursed tree from afar and decided to appraise it.

He decided to wipe the tree clean. If it wasn’t a divine tree, it wouldn’t be in this state.

He was very fast and arrived at the edge of the forest in no time.

At that moment, he heard the waterfall. The black water was at the edge of the forest now, and some water had even flowed into it.

The water was strange. It reminded him of the endless Black Sea.

After making sure that there was no one around, Jiang Hao took out the Heaven Fate Misfortune Pearl and walked in.

This time, everything in the forest seemed to be retreating as though it was afraid.

All curses bowed in front of Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl.

Meanwhile, Shangguan Qingsu, who had arrived in the South, suddenly felt something. The curse on her forehead began to flicker.

She was frightened.

Was the curse acting up this early?
