Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 953: Gu Jin Might Merge With The Blood Pool

The red mist dispersed.

Jiang Hao walked forward step by step and held the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl in front of him.

No one dared to get close to him.

It felt as though the place was welcoming him back.

Jiang Hao arrived before the sticky ground. He knew that he would enter the Blood Pool if he continued forward.

After hesitating for a moment, he activated Myriad Nature Forest. Unfortunately, his divine ability soon stopped functioning.

Something was forming, but it wasn’t the Blood Pool.

He continued ahead.

“Do I have to enter the depths?”

The deepest place he had ventured into was to get the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl.

He didn’t know how deep the path went.

“Unfortunately, Old Man Corpse Sea is unwilling to cooperate.”

He had been to the fifth floor of Lawless Tower, but Old Man Corpse Sea refused to talk to him.

If he wasn’t curious about the tower, he would have killed himself already.

He was just a clone, so it was easy for him to die.

He just had to give up on his spiritual will.

So far, Jiang Hao had no leverage over him. Old Man Corpse Sea simply refused to speak.

He needed more time.

As such, it was impossible to know where he had encountered Gu Jin.

Fortunately, Hong Yuye had agreed to help him. Otherwise, Jiang Hao wouldn’t have dared to come here.

He walked in cautiously. He was walking on the Blood Pool, and the blood water was surging under his feet.

It was as if it would devour him at any moment.

After a long time, a figure manifested, It was Gu Jin.

Jiang Hao was a little worried when he saw him.

He worried that this person was evil and would kill him.

At this moment, the figure turned to look at him and smiled.

“Greetings, Senior.” Jiang Hao was in the form of Smiling San Sheng. He bowed respectfully.

“We meet again,” Gu Jin said.

Jiang Hao wanted to ask if he was evil, but he swallowed his words.

There were some things he couldn’t ask. If he did, he might get into trouble.

He decided to pretend like there was no problem at all.

There was no need to think about it too much.

“I want to ask you if there’s any other way to suppress Gu Changsheng other than the Hundred Nights Curse,” Jiang Hao said.

He didn’t want to ask that, but he had nothing else to ask.

“Yes, there is.” Gu Jin nodded. “Go find a divine tree. As long as the spokesperson stays under the tree, you can use the Hundred Nights Curse as a medium to compete with him. That way, you can quickly suppress Gu Changsheng. Divine trees repel each other, especially the Longevity Cursed Tree. It rejects other divine trees.”

Jiang Hao nodded.

That was something he had not expected to learn.

However, it was harder than suppressing the Hundred Nights Curse because it wasn’t like he could find a divine tree just anywhere.

Up until now, he hadn’t seen another tree as strong as the Longevity Cursed Tree.

The Immortal Peach Tree could only become a divine tree after another incarnation. So far, other than having a trace of the divine tree’s characteristics, there was nothing special about it.

He could also ask if there was another divine tree at the gathering.

Perhaps others knew something.

Gu Changsheng could return one day.

It would be quite troublesome if that happened when he wasn’t strong enough.

As long as he blocked the Hundred Nights Curse and Gui successfully suppressed him, everything would be okay.

She could also keep tabs on Gu Changsheng from time to time.

“Senior, you’re affected by the Blood Pool, right?” asked Jiang Hao. “Can you become one with it?”

“Not yet,” Gu Jin said.

Jiang Hao lowered his head.

That meant that it would happen in the future.

If he successfully cloned the Blood Pool, would Gu Jin be affected by it?

Jiang Hao wanted to appraise it.

After bidding farewell to Gu Jin, Jiang Hao walked inside.

Before, he didn’t care. After all, he had walked this path before. However, he felt worried at that moment. If Gu Jin was triggered, it would be dangerous.

Luckily, he did not encounter anything.

This place was still like a tidal wave.

Jiang Hao turned to look at the Blood Pool, and runes appeared before his eyes.

With the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl in hand, Jiang Hao’s progress was smooth.

There were a few times when he felt that the Blood Pool was targeting him, but it retreated.

Three days later, the power in his chest rapidly depleted.

The Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl in his hand seemed to suppress everything.

Jiang Hao saw blood before his eyes.

However, he did not suffer any injuries.

At that moment, a sea of blood appeared before his eyes.

That was his limit.

Jiang Hao stretched out his hand, and a blood-red lake appeared.

He used the Universe in a Palm ability. Purple energy burst forth and covered the lake.

In the end, the purple energy returned and gathered into a pearl in his hand.

“It’s done?”

Jiang Hao wiped the blood from the corner of his eyes. He felt that this divine ability was very harmful to his eyes.

He needed a lot of time to recuperate.

He appraised it.

[Blood Pool: The Blood Pool that created the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl. It is a part of the Blood Pool itself and contains all the misfortune and curse of the world. Similar to the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, this can be used to control the Blood Pool and also allow the power of the curse of the Blood Pool to approach the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl. There is a trace of Gu Jin too. He is divided into evil and good. His evil aspect is compatible with the Blood Pool, and his good aspect is too far away from his main body to suppress it. The seal needs to be suppressed with purple energy for a month. Otherwise, the evil spirit will develop consciousness and break through the seal.]

“The evil and good aspects of Gu Jin? How strong is he?”

Gu Jin had almost become a part of the Blood Pool.

It was no wonder he hadn’t merged into the Blood Pool right away.

Once he was unable to control his evil aspect, something big might happen.

If he merged with the Blood Pool, his evil and good aspects might blend together, and he might finally become a normal person.

Jiang Hao didn’t know if his guess was correct, but he couldn’t ignore Gu Jin’s strength.

Then, he disappeared from his spot.

Jiang Hao took out the clone of the Blood Pool with him when he returned to his courtyard. He felt that it might really be useful.

He prepared to travel overseas.

He had to think of a way to advance to the peak of the Immortal Ascension Platform.

“Who else has high-grade spirit herb seeds now?” Jiang Hao thought for a moment before looking for Bai Ye.

Since the other party wanted to befriend him, he would give him a chance.

As long as he could get 200 high-grade spiritual herbs, he would do away with the sealing technique he had placed on Bai Ye.

At night, Bai Ye was gazing at the stars when he frowned suddenly.

“What’s wrong?” Lian Qin asked curiously.

“My luck… It seems to have turned,” said Bai Ye eagerly. “I feel good, but I don’t know how it happened.”

He felt uneasy.

The next day, Lian Qin found out that the Spirit Herb Garden of the Cliff of Broken Hearts needed some high-grade spirit herb seeds.

Bai Ye knew his chance was here. The day had finally arrived!
