Chapter 631: Making Nine Nether A Servant

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Heavenly King Taomu’s past was not without adversity.

Becoming a member of The End of All Things was not unexpected, but what was surprising was that even after becoming a Heavenly King, his thoughts hadn’t changed.

This was somewhat unusual because, at the Heavenly King level, one usually focused more on profit.

As long as the interests aligned, many things could be done.

In theory, they would prefer the stability of the cultivation world, which would conflict with The End of All Things’ goals. However, Heavenly King Taomu seemed different.

It was unlikely that anyone could coerce him, given his formidable strength as a Heavenly King. Even the entire Heavenly Note Sect couldn’t take him down.

The Heavenly Note Sect had managed to imprison someone at that level: King

Hai Luo.

Sometimes, Jiang Hao felt sorry for Heavenly King Hai Luo. It was said that he had been brutally attacked when he was weak.

Nowadays, any Branch Master could easily defeat him.

“Recently, Heavenly King Taomu took charge of matters related to the Heavenly Note Sect. Do you know about this?” Jiang Hao asked.

Madam Gong shook her head. “I’ve been here for nearly a hundred years, and my knowledge of recent events is limited. But the fact that Heavenly King Taomu has taken charge is no small matter. Perhaps he has prepared for it. I’m not sure if there’s anything related to this. Maybe I can find out something.” “Stone tablet,” said Jiang Hao calmly.

“Stone tablet?” Madam Gong was perplexed. “A mission in the south for that?” “Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded.

“In that case, the one who took charge must be from the Great Thousand G.o.d Sect, probably Feng Hua. He is highly attentive to matters in the south,” Madam Gong said.

Jiang Hao was surprised. “Go on.”

“The stone tablet is a mysterious artifact. While many people know about it, very few have actually seen one. No matter how much you look for it, you can’t obtain one,” Madam Gong said.

“Once The End of All Things finds a special opportunity, they release the stone tablets. We don’t know the specific reasons, but it can be confirmed that when The End of All Things releases a stone tablet, it’s usually because of a significant mission. This mission can strengthen them and bring them closer to their ultimate goal. Such missions usually involve collaboration with the Great Thousand G.o.d Sect. Among the three thousand members in the southern region, Feng Hua is the most outstanding one. It seems they have a special mission related to the stone tablets, and they will definitely fulfill that mission.”

“Is the stone tablet from The End of All Things?” Jiang Hao asked.

“I’m not sure, but they do possess some of them,” Madam Gong said.

Jiang Hao sighed inwardly. It seemed that he would have to deal with the higher-ups of The End of All Things.

At present, Heavenly King Taomu was the most noticeable figure. He couldn’t talk with them on equal footing. It would be very difficult to get information from them. It seemed he needed to plant a spy there.

Fortunately, he could ask Chi Tian.

“How much do you know about Feng Hua?” Jiang Hao asked.

Meeting Heavenly King Taomu was impossible, but Feng Hua was still within reach. Right now, the plan was to provoke him and try to communicate as equally powerful individuals.

Madam Gong, unlike Tian Chen, had extensive knowledge of numerous people, including Feng Hua

“Feng Hua… Their real name is Ming Tian Xue. Their cultivation realm is unclear, and they have concealed their true strength deeply. They have never used her full power, so it’s difficult to predict how strong they really are. Due to their high talent, they have mastered the Great Thousand Spiritual Technique. They have many avatars. Finding their main body is almost impossible, but you can try an ambush.”

“An ambush?” Jiang Hao was quite curious.

“Yes.” Madam Gong nodded. ‘When Feng Hua was young, they were cursed with a peculiar curse that takes away their beauty every twenty years. They need to consume a special fruit from a particular tree. Although there are subst.i.tutes, they are difficult to find. It consumes a lot of their time.”

“Their beauty?” Jiang Hao narrowed his eyes.

‘Feng Hua is a woman?!’

“Feng Hua is most likely a woman,” Madam Gong said. “I’m about 80% sure of it.”

Jiang Hao didn’t care about Feng Hua’s gender. It didn’t change anything. “What about the tree?”

He was worried he couldn’t find Feng Hua’s weakness, but now he had stumbled upon it.

Madam Gong was truly exceptional. She knew many things.

“This tree just so happens to be my property. If you want it, I’m willing to give it to you, Senior,” Madam Gong said respectfully.

Jiang Hao looked at her carefully. ‘What do you want in exchange?”

She clearly wanted to make a deal.

“I want to be useful so that I can help you, Senior.”

Jiang Hao was speechless. ‘Is she worried I’ll make a move?’

She’s too strong. He had no plans to engage further. Hong Yuye wouldn’t always be around. There was no need to take risks. The more they interacted, the more problems would arise.

Furthermore, he didn’t intend to kill her. After all, he couldn’t. He was thinking of planting a spy here.

Madam Gong quickly said, “Nine Nether can be tamed. With your strength, you can do it. It won’t harm you in the least.”

“Nine Nether?” Jiang Hao didn’t know what she was talking about but quickly figured it out. He took out the sealed creature from his pocket. “You mean this?”

“Y-Yes,” Madam Gong said.

“Tell me about its origin,” Jiang Hao said.

He had never heard of Nine Nether before. At first, he had no plans to take it with him, but now, it seemed that Madam Gong wanted to use it as a bargaining chip.

To obtain Feng Hua’s weakness, he had to take Nine Nether with him.

If Nine Nether was left behind, Madam Gong would surely die.

She might also not be willing to let him take away the object that was Feng Hua’s weakness.

Jiang Hao wondered if he had made it too obvious that information about Feng Hua was too important to him.

He wasn’t sure what to do, but he wanted to start by understanding Nine Nether’s origin.

With the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl with him, he might actually be able to take it away.

“Nine Nether is a powerful ghost created by many powerful races in ancient times. It feeds on the spirit and can possess all living creatures. It’s difficult to remove and is lethal. It can strike unexpectedly. It could become a rare type of servant or underling if used well,” said Madam Gong.

“How strong is it?” Jiang Hao asked.

Something that can detect the Heavenly Fate Misfortune pearl was definitely not weak.

“It is strong enough to wipe out a whole clan in one night,” said Madam Gong.

Jiang Hao was speechless.

‘Wipe out a whole clan in one night?’

He couldn’t control something like that.

How could Madam Gong withstand something like that for such a long time? Had the creature become weaker?

He thought about Madam Gong’s sudden arrival in this place.

“You were unable to control it, so you came here to seek the help of the True Dragon?”

There was a True Dragon here, and if the Seven-Day Village had the power to suppress it, it must have been because of that dragon.

Rumors had it that nothing was hidden from Madam Gong. She knew everything. So, knowing about the presence of a True Dragon in Chaos Stone Island was not impossible for her..
