In October, there wasn’t much to do in the Corpse Realm.
On this day, Jiang Hao continued mining as usual.
He had received an additional thirty thousand spirit stones from Dole.
There were a total of a hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones to be divided. He alone had over two hundred and forty thousand.
He was extraordinarily wealthy. To be safe, he asked Guan Zhongfei to ask around for September Spring.
It had been a while since Hong Yuye visited, and he didn’t know what new demands she might have when she finally did.
It was better to be prepared.
Clang! Clang!
Jiang Hao kept swinging the pickaxe.
He suddenly felt something strange.
He turned to look behind, and his heart almost stopped.
At some point, a red and white figure appeared behind him.
She looked at him intently.
“Keep going. What do you think I’m here for?” Hong Yuye said teasingly.
Jiang Hao didn’t dare to act rashly.
Her sudden appearance caught him off guard.
When exactly had she appeared?
Fortunately, there hadn’t been any fluctuations around.
“Senior, greetings.”
He couldn’t mine anymore.
“Why did you come here to mine?” Hong Yuye asked.
“To earn spirit stones,” Jiang Hao said.
“Is that so?” Hong Yuye said. “Didn’t earn much this time either?”
“Not exactly,” Jiang Hao said. “I earned forty thousand spirit stones this time.
It’s enough to buy two packs of September Spring for you, Senior.” “Oh?” Hong Yuye was surprised. “You bought September Spring already?”
“It’s not easy to find in the Corpse Realm, but I’ve told someone to ask around. I have prepared Red Azure tea.”
He indeed had prepared Red Azure tea.
Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao for a long while. Finally, she asked, “What’s your cultivation realm now?”
“Middle stage of the Golden Core Realm,” Jiang Hao said.
“Middle stage?” Hong Yuye chuckled. “I thought you were already in the late stage. ”
She stepped outside.
Jiang Hao collected his things and quickly caught up.
“Have you attended any gatherings recently?” Hong Yuye asked along the way.
“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded.
Hong Yuye stopped and extended her hand.
Jiang Hao hesitated for a moment. Then, he handed over the notebook.
“Give me the stone tablet, ” Hong Yuye said as she received the book. Jiang Hao didn’t dare to hesitate and immediately handed over the stone tablet.
Hong Yuye frowned.
“You’re quite adept at stirring things up,” she said.
Jiang Hao lowered his head. It was difficult to explain, so he remained silent.
A red light enveloped the stone tablet, and the tablet gradually recovered.
A rune entered the stone tablet.
Before long, she returned the stone tablet to Jiang Hao.
Hong Yuye flipped through the book. She asked Jiang Hao to explain.
“Currently, Senior Dan Yuan is focusing on the Sage’s Pages. How much do you know about these pages?” Jiang Hao asked.
“What about you?” Hong Yuye asked.
“I’ve learned a bit from the Ancient and Modern Book. It’s said that when these pages appear, changes are inevitable. If it’s ordinary, it’s manageable.
However, unpredictable changes might occur. Things like the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl and Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment have all been recorded in these pages,” Jiang Hao said truthfully.
“The ancient pages are indeed very special, and there are many rumors. But no one knows their true origins,” Hong Yuye said calmly.
“Should we search for them?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Do you want to search for them?” Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao and smiled. “Are you protecting someone in the west because of this?” “Senior, your insight is as sharp as ever,” he said.
Hong Yuye chuckled. “Tell me about your plans.”
“Dole is a very useful person. My relationship with him is good. Moreover, his luck is extraordinary, so he’s bound to achieve something in the West. Now is the perfect time to invest in him. Besides, I suspect there’s a plan to end everything in the West, and the people from the Great Thousand G.o.d Sect are paying attention. We have Chi Tian overseas. In the west, we have Dole. If there’s an opportunity, I will arrange to have some people in the east and north. This will provide us with enough channels to find the person behind the stone tablet. We are only lacking a bit of time,” Jiang Hao said earnestly.
Hong Yuye was astonished.
She remained silent for a long time. “You’re truly dedicated.”
Jiang Hao bowed his head. “I’ll do anything for you, Senior.” “Your beast can’t compare to you in lies.”
Jiang Hao lowered his head and didn’t say anything.
Hong Yuye didn’t press him further.
At that point, she stepped outside. A table and chairs appeared.
She sat down and asked Jiang Hao to make Red Azure tea.
Jiang Hao didn’t hesitate. Red Azure tea was no problem to brew. Hong Yuye looked at the book. “What about the name Gu Jin left for you?”
Jiang Hao extended his hand and pointed at the book. “It’s here.”
Hong Yuye glanced at it but didn’t say much.
Jiang Hao was puzzled.
What did she mean by it?
“Is there something wrong with this?” he asked hesitantly.
“Keep it. Aren’t you planning to place some people in the west?” Hong Yuye asked. “With this, things will be much easier for you in the west.”
Jiang Hao was speechless.
That name would surely bring a lot of trouble, but he didn’t want to go through with it. However, with Hong Yuye saying so, he had no choice but to accept it.
“Do you know about the Black Sea?” Hong Yuye asked.
“Yes. The Black Sea is in the Corpse Realm,” Jiang Hao said.
“Have you seen it?” Hong Yuye glanced at the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl in Jiang Hao’s hand.
“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded.
“How long do you plan to carry around that ominous thing?” Hong Yuye asked.
“Well…” Jiang Hao hesitated and put it away. Nothing happened.
Sure enough, with Hong Yuye around, danger seemed to disappear.
“Have you been to the Black Sea, Senior?” Jiang Hao asked.
“No.” Hong Yuye shook her head. “The Corpse Realm is far from being as simple as one might think.”
Jiang Hao was surprised. If even Hong Yuye said so, this place must indeed be somewhat special.
He had studied the ancient language before but hadn’t found a suitable translation. Translating it the other way around didn’t seem to work either. He wasn’t sure why. Otherwise, he would know what they were talking about. Perhaps people were living in the Corpse Realm in hiding.
“The ancient pages can be sought after. Knowing their content can give a glimpse into the next era… whether good or bad,” Hong Yuye said.
“Senior, where do you think the ancient pages might appear?” Jiang Hao poured a cup of tea for Hong Yuye.
Logically, they should appear in the West, but based on the information from Xing and the others, the pages might appear unexpectedly.
“Senior, is it the appearance of the ancient pages that causes things to be recorded, or were things destined to happen, and the ancient pages just predict them in advance?”
