The sun shone brightly in the courtyard, and purple energy emitted in wisps.

The blood on the ground dried bit by bit.

Jiang Hao, who had fallen to the ground weakly, finally stood up.

He sat down cross-legged again.

He realized that his hands were bruised from the light fall.

It reminded him of his childhood.

When he was young, he chopped firewood. He would always injure himself.

However, he would also recover very quickly.

This time, he did not just injure easily, but it was also hard for him to heal.

For a moment, his memory returned to his childhood.

His stepmother once dragged him to the backyard and yelled at him that everyone had to contribute to the family if they wanted to live together. He was assigned to chop the firewood.

Then, he thought of the day he was sold to the demonic sect. His stepmother had been the one who accepted the money and returned home.

At that time, when he was being led by the immortal who had bought him, he wanted to turn around and run.

But he had seen his stepmother close the door to the house.

He felt sad thinking about all that.

He no longer blamed anyone for his life turning out this way.

He had done his best with what he was given.

He had not given up and continued to work hard to find opportunities to get stronger. However, things did not go according to his wishes.

Jiang Hao sat cross-legged and circulated his purple energy to suppress the damage to his body.

Misfortune plagued him relentlessly.

The only thing he could do was use the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, the Primordial Heavenly Blade, and other divine items to suppress it as much as he could.

The days passed very slowly.

On the tenth day, Jiang Hao felt as though ten years had passed. He only had fifty-five days left.

He fell to the ground and spat out a large mouthful of blood.

He had no strength in his body at all.

No one knew how much pain he was in right now.

The Earth Extreme Silent Pearl tried to tear his body apart.

His spirit was being devoured by the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl.

Jiang Hao lay on the ground and looked at the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower in front of him. He felt that his life was really coming to an end.

He tried his best to get up and compose himself.

He took out all the sacrificial blood that was remaining.

Cheng Chou arrived at noon to see him.

Jiang Hao let him in.

The moment he saw Jiang Hao, Cheng Chou turned pale with fright.

“Senior Brother, what happened to you?”

“It’s fine. It’s just the effect of seclusion,” said Jiang Hao.

“But…” Cheng Chou was worried.

Although his Senior Brother did not admit it, Cheng Chou knew that something was wrong.

“I don’t know what Lord Beast has been plotting with Xiao Li lately, but they have been running around a lot,” said Cheng Chou.

“Really?” Jiang Hao lowered his head. “It’s fine. They know their limits.”

Then, Cheng Chou mentioned the Spirit Herb Garden and said that new superior-grade spiritual herbs had just arrived. If Jiang Hao was in seclusion and could not make it to the garden, he offered to send it here.

Jiang Hao refused.

After that, he explained some cultivation issues to Cheng Chou.

Jiang Hao explained the changes in the Lifeblood Refinement Technique in great detail.

It ended in the evening.

“Senior Brother, is there anything I can do to help?” Cheng Chou was worried.

Jiang Hao thought for a moment. “Can you get me a talisman brush?”

In less than two hours, an exquisite talisman brush appeared in front of Jiang Hao with other talisman-making tools.

Jiang Hao sighed with emotion.

Maybe because his life was at its end, he wanted to create talismans before he died.

Although it was useless, he still wanted to do something while he still could.

After Cheng Chou left, he tried to make talismans but failed.

He could not use his spiritual energy, and his hand on the brush trembled.

How could he make talismans in this condition?

In the days that followed, Jiang Hao circulated the purple energy around him and occasionally tried making talismans.

However, he had never succeeded.

Five more days passed by very quickly. It was difficult for him to concentrate on anything at all.

Everything seemed to be changing for the worse.

In the face of the three pearls, everything was useless.

However, what bothered him was that the spirit beast had not returned for five days. He did not know where it had gone.

On the sixteenth day, the spirit beast returned. It looked dejected. It stood in front of Jiang Hao and handed him a flower that was emitting some lifeforce.

“Master, my friends in the underworld told me that this spirit herb can cure all kinds of diseases. They also said you might need it. It can help,” said the spirit beast.

Jiang Hao fell silent. Then, he smiled. “You didn’t get caught?”

This was a sacred medicine. The Heavenly Note Sect did have it, but it was exceptionally difficult for anyone to get it unless they stole it.

“Everybody fears and respects me,” said the spirit beast. “I’m Lord Beast, after all.”

Jiang Hao took the flower and did not say anything.

He just silently put it away. This flower had no effect on him.

Even the Sea God Pill would be useless to fix what he had.

Under the effect of the three pearls, everything else was useless.

On the seventeenth day, a red figure appeared under the Immortal Peach Tree.

She looked at Jiang Hao. Jiang Hao also looked at her.

“Greetings, Senior.” He tried to get up and bow.

Hong Yuye looked at him closely. “You really are unlucky.”

“Only a little,” said Jiang Hao.

As soon as he finished speaking, a vast power swept toward him.

The power enveloped his body. He felt as though it was dispersing something around him.

However, that caused the three pearls to react. For a moment, Jiang Hao’s body became even more vulnerable.

In an instant, the vast force blew Jiang Hao away.

He crashed heavily against the wall. He spat out a mouthful of blood.

Then, he fell to the ground.

He was bleeding profusely.

Hong Yuye stood in the distance and watched the scene.

He did not move, and his face did not change.

Jiang Hao lowered his head and stood up with great difficulty. He bowed. “I apologize for troubling you, Senior.”

There was no response from her. She had disappeared.

Jiang Hao looked at the spot where she had been standing just moments before in awe.

He could finally stand up!

He felt better than he was two days ago.

However, he still could not walk out of the courtyard.

Another fifteen days passed, and around mid-June, Jiang Hao felt that his body had almost reached its limit. He did not even know how long he could last.

However, on that day, he saw a red figure again.

“You’re even more unlucky than before.” Hong Yuye sat at the table.

Jiang Hao nodded. This time, he found it difficult to even open his mouth to speak.

The vast aura enveloped him again.

It caused the three pearls to react again. However, the vast aura seemed to have changed at that moment.

Jiang Hao could not sense it. But this time, it did not send him flying.

He felt that his limbs had gained some strength. It was much easier for him to speak.

“Your cultivation realm has become stronger?” Hong Yuye looked at him.

“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded with a bitter smile.

“Perhaps it won’t be long before I reach the Primordial Spirit Realm.”
