Jiang Hao felt a little strange. He did not know if he could go inside. There was only silence.

After hesitating for a moment, he pushed the door open.

He lowered his head and walked in.

He did not dare to look.

However, the screen covered the tub, so he did not see her.

After sitting down with his back facing the screen, Jiang Hao asked, “Senior, do you think that could work?”

“Do you have a magic treasure that can take away luck or misfortune?” Hong Yuye asked. There was a sound of water splashing in the tub.

He could hear her properly here. Her voice had been distant and unclear when he was outside the door.

“I do have one, but I don’t know if it’s useful,” Jiang Hao said.

He had picked up such a magic treasure a long time ago.

It was the Six-Faced Dice, and it was a Dharma treasure. When one used the treasure, it absorbed a portion of that person’s fate. For that price, the user would gain a new appearance. It was the perfect disguise.

This was almost the result of the appraisal.

When he first obtained the magic treasure, he thought the owner of such a treasure was not an ordinary person.

He had never dared to use it, but he wanted to try.

He just did not know if the treasure could be used to extract misfortune.

If he could, what effect would it have?

Hong Yuye was silent for a moment. “You want to use it?”

“I want to see if I can draw away a portion of the bad luck with it,” Jiang Hao said.

“It can,” said Hong Yuye.

“Will there be any consequences? Would it affect future luck or the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron?” Jiang Hao asked.

He was worried that it would cause unnecessary trouble and affect the cauldron in a bad way.

“That treasure doesn’t cause bad luck. It just absorbs it as a price. It won’t affect anything,” she said. “The owner of the magic treasure might not like you very much for it, but you can try. That thing is somewhat similar to the stone tablet.”

Jiang Hao was surprised.

Hong Yuye had been searching for the person behind the stone tablets for a long time. Perhaps she could find some clues through this treasure.

“Will we be discovered for using it?” Jiang Hao asked.

Experts could sense these things. The Fallen Immortal Clan always tried to spy on him.

“They’ll only have a general idea of the location but not much,” said Hong Yuye.

Jiang Hao felt much more at ease. That meant he could give it a try.

“Senior, do you think I can become an immortal?” Jiang Hao asked after a moment of hesitation.

“Aren’t you at the Golden Core Realm right now?” asked Hong Yuye. “You want to become an immortal?”

“I want to know what it feels like to make it to that realm,” he said.

“You could have become an immortal, but it’s different now,” said Hong Yuye.

Jiang Hao heard the water splash in the tub. He knew Hong Yuye was washing herself.

He did not think about it.

“Why is it different now, Senior?” he asked.

“Because of the karma vortex. Do you think you’re the same as before?” Hong Yuye asked.

Jiang Hao shook his head.

If the balance was suddenly broken during the advancement, he would be in danger.

He could die on the spot, let alone become an immortal.

It was indeed much harder to become an immortal.

“Is there any other way?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Strengthen the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron. It’s best to have luck on your side when you become an immortal,” said Hong Yuye.

Jiang Hao thought of the person with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.

Becoming an immortal at the same time as having the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment might be huge.

It would take at least two hundred years for the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment to become an immortal.

She had that much time, but he did not.

The Grand Earth Emperor might be able to do it, but Xuanyuan Tai was not ready yet.

He could only wait. He just had to try his best.

It would take a long time to become an immortal. Jiang Hao held the Six-Faced Dice.

“Senior, should I give it a try?”

Hong Yuye did not speak. That usually meant he could go ahead.

Jiang Hao transformed into Smiling San Sheng first. Then, he used the Heavenly Secrets Hidden talisman. He also activated the Leaf of Concealment.

Only then could he use the dice.

He flipped the dice and felt the misfortune on his body ripple.

A little of it might have been taken away.

When the dice landed on the floor, it turned to the number five.

Immediately after, the figure of a young girl appeared on it.

If Jiang Hao wanted, he could transform into that young girl.

Jiang Hao really did not want to do it.

In the end, he reached out and picked up the dice.

When he tried doing it again, he could not use it.

It seemed that he could only use it once a day.

There was one more thing to add to his daily routine.

The water splashed in the tub. Hong Yuye was coming out of the water.

Jiang Hao stopped thinking about it.

A moment later, a red shadow flashed behind him.

The door opened and closed again. Hong Yuye had gone out.

Jiang Hao heaved a sigh of relief and went to the second floor.

Hong Yuye was already resting on his bed.

On the balcony, Jiang Hao sat down and looked into the distance.

The sky had darkened.

The stars in the sky twinkled.

In a trance, Jiang Hao thought of his life.

He had faced many things but had never been in real danger.

This time, he only had twenty years to live if he could not come up with a solution.

He could not help but laugh at himself.

‘I was greedy…’

At least he could survive for a little while longer. He had a little hope.

If he could become an immortal in twenty years, he would have even more time.

Who could see the future? As long as he did his best to survive, anything could happen.

After a while, Jiang Hao closed his eyes.

It was unreal to have beaten death by a hair’s breadth.

He needed to calm his mind.

At the very least, he felt the firm ground under him. All he could do was take one step after another.

When he closed his eyes, he felt the immortal aura hidden in his body loosening, as if it was about to spread out.

If there were no accidents, he could become an immortal soon.

However, it was only right for him to be cautious.

Life was never fair. It would be strange if he went through life without problems.

He felt calm.

He could hear the sound of the wind and the chirping of insects around him.

When the chirping went silent, Jiang Hao felt the warmth of the rising sun.

When he opened her eyes, the sky was brightening.

The sun rose from the east.

Jiang Hao slowly stood up.

“A new day…”

He felt delighted.

He did not know if it was because he had a close brush with death, but everything felt full of life and hope.

Jiang Hao reached out his hand and circulated his spiritual energy.

Boundless energy surged toward him.

‘This is indeed different. Is it because the world is reeling me in again? Or is it because of the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron?’ He thought.

Jiang Hao realized that he was indeed a little different from before.

However, his strength had yet to recover to its full peak.

‘This is enough for me…’

Although his path would be more difficult than before, he at least felt at ease knowing he could feel the ground under his feet.

At that moment, he felt the stone tablet vibrate.

The gathering was finally here.

Jiang Hao sighed as he looked at the stone tablet.

‘I owe you a big favor.’
