Chapter 1063: There Is No Way To Survive

Watching the two of them disappear, Bi Zhu was momentarily unsure if they were fleeing.

But it did not look like that. They seemed to be in a hurry to reach the North.

“What happened? Why are they rushing to the North?”

Bi Zhu was puzzled.

However, she could not guess what was wrong.

“Princess…” Qiao Yi was concerned.

Bi Zhu shrugged.

“I’m just an eighteen-year-old girl. There are many things that I don’t know. But I can’t waste my youth like this. Let’s go on a trip! Maybe we will go and watch some mountains and rivers and revel in their beauty.”

“Princess…” Qiao Yi called out again.

“What else can I do? I’m only eighteen years old! I just wish there was someone else to take care of this disaster! I just want to live life as an eighteen-year-old,” said Bi Zhu.

Qiao Yi was speechless.

The princess was right.

No matter what they did, it was useless.

They could only wait and watch.

Bi Zhu looked in the direction of the Heavenly Note Sect. She felt that it had been hard for her to go anywhere in the past few years.

With her luck, it might end up better than she expected.

She just hoped her days would not end up being worse.

At the Heavenly Note Sect, Jiang Hao sat silently before the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.

He had thought that everything would be safe after sealing the three pearls.

It was impossible for him not to feel a little proud of himself.

Although it was very dangerous, he had three pearls with him.

He was the first one to have ever done it.

However, disaster struck.

It came in a way that he did not understand.

The three pearls intertwined and formed a vortex.

No one had ever obtained three pearls at the same time, so no one knew the consequences. He was the first person. Maybe he would be the first to die in such a circ.u.mstance.

He felt sorrowful.

He had been so cautious for so many years and worked hard, but in the end, he still could not escape such a fate.

It was simply too late to raise his cultivation realm further.

If he did not circulate his primordial energy for sixty-five days, he would die.

If not, he would die in thirty-three days.

What could he do in thirty days? Plant more spirit herbs?

The shortest time a spirit herb took to germinate was four months, and the longest was a year.

He did not have the time at all.

His condition was also bad. He was plagued by ill luck.

The collapse of his spirit made his body vulnerable to every injury. Any injury could become fatal.

In other words, he might die even while planting spirit herbs.

As for mining…

He could not dig for ores in his condition. He had no strength at all.

Unless he had forty Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flowers, he might not last even a month.

But…

There were only three Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flowers in the entire world.

He could not increase his cultivation in such a short time at all.

As for the Blood Wish Path…

Jiang Hao had placed some of the blood offered to him aside. He used them. The sacrificial blood flew to him and turned to ashes as they absorbed a portion of the ill luck from the vortex.

It was like a drop in the ocean. It did not help him much.

Even if he turned everyone around him into blood sacrifice, he would not be able to extend his lifespan for long, unless he made everyone go insane and burn their lifeblood to sustain his spirit.

That would definitely not work.

Jiang Hao did not think too much about it as he wiped the Heavenly Blade.

At that moment, he heard a sound from outside. The spirit beast had returned late.

As soon as it entered the courtyard, it saw Jiang Hao staring at it.

It straightened up. “My friends in the underworld are too enthusiastic. I just dropped by to check on them.”

“Speak in human language,” Jiang Hao said calmly.

“Xiao Li showed me fireflies,” said the spirit beast.

Jiang Hao looked at it. He felt a bit sentimental.

He still remembered the first day when the spirit beast had arrived.

He had found it in the Spirit Herb garden. After that, Jiang Hao decided to raise it.

Hong Yuye had cut away the thing inside the spirit beast’s body.

That was why it was able to stay with Jiang Hao.

Unknowingly, many years had pa.s.sed.

He was forty-three years old, and the spirit beast was not young either.

“Take a rest,” Jiang Hao said.

“Master, you want to guard the flower today?” the spirit beast asked.

“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded. “I just want to sit here.”

The spirit beast wanted to move closer, but Jiang Hao asked it to sit by the peach tree.

The spirit beast glanced at the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower. It felt reluctant to part with it.

In the end, he hung upside down from a branch of the peach tree and fell asleep.

Jiang Hao felt rather emotional.

The spirit beast had so many friends in the underworld that might be able to help it whenever it needed help, so Jiang Hao did not have to worry about his pet beast.

At that moment, he lowered his head and saw that ordinary weeds around him had already withered away.

There was also a problem with his body.

‘Sixty-five days…’

Looking up at the sky, Jiang Hao felt a little melancholic.

He clearly had a bright future ahead of him, but in the end, he fell into such a predicament because of a silly mistake.

If he had separated the pearls, the vortex would not have appeared.

He would not be in this situation if he had been a little more careful.

There was nothing he could do.

Once he died, the three pearls would explode.

At that time, it would be disastrous.

It was a hopeless situation, and death was inevitable.

‘Is there really no other way?’

He could not think of a way out of this.

It was useless even if he asked the immortal sect for help. There was not enough time.

Jiang Hao began to circulate the purple energy to buy himself some time.

When the sun rose, he withdrew the purple energy and opened his eyes to look at the spirit beast.

At that moment, the spirit beast realized where it had slept.

“Master, should we go?” asked the spirit beast as it landed on the ground.

“Go ahead. Tell Cheng Chou that I’m in seclusion and won’t be going to the garden for a few days,” Jiang Hao said.

The spirit beast did not think too much about it. When it ran to the courtyard gate, it suddenly turned back.

“Master, do you want a mistress or not?”

Without waiting for Jiang Hao’s response, the spirit beast left.

Jiang Hao lowered his head. ‘A mistress…’

He had only two months to live at most.

Even if all the conditions were met, there was no way to find a solution.

“Cough! Cough!”

He felt a little uneasy. His face turned pale.

He took out three pearls and sealed them one by one before getting up to go upstairs to get his talisman brush.

He suddenly wanted to create some talismans.

However, just as he reached the door, he stopped in his tracks.

He felt exhausted. The distance between his courtyard and the door to his house was so short, but he felt like he had crossed a moat.

Jiang Hao smiled bitterly.

He sat in front of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower and continued to circulate the purple energy.

The days pa.s.sed like that.

Seven days felt like a long time to Jiang Hao.

He had not left the courtyard for the past seven days. The aura on his body was getting weaker and weaker by the day.

“Master, you look a little pale,” said the spirit beast as it appeared in front of Jiang Hao.

“Yes. It’s the consequences of seclusion,” Jiang Hao said.

At that moment, the Archean Abyss Dragon Pearl was on his chest.

However, its power was almost exhausted and could not help him in any way.

The spirit beast nodded and left without giving it much thought.

Jiang Hao’s face was as white as a sheet of paper.

He coughed after the spirit beast left.

“Cough! Cough!”

He coughed nonstop until he spat out a mouthful of blood.

He collapsed to the ground.

Although the purple energy was still circulating, it did not help.

Maybe he was already too far gone.

At that moment, his cultivation was like a piece of paper. It just kept ripping into smaller pieces.
