Chapter 694 - 694: Conversation with the True Dragon

“Our orders from above are to wait, set up formations, and resonate with our bloodlines,” said a middle-aged man.

“Why is that?” someone asked curiously.

“Since we can’t prevent the Grand Earth Emperor from appearing, we should try to gain some benefits from it. What we might obtain remains uncertain. In any case, the clan has instructed us not to take rash actions, so we must wait quietly said an elderly man.

“The disciples of the Mountain Sea Sword Sect and the Clear Sky School are very active in this area. It’s risky to act recklessly here,” said someone else.

The previous incident with the Bright Moon Sect had made them lose too much. Moreover, they couldn’t prevent the Grand Earth Emperor from appearing, which was frustrating.

The Grand Earth Emperor was a mortal enemy, especially since they might be likely from the Xuanyuan Clan.

“If we can’t make a move in the Blackheaven Sect, why don’t we just go to the Heavenly Note Sect? They are currently engaged in a battle. It’s a rare opportunity. We can rescue Mi Qian and also capture that person named Jiang Hao. Isn’t the clan quite curious about him?” said a young man.

“I know a bit about people related to this Jiang Hao. It’s said that he has a junior sister he values greatly. She is at the Blackheaven Sect right now. Maybe we can start by approaching her first.”

The man in the lead fell silent for a moment. “Send three people to handle this matter. Whether we succeed or fail, do not regroup. Just send a message.”

Shortly after, three individuals left the group and went in a different direction.

Half a month later, in the middle of September, Jiang Hao noticed that the number of ores he dug up was gradually decreasing.

The number of bubbles was also dropping rapidly, and the formation was about to be filled. This indicated that the ore outside was meant to activate the formation inside.

If he had taken the ores with him, the Burning Immortal Formation might not have been activated at all.

‘I’m still not selfish enough…’ Jiang Hao sarcastically remarked to himself.

The Xuanyuan Sword was the Human Emperor’s sword. Even though the Human Emperor was long gone, the sword continued to suppress something in there.

However, with the passage of time, the Xuanyuan Sword might be entirely corroded by the Immortal Seed and eventually be destroyed.

If there were substitutes for the ore, it would be fine. If not, he couldn’t just take them away.

Clang!

A piece of ore fell, and Jiang Hao picked it up before heading into the cave.

He hadn’t expected to be able to mine for another half a month.

It seemed that finding this place from the outside was not so easy.

Even Gui would need to spend a lot of time and effort to find this place.

Besides, she would need the Blackheaven Sect’s approval to explore this mine. Otherwise, entering carelessly would cause a lot of trouble for her. These people acted with discretion and wouldn’t easily oppose other sects.

“How is it going, Friend?” Jiang Hao asked as he entered the cave.

Feng Wei had been meticulously sketching the formation. He focused deeply on his work. His talent was indeed commendable, and Jiang Hao couldn’t help but feel inferior in his knowledge about formation compared to this junior.

“Only a little more to go. It should take another day or two,” Feng Wei said.

‘Two more days, huh?’ Jiang Hao thought that the final moments were often the most susceptible to disasters.

However, there was no need to rush. If someone arrived here, there was nothing he could do. He had mined most of the ore and fed it to the formation. He had done all he could. There was no need for him to stay.

Before he left, there was one more thing he had to do.

He looked at the Xuanyuan Sword. The black mist was affecting the sword and needed to be removed.

“Actually, I can do it faster if you want, Senior,” said Feng Wei. “No need. Take it slow, and don’t make any mistakes,” Jiang Hao said.

Feng Wei nodded.

He hesitated for a long time as if he wanted to say something. In the end, he gave up.

“Do you want to ask about this sword?” Jiang Hao asked him.

“No… I’m of a lower cultivation realm and don’t have the right to know most things.” Feng Wei quickly shook his head.

“This sword is the Xuanyuan Sword,” Jiang Hao said. “It’s the Human Emperor’s sword.”

“The Human Emperor’s sword?” Feng Wei was taken aback.

The Human Emperor’s name only existed in legends for him. Moreover, it wasn’t even confirmed whether the Human Emperor was actually real. Now, he was being told that he was preparing a formation for the Human Emperor’s sword all along…

It all seemed like an illusion.

“Senior, are you planning to take the Xuanyuan Sword?” he asked.

Jiang Hao looked at him and smiled. “Do you think I’m qualified to do that?”

“Yes,” Feng Wei said confidently.

Jiang Hao shook his head.

After that, he put all the ores into the formation. He left a few to be added later.

When the runes were completely charged and the Burning Immortal Formation took shape, there would be a suppression effect.

At that time, he could approach the center and take a closer look at the Xuanyuan Sword.

He didn’t know how mighty the Human Emperor had been back in the day. He could only find that out by examining the sword.

Two days later, Jiang Hao found that there were no more ores to mine, but his harvest this time was substantial.

Finally, Feng Wei had completed the engraving on his side.

Jiang Hao appraised it and saw no problems with it.

As long as the Xuanyuan Sword resonated with a person, the formation would activate.

When the Immortal Seed was destroyed, the Xuanyuan Sword would reappear in the world.

“Senior, should I go outside?” Feng Wei asked cautiously as Jiang Hao prepared to go to the central platform.

“No need. You can stay here and watch. Perhaps we can catch a glimpse of the true form of the Human Emperor’s sword, after all,” Jiang Hao said.

If anyone else had said this, Feng Wei’s first thought would be that the person intended to kill him in that instant. However, the person in front of him was different, and he felt safe with him.

That was why Feng Wei had answered without hesitation when Jiang Hao asked if he was qualified to take the sword.

Jiang Hao walked to the center, where black mist enveloped the area.

The Burning Immortal Formation did have a suppressing effect on it, but it couldn’t remove the mist from the Xuanyuan Sword. Even the True Dragon’s illusion could only contend with it.

“Forgive me.” Jiang Hao respectfully bowed to the sword.

Then, the Mountain Sea Seal appeared, and his fingers spread open.

He activated the Universe in A Palm Technique. The purple energy surged and covered the entire sword.

Soon, the black mist was removed completely.

In the next moment, the purple energy returned to Jiang Hao’s hand and condensed into a purple bead.

He had successfully sealed the black mist.

‘Luckily, the mist didn’t put up much resistance…’ Jiang Hao sighed in relief.

If it was something like the Nine Nether, it would have been immensely difficult to seal it.

He had managed to seal the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl and the Nine Nether because they were already in a sealed state from before. If they were in their original form, even a hundred people couldn’t seal them.

After the black mist was sealed, the Xuanyuan Sword was revealed.

Jiang Hao was somewhat surprised. He saw that the sword’s body was covered in rust, like that of a decrepit old man. The True Dragon’s illusion on it also seemed dim and lifeless now.

“So, this is the Human Emperor’s sword?” Jiang Hao mused.

It didn’t look imposing at all, yet it had commanded respect from numerous clans.

“Are you still alive?” Jiang Hao watched the image of the True Dragon. This was a remnant soul of a True Dragon.

At that moment, the True Dragon’s eyes flickered slightly as it looked at Jiang

Hao.

“Are vou human?”

“Yes.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes.”

“The last one to come here was actually a human… not a dragon…”

“I’m sorry to have disappointed you, Senior..”
