It had been about half a month since he began learning languages.
Every day for the past few weeks, he had gone to the outer sect with the golden rings to help trigger the Xuanyuan inheritance and to learn about languages.
However, there had been no changes for half a month, which made Xuanyuan Tai and Xuanyuan He quite anxious.
Fortunately, it hadn’t affected his progress in learning languages.
The two people didn’t seem to think he was lying.
Having someone teach him at a pace different from his own learning was fine. He had read many books before and had a solid foundation. His progress was rapid.
However, the most important thing was to speak out.
He wanted to hear the language mentioned in the Corpse Realm from Xuanyuan He’s mouth. That was the most crucial thing. Other matters didn’t concern him much.
But he couldn’t make it too obvious. So, he needed to keep learning.
Perhaps he would suddenly encounter the language he had heard in one of the books.
During this time, an ordinary non-cultivator in the Spirit Herb Garden fell ill once again.
Cheng Chou and the others were concerned.
Fortunately, they recovered within a few days. But once they recovered, another person fell ill.
So far, they hadn’t discovered anything unusual.
However, the incident itself made Jiang Hao concerned, so he had Cheng Chou and the spirit beast keep an eye on things.
He was almost finished with the languages. It wasn’t good to be distracted now.
From the spirit beast, he learned that someone was still asking about him.
That was strange.
‘Could it be Qian Chen and the others?’ He hadn’t offended anyone else lately.
He couldn’t be certain and could only wait.
Fortunately, there were no wars at the moment. Otherwise, he would have to pay attention to the Spirit Herb Garden. If he didn’t fulfill his duties properly, it could have significant consequences.
Another seven days passed, and Jiang Hao followed Xuanyuan Tai back to his residence as usual.
He needed to continue learning.
“It’s almost a month. Are you really sure it will bloom?” Xuanyuan He asked.
“You’ll know when the time comes,” Jiang Hao said.
“Alright… I’ll teach you another language now. Listen to the pronunciation carefully,” Xuanyuan He said.
Then she produced a sound that Jiang Hao couldn’t understand at all, but it made him pause.
He felt delighted. It was very similar to what he had heard in the Corpse Realm. This should be it!
“What language is this?” Jiang Hao asked.
“The language of the Heavenly Spirit Clan, but it’s an ancient language,”
Xuanyuan He said.
“Where is the Heavenly Spirit Clan located?” Jiang Hao asked.
“They’re overseas, but their numbers are few. It’s said that their clan used to be quite numerous, and they mainly used the ancient language. But things are different now. No one uses the ancient language anymore,” Xuanyuan He said as she handed Jiang Hao a book. “This book is related to the language.”
Xuanyuan He taught him very meticulously, and she prepared relevant books for him each time.
Although he was only learning the basics, having these books allowed him to continue studying on his own.
‘Heavenly Spirit Clan’s ancient language…’
When he had the time, he could try to find out about the history of the Heavenly Spirit Clan.
For this, he would have to rely on the stone tablet. Perhaps Liu might know more about it. However. he couldn’t be too obvious about it.
‘For now, I won’t rush. I’ll learn first and then figure out what they were talking about.’
The two individuals had sounded surprised at first, but he didn’t know what they were discussing.
He had only been taught the Heavenly Spirit Clan’s language for a day. It was the last day. The flower would sprout tomorrow.
Jiang Hao went to touch the seed with the golden rings to help it resonate with the blood inheritance.
“The seed should sprout tomorrow.”
Xuanyuan Tai and Xuanyuan He were both stunned. There hadn’t been any changes at all. How was Jiang Hao so sure about this?
However, Xuanyuan Tai had no other choice but to wait. “You are truly extraordinary, Senior Brother Jiang”
“By the way, Junior Sister and I have received a mission. We might have to go out to complete it tomorrow. Fortunately, it’s happening after the seed sprouts. ”
‘Leaving so soon?’ Jiang Hao was surprised.
“I’ve prepared the books for you. You’ve learned the basics already, and you’ll be able to understand more even if you study on your own. I’ve included annotations on how to study and make progress effectively.” Xuanyuan He handed Jiang Hao several books.
There were dozens of them.
Jiang Hao didn’t know how long he would need to study them all.
Fortunately, he had already identified the language he wanted to learn. As long as he studied it diligently, it would be enough.
He still had the comprehensive language manual given by Dan Yuan. He had enough resources for now.
“If you’re leaving tomorrow, I can stay the night and make sure the seed sprouts before you leave,” said Jiang Hao.
Xuanyuan Tai felt at ease.
Xuanyuan He was surprised.
If the flower didn’t bloom, they would have to leave.
If the flower did bloom, they would have to leave even more urgently.
That’s why they had taken on the mission.
If they didn’t return for a long time, their sect would think they were dead.
Nobody paid much attention to outer sect disciples in the Lifeblood Refinement Realm, so they decided to pose using those identities.
Entering the sect had been easy. Leaving it should be convenient too.
However, performing tasks was much more difficult than building a foundation.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly.
Jiang Hao wanted to stay because he wanted the golden bubble. He had contributed his time and effort in making the seed sprout, so he wanted that golden bubble.
If they took the flower with them, the bubble might disappear.
So, they had to wait for the germination of the seed.
Xuanyuan Tai had no objections.
The three of them waited from evening to late night, and then from late night to dawn.
It was precisely at this moment that the inert seed suddenly glowed with runes. Then these runes began to recede, and the flower seed broke forth from the dirt. A tender sprout emerged.
Xuanyuan Tai was excited.
Jiang Hao was also delighted.
He saw a golden bubble appear beside the seedling. Soon, it merged into his body.

He could go back and obtain a treasure!
However, at this moment, someone attacked him from behind.
He fell unconscious to the ground.
Xuanyuan Tai whispered, “I’m sorry, friend. We need to make you sleep so that we can leave.”
Xuanyuan Tai looked at his Junior Sister. “Get ready. We’re leaving now.”
“Alright.” Xuanyuan He was excited too, but she was also puzzled.
How exactly did Jiang Hao do it?
Once everything was prepared, Xuanyuan Tai hesitated for a moment and left behind a Heaven Rejuvenating Pill.
“Other items are too conspicuous, so we can’t give them to you. However, since you’re already at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm, this pill should be useful for you.”
After that, Xuanyuan Tai activated Heaven and Earth Dislocation ability.
Before long, they disappeared one after another from the spot.
Only then did Jiang Hao open his eyes. He sat up and picked up the Heaven Rejuvenating Pill.
After carefully examining it, he confirmed that there were no problems with it. It would fetch him several thousand spirit stones.
Unfortunately, it would look quite suspicious if he sold it. Usually, someone at the peak of Foundation establishment Realm would be dying to use it.
‘Maybe I can wait till I can raise my cultivation to display it at Golden Core Realm. Then, I can sell it.’
Then, he returned to his courtyard. He wanted to see what divine treasure he might be able to obtain.
At the mine, a young man walked into the cave. He examined everything with exceptional care.
Looking at the labyrinthine passages, he breathed a sigh of relief.
“I’m finally in. After Gu Qing left the Spirit Herb Garden, she was at the Cliff of Broken Hearts. We couldn’t find anything there. I should first check if she left anything behind. I’m just not sure if she really came to the mines..”
