Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the inn, Jiang Hao received a reply from the Saint Bandits.
He had three requests for them.
One was to find a few peak Immortal Ascension Platform cultivators to follow him. He did not give them further details and told them to wait for more instructions.
The second was to have some Immortal Ascension Platform to wait outside and enter the island later.
The third request was for them to wait for his signal to attack the Heavenly Spirit Tribe.
From the looks of it, they had no objections to his requests, but they did have a lot of questions about the first request.
What did he want the peak Immortal Ascension Platform cultivators for? They did not want to die.
There was no other way. That was why he had made that request in the first place.
Other than that, the people who joined him would have their own purpose.
‘Their purpose?’ Jiang Hao thought for a moment.
Other than the divine item, what other purpose did the Saint Bandits have there?
He didn’t ask much, but they could go in together.
When he encountered trouble, he would need someone to help him.
Otherwise, he would not be able to approach the divine item and do what he wanted to do.
He agreed to their terms as well.
The other party replied that they could send three cultivators at the peak of the Immortal Ascension Platform and two other Immortal Ascension Platform cultivators at the early and middle stages.
The rest were deployed according to his requirements.
Around early November, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe was on high alert.
On the surface of the sea, Tong Wu looked around vigilantly.
He had found the place, and it was already open.
The second step of the tribe’s plan had succeeded.
Not long after it opened, the surrounding sea area gradually surged.
There seemed to be quite a number of people arriving.
As expected, the first batch of people appeared.
They were dressed strangely, and they looked indifferent.
Other than their eyes, there was nothing else in common.
They were from The End of All Things.
Tong Wu knew them.
“This is an important place for the Heavenly Spirit Tribe. Please go back to where you came from.”
“Aren’t you a little young to be guarding such an important place? Why do you think that is? Your people don’t even want to interfere.”
“You dare to say that!” An old man sneered.
They waited for the others.
At that moment, a ship approached from afar.
On the boat sat a scholar holding a folding fan. Beside him was a woman in a red and white immortal dress.
She looked young as though she had just entered the cultivation world.
She sat at the side and drank her tea.
“Who is that?” Tong Wu asked.
“We’re the Saint Bandits,” Jiang Hao said slowly.
To let Hong Yuye enjoy her tea in peace, he had asked for a ship too.
There were five people on deck.
There were two middle-aged Immortal Ascension Platform cultivators, two young men, and a young woman.
The woman was shy and did not seem to go out much.
As for the men, one of them looked aloof, while the other one was muscular and friendly.
They all stood on the deck, except for Jiang Hao and Hong Yuye.
“Why are the Saint Bandits here at the Heavenly Spirit Tribe?” Tong Wu asked.
“Why is The End of All Things here? We’re here for the same reason,” said Jiang Hao and smiled. “Do ask them why they are here.”
Tong Wu looked at them and did not say anything. Instead, he sent messages to the elders.
Soon, people appeared at the edge of the sea. Some were alone, while others were in groups.
Those who knew what was going on watched from afar.
“The Fallen Immortal Clan, the Great Thousand God Sect, The End of All Things, the Saint Bandits, and the Heavenly Saint Sect…” A man with a sword on his back looked around and sighed. “I didn’t expect so many people to come.”
Jiang Hao looked at him and sighed.
Not only were there many people here, but their cultivation realms were also very high.
No ordinary person would dare to be here.
The information had not spread too far.
Most of the people overseas were still paying attention to the Dragon Cave and not the Heavenly Spirit Tribe.
No one paid attention to the people arriving. It was as though they had expected it.
The people who received the news in the Heavenly Spirit Tribe did not care.
These people could attack if they wanted to. The Ancestral Land could not be sealed again.
It was impossible to defend it.
They could not even dream of winning against four great forces.
Even if just the Fallen Immortal Clan and the Heavenly Saint Sect joined hands, it would be impossible for them to defend themselves, let alone four forces joining hands.
They had no chance of fighting them outside, but this was their land.
“The Saint Bandits must have other motives. Can you suppress them?” The Clan Leader looked outside.
“They’ve started to suppress them. The Saint Bandits can’t just come here and take what they want,” said an old man.
“What about the Fallen Immortal Clan? Didn’t they say that they have a way to control that divine item?” asked the Clan Leader.
“Yes, their people have begun to exert influence on the island. Even if someone finds the divine item and knows the true method to activate it, they won’t be able to do it,” the old man said.
The Clan Leader smiled. “That’s for the best. The appearance of the Saint Bandits worries me. They might know the method to activate it. That might be dangerous for us, especially since they hate us.”
“What a bunch of ingrates! If it wasn’t for them, our Heavenly Spirit Tribe wouldn’t have ended up like this in the first place.”
The old man nodded. “That’s true. We have no choice but to wait and see what happens next.”
“Do you think there’s something wrong with Tong Wu?” The Clan Leader chuckled.
Until now, there was no accurate news that the others had suppressed their cultivation realms.
This made him suspect that Tong Wu had not spread the rumor far and wide.
He did not know if that was good or bad.
The old man didn’t say anything. He could only wait and watch.
“When are we going in?” asked the young man on the ship.
“It seems that no one else is going to start. Let’s do it.” Jiang Hao stood up with the folding fan in his hand.
He looked into the distance and knew where the entrance was.
If the others wanted to wait and watch, there was no problem.
This way, he would have the advantage.
But he did not believe that the people of the Heavenly Spirit Tribe had not gone in yet.
He turned to look at Hong Yuye. “I’ll be back soon,” he said.
In the end, he gathered with the others and used the Heavenly Secrets Hidden Talisman. He also used many concealment techniques on himself. He did not know what dangers they might face.
“Come with me,” said Jiang Hao.
His pace was not that fast, but Tong Wu was terrified when he saw them approach.
His power erupted.
A figure walked past him.
Jiang Hao knew that the person in front of him was hiding his cultivation realm, so he was sure that he would not really attack.
Sure enough, it passed in an instant.
The five people behind him followed.
Then, it disappeared into the sea.
There was a stone tablet there and the entrance.
Jiang Hao took the lead and handed a note to the Immortal Ascension Platform cultivator behind him.
The three people followed him in, and the last two stayed behind.
Boom!
The two Immortal Ascension Platform cultivators who were about to enter with him were thrown back.
It surprised them.
“What happened?” someone asked.
The other thought of something and immediately opened the note Jiang Hao had handed him. He saw a few words on it: “Some Immortal Ascension Platform cultivators are not allowed inside.”
At that moment, they understood why Jiang Hao had wanted cultivators at the peak of the Immortal Ascension Platform.
“It seems like the situation is under his control. It is no wonder Senior Nangong wants us to cooperate with him.” The Immortal Ascension Platform cultivators holding the note sighed.
He only hoped that the three people who went in with Jiang Hao would not cause any trouble.
If there were more than three people at the peak of the Immortal Ascension Platform, they would have chosen other people to go in.
The ones who went in were arrogant and condescending.
At that moment, they quickly retreated. Many people began to approach.
They wanted to see if what Smiling San Sheng had said was accurate.
Boom!
Someone tried to enter but was thrown back.
“Since you can’t enter it right now, why not try again after a while?”
“I don’t know. I’m just doing as I’m told.”
The two of them did not say anything else and quickly returned to the ship.
However, just as they arrived near their ship, their eyes narrowed in disdain.
They remembered that there was a woman on the ship.
She might be weak.
They wanted to test her, but when they got close, they felt terrified of her.
She looked aloof, noble, and unapproachable.
They were afraid and did not dare to board the ship. They stayed by the side of the ship and guarded it.
At that moment, they realized how terrifying the woman might be.
