Chapter 1109: The Last Meal Is Taken Away (1)
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The feedback from the appraisal explained many things.
It told Jiang Hao about Old Man Corpse Sea’s fear.
Secondly, he finally understood where he had encountered Gu Jin.
He had taken three steps into the Blood Pool.
It made him worry too. When Old Man Corpse Sea entered the Blood Pool, he was attacked. When Jiang Hao did it, he was not harmed.
Was it because of the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl?
That was the only explanation.
From the looks of it, he was still safe.
Not knowing the reason was scarier for him because he could be targeted at any time.
“The opening of the Corpse Realm is a great opportunity. Some experts will find a way to enter, especially their… avatar,” Jiang Hao said.
“Looks like it’s not easy to enter and exit. Otherwise, why would people use their avatars?” Ola Man Corpse Sea asked.
“Yeah, it’s not easy to enter. There are very few spots from where you can enter. I also want to go in and take a look,” Jiang Hao said.
“If you want to enter, you should tell your sect. Why are you telling me? This pork knuckle you brought tastes ordinary. Next time, use a different recipe,” said Old Man Corpse Sea.
Even as he said that, he ate a huge mouthful of it.
It was as though he was starving.
Jiang Hao nodded and did not talk about the Corpse Realm anymore. Instead, he talked about the Devil’s Den.
“The person you want to see… are they in Devil’s Den?”
“Yes. Will you take me there?” asked Old Man Corpse Sea as he continued eating.
“Senior, do you really want to go there?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Of course.” Old Man Corpse Sea raised his eyebrows and smiled at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao looked at him and beckoned at him. “Senior, please come a little forward. I heard something that might change your mind.”
“What are you talking about? Just say it,” Old Man Corpse Sea said.
The people around were also paying attention.
The two people were talking for a long time. They were all curious.
When Jiang Hao beckoned to Old Man Corpse Sea, Zhuang Yuzhen was stunned. He sat up straighter.
Mi Lingyue and Heavenly King Hai Luo were also shocked.
“Heavenly King Hai Luo, did your Master beckon him?” Mi Lingyue whispered.
Yan Shang had also seen it. She had keenly become aware of what it meant when Jiang Hao beckoned to someone.
He had beckoned to her as well. Although she did not say anything right now, she had too many questions in her mind.
Just like the others, she was curious.
She wanted to see if Old Man Corpse Sea would fall for it.
“Oh?” Old Man Corpse Sea noticed that it had gone too quiet.
He did not really care.
These people could not compare to him.
He was confident that nothing could threaten him.
He ignored Jiang Hao and continued eating.
Jiang Hao did not mind. He just moved closer and whispered a few words to him.
He whispered what Gu Jin had said to Old Man Corpse Sea before. “You dare to take three steps into the Blood Pool?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Hao took a few steps back.
Old Man Corpse Sea was still eating.
Did it not work?
Jiang Hao sighed and slowly stood up.
“Since you have made up your mind, Senior, I’ll not stop you. Please enjoy your meal in peace. I’ll ask the guards if I can see you tomorrow,” said Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao turned around and left.
Even if Old Man Corpse Sea did not end up dead after meeting Gu Jin, he would definitely be severely injured.
He was not talking about the avatar. His main body would be gravely injured.
The barrier between the Corpse Realm and the cultivation world more or less protected Old Man Corpse Sea’s body.
But since the Corpse Realm was going to open, and the barrier would be loose, his body might not withstand the encounter.
But it was useless. Maybe Old Man Corpse Sea was confident enough.
The others also watched. They did not know what was going on.
Old Man Corpse Sea did not even react.
Everyone was anxious to know what would happen next.
“It was a dragon!”
Jiang Hao had only taken a few steps when he heard Old Man Corpse Sea shout.
Old Man Corpse Sea had put down his food. “The answer you were looking for is a dragon.”
Mi Lingyue and the others were a little confused.
What was going on?
Jiang Hao stopped and turned to look at Old Man Corpse Sea.
“That is the answer you wanted.” Old Man Corpse Sea looked at Jiang Hao differently.
Jiang Hao knew that he had provoked him.
It was terrifying to offend such a scary person.
There was no doubt about Old Man Corpse Sea’s power.
Old Man Corpse Sea did not care about the entire Heavenly Note Sect.
However, Gu Jin’s name did wonders. He was invincible.
Even such a powerful person lowered his head in front of Gu Jin.
Gu Jin was a dazzling existence.
There had been powerful people who had confronted him, but no one could win against him.
His name alone was legendary.
Gu Changsheng, Lou Mantian, and the Sword God were no match for him, let alone Old Man Corpse Sea.
Old Man Corpse Sea was not as powerful as those people, but he was still an extremely powerful existence.
At that moment, he no longer thought about anything. The word “dragon” caught his attention.
Old Man Corpse Sea had seen a dragon.
“Where did he go in the end?” Jiang Hao asked.
“I don’t know. At that time, he might have just become an immortal. After he left, he didn’t return there ever. He said that the things inside belong to whoever finds them. He didn’t want them anymore,” Old Man Corpse Sea said.
Jiang Hao nodded. He was referring to the secret realm where the dragon egg was.
That place was not easy to find.
Old Man Corpse Sea also said that he had never seen it.
It probably needed a secret technique to uncover something like that.
He should still be able to get the eggshells.
Jiang Hao needed to send someone to check it out.
It would be troublesome because there was no one from the North in the gathering.
The dragon had left without saying anything.
Jiang Hao felt that it was such a shame.
“You can take these back with you if you want,” said Old Man Corpse Sea and lowered his head to look at the food.
