Chapter 515 - 515: Heaven Lock

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Bam!

Jiang Hao slammed heavily against the wall.

He was punished because he hadn’t been taking care of the heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.

Although the impact was much smaller than when he had seen her in the bathroom last time, it still was a testament to her mood swings.

One had to be cautious around powerful experts.

“I’ll spare you this time, but you won’t be so lucky next time.” Hong Yuye glared at him. “Just continue with your cleaning the walls. In the future, you might not get a chance to do so.”

Jiang Hao followed her with his gaze as she disappeared.

Although he took a hit, it was still okay. There was no need to worry about it.

Now that Hong Yuye had told him to clean the wall, he would be just following orders.

Later, after a short rest and once his state returned to its peak, he left the room and returned to the wall.

Without a doubt, the cloth that had been put aside had disappeared once again.

Curious, he looked for the thieving sea creature.

He wanted to see which sea creature had been stealing from him.

Soon, he found a relatively young thieving sea creature. Its tentacles were quite slender, but it clutched three pieces of cloth. Although it tried to hide, it couldn’t escape Jiang Hao’s sight.

Upon seeing someone approaching, it became somewhat nervous and instinctively retreated.

“How did you steal them?” Jiang Hao asked.

The thieving sea creature, with three eyes, looked at Jiang Hao in fear. Yet, it looked determined to defend itself.

Seeing it remained silent, Jiang Hao hesitated for a moment and activated his divine ability to appraise it.

[Ah Kong: A sea monster that stole from the Sea Fog Cave. It is at the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. It is born with spatial divine power and has an extremely high talent for stealing. It’s a sea creature that values kindness and obeys its parents’ commands. Before its parents passed away, they asked it to become a free sea creature. Now, it only desires freedom. If someone helps it, it will be grateful and will remember them for a lifetime and repay them wholeheartedly.]

Jiang Hao was surprised that a sea creature had such principles.

But how long could this kind of thinking last?

It might be just feeling this way because it was a captive. Once it was set free, it might not care about repaying favors.

Chi Tian was a living example of that. He had even changed his whole identity just to get away.

Humans couldn’t be trusted, and sea creatures were somewhat similar. ‘Ah Zha named it… I didn’t expect it to accept the name so readily.’

Only when the creature accepted it would the name be permanent.

After hesitating for a moment, he picked up Ah Kong and walked out.

He met no one along the way, not even the miners.

Ah Kong looked at the human and trembled in fear. It knew it was going to die today.

When the human reached the open space outside, he brandished a knife.

Clang!

Ah Kong knew it was going to die. But, after a while, it felt its bindings loosen.

Then, it shockingly discovered that it was free!

It looked at the person in front of it in disbelief.

“Why?” it asked.

“Just go.” Jiang Hao stored away his knife and turned to leave.

Letting a thieving sea creature go wasn’t a big deal. It was a small gamble.

At most, he would lose a captive sea monster. Or, if it kept its end of the bargain, he might gain a lot.

Anyhow, after this, he wouldn’t lose any more rags.

Ah Kong stared at him for a while, then it entered the misty fog in gratitude and disappeared completely.

At noon, Zheng Shijiu came to find him.

He said that a thieving sea creature had disappeared.

“Oh…

Jiang Hao’s indifferent attitude surprised Zheng Shijiu.

Then, Zheng Shijiu asked if he needed him to act on it.

Jiang Hao told him to do as he saw fit.

Zheng Shijiu never paid attention to the matter again, and naturally, others didn’t care either.

This matter did not cause a big commotion. Instead, Jiang Hao going back in to clean the wall did cause some fuss.

It lasted from mid-March until the end of May. A full four months.

They mined for four months, while their manager did nothing but clean the wall for four months.

It was unbelievable.

Jiang Hao looked at the wall. His cleaning was about to end. Once it was done, only the last layer would remain.

For such a thin layer of dirt, he didn’t need to clean for long. He decided to do it slowly.

If others found out, they would be curious and come to check it out.

Despite the constant mockery from the people outside, each of them was curious about this wall.

They all wanted to come and clean it to see what was so captivating about it.

After a few days, in early June, Jiang Hao had cleaned all of it. Only a last layer of dirt remained.

If he cleaned it, the secret of the wall would be revealed.

He looked and perceived his surroundings using his senses.

He made sure that no one was approaching and that the fog wasn’t shifting. Then, he continued to clean.

For these few months, he hadn’t noticed any changes in his surroundings.

He still remembered the waves caused by Tong Lu’s explosion.

Whenever there was a fight, these waves would spread.

He took a deep breath and started cleaning the stains on the wall.

If his guess was correct, many people would be alerted by this.

There might also be a few extra bubbles. However, the sect wouldn’t trouble him for mere bubbles.

It was different with the Saint Bandit. They would likely target him.

He didn’t care. He was already being targeted by too many people anyway. One more wouldn’t matter.

‘Well… nothing seems amiss in the surroundings. The seniors of the Lawless Tower might arrive soon to check this. Now is the best time to do it.’

After calming himself down, Jiang Hao started to clean the topmost part of the wall.

[Cultivation +1]

[Spirit Sword +1]

The words emerged.

Two words written in the language of the Heavenly Spirit Tribe.

A faint light emanated from the words engraved on the wall.

Jiang Hao read them out loud: “Heaven Lock.”

Without pausing, he moved to the leftmost part and started cleaning from top to bottom.

Blue bubbles fell once again.

[Lifeblood +1]

[Spirit +1]

Some more words appeared.

“If I don’t die, the great thief will live forever.”

The light gradually bloomed, and the aura spread with it.

The light surged as if it had waited countless years to burst forth.

Without hesitation, Jiang Hao continued to clean.

As he cleaned, more bubbles fell. There was always a blue bubble.

Outside, Zheng Shijiu and others stood in their positions and waited for the sect’s people to come and inspect the area.

They hadn’t left this place in a while, and everyone was curious.

When the seniors from the sect arrived, they turned a blind eye to their mining activities.

This allowed them to harvest quite a bit of ore, which they later sold for a considerable amount of spirit stones.

Of course, for safety reasons, they received very little.

The vast majority was saved to be handed over to the sect.

“It’s been over four months. Hasn’t that wall been cleaned enough?” said Xiao Xiaohui as she looked in the direction where Jiang Hao was.

Others agreed with her.

Zheng Shijiu, who had gone inside a few times, had seen the wall. It was pretty clear by now. It was almost as smooth as a bald head.

“I wonder how much longer Junior Brother Jiang will continue cleaning.” Xin

Yuyue sighed.

Yue You shook her head.

“Now everyone says that the manager is just putting on a show. Go and listen. They all gossip about it,” said a bald Golden Core Realm cultivator..
