Cultivation knew no years.
In the blink of an eye, three years passed.
Over those three years, Haotian Demon Lord's forces continuously waged war in all directions, gathering followers and expanding their strength. Jiang Hao now commanded more than sixty Loose Immortal-level demonic cultivators, becoming an unprecedentedly powerful force in the demonic path. The entire demonic path feared him.
Over those three years, every living-soul-type magical artifact in the demonic path was swept away by Jiang Hao. Things like demon soul banners and lost soul arrays had all vanished without a trace.
Jiang Hao had also gained no fewer than a million Merit Points.
Over those three years, Haotian Demon Lord's name shook all four corners of the world, becoming the most resounding name in the entire demonic path. Some righteous cultivators became wary, afraid that he would extend his demonic claws toward the righteous path. Others admired Jiang Hao for controlling the demonic path and preventing its cultivators from harming ordinary people.
And over those three years, Jiang Hao cultivated without pause. With Luan Mingyue, Liu Xixi, and Chi Mei—three great cultivators with millennia of cultivation—cultivating together with him, his cultivation had long since been tempered to perfection.
One day, Jiang Hao was cultivating in seclusion alone when a feeling suddenly arose deep within his heart. Heavenly fate descended. His Heavenly Tribulation was coming.
Rather than being afraid of the arriving Heavenly Tribulation, Jiang Hao was extremely excited.
It meant his cultivation could rise to another level. After overcoming the tribulation and entering the Mahayana Stage, the spiritual energy within his body would transform into Immortal Spiritual Energy. Then he would shed his mortal flesh and be ready to ascend to the Immortal Realm at any time.
As a cultivator, he naturally yearned beyond measure for that legendary world.
