At the Heavenly Note Sect, as the sun and moon alternated in the sky, Jiang Hao began to copy the runes of the talisman as instructed.

His mind was clear.

Only when the sun completely disappeared did he finally lay down the last stroke.

Soon after, a complete set of symbols appeared in his mind.

Being in the early stage of the Immortal Ascension Platform helped him memorize the symbols quickly enough.

When he opened his eyes again, the stone tablet had shattered.

He obtained the inheritance of the Power Clone Talisman.

Now, it was time to buy some materials.

The requirements for the Power Clone Talisman were very high, and it required high-grade materials.

A stack of materials would cost him one thousand spirit stones.

Given its high cost, Jiang Hao knew that mastering the talisman wouldn’t be easy.

In ten days, he had failed ten times in a row.

He spent another one thousand spirit stones to continue crafting the talisman. Logically, he had done everything right, and he shouldn’t have failed. And yet, he did.

The Power Clone Talisman required power. He failed even in that.

After some thought, he decided to suppress his divine sense and see if it worked.

Five days later, a golden light flashed, and the talisman appeared on the table.

“It worked!”

He appraised it to see if he succeeded.

[Power Clone Talisman: Activate it with spiritual energy and reflect it on yourself. You can condense a doppelganger with your power. You can inject basic spells into it. You can easily control it within your field of vision. It cannot be finely controlled, can’t sustain with strength continuously, and can’t be integrated with divine sense. The clone has the power of the Soul Ascension

Realm and can last for two hours.]

Jiang Hao frowned slightly. Was this really a Power Clone Talisman?

The limitations were too many. He could only remotely control it.

It could barely be considered a clone. At most, it might just look like him with no other use.

Moreover, it could only last for two hours and was uncontrollable beyond the field of vision.

‘It feels like a waste of strength just to make something with a shape. It’s not very useful…’

With that in mind, he infused spiritual energy and reflected it on the spirit beast in the courtyard.

Sure enough, a Soul Ascension Realm beast appeared next to it.

It looked exactly the same as the spirit beast. Even the treasure and fur on its body were the same.

‘I wonder how it works with a person…’

Jiang Hao was curious and continued crafting the talismans.

Three days later, he succeeded yet again in making another.

This time, he tried it on himself. A person who looked exactly like him appeared by his side.

The person was in the Soul Ascension Realm.

He couldn’t sense any difference when he inspected it with his divine sense. Only the knowledge from the nameless manual helped him differentiate the clone from the real him.

He tried moving the clothes a bit, and he saw strength stripes underneath his clothes.

“It’s not accurate…” Jiang Hao sighed.

However, it was still quite powerful, especially when infused with the Thousand Miles Demonic Sound Slash after enclosing it in the Heavenly Cauldron.

But where could he use such a clone?

He could use it as bait. It wouldn’t be discovered easily.

The talisman runes were not easy to make out.

The Breath Concealment Talisman, the Heaven Secrets Hidden Talisman, and the Power Clone Talisman had similar traits.

He felt that the senior who found these talismans was a bit insecure.

Jiang Hao still had a lot of spirit stones, so he decided to spend another eight thousand on materials.

The success rate went from once every three to four days at the beginning to once every two to three days.

A month and a half later, around early May, Jiang Hao accumulated ten Power Clone Talismans.

He still had half of the materials left.

He had intended to continue making them but suddenly felt a reaction from the Mountain Sea Seal.

He had also set up seals around Senior Brother Mu Qi’s place.

When the mission ended, he returned to the Spirit Herb Garden, and Mu Qi and Miao Tinglian had also gone their own way.

Jiang Hao didn’t sense the arrival of the Holy Master from the Heavenly Saint Sect.

He had set up seals around Mu Qi and Miao Tinglian’s house.

Sure enough, there was a reaction.

He was unsure about the opponent’s cultivation realm, so he didn’t dare to confront them recklessly.

At the same time, the stone tablet also vibrated.

It seemed that another gathering was close.

Jiang Hao didn’t think he had anything to say at the gathering, so he had planned to be quiet.

He went to Senior Brother Mu Qi’s house.

The Mountain Sea Seal was all over the place.

The purpose of the seal was to try to capture the divine soul of the Holy Master.

He sensed that there was indeed a faint trace of divine energy in the place.

It was very subtle, and without the Mountain Sea Seal, he wouldn’t have noticed it.

‘It seems impossible for others to detect it…’

Jiang Hao lowered his head in thought.

‘I have to try to figure out the strength of the divine soul of the Holy Master to decide the next step. If there’s no other way, I’ll have to inform Liu Xingchen or send Xiao Li to inform the Cliff Master…’

The best course of action was to inform Liu Xingchen.

However, it’s not the right time yet.

Although the other party had locked onto this place, they were still restrained by something. It might take some time for them to arrive.

‘I should consider how to deal with this…’

Since he didn’t know what method the person might use, he couldn’t decide what alternative to use to confront them.

He could try to use the Power Clone Talisman if possible.

‘I’ll attend the gathering first and see if I can find anything on the Holy Master. If I can, I’ll figure out a way to deal with it. If not… I’ll have to think of something else…’

Ordinary Saintesses might not know much about the Holy Master. Otherwise, he could have asked Miao Tinglian or Ming Yi.

‘Speaking of which, it’s been a long time since I last saw Senior Sister Ming Yi.’

In the South, there was a spacious place beyond the high mountains where countless disciples gathered and cheered.

“The return of the Holy Master is near! Let us pave the way for the Holy Master and await his return to the world!” shouted an Elder from a high platform.

The people cheered with him.

At that moment, some people were plotting something else beneath the palace.

They sat on high chairs and frowned.

“We have already confirmed which substitute Saintess it’ll be,” said an old woman. “It’s unexpectedly Miao Tinglian from the Heavenly Note Sect.” “Miao Tinglian? She has been in the Heavenly Note Sect for many years now. That traitor has been chosen by the Holy Master?! She must be lucky,” said a middle-aged beautiful woman icily.

“The Heavenly Note Sect’s reputation has been rising lately. The situation is complicated. I don’t know if there will be any trouble this time,” said a middle-aged man.

“Can the Heavenly Note Sect be compared to the Holy Master? Their fame is nothing!” said a young man passionately. “The Holy Master is mysterious and unfathomable. He is unparalleled throughout history. What is a mere sect like the Heavenly Note Sect?”

“Besides Miao Tinglian, there is another person in the Heavenly Note Sect that we need to pay attention to… His name is Jiang Hao. He knows the secrets of the mines,” said the old woman.

“I think that’s unlikely. The people exaggerated the matter about Yan Hua. How could a Golden Core Realm cultivator know the secret of the mine?” the middle-aged man asked.

“What if he does? I’ve been paying attention to Jiang Hao. He often appears on the sect’s merit list. According to rumors, he is treated favorably in the Heavenly Note Sect. In any case, it’s not as simple as you think,” the old woman said.

“In that case, inform the Holy Master and let him decide. It won’t be long before the Holy Master’s divine soul communicates with us. Perhaps we’ll need to clear the way for him, ” the middle-aged man said..
