Wu Shattered Star River

The two suites had exactly six rooms, and the rooms on the top floor were much more comfortable than those below.

The warship continued to move forward. It was very safe on the warship, so Jiang Han and Jiang Lang didn't care too much and went into seclusion.

Niu Meng often dozed off, and Qi Bing liked to lock herself in her room when she had nothing to do, but Zuo Yiyi and Xiong Jingjing were restless.

For the first few days, the two of them felt very fresh. They would occasionally go to the restaurant on the top floor, and sometimes they would stand on the deck and look down at the scenery.

However, the novelty wore off after a few days. Seeing that everyone else was in seclusion cultivating, they felt bored and followed suit.

Half a month later, the warship stopped again. It had arrived at the northernmost city in Xizhou. Beyond this city was Youzhou.

The warship stopped here for half a day, and Zuo Yiyi and Xiong Jingjing wanted to go down and play. However, Jiang Lang didn't allow it, so the two had to return to their rooms to cultivate in a huff.

Jiang Han and Jiang Lang had agreed that they would not leave the warship before arriving at Starsea City.

It was safest on the warship. Anything could happen if they left it.

They urgently needed to improve their cultivation, so they planned to stay in seclusion on the warship until they arrived at Starsea City.

"Jiang Han, this is for you!"

Jiang Lang threw ten bottles of pills to Jiang Han and explained, "This is a soul nourishing pill. Take one every five days. After you finish them all, your soul strength should increase by one times."

"So strong?"

Jiang Han was shocked. Although he didn't know what the use of improving the soul was, it was always good to improve it.

These pills seemed to have been obtained by Jiang Lang from the Jiang family. They were top-grade pills; otherwise, ten bottles couldn't possibly increase soul strength by one times.

"Yes!"

Jiang Lang nodded slightly and said, "Your roar-like divine ability is a soul attack. If your soul becomes stronger, the power of this divine ability will increase. It's a pity we don't have Celestial Marrow. If we could get some Celestial Marrow, the power of all your divine abilities could be improved."

"Celestial Marrow? The power of all divine abilities can be improved? That's so perverted?"

Jiang Han had never heard of this before. He asked, "Can Celestial Marrow be bought?"

Divine abilities were a cultivator's main combat techniques. For example, if the power of Jiang Han's Shattered Arms divine ability could be improved to shatter Heaven-rank divine weapons, then Jiang Han's combat strength would greatly increase.

Another example was the Dragon Roar divine ability. It could only severely injure Profound Sea Realm cultivators now, but if it could affect Mountain Sea Realm ninth-level cultivators, then Jiang Han could sweep across the Mountain Sea Realm.

"Dream on!"

Jiang Lang shook his head and said, "Celestial Marrow can increase the power of divine abilities of cultivators below the Heaven Human Realm by one times. Do you think such a treasure would be for sale?"

"Every time some appears, there will be a mad scramble for it, and it will generally fall into the hands of large forces. This thing is priceless. After large forces obtain it, they will use it themselves, so how could they sell it?"

"A few years ago, an auction house sold a little!"

Jiang Lang recalled something and sighed, "Just a drop of Celestial Marrow sold for a sky-high price of ten billion. Even if it were for sale, you couldn't afford it."

"…"

Jiang Han clicked his tongue silently and didn't ask any more questions. Jiang Lang turned around and went back to his room to cultivate in seclusion.

Half a day later, the warship set off again, soaring through the air towards the north.

…

"Finally on board!"

In a room on the second floor of the warship, a middle-aged man with ordinary looks sighed.

There was another person in the room, with a face full of stubble, an ordinary build, and a seemingly low cultivation level. He didn't seem to stand out in any way.

He said expressionlessly, "Jiang Han should be above. According to the information from the Intelligence Hall, Jiang Han hasn't left the ship."

These two unremarkable middle-aged men were none other than "Ox-Head" and "Horse-Face" from the Yunzhou branch of the Gate of Life and Death.

After leaving Ghost Cry Canyon, the two teleported all the way to Blackcloud City. Then, they crossed mountains and ridges, continuously traveling for ten days and ten nights to reach a city in Xizhou.

They entered Dark City through this city, teleported continuously, and arrived at the northernmost city in Xizhou. After waiting for more than ten days, they finally boarded this warship just now.

"Rest!"

Horse-Face lay down on the hard bunk and said, "We only need to keep an eye on him when the warship stops. If Jiang Han leaves the warship, we'll follow him. If he doesn't leave the warship, we can only keep following him."

"Yes…"

Ox-Head nodded and said, "I think he probably won't get off along the way. We may have to follow him to Starsea City."

"Whatever!"

Horse-Face waved his hand and said, "It's just a few months. When we arrive at Starsea City, he will definitely go out to sea. Once he goes out to sea, we can easily find an opportunity to kill him."

"Good!"

Ox-Head didn't say anything else and sat cross-legged in the corner to begin cultivating.

…

Time flew by quickly. In the blink of an eye, five months had passed.

The warship had crossed half of the Nine Provinces Continent, and Jiang Han and the others hadn't left even once during the six or seven stops along the way.

Jiang Han and Jiang Lang had spent almost all of these months in seclusion, constantly constructing their altars.

Jiang Han was making good progress. In five months, he had constructed three altars, and he was now a Profound Sea Realm eighth-level cultivator.

He had finished refining all of the soul nourishing pills that Jiang Lang had given him. Jiang Han didn't know how much his soul strength had increased, and it wasn't a good time to test the Dragon Roar divine ability, so he didn't know if its power had increased.

What frustrated Jiang Han was that after constructing eight altars, he hadn't awakened a single lightning-type divine ability. This made him wonder if he was suited to follow the lightning-type path.

This was also why many cultivators wouldn't always refine Xuan materials of a single attribute.

Because refining multiple Xuan materials would greatly increase the chances of awakening divine abilities. Although many divine abilities wouldn't be too strong, it was still better than having no divine abilities, right?

Starsea City was almost here, so Jiang Han thought for a while and knocked on Jiang Lang's door.

Jiang Lang opened the door, and Jiang Han walked in and told him about how he had constructed eight altars but hadn't awakened a single divine ability.

He asked, "Jiang Lang, is it that everyone's physique is different, so they are incompatible with Xuan materials of some attributes?"

Under normal circumstances, most people would awaken divine abilities of varying strengths after constructing a few altars. Jiang Han had constructed eight, so there was no reason why he shouldn't have awakened a lightning-attribute divine ability.

"Construct another one!"

Jiang Lang thought for a while and said, "If the lightning-attribute Xuan material conflicts with your physique, your speed of constructing altars wouldn't be so fast, and it wouldn't be stable."

"Since you don't have this situation, then construct another one. If you successfully construct nine altars and still haven't awakened a divine ability, then there might be a problem. We can switch to other attribute Xuan materials then."

"Yes!"

Jiang Han nodded. It didn't matter to him to construct one more altar anyway.

Jiang Han looked at Jiang Lang and said, "What about you? It's been five months. How many altars have you constructed?"

Jiang Lang's spatial ring must be filled with Xuan materials, and he had an endless supply of them. His talent was so good, so his cultivation speed couldn't be slow.

"So-so!"

Jiang Lang curled his lips and said, "I haven't cultivated for so many years, so I'm not in good shape. I've only constructed two altars."

"Awesome!"

Jiang Han gave a thumbs up. The further along you went, the harder it was to construct altars. Mountain Sea altars were much more difficult to construct than Profound Sea altars.

He had constructed three altars in five months, and Jiang Lang had only constructed two. It seemed like Jiang Han had one more, but in reality, Jiang Lang's cultivation speed was a little faster than his.

"Buzz!"

While they were talking, the warship shook slightly and began to slow down.

Knocking on the door outside quickly sounded, and Zuo Yiyi's excited voice came, "Jiang Han, Fatty, Niu Meng, Starsea City is here. Come and see, Starsea City is so beautiful!"

Jiang Han and Jiang Lang walked out. The two of them didn't look down, but instead looked at Zuo Yiyi, Qi Bing, and the others. After sensing them, both of them revealed looks of surprise.

Jiang Lang said in surprise, "Bingbing, you've broken through to the Mountain Sea Realm?"

Qi Bing nodded slightly and said, "I was lucky to break through!"

"Hehe!"

Zuo Yiyi grinned and said, "Sister Bing has not only broken through to the Mountain Sea Realm, but she has also awakened the Ice Domain divine ability. Now, beating you to death, you dead fatty, is as easy as crushing an ant."
