Wu Shattered Star River

"Rare Stone Exhibition?"

Jiang Han's face darkened upon hearing the name, and he refused, "I'm not going. The risk is too great."

A Rare Stone Exhibition sounded like a stone gambling competition, and Jiang Han didn't want to be in the spotlight.

He didn't have a pressing need for Xuan Stones right now. He had merits that could be exchanged for some Xuan materials, and if he was lucky in the God-Demon Battlefield, he could get a lot of Xuan materials. Why take the risk?

"Trust me, there's no risk at all!"

Jiang Lang persuaded, "This Rare Stone Exhibition is jointly organized by several major chambers of commerce, and they will bring out many rare stones. Some of the rare stones are worth over a hundred billion. Any random raw stone is worth tens of millions. We spend a hundred million to buy one, and if it increases three or five times, it won't be conspicuous at all."

Jiang Han still shook his head and said, "I'm not going. What's the point of you earning a few hundred million Xuan Stones? You can just sell some divine talismans and have them, right?"

"I can't sell divine talismans!"

Jiang Lang said with a mournful face, "I only have so many divine talismans, and I've used a lot already. If I sell any more, I'll run out."

"You've been eating my food and using my things all along the way, and you just spent fifty million to buy Dragon Tips. You also know that I have a lot of expenses. If I don't get some Xuan Stones, I won't even be able to afford the flower wine at the Dark Market."

Jiang Han remained unmoved. Jiang Lang glared and said, "You're not going? Then you can go ask the Palace Lord yourself, and find someone to set up the divine formation yourself. I don't care anymore. Don't ask me for Xuan Stones in the future."

Jiang Han touched his nose and sighed, "Then I'll make a move once, but no more than five hundred million, and you go buy the stones. I'll only be responsible for looking."

"Deal!"

Jiang Lang quickly changed his face, massaging Jiang Han's shoulders and back. "It's still Brother Han who cares about me. This Rare Stone Exhibition is a gathering of heroes. Young masters and young ladies from nearby major forces will come. Brother Han, you have a chance to hook up with one."

"I heard that Si Li, the number one young lady of Sword Demon Mountain, a Dominator-level force above the Moon Gazing Pavilion, will also come. If you can hook up with her, you can immediately rise to prominence and soar to the sky."

"Get out! Get out! Get out!"

Jiang Han waved his hand and said, "Isn't there still three days? You go take care of things first. Go talk to the Palace Lord and contact a divine formation master."

"Alright, leave it to me!"

Jiang Lang trotted away. Jiang Han had a headache. He really didn't want to go to this kind of Rare Stone Exhibition. It was easy for accidents to happen.

He only wanted to improve his combat power now, and he had no interest in anything else.

He went into closed-door cultivation for two days. Early in the morning on the third day, Jiang Lang knocked on his door, saying that Lu Feixian had already agreed.

In addition, there was a divine formation master in Feixian Palace. He had negotiated the price, twenty million to help them set up these two divine formations, and they would provide the materials.

"How do we get to Moon Gazing Island? By warship? Is it still in time?"

Jiang Han walked out with Jiang Lang. Jiang Lang smiled and said, "There's a teleportation array that can teleport us directly. Don't forget, the Palace Lord used to be the daughter of the previous Palace Lord of the Moon Gazing Pavilion, and she has a close relationship with the Moon Gazing Pavilion."

"Do we need to disguise ourselves?"

Jiang Han asked again. Jiang Lang thought for a moment and said, "Let's wear masks. Although strong people can see through them, we're not doing much. Wearing masks will avoid running into acquaintances."

"Alright!"

Jiang Han didn't say anything more and followed Jiang Lang to the main peak. There were more than a dozen teleportation arrays in the main peak square, one of which teleported to the Moon Gazing Pavilion, but it required a fee, one hundred thousand Xuan Stones per teleportation.

Jiang Lang readily gave the Xuan Stones, and the disciple guarding the teleportation array didn't ask much and activated the teleportation array.

A white light flashed, and the two appeared in a small city. Jiang Han looked around and asked in a low voice, "This is Moon Gazing City?"

"This is Guard Moon City."

Jiang Lang said, "This is just a nearby satellite city. We still need to walk a hundred miles to reach Moon Gazing City. Let's go."

The two left the small city and ran along the official road to the north. The official road was very wide, and many people were traveling from Guard Moon City to Moon Gazing City. They often saw luxurious carriages and chariots.

After running for half an hour, the two arrived outside a giant city. This city was much larger than Starsea City, very majestic and imposing. There was also a faint white light on the top of the city, probably a city protection formation.

There were four guards at the city gate. The guards didn't charge an entrance fee and didn't check the two of them. They just glanced at them lightly and let them enter the city.

"What's the point of them guarding here?"

Jiang Han didn't understand. The four guards at the city gate felt like they were all at the Mountain Sea Realm. Were the four Mountain Sea Realm standing there just to show off?

Jiang Lang thought for a moment and said, "They should be checking for demon and demon races, especially high-level demon races who are proficient in transformation techniques, to prevent demon races from sneaking into the city."

Entering the city, there were shops, inns, and taverns everywhere, a dazzling array that made people's eyes blur.

The city was bustling with people, carriages, and horses, much more lively than Feixian Island.

Jiang Lang didn't stay in the city and led Jiang Han through Moon Gazing City, exiting from the north gate.

"Where are we going?"

Jiang Han didn't understand. Jiang Lang pointed to a high mountain in front and said, "The Rare Stone Exhibition isn't in the city, it's by Moon Gazing Lake. That mountain is where the Moon Gazing Pavilion headquarters is located, Moon Gazing Mountain. There's a Moon Gazing Lake at the foot of the mountain. We're going to the lake."

Jiang Han could only follow Jiang Lang silently. The traffic of carriages and people on the official road was even greater along the way. They had to stop from time to time to let some luxurious convoys pass.

This time the distance was not far. They arrived at a lake in just the time it takes to burn an incense stick.

Moon Gazing Lake was very large. At a glance, it was estimated to be at least ten miles in diameter. The scenery by the lake was very beautiful. There were patches of purple dragon bamboo, and it was also planted with tall trees that could bloom with pink flowers.

Before even approaching Moon Gazing Lake, Jiang Han and Jiang Lang smelled a refreshing floral fragrance. After smelling it a few times, they felt refreshed and energetic.

On a large open space on the west side of Moon Gazing Lake, next to Moon Gazing Mountain, people had fenced it off with white wooden walls that were several feet high. Under the wooden walls, a disciple of the Moon Gazing Pavilion stood every ten feet.

This area was under martial law, and it was estimated that not just anyone could enter.

Jiang Lang led Jiang Han to a large gate. There were even more Moon Gazing Pavilion disciples here, and two Reincarnation Realm experts were stationed here.

Jiang Lang led Jiang Han over and handed over the Feixian Palace token.

A Reincarnation Realm expert checked it and said, "If you want to enter, you must verify your assets. You must have at least 100 million Xuan Stones to enter."

Jiang Lang smiled and took out a dark card. Jiang Han frowned. Were dark cards also common here?

The Reincarnation Realm expert from Moon Gazing Pavilion took the dark card, infused it with Xuan power, and then nodded, "You two can enter, but remember, you must not mess around inside, otherwise even your Palace Lord can't protect you."

"Understood!"

Jiang Lang nodded repeatedly, and Jiang Han followed in without saying a word.

Upon entering, there was a purple dragon bamboo forest. After passing through this bamboo forest, it suddenly opened up.

Jiang Han and the two took a look and gasped.

On a clearing of more than ten miles in front, countless golden wooden platforms were densely packed everywhere, and raw stones were placed on the wooden platforms.

Just by looking, there were hundreds of thousands of raw stones here, and there were even more people inside, nearly ten thousand at a glance. Many young masters and young ladies were wearing brocade robes and gorgeous clothes, with a group of followers, with elegant temperament and extraordinary bearing.

In contrast, Jiang Han and Jiang Lang were wearing ordinary robes, looking like two country bumpkins.

These were not the main points. The main point was that there were two giant beasts entrenched by the lake, two giant black-horned, red-backed turtles that were ten feet tall.

Although these two giant turtles had restrained their aura, Jiang Han and Jiang Lang could tell with a few glances that these two giant turtles were definitely demon beasts above the fifth rank.

These two giant turtles were quietly entrenched in the shallow water area of the lake. Although many people by the lake looked at them from time to time, they were all curious and not afraid.

This showed that these two giant turtles had been tamed, either as war beasts or as mountain-guarding divine beasts.
