Wu Shattered Star River

The rendezvous was set for dusk. The night was enchanting. Jiang Han hosted the Moon Saintess in a pavilion in the backyard, with Chunhua and Xia Yue standing behind them to serve.

The Moon Saintess possessed a unique charm, a blend of radiance and girlish vivacity. Her large, sparkling eyes were a delight to behold.

Jiang Han didn't rush into deep conversations with the Moon Saintess. He kept the talk to general observations to ease her wariness. He wasn't planning to discuss sensitive topics today, just to build rapport.

Jiang Han's knowledge and experience were naturally beyond the Moon Saintess's. He had his own personal charm. How could the Moon Saintess, a young woman who had grown up in a sect, heavily protected by her clan, be a match for Jiang Han?

After just an hour of casual conversation and a little wine, their relationship had grown closer.

The Moon Saintess had received instructions from the Third Elder to keep Jiang Han dangling, so she would subconsciously try to please him. They enjoyed their conversation and chatted the entire evening. The Moon Saintess's attitude towards Jiang Han changed considerably.

Jiang Han didn't make any frivolous moves, nor did he reveal any intention of pursuing or obtaining the Moon Saintess. This, in turn, made the Moon Saintess feel very favorable towards Jiang Han.

Moreover, Jiang Han exuded mystery and the confidence of a strong individual, which was a great attraction to women. Jiang Han was still young and had a good appearance. It was only natural for the Moon Saintess to feel favorable towards him.

After the Moon Saintess returned, the Third Elder summoned her and inquired about her conversation with Jiang Han. After listening, the Third Elder said she could continue to interact with Jiang Han.

But she must remember not to fall in love, not to let Jiang Han succeed. She could engage in some flirtation, have some minor intimacy, but must be careful to maintain distance.

The key principle was to keep Jiang Han dangling.

The next day, Jiang Han invited the Moon Saintess to take him around the White Fox Gate to see the sights and learn about the sect.

The Moon Saintess didn't dare to make a decision on her own and consulted the Third Elder, who said she could bring two maids along. Anyway, within the sect's territory, Jiang Han shouldn't dare to act rashly, or he would be hunted down by all the sect's experts.

The Moon Saintess, accompanied by two maids, began to tour the sect with Jiang Han. Jiang Han didn't act inappropriately towards the Moon Saintess, but continued to chat casually while touring. After three days of touring, their relationship seemed to have become slightly closer.

The Moon Saintess kept the Third Elder's words in mind, remaining aloof from Jiang Han, not easily showing her feelings, nor falling in love, but just interacting like a friend.

After three days of touring, Jiang Han asked about some information.

Such as the Myriad Stele Forest!

This treasure land was somewhat far from here, located within the territory of a six-star power, the 'Zhengyang Sect'.

This treasure land didn't belong to any major power. It was established by a strong individual from the Order of Light back then.

He died here for some unknown reason, and left behind a stele. Later, some experts would slowly leave some stone tablets, and eventually there were more and more.

A supreme expert from the Order of Light made some arrangements here, so any expert of the Path of Light could enter, but to enter, certain conditions had to be met. Ordinary cultivators couldn't enter.

This wasn't based on realm, but on whether you were a genius. Only geniuses were qualified to enter.

In other words…

This place was for nurturing geniuses. It was the Order of Light opening a door for the geniuses and elites of the Path of Light, giving them a chance to obtain opportunities here.

As for the situation in the other Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Jiang Han didn't find out. The sect's leaders were all experts from the Land of the Gods, and there were no experts from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Also, Jiang Han didn't inquire about Mo Xie's Grand Righteousness Path. This would easily arouse the Moon Saintess's vigilance. Anyway, there was no rush, he could slowly inquire later.

After returning, Jiang Han told the Third Elder and went to a place in the sect to cultivate.

This place was called White Spring Valley, the place with the most concentrated spiritual energy in the entire sect.

Now that he was here, Jiang Han naturally wanted to absorb some of the spiritual energy here to see if there was anything different.

He had a large amount of spiritual energy from the Land of Eternal Winter in his Other Shore space. He wanted to see if he could fuse them together? To refine some other strange energy.

He arrived at White Spring Valley. It was very large, with many cultivators inside, and small palaces built within.

Powerful formations had been built here, guarded by only a few Saint Sovereigns.

This valley didn't have anything special, just particularly concentrated spiritual energy, so there was no need for strong experts to guard it.

Jiang Han arrived here and found many young men and women of the White Fox Clan cultivating here.

He chose a palace, and then said to the guarding Saint Sovereign, "I may absorb a lot of spiritual energy, so don't be surprised when that happens. I'll stop when I've absorbed enough, and it will take a few months for this place to recover."

"Absorb a lot of spiritual energy?"

The Saint Sovereign blinked. The spiritual energy here was so concentrated, and the valley was so large, how much could Jiang Han absorb alone?

He didn't say anything, and bowed, "I understand, Sect Leader, please cultivate with peace of mind!"

Jiang Han opened the palace formation, then entered the Other Shore space. He began to tear the space, letting the outside spiritual energy in.

"Hmm…"

After Jiang Han began to absorb, the several Saint Sovereigns guarding here were all frightened.

Because all the spiritual energy in the valley began to flow, slowly converging towards the palace where Jiang Han was, like a tide. The spiritual energy here had become much thinner.

This valley was hundreds of miles large, and the spiritual energy inside was concentrated to a terrifying degree. Even if all the cultivators of the White Fox Gate came together to absorb it, it would take several years to absorb it all, right?

But he didn't expect Jiang Han to absorb so fiercely?

This was like ordinary cultivators absorbing spiritual energy, just taking small sips of wine, but Jiang Han felt like he was holding a wine barrel and pouring it directly, without stopping…

After waiting for three days, the several Saint Sovereigns discovered that the spiritual energy showed no signs of stopping, and one Saint Sovereign quietly left to report to the Third Elder.

Although there was no problem with the spiritual energy in White Spring Valley being absorbed, it would recover in a few months. But with such an unusual situation, he naturally had to report it, otherwise it would be his dereliction of duty.

More than an hour later, the Third Elder and the Moon Saintess teleported over.

As soon as they arrived, they sensed it, and discovered that the spiritual energy was still continuously pouring into the palace where Jiang Han was, and the spiritual energy here was already much thinner.

"Absorbing so much?"

The Third Elder frowned. She didn't rashly disturb Jiang Han, but waited and observed here.

The Moon Saintess stood aside without speaking, her large, sparkling eyes filled with curiosity. She always felt that Jiang Han was very mysterious, like a treasure trove, with endless treasures hidden inside.

The Third Elder observed here for three days, and she said to the Moon Saintess, "Let's go, go back, go see the Sect Master!"

The Moon Saintess asked with some confusion, "What are we doing seeing the Sect Master for?"

The Third Elder glanced at the palace where Jiang Han was, and transmitted her voice, "Sect Leader Jiang is likely hiding his strength. Ordinary Dao Ancestor realms can't absorb spiritual energy so quickly, and even if they can absorb, they can't absorb that much."

"Sect Leader Jiang's strength… is very likely stronger than we imagined. We must find a way to keep such a genius, at all costs, including… you!"

"Ah?"

The Moon Saintess exclaimed, covering her mouth with her jade hand, but her gaze turned towards Jiang Han's palace, and her eyes gradually softened.

She was destined to be sent out for marriage sooner or later, if the object was Jiang Han, perhaps… it wouldn't be bad?
