Wu Shattered Star River

"Alright!"

Jiang Han's spatial ring shimmered, and ten dark cards appeared. He tossed them to Jiang Han, saying, "Let's split the money. This is ten hundred million. The rest is mine."

"Ten hundred million?"

Jiang Han frowned. Without even thinking, he tossed back three dark cards, saying, "Let's split it fifty-fifty. If we're brothers, don't stand on ceremony. Without you… even if I got the Xuan stones, I wouldn't be able to take them away, and I'd lose my life."

"What are you implying?"

Jiang Lang glared at Jiang Han askance, saying, "Now that you're rich, you're acting like a big shot? Pitying me?"

Jiang Han looked at Jiang Lang with sincerity and said, "You know, I don't mean that."

Jiang Lang waved his hand domineeringly, saying, "Stop talking nonsense. Brothers are for life. We'll be doing this again in the future, it's not just this once. If you say another word, I'll leave right now, and you can go back by yourself."

"Alright!"

Jiang Han didn't insist anymore, but his evaluation of Jiang Lang increased by several notches.

Not everyone could remain unmoved by three hundred million Xuan stones, and still refuse so resolutely.

Jiang Lang thought of something and said, "This time, we'll probably have to lie low for a while after we go back. Think about what Xuan artifacts, Xuan materials, pills, and Xuan skills you need, and buy them all at once, so you won't be targeted next time you come out."

"Also… I suggest buying a high-level concealment-type Xuan skill, otherwise, your realm will advance by leaps and bounds, and it will be easy for people to suspect you."

"Mm!"

Jiang Han nodded. After the Xuan Profound Realm, cultivation requires a large amount of Xuan materials. The construction of each altar requires condensing Xuan materials into it, such as Xuan crystals, lithium stones, and brown bloodstones, which are all Xuan materials.

The human body needs to open nine secret realms, and after opening them, altars need to be constructed to stabilize the secret realms.

The nine altars are easy to construct at the beginning, but the further you go, the harder it becomes.

It's like a tall building. The higher it's built, the easier it is to collapse.

Therefore, various Xuan materials need to be condensed when constructing the eight altars to make the altars more stable.

Another very important point is awakening divine abilities!

Why are so few Purple Mansion Realm cultivators able to awaken divine abilities? It's because only the Xuan Profound Realm can awaken them.

This is because the Purple Mansion altar only needs Xuan power to construct it, without condensing any Xuan materials.

After the Xuan Profound Realm, Xuan materials need to be condensed. Only when Xuan materials are condensed within the altar is there a chance to awaken divine abilities.

What are Xuan materials?

They are natural treasures formed in the world, special crystals condensed from various elements.

These treasures contain various strange elements, which are the spirits of heaven and earth, the treasures nurtured by heaven and earth.

When martial arts cultivation reaches its peak, it emphasizes the unity of man and nature, and the integration of the great Dao.

How can humans unite with heaven and earth, and how can they integrate with the great Dao? Can they unite for no reason? Can they integrate casually?

There must be a bridge!

Condensing various Xuan materials into the altar is building a bridge between the martial artist and heaven and earth, and with the great Dao.

It allows the human body to have the divine objects nurtured by heaven and earth, and the seeds of the great Dao.

In other words—

Divine abilities are actually the primary application of the laws of heaven and earth, the superficial aspects of the great Dao.

This is why cultivation becomes more and more difficult later on, and requires more and more natural treasures.

The essence of martial arts is to constantly integrate with heaven and earth, and to unite with the great Dao.

The more you want to integrate, the more you naturally need to build longer and wider bridges, and the more advanced natural treasures you need.

The more natural treasures are condensed, the more compatible the martial artist will be with heaven and earth, and the more connected they will be with the great Dao. Naturally, their combat power will be stronger, and they will awaken various incredible divine abilities.

The path of cultivation not only requires diligence and talent, but also requires a massive amount of natural treasures, referred to as Xuan materials.

Jiang Han became rich overnight. Before, he didn't even have Xuan stones to buy some Xuan Spirit Pills.

Now that he has so many Xuan stones, of course he wants to buy a large amount of Xuan materials, pills, and Xuan artifacts to make his future cultivation faster and his combat power rapidly increase.

A concealment technique is even more necessary, otherwise, he is just a poor wretch with nothing to his name, and his realm is rising rapidly. It would be strange if there were no problems.

"Have you thought about it? What attribute of Xuan material do you want to condense?"

Jiang Lang asked, interrupting Jiang Han's thoughts.

Jiang Han didn't know much about this and shook his head, saying, "Whatever, see what Xuan material is easy to condense, and buy some of all attributes anyway."

"Actually… I suggest you take the single-attribute route!"

Jiang Lang's expression became solemn, and he said, "In other words, I suggest you condense Xuan materials of one attribute, just like Qi Bing, who only condenses ice-attribute Xuan materials."

"What?"

Jiang Han frowned and said, "If I condense only one type, the road ahead will be very difficult. Single-attribute Xuan materials will be more difficult to buy. And awakening divine abilities will be very difficult. Is there any difference between condensing one type and condensing multiple types?"

Xuan materials are divided into many attributes, the most common ones being the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, as well as ice, lightning, wind, darkness, light, and so on.

If you condense mixed-attribute Xuan materials, you can just buy whatever is cheap.

If you condense single-attribute Xuan materials, it will be more difficult to buy them, there will be fewer choices, and the Xuan stones spent in the future will naturally be more.

"Do you lack divine abilities?"

Jiang Lang suddenly smiled faintly and said, "Although I don't know how you awakened your divine abilities, I think you shouldn't lack them, right?"

"So, condensing multi-attribute and single-attribute Xuan materials means the same to you. Anyway, you can't use some trash divine abilities even if you awaken them, am I wrong?"

"That's the logic!"

Jiang Han asked back, "But please give me a reason to condense single-attribute Xuan materials!"

"Because…"

A look of longing appeared in Jiang Lang's eyes, and he said, "It is said that condensing single-attribute Xuan materials has a chance to achieve a Sacred Body."

"For example, Qi Bing, if she keeps condensing ice-attribute Xuan materials, if she can cultivate to the Celestial Human Realm or above, she might be able to achieve a Frost Sacred Body!"

"Sacred Body?"

A light flashed in Jiang Han's eyes, and he became somewhat interested. He asked, "Is a Sacred Body very strong?"

Jiang Lang said with unusual certainty, "Invincible in the same realm, with heaven-defying killing power!"

"I see!"

Jiang Han understood Jiang Lang's meaning.

Condensing multi-attribute Xuan materials may make cultivation faster, but it is easy to awaken some trash divine abilities.

Condensing single-attribute Xuan materials may not be so easy to awaken divine abilities, but once you achieve a Sacred Body, you will be invincible in the same realm.

Does Jiang Han lack divine abilities?

There are still more than twenty demon beasts in the Heavenly Beast Cauldron in his mind. As long as he hunts demon beasts, he can obtain more than twenty powerful divine abilities.

So he doesn't lack divine abilities at all!

In that case, perhaps he can walk the path of the Sacred Body?

Jiang Lang added, "You can condense one type of Xuan material first. If you can't make it in the future, you can always go back and condense multi-attribute Xuan materials. It doesn't conflict."

"Okay!"

Jiang Han had no more concerns. He slapped the table and said, "Let's go, buy Xuan materials, and go home to cultivate in seclusion after buying them!"

"No need to go out!"

Jiang Lang grinned and said, "This inn is opened by a super-large chamber of commerce. You list the items, and they can deliver them directly to your door."

"The reason I brought you to stay here is so you don't have to run around buying Xuan materials, which is safer."

"Buzz~"

Jiang Lang tossed out a huge booklet and said, "Choose what you want first and make a list. I'll go talk to the manager here. I know this manager, maybe I can get a discount?"

"Can you get a discount?"

Jiang Han was a little suspicious. This is the largest Dark City. This inn is opened by a super chamber of commerce. Jiang Lang actually knows the manager here?

Jiang Han wanted to ask, but Jiang Lang had already turned and left the guest room.
