Wu Shattered Star River

Coming was free via teleportation, but returning costs ten thousand divine crystals per person. Yanluo City is too exploitative.

The divine crystals everyone had didn't add up, so they turned back and sold some treasures to barely scrape together four hundred thousand.

Staying in the city costs fifty thousand a day for the four of them, which amounts to one million for five days. Calculating it, it's more cost-effective to return to Beishang City.

After returning, they found an inn and paid three months' rent in one go, and the four of them immediately went into seclusion.

Xuan Yuanqing was thinking of breaking through to the Earth Immortal Realm, while Fang Mengyao and Wu Yao'er were thinking of comprehending the Three Sovereigns' inheritance to improve their combat power and construct their divine altars.

Jiang Han went into seclusion for four days, comprehending the Fuxi Sovereign's inheritance. On the fifth day, he bid farewell to everyone and returned to Yanluo City.

Returning to Yanluo City, he went straight to Ruyi Pavilion and found Manager Zhang, who handed him a cyan robe.

Jiang Han took the robe and found that the mental imprint was still there. He poured Xuan Power into it, and the robe directly disappeared into his body.

"It's really repaired!"

The Netherworld Holy Garment flashed with cyan light, and Jiang Han's body disappeared from the spot.

He sensed it and found that the Netherworld Holy Garment had indeed been enhanced. There seemed to be a thin halo that completely isolated his aura.

Of course, whether a Divine Descent expert could sense him still needed to be tested.

Jiang Han didn't know any Divine Descent experts here. Even if Ruyi Pavilion found one, it would be useless; they would definitely say they couldn't sense him.

"Rest assured!"

Bearded Manager Zhang said with a smile, "Our Ruyi Pavilion values its reputation the most. The artifact refiner who repaired your spiritual artifact is a master craftsman from our sect. An eighth-level Peeping Dao cultivator definitely won't be able to sense it."

Jiang Han's figure reappeared, and he asked, "Has your headquarters sent someone to investigate? If it's confirmed that Sun Feifei cheated me, will he be punished?"

"Of course!"

Manager Zhang said without hesitation, "At the very least, he'll be expelled from the pavilion. If the situation is serious, he may be severely punished. Come back in five days, and we'll definitely give you an explanation."

Jiang Han nodded in satisfaction and left. He didn't linger in the city but went straight out.

Yanluo Mountain erupted five days ago, so it wouldn't erupt today. Jiang Han came out not to go up the mountain but to find a place to spend the night.

He definitely couldn't stay in the city; fifty thousand a night was too ruthless. He decided to find a place outside the city to spend the night first.

He circled around the city and discovered something very interesting—there were many tents along the city walls, inhabited by many martial artists.

"Is it safer to be close to the city walls?"

Jiang Han blinked and understood after thinking about it.

Although being close to the city walls might still result in attacks, at least there wouldn't be large-scale massacres.

There were troops on the city walls and Marquis Tianhe in the city. If someone were to massacre martial artists on a large scale outside the city, the troops would definitely not sit idly by.

At least…

Under the city walls, other races wouldn't come here to attack!

"Find a place, and I'll stay there too!"

After circling around nearby, Jiang Han followed suit, took out a tent, and found an area to set it up.

His approach startled some people nearby. Many people poked their heads out of their tents, but when they saw that Jiang Han was just a Void Refinement Realm cultivator, they didn't pay much attention.

"Cultivate, and go up the mountain tomorrow!"

Jiang Han set up two simple warning divine arrays outside the tent and then sat down inside to cultivate, continuing to comprehend the Fuxi Sovereign's inheritance.

There were too many fragments of the Space-Time Laws inside the Fuxi Sovereign's inheritance light sphere. It was estimated that it would take at least a year to fully comprehend them.

The Law fragments were chaotic and disordered. Whether one could comprehend some Space-Time mysteries through the Law fragments and then derive some Space-Time divine abilities depended on luck and individual comprehension.

It was very quiet and safe outside the city, at least during the day.

But things happened at night. In the middle of the night, explosions and noises came from not far away. Jiang Han opened his eyes immediately and walked out of the tent with his saber.

The martial artists in the nearby tents were alarmed and all came out with guarded faces. Some people were whispering in the distance.

After taking a few glances, Jiang Han relaxed.

Listening to the people nearby, it seemed that a group of martial artists were chasing down an Earth Immortal.

This Earth Immortal was very famous in Yanluo City, nicknamed Heavenly Spirit Child.

This person possessed very strong stealth divine abilities and was also proficient in illusion techniques and many strange Dao techniques. He could approach unnoticed and make martial artists hallucinate. By the time they woke up, the treasures on their bodies might have been stolen silently.

Just now, Heavenly Spirit Child stole a lot of things, and it seemed he had lustful intentions and groped a female Earth Immortal a few times. This female Earth Immortal woke up early because of this, which led to his discovery and aroused public anger, so everyone chased after him.

The pursuers had already gone far away. Jiang Han didn't feel like joining in the fun, but he was secretly vigilant.

He had to be more careful when cultivating in the future, lest he fell for Heavenly Spirit Child's tricks and had the treasures on his body stolen without him knowing.

Nothing else happened in the second half of the night. As soon as it dawned, the martial artists from countless tents around came out and ran towards Yanluo Mountain.

It seemed that they all knew that today was the day when Heavenly Dust Crystals erupted, and they were all going up the mountain to snatch them.

Jiang Han followed the crowd up the mountain. When he passed through the forest, he found many martial artists lurking and could also see some corpses. Judging from the wounds on the corpses, they should have died last night…

"Someone is targeting me!"

Just as he was about to pass through the forest, Jiang Han noticed that a team was approaching him. There were eight people, including four Earth Immortals.

Jiang Han didn't want to have meaningless conflicts. Before the group could approach, the Netherworld Holy Garment flashed, and he hid in the vicinity.

The team quickly came over. They looked around in surprise and didn't find Jiang Han's踪迹 (zōngjì, traces), and everyone's face showed surprise.

"This kid is proficient in stealth techniques. Could he be Heavenly Spirit Child?"

"It shouldn't be. He's only at the sixth level of Void Refinement Realm, while Heavenly Spirit Child is at the seventh level of Void Refinement Realm!"

"Look around, he definitely hasn't gone far. The robe outside this kid's body is a spiritual artifact. He probably has a lot of good things on him…"

The eight people whispered a few words and gradually walked away.

Jiang Han frowned. This ghostly place was too chaotic. Seeing him alone, they wanted to rob him.

If he didn't want to make a big fuss, none of these eight people would have lived.

Jiang Han directly passed through the forest in stealth and entered Yanluo Mountain.

There was a lot of white mist in the mountain. Jiang Han didn't use stealth anymore and ran upwards all the way. He would only use stealth to escape when he felt someone approaching.

He kept walking upwards and kept encountering people.

There should be more human martial artists here. He hadn't encountered other races along the way. After climbing more than three thousand feet, Jiang Han found a large rock and hid under it, waiting for the Heavenly Dust Crystals to erupt.

People passed by from time to time. As long as he sensed someone, Jiang Han would use stealth, and only reveal himself after the person left.

He waited like this for half a day!

The ground finally vibrated. Jiang Han's eyes lit up, and his body quickly ran towards the vicinity, looking for that kind of large stone cave.

Not many erupt from small stone caves, Jiang Han didn't like them.

He ran quickly and soon found a very large stone cave. There were more than six hundred people gathered nearby, many of whom were Earth Immortals, and there were not a few at the peak of Earth Immortal.

"Boom boom boom!"

After waiting for a moment, the ground nearby trembled violently, and then streams of colorful light erupted from the stone cave, and the surrounding world brightened up a bit in an instant.

"Do it!"

At the moment of the eruption, Jiang Han's body had already risen into the air. He was in a stealth state, so no one locked onto him.

Countless Earth Immortals nearby followed and flew out, grabbing the streams of light in the sky to collect Heavenly Dust Crystals.

"Shoo shoo shoo~"

A hundred black thunderballs appeared outside Jiang Han's body. The thunderballs swarmed in all directions, instantly hitting more than twenty Earth Immortals nearby, and the black thunderballs exploded.

Taking advantage of the fact that the nearby Earth Immortals were blasted back, Jiang Han released a large palm and quickly grabbed more than two hundred streams of light nearby…
