Wu Shattered Star River

“Chi Chi~”

Above, the lightning raged once more, with thousands of bolts raining down violently.

Once the lightning subsided, the nearby warriors of various races immediately soared upwards, beginning to collect lightning-attributed mystic materials.

“Doesn't this woman want any mystic materials?”

Jiang Han's gaze turned towards the woman sitting cross-legged halfway up the mountain, a look of slight bewilderment on his face.

The woman hadn't moved from beginning to end, not even when the lightning was at its most violent. After the lightning disappeared, she didn't go to collect mystic materials either, simply sitting there quietly.

“This woman is so beautiful!”

Because the lightning had disappeared, the lightning covering the woman's body was also gone, allowing Jiang Han to clearly see her face.

She was a young girl, not very old, wearing a snow-white linen robe, barefoot, her hair simply tied behind her head.

Apart from a spatial ring on her finger and a black gourd hanging at her waist, she wore no other adornments or accessories. She also didn't wear any rouge or powder, appearing as pure as a snow lotus on a mountain.

The girl had delicate features, her face perfectly proportioned, and her temperament was especially ethereal and otherworldly, like a goddess who didn't partake in mortal affairs, somewhat out of place in this world.

Beside the girl was a cyan longsword stuck into the ground. The blade was longer than ordinary swords, and it was embedded in the mountainside, clearly exceptionally sharp, a treasured sword.

“This linen-clad girl was covered in lightning, yet her hair and eyebrows weren't burned.”

Jiang Han also noticed that even though the girl was covered by such powerful lightning, her clothes weren't burned, which could be explained by the clothes being a treasure.

Her skin wasn't charred either, which could be explained by her strong physical body, but her hair and eyebrows were so fragile, yet they didn't suffer any damage at all, which was difficult to explain.

“So many lightning-attributed mystic materials!”

Jiang Han noticed that the mountainside above and below the linen-clad girl were glowing in many places, which should all be lightning-attributed mystic materials. He secretly salivated, but didn't dare to act rashly.

After waiting for a few breaths, the lightning fell again, and all the warriors flew down.

This Divine Lightning Mountain was quite harmonious; so many teams didn't start fighting, with various races coexisting peacefully, each occupying a piece of territory and collecting lightning-attributed mystic materials.

Jiang Han had a bit of a headache, his gaze frequently turning towards the beautiful linen-clad girl halfway up the mountain, wondering if she would attack him if he went to collect mystic materials.

So many teams were nearby, yet no warrior dared to come here. So many mystic materials were right there in front of them, but no one dared to touch them.

Even a fool would know that this linen-clad girl was not to be trifled with. Jiang Han was feeling conflicted.

And one more thing!

There were more than a dozen corpses on the mountainside below the linen-clad girl, including those of the demon, barbarian, and demonkin races, but no human corpses were seen.

Although these corpses were charred black by the lightning, turned into lumps of burnt meat, Jiang Han could see traces of being pierced by a longsword on some of them.

These corpses were likely all killed by this woman! Jiang Han was afraid that if he went up there, he would be instantly stabbed to death by the woman…

After waiting for another two incense sticks' worth of time, the lightning on the mountaintop raged, and the surrounding warriors all stood up, preparing to rush up again to collect mystic materials.

Jiang Han couldn't resist anymore!

He crawled out from behind the rock and quickly rushed towards the open space below the beautiful linen-clad girl.

Swish, swish, swish!

Countless gazes swept towards Jiang Han, from the demon, demonkin, and barbarian races, as well as two human teams. When they saw Jiang Han rushing towards the open space, many warriors were initially slightly stunned, then revealed looks of mockery.

Jiang Han arrived at the open space below, his whole body tense, his gaze fixed on the linen-clad girl halfway up the mountain. He didn't speak, but one hand quietly took out a heaven-grade defensive divine talisman.

He had traveled thousands of miles to Divine Lightning Mountain, not wanting to return empty-handed. He wanted to give it a try. If he could obtain some lightning-attributed mystic materials, he could quickly break through to the ninth level of the Mountain Sea Realm.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~”

The lightning storm above stopped, and the surrounding warriors flew towards the mountain. Jiang Han moved.

His figure leaped upwards, one hand quickly sweeping over the lightning-attributed mystic materials, immediately storing the collected materials into the black gourd.

The beautiful linen-clad girl above opened her eyes at this moment. She glanced at Jiang Han indifferently, stretched out a hand, and suddenly waved it towards Jiang Han.

“Chi Chi~”

The woman's hand seemed to possess a strange divine power. At the moment she waved her hand, the lightning above was actually drawn, and terrifying arcs of lightning howled down, sweeping wildly towards Jiang Han.

“Heh heh!”

The surrounding warriors of various races all laughed mockingly, their gazes turned towards Jiang Han, wanting to see how Jiang Han would be abused.

There were so many mystic materials here, it wasn't that they weren't envious, it's just that they didn't dare to snatch them.

Because…

All the alien races who came to snatch the mystic materials died, instantly killed by the linen-clad girl. Two teams of human warriors also wanted to snatch them, but they were easily beaten into serious injuries, without exception.

“Hiss, hiss…”

Seeing a dozen arcs of lightning howling down, Jiang Han's eyes narrowed, and his first thought was to use the Wind Evasion Technique to escape.

At this moment, the beautiful linen-clad girl above waved her other hand, and the space in front of her vibrated violently, turning into ripples that swept over.

The space around Jiang Han suddenly fluctuated violently. Jiang Han felt like he had become a small boat in a raging sea, his body completely out of control.

He could only watch helplessly as more than a dozen arcs of lightning poured down, flying towards him.

“Buzz~”

At the instant the arcs of lightning struck Jiang Han, the beautiful linen-clad girl waved one hand again, and the longsword stuck in the black rock suddenly flew up, turning into a flying sword that shot towards Jiang Han.

“Chi Chi!”

Jiang Han was struck by more than a dozen arcs of lightning, his whole body emitting black smoke, and the mask on his face naturally fell off, his body trembling violently.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Beast Cauldron in his body was automatically activated, and all the lightning was absorbed into it.

If it were someone else, being attacked by more than a dozen arcs of lightning, they would either be dead or seriously injured at this moment, and their bodies would probably be completely out of control.

Because Jiang Han had the Heavenly Beast Cauldron, the lightning's influence on him was instantly eliminated.

Seeing the spatial fluctuations weakening, and seeing the longsword flying through the air, Jiang Han didn't hesitate at all, and crushed the divine talisman in his hand.

“Buzz~”

A halo appeared, covering Jiang Han. Just as the halo solidified, the longsword shot over, heavily striking the halo.

“Eh?”

The beautiful linen-clad girl above revealed a trace of astonishment. She looked down at Jiang Han condescendingly, and when she saw that there were no arcs of lightning around his body, her look of astonishment deepened.

The woman waved her hand, and the longsword flew back, re-entering the black stone.

The woman glanced at Jiang Han, and actually spoke, her voice light and soft: “The mystic materials below are yours.”

Jiang Han was preparing to use the Wind Evasion Technique to flee far away when he heard the woman's words and was instantly stunned.

He turned his gaze towards the linen-clad girl, and when he saw that she had closed her eyes, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

This linen-clad girl was outrageously strong. Just now, the flying sword's strike, the halo formed by his use of the heaven-grade defensive divine talisman, actually had huge cracks appear on it. It was likely that another strike would cause the halo to explode.

Why did the linen-clad girl not continue to attack him? And even said that the mystic materials below were for him?

Jiang Han couldn't figure it out, but since this linen-clad girl was so powerful, since she had stopped attacking, as long as he didn't mess around, she probably wouldn't continue to attack.

She said that the mystic materials below were his, and she would definitely keep her word. Jiang Han's strength was probably not worth mentioning in her eyes, and she probably wouldn't bother lying to or deceiving Jiang Han.

After a pause, Jiang Han put the mask into the black gourd, cupped his fist towards the linen-clad girl, and quickly began to collect the mystic materials.

“This…”

The surrounding warriors of various races revealed looks of surprise, their gazes all turning towards the linen-clad girl.

They were somewhat puzzled as to why this girl didn't attack Jiang Han anymore? And was even so generous as to give Jiang Han such a large area of mystic materials?

Although this linen-clad girl was extremely beautiful, in the eyes of the warriors of various races, she was a great demon who killed without blinking an eye. Any warrior who dared to enter her territory would be assassinated by her using lightning and her longsword.

Jiang Han had now become the only exception. Could it be that this linen-clad girl had taken a fancy to Jiang Han?
