Wu Shattered Star River

“Old Gu, wait a moment!”

Gu Qingtian and Jiang Han had just left the City Lord's mansion backyard when he called out to Gu Qingtian.

The latter stopped and cupped his hands, saying, “Young City Lord, what are your instructions?”

Jiang Han asked with a puzzled expression, “Isn’t it normal for the demon race's royalty to participate in the war? I've encountered it before, so why does Master seem to value it so much this time?”

“It's different!”

Gu Qingtian explained, “The demon race has thirteen royal clans, and these thirteen clans are further divided internally. Among them, three clans are the Ancient Demon Clans, and the remaining ten are ordinary royal clans.”

“What I mentioned just now are the Ancient Demon Clans, namely the Witch Demon Clan, the Nether Demon Clan, and the Saint Demon Clan.”

“Ancient Demon Clans?”

Jiang Han understood and asked, “Are these three clans very strong? Much stronger than the ordinary demon royal clans?”

“Yes!”

Gu Qingtian nodded and said, “These three clans are the absolute rulers of the demon race. Their clansmen are incredibly powerful in battle. Basically, any one of them who appears can sweep through opponents of the same rank.”

“Recently, there have been two island-seizing battles. The three clans dispatched five Heaven Realm demons, who swept the entire field. None of the Void Breaking Realm participants returned; they all died in battle!”

“Hmm?”

Jiang Han's eyes turned cold as he asked in a deep voice, “Can they kill our Void Breaking Realm experts across realms?”

“Yes!”

Gu Qingtian said with a grave expression, “Among them are one or two genius prodigies from the three clans, who, in cooperation with the demon race's Void Breaking Realm experts, killed our Void Breaking Realm experts.”

Jiang Han pondered for a moment and asked, “Are there any image crystals left? I want to take a look!”

“There aren't any left!”

Gu Qingtian shook his head and said, “There was only one copy, and the chief steward took it to the Divine Ruins Palace.”

A murderous intent flashed in Jiang Han's eyes as he asked, “How about I go to battle? And kill a batch of people from the Ancient Demon Clans?”

“No need for now!”

Gu Qingtian shook his head and said, “If the Young City Lord makes a move, I'm afraid it will break the balance and tacit understanding. Let's arrange for a batch of our top geniuses to go up first. If the Young City Lord needs to go into battle, I will notify you.”

“Alright then!”

Jiang Han nodded. Then, he remembered something and leaned in close to Gu Qingtian's ear, saying in a low voice, “Old Gu, tell me honestly, do you have something going on with my Aunt Meng…?”

A trace of embarrassment appeared on Gu Qingtian's face, and he touched his nose, saying, “Young City Lord, did Yun Meng tell you?”

“Damn!”

Jiang Han asked casually, but he didn't expect it to be true. He stared at Gu Qingtian and said, “Old Gu, you're already so old, isn't it inappropriate for an old bull to eat young grass?”

“I'm not old…”

Gu Qingtian said with a mournful face, “Young City Lord, I'm only in my fifties, precisely the prime of my life. Once I break through to Earth Immortal, I can easily live for over two hundred years. I'm still in my prime.”

“Shameless!”

Jiang Han curled his lip and waved his hand, saying, “Alright, just don't deceive my Aunt Meng's feelings, or else don't blame me for being impolite.”

“How dare I, how dare I!”

Gu Qingtian said with a sincere expression, “I'm truly sincere. I've been wholeheartedly devoted to martial arts my entire life, and I thought I would grow old alone. I never expected to meet Yun Meng. I also have to thank the Young City Lord for creating this opportunity for me.”

“Alright, then hold the wedding banquet sometime.” Jiang Han waved his hand and said, “When you hold the wedding banquet, I'll invite Master to help you officiate the wedding.”

“That would be wonderful!”

Gu Qingtian was overjoyed, then cupped his hands and said, “Young City Lord, you're busy, I'll go do my work first.”

Jiang Han returned to the small courtyard, and everyone surrounded him to congratulate him. The news of Jiang Han comprehending Ghost Kill had spread throughout the city, and Jiang Lang and the others had naturally received the news.

Jiang Han was in a good mood, and he had a big meal with everyone. At the same time, he told everyone not to participate in the island-seizing battles recently. He rested for a day and continued to return to Thunder Mountain to cultivate in seclusion.

Lan Lin gave him some new ideas, and he decided to take some time to comprehend some of the Thunder Great Dao Laws.

The more he comprehended this, the faster he could absorb the power of the Great Dao, and the faster he could construct the altar.

For the next three months, Jiang Han stayed in Thunder Mountain and didn't come out. When lightning struck, he used the lightning to temper his body.

When there was no lightning, he used the Thunder Light Body Tempering Divine Power to temper his body. In three months, he only slept for one day, and he spent the rest of the time comprehending the Thunder Great Dao Laws.

Before, he had comprehended the Thunder Laws for many years and comprehended some Thunder Laws, such as thunder possessing the attributes of destruction and rebirth. He had also used thunder to reshape his body many times.

These past few months, he had been deducing the destructive and regenerative properties of thunder. He wanted to dig deeper and understand why thunder could both destroy and regenerate.

Destruction and rebirth were originally two opposite attributes, but they appeared in thunder. This was a very strange thing.

In three months, Jiang Han deduced millions of times. Although he gained some insights, he didn't fully comprehend this thing.

He wasn't in a hurry. If the Great Dao Laws could be easily comprehended, then this world would be full of Earth Immortals walking everywhere.

“Rest for a while!”

Jiang Han was a little tired. The sky was clear today, so he slowly walked down the mountain, preparing to go to the stone house to get a good night's sleep.

In the stone house, He Ming had arranged for someone to set up a bed and some daily necessities so that Jiang Han could rest well.

Walking outside the stone house, Jiang Han suddenly froze!

He saw a touch of green in a stone crevice next to the stone house.

He looked at it for a while, then slowly walked towards the stone peak. Through the stone peak, he saw a small sapling inside.

“Amazing!”

A look of surprise appeared in Jiang Han's eyes. This small mountain was arranged with a lightning-attracting array, and the small mountain became Thunder Mountain.

Lightning was attracted down, and although it was basically absorbed by him, there was still a lot of lightning arc escaping.

Therefore, there used to be big trees and small grass on the small mountain. After he cultivated for a period of time, the entire mountain became a bare stone mountain, and all the trees and flowers died.

But he didn't expect that a small sapling could grow out of the stone crevice?

You must know that last night was still thunder and lightning, and lightning struck all night. I don't know how many lightning arcs escaped into the mountain, but this small sapling was able to grow out alive?

Looking at the lush green leaves, Jiang Han was thoughtful. He looked at it for a while, and his eyes became dazed: “Destruction, rebirth! Rebirth is equal to new life, and destruction is also equal to new life? Destruction and rebirth are a cycle? Only after destruction can there be new life…”

Jiang Han murmured softly. After a moment, he sat down cross-legged and entered a meditative state right here.

This meditation lasted for more than a month!

For half of this month, lightning struck down, but Jiang Han was no longer in the central area of the lightning-attracting array, so a lot of lightning struck into the mountain, which was a waste.

Jiang Han didn't care at all. He seemed to have forgotten everything and was immersed in his own insights.

Four more days passed!

Jiang Han finally opened his eyes, his eyes shining brightly, with a faint flash of lightning.

A look of joy appeared on his face, and he exhaled a long breath, sighing: “The Thunder Laws have finally made some progress, but I don't know if the progress is significant?”

After comprehending the Laws, if you want to turn the Laws into Dao techniques, divine arts, and killing moves, you need to further evolve them.

Jiang Han doesn't have time to evolve them now, so naturally he doesn't know how much progress he has made in the Laws.

“That's not right!”

Jiang Han woke up and slapped his head, saying: “If you want to know if the progress is significant, just look at the speed of absorbing the Thunder Great Dao power, right?”

Jiang Han quickly entered a meditative state again and began to absorb the power of the Great Dao at full speed.

This absorption startled him. He felt that the power of the Thunder Great Dao was surging towards him, and the speed felt three times faster than before.

“This…”

Jiang Han's body and mind were shaken, and then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.

The speed of absorbing the power of the Great Dao has increased so much, then the speed of constructing his altar will be greatly increased.

According to the estimated speed of absorption, he has a great hope of constructing a nine-story altar within five years and reaching the peak of the Void Breaking Realm. Then, if he can find a way to open the Earth Immortal Secret Treasure, he can break through to the Earth Immortal Realm.
