Chapter 353: Condensing Ten Stars, Cangwu Merchant Guild!

A thought flashed through his mind.

Jiang Daoxuan did not dwell on it.

After all, the primary function of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Jing was to enhance the physical body; improving cultivation base was merely incidental.

Then, Jiang Daoxuan silently closed his eyes and carefully sensed the power within his body.

"The increase in physical strength is roughly half a percent..."

Jiang Daoxuan quickly reached a conclusion.

Though a half-percent increase seemed small, it was in fact utterly terrifying!

After all, his current physical strength might already surpass that of the Ten Thousand Phenomena True Lord!

He could now effortlessly catch a Grade-Maximum Earth Treasure with bare hands.

So how difficult would it be to achieve further advancement?

And this was only the opening of the first acupoint.

What would happen when all three hundred and sixty-five Zhou Tian acupoints were opened?

Moreover, the acupoint-stars now condensed were still mere prototypes, possessing immense growth potential!

If he continuously channeled starlight to forge his body and nurture the acupoint-stars, perhaps he could truly transform these stars into independent miniature worlds!

When that day came, the enhancement would be even more terrifying!

Immediately afterward, Jiang Daoxuan sensed that his current physical body could open more than one acupoint without reaching its limit.

Thus, he immediately unleashed the full power of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Jing!

He opened nine acupoints in one breath, then stopped.

At this point, he had opened a total of ten acupoints and condensed ten prototype stars.

His physical strength surged by roughly five percent!

His realm and cultivation base also broke through again, smoothly reaching Moon Wheel Realm Seventh Layer!

However, after condensing ten stars, he had reached the current limit of his physical body and could open no more.

Only by continuously nurturing them with starlight could he avoid the risk of bodily collapse and eventually open new acupoints!

Realizing this, Jiang Daoxuan instantly understood: to cultivate this technique, he must never rush.

Thus, he prepared to activate the Nine Revolutions Yin Yang Jue, aiming to break through to Sun Wheel Realm in the shortest possible time.

But before he could begin cultivating,

he sensed someone entering.

He halted his actions and turned his head.

The visitor was none other than the Grand Elder Jiang Hongguang!

Behind him followed an elderly man in a black robe, hunched over.

The old man's hair was streaked with white.

His face was lined with wrinkles, resembling the bark of a withered tree.

Yet though his figure and appearance betrayed age,

his deep brown eyes were anything but dim like those of an ordinary elder.

Instead, they glowed exceptionally bright, sharp as an eagle's gaze!

However, since he possessed only Bone Forging Realm Ninth Layer cultivation base,

Jiang Daoxuan paid him little mind.

But the next moment,

his eyes suddenly revealed a flicker of surprise.

For the system's prompt had appeared.

【Ding~ Golden-rank clan member detected. Host may initiate investment.】

A Destiny Clan member?

Jiang Daoxuan knew Jiang Hongguang's condition well—he himself had granted him the Lei Lingti.

So Jiang Hongguang could not possibly be a Destiny Clan member.

That left only the old man behind him.

A Destiny Clan member at this age? He had never seen one before.

Jiang Hongguang reported: "My lord, the candidate selected to establish our Cangwu Merchant Guild has been finalized—this man. After our evaluation, he is steady-minded and possesses unparalleled commercial talent; to say he surpasses all others on Cangwu Mountain is no exaggeration..."

"Oh?"

Hearing Grand Elder's words, Jiang Daoxuan's curiosity deepened.

At that moment, the black-robed elder bowed and said: "Shen Guang lineage, Executive Jiang Shan, greets the Clan Lord!"

Jiang Daoxuan nodded.

He immediately activated the Chaos Dao Eye to examine the man's information.
