Having decided on his next destination, Jiang Chengxuan continued his journey across the vast expanse of the Gao Huang Plains, opting for a slow and steady approach. He moved forward unhurriedly, exploring the plains and occasionally seeking directions towards Tian Shuang City.
During his travels, Jiang Chengxuan passed through several desolate towns, exchanging his resources with traveling merchants to prepare for his upcoming breakthrough. Although he felt somewhat confident about breaking through to the Ascension Realm, he remained cautious and meticulous in his preparations.
In the goods he encountered in those desolate towns, Jiang Chengxuan noticed familiar items—remnants from the ancient relic. These items, imbued with the same Daoist power as the Water Immortal Sect's space puppets, indicated that the relic's opportunities had significantly revitalized the grey-market trade across the Gao Huang Plains.
