To form the First Canglan Water Dragon of four-aspect Canglan,
Qin Hao had expended a full two million jin of flowing golden sand.
He had also benefited from the special conditions within the Flowing Gold River.
Only then had he finally succeeded.
It could be said that forming the First Canglan Water Dragon of four-aspect Canglan had cost him considerable thought and resources.
Had he used other treasures...
Qin Hao would not have been confident of mastering four-aspect Canglan. In fact, never mind four-aspect Canglan—even forming the second Canglan Water Dragon would likely have been a problem.
The Canglan Pearls were different.
Each of the four Canglan Pearls contained a wisp of water-intent Great Dao origin, putting them far beyond ordinary treasures.
In truth, if not for his unusual circumstances, Qin Hao would have preferred to save these four Canglan Pearls for cultivating the third realm, eight-aspect Canglan, or the fourth realm, sixteen-aspect Canglan, in the future.
After all, starting from the fourth realm, sixteen-aspect Canglan, the treasures required for cultivation had to contain water-intent Great Dao origin.
But Qin Hao had no choice now.
At present, the best way to deal with this split doppelganger of Li Tian Sage Lord was to master the second realm, four-aspect Canglan, himself.
With the power of the second realm, four-aspect Canglan, Qin Hao was confident that once he mastered it, he could contend with Li Tian Sage Lord's split doppelganger. He might even be able to kill him.
One had to understand.
The fundamental reason Li Tian Sage Lord's split doppelganger was so powerful lay in Li Tian Sage Lord's true self. His cultivation was still essentially that of a Top-Tier Law Divine Lord; only because of his true self did he possess the combat strength of an Early-Stage Dao-Origin Divine Lord.
