Having grown accustomed to delicacies, no one can accept suddenly eating plain salted vegetables and radishes.

The same goes for opening the core. Before, you could open whatever you wanted, but now you have to make do. Jiang Yuan might as well let Gu Anlei open it.

"I just saw in the documents that your wife is a goddess..."

"Fake!"

Jiang Yuan turned over and put the document away. This Principal Zhang is so unreliable; he's filling in this kind of information.

"How could that be? It's written in black and white on the document!" Gu Anlei pointed to the document Jiang Yuan was about to put away; she wasn't so easily fooled.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan immediately made up a lie, saying, "Actually, I'm a human spy. Those are all identities I used to infiltrate the enemy! Otherwise, why do you think I came back?"

"Really?" Gu Anlei asked nervously.

"And what do you think?" Jiang Yuan said calmly.

"No wonder Officer Zhang was busy getting your identity renewed and applying to Huasheng Academy for you, so that's why!" Gu Anlei exclaimed in realization, completely unaware that this was Jiang Yuan's pretense to deceive her.

"Kid, don't ask so many questions. Help me unlock all the cores and see how lucky you are!" Jiang Yuan said.

There was a reason why he asked Gu Anlei to open the core. Based on his experience, there was a mystery to opening cores for beginners. Generally, the first few times you open cores, the things you get are very good. Then, as your strength increases and you open more cores, the cores you can open become more and more ordinary.

Therefore, for Jiang Yuan, who had opened cores worth more than six figures, opening a core was definitely a journey of bad luck, and he didn't even have the courage to try.

"Alright, since you're a patient, I, the doctor, will do you a favor and help you out!"

Gu Anlei took out all seven cores she had been allocated, and then took out a bunch of low-grade Holy Spirit Crystals.

"Take mine too!"

Jiang Yuan also took out his core. When he took out the core, he also took a special look at the Supreme Core. He still needed to borrow the Lucky Set from Liu Zhaodi to open it. After all, this was one of the few ways he could turn the tide, and he could not be careless.

Gu Anlei was working on the core at the table to the side, while Jiang Yuan was focused on refining the spirit core.

Now his divine power cultivation has shifted to godhood cultivation. As long as the godhood absorbs enough energy, his realm will automatically improve. This also avoids the drawback that the Heaven-Mending Soul cannot appear as a true soul.

However, it is undoubtedly difficult to follow the path of divine cultivation. After obtaining Ragnarok, he discovered that the energy required for this kind of divine cultivation was a hundred times greater than that required for ordinary cultivation.

"I obtained 173 low-grade spirit cores today, which should be enough to raise my divine power to the second stage of the Void Spirit Realm!"

Jiang Yuan took out a portion of top-grade Holy Spirit Crystals to assist the absorption of the Spirit Core. The most important way to improve in Ragnarok is to absorb the energy of divine blood, followed by the Spirit Core. As for the Holy Spirit Crystals and other energy stones, they are only for auxiliary purposes.

One hundred and seventy-three low-grade spirit cores are not a lot. In the powerful refining process of Ragnarok, it's almost one core per second, so one hundred and seventy-three cores would only take a little over three minutes.

Sizzle!

The divine energy briefly surged, and then the number of divine runes in Jiang Yuan's body began to increase. In just a few seconds, one divine rune became four, transforming him from a Void Spirit Realm cultivator who had not yet reached the first stage into a second-stage powerhouse.

Just as he was about to break through, another energy fluctuation suddenly came. He opened his eyes and looked at Gu Anlei. His experience told him that a treasure had appeared in the core. Only treasures with a probability of more than one in ten thousand would produce such a fluctuation.

We'll have to look into the specifics carefully.

"Jiang Yuan, look! I've activated ten skills!"

When the ten skills reached Jiang Yuan's ears, his expectations were dashed. He looked up and said, "I thought it was some kind of treasure. Your good luck actually landed on the tenfold drop rate!"

A tenfold increase in drop rate is indeed rare, but if it's based on randomly selecting items, then it becomes somewhat of a drawback.

"Strange, why are your cores yielding good stuff while mine isn't showing any improvement at all!"

Gu Anlei wasn't very happy about getting a tenfold drop rate, because the core belonged to Jiang Yuan, and she had only opened it on his behalf.

Jiang Yuan stopped cultivating and walked to the place where Gu Anlei had piled up treasures. He scanned the treasures in front of him with eyes that, while not sharp, clearly showed a high level of experience.

"Kid, that girl has the core with the ability to see through things. Activate it yourself!"

Suddenly, a voice came from the depths of his being, and Jiang Yuan subconsciously snatched the low-grade spirit-level mithril core from Gu Anlei's hand.

"Hmm?" Gu Anlei looked up in confusion.

"Well, you look pretty tired, let me drive!" Jiang Yuan said, delivering a practiced lie.

"I'm not tired at all, I'm having a lot of fun!" Gu Anlei rarely has such an opportunity to fully unleash her potential, so she naturally didn't want to miss it.

"Whose core is this?"

Jiang Yuan asked nervously. Although he had 70% of the core, he really couldn't say for sure whose it was.

"This should be mine!" Gu Anlei said, lacking confidence.

Jiang Yuan pursed his lips, then took out ten top-grade Holy Spirit Crystals and placed them in Gu Anlei's palm. "And now?"

Gu Anlei stared blankly at the top-grade Holy Spirit Crystal in her hand, speechless to herself, "This is a top-grade Holy Spirit Crystal! Ten of them are worth three months of my salary!"

"And now?" Jiang Yuan thought for a moment and took out ten more coins. "I'm not the kind of person who steals other people's things."

"Forehead!"

Gu Anlei put away the top-grade Holy Spirit Crystal, then said playfully, "I remembered wrong, this core should be yours!"

As she spoke, Gu Anlei respectfully placed the core in Jiang Yuan's hand.

Jiang Yuan didn't open it in front of Gu Anlei. Instead, he put the core into his personal space and then went to the side to receive the subtle signals.
