He already had a batch of resources to aid his cultivation of the Inner Refining of the Five Viscera. However, the Merak Sacred Land had better complementary methods, and using them in combination yielded far greater effects.
He hadn't had the opportunity to acquire them before, but now that the Merak Saintess had given the word, it meant he could obtain these cultivation resources.
In fact, his original plan was that if he couldn't get the resources from the Merak Saintess soon, he would use Yang Chan's channels to trade for some cultivation resources to use in combination.
Their relationship was very close, so he was confident Yang Chan wouldn't refuse him. He would naturally get his wish, but his own supply of cultivation resources would diminish as a result.
But compared to the benefit of using the resources optimally, he was naturally willing to make that trade.
