Mu Hanyan drew in a breath of cold air, last ti she had thought that just one more star needed to light up for her to advance, but it turned out it wasn’t just one but two stars. If it hadn’t been for the Dragon Blood Stone, heaven knows how long it would have taken to break through.
Was that ridian clearing and marrow washing a bit too thorough? Such demanding requirents for advancent were a myriad of tis harder compared to a typical swordsman!
This ti she had the Dragon Blood Stone, but what about next ti? Without such Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Mu Hanyan couldn’t even begin to imagine how long her next promotion would be delayed. Without treasures like the Dragon Blood Stone, her whole life could well have been confined to the Swordsman realm.
While she was worrying, Mu Hanyan discovered that within her Heart ridian, starlight began to twinkle and light up once again.
This ti, Mu Hanyan looked closely, again and again, confirming there were four stars.
The first leap in strength was one star, the second ti two, the third ti four? Mu Hanyan faintly understood the correlation between the stars and the Cultivation Realm.
As the four stars twinkled and lit up, Mu Hanyan felt her strength begin to rise again. She stopped pondering the future difficulties and seized the mont to focus on cultivation.
She operated the Heavenly Heart Technique with all her might; the vast and mighty force from the Dragon Blood Stone, like thousands of horses galloping, surged into her ridians, pouring towards her Heart ridian.
Mu Hanyan had braced herself for the bone-piercing agony she thought would co again, readying herself for the pain, but she was startled by a false alarm.
As soon as that power entered her Heart ridian, it was swept into the previous nebula, rapidly condensing without causing any shock to her ridians and naturally, there wasn’t the slightest pain.
Mu Hanyan relaxed instantly, continuing to run the Heavenly Heart Technique, guiding the force of the Dragon Blood Stone into the Heart ridian.
One star shone brilliantly, followed by the second, then the third... the fourth!
"Hum!" A sound like the delightful hum of celestial music rang out in her mind, and Mu Hanyan felt an incredible lightness throughout her body, as if she was filled with boundless strength.
She had advanced again, another breakthrough, to an Eighth Rank Swordsman!
Another patch of starlight twinkled; her strength was still increasing.
How could this be possible? She had originally thought that even with a treasure like the Dragon Blood Stone, at best it would only enable her to move from the peak of the Sixth-tier Swordsman to maybe the Seventh or at most the Eighth Rank, yet the advancent hadn’t stopped at the Eighth Rank.
In her ecstatic joy, Mu Hanyan had no ti to think of any problems, rely continuously operating the Cultivation Technique, continuously gathering the power of the Dragon Blood Stone!
Eighth Rank Swordsman early stage, middle stage, late stage, peak... Ninth Rank!
The starlight was brilliant, even more dazzling than lightning in the night sky, and Mu Hanyan broke through the bottleneck directly to reach the Ninth Rank Swordsman!
All of this felt like a dream. Mu Hanyan was so stunned that her mind went blank, and she even stood rooted to the spot.
After a long while, her emotions settled down, and it was then she realized that without knowing when, she had returned to her room. The Dragon Blood Stone had shattered, leaving only a layer of pale fiery shadow around her, which also quickly got absorbed, transford into Heavenly Heart Energy through her Heart ridian, consolidating her newly promoted Ninth Rank strength.
"How did this happen? As far as I know, although the Dragon Blood Stone has great benefits for cultivation, it can at most allow a common swordsman to advance four or five ranks at best. How could it have given such a trendous increase in strength?" Coming back to her senses, the first thing Mu Hanyan did was to express her doubts to Star Illusion Thousand Machine.
