Information about the Divine Martial Realm is considered a secret to outsiders, but it's nothing to the Sixth Princess.

Besides, Dou Zhan's promotion this time was largely due to her help; the idea of ​​"listening for free" or "listening for free" is irrelevant.

But after hearing the second half of the sentence, he swallowed back his words of refusal.

Without mentioning anything about the dark or the light, they went straight to introducing the Divine Martial Realm.

The third grade is called "momentum," which is the embryonic form of one's own path. When combined with suitable cultivation methods, it can be manifested.

However, this word does not represent one's own power, or at least not most of it; rather, it refers to borrowing power, borrowing the power of heaven and earth.

The power of heaven and earth is not so easy to borrow. The reason why the physical body and true qi must be tempered to the peak of the fourth grade is actually to prepare for receiving this power.

In addition, compatibility with the training methods is also extremely important.

Otherwise, one's spirit would not be able to withstand the power of heaven and earth, and may be crushed in an instant.

That's why it's said that when one breaks through to the Divine Martial Realm, one witnesses great terror; it refers to the feeling one experiences when facing the overwhelming power of heaven and earth.

If I had to describe it, it would be the edge of a giant tornado, the crest of a tsunami, the deep seabed, the abyss where the sun never rises...

Depending on one's own path and mindset, what one faces will vary, but in any case, they are all terrifying.

Successfully breaking through to the third rank grants the ability to leverage external forces, and gradually integrating these forces into one's own path of cultivation becomes the next step in the cultivation journey.

This is why the Divine Martial Realm has such overwhelming power over the Qi Martial Realm.

The second grade is called "domain," which pursues the integration of one's own Dao with the power of heaven and earth.

We are intertwined, living in harmony.

If the manifestation of the Dao does not provoke a strong oppressive force from the heavens and earth, then this realm is considered complete.

Within its own domain, it offers far greater controllability than the third-ranked product, and is not as "rigid."

When a third-rank official faces a second-rank official, their "power" will be weakened by their "domain".

This is understandable; what is borrowed is still borrowed, and it is certainly not as good as what you have yourself.

The explanation of the two realms is fairly easy to understand.

It sounds simple but is difficult to do, and its mysteries can only be truly experienced when one arrives there.

As for the First Grade Realm, he knew very little about it. To put it simply, it was just four words: almost the Dao.

“Wait a minute,” Qin Zhaoyue interrupted, “Shouldn’t a first-rank cultivator have formed their own Dao? How can it be almost a Dao?”

Having watched many fantasy dramas and read numerous novels in her previous life, the settings of the various realms of the Divine Martial Realm were not difficult for her to accept, and she had a good level of acceptance.

Dou Zhan bluntly stated, "That's not very clear. The distance is too great, and there's very little information about this."

Qin Zhaoyue nodded. It was another case of knowledge monopoly.

The more advanced and sophisticated the knowledge and experience, the more tightly it is blocked.

Putting aside everything else, even just what Dou Zhan just mentioned, very few people outside actually know about it.

Those who master it will never easily pass it on; it's estimated that it will only be passed down to one's own son or a close disciple.

Qin Zhaoyue didn't dwell on this point; she just needed to know the general distinctions and abilities of the three realms of Divine Martial Arts.

As Dou Zhan said, one can only truly understand the inner workings of a place by reaching that level; language cannot adequately express even a fraction of it.

"How's the scenery? Go up and see for yourself." That makes perfect sense, and Qin Zhaoyue was very confident in this regard.

"Then tell me, how many people of the third, second, and first ranks are there in the imperial court and the martial arts world?"

Dou Zhan pondered for a moment before speaking.

The third-rank realm is undoubtedly the most common, and it can be found in the three major guards of the palace: Xuanji Guard, Qingluan Guard, and Qilin Guard.

The thousand households are mostly at the third rank, numbering around ten.

In addition, there were also some military generals and families with military merit.

The second rank is truly extremely rare.

The commanders of the Xuanji Guard, the armory guards, and the generals stationed in the northern and southern borders are all at the second rank.

He is also the leader of the three major sects of Buddhism, Taoism, and Tianyan in the martial arts world.

Of course, His Majesty also has secret guards and assassins around him, but no one knows about this.

As for the First Rank Realm... according to Dou Zhan, the imperial court should have one, but it's unknown who it is or where it is.

Qin Zhaoyue understood; this was essentially a strategic weapon.

We must have it, but we don't know who has it or where it is. At the very least, we need to convince others that our family has it.

She breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, the rarity of those at the Divine Martial Realm was even greater than she had imagined.

Leaving aside the first rank, once you advance to the second rank, as long as you don't rebel, you're basically invincible.

Ha, she plans to work hard in secret until she reaches the second rank and then amaze everyone.

A sorcerer assassination?

I'll kill you, you son of a bitch!

Threatening to attend court?

Bah, I can't get up.

Exiled to the frontier?

Whatever, we second-rank officials can't hold our own anywhere.

Wearing a veil all the time?

Either you take it off yourself, or I'll rip it off for you!

Hehehe... Good days are just around the corner.

Qin Zhaoyue was in a great mood, secretly pleased with herself. Even the sword seemed more pleasing to the eye. With a wave of her hand, she...

"Alright, I'm a man of my word, I'll pass on my secrets to picking up girls to you right now."

Is there a secret to this? Dou Zhan remained expressionless, but pricked up his little ears.

Originally, he hid his thoughts very well and was very restrained even when he was in the Dark Prison all day.

But it was exposed during the promotion, and the suppressed emotions were released.

Dou Zhan could sense that he seemed to be somewhat different.

He was borrowing the power of heaven and earth, but it also meant going with the flow. He thought... to go with the flow.

Seeing his seemingly indifferent expression, Qin Zhaoyue sneered inwardly.

"To put it simply: persistence. Have you ever heard the saying, 'A good woman fears a man's persistence'?"
