"Master...Ah!"

As soon as she knelt down, Zhong Ningxue's whole body trembled.

She only felt that endless spiritual energy was gushing out from the ground and pouring into her body.

It turned out that there was a spirit gathering formation beneath her body, which could only be triggered by kneeling sincerely.

"Thank you...Master..."

Zhong Ningxue knelt silently, feeling that her wounded body was repairing itself and her declining cultivation level was recovering.

The first level of reincarnation... the third level... the seventh level, and it didn't stop until it reached the peak of the reincarnation realm.

This was the foundation she had accumulated before, which had been restored due to the healing of her injuries, but it was still far from her peak semi-saint cultivation.

This was a huge hurdle, and even if she tried her best, she could only barely take one step over it.

Before she knew it, she had been kneeling for several hours, from the scorching sun to dusk, and from dusk to late night, and she had not moved an inch.

The young man on the bed seemed to have turned into a sculpture, lying on his side, lost in eternity.

Time flows as usual, the night fades away, the stars become sparse under the moon, and the first ray of sunlight falls down, tearing apart the chaotic night.

Just when Zhong Ningxue was about to fall asleep, she heard the sound of a bell coming from outside the hall.

The sound was solemn and majestic; it was the morning training bell of the Hehuan Sect, and disciples from all sides were not allowed to miss it lightly.

"Master... I am leaving now."

Zhong Ningxue stood up slowly and was about to leave backwards.

“Crack!”

A crisp sound was suddenly heard. Although it was not loud, it was particularly loud in this silent space. It turned out that she had bumped into the door, and she couldn't help but tremble in her heart.

"Is it Zhong Ningxue?"

Zhou Tong's voice came from behind. Zhong Ningxue turned around again and saw that the young man was already sitting upright. He was as strong as a green pine and as powerful as a dragon or a tiger. There seemed to be a vast universe in his eyes. He was independent in the midst of everything!

"Master... please... please accept me as your disciple."

Zhong Ningxue didn't hesitate at all. She took two steps at a time and knelt down there again.

"Why are you so arrogant at first and respectful later?"

Zhou Tong asked with a smile.

Zhong Ningxue bowed again: "I know I was wrong. Please forgive me for being young and ignorant and not knowing how big the Milky Way is. Please accept me as your disciple!"

Zhou Tong closed his eyes, and the laws of the gods in his body began to turn, absorbing the power of incomparable purity of faith, allowing his cultivation to rise to another level!

The Seventh Level of Reincarnation!

"It seems that what the master said is right." He thought to himself.

"Forget it! Since you have already passed two levels and the sect master has guaranteed you, I will accept you as my disciple and take over this cause and effect!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhong Ningxue raised her head abruptly, her eyes bright as if filled with endless joy.

"I have a Master now, and I have relatives again!" she said softly.

She was a saint admired by all. But in one day, all her relatives were killed and she was hunted down by her own people, leaving her in a desperate situation.

Now that she had successfully become someone's apprentice, she had someone to rely on and was no longer alone.

Before she knew it, Zhong Ningxue, who no longer had any fear in her heart, actually started crying.

"Okay, don't cry!"

Zhou Tong smiled and comforted him. There seemed to be magic in his voice that calmed him down.

"Master, I have a deep hatred for the demons. Please teach me some methods to attack and kill them!"

She said sincerely, with anger burning in her eyes.

"Okay! Since you have this intention, I will teach you some Taoist methods!"

Zhou Tong had a sharp gaze and saw through the other party.

"You have the Godly King of all the dragons in your body, but it is still dormant. You need to strengthen your mental strength to activate it."

"You're right!"

Zhong Ningxue was shocked. It turned out that nothing could be hidden from the person in front of her.

"You have already read the Soul Refining Technique, and I believe you also understand its effects. That is just the introductory chapter."

Hearing this, Zhong Ningxue didn't know what to say.

Such a unique skill is already of the highest level, but I didn't expect it to be just the introductory chapter.

"I have two advanced secrets here, the Thirty-Six-Elephant Divine Refining Technique and the Seventy-Two-Elephant Divine Refining Technique. Which one do you want to choose?"

Zhou Tong's voice was full of temptation. When he mentioned the number seventy-two, even Zhong Ningxue's breath was held. She naturally knew what to choose.

"Master, Master... I want to learn more, please teach me more!"

"Hahaha…"

Zhou Tong couldn't help laughing!

"You are a teachable kid. Come forward."

Zhong Ningxue did as she was told, and Zhou Tong pointed a finger at her forehead. In the blink of an eye, she arrived outside a temple.

"Where is this?"

"This is your altar, and the source of your spiritual power."

Zhou Tong's voice was heard nearby, and he strode forward, bringing Zhong Ningxue into the temple.

As soon as she stepped in, a terrifying mental force hit her in the face, causing Zhong Ningxue to stagger and almost fall.

"Don't panic, I'm here!"

Zhou Tong easily broke the torrent and helped Zhong Ningxue stabilize her body, giving her the opportunity to check her surroundings.

"This is..."

She opened her eyes wide and saw thirty-six statues placed on each side of the temple, with a total of seventy-two gods depicted.

Each statue is hundreds of feet tall, emitting an irresistible pressure, but it is covered with rust and dirt, which conceals its majestic appearance.

"Master... do you want me to cleanse these statues with my spiritual power?"

Zhong Ningxue was enlightened and a flash of inspiration appeared in her mind.

"That's right, let me show you!"

Zhou Tong said with a smile, and with a wave of his hand, his extremely strong mental power rushed to the first statue on the left, washing away all the lead from it and revealing its true appearance.

"Hum..."

There was a sudden burst of light in the temple, as if there was the sound of a bell, and the majestic rhythm of Taoism. Golden ripples visible to the naked eye gathered from the air and converged into Zhong Ningxue's body.

Under the warmth of these waves, the God King Dragon in her body also responded, gushing out more gold. In an instant, Zhong Ningxue's aura surged violently!

"One elephant god king!"

"Bang!!"

With a loud roar, she stepped directly into the semi-saint level, only one step away from her peak!

"It seems that you succeeded. Your strength in all aspects has doubled compared to before."

Zhou Tong nodded, feeling somewhat shocked. This Divine King Dragon was indeed extraordinary.

Immediately afterwards, Zhong Ningxue retracted her magical powers, and the Divine King Dragon in her body dimmed again.

"I've found the secret!"

She said excitedly, but her breath was a little disordered and her body was slightly red. It was obvious that she could not fully withstand such surging energy.

"You must remember that at present you can only activate the Two-Elephant Divine King Dragon at most. If you increase the power further, you won't be able to bear it!"

Zhou Tong instructed.

"I understand, Master!"

Zhong Ningxue agreed readily.

…

Hongchen Mountain, a hundred miles away.

A young man suddenly appeared, emitting a strong aura that was extremely similar to Zhong Ningxue, and his identity was obvious.

Zhong Shan, the saint of the Sky Dragon Clan, has increased his strength to the third level of semi-saint since he defected to the Demon Clan.

"Zhong Teng was killed here..." Zhong Shan said with a gloomy expression.

"You are so mean, Zhong Ningxue. No matter what means you used, today is the day you die. You dare to be on equal footing with me with your low-level talent. I will correct this mistake now!"
