Fortunately, it was Xinghuan Qianji who took action, not her. Otherwise, if the crack was a little bigger, she would not even have the chance to feel the pain and would be crushed into powder by that force.
The heart-wrenching pain continued to flood into Mu Hanyan's mind, and she no longer had the energy to think about anything else. She quickly took out a handful of healing pills and fed them into her mouth, chewing them a few times before swallowing them.
Her life was at stake, so she didn't care how toxic the medicine was.
A hot current rose in the abdomen and quickly flowed into the eight extraordinary meridians. Mu Hanyan immediately felt the pain eased, and the ruptured meridians began to repair and heal under the effect of the elixir.
However, the majestic and violent power of the stars was still flowing into his meridians. If he relied on pills, even if he consumed all the pills worth tens of millions, it might not be enough.
Mu Hanyan did not dare to delay and took the opportunity of repairing her meridians to practice the Tianxin Gongfa with all her strength.
A mysterious halo flashed across the center of his eyebrows, and the power of the surrounding stars rushed into the center of his eyebrows like a flood that broke through a dam, all the way down, and rushed into his heart meridian.
At this moment, there was a sharp pain even in the heart.
Mu Hanyan was horrified. If it was just the meridians that were ruptured, it would be fine, at least there was still a chance of recovery. But if the heart meridians were damaged, even if he didn't die, he would lose all his cultivation and become a cripple.
Mu Hanyan concentrated her mind and looked inward, her heart burning with anxiety. At this moment, she saw a strange light flash in her heart meridian, and the giant sword outlined by starlight shone with thousands of brilliant rays, releasing a majestic power.
The originally violent and chaotic power of the stars, under the pressure of that mighty power, suddenly became much calmer, and the pain in the heart was also much alleviated.
Mu Hanyan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the giant sword was protecting her heart meridian. Otherwise, the wave of star power just now would have been enough to seriously injure her and leave her with no chance of recovery.
Mu Hanyan only then realized how much benefit the mysterious star disk's upgrade had brought her. Not only did it have a magical storage space, but it also had a towering sword that protected her heart meridians. Mu Hanyan was very much looking forward to what other magical uses this star disk would have if it upgraded again.
Having just escaped a disaster, Mu Hanyan did not dare to be careless at all, let alone be distracted and have random thoughts. After all, it was the heart meridian that was most important, and even with the giant sword guarding it, she could not take it lightly.
Mu Hanyan was afraid that if time went on, the giant sword would not be able to protect her meridians, so she took another pill that could temporarily increase her strength and practice her skills at a faster speed.
The energy flowed rapidly, refining the power of the stars into energy. However, her speed was obviously still not as fast as the speed at which the power of the stars flowed into the eight extraordinary meridians. Soon, the piercing pain came from the meridians again. Under the impact of the terrifying power, even blood seeped out of her skin.
Fortunately, Mu Hanyan had prepared a sufficient supply of pills. Without hesitation, she took out a handful of pills and stuffed them into her mouth, chewing them like beans. After barely repairing her meridians, she once again began to practice her skills at full speed, refining the power of the stars into her own energy.
…
The number of pills in Mu Hanyan's arms kept decreasing, and her meridians kept breaking and repairing again and again. Even her snow-white gown was stained with blood.
However, Mu Hanyan's cultivation level is also constantly improving. From the late first stage of swordsmanship to the peak of the first stage, she broke through to the second stage of swordsmanship, the middle second stage, the late stage, the peak... Buzz, a pleasant buzzing sound like the sound of an immortal came from her mind.
Mu Hanyan broke through the bottlenecks almost without any hindrance and was promoted to the third level of swordsman!
Her eyes were moist with joy. Although she had only jumped two levels, from the first level to the third level, she must not underestimate the improvement of these two levels.
If it were any other swordsman, it would take at least three to five years to advance from the first level to the third level through normal training. However, her qualifications were different from those of ordinary people, and the requirements for each advancement were higher and more difficult, and it was unknown how much time it would take.
And now, in just less than two hours, she has advanced from the middle stage of the first level of swordsman to the third level of swordsman.
And this wasn't the end of it. As her realm improved, her meridians and heart meridians also improved, becoming more than twice as strong as before. The Nine Heavens Star Power posed a much smaller threat to her. Although there were not many pills left, the remaining star power in this enclosed space was also not much, making the threat to her even smaller.
After taking the last pill, Mu Hanyan continued her efforts, practicing her skills to refine the last of the star power.
The strength that has just been promoted is constantly consolidated and continues to improve slowly.
Finally, after refining the last bit of the power of the Nine Heavens Stars, Mu Hanyan's cultivation level remained firmly at the middle stage of the third level of Sword Master.
Looking at the bloodstains on her body and then at her empty pockets, Mu Hanyan laughed cheerfully.
If she had previously felt a little sorry for the tens of millions of dollars spent on the pills, and still felt a lingering fear of the heart-wrenching pain, she no longer felt that way. If she could always advance so smoothly, no matter how much money she spent or how much hardship she endured, she would never hesitate.
Mu Hanyan's mind once again flashed back to Tantai Changqing's contemptuous and cold face. Although she had escaped this time thanks to Ye Lanxun's intervention, Mu Hanyan knew that as her strength increased, the enemies she faced would become increasingly powerful, and she couldn't rely on Ye Lanxun forever.
However, Mu Hanyan is not worried. Relying on this mysterious space connected to the endless void, one day she will become one of the most powerful people in the Holy Court Continent.
Tantai Changqing, one day, I will surpass you with honor and trample you under my feet! Mu Hanyan clenched her fists, a confident smile appearing at the corners of her mouth.
…
Just as Mu Hanyan smiled, hearty laughter was heard from an ancient house in the capital.
"Congratulations, old ancestor, for making the next step forward!" Hundreds of neatly dressed men, women, young and old were all excited and saluted respectfully to the old man in front of them.
"No need to be so polite. I haven't been home for these years and you have suffered a lot." The old man's face was flushed and he was very happy. He waved his hand and said to everyone.
If Mu Hanyan saw this scene, she would be shocked. The old man in front of her, wearing a coarse linen shirt, with a big red nose, and looking drunk, was none other than the narcissistic old drunkard!
Although the old drunkard was still as drunk as he was during the day, the light in his eyes was obviously brighter, and the invisible aura on his body was also stronger.
