He roughly calculated that it takes about 1,000 anger points to draw one spirit fruit, and several million anger points would be enough to raise Daji to around rank nine.
A few million anger points may seem like a lot, but you can always accumulate them eventually.
Zu An felt a little ashamed of himself. These pretty girls leveled up so easily, so why was it that he couldn't possibly reach the required number of Yuan Qi Fruits to improve his cultivation?
Suddenly, a thought struck him, because he seemed to sense that the surrounding天地元气 (heaven and earth energy) had changed.
He seemed to be able to sense traces of fire element.
With a casual wave of his hand, flames erupted in his palm. Startled, he hurriedly waved his hand, and the flames immediately went out.
He pondered for a moment, then continued to communicate with the surrounding fire elements, and suddenly a ball of flame ignited in his hand.
Having prepared himself, he patiently sensed the flame and felt no threat whatsoever. Instead, he felt a sense of familiarity with it. He casually tried it out and found that he could control the flame at will.
"Huh? How come you suddenly awakened fire elemental abilities?" Mi Li's voice came from within his soul.
Zuan was startled and couldn't help but complain, "Empress, I have reason to believe that you've been secretly spying on me all along, which is why you always appear at such 'opportune' moments."
Mi Li snorted: "Stop being so vain, who wants to spy on you?"
She then appeared, marveling at the ball of flame in his hand.
At this moment, Pei Mianman was focused on refining the Fu Hao Owl-shaped Vessel with her eyes closed, and was unaware of what was happening around her.
"What exactly happened? Did you have some kind of extraordinary encounter again?" Mi Li asked curiously.
Zu An had a sudden thought and summoned Daji. Since she would be frequently out fighting in the future, and Mi Li would definitely be able to see her, he might as well bring her out now so that everyone could discuss her.
Upon seeing the stunningly beautiful woman suddenly appear beside her, even the well-traveled Mi Li was startled: "What's going on? Is someone residing in your body?"
“No, uh…” Zuan thought for a long time, not knowing how to explain Daji’s existence. “You can think of her as my summoned creature.”
"A summoned creature?" Mi Li looked puzzled. She had heard of summoning ferocious beasts, undead, or even dragons, but she had never seen a delicate and beautiful woman summoned.
Suddenly, Mi Li's face flushed slightly, and she spat out, "You really are an old lecher!"
Zuan: "..."
I'm completely innocent! What does this have to do with me? Blame the guy who created this system!
"Is she out of her mind?" After observing her closely for a while, Mi Li immediately noticed the problem.
Zaun nodded: "She lost her soul and memories, leaving only the instinct to fight."
"Judging from your tone, it seems you know about her past identity?" Mi Li asked curiously.
Zuan replied, "She is Daji."
"Daji?" Mi Li was startled. "The one from the Shang Dynasty?"
"How many Dajis are left in the world?" Zu'an said with a wry smile.
"No wonder she's called a thousand-year-old fox spirit. She really is a femme fatale. Even I, as a woman, am tempted by her." Mi Li clicked her tongue in amazement. "But can that delicate body fight? I've never heard of Daji being good at martial arts."
Zuan retorted, "If you, the Empress of Qin, have such a high level of cultivation, why can't others do the same?"
Mi Li blushed slightly; what she said did seem to make some sense.
After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Is she a fire-type cultivator?"
Zuan was taken aback, then nodded: "That should be true."
Daji can summon a nine-tailed fox, whose nine tails are all transformed from flames. What else could it be but fire-based?
Mi Li had an "I knew it" expression on her face: "That's right. According to my knowledge, summoners and summoned creatures often share some abilities. It is probably through her that you are able to communicate with the fire element in the world."
She couldn't help but laugh: "I always found it strange that you hadn't awakened any elemental abilities even though you were at the fifth rank. So that's what you were thinking. If you can summon a few more beings like her in the future, and those people awaken other elemental abilities, you might become the first person in the world to be proficient in all elements."
She paused, her expression turning very strange: "I heard you lost both your parents at a young age and were raised by your uncle?"
Zuan was taken aback, wondering why she had changed the subject.
However, she still replied, "Actually, I don't know whether my parents are really dead or missing. I don't even know who they are."
Mi Li took a deep breath: "You don't need to be confused anymore, I know who your father is?"
"Who is it?" Zu'an was stunned.
Mi Li looked at him strangely: "Heaven is your father."
Zuan looked completely bewildered: "???"
Mi Li gritted her teeth and said, "If it weren't for your father, why would you have had so many extraordinary and unparalleled encounters? Do you even know what it means to be proficient in all types of abilities?"
Zuan: "..."
He also remembered asking this question before. Most people in the world can only awaken one type of ability. Perhaps a very small number of people can cultivate two types, and those are geniuses who are only seen once in a thousand years. If someone like him could use all types of abilities...
Uh, it seems like he's cheating a bit.
Mi Li's chest trembled violently, clearly indicating that she was quite agitated: "We people spend our whole lives cultivating and often can only use one type of ability, but you can use all of them so easily. If I had encountered such a freak before, I would have nipped you in the bud."
Zuan chuckled awkwardly, "It's not that exaggerated. Look at me, my leveling up is quite slow, and it's much harder for me to improve than for normal people. Besides, summoning someone like Daji requires a huge price to pay. I can't possibly summon a second one in a short time. It's not that easy to master all the elements."
Mi Li gave a comfortable "hmm": "Hearing you say that makes me feel much better. But then again, I'd love for you to be as powerful as possible, so my safety would be guaranteed and you could rebuild my body sooner..."
She suddenly paused halfway through her sentence, then turned to look at Daji beside her: "Didn't you just mention that her soul is missing?"
"Ah." Zuan nodded subconsciously, but immediately realized, "She's mine..."
Before he could finish speaking, Mi Li had already pounced on Daji with a smile: "Don't be so stingy, I'll just borrow her body for a while, and I'll return it to you in the future."
