Pei Mianman rushed over and was also shocked by what she saw: "Is this the 'Gluttonous Devouring Heaven Technique'?"
She knew that Zuan had obtained a secret manual in the secret realm, but she had never seen him use it. Now that he had used it, its power was so domineering.
"Hmm." Zu'an nodded, a ball of flame igniting in his palm, intending to burn the bones of the Mosquito Taoist, which did look rather creepy.
Pei Mianman guessed his thoughts and quickly reminded him, "I think her remains are somewhat useful. She previously absorbed Sang Qian's essence and blood, and has a blood feud with the Sang family. If you hand over her remains to the Sang family, you will definitely gain their friendship. At that time, they will probably turn a blind eye to the fact that you stole their wife."
Having fought side by side before, she had long seen through the relationship between him and Zheng Dan.
Zuan: "..."
"What do you mean by stealing? We were in love, okay?"
Pei Mianman smiled and said, "Yes, yes, you and someone else's widow are in love."
Zuan: "..."
Despite his inner grumbling, he still put the Mosquito Taoist's remains into the Glazed Pearl.
"By the way, you'd better not expose this technique of yours in front of others. Cultivators in the world value their hard-earned cultivation the most. If you knew that you could absorb other people's cultivation so easily, they would probably think of you as a great demon that everyone hates." Pei Mianman reminded her. The reason why Mosquito Daoist was so infamous was because everyone felt uncomfortable at the thought of her being able to suck people's essence.
Zuan nodded: "I know that."
Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've still seen pigs run, right? In martial arts novels, which of those who know the "Star Absorbing Technique" or the "Northern Darkness Divine Skill" isn't wanted to be eliminated by the people of the martial arts world?
Pei Mianman was relieved: "What level of cultivation have you reached now? Why can't I see it clearly?"
Zuan was taken aback and hurriedly began to look inside. The scene inside left him momentarily stunned.
The magic array inside was so bright that it made his eyes a little blurry.
One, two, three, four...
He had just checked his cultivation level not long ago; he was at the fifth rank with the fifth magic array. But now, all of his fifth-rank magic arrays were lit up.
All the bones in his body had become as smooth and lustrous as jade. Although no one told him this, he knew in his heart that his bones had long since transcended the realm of ordinary people.
Is this the state of a cultivator who has reached the fifth stage of bone refinement and achieved great success?
He noticed a new set of magic arrays appearing inside his bones. Based on his previous training knowledge from the academy, this should be a process of cultivating his bone marrow.
He counted the magic arrays inside; there were nine, and all nine were already lit up!
The sixth rank is perfected!
All the bone marrow has a vibrant life force, as if it is endless.
Zuan was somewhat bewildered; he had actually broken through to the sixth rank?
You have to understand that in Mingyue City, someone of this age who is at the fifth rank is already considered a genius. People with good aptitude like Chu Chuyan and Pei Mianman have been training hard since childhood and their families have provided them with unlimited resources, but they have only just reached this level. It is already considered astonishing. So what is this?
He recalled the cultivation knowledge he had learned at the academy: a level 6 cultivation level already allows one to form an elemental protective membrane around their body, making it almost impossible for lower-level cultivators to challenge those of higher levels.
Originally, he couldn't deploy an elemental protective shield because he hadn't awakened his elemental abilities, but now that he can borrow Daji's fire abilities, he can form a fire protective shield around his body.
After assessing the protective shield's strength, he secretly rejoiced. If he hadn't somehow obtained the Tai'a Sword and the Death-Defying Dagger, which allowed him to directly break through such a shield, he probably wouldn't have been able to breach it when fighting those experts before.
The Tai'a sword and the Death-Defying Dagger, which in martial arts novels would be called something like "specifically designed to break through the protective qi of internal martial arts masters"...
He felt that the vast energy within his body still had reserves, and after tempering his bone marrow, it began to temper the blood throughout his body.
Nine magic arrays seemed to be faintly appearing in the main blood vessels of the body.
The immense primordial energy inhaled into the body illuminated three of the magic arrays before finally stopping.
Once a cultivator reaches the seventh rank, they can automatically regenerate health anytime, anywhere. Even if they suffer severe injuries, as long as it's not an irreversible injury like physical mutilation, they can recover to normal given enough time.
Zuan assessed the situation and found that the recovery speed was far slower than that of the "Primordial Chaos Scripture," making it practically useless.
However, he also knew that he had been spoiled by the "Primordial Chaos Scripture," and that this recovery ability was extremely useful to other cultivators.
When facing someone whose cultivation level is lower than yours, the damage they inflict on you is less than the amount you can recover from in a short time.
When facing a master, getting injured is commonplace; being able to recover on your own is like having an extra life.
Zaun seemed a little dazed, and jumped two major levels directly?
"Seventh rank?" Upon hearing his description, Pei Mianman couldn't help but laugh. "Looking at the world, a seventh rank cultivation level is enough to be the lord of a major city, let alone someone as young as you."
Which woman doesn't want her lover to be a peerless hero? The more capable he is, the happier she will be.
“However…” She frowned slightly, looked around Zu An, and kept sizing him up, “Why do I feel that you, a seventh-rank official, are different from the others?”
Zuan was taken aback: "What's different?"
Pei Mianman pursed her lips: "I can't explain it either. Actually, I've seen quite a few seventh-grade cultivators around me, and I can roughly sense their cultivation level. Logically speaking, you're only a seventh-grade third-level cultivator, so I should be able to sense it too. Why can't I see through your cultivation level now?"
