Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 50: 50 The Eternal Strong Reigns Supreme

Mu Hanyan remained indifferent, the taunting voices of the two people behind her rang clearly in her ears, uncaring and quite audible, but she had heard such mockery since childhood and had grown used to it; so used to it that it didn’t even cause a ripple of disturbance within her.

Strength, only with enough powerful strength could one gain respect from others, Mu Hanyan understood this truth more than anyone else, regardless of her past or present life.

Thinking about the strength she was about to regain, Mu Hanyan felt both excited and expectant, so why would she bother with the two hopping idiots behind her?

As soon as she left the city, Mu Hanyan sprinted with all her might toward the west as directed by the Star Compass.

Although she was only a First-level Swordsman, her speed and stamina were still much stronger than an average person’s; it took her only a few hours to travel hundreds of miles.

The Star Compass in her arms occasionally trembled a few times, conveying urgency, as if urging Mu Hanyan to move even faster.

Finally, the Star Compass stopped and the emotions conveyed by it relaxed, Mu Hanyan knew she had arrived at her destination.

Looking around, a vast plain stretched for thousands of miles, the end nowhere in sight, interspersed with dark green rocks resembling ancient beasts in deep sleep.

Having grown up in Heishi City, Mu Hanyan was not unfamiliar with such scenes, yet she could not discern anything unusual.

Could there be some unknown marvel hidden here that could rapidly enhance one’s strength? Mu Hanyan wondered silently.

However, the Star Compass gave no response, and her speculation remained unconfirmed.

It was said to be a treasure that required ”Blood Recognition,” just like other treasures except that this one required not just a drop, but a spray. Hence, Mu Hanyan didn’t doubt the Star Compass. She sat cross-legged and started her cultivation.

The dark night sky enveloped the earth like a vast curtain, with stars twinkling like a silver river hanging across the sky.

Under the starlit sky, a faint mist swirled around Mu Hanyan, slowly condensing. Soon, a pure white Star Point formed between her brows. From it extended a fine white line, trailing down her nose and eventually gathering toward her chest.

This was the Heavenly Heart Technique, the Mu Family’s ancestral Ultimate Skill: it gathered the Heaven and Earth Power at the brows, condensed it into the Heart Meridian, refined it into Qi, known as Heavenly Heart Energy.

This cultivation technique was far more mystical than those cultivated by others. The Heavenly Heart Energy, derived from Heaven and Earth, was also much more powerful than the ordinary Qi others refined from themselves.

A swordsman of the same rank, wielding sword techniques with the Heavenly Heart Technique, naturally showed far superior power.

This was why the Mu Family had stood unshaken for thousands of years.

And yet, this was also why Mu Hanyan had been deemed worthless since childhood.

The Heaven and Earth Power gathered at her brows and flowed into her Heart Meridian, but the color grew fainter and fainter. Eventually, it seemed to disappear like a stone sinking into the ocean, barely condensing into Heavenly Heart Energy, pitifully weak, scarcely impacting her strength.

Mu Hanyan shook her head; it was the same old story. No matter how much she cultivated, she struggled to gather and refine the Heaven and Earth Power into Heavenly Heart Energy, and her cultivation remained stagnant.

It was truly embarrassing to think about—after all, she was the Young Master from the City Lord’s family of Heishi City. Even though their family had been exiled, the Mu Family was one of the most renowned Ancient Families in Anyun Country. After inheriting the lineage and cultivating for over a decade to only achieve First Rank Swordsman status, being called a failure was indeed no injustice.
