Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Of course, Mu Hanyan knew that mastering all the Cultivation Techniques would not be an easy task. Such a terrifying Meteor Shower, such a formidable energy, had only revealed one percent of the Techniques. To witness the remaining ninety-nine percent, who knows how much dreadful energy would be needed to drive the Star Compass.

At the pinnacle of a Third-tier Swordsman, Mu Hanyan’s Cultivation once again came to a halt. After all, no matter how amazing the Cultivation Techniques in the Star Compass were, they could not make up for her own deficiencies. For over a decade, she had struggled in her Cultivation, her Realm always stagnating at Swordman First Rank. However, since her foundation was solidly built, she managed to leap from Swordman First Rank to Third-tier Swordsman once she mastered this set of Cultivation Techniques. But even this rapid progress had its limits; the Qi filling her was ultimately finite, and it was not possible to keep advancing indefinitely.

Just as Mu Hanyan was about to stop, she felt a warmth in her palm. A trickle of gentle and soft energy, ever-flowing, slowly infused into her body from the Star Compass in her hand. Her power continued to rise, effortlessly breaking through the bottleneck of a Third-tier Swordsman and entering the Realm of a Fourth-tier Swordsman.

This is... Mu Hanyan was so delighted she nearly laughed out loud. It turned out that after the Star Compass absorbed the energy from the Meteor Shower, it not only revealed a set of profound and mystical Cultivation Techniques but also stored that energy within it, directly transforming it into Qi and infusing it into her meridians.

With the infusion of this Qi, Mu Hanyan’s body underwent a qualitative transformation.

A layer of fine black dots, along with her sweat, emerged from her pores and quickly dissipated into the air. Her skin took on the irresistible luster of an infant, all the while emitting a faint, natural fragrance.

Meridian clearing and marrow washing—it was the legendary meridian clearing and marrow washing!

Mu Hanyan clearly ”saw” that the meridians within her body had expanded more than doubly, becoming exceptionally tough and elastic. Her bones and muscles had also become many times more robust than before. Wasn’t this precisely the legendary meridian clearing and marrow washing!

Mu Hanyan had once heard that on the Holy Court Continent, Spirit Pills for meridian clearing and marrow washing were sold. Even the most untalented fools could become geniuses overnight after taking them. However, as far as she knew, even those miracle medicines could not compare to her current condition. Moreover, they were incredibly expensive, truly costlier than gold, and even her father, the Family Head of the Ye Family branch in Heishi City, could not afford them.

But now, she had completed the meridian clearing and marrow washing just like that, and the effect was many times stronger than that of the legendary Spirit Pills.

Her strength continued to rise.

From the Middle Stage of a Fourth-tier Swordsman to the Late Stage, to the peak, breakthrough—Fifth Rank Swordsman.

Despite having experienced many surprises, gleams of ecstatic joy still flashed in Mu Hanyan’s eyes. Even in her past life, she had only managed to go from Swordman First Rank to Fourth-tier Swordsman, yet this time, she had easily reached Fifth Rank Swordsman, and everything was still far from over—her power continued to climb upward.

...

Heishi City was packed with townspeople crowding the ramparts, all of them looking at the falling Meteor Shower in the distance with a mixture of astonishment and awe.

Such an extraordinary sight was said to be rare in a thousand years. The blinding glare of the fires and the vibrations felt underfoot left everyone’s heart pounding.

”A sign from the heavens often heralds a great disaster. I think Heishi City is no longer a place to stay for long. We’d better make a quick escape,” said one person, his face ashen.
