Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 352: 352 Harness the power of all things for your own use!

Mu Hanyan nearly went mad as she tried to drive the poison out of her body with her Qi. She knew that the poison chosen by Zong Dingfang was no ordinary toxin, and her current strength might not be sufficient to expel it. In fact, she felt the potency of the poison; in the few moments since she had been injured, her shoulder had become completely numb, as if her arm had been severed. Her legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and her head spun with dizziness.

However, no matter how fierce the poison was, she had to try, even if there was only a sliver of a chance, she would not surrender without a fight.

Suddenly, Mu Hanyan froze. The poison did not behave as she had hoped; instead of being suppressed in one area, it flowed through her meridians as the Heavenly Heart Technique circulated, and following the Qi through a small cycle, it reached the Heart Meridian.

Yet, the poison did not cause any damage to the Heart Meridian; instead, it was instantly neutralized. With Concentrating Inner Vision, Mu Hanyan was surprised to see that her Heavenly Heart Energy was continuously increasing, and once again, specks of starlight twinkled and shone.

Heavenly Heart Technique, absorbs the power of all things for one’s own use! Mu Hanyan suddenly realized, not only the Nine Heavens Star Power condensed by Yan Yuchu’s Sky Star Technique but also Zong Dingfang’s poison was a force of all things, which could also aid her cultivation.

Of course, from this, it was also evident how formidable the poison was. With ordinary toxins, presumably, there would have been no effect; at most, it would have allowed Lady Mu to experience a moment of invulnerability.

Inside the Heart Meridian, the starlight continued to flicker. Just as Mu Hanyan had guessed, with each increase in strength, the stars that lit up multiplied exponentially. The last time she advanced to the Eighth Rank Swordsman, a total of fifteen stars had lit up. This time, however, sixteen stars shone in succession.

Her strength had already reached the limit of the Ninth Rank Middle Stage Swordsman, just a step away from reaching the Late Stage. This time, almost without feeling any bottleneck, she smoothly reached the Ninth Rank Late Stage Swordsman and continued to climb.

The fifteenth star lit up, and the stars emitting brilliant light within the Heart Meridian had now reached a total of thirty. Just one more, and Mu Hanyan would reach the Tenth Rank, becoming the strongest among Swordsmen—the Great Swordsman.

Unfortunately, the rise in her Qi stopped at that moment, and the last star remained dim and lightless.

”What a pity. If only that old man used a more powerful poison, then it would be over,” Mu Hanyan internally lamented with regret.

”It was powerful enough. Any more and you would have been dead,” the Star Plate suddenly flashed, revealing a row of small text.

”Isn’t it supposed to be invulnerable to all poisons?” Mu Hanyan had planned to find some poison to consume for fun after this event was over since compared to other cultivation resources, poisons were much cheaper. Seeing the words from the Star Illusion Thousand Machine gave her a big scare.

”How can it be invulnerable to all poisons? Do you think you are a God? Although the Heavenly Heart Technique can leverage the power of all things, it cannot exceed the boundaries of what your strength can bear,” another row of text appeared on the Star Plate.

”So that’s it. Right, weren’t you unwilling to help me before? Why are you here now, have you changed your mind and decided to help?” Even though her strength had greatly increased, Mu Hanyan was still not confident about handling Qu Shanhai and another person alone, and naturally hoped the Star Illusion Thousand Machine would lend a hand.

”Wishful thinking. I’m just afraid you might poison yourself to death,” the Star Plate flashed a big eye roll and then quickly disappeared. Clearly, it still had no intention of helping.

You wretch!

Mu Hanyan mentally rolled her eyes.
