C97 (1/2)

Just as the two of them were deep in thought, the grid on top of the crystal pillar fiercely jumped, followed by the second and third columns lighting up at the same time. It was a magnificent sight.

Qin Zheng's face changed, his eyes became fervent.

The fourth grid.

The sixth square!

Without much time to spare, the dazzling luster of the three grids suddenly swelled up like a flood bursting through a dam, aggressively lighting up the three grids in succession.

When Qin Zheng saw this, his eyes narrowed with excitement. He remembered Jiu Mu Li's suggestion just now, and now that he had seen her Inherent Skill, he became excited for a moment. This woman, was always full of miracles!

As matters stood, Jiu Mu Li's talent as an alchemist was unquestionable. As long as she could find and absorb the Heavenly Flame, she would be followed by a large number of Spirit Stones. At that time, forget about breaking through to Starer, even Star Masters would not be a problem.

”Six slots, what great talent, it's comparable to a genius!”

Kaiser's eyes bulged, his mouth opened so wide that eggs could be stuffed inside.

He had originally thought that Jiu Mu Li would return in disappointment, but he never expected that he would be surprised to such a degree. In his opinion, with the relationship between Jiu Mu Li and Qin Zheng, Jiu Mu Li was now completely tied to the imperial family.

If there was a request from the Imperial Family in the future, Jiu Mu Li would definitely not reject it. A talented alchemist, Kaiser could imagine that the Imperial Family would definitely not lack medicinal pills from now on.

However, before they could get excited for a moment, the seventh square suddenly lit up. Moreover, it did not slow down at all and was still jumping around.

Could it be that his talent has yet to reach the bottom?

Kaiser was so shocked that he could not react. Just as he thought about it, he saw that there were two more boxes on top, which lit up all of a sudden.

”Ss, nine lattice talent. Incredible. This is heaven defying.”

Kaiser was completely absent-minded at the moment. In the entire continent, even if one were to be placed with a nine lattice talent, one would definitely not be able to surpass a genius at the peak of one palm.

What did this mean? This meant that if Jiu Mu Li was nurtured, she would be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with some grandmaster alchemists in the future.

After all, the highest talent one had in the entire history of the crystal pillar was only 10 columns. Moreover, this had already happened countless years ago. It was so old that no one could remember it.

As for his twelve columns of innate talent, it was simply unheard-of. Even the existence of the invention of the crystal pillar had not reached that level.

”Ah Zheng, how did she do it? Where did you meet the nine girls?”

Kaiser was extremely excited as he asked Qin Zheng beside his with a flushed face. He even addressed Jiu Mu Li differently.

”Don't you know who she is?”

Qin Zheng's taut face also softened, both his eyes were equally filled with shock. To be able to shock him, it could be seen how big of a stir Jiu Mu Li had caused.

Just as the two of them were speaking, two more boxes of grids on the crystal pillar lit up. The light emitted from the entire crystal pillar became even more intense, making it seem as if it had become transparent.

The light in Qin Zheng's eyes grew brighter, and his face revealed a look of disbelief.

Kaiser was already numb to his shock and for a moment, he didn't know what to say. He could only stare foolishly with reddened eyes.

”How could this be? Such a genius is actually a Qin Nation cultivator, this is the fortune of my Qin Nation! Could it be that the heavens have blessed my Great Qin? Not only is there a cultivation genius like Ah Zheng, but he also has a talent of eleven levels?”

Kaiser roared in his heart, his excited body trembling nonstop.

To the Imperial Family, this level of talent was simply incalculable.

But at this time, Jiu Mu Li felt that it was extremely strange.

From the moment she placed her palm on the crystal pillar, a cool stream of air continuously flowed into her body, circling her once before returning to the crystal pillar.

In that short moment, she felt as if the crystal pillar's breath was merging with her own.

As this feeling rose, it was as if the crystal pillar had been infected by her. The sudden burst of cool air from the crystal pillar suddenly increased dramatically, turning from a thin thread into a stream, and then into a torrential river.

This cooling energy circulated within her body. After returning to the crystal pillar, it was as if she had imprinted it with some sort of imprint, allowing her to clearly sense the structure of the crystal pillar.

”Buzz!”

At this moment, she suddenly felt the crystal pillar start to shake, and the lattice on the crystal pillar also began to shine brighter, from six slots to nine, following closely behind eleven, and the crystal pillar was still shaking, even more violently than before.

”Crack!”

The sound of something shattering echoed in her ears, followed by the sudden lighting of the twelfth square.

”Oh no, it's cracked!”

Jiu Mu Li cursed in her heart, she could clearly feel the cracks on the crystal core. Anxiously, she retracted her right hand.

”Pah!”

The entire crystal pillar suddenly cracked and pieces of the crystal stone fell onto the ground.
