And Bingtang, hearing Feng Xiaoxiao's final remark, stumbled and nearly sat down on the floor. Embarrassed? Where on earth was she embarrassed? She was plainly furious!!!

Wei Zhao felt only that the true qi inside him was growing greater and greater. Though he did not need to guide it himself, the swollen, aching sensation in his meridians and dantian still made him miserable—yet it remained within what he could bear!
After all, the first time he had taken a Qi-Gathering Pill, he had still had to compress the true qi and detonate it inside his body to release it; the pain then had been far greater than now. This was merely the lesser sorcerer meeting the greater.
At last, Wei Zhao sensed that the true qi formed inside his body from the Qi-Gathering Pill had reached a peak, with a feeling of water brimming to the point of overflow. Wei Zhao knew he was about to break through!
Sure enough, before long, Wei Zhao felt a great boom inside his body, and the heaven-and-earth spiritual qi around him spun swiftly, forming a giant vortex that poured into his body at flying speed!
A breakthrough. Wei Zhao could clearly feel the change in his senses that came with entering the Heaven Rank; his hearing, his vision, his perception, and the very quality of his body all seemed markedly enhanced!
Instinctively, Wei Zhao began to circulate the mental formulas and oral mantras of the Xuanyuan Dragon-Taming Art. The second layer of the Xuanyuan Dragon-Taming Art flowed smoothly through his body, without the slightest trace of poisoning, and at this moment Wei Zhao finally let out a breath of relief—the poison was at last cured!
Back then, he had been of the Earth Rank, and yet he had been able to kill Heaven Rank experts in an instant? Now, having entered the early Heaven Rank, Wei Zhao could already sense the obvious difference between himself and Earth Rank experts. He wondered whether those Heaven Rank experts he had slain in a single blow had simply been too weak, or what; at the very least, Wei Zhao felt certain that he himself could never be slain in an instant by the Earth Rank self he had once been!
Perhaps even among Heaven Rank experts there were distinctions of strength! And the higher the rank, the more obvious such differences became. At the Yellow and Mystic Ranks, even if there were differences, they were not great—like the difference between one centimeter and nine millimeters, not much at all; from afar, one might not even be able to tell.
But between ten centimeters and nine centimeters, the difference was great indeed—the gap could be seen at a glance. It should be the same among Heaven Rank experts. Of course, this was all merely Wei Zhao's own conjecture!
"Hoo—a breakthrough? This feeling really is wonderful." Wei Zhao had just meant to rise from the bed and stretch, but the next moment he sensed something was wrong. He felt his acupoints were still ceaselessly absorbing the heaven-and-earth spiritual qi from the air—they had not stopped at all!
What was going on? Wei Zhao's face gradually flushed red, and his body, unable to take in the spiritual qi around him, turned purple-blue at the skin—a truly frightening sight! At this moment Wei Zhao felt like a man suffocating in an environment starved of air; his body struggled desperately to absorb the heaven-and-earth spiritual qi! RS
