Chapter 386 Zi Mian Driving Gundam
Chapter 386: Zi Mian Appears
Sensing Zi Mian's arrival in Xuefeng City, Zhang Chi decisively left Hong Li in the fish tank and went out himself.
Hong Li couldn't go out alone because she was a demon. Once she transformed into a human form, her Monster Qi would leak out.
However, if she remained in her original form, the Monster Qi wouldn't leak out.
In the human world, the Snow Mountain God Temple is the most hostile towards the Monster Race.
Zhang Chi had seen records about the ancient Snow Mountain God Temple in a legendary book left behind by the Talisman Treasure Sect.
It was because of the fight against the Monster Race that the Snow Mountain God Temple collapsed.
Of course, this part of history is unclear. In order to suppress the influence of the Snow Mountain God Temple, major forces prohibit recording this aspect of history.
Time washes away everything. If there are no records left, no one will know what the Snow Mountain God Temple was like in the past.
Even though cultivators have lifespans of hundreds of years, things that happened thousands or tens of thousands of years ago would remain unknown to later generations without any evidence left by their predecessors.
The records Zhang Chi saw were just mentioned casually and were not verified.
However, the Snow Mountain God Temple's rejection of the Monster Race is very firm. It is difficult to see a large-scale Monster Race within the influence of the Snow Mountain God Temple.
Occasionally, some mountain spirits accidentally turn into demons. Once exposed within the human's field of vision, they would be mercilessly hunted down by the Hall of Discipline.
Of course, powerful Monster Kings like Hong Li don't need to worry too much about the Hall of Discipline as long as they are careful.
Hong Li is Zhang Chi's back-up plan. If he encounters a situation he can't handle, he can let Hong Li take care of it first while he escapes.
In Xuefeng City, Zhang Chi didn't need Hong Li. Most of the time, it was safe.
There is a spiritual connection between master and servant, so even with a white face mask, Zhang Chi was able to successfully meet up with Zi Mian.
After meeting, Zhang Chi brought Zi Mian to another base he had prepared beforehand.
When Zi Mian took off her face veil, Zhang Chi exclaimed, "Xiao Zi, you've grown up?"
Before Zi Mian took off her face veil, Zhang Chi thought that the taller Zi Mian was just a disguise, changing her height.
Changing one's appearance is also a way to protect oneself when traveling the world.
For example, Zhang Chi stuffed a lot of padding in his clothes to make himself look like a strong man with a hunchback, and then painted his face a little yellow, instantly losing his pretty boy appearance.
The white cloth covering the face is just the first line of defense, makeup is the second line, and behind that is a human skin mask, which is the third line of defense.
As his first maid, Zi Mian is also a trained assassin, so it's normal for her to be good at disguises.
But after she took off her face veil, Zhang Chi knew that she had really grown up.
She had transformed from a cute little loli into a slightly more mature young girl.
Her height had also grown from 1.2 meters to 1.5 meters, and her face had changed from twelve years old to fifteen years old.
Maintaining a proportional growth.
Zi Mian also wanted to surprise Zhang Chi, so she didn't hide anything except for the face veil, just to shock Zhang Chi when she revealed herself.
"Because I had a breakthrough in my cultivation."
Zhang Chi: "......"
So, the setting is that you lolis all grow up when you have a breakthrough in your realm?
Jin Ling'er is like that, and Zi Mian is the same.
Of course, despite the complaints, the reasons why the two of them don't grow up are not the same.
Jin Ling'er had an excessive amount of Golden Spirit Qi in her body, which she couldn't control before, so she had to suppress it along with her physical body. She can also switch to an unsealed state at any time.
In other words, she was already grown up, she just sealed herself.
As for Zi Mian, she really didn't grow up. The cultivation method she practices is very special and requires her state of mind to reach a certain level in order to grow.
Her previous attachment to Jiang Qingyun was actually more like a mother complex, and her mentality was relatively immature, so her appearance also looked immature.
After being with Zhang Chi for a long time, her mentality was also influenced. After her cultivation breakthrough, she naturally became a young girl.
Otherwise, just a breakthrough in cultivation wouldn't change her appearance.
"So, you're already in the Divine Ability Realm?"
Zhang Chi was secretly shocked by the card-drawing ability of the former Stormwind Tower, Jiang Qingyun, a hundred-year-old Divine Ability, and Zi Mian, also a hundred-year-old Divine Ability.
Zhang Chi didn't know that Jiang Qingyun had already condensed the Demonic Heart, which was even more exaggerated than the hundred-year-old Dao Integration.
When Zhang Chi asked about Zi Mian's Divine Ability, she openly talked about her breakthrough method.
Originally, she had already reached the peak of the Divine Soul realm, and the breakthrough was just a step away.
This step is also a bottleneck that has trapped many Divine Soul cultivators. Whether they can cross it or not depends on their comprehension and fate. It is meaningless to just wait.
There are also many cultivators who rely on early-stage medicine to accelerate their cultivation to the Divine Soul realm, but they can't break through to the Divine Ability for the rest of their lives. This is very common.
Zi Mian didn't know how to break through originally, so she just went with the flow.
Last time, when Zhang Chi used the disguise of Zhen Shan to deceive a few treasures from the Black Emperor, he kept the Sea Spirit Pearl for himself and gave the rest to Zi Mian.
The Ten Thousand Year Ice Crystal Stone and the Undersea Flame Ice Stone are both rare artifact refining treasures, so Zi Mian used them to forge puppets.
Puppet masters always lack materials, and these scarce materials are the ones they lack the most.
With the completion of the puppet made with the Ten Thousand Year Ice Crystal Stone as its core, Zi Mian broke through in a daze.
She didn't know how she broke through, but she felt a bit trance-like, as if she had comprehended something, and then her Divine Ability bloomed.
After breaking through to the Divine Ability Realm, Zi Mian didn't gain control over a certain Divine Ability like other Divine Ability cultivators. Instead, her own abilities changed.
She can use a puppet as her life puppet and nurture it in the Divine Ability Flower, enhancing its abilities.
This is just an addition. The more important thing is that her puppets can also use Divine Ability.
She can imprint the Divine Ability she comprehends into the core of the puppet, and then the puppet can use that Divine Ability.
This characteristic is not weaker than Hong Li's Heart Tree Secret Technique.
The difference is that Hong Li can use multiple Divine Abilities by herself, while Zi Mian can only imprint one Divine Ability on each puppet, and each puppet can only have one.
However, she can control up to nine puppets at the same time.
In other words, as long as she carries nine puppets with her, plus herself, she is equivalent to ten Divine Ability cultivators.
Of course, her own Divine Ability doesn't have much effect and can only nurture her life puppet.
To demonstrate the magic of her life puppet, Zi Mian directly summoned the puppet from the Divine Ability Flower.
Zhang Chi only saw a puppet with a red and blue color scheme appear, then it disintegrated on its own, and each limb attached itself to Zi Mian. Before long, a three-meter-tall giant appeared before Zhang Chi.
The giant emitted a metallic luster all over its body, with an ice cone in its left hand and a fireball in its right hand. It was like a cybernetic cultivator.
Zhang Chi was dumbfounded. I was still cultivating, and you already have a Gundam?
