In Ning Chuan's secluded cultivation grounds, a second strand of Immortal Qi emerged from his body.
Using the Qilin Armor to test himself again, he confirmed that he had crossed the fourteenfold threshold and finally reached sixteenfold.
But this also made him frown deeply. Sixteenfold-that was the level Huang had reached with his very first strand of Immortal Qi!

This could only mean one thing: even without Immortal Qi, Huang could contend with someone who had cultivated one strand. Only that could explain how his Dao Fruit had reached such an outrageous level with his first strand of Immortal Qi.
