5-Star Silver Rank:
40 Dragon Marks4,000 points added to all parameters
Gold Rank:
50 Dragon Marks5,000 points added to all parametersNie Li's Unique Case:
Nie Li has a special advantage where each Dragon Mark adds 100 more points to his reserves of soul force (which are like his energy reserves rather than his cultivation level). So at Gold Rank, Nie Li has 5,000 more soul force reserves than any other Gold Rank cultivator, giving him more endurance and sustainability in battle. However, this doesn't mean he has surpassed the Gold Rank level; it just means that he has much more stamina and soul force than others in his rank. This is why he can potentially fight Black Gold Rank cultivators, even though he himself is still Gold Rank.
Friends' Power Levels:
Ning'er, Du Ze, and Ziyun:
Infinitely close to 4-Star Silver Rank, with their bodies already reaching that level thanks to the special techniques Nie Li shared, which enhance their physical strength and hide their presence from the Sage Emperor.
Lu Piao and the others:
Close to 3-Star Silver Rank, following behind the others in terms of progress.
Yang Xin:
5-Star Black Gold Rank, due to her extraordinary talent (similar to Ye Ziyun's) and the Life Goddess Technique that suits her perfectly, unlocking her full potential.Additional Clarifications:Dragon Marks increase overall power, including strength, speed, endurance, defense, and soul force.Soul Force Reserves are what allow Nie Li to have more energy for longer fights, but his cultivation level remains in line with his rank (e.g., Gold Rank).Friends' Body Training: Due to the techniques Nie Li provided, his friends' bodies are naturally enhanced alongside their cultivation, so they don't need to do separate physical training.
This setup helps explain why Nie Li and his friends are much stronger than others at their rank, yet still not completely surpassing their current cultivation realm. They simply have more reserves, better techniques, and overall enhanced abilities.
