Chapter 240: Thunder Seed! The Way to Open the Energy Bomb!
Chapter 240: Thunder Seed! The Way to Open the Energy Bomb!
In the previous chat with Empty God Dragon.
The Dragon Clan in their world was also divided into several levels.
True Dragons belonged to the first level, with rare numbers and pure bloodline.
Dragons with Spatial Power were even fewer.
The next level was the Giant Dragons.
Giant Dragons were further divided into three-clawed and five-clawed.
The next level below was the Wyverns.
Wyverns were further divided into two-winged and four-winged.
The lowest level was the Pseudo Dragons.
Pseudo Dragons had mixed bloodlines, but still possessed very strong combat power.
The bloodline of the Dragon Clan represented their racial potential and the power they could inherit.
However, even the lowest-level Pseudo Dragons were at least of the rare grade.
For example, Feng Xiao’s Magpie Fairy Dragon was a Wyvern.
The Dragon’s Roar sounded, the dark clouds burst apart, and dark thunder rumbled down.
“This is not ordinary thunder.”
Wang Che glanced at it, his Divine Sense immediately perceiving that this descending thunder was far from ordinary.
The silver-black lightning not only emitted strong electric currents but also could cause some damage to the spirit.
“It seems a bit like Yin Thunder.”
Wang Che thought for a few seconds.
Thunder techniques in the Cultivation World were diverse.
These thunder techniques were different from the heavenly thunder calamities.
Their power also varied greatly.
For example, the Five Element Divine Thunder used the power of the five elements to cultivate thunder techniques, each with its own unique uses.
The Taoist Five Thunders Righteous Method was the most famous.
As the old saying goes, struck by five thunders.
It actually referred to five special types of thunder.
And if looking across the universe, the thunder Wang Che had encountered was even more varied.
Some cultivators specialized in thunder techniques, and the thunder they released was more terrifying than ordinary thunder calamities, capable of splitting stars and cracking suns.
Yin Thunder was a type of thunder that caused great damage to the spirit and soul.
The thunder at hand felt somewhat similar to Wang Che.
Its own power was no less than ordinary Heavenly Thunder.
“I wonder which level this Wyvern is on? Why is it casting this thunder to attack that Golden-winged Thunderbird?”
As the thunder kept descending, the Golden-winged Thunderbird was struck in mid-air, its posture becoming twisted, its body gradually turning black.
Especially its pair of crimson eyes, which slowly lost their luster.
As if its soul was shattered, they slowly turned into lifeless black.
“The Golden-winged Thunderbird is about to die.”
Wang Che shook his head.
Thinking of this, Wang Che was about to call back Little Caterpillar and leave.
At that moment, Little Caterpillar suddenly sent a response.
‘I think I found something good!’
Wang Che was startled.
He saw Little Caterpillar using Silk Spitting to fly out from the Thunder Trees where the Thunder Birds were perched in the distance.
Wang Che controlled the Magnetic Sword and quickly caught Little Caterpillar.
He found that Little Caterpillar had something in its mouth.
“What did you find?” Wang Che asked.
Little Caterpillar opened its mouth and spat out a crystal filled with thunder aura.
It was a semi-transparent crystal the size of a pebble, like a lake.
Inside the crystal, a silver-black lightning was continuously crackling and sizzling.
“This is… a Thunder Seed?”
Wang Che said in astonishment.
A Thunder Seed, as the name implied, was a seed containing thunder.
Of course, it was not for planting.
It was used for cultivation.
In the Cultivation World, due to the power of nature, when Heavenly Thunder descended, it would mutate with different environments, giving birth to Thunder Seeds.
Cultivators who practiced thunder techniques would usually search for various Thunder Seeds.
Otherwise, they could not cultivate some powerful thunder techniques.
This world had similar things, like the crystal in Wang Che’s hand.
“This is no longer a normal resource… although there’s only a little, it can be considered a Natural Treasure?”
Wang Che looked puzzled.
The first layer space shouldn’t have such things in theory.
Wang Che looked at the Golden-winged Thunderbird falling from the sky.
He roughly understood something.
“Could it be that this Golden-winged Thunderbird stole it from the upper layers? The Golden-winged Thunderbird is best at speed, stealing things is indeed its specialty.”
Wang Che thought it was very possible, “Could it have been stolen from that Wyvern? After discovering it, the Wyvern cast this thunder to punish the Golden-winged Thunderbird. This Golden-winged Thunderbird knew the Wyvern would attack it, so it immediately summoned its clan to resist together.”
Hmm, the Golden-winged Thunderbird was very brave!
Daring to go to the upper layers to steal things.
A good idea.
And then… Little Caterpillar stole its home.
Those Thunder Birds were performing thunder resonance, all crouching on the ground, their spirits united with the Golden-winged Thunderbird.
When the Golden-winged Thunderbird was injured, they were also injured, unable to move.
“Sii!”
Little Caterpillar looked at Wang Che.
“Well done.”
Wang Che patted Little Caterpillar’s head and praised it.
Little Caterpillar: “(^ω^)”
Wang Che’s rare serious praise gave it a lot of satisfaction.
“Magnetic Sword, absorb this Thunder Seed,” Wang Che said as he placed the crystal on Magnetic Sword’s tip. “Then cultivate the Divine Sword Thunder Control True Scripture. When you reach a certain level, you’ll be able to summon this kind of thunder yourself.”
The Golden-winged Thunderbird must have stolen it to cultivate it alone.
Sadly, this crazed Golden-winged Thunderbird didn’t get time to cultivate before facing that Wyvern’s attack.
The Divine Sword Thunder Control True Scripture had details on absorbing and cultivating Thunder Seeds, and it wasn’t complicated.
Wang Che didn’t keep it for himself; he had Magnetic Sword absorb it right away.
At the same moment,
as that Golden-winged Thunderbird crashed down.
A series of Dragon’s Roars echoed from the dark clouds above.
Even though Wang Che didn’t know Dragon language, he could tell the Wyvern was demanding the Golden-winged Thunderbird hand over the Thunder Seed.
Or else it would wipe out its whole clan.
The fallen Golden-winged Thunderbird struggled with unwillingness, dragging its exhausted body to search for the Thunder Seed.
Then… then it let out a cry of mixed shock and anger.
Wang Che smiled.
Judging from their earlier fight, that Wyvern’s Soul Power Cultivation was over two thousand years.
Also, it probably hadn’t come to the first floor itself; it just used some Soul Skill to blast the Golden-winged Thunderbird from afar with thunder.
Magnetic Sword quickly absorbed the silver-black thunder inside the Thunder Seed.
Suddenly, silver-black bolts spread all over Magnetic Sword’s body, shivering with its red glow.
Then they were swiftly drawn in and stored inside.
To not disturb Magnetic Sword’s cultivation, Wang Che held out his Myriad Vault Dao Palace Martial Soul with one hand while making gestures with the other, holding Little Caterpillar as he floated in mid-air using wind control.
“Shu shu!”
Little Caterpillar froze, staring at Wang Che flying in the air, its mind full of questions.
You, why can you fly?
My Soul Pact Master can fly, yet I still can’t?
Little Caterpillar felt it had been badly hit!
“This is called the Art of Wind Control,” Wang Che explained. “It’s a simple low-tier spell that uses Soul Power to ride the breeze and float in mid-air temporarily.”
Little Caterpillar shouted immediately, I want to learn it too!
“Your Gentle Breeze Soul Skill hasn’t evolved yet. Learning this would be too much for you,” Wang Che said. “After it advances to Strong Wind, I’ll teach you this move so you can rise into the air. Combining it with the Art of Wind Control, you won’t need to use your True Dragon Form to fly then.”
Little Caterpillar gave an expectant, silly grin.
But just then, from the dark clouds above, furious roars suddenly aimed at Wang Che’s spot.
They seemed to sense the Thunder Seed’s aura.
“Oh, that Wyvern noticed us.”
Wang Che said with a smile.
Getting spotted wasn’t a surprise; since it could tell the Golden-winged Thunderbird had stolen the Thunder Seed, the seed must have kept its mark.
Little Caterpillar instantly switched to battle stance, implying it would handle things itself.
“You can’t fly yet,” Wang Che said bluntly. “No need to waste your and my Soul Power using the True Dragon Form on the first floor. Next, I’ll show you the power of the Art of Object Manipulation.”
“Listen to me: use Energy Bombs on me first.”
Little Caterpillar nodded, and green light burst out over its body.
Green Energy Bombs kept popping out from Little Caterpillar.
Based on Green Caterpillar’s current Soul Power Cultivation and the Soul Skill’s Proficiency Level,
this move was naturally very strong.
One after another, green Energy Bombs shot toward Wang Che.
Wang Che scooped them all up like doing tai chi, pulling every bomb in.
Then his palms’ Soul Power started flowing, twisting around the bombs like thin threads.
But he didn’t throw them out.
Instead, he placed them in his palm, used the Myriad Vault Dao Palace Martial Soul to suppress them, and compressed them with the Art of Object Manipulation!
In just over ten seconds, over a dozen Energy Bombs were compressed in Wang Che’s palm.
A single star-like green Energy Bomb glowed, radiating extreme destruction.
The bomb hung quietly in the air.
Wang Che flicked his finger with a snap.
Instantly, the super-compressed green bomb erupted with a huge shockwave, transforming into a beam that shot out!
Amidst the Dragon’s Roar, the dark clouds churned like thunder was about to strike.
But the next moment, as that bomb smashed in.
Ping!
Wang Che snapped his fingers.
Boom!
A violent explosion instantly blasted apart the clouds overhead.
From the ground, it looked like the sky had been punched with a giant hole!
This wasn’t just a bomb—it was like a nuke!
Little Caterpillar’s eyes lit up brightly.
This technique was clearly more incredible than controlling multiple Energy Bombs to hit at once.
It felt like the real way to unleash an Energy Bomb.
“Did you learn it?”
Wang Che looked at Little Caterpillar.
Little Caterpillar nodded, then shook its head.
Meaning: its mind got it.
“Your Energy Bomb should soon evolve into the Time-Controlled Explosive Bullet,” Wang Che said. “If you master this, its power will jump up a level.”
Of course, compressing and fusing energy wasn’t as simple as just using the Art of Object Manipulation.
It needed sensing minute energy shifts and using Spiritual Power.
As the cloud broke up, only a faint, angry Dragon’s Roar could be heard.
That cloud was likely a Soul Skill cast by the Wyvern; with it destroyed, thunder couldn’t strike down.
By now, Magnetic Sword was almost done absorbing the Thunder Seed.
Absorbing the Thunder Seed wasn’t too hard, and for Magnetic Sword, which practiced the Divine Sword Thunder Control True Scripture, it was even simpler.
“Keep the absorbed thunder warm inside your body.”
“We’re heading up later to see if that Wyvern has more Thunder Seeds like this. If yes, grab a few for cultivation.”
Magnetic Sword glowed everywhere with silver-black thunder, like a child thrilled with a new toy.
Wang Che glanced around and saw that after all this time, students were finally arriving one by one.
“You’re too late,” Wang Che chuckled, adding that they’d only get leftovers.
Actually, probably no one saw that move earlier.
Kind of a shame.
Wang Che took Little Caterpillar and Magnetic Sword toward the second-floor space…
