One could well imagine how profound this divine ability was.
Gu Changsheng had never come into contact with the Thirty-Six Transformations of Heavenly Gang either.
So he asked the Primordial System.
Ding, analyzing for the host... This profound mystery contains the Law of Thunder. Would you like to derive it?
The Law of Thunder?
Gu Changsheng's expression froze slightly as he asked, "How long will it take to derive this technique?"
Ding, it will take approximately eight years and six months to complete the derivation.
Eight years?!
Gu Changsheng was stunned.
Deriving the divine ability of Mastery of Five Thunders would actually take that long?
That was truly terrifying.
No wonder Saint Yuanshi had spoken such sage words.
But Gu Changsheng had always possessed an unyielding personality.
Back when he had developed the super-intelligent computer, he had thrown himself into it without hesitation, and only then had he developed the Primordial System.
Now, this amount of time was practically insignificant in the primordial world.
Still, Gu Changsheng was unwilling to fall behind others.
The hundreds of cultivators present all possessed great perseverance and comprehension exceeding ten thousand.
Their foundations were far stronger than his own as an Innate Human Race.
Everyone else was working so hard. How could Gu Changsheng not derive it?
"Primordial System, derive the profound mystery!"
Ding, deriving for the host... 1%...
The moment the derivation began, Gu Changsheng felt his mind become exceptionally clear.
It was as though an unfathomable Dao rhythm had given him a general understanding of the art of Mastery of Five Thunders.
Compared to those naturally gifted individuals, Gu Changsheng's use of the Primordial System to cheat was far more effective!
On the dojo grounds, Guang Chengzi secretly glanced at Gu Changsheng.
Realm of Dao Enlightenment, Optimizing Divine Ability!
On the grounds of Jade Void Palace, the hundreds of cultivators gradually entered a state of Dao enlightenment.
Those who had ascended Jade Void Palace all possessed extraordinary foundations and talent.
Thus, everyone quickly began to comprehend it.
Gu Changsheng sensed the profound mystery.
As an Innate Human Race, his foundation could not compare with those Primordial beings.
It could even be said that the difference between them was like heaven and earth.
Only the Primordial System's derivation ability allowed Gu Changsheng to comprehend the profound mystery slightly faster than these cultivators.
At this moment, his expression was calm and composed.
Compared to the cultivators who sometimes frowned and sometimes looked baffled, Gu Changsheng was much quieter.
Ding, derivation for the host has been completed!
Just as Gu Changsheng was immersed in it, a system notification rang in his ears.
Gu Changsheng, who had awakened from his Dao enlightenment, had a sharp glint flash through his eyes.
In an instant, it was as though enlightenment had been poured directly into him. Gu Changsheng immediately understood the cultivation method for that profound mystery.
He also gained a complete grasp of the essence behind Control of the Five Thunders.
It was like first reading through it once and gaining an understanding of this divine ability before beginning cultivation.
That was far easier than cultivating it directly like the others.
It was like others still reading an article word by word, sentence by sentence.
While Gu Changsheng already understood its general contents and knew the full picture.
"The key to this divine ability is comprehension. Only by grasping its essence can one master its mysteries."
"But if one cultivates blindly, the result will only be counterproductive."
Gu Changsheng's thoughts raced. I used the Primordial System to derive this divine ability. As for cultivating it, that will be much easier.
Without thinking further, Gu Changsheng began cultivating.
In truth, this divine ability was incredibly profound.
Even Daoist Randeng, an Innate Divine Demon, had yet to comprehend it.
But Gu Changsheng still did not wish to lag behind.
His foundation and talent were both inferior to the other man's. He could only rely on the Primordial System's powerful derivation to complete his cultivation.
However, now that he understood the divine ability, cultivation had become little more than rote practice.
In an instant, Gu Changsheng felt strands of spiritual qi flowing toward him.
Then, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi gathered into him like rivers flowing into the sea.
A vortex of spiritual qi seemed to form before Gu Changsheng.
Ding, a slight deviation has been detected in the host's cultivation of the divine ability. It has been corrected for the host!
Gu Changsheng was quietly delighted.
This was the power of the Primordial System.
Whenever it encountered an imperfect aspect, it would derive and correct it until it was perfect.
This also allowed Gu Changsheng to avoid minor deviations and cultivate smoothly.
Moreover, not a single bit of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was wasted in the absorption process.
At this moment, Gu Changsheng gradually sensed a force of law condensing and enveloping his body.
Ding, the host's cultivation of Control of the Five Thunders has reached the introductory stage and is about to enter deeper cultivation.
Deeper cultivation?
While delighted, Gu Changsheng had the Primordial System thoroughly analyze Mastery of Five Thunders once more.
Ding, analyzing for the host...
As the notification sounded, Gu Changsheng resumed his cultivation.
The force of law and profound mystery circulated within his body, deepening his understanding of Mastery of Five Thunders.
Time passed like a galloping white steed, vanishing in the blink of an eye.
Before he knew it, twenty years had passed.
Over those twenty years, the hundreds of cultivators had gained varying degrees of understanding of the divine ability Control of the Five Thunders, depending on their comprehension and talent.
Some cultivators had merely glimpsed the entrance.
Others had already comprehended the third level.
Suddenly, a long howl rang out.
"This divine ability truly is profound!"
The voice was so loud that it startled the entire dojo, drawing the gazes of all the hundreds of cultivators.
They saw Daoist Randeng, whose appearance was withered and haggard, suddenly smile.
"Fellow cultivators, among the Thirty-Six Transformations of Heavenly Gang, the divine ability Control of the Five Thunders is not considered the strongest. You need not comprehend too much of it. Reaching the third level will be enough."
A cultivator asked in surprise, "Fellow Daoist, have you comprehended the third level?"
"For me, this method of comprehension is rather easy."
Daoist Randeng smiled, causing all the cultivators to close their eyes and resume cultivation.
Gu Changsheng heard Daoist Randeng's words but said nothing.
He would not stop at the third level as Daoist Randeng had suggested.
Suddenly, another notification sounded in his mind.
Ding, analysis for the host has been completed! Ding, the divine ability Control of the Five Thunders still contains imperfect aspects. Repairing them for the host!
Imperfect?
Gu Changsheng's expression froze slightly, as though he understood.
If this divine ability is optimized and perfected, I'll comprehend it even faster.
What was lacking at birth could be made up for through later effort!
There was still plenty of time before the hundred years were up.
As long as he thoroughly comprehended the divine ability Mastery of Five Thunders within those hundred years,
he would be able to enter Saint Yuanshi's sect.
After all, if everyone only needed to reach the third level as Ran Deng had said,
then Gu Changsheng's chances of success would be even greater.
"Primordial System, how long will optimization take?"
