Thunderous Saint Body

In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed.

The Phantom Wolves in the Earth Abyss had long since been exterminated, and even the Dung Ball Beasts had been slaughtered clean by Chu Sheng.

Chu Sheng sat cross-legged on the ground and let out a long breath.

"Phew, finally enough..."

Then a blue panel spread out before his eyes.

"Go on, my hard work!"

Ding

3000 Justice Points consumed

Your martial cultivation has advanced to Qi Sea Realm First Layer

The instant the words appeared,

a rumble suddenly erupted from Chu Sheng's dantian.

The spiritual energy that had originally been scattered wildly converged toward his dantian.

Gradually, it formed a crystal-clear vortex.

The vortex spun faster and faster, continuously drawing spiritual energy into itself.

Until it took on the outline of an "ocean."

At that moment, the gates to the Qi Sea Realm burst wide open!

A martial artist faced countless bottlenecks in a lifetime.

Opening a qi sea was one of them.

Countless martial artists spent half their lives in vain, unable to step into this realm.

Limited by aptitude, resources, or perhaps luck.

It could be said that the Qi Sea Realm was a watershed for martial artists.

Yet Chu Sheng crossed it with ease in great strides.

And he had already far surpassed the most outstanding geniuses of his generation.

The top scorer of the National College Entrance Examination in Great Xia each year was, at most, only at Opening Meridian Seventh or Eighth Layer.

Chu Sheng slowly opened his eyes, lightning flickering faintly within them.

"So this is the Qi Sea Realm?"

He lightly raised a hand, and thunderbolts instantly burst forth!

The range of his lightning domain had expanded considerably, and its power had grown even greater.

Although it consumed more true qi, the moment his qi sea opened, Chu Sheng's reserves of true qi increased severalfold.

And the quality of his true qi surpassed what it had been before by several levels.

He could only use it once in the Meridian Opening Realm, but now using it three times in a row posed no great problem.

Ripples of spiritual energy stirred fierce winds within a hundred-meter radius.

The young man's clothes snapped in the wind. Amid the lightning, he shone like an ancient god.

The system notification popped up again.

You have accumulated 25000 Justice Points

LV3 Justice Gift Pack has been unlocked for you

After accumulating 250000 Justice Points, LV4 Justice Gift Pack will be unlocked for you

The earlier a gift pack was used, the earlier it could be enjoyed.

Besides, Chu Sheng had long found this S-rank talent an eyesore.

Congratulations, you have obtained an SSS-rank Talent Advancement Stone

Congratulations, you have obtained a top-grade Enlightenment Pill

"SSS-rank Talent Advancement Stone: Can upgrade any talent to SSS-rank with no side effects. It can be gifted to others to gain their favor."

Gift it to someone?

Chu Sheng realized there was probably something wrong with his system.

Take the Body Tempering Tenth Level from before—it had nearly turned him into a cripple.

And now it was giving him an SSS-rank Talent Advancement Stone to hand over to someone else.

What a joke. Of course good things had to be used on himself!

"Advancement Stone, activate!!!"

Ding

Your S-rank Martial Talent, Thunderous Hegemon Body, has advanced into the SSS-rank Thunderous Saint Body

Do you wish to conceal the phenomenon?

"Get lost."

The next second, thunder boomed.

Even more violent lightning than last time descended.

The whole of Baian City was covered in dark clouds, and the sky suddenly dimmed.

Above the Earth Abyss.

After a moment of stunned silence, the members of the Abyss Quelling Department—

"Holy shit, again!!?"

Last time, someone had awakened an S-rank talent. Could it be that someone had awakened an SS-rank talent this time?

Was Baian City really about to rise?

The high school students across the city went even crazier.

Because the power had gone out!!!

Night had fallen, the power was out, and there was thunder and lightning besides. Wasn't this the perfect time to go wild?

Especially for the senior-year students.

There were just over ten days until the martial examination, and only one week remained before the academic examination.

They went completely wild!!!

Baian Second High School, Class Four.

After heaven and earth returned to clarity, Li Ming, the homeroom teacher, looked at the chaotic crowd below and helplessly shook his head.

The students did not understand what had happened.

But he knew perfectly well.

Within that violent, destructive lightning, there was actually a faint sense of order.

Most likely, someone had awakened a lightning-type Martial Dao Talent, and a very high-grade one at that.

The gap between people truly was immense.

So immense that it lay before them like an impassable chasm.

But these students still did not understand...

If you think this book is good, please remember to add it to your bookshelf so you do not lose it next time.

Perhaps only after they entered society and suffered society's brutal beatings

would they come to realize it.

Fate was decreed by heaven. Thirty percent depended on hard work, while the remaining ninety-seven percent depended on one's birth.

Some people were destined to be extraordinary.

For example...

Li Ming shook his head. He thought of Chu Sheng.

That young man who had risen from humble beginnings and soared into the sky in the blink of an eye.

A genius like him might even feel ashamed before such talent...

Beyond the heavens were higher heavens; beyond men were greater men.

The only thing Li Ming could wish for was that Chu Sheng would fly even higher.

That he would, in his place and in the place of Class Four's students, see the scenery from greater heights.

Opening Meridian Fifth Layer, specially recruited by Dragon Martial Academy, tsk tsk—

How had he deserved to teach such an awesome student...

"Ahem, enough already. Haven't you gone wild enough?"

"Make sure you keep the voluntary agreement to forgo the martial examination that was handed out earlier. Take it home and discuss it with your parents."

"For those below Body Tempering Fourth Level, I sincerely recommend choosing the academic path."

"The martial path is not suited for you."

The air in the classroom instantly became far more oppressive.

After their brief madness, they ultimately still had to face reality.

If they had not reached Body Tempering Fourth Level, they did not even have the qualifications to continue persisting on the martial path.

Even if they stubbornly took the martial examination, they would most likely die in the jaws of Demonic Beasts.

Those lucky enough to survive would not meet the admission requirements of even third-rate academies.

This was another kind of sorting.

It was helpless, but what could they do?

Many people thought of Chu Sheng.

Opening Meridian Fifth Layer... It would be nice if he could share a little of his cultivation with them...

"By the way, teach, what happened just now?"

"Someone probably got lucky and awakened a lightning-type Martial Dao Talent. Their ancestral graves must be billowing green smoke. Even Chu Sheng would have to envy that. We should just watch."

At the mention of Chu Sheng, someone continued asking.

"Teach, will Chu Sheng come back for the graduation photo?"

"I'm not sure. I'll ask him later."

Although Chu Sheng had transferred to the Elite Class before, that had only been during the final month.

He had spent more than two years with the people of Class Four.

Naturally, he still counted as one of the class.

Meanwhile, in the Earth Abyss.

Chu Sheng closed his eyes and quietly felt the changes.

"The Thunderous Saint Body really is powerful!"

Thunderous Saint Body

Trait One: Lightning Control

Greatly increases the cultivation speed and destructive power of lightning-element techniques and martial skills, and grants complete immunity to lightning damage.

Trait Two: Divine Lightning Body Tempering

Greatly increases strength, speed, and defense, making the body far stronger than martial artists of the same level.

Trait Three: Indestructible Thunder Body

Possesses powerful vitality, accelerating the metabolism and repair of body cells. Even severe injuries can be rapidly healed.

Though it only had three traits, the Thunderous Saint Body was no weaker than Blade Mastery—indeed, it was stronger.

Especially the third trait, Indestructible Thunder Body.

Put simply, as long as he did not die, he could remain at peak combat strength at all times!

Broken arms and legs could be restored as well.

Its practicality was directly maxed out!

"There's also a top-grade Enlightenment Pill. It can directly raise a martial skill by one major grade..."

Chu Sheng currently had a total of three martial skills.

Rippling Wave Fist (Yellow-rank Mid-grade)

Spirit Wind Saber Technique (Mystic-rank Mid-grade)

Violet Lightning Piercing Clouds (Earth-rank Mid-grade)

Since it could directly raise a skill by one major grade, an Earth-rank martial skill was naturally the most suitable choice.

Violet Lightning Piercing Clouds was also exceptionally compatible with him, and most importantly, it looked cool.

Let's do it, brothers!

After swallowing the Enlightenment Pill,

Chu Sheng's spiritual platform shook violently!

Ding

Violet Lightning Piercing Clouds has advanced to Heaven-rank Mid-grade—Violet Dragon Embrace Art

A profound aura lingered around him,

and a layer of dark violet radiance spread across Chu Sheng's body.

With one step, countless bolts of violet lightning gathered like roaming dragons.

Wherever they passed, waves of ripples burst through the air.

Previously, he could move only a few meters at most. After advancing, although he was still merely proficient, the distance had increased to more than ten meters.

Looking at the spiderweb-like scorched marks cracked into the ground where he landed,

Chu Sheng felt a hint of delight.

This was no longer merely a movement martial skill. Such terrifying speed, combined with other martial skills, would produce an absolutely astonishing burst of power!

"Tsk tsk."

"It's time to set off and take a look at the Jingwu Bureau."

Chu Sheng had originally planned to leave tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, the moment he emerged from the Earth Abyss, he saw more than a dozen missed calls from Wu Qingshan on his phone.

What had happened?
