Chapter 177 Thunderpeak "Master Yuan!"
"Yuan Di Shi!"
"Master Yuan!!!"
If Cang Wanli hadn't mentioned it, Chen An would never have known that such mysterious and unpredictable beings existed in this world.
He had always believed that cultivation in this world was primarily based on martial arts, with alchemy, weapon crafting, and formations as secondary skills.
But no one expected that someone would break free from the constraints of the Flesh Body Realm, communicate directly with the heavens and earth, and roam the world with the power of the earth's veins and the stars.
Of course, what Chen An valued most was that the profession of Yuan Master could actually measure the origin of the earth's veins and find the Yuan Crystal veins hidden underground, which were Yuan Crystal mineral veins.
If he could become a Yuan Master, would he still lack Yuan Crystal?!
"I wonder if our Heaven-Dominating Sect still has any lineage of Yuan Masters?!" Chen An asked Cang Wanli with expectant eyes.
Cang Wanli gave Chen An a strange look, then shook his head and said, "There was indeed a lineage of Yuan Masters in our sect before, but that was tens of thousands of years ago!"
"For tens of thousands of years, my Heaven-Dominating Sect has endured countless calamities, and although it has always stood firm, the complete lineage of the Yuan Master has long been severed."
"Currently, the sect's records on Yuan Masters consist only of some basic surveying methods and incomplete notes, which are not systematic at all!"
Upon hearing this, Chen An frowned slightly.
Unexpectedly, even the Heaven-Dominating Sect, a sacred martial arts sect, no longer has the cultivation methods of Yuan Masters.
"Are there any other places that offer this Yuan Master cultivation method?!" Chen An asked again after a moment's thought, somewhat unwilling to give up.
"As far as I know, even tens of thousands of years ago, the Yuan Master was a mysterious and rare cultivation path."
Cang Wanli shook his head and said regretfully, "Moreover, our Human Race has experienced thousands of years of demonic calamities, and even the path of martial arts was almost severed, let alone the lineage of Yuan Masters."
Upon hearing this, a hint of helplessness and disappointment flashed in Chen An's eyes.
I never imagined that the path to wealth I had just come up with would be cut off like this.
However, Chen An wasn't too disappointed.
According to Cang Wanli's words, although most of the Yuan Master cultivation methods in the Heaven-Dominating Sect were incomplete, some of the most basic surveying methods and incomplete notes remained.
If it were someone else, they might not be able to use these to complete the Yuan Master's cultivation methods.
Don't forget, he possesses a system!
Perhaps, he can use the system to deduce the true cultivation method of a Yuan Master and thus become a Yuan Master.
"Lord Chen, look ahead, Thunderpeak is just ahead!"
Just as Chen An was pondering, Xue Changfeng, who was leading the way, suddenly spoke up to remind him, pointing to the solitary, towering peak that pierced through the sea of clouds in the distance.
Looking up, this Thunderpeak is at least ten thousand feet high, its summit hidden among swirling clouds and mist, with faint, scattered lightning crackling around it. Strands of extremely pure primordial energy flow down with the mountain breeze, making one feel refreshed and relaxed just by looking at it from afar.
Cang Wanli slowly walked to Chen An's side and introduced with a smile, "This peak is the Thunderpeak, the residence that I had Changfeng prepare for you!"
"By the way, I see that you, Brother Chen, are following the path of thunder. Thunderpeak, because it contains countless metallic minerals, easily attracts thunder. Over the years, it has naturally formed a natural thunder-gathering field."
"Normally, thunderclouds swirl around the area, and lightning strikes from time to time. For those who cultivate thunder-based techniques, it is a rare and precious paradise."
"What do you think of this peak, Brother Chen?!"
"Alright, thank you for your trouble, Brother Cang!" Chen An looked at Thunderpeak in front of him and nodded slightly.
In fact, whether he lived in Thunderpeak or somewhere else, it didn't make much difference to him.
Anyway, he wasn't a proper martial artist.
Moreover, his cultivation method is different from others. He cultivates the Purple Sky Thunder Emperor Scripture, so even without a thunder-path treasure land like Thunderpeak, he can summon thunder out of thin air.
However, Chen An did not refuse.
He noticed that Thunder Spirit, who had been perched on his shoulder somewhat listlessly, had perked up its ears excitedly upon seeing Thunderpeak. Its little nose twitched incessantly, and it let out a soft murmur towards the thunderous aura in the clouds above the peak. Tiny sparks of electricity danced slightly along its fur, as if it couldn't wait to go forward and devour the thunder.
It's obvious that Thunder Spirit really likes this environment.
Considering that Thunder Spirit was born after absorbing a massive amount of lightning, it seems that a treasure land like Thunderpeak, rich in lightning essence, is the most suitable environment for its growth.
"Eek!"
Thunder Spirit seemed unable to suppress the restlessness in her heart. She gently scratched Chen An's clothes with her little paws, and made a soft and urgent whimper in her throat. Her bright vertical pupils were fixed on the rolling thunderclouds on the peak. Tiny arcs of electricity crackled all over her body, as if she couldn't wait to rush into the sky full of lightning and play and devour it.
"Okay, go ahead!"
Seeing this, Chen An couldn't help but smile, raised his hand and gently rubbed the little guy's head, and said with a faint smile.
"Eek!~~"
Upon hearing Chen An's words, Thunder Spirit let out a clear and cheerful cheer, then transformed into a streak of blue light and darted off from Chen An's shoulder with a "whoosh," so fast that even Martial King Realm like Xue Changfeng could only catch a fleeting afterimage.
The streak of light shot straight into the sky and plunged into the thick, rolling thunderclouds atop Thunderpeak.
In an instant, the entire thundercloud suddenly boiled over, and countless bolts of lightning as thick as buckets danced wildly like silver snakes, crashing down, only to be swallowed whole by the Thunder Spirit.
It frolics and plays freely in the thunderclouds, sometimes chasing lightning, sometimes rolling in the sea of lightning. With each bolt of lightning it devours, the light on its body seems to become more dazzling.
"This..."
Upon witnessing this scene, Xue Changfeng and Shen Zongyue's family, who were unaware of Thunder Spirit's origins, were all dumbfounded.
None of them expected that the seemingly small, obedient, and cute spirit beast on Chen An's shoulder would be so extraordinary.
Shen Qinglan, in particular, stared in disbelief as she watched the Thunder Spirit spirits frantically devouring and chasing the lightning in the sea of thunder. Her mouth gaped open as if it could fit a duck egg, her face filled with shock.
She never imagined that the cute little creature she had held in her arms could actually flow freely in the sea of lightning, and even devour those terrifying bolts of lightning.
"As expected of a rare species from the starry sky, Brother Chen, you have obtained such a strange beast. I am envious! Haha!" Looking at Thunder Spirit's extraordinary appearance, even Cang Wanli couldn't help but show a hint of envy on his face.
Chen An didn't pay much attention to this.
To him, Thunder Spirit was merely an external object, an unexpected delight.
Ultimately, you have to rely on yourself!
Only when you are strong can you truly rely on yourself.
Although he was new to the Heaven-Dominating Sect, he was already quite eager to see the cultivation techniques and scriptures collected in the Heaven-Dominating Sect's library!
