Five Lightning-Attribute Divine Abilities and Secret Arts!

Red Dragon Mountain Range, Yinglong Guard An'Tan Branch.

Led by the Immortal Dongshi, Zhou Hao, dressed in black, arrived in front of a magnificent palace with carved railings and painted beams.

The palace was about a hundred feet high and covered an area of nearly a thousand feet. Four golden-armored soldiers stood in front of the main gate. Zhou Hao glanced at them and realized they were four puppets, each with a powerful aura, comparable to Earth Immortal or Loose Immortal.

"This is the Dao Treasury Palace," the Immortal Dongshi said with a smile. "Every branch of the Yinglong Guard has the same Dao Treasury Palace as the headquarters, containing countless methods, secret techniques, and miscellaneous arts. Once the Immortal of Changsheng has chosen one, simply tell the golden-armored puppet in front of the gate."

The four golden-armored puppet soldiers glanced at the two men but did not stop them from approaching.

"East Stone, I'll go in and take a look. If you have something to do, go ahead and attend to it," Zhou Hao said.

"Alright, Changsheng, please take your time," said Immortal Dongshi.

When Zhou Hao entered the Dao Treasury Palace, the Immortal Dongshi did not leave, but instead walked to the side and waited patiently.

As someone who could make Left King so concerned about him, he dared not neglect Zhou Hao in the slightest.

... Dao Treasury Palace.

Zhou Hao quickly glanced at the rows of exquisitely carved crystal tables.

The Dao Treasury Palace of the Yinglong Guard branch is enormous.

This one floor alone is much larger than the three floors of their Mysterious Heaven Sect Dao Treasury Hall combined.

"I estimate that in the entire Xia Clan Great World, only the Xia Mang Clan's royal treasury contains more cultivation techniques than the Yinglong Guard," Zhou Hao sighed inwardly.

There are eighteen pure Yang level Qi refining methods here alone, and three hundred and sixty immortal level Qi refining methods.

As for the Heavenly Rank Qi Refining Methods, there are at least tens of thousands of them.

However, the Qi refining method, the <Divine Firmament Dao Scripture> cultivated by Zhou Hao's Asura God clone, is also a pure Yang level Qi refining technique, no less than the techniques collected here. Therefore, he only casually flipped through it before heading straight to the second floor.

The second floor also features rows of crystal-clear tables, upon which sit books with covers shimmering with starlight.

This place is full of supernatural powers and secret techniques, which is precisely the purpose of Zhou Hao's visit.

"Lightning element, lightning element, lightning element divine abilities and secret techniques..." Zhou Hao searched.

A moment later, they finally found the table containing lightning-based supernatural powers and secret techniques.

There were only five simplified versions on the entire table, as they were only the supernatural secrets of the Thunder and Lightning Dao lineage.

These are the supernatural powers <Thunder Radiance Eye> and <Five Thunder Diamond Body>, and the secret techniques <Thunder God Realm Robe>, <Thunderclap Lightning Escape Art>, and <All-Heavens Divine Thunder Formation>.

"The Five Thunder Diamond Body?" Zhou Hao's eyes lit up.

My current physical body is cultivating the <Xuanwu Great Divine Ability>, but firstly, the <Xuanwu Great Divine Ability> is mainly based on the mysteries of the water element and the technique is incomplete, lacking techniques above the primordial spirit level; secondly, cultivating it consumes too much primordial Origin Liquid.

The original human cultivator consumed 300,000 jin of Origin Liquid to cultivate to the first level. This Asura God clone is dozens of times larger than the original human cultivator, so wouldn't it consume tens of millions of jin of Origin Liquid for the first level alone?

As Zhou Hao carefully examined the abridged version of "Five Thunder Diamond Body," his smile grew wider and wider.

The Five Thunder Diamond Body is a simplified version of the supernatural power the creator practiced, the Sixteen-Foot Golden Body, which was passed down to future generations. To cultivate this supernatural power, one must bathe in lightning and undergo five rounds of purification by five different types of lightning before finally achieving mastery and attaining the Vajra Body.

The entire set of supernatural powers is divided into five levels.

At the Void Return level, gods and demons can refine themselves to the fourth level, where they can cultivate their divine bodies to a degree comparable to immortal-grade magic treasures.

The fifth level of the Great Completion Realm is something only gods can cultivate. When the Vajra Body is cultivated to its extreme, it can rival a top-grade immortal magic weapon. Standing there, no matter how much an immortal magic weapon or even a common pure yang magic weapon strikes at it, at most a few sparks will fly out, without causing any damage!

"I'm currently at the fifteenth level of the Chiming Nine Heavens Map. Although it's only at the perfected Nascent Soul stage, it's comparable to the early stage of the Void Return stage in ordinary God-Devil Body Refining techniques. That's enough to cultivate this divine ability to the fourth level," Zhou Hao thought to himself. "Most Celestial Immortals use Immortal-grade magic treasures, and even the strongest ones are probably only at the level of ordinary Pure Yang magic treasures. That's enough."

Most importantly, this Five Thunder Diamond Body supernatural power is easy to cultivate!

Simply bathe in lightning to refine it, and you can completely customize a lightning-type immortal-grade magic weapon for cultivation. At most, it will only take a few million catties of Origin Liquid to complete the process.

Compared to the "Xuanwu Great Divine Ability", this is much more cost-effective.

"The exchange requires 30,000 merit points?"

Even if this physical supernatural power is mastered to its limit, it may not have the same upper limit as the subsequent techniques of the <Xuanwu Great Divine Ability>, but it is currently the most suitable for his Asura God clone.

Moreover, this supernatural power is a simplified version of the <Sixteen-Foot Golden Body>, one of the most powerful supernatural powers in the Three Realms. So, when I become stronger in the future, I can completely switch to cultivating the <Sixteen-Foot Golden Body>.

"This is it." Zhou Hao nodded, put away the simplified version of the Divine Body and Divine Power manual that he valued most, and then started looking at the other manuals on divine powers and secret techniques.

The supernatural power <Thunder Radiance Eye> is a simplified and modified version of the top supernatural power <Thunder God Eye> in the Three Realms. It collects lightning and thunder into the eye, and then opens up a third eye that is like the 'Heavenly Eye' of the divine soul. Not only can it release lightning to kill enemies, but it can also see for tens of thousands of miles and explore all the hidden dust particles... It takes 15,000 merit points to exchange for the full version.

The secret technique, "Thunder God Realm Robe," can only be cultivated by those who have entered the Lightning Great Dao. It can gather lightning to form a protective layer on the body's surface.

Once the first level of 'Lightning Protection' is mastered, it is comparable to a low-grade earth-level protective magic weapon, and can even imbue attacks with the power of lightning, making it both offensive and defensive.

The second level requires the cultivator to reach the ' Great Dao Domain ' in the Great Lightning Great Dao to succeed.

At this moment, the lightning surrounding the body can truly transform into a thin ' Thunder God Robe,' comparable to a Heaven-Rank Protective Magic Treasure.

The strongest third level requires not only the Lightning Great Dao, but also the Heaven and Earth Great Dao to reach the ' Great Dao Domain ' in order to master it.

At this moment, the Thunder God Robe appeared to be a thin layer, but it seemed to have created a small world of thunder, and could be called the ' Thunder God Realm Robe '.

The physical body is protected within the Thunder God Realm Robe. When cultivated to its peak, as long as it doesn't encounter an attack capable of destroying a small world space in one blow, the physical body will not be damaged. It is absolutely comparable to a Celestial-grade protective magic weapon. Exchanging for the complete book requires 40,000 merit points.

The secret technique, "Thunderclap Lightning Escape Art," allows one to transform into lightning. When mastered to its highest level, a flash of lightning can transport one to a place thousands of miles away... Exchanging for the complete manual requires 30,000 merit points.

"I'll take them all!" Zhou Hao exclaimed excitedly.

Of the five simplified manuals of supernatural powers and secret techniques on this table, apart from the one titled "The All-Heavens Divine Thunder Formation," which is more inclined towards formations to trap, kill, and seal enemies, the other four are all perfectly suited to him.

Even with the secret technique of the <All-Heavens Divine Thunder Formation>, although he wasn't skilled in array formations, Liu Yu was.

With a Daoist partner skilled in formations, how could one possibly fail to master a mere <All-Heavens Divine Thunder Formation>?

Most importantly, this lightning-based array technique was cheap, costing only 8,000 merit points, so he bought it all.

"The supernatural power <Five Thunder Diamond Body> requires 30,000 merit points to exchange."

"The Divine Power <Thunder Radiance Eye> requires 15,000 Merit Points to exchange."

"The secret technique <Thunder God Realm Robe> requires 40,000 merit points to exchange."

"The secret technique <Thunderclap Lightning Escape Art> requires 30,000 merit points to exchange."

"The secret technique <All-Heavens Divine Thunder Formation> requires 8,000 merit points to exchange."

"A total of 123,000 merit points," Zhou Hao calculated to himself. "I have 10,000 merit points left. I'll go to the treasure vault and see if I have enough to exchange for the treasures needed to cultivate these supernatural abilities and secret techniques. If not, I'll have to buy them with Origin Liquid."

When he last wiped out the Blood God Sect, he still hadn't dealt with the immortal-grade magic treasures of the Blood God Child, the Golden-Robed Loose Immortal, and the Seven Dharma Kings. Apart from keeping some treasures that he and Liu Yu could use, he could sell all the assets of the nine Loose Immortal and get at least ten million catties of Origin Liquid, which would be more than enough.

Holding the five simplified manuals of supernatural powers and secret techniques, Zhou Hao excitedly left the second floor.

Buzz~~~

Suddenly, starlight surged in front of the table where Zhou Hao had taken all the simplified versions of the supernatural techniques, forming Dao Sect.

A middle-aged man with a tall crown, a pale face, no beard, and a cold aura emerged from the gate.

"You have good taste." The tall-crowned man looked at the empty table and couldn't help but snort. "Knowing these five supernatural techniques are extraordinary, you didn't let a single one slip by. Lucky kid."

Wow!

The tall-robed man waved his hand, and more than ten simplified versions of supernatural powers and secret techniques reappeared on the table, but the five supernatural powers and secret techniques that Zhou Hao had chosen were no longer there.

After doing all this, the man in the tall hat disappeared from the Dao Treasury Palace in a flash.

Dao Treasury Palace.

Zhou Hao handed the five simplified versions of the book to the golden-armored puppet.

"You've made your choice so quickly?" Immortal Dongshi, who was standing to the side, walked over.

It's perfectly normal for someone to spend half a day choosing from so many supernatural powers, secret techniques, and methods when entering the Dao Treasury Palace for the first time. Yet, Zhou Hao came out in less than an hour.

"I think those few supernatural abilities and secret techniques are all suitable, so I'll just buy them all."

Zhou Hao was overjoyed to have been able to exchange for five supernatural techniques that would greatly enhance his strength.

"That's true. With your merit points, ordinary supernatural abilities and secret techniques only cost a few thousand points, enough to exchange for dozens of them." Immortal Dongshi leaned closer to see what kind of supernatural ability Zhou Hao had chosen.

To his surprise, the golden-armored puppet didn't give him a chance to see it at all. It directly put away the simplified version of the cultivation technique and handed Zhou Hao a Storage Bracelet.

"Here are the original texts of the cultivation techniques you have chosen. Do not easily reveal your supernatural abilities, lest your enemies know your trump cards and target you specifically."

After speaking, the golden-armored puppet remained standing there, ignoring the two of them.

"Changsheng, I just wanted to see how you cultivate your supernatural powers and secret techniques, and whether there's anything I can do to help." Immortal Dongshi stood awkwardly to the side, feeling quite embarrassed.

There was nothing he could do; this golden-armored puppet was directly under headquarters and not a real living being, so no matter how annoyed he was, he could only endure it.

"I understand," Zhou Hao said with a smile. "Speaking of helping out, if I can't exchange for anything in the treasure vault later, I'll have to trouble East Stone to prepare some cultivation treasures for me."

"No problem," Immortal Dongshi assured him. "Even if it's difficult to find, I'll have Azure Dragon issue a bounty and have all the Yinglong Guard in the branch search for it. We'll definitely help Changsheng gather what he needs."

"Okay." Zhou Hao nodded. "Take me to the treasure vault first."

First update. There will be another update tonight, which will be quite late.
