His training reached its fourth day.
Once again, the system notification rang out.
Ding-dong! Congratulations, host! Lightning Release-Nine Changes of the Thunder God has reached level 20 and evolved to the third stage: Frenzied Thunder Body Tempering!
"Aaaah...!"
The instant the notification ended, Yechen felt as though lightning had struck him and let out an earth-shattering scream.
Lightning surged wildly around him, relentlessly tempering his flesh. The agony of being struck by lightning was easy to imagine.
Half an hour later, after enduring that torment, Yechen underwent a transformation.
The muscles throughout his body became more resilient, which also meant his defenses had improved further.
That was not even the most astonishing part. A layer of lightning as thin as a cicada's wing covered his skin, like a suit of Lightning Armor clinging to his body. It closely resembled the Third Raikage's Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
Once the numbness faded, Yechen assessed his condition and immediately felt that all the pain had been worth it.
Frenzied Thunder Body Tempering had not only tempered his flesh, but also granted him two Lightning Release Ninjutsu.
Lightning Release-Lightning Armor: Increases defense. Close-range attacks inflict paralysis. Lightning Release-Boil Release: Stimulates cellular activity, briefly enhancing physical performance.
Lightning Armor needed little explanation. It was similar to the Third Raikage's Lightning Release Chakra Mode, but Yechen was still in the early stages. Reaching the Third Raikage's level would require continued training.
Boil Release was a lifesaving measure, allowing him to unleash power beyond his normal limits in a crisis.
In short, this evolution of his Lightning Release had brought Yechen a considerable improvement. His physique had grown stronger by a substantial margin.
After settling his mind, Yechen immersed himself in training again.
Meanwhile, outside.
The Willow Town Stronghold was making the most
