Creating a Technique: Mad Lightning Demon Codex!
After reaching an understanding with True Person Qingshan, White Cloud Commandery ushered in a rare period of peace and tranquility.
On the Fenghe Sect's side, after Old Monster Mu took the Yan Qiu back, he completely sealed off the sect's gates, and his subordinate forces also withdrew their tentacles and went into hiding.
White Cloud Commandery, on the other hand, prospered and began to extend its influence in the opposite direction, gradually eroding the interests of Fenghe Commandery. The tide had completely turned!
As for going out to sea to hunt monsters, that's not something that can be accomplished overnight.
The Level 5 Sea Ape Beast is not only powerful, with combat strength comparable to the Golden Core Middle Stage, but it also inhabits the deep sea, giving it a geographical advantage.
To kill it, True Person Qingshan would need to prepare specially made water-repelling Law Artifact, a trapping formation, and targeted highly poisonous pills.
These preliminary preparations will take at least half a year.
Shi Jian and Yun Du were happy to have some peace and quiet, and could simply wait for news in White Cloud Commandery.
For Shi Jian, this period of free time was the perfect opportunity to consolidate his cultivation and digest his spoils of war...
Purple Firmament Peak, with Leichi (Thunder Pool) at its summit.
Purple clouds rolled across the sky, and thunder roared like a waterfall.
Shi Jian's massive body lay coiled in the center of the lightning pool, letting the raging lightning liquid wash over his pure white fur.
He opened his enormous mouth and swallowed the third-grade high-quality Lightning-Attracting Fruit, which exuded an aura of destruction, whole.
"Boom!"
The moment the fruit entered the stomach, it transformed into an extremely pure source of lightning, which exploded within the body...
This power was incredibly domineering, yet it also contained a glimmer of life.
The Nine-Pattern Lightning Core within Shi Jian's body emitted rhythmic tremors, continuously devouring and absorbing this source, transforming it into its own.
The aura that had just Core Formation core and was still somewhat unstable was rapidly settling and stabilizing at a visible speed...
The nine lightning patterns on the Demon Core became increasingly clear and profound, and the aura became more and more powerful.
"It only matures once every three hundred years; it's truly a fine product."
Shi Jian exhaled a long, stale breath.
This Lightning-Attracting Fruit truly lives up to its reputation as a top-grade third-tier spiritual item. Just one of these fruits saved him at least twenty or thirty years of arduous cultivation, and it also solidified his Early Golden Core realm!
But that's not enough.
With a thought, Shi Jian summoned a light screen that only he could see.
[Enlightenment]: 7
[Cultivation Level]: Early Golden Core (Level 5 Demon General)
Over the years, aside from using a few of his Enlightenment confidants like Lord Rat, Shi Mo, and Lei Huan for enlightenment, he had saved up all the rest.
"It's time to improve myself."
Shi Jian murmured, and with a thought, the seven points of white light merged with his soul.
There were no earth-shattering phenomena, only an extremely cool current of air that appeared out of nowhere in Shi Jian's sea of consciousness.
Including these seven times, he has now used the Enlightenment on himself 50 times. Even while still in the Foundation Establishment stage, his divine soul was already comparable to that of Golden Core.
After breaking through to the Golden Core stage, one is comparable to the mid-stage.
At this moment, his soul grew further, began to expand and transform wildly, and his sea of consciousness expanded rapidly!
A roar came from my mind, and the world in my eyes became clearer in the next instant.
Even within his sea of consciousness, his divine soul condensed, gradually outlining the phantom of a small bear—his divine soul was gradually becoming materialized!
Based on Human Race understanding of Demon Beast, this is the rudimentary form of condensed essence.
Only a level seven Demon General can do that!
This also means that Shi Jian's soul strength is comparable to the Golden Core Late Stage. It's just a pity that Shi Jian doesn't cultivate the Soul Dao, and his use of the soul is too rudimentary.
The only skill I currently possess is the ability to combine beast roars with divine souls to create divine soul suppression, which is more about interference than strong attack.
now--
A chilling depth flashed in Shi Jian's purple-gold thunder eyes.
He felt his mind was clearer than ever before, and the Spiritual Qi wandering in the surrounding world, the trajectory of the lightning's birth and death, and even the subtle fluctuations in space were all clearly visible to him.
His comprehension has increased dramatically!
"You silly bear, how did your spirit suddenly become so strong?"
Purple Firmament's phantom appeared above the Thunder Pool, her tone filled with undisguised surprise. "What did you just do?"
"Your spiritual energy fluctuations are almost on par with those of Human Race cultivator in the Golden Core Late Stage. What kind of all-around tonic have you been taking?"
Shi Jian ignored Purple Firmament's complaints, simply stood up and stretched his limbs; naturally, he wouldn't offer any further explanation.
"Purple Firmament, pass on to me the Thunder Method."
Shi Jian was too lazy to waste words. He currently possessed the cultivation of Golden Core cultivator and a powerful physical body, but his methods of fighting were too limited.
They either used their superior physical strength to fight head-on or brutally unleashed the Purple Firmament Divine Lightning.
His weakness lies in having strength but lacking skill.
Dealing with Yan Qiu in his usual way was a complete surprise, purely because his strength far exceeded the opponent's expectations.
If they were to face Golden Core True Person with profound foundations, or the Level 5 Sea Ape Beast they were about to confront, they would find themselves somewhat outmatched.
He needs a Cultivation Method that truly belongs to him!
"Shall I teach you Thunder Method?"
"I have countless High Antiquity Thunder Method in my mind, but those were for humans or innate Spirit Race."
"You're a bear, how can your meridians and acupoints be the same as a human's?"
"If you don't understand how to practice, then practice!"
Purple Firmament rolled her eyes.
"Enough with the nonsense, bring out the most crucial True Intention of the Dao of Lightning."
"If one method is unsuitable, I will create my own. I will walk my own path, and the paths of those who came before may not be suitable for me."
Shi Jian's tone was calm, yet it exuded absolute confidence.
With his enhanced comprehension from the system, he had the confidence to do so.
Purple Firmament looked at him for a while, and seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, she sneered:
"Fine, you've got guts!"
"I will pass on to you a fragment of the ' Supreme Purple Firmament Lightning-Control True Instruction. ' How much you can comprehend depends on your own destiny!"
A beam of purple light shot out from the illusory image of the Purple Firmament and entered Shi Jian's brow.
The complex and profound True Intention of the Dao of Lightning exploded instantly in Shi Jian's sea of consciousness.
In the past, Shi Jian would have been completely bewildered and unable to comprehend this level of High Antiquity inheritance.
But now, his powerful soul is like a finely millstone, crushing, absorbing, and analyzing these obscure True Intention bit by bit.
In the blink of an eye, he went into seclusion again.
Spring goes and autumn comes, the thunderclouds on the Purple Firmament Peak gather and disperse, disperse and gather again.
For five whole months, Shi Jian did not step out of the forbidden zone...
He combined the principles of the birth and death of thunder from the "Supreme Purple Firmament Lightning-Control True Instruction" with his own bear demon body.
Then, the domineering characteristics of the Purple Firmament Divine Lightning are continuously integrated and deduced.
Countless attempts, countless failures.
His meridians were torn apart by lightning, but then healed thanks to his powerful regenerative abilities.
His physical body was repeatedly tempered during this process, becoming increasingly terrifying. Finally, at the beginning of the sixth month of his seclusion, he...
"Roar--!"
A roar that shook the land for miles came from the Purple Firmament Peak.
As if summoned by some force, the thunderclouds in the sky frantically converged towards the summit.
In the center of the Thunder Pool.
Shi Jian slowly stood up, his five-zhang-tall body now moving freely. The purple-gold lightning around him no longer wandered aimlessly, but instead flowed along an extremely mysterious trajectory, circulating between his skin, muscles, and bones, forming a perfect cycle.
Every inch of flesh and blood seemed to have transformed into a miniature thunder pool.
He succeeded.
Combining the High Antiquity True Intention of Dao of Lightning with the origin of the bear demon, he created a rudimentary method unique to himself...
Shi Jian named it: "The Mad Lightning Demon Codex"
This Cultivation Method does not cultivate the Primordial Spirit, but only the physical body and the power of thunder and lightning.
While his weakness might seem to lie in his Primordial Spirit, Shi Jian Enlightenment System, thus eliminating the flaw of a weak soul!
The Mad Lightning Demon Codex is divided into three levels, each corresponding to one of the three minor realms of the Golden Core.
The first level focuses on cultivating the physical body, repeatedly tempering the body with lightning, and then using the body as the foundation to cultivate Secret Method Divine Ability called: Lightning Armor!
The skin and bones are tempered by the Purple Firmament Divine Lightning, forming a solidified purple-gold thunder armor on the body surface. Its defensive power is strong enough to withstand the bombardment of Law Treasure of the same level without injury.
The main focus is on being able to withstand damage and deal significant damage!
What we need is sturdiness, it needs to be as hard as a rock!
And then one cultivates to the second level.
Then one can cultivate Divine Ability: Thunder Sound!
By combining the power of thunder, the power of the soul, and sound waves, and compressing them into the throat, the resulting roar can shatter the soul of an enemy!
At the same time, the thunder roared and boomed, delivering a double blow to both the soul and the body.
Its third layer.
Cultivate the third Divine Ability: Mad Lightning Prison Domain!
Using himself as the core of the formation, he drew upon the thunderous energy of heaven and earth, instantly creating a deadly Lightning Domain that could trap and kill enemies in the blink of an eye.
Although there are only three layers at present, and they are somewhat rough.
But it is the path that best suits Shi Jian.
Moreover, this demonic technique is almost impossible for any demon to master. Cultivating this path does not require cultivating the Primordial Spirit and soul, but breaking through to the second level requires an extremely powerful divine soul as a foundation.
It's so contradictory that it's impossible to tell unless one is some kind of extraordinary genius.
Almost no one can refine it!
"Abnormal..."
Purple Firmament looked at the lightning flowing around Shi Jian's body and couldn't help but mutter something to herself.
It's not an exaggeration to say that Demon Beast beast can create its own Cultivation Method. After all, the Demon Race has various traditions, but those who can create them are extremely rare in the history of the Demon Race!
It can be said that Shi Jian was the pride of the Demon Race race.
Purple Firmament even saw the possibility of Nascent Soul breaking through to the Shi Jian stage!
Although the growth rate of Demon Race is generally slow, at Shi Jian's current rate of growth, he will probably have a chance to break through to the Nascent Soul realm in no more than three hundred years.
For demons, they can reach the Nascent Soul before they are five hundred years old.
This is equivalent to Human Race Golden Core cultivator breaking through to the Nascent Soul at over two hundred years old; it can be described as a genius among geniuses!
