Chapter 430: Thunder Technique
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
This Golden-Scaled Cudgel was initially a Divine Weapon that could transform into different sizes. After evolving in Pure Yang Water, it had turned into a Pure Yang Celestial Device. Although it could not be compared to the Highest Heaven Celestial Devices like the Void Traveller, it had its own strengths as well.
Just by weight alone, the Golden-Scaled Cudgel weighed the same regardless if it was big or small. But right now, the weight changed proportionately with the size.
When it was the size of a sewing needle, it weighed slightly more than a real sewing needle. When it was enlarged, the weight of the pole increased as well.
Zhou Bao took out this Golden-Scaled Cudgel and waved it gently in the air. The Golden-Scaled Cudgel immediately stretched to thousands of feet long and weighed nearly ten kilograms. Zhou Bao waved this pole that weighed nearly ten kilograms effortlessly as if it was a piece of straw, and the surrounding airflow and water started to swirl.
Hu, hu, hu, hu, hu…
A strong wind started up. The airflow turned into gales of violent wind that swept around all corners. After being rapidly brandished by Zhou Bao, the Golden-Scaled Cudgel evolved into a ball of purple-golden light, enclosing Zhou Bao in its midst.
Island Owner Lan, let me test how sturdy your space celestial device is!
Zhou Bao roared. The cudgel fell from the sky and hit the waters of the sea with a loud smack.
This plain strike contained an enormous amount of Zhou Bao’s power. The impact felt like a big mountain range had fallen from the sky and hurtled into the sea.
BOOM!
The waters of the sea started churning, which created giant waves that shot up to thousands of feet high. Immediately after, the surrounding space started moving with the flow and weird sounds could be heard. They sounded like a house that had been hit and was falling apart after a thunderstorm.
Whoah… what a violent fella!
was the reaction of all on the Void Traveller when they saw Zhou Bao’s strike. None of them would have been able to withstand an attack like that. Possessing a Pure Yang Celestial Device could not guarantee their safety. Even Yu Nantian, who had a Human Immortal fairy weapon with him, had only a slim chance.
That one strike caused too much of a load on Lan Shui’er’s space celestial device. After that attack, Zhou Bao felt something. It had yet to end. The cudgel in his hand felt like it was swaying along with the wind. Heavenly Jade Technique and Snake-like Breath Holding Skill became one with the cudgel. In seconds, just within a breath’s intake, Zhou Bao struck 18 times consecutively at lightning speed. Each strike was stronger and harder than the previous one. In the 18 strikes, there were two Critical Hits.
Boom, boom, boom!
Yue-er was unable to fight back after facing the 18 consecutive blows. After the hits, the whole space shattered into pieces.
Blue sky, blue ocean, blue world!
All were demolished in a moment!
At the same time, in the current world, the blue canopy which had swallowed Zhou Bao and the rest emitted a flash of cyan light. The Void Traveller and Zhou Bao appeared in the sky.
However, things did not end so fast.
The blue space may have been shattered by Zhou Bao, but the blue canopy did not totally disappear. After Zhou Bao and the Void Traveller got out, the blue canopy started to close in on them.
Zhou Bao laughed coldly, raised his cudgel, and gave a thrust forward.
Puff!
At his first jab, Zhou Bao felt like his pole had landed on a ball of cotton candy, it felt soft and yielding.
Suddenly there was a flash of blue light and a blue water droplet appeared in front of Zhou Bao.
Oh no!
A chilling realization struck Zhou Bao for no apparent reason, and he stepped back subconsciously.
But he was still one step too late.
Boom!
With a loud boom, the small blue droplet suddenly exploded, its strong force sending Zhou Bao flying. The Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Gang Qi, meant for protection, also shook for a while. It smashed into the sea like a brick.
Yin Thunder of Gui Water!
The Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Gang Qi had ensured that Zhou Bao’s body remained intact, but the strong force was still able to send him flying far away.
Thunder Technique!
This strange yet powerful force could only be attained after one had cultivated up to the level of a Genuine Immortal and experienced Thunder Tribulation.
Zhou Bao had heard about the Thunder Technique but had never experienced its powers. Now he knew.
An enormous, almost-destructive force sent him flying away immediately. Zhou Bao could feel an impacted force pressing him down. A small part of his right body was ripped open by this strike. Huge pain engulfed his body.
At the same time, a chilling force seeped strongly into his open wound, destroying his internal body.
Is this the force of the Thunder Technique?
Zhou Bao quickly took a deep breath. The Real Essence in his body was flowing and quickly melted away the force of the chilliness in him. However, before his body could fully recover, another seven to eight blue water droplets appeared in front of him.
Shit!
Zhou Bao cursed softly. He activated the Three Realms Division and moved several times to a place a few kilometers away to escape from the explosions.
So this Thunder Technique is just like those god-damn bombs!
The power displayed from the few explosions of the Yin Thunder of Gui Water led Zhou Bao to have a new understanding of how the Thunder Technique worked.
The so-called Thunder Technique was a system of techniques, a powerful system of Dharma power.
Techniques were the application of Dharma power. Plainly speaking, techniques were secret skills. After one had cultivated Dharma power, there would be all kinds of amazing effects when applying it. This was because the Dharma power itself had all sorts of mysterious uses. These effects were much stronger than the Internal Qi and Real Essense used before one jumped out of the three realms. Additionally, after moving out of the three realms and ascending to Genuine Immortal fairyland, one would have better insights about the Great Way of Heaven and Earth. That was because the Dharma power would have a new understanding of the power in the body. Hence, there was a vast system of techniques. There were many different types and other classifications. It was unlike the secret skills, where the skill, which was a simple application of Internal Qi and Real Essence that would cause uneasiness when activated.
Thunder Technique was one of the many systems of techniques. It was also the most powerful and well-known one. It was not made of real thunderbolts. In this strange world, the power of thunderbolts was of extreme Yang and also one of the strongest. Hence, it was also the best. Only a few cultivation methods could reveal some of its secrets. Once cultivated to the level of Genuine Immortal fairyland, one would have Dharma power to cultivate Heavenly Thunder. These thunders were, in fact, just small bombs. But because their explosion sounded like claps of thunders in the sky, this technique was called the Thunder Technique.
Those who practiced water-property cultivation method and had water-property Dharma power could also use the Yin Thunder of Gui Water. Those who had wood-property Dharma power could practice Yi Wood Thunder. Those who practiced gold-property Dharma power could use the Geng Metal Thunder. These gods of thunder, Thunder Technique, were special applications of the Dharma power. In plain words, they could set off strong chemical reactions, just like the bombs in Zhou Bao’s previous life, be it the black fire or C4. They had nothing to do with the thunders in the skies.
Just that in this world, the effects of Dharma-power-triggered bombs were much more powerful than that of bombs from his previous life. Especially for Lan Shui’er, who was a Four-tribulation True Immortal and was ranked among the top 10,000 in the Ranking of Demons and Immortals. She had already become highly proficient in using water-property Dharma power. Even if she released only a tiny drop of Yin Thunder of Gui Water, a mere drop of water, the bomb could easily cause the deaths of many Individual Immortals, let alone the experts who were not even qualified to be Individual Immortals.
If it was not for the fact that the target of the strong defense of the Void Traveller, as well as the Yin Thunder of Gui Water, was Zhou Bao, the majority of those on the space boat would have died from its first explosion. During the second time when many of the bombs exploded at the same time, it caused great destruction to the Void Traveller. Its giant body was blown far away and the defense was cut down by half. Poor Yu Nantian spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and managed to stabilize the space boat. But even so, his pneuma suffered greatly too. His face was white as sheet, and he was very weak. Now, he did not in the least resemble any expert from Divine Wind Palace.
Shit, shit, shit!
Suffering from such a great blow, Yu Nantian’s expression changed. Instinctively, from the conversation between Lan Shui’er and Zhou Bao and from her attitude, he could tell that she was targetting Zhou Bao. But Yu Nantian and his lot were brought down along unluckily. He felt angry but had no choice. Zhou Bao was too strong a match for him. He might have to use a fairy weapon to bring him down. But if he used a fairy weapon now, it would mean announcing the failure of this whole killing plan. Ye Qingtian was not someone to mess with, he had a fairy weapon too. His own strength was much stronger than Yu Nantian. Although Yu Nantian’s fairy weapon could control Ye Qingtian, after one use, not only would its energy be depleted, Ye Qingtian would also be aware of it. Yu Nantian’s slight advantage would then disappear into thin air.
Thinking about this, how he wished that he could run up to Zhou Bao, haul him up by his collar and interrogate him loudly about what he thought he was doing.
But he also knew that this was not the right time to ask him any questions. He also had no means of reaching Zhou Bao who by now was several kilometers away.
He could only fervently curse that Zhou Bao and Lan Shui’er would both be bombed to death. No, they should be taken alive and tortured. Their skins and veins should be ripped out, their hearts carved and lungs dug out. They should be violently trodden on so he could release the inner hate that was simmering in him.
After Zhou Bao escaped the attacks of Yin Thunder of Gui Water by using the Three Realms Division, he strongly gripped the Golden-Scaled Cudgel in his hand. But he was afraid of directly touching the Yin Thunder of Gui Water. That thing may look small, but when exploded, its power was equivalent to hundreds of tonnes of TNT. It even had special abilities like damaging the Yin in one’s body. Zhou Bao’s body may be powerful, but even he could not withstand the force of such an explosion.
Zhou Bao gasped as he watched hundreds of droplets came flying towards him. It seemed like this Lan Shui’er really hated him to this extent. The Thunder Technique may be very powerful, but the droplets were very hard to cultivate. Usually, only one or two could be successively refined out of ten droplets. They were also not easily replenished. Hence, most of the time, even Genuine Immortals would not carry too many droplets with them. Judging by Lan Shui’er’s manner, she may have already used up the droplets she had preserved for thousands of years. Having to deal with such a forceful figure, Zhou Bao would not be so silly as to go on a head-on clash with her.
Even if the Golden-Scaled Cudgel he was holding on to was a Pure Yang Celestial Device, to directly hit so many droplets would be something that only dumb people would do. Hence, seeing dozens of droplets coming towards him, Zhou Bao immediately carried out Three Realms Division without any second thoughts.
As the saying goes, escaping is always the best plan.
I cannot fight you, but that does not mean I cannot hide from you.
It is best to hide from the enemy first and then think of a plan later!
Oh?
Once the Three Realms Division was activated, Zhou Bao felt that something was not quite right. When he first broke through the hollow, all at once he felt a huge suction force. He was sucked into an unknown black hole and had no time to react at all.
Fairy Lan, do you really need to go to such an extent?
A soft voice rung in Zhou Bao’s ears. Afterward, he fell into a vast black space, and could not hear any more sounds.
