"Oh, is it already the end?" Ren Pingsheng said softly. As he stepped forward, countless bolts of lightning retreated, causing him no harm whatsoever. In fact, some of them circled around him, dancing continuously.
He spent two days in the Thunder Sea, not only comprehending Thunder's Realm but even mastering it, which left him somewhat incredulous. Initially, he thought he would finish in just a couple of hours in the Artistic Conception space, but unexpectedly, it took him two full days. With his Monsters' comprehension, his understanding of Thunder's Realm skyrocketed, ultimately reaching seventy percent mastery.
It can be said that his gains from the Thunder God Temple were absolutely astonishing. The Nine Turns Body Refinement Technique had reached perfection, and his body was refined to be several times stronger than before, with his meridians undergoing earth-shattering changes. He had also mastered Thunder's Realm to a great extent. Most importantly, he obtained three Thunder Pearls.
It was uncertain whether it was due to the Thunder Pearl integrated into his body, but within the Thunder Sea, even without using Thunder's Realm, the lightning posed no threat to him. Instead, it treated him as if he were a family member.
More importantly, he felt an indescribable connection to the lightning; it seemed he could easily understand everything about it. Perhaps this was why he could achieve such mastery of Thunder's Realm in the Artistic Conception space!
"However, this Thunder Pearl is truly miraculous. Perhaps now that my physique has been transformed, practicing lightning attribute techniques will allow me to progress at an astonishing rate!" He glanced at the Thunder Sea and thought to himself. It's a pity that with the Ancient Lan Divine Art, he really wanted to give it a try.
"I believe others should have already reached the inheritance tower by now; it seems I need to speed up." It was rumored that the Thunder God Temple had no time limit each time it opened until one person passed through the inheritance tower and obtained the legacy. If no one succeeded, the Thunder God Temple would reopen.
However, without a doubt, arriving at the inheritance tower earlier would provide a greater advantage. All being extraordinary geniuses with the capability to challenge the inheritance tower meant that whoever arrived first would likely obtain the legacy. Ren Pingsheng had spent a total of one and a half months in the Thunder Sea, which could be considered quite slow.
At this moment, more than two thousand martial artists had already gathered at the central location of the Thunder God Temple. They entered the inheritance tower one after another, striving for the legacy of the Thunder God.
After passing through the Thunder Sea, there were no further tests or dangers. This place resembled a continent with various landscapes but was vast and boundless, stretching endlessly in sight. Ren Pingsheng traveled alone without holding back and moved swiftly. After three days of travel, he finally arrived at the inheritance tower.
The tower appeared to be a hundred feet tall and bore some resemblance to the sword-testing tower Ren Pingsheng had seen before. However, this tower only had thirteen levels; thus, each level should have ample space.
Around him were some martial artists looking dejected; they seemed to have been eliminated and thus lost their qualifications for obtaining the legacy of the Thunder God.
Ren Pingsheng merely glanced at them before stepping into the inheritance tower. Then he felt a whirlwind sensation and found himself on the first level of the inheritance tower.
What first caught his eye were countless pillars beneath which sat various martial artists who stared intently at them without knowing what they were doing.
Ren Pingsheng observed for a while but couldn't discern any meaning behind it. He found an empty pillar and quietly sat down. He knew that the test on this first level of the inheritance tower must be here. Although he didn't yet know what kind of test it would be, he felt confident that he could pass.
The moment he sat down, he was plunged into darkness. Then bright lights flickered in the distance like fireflies in the night—dancing up and down but never approaching. Ren Pingsheng found himself unable to move and felt puzzled about what this test could be.
"Could it be..." He had an idea. Since he couldn't touch it, his first reaction was to observe it with his spiritual sense. With this thought, his spiritual sense spread out without any hindrance. Then he cautiously approached the beams of light.
"This beam of light feels boundlessly hot, this beam of light is chillingly cold, this beam of light has endless sharpness, this beam of light carries the sound of thunder..." With each approach to a beam of light, a sensation would come to him. Gradually, he began to piece things together; this should be related to Artistic Conception, with each beam representing a different Artistic Conception.
Ren Pingsheng hesitated for a moment and chose the beam that carried the sound of thunder. His spiritual sense slowly probed inside. Since this was the legacy of the Thunder God, he naturally chose Thunder's Realm first.
As his spiritual sense delved in, he felt as if he had entered a Thunder Sea. Slowly, the entire Thunder Sea began to change, eventually transforming into a flickering Thunder Light sword. Then, the sword started to carve out mysterious trajectories, revealing a set of sword techniques he had never seen before. This sword technique fully illustrated Thunder's Realm, and Ren Pingsheng became completely immersed in it, losing track of time.
He didn't know how long it had been when he suddenly drew the sword and executed each move one by one. After three repetitions, suddenly the sword's momentum changed; with every strike, lightning flickered and thunder roared continuously. Finally, with one strike, he broke through the darkness and awakened from it.
"Ha... Is it over?" Ren Pingsheng regained his composure and looked at the pillar in front of him, whispering.
At that moment, recalling everything he had just experienced, he realized that this layer's trial tested Artistic Conception and comprehension; perhaps the main focus was comprehension because martial artists at this level must have already grasped Artistic Conception. Perhaps only by understanding the sword techniques within could one pass this stage!
"This sword technique is indeed powerful. After comprehending Thunder's Realm, I had not found a suitable sword technique. This sword technique is not low in rank and fits perfectly. Hmm? Thunder's Realm has actually made progress?" He was originally thinking about the sword technique when he inadvertently discovered that during his time inside, Thunder's Realm had actually comprehended three points.
At that moment, a white light enveloped him. He felt his body tighten and then disappeared, reappearing in the second layer.
"Oh, it seems I have passed the first layer. I just wonder what this layer's trial is?" Ren Pingsheng thought as he looked at the second layer. There were about three to four hundred martial artists here, significantly fewer than in the first layer. Perhaps as one ascends, there are fewer martial artists.
"Is this the trial for this stage?" He observed carefully and found that the martial artists on the second layer were all quietly sitting in a pool. The pool was filled with blue water that soaked their entire bodies.
However, their expressions were all different; some appeared calm while others showed pain and twisted faces. It seemed they were enduring great suffering; this pool likely held deeper significance.
"Ah..." Suddenly, a martial artist in the distance let out a terrible scream as his body began to turn to ashes bit by bit until he completely vanished—an eerie sight that sent chills down one's spine.
Before Ren Pingsheng could react, another martial artist from a different pool groaned and jumped out. However, his left arm was missing; yet compared to the person who vanished into thin air, he was much better off. At least he preserved his life before a flash of black light passed by and he too disappeared.
"Another failure; if you can't even endure such pain, what qualifications do you have to receive the legacy?" A voice echoed from somewhere nearby into Ren Pingsheng's ears.
"Pain? Trial? So that's how it is!" He murmured softly to himself before swiftly entering one of the pools. Immediately he felt a sharp pain all over his body; at that moment he realized that this was not water but rather transformed lightning. This was blue lightning turned into thunder water, containing boundless power of lightning within.
Inside, it felt as if one were in an endless Thunder Sea. However, this was far more terrifying than the Thunder Sea encountered before. This was azure Thunder, its power at least five times stronger than the previous white Thunder.
"Thunder water? Isn't it just the True Essence of the Lightning Attribute? It's just that no one here can withstand its terrifying destructive power; they can only struggle to resist and dare not absorb it. If I can absorb and refine it, not only would I temper my body, but I might also break through my cultivation."
Moments after entering the Thunder Sea, Ren Pingsheng felt a slight sting in his body but had no other discomfort. Suddenly, this thought emerged. His meridians, transformed by the Thunder Pearl and World-Ending Thunder, gave him confidence that he could withstand the erosion of Azure Lightning.
He was currently at the Intermediate Sect Level in cultivation, with decent realms and comprehension; the only thing lacking was the accumulation of True Essence. It should be noted that he possessed a Demon God Heart, which contained countless dense Demonic Energy. As long as he had time, his Demonic Path cultivation could continuously improve. However, True Essence posed some troubles. Now that this opportunity presented itself, he was unwilling to let it slip away.
Thinking of it, he immediately activated the Ancient Lan Divine Art and began to absorb the thunder water in the pool. Instantly, countless True Essences entered his body, but these True Essences were filled with Thunder. As they flowed into his meridians, he immediately felt a sharp pain as they violently damaged his meridians.
However, Ren Pingsheng's meridians had been transformed previously and were incredibly resilient. The Azure Lightning surged left and right but could not break through his meridians, causing only limited damage.
The liquid True Essence entered the Six-Colored Cyclone without any effort needed for refinement. After just one rotation, it merged into the True Essence Pool below. Originally only half full, the True Essence Pool visibly increased.
Meanwhile, not far from the Six-Colored Cyclone, the Black Annihilation Thunder trembled. The Azure Lightning that had entered Ren Pingsheng's body with the True Essence seemed to be summoned and all rushed into his Dantian, merging into the World-Ending Thunder.
This made Ren Pingsheng feel delighted; all worries vanished as he boldly continued to absorb the True Essence from the pool. The True Essence entering his body doubled; Azure Lightning merged into World-Ending Thunder while True Essence integrated into the True Essence Pool.
While others struggled against the onslaught of Thunder tests, Ren Pingsheng was refining and absorbing it. Time slowly passed; in a blink of an eye, two days had gone by. The azure True Essence in the pool showed no signs of diminishing. However, within Ren Pingsheng's Dantian, the True Essence Pool had risen significantly and was already more than half full.
At this moment, his cultivation had also advanced from Intermediate Sect Level to High-Level Zongji Jing. With the increase in True Essence, his strength saw considerable improvement.
