Chapter 666 - 269: Thunder Skill and Kin
After the departure of the Various Tribe Masters, Lei Wanche of the Giant Wilderness Bo Division remained, summoned personally by the Grand Elder of Punishment.
Lei Wanche was somewhat bewildered, as he realized that the Grand Elder of Punishment intended for him to join the Punishment Team.
"Archer, restrain your nature, you are the hope of our Giant Wilderness Bo Division to reach Tier Five within thousands of years."
Lord Giant Wilderness advised Lei Wanche.
Yet Lei Wanche’s face showed no trace of emotion.
This prompted a sigh from Lord Giant Wilderness, "No matter what, the Giant Wilderness Bo Division is your home, you are my own grandson, some matters cannot be changed by an old man like me."
Seeing Lei Wanche still ignoring him, Lord Giant Wilderness waved his hand, "Go on, don’t let the Grand Elder of Punishment wait too long."
Lei Wanche’s demeanor was something he had grown accustomed to, for there was no choice but to accept it.
If it were not for the ties of blood, perhaps Lei Wanche would have long been unrestrained.
"Remember, you carry the blood of the Giant Wilderness Lei Clan."
As Lei Wanche walked away, Lord Giant Wilderness couldn’t help but speak up.
"Don’t forget to visit your mother."
These words caused Lei Wanche’s steps to pause momentarily.
Soon, he leaped onto a Flying Ship outside, heading towards the distant horizon.
"Return to the Clan Division, summon Clan Soldiers, and remember the Jade Scroll I gave you, only read it after leaving here."
Lord Giant Wilderness watched Lei Wanche depart, his gaze fluctuating for a long time before finally looking towards Clan Elder Lei Yun.
Lei Yun nodded, as the Lord, acting as Execution Elder, was unable to leave the Blazing Flame Bo Division for the time being.
However, according to the alliance’s agreement, each division must summon Clan Soldiers, thus Lei Yun needed to return to the Giant Wilderness Bo Division immediately.
...
"Elder Lei, we have arrived."
The Flying Ship landed on an unremarkable small mountain, and Lei Wanche glanced at the winding steps before choosing to ascend them.
Upon reaching the mountaintop, a youth-like figure looked towards him beneath a gnarled old tree.
Screech!
The Cloud Thunder Wild Eagle stiffened its entire bird body, flipped over completely, legs up, with its body sparking and crackling.
While close to Lei Wanche, he felt as though the person’s eyes reflected a realm of sun, moon, and stars, deep and boundless.
"Lei Wanche pays respects to Elder."
Lei Wanche hurriedly bowed and greeted.
This was also the Tier Five Elder famed among the Tribe Masters.
"The postnatal transformed Thunder Body, fused with Wild Eagle bloodline, pure aura, though at late-stage Divine Treasure, its combat power directly reaches the Peak of Divine Treasure."
"Your thunder aura doesn’t match with your cultivated technique, yet you have cultivated to such a level, nowhere in Yongyi can compare."
The avatar spoke, Lei Wanche’s nature, not only in Yongyi but also extremely rare across the north and south of the Giant Mountain Range.
Despite Blazing Flame’s recent burst of talent, none can rival Lei Wanche’s nature.
Some are just genuinely lucky.
"Although your body has undergone postnatal thunder transformation, it hasn’t been completely transformed. Cultivating for years trying to develop a Thunder Skill to perfect your body’s transformation, yet avenues were elusive causing Celestial Vein and Divine Treasure to fracture."
Lei Wanche lowered his head, astonished at being seen through so easily, even his attempts to perfect his Thunder Body were recognized.
Is this the strength of a Tier Five Elder!
"Half a Thunder Pattern? Seems your nature is quite significant."
At this moment, the avatar’s words caused Lei Wanche’s heart to tremble.
The Thunder Pattern on his spine is his most critical secret.
"You carry considerable suppressed energy. Thunder Skill emphasizes unyielding momentum, unmatched power, you are held back."
"Elder, with your insightful judgement, indeed I am filled with resentment, constrained by external trifles."
Lei Wanche took a deep breath, speaking, "Junior seeks Elder’s guidance."
"Meeting you is destiny. Besides being the Grand Elder of Punishment for the Tribe Alliance, I am also the Guardian Elder of the Blazing Flame Bo Division, willing to accept you as a registered disciple."
The avatar spoke, disciple acceptance wasn’t a sudden thought but previously contemplated.
The avatar cultivates what could be called the Martial Dao, taking disciples from Blazing Flame Headquarters Division and other divisions with exceptional talent is more than sufficient.
Besides, with the true self behind, what Martial Dao can’t be taught?
"Registered disciple?"
Lei Wanche was stunned, unexpectedly being accepted by a Tier Five Elder.
Though a registered disciple, it feels more like a test to him, as for a Tier Five accepting a Tier Four disciple, is the one-tier difference worth considering?
It certainly is, although at Tier Four Late Stage, not only stalled at Tier Five, even the advancement to Tier Four Peak is halted.
His path requires a Thunder Dao Technique, but he can’t develop one.
With this realization, Lei Wanche bowed deeply, "Lei Wanche, pays respect to Teacher."
"Coos."
The previously petrified Wild Eagle emitted a pigeon-like sound.
Its Spiritual Wisdom is high, having mingled among the Human Race for years, naturally understanding the implications of disciple acceptance.
The avatar glanced at the Wild Eagle, scaring it into retracting its neck.
"Let me examine your injuries."
The avatar beckoned Lei Wanche to approach.
"Activate the technique you are currently cultivating."
Upon hearing, Lei Wanche sat cross-legged, beginning the technique activation. He is currently cultivating a technique called Fire Ash Skill.
In pursuit of cultivating Thunder Skill, he explored many places in Yongyi, attempted numerous techniques, eventually feeling cultivation of Fire Element Technique could barely suffice.
The collision of Fire Element and Gold Element, deriving Thunder Element, Shen Can long deduced this point, though didn’t deduce the Great Wilderness Thunder Skill, but that’s just lack of physical reference!
One cannot simply grasp lightning to comprehend Thunder Skill, that would be too cruel to himself, he doesn’t bear the surname Yang.
