章 63: About Cultivation

Johnny had returned to his home. He forgets to give a Kendo Improvement Fluid to Mira, so before returning he gave it to her.

At first, he felt heartbroken after spending his rewards on others, but soon a notification rang on his brain, he felt enormously happy. He actually completed another hidden quest without any knowledge of it.

"Hidden Task- Completely Loyalty*1

Task Description- A sect can be betrayed, so disciples need to be loyal to the sect. A sect at least needs to have one single true loyal disciple. Gain the loyalty of your disciple for your sect.

Task Time- Before Establishment

Task Reward- Thunder Essence*1, Silver Sword Body Essence Refining Art*1, Thunder-Fire Spirit Matrix*1, Energy Gathering Matrix*1 and 5000 Sect Points.

Task Punishment- Task will be deleted"

"Hmm, rewards are a little low level but the task wasn't that hard either. It was just surprising, maybe." Johnny mumbled while entering the black stone space. He has made a habit to practice inside this space.

Johnny sat on the futon and puts his hand on his chin. During this time, he gained a lot of knowledge about cultivation, this continent, and the next upcoming battle. He mumbled "According to Natasha, all top fifty needs to fight against the Monster Beast Tide. It won't be an easy task, but rewards are good too."

"My rewards were canceled because I couldn't practice in the competition. There are still two weeks before the Monster Beasts Tide. In these two weeks, I can improve a lot. Although I miss my previous A.I., Angela has been doing a fine job especially explaining many new things to me."

"Cultivation is actually a process of refining energy into essence. Till now, I thought cultivation was the path we chose. But Cultivation only had three types; Essence Cultivation, Body Cultivation, and Soul Cultivation. Martial Path, Magic Path, Sword Path, these are just paths of cultivation, not cultivation itself."

"Essence Cultivation is the main cultivation while Body Cultivation and Soul Cultivation are auxiliary. But, some people chose Body Cultivation or Soul Cultivation as their base, making other types as auxiliary. Essence Cultivation refers to cultivating a source. The source of long-life or source of power, all of these come under Essence Cultivation."

"Body Cultivation is about tempering body. It is divided into two parts; one is Physical Strength and another is Physical Defense. Physical Strength refers to attack power, muscle mass, and blood energy. Physical Defense on other hand refers to body defense, endurance, and stamina. But both of them are connected with each other."

"My Chaos Bearing Elephant Art increases my Physical Strength but this also increases my body defense, endurance, and stamina but the quantity of improvement between these two is very different. If my physical strength is increased by ten pounds, then my defense would only be increased by one pound."

"On the other hand, Real Thunder Body Tempering Art is rather focused on Physical Defense. It tempers skin, bone, muscle, inner organs, and makes them tougher. Using this art, if my Physical Defense is increased by ten, then my physical strength would be increased by five. From this I can say, improving Physical Defense is a long-term plan while improving Physical Strength is short-term."

"Fortunately, my Real Thunder Body Tempering Art is at the second stage, and with a little effort, I can reach the third stage where I need to temper my body with real thunder. From previous rewards, I got thunder essence but I don't it will work or not?"

"I have eight Kendo Improvement Fluids, with that I should be able to improve myself on the sword. According to Angela, there are realms above Perfection with those Kendo Improvement Fluids and my Sword God Bloodline, I should be able to reach a new realm."

"I also need to push my Five Elements Spirit to perfection and then move towards the second layer. Once I reach the five-stage of Warrior Realm, I can get second-level rewards. But before that, I need to accomplish everything I have."

"I also need to cultivate those Battle Arts to the perfection especially Thunder Dragon Sacred Art and Four Saint Beast Battle Art. My bloodlines are very mysterious; I need to get to the depth of these mysteries slowly."

"I also have my talents, and I seriously need to practice those talents and check if I can merge my talents with my magic permanently. As for genes, I need to merge with them and increase my strength. I also have many new rewards to check."

"Well, let's go with Real Thunder Body Tempering Art." Finally, Johnny settled down his thinking, and run Real Thunder Body Tempering Art. He looked at system space and found thunder essence. This essence was in the shape of a ball, blue color ball. It was the size of a small marble.

Johnny didn't care about its size; the only thing he cared about was its ability. He swallowed the thunder essence, it slowly moves towards his abdomen. It was rumbling a little, but for now, he didn't see any problem. The thunder essence didn't meltdown immediately, so he used his mind sense to check it.

The moment his mind sense locked on that thunder essence, it began to sparkles the thunders inside his abdomen. "Boom" Then the next second, the thunder burst inside his abdomen, releasing an immense amount of energy. This energy was not something he could settle in his abdomen.

He quickly ran Dark Energy Absorption Art and controlled the flow of these energies into his meridians. It was quite painful because it took some time to transformed one-third of the energy from the thunder essence. As for the remaining two-third, they were still in the form of marble.

Thunder energy was revolving and spreading throughout his meridians, and he quickly dispersed Dark Energy Absorption Art and followed Real Thunder Body Tempering Art. To reach the third stage of Real Thunder Body Tempering Art, a cultivator needs to draw the energy of true thunder into his bones and limbs.

Tempering his bones and limps allows his body to become sturdy, and also enhances his physical defense. His current defense was around 0.1, which was ten percent of the golden ape body defense. Golden Ape is a mutated race of Ape that has the power of metal energy to refine its body.

Their skin is enough to block guns like AK-47 without moving a single drop of energy. From his current estimation, he can increase his defense by 0.2 if he reaches the third stage. At the perfection of the third stage, he might get the same defense as Golden Ape.

This is very scary, especially if this art is just the first volume. From the information he had gathered, Thunder Emperor Scripture created by Thunder Emperor is divided into four volumes. The first volume could be found everywhere. The second volume can also be found everywhere but requires a lot of money since it is frequently found in an auction.

If it was any other person, he would be angry to death after hearing the auction of his own creation, but the thunder emperor didn't mind. The third volume could only be practiced by Inner-Court students of Power Training Camp. As for the final volume, only those who are acknowledged by the thunder emperor can get a chance to burrow it.

This was also very problematic because for the third volume and the fourth volume, it would be really painful to get his hands on them. After all, he has already decided to create his sect, how can he join Power Training Camp.

He is planning to do more research about it, but for now, his bones and limbs are getting fried under the tempering of thunder essence. He was quite shocked about it, because each time his bones get damaged, they also get repaired by thunder itself.

He remembered the difference between thunder and lightning. For a normal person, thunder means the loud rumbling sound of lightning. But in the world of cultivation, thunder means the destruction part of lightning.

Lightning is called a Holy Judgment, and only those with the power of lightning can be called a god. He knows a little bit about this from Thunder Dragon Sacred Art. Thunder destroys, it doesn't heal but Thunder Scripture of thunder emperor has the little meaning of lightning itself.

This means the thunder emperor understands lightning. But this made him frown because from the introduction of Thunder Dragon Sacred Art, he knows even gods can't control lightning, and even for them, it is a life-time opportunity to understand lightning.

This discovery made Johnny startled. His view about the thunder emperor broaden a lot, he finally understood why this guy was called The Strongest Human Emperor on Earth. A Martial Magician Emperor with the understanding of lightning, he can bring terror even to the lands of the galaxy.

At this moment, Johnny really wanted to meet the thunder emperor but it is wishful thinking at least for now. Inside his body, his bones and limbs were connecting and disconnecting, breaking and fixing, destroying and healing. Finally, when one-third of the thunder essence was completely consumed, his body was covered with thunder itself.
