Magic and Martial War God

Chapter 64: Big problem

Just like thunder mana, real thunder energy was emerging out of his fist. He really wanted to test this out but this wasn't to increase his strength but to increase his defense. He can feel his bones have been strengthened a lot.

But the two-third of thunder essence was still left in his body. It took him six hours to completely reach the third stage, which means twelve hours outside. He had enough time, so he sucks out thunder essence to his meridians.

Thunder Essence was giving him a tingling feeling especially at first, but this tingling feeling slowly changed into horrific pain. His bones were strengthened, not his pain-bearing capability. With such pain, he cried to relieve it.

Running the Real Thunder Body Tempering Art, all of that thunder essence in his meridians began to impact his bones and limbs again. The third stage was divided into Beginner, Entry, Small Accomplishment, Great Accomplishment, and Perfection, just like previous stages of cultivation arts stages.

But here, Beginner and Entry represent his Bones and Limbs. The Small Accomplishment represents his muscles. The Great Accomplishment represents his skin; finally, the Perfection represents his inner organs.

This time, he let his mind sense accompany the process of refinement. The thunder essence strikes his bones like a hammer striking iron. Every time it strikes his bones breaks causing him immense pain. Finally, his mind sense found something very intriguing.

He found the bones here sucking some kind of energy due to the impact of thunder essence. This energy was not coming from the thunder essence, instead of from his own body cells. Only this moment, he found something horrible.

The energy was light green in color, and when that energy merges with his bones, it began to repair his bones. At this moment, he had a terrible thought that he wanted to deny but couldn't deny at all. He used his mind sense and spoke "Angela! Calculate my life span quickly."

Soon in his mind since he found a new panel. This panel actually represented his life span.

'Lifespan- One hundred Years and Six months'

He didn't check this again for few minutes. He calmly continued his actions. His bones and limbs were getting stronger with this process. The process of destroying and healing his body. Soon after two hours, he checked his lifespan again.

'Lifespan- One hundred Years and three months'

After the next three hours

'Lifespan- One hundred Years'

"Damn, how can I be stupid? Even the creator of Thunder Dragon Sacred Art couldn't comprehend lightning, not to mention the thunder emperor who just started his cultivation a hundred and fifty years ago. This is not a body tempering but a slow poison."

"Now I understand why he opened this art to everyone. Although I reached the beginner realm of the third stage, more than a year's lifespan has been wasted by it. Damn, originally with Giant and Elf race talents, my lifespan should be above one hundred and fifty but I didn't even know this side effect before I gain those talents."

"That means my life span had decreased a lot before I gain their talents. Fortunately, because of my right choice, I earned enough lifespan for myself. This is a big problem. No wait, I don't think their talent could increase my lifespan, right?"

"Although I have their talents, I don't have their blood. Their genes are carried by their blood, of course by cells or to be exact by chromosomes. So I don't think their talent has anything to do it this."

"But then what is maintaining my lifespan. And what is maintaining the thunder emperor lifespan?" The more Johnny remembers, the angrier he gets. He was feeling angry because with so many clues he couldn't find it before.

He already knew comprehending lightning is not something even a god can do. So how can a mortal try to defy those rules? But he can't deny the fact thunder emperor practiced this art and he is still alive and kicking.

He learned if a person consumes his own lifespan, his potential in cultivation will gradually decrease. For current cultivation, it may not be a hassle but once you reach a higher realm, your potential plays a big role to overcome the bottleneck that keeps people in a single realm forever.

At first, he thought it has something to do with those talents but he later denied this idea. Now, he had a big question mark on his head. Suddenly in his mind, Angela spoke "Do Host wants to use System Search to find everything about the Thunder Emperor?"

"Can you do that?" Johnny asked in surprise. In his impression, information of others can only be found with some source such as blood. But he doesn't have any source of the thunder emperor.

"Yes, Angela has complete knowledge over the current situation of this planet earth. But it consumes sect points?" Angela spoke with no emotions, but her tone had a little pride on it.

"Of course, what do I expect?" Johnny made a helpless smile when he heard about sect points. He can feel this system completely works on sect points just like Primal Chaos Celestial Dao Stone which works on chaotic points.

'If you want to gain something, you need to lose something. Everything has a positive and negative aspect, even energy is the same. That means nothing is impossible in our life, but that also comes with a price. The higher the risk or gain, the higher the price of loss. Johnny, from now you need to think of the consequences of everything you do.'

Johnny was suddenly enlightened to be specific, he realized this truth. And this was an eternal truth; after all, you gain something by losing something. Nothing in this world is free, everything costs at least something.

"Congratulation Host for completing the Hidden Task"

"Hidden Task- Realize the Truth

Task Description- A cultivation is about refining essence, but comprehension is about understanding the truth. Without truth in your heart, how can you walk forward towards the end of cultivation? Realize the truth of life, and complete this task

Task Limit- For lifetime

Task Reward- War God Essence (Earth Rank), 5000 Sects Points

Task Punishment- No"

"I really didn't expect to complete a hidden task just by realizing the truth. Hmm, now I see these tasks related to the life experience of a sect and myself. This time a reward was little less, but at least better nothing." Johnny scratched his head in surprise.

"So now, should I continue practicing Real Thunder Body Tempering Art or not? By the way, let Angela find information about him then I can continue." Johnny waited since he had already agreed to her. Soon, after two minutes a notification rang in his mind and a panel appeared in front of him.

'Barren Roger (Thunder Emperor)

Cultivation- above Emperor Realm (Can't determine)

Cultivation Art- Heavenly Thunder Scripture (Self-Made), Eternal Life Art (Incomplete)

Bloodline- Thunder Giant Bloodline

Divine Path- Warrior (Magic and Martial Path)"

"Holy fuck, he is above Emperor Realm. Are you seriously kidding me? But what's with this incomplete art? Fuck, this word eternal means immortality, right? Does this mean he had a cultivation art to increase his lifespan? No wonder he could create such art." Johnny couldn't help but curse.

Although Johnny didn't know anything about Eternal Life Art, just two words 'Eternal' and 'Life' tells everything. He was nave but he wasn't dumb. But suddenly, Angela's voice rang in his brain.

"Detected the complete version of Eternal Life Art in system store, would you to check?"

"What? You have the complete version of Eternal Life Art. Wait, it is in the system store which means it'll definitely cost. Judging from the domineering words, it will definitely cost a lot. But then again, looking at this art won't cost, right?" Johnny mumbled in low voice.

"It takes hundred sect points to look at the complete version introduction. Would you like to continue?" Angela's cold voice rang in his brain.

"Fuck, you got to be kidding me. Hundred sect points just to look at the introduction, Angela you are ripping me off." Johnny shouted and bad-mouth her.

"It takes hundred sect points to look at the complete version introduction. Would you like to continue?" Angela's cold voice rang in his brain.

"Alright, but before showing me the store functions, also some every categorization of everything you have. List them from high price to low, also show me every categorization in a different panel." Johnny sighed with a knife piercing his heart.

After getting so many benefits from those tasks, he understood this system definitely has great products. But he also realized the truth about gain and loss. He doesn't want to bicker too much with Angela over the sect points.

Of course, he was definitely pissed off when she charged hundred sect points just to read the introduction. But soon, he reads the products shown in the panels. He didn't even complete a single panel before he stood up.

He took out his sword and swore "Black stone, don't you dare encourage me to stop doing those tasks. As a sect master of the supreme sword sect, it is my duty to perform the tasks given by Angela and I'm eternally grateful for her tasks. I, Johnny Fenton swore on the name of my bloodline I'll take the Supreme Sword Sect to the top of the Universe."

Black Stone "......"

At this moment

In somewhere around the unknown place, there was a Giant Golden Dragon flying with a majestic aura. There were some people sitting over the Giant Golden Dragon, among them, a youth in golden clothes was sitting at the middle cross-legged. Suddenly, he sneezes "Achoo"

Near him, a beautiful young lady glanced at him and asked "Brother Fei, did you catch a cold?"

"Do you think I can catch a cold?" The youth name Fei looked at the beautiful young lady and asked in a funny tone, and then he mumbled "Is that little guy cursing at his bloodline?"

"Dad, are you talking about the second brother? Hehe, I forget mentioned uncle Zhen and I have completed your task. So father, can I go meet the second brother now?" Another youth holding grass in his mouth excitedly asked clinging into the youth name Fei's cloth.

"If you can cross a hundred universes, meet your second brother, and come back before the birth of your third brother, you can indeed go." The youth name Fei just smiled and answered his son.

"Humph, why don't you directly refuse me rather than giving me hope?" The youth pouted and looked at another lady. She was also equally beautiful but her stomach was big, enough to indicate her pregnancy.

Then he looked at the black space and murmured "The second brother be sure to make stronger enemies. So that when we meet, I can save you and play the role of big brother."
