254 THE LIGHTNING CHILD

The Lightning child had a past which was wrapped in mystery. He was a cultivator who appeared out of nowhere and created a commotion in the central plains. It was said that he came from a grand background and was found by the grand elder while he was travelling. Although there were many theories around the world, the most popular one was him being the inheritor of the grand elder’s friend.

The major reason behind the commotion and popularity of his name was his cultivation speed and strength. When he first entered the academy, he had to go through the same trials as the disciples who appeared in the entrance examination. It was soon found out what a monster he was.

The grand elder invited all the high-ranking officials within the Thunder Academy along with many dignitaries from nearby forces to view the examination. The highest rank ever achieved in an official match-up was 9 incense stick. The record was held by the third disciple of the Dean, who scored a whopping 12 and a half sticks.

Thunderchild came in and swooped the title by sustaining the altar’s energy for a whopping 13 incense stick times. Every single force within the neighbourhood was alarmed by his talent. While at the Qi general level, he managed to break multiple records within the competition. It was said that he managed to comprehend the first two volumes of Lightning devil art before breaking through the Qi King level and even managed to grasp the first volume of Strikes of Thunderous palms.

Taking into notice the monstrous performance of the boy, the assembly of elders decided to invest a huge number of resources into training him. Some even say that the Grand elder allowed him to use his own cultivation cave while breaking through the King level. The commotion caused during his breakthrough set another record.

It was a known fact that establishing a heavenly law was quite a difficult task. It requires a huge number of resources of a particular category to establish a single law. When everyone heard the accomplishment of Thunder Child in cultivating the two arts, everyone simply assumed that he was going for the establishment of Heavenly Thunder law.

When the day finally arrived, another astonishing view appeared in front of everyone within the Thunder Academy. The first law to be established was thunder. Thunder child managed to establish a heavenly Thunder law and accepted the Heavenly energy. Just when everyone thought that it was the end, another phenomenon took place. Another light ray fell on the ground, carrying its immense amount of fire energy.

This was related to the establishment of Heavenly fire law. Two Heavenly laws simultaneously, both being extreme attack types. Two Heavenly laws should already be the limit of a cultivator, but Thunder child didn’t stop there, he also managed to establish an array of earthen laws which included water, earth, sword, and body.

2 Heavenly laws and 4 Earthen laws, this was a huge record within the Thunder Academy, which only a chosen few could attain. When the upper echelon learned about these accomplishments, they officially entitled him with the title of thunder. He soon became one of the core inheritors of the academy and was allowed to train with the blessed lands of the academy.

.....

What came as even more of a surprise was the fact that he managed to climb up the level of cultivation quite fast. Within a simple stretch of two years, he was already at the advance level of Qi King. When he finally appeared in front of the world, he took upon a disaster level mission and managed to accomplish it, returning with an upgraded cultivation base.

No one has seen him since then. Some even assumed that he managed to set foot into the emperor realm and is now slowly rising the ranks of emperors, preparing for a special occasion to appear once again.

......................

“How powerful is he now?”

“No one knows for sure. He had already stepped into the 9th level of QI King when he entered seclusion to break-through into the emperor level. If my assumptions are true, his cultivation must have upgraded to emperor level already. He is a contender for that event after all.”

“How could his cultivation speed increase by such amount?”

“Since you have managed to connect with the Heavenly laws, I hope you understand the powerful blessing it brings with itself?” The old man asked.

“We do know of the power it brings with it. It is one of the reasons Heavenly laws are sought after. If you manage to connect with a Heavenly law, your cultivation base will breakthrough directly into the peak of Initial QI King.”

“Thunder Child managed to connect with two Heavenly laws simultaneously. How big would his blessing be?”

“Does master know about his cultivation level just after break-through?”

“He directly stepped into the 4th level of Qi King and his preparation managed to boost his cultivation level to the fifth stage. When he finally ended his break-through, he was already at the fifth stage of Qi King. As per the cultivation speed, it is due to the pair of Heavenly laws he possesses. None of you would be able to match his speed with any external assistance.”

“There also remains the part that Grand elder is also helping with his cultivation with a lot of external forces.”

“Has he stepped into the Emperor realm master?”

“He has.” The old man replied.” You two should concentrate on preparing yourself for that event. It is going to be held in 3 years, and this time, every single monster within the Emperor’s realm will participate in it.”

“We are confident with our strength, master.”

“If I were to comment on your strength, you are just newbies within the emperor realm. You wouldn’t be able to fight for the top 1000 spots in the fight.”

“Isn’t master hyping up the situation too much?”

“You are not aware of the number of monsters within the central plains. Even thunder child is like a common occurrence within the ranks of Qi Emperors. Some old monsters have even broken their own cultivation path to try and reforge it just for this event. You should concentrate on cultivation as of now. We can talk about these things later.”

“What about the fifth brother master?”

“He is trying to walk on a dangerous path, and if he succeeds the amount of fortune, he might score is too big. We could only keep him away from Thunder child’s influence and wait for his break-through. If he succeeds, he might just become the most titanic figure to have ever originated with the Thunder Academy.”

................................

Thunder Child’s cultivation cave-

“Is master certain that the old bastard has leapt this new guy?”

“The old man was fortunate enough to be roaming around the academy at the same time. He must have seen Li Meng’s talent and grabbed the opportunity to have him as his disciple.”

“Is the boy really that talented?” Thunder Child had an arrogant demeanour.

“Do you remember your record in the altar of punishment?”

“13 incense stick.”

“The brat managed to sustain for 19 incense sticks. Do you still doubt his talent?” The grand elder spoke up.

The Thunder child opened his eyes in surprise. It was certainly a monstrous performance. He calmed himself down and spoke up. “It would just mean that his body cultivation is that high. It doesn’t prove his overall talent.”

“What if I said that he managed to comprehend both the beginner volumes of Strike of Thunderous fists.” The Thunder Child was stumped into silence for a moment.

“It means that he manages to gain that guy’s inheritance and also has the idea about the various laws required to practice it to the peak.” The Thunder Child immersed in his own thoughts.

“Did the master try to fetch him into our camp?”

“I already said that the bastard has taken action and isolated him from the surrounding area. He must have gone through the disciple acceptance ceremony already. We could only wait till he came out of seclusion to make any type of contact.”

“A single opponent was already making my head spin out and another monster appear out of nowhere. I think we will have to see how this junior performs in his break-through. If he exceeds my imagination, I will do everything in my power to get him to our side.”

“If he doesn’t come to this site, then we can only eliminate a future threat to our plans.”

A sinister plot was being devised to take care of Li Meng. Unknown to all these undercurrents, He was sitting within his cultivation cave, preparing for his breakthrough into the Qi King level.

...........................

Crimson Lord world-

“The day of reckoning is getting closer. Although we have managed to prepare a huge number of resources, we should also try and find some blessed lands to have you break-through in.”

“Isn’t the Crimson Lord artefact the best place to carry out the break-through?”

“The number of avatars stationed within this place has already exceeded the amount which could be properly propelled. You need to collect more resources or find multiple blessed lands to carry out the break-through in.”
