Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Taking a deep breath, without any hesitation, Ning Qi continues to dive downward.

No matter what secrets lie there, they are beyond his reach for now, so it's best to stay away.

Returning the same way.

Ning Qi lands atop a mountain peak.

He feels a bit regretful.

This journey to High Heaven couldn't completely comprehend the secrets of the Heavenly Thunder Blade; he has to wait for a rainy day.

He is thinking of returning to True Martial Mountain.

Yet his mind is perceptive.

Ning Qi looks up at the sky, seeing clouds gathering above in the night, with waves of energy brewing. After a moment, thunder roars, shaking the heavens and pouring rain down.

He feels something strange in his heart.

"Is it caused by my earlier venture into High Heaven?"

But he feels it's unlikely.

In some sense, this is like finding a silver lining in the dark.

In a twist, Ning Qi sets aside distractions.

Sitting cross-legged atop the mountain peak in emptiness, with the Heavenly Thunder Blade on his lap, he closes his eyes, beginning to earnestly comprehend; this rare opportunity must be seized.

Roaring!

A blinding thunderbolt breaks through the night sky, striking the mountain peak, shattering rocks, and trembling the mountain.

Then another similarly blinding thunderbolt strikes, hitting Ning Qi's body.

But compared to the thunder Ning Qi experienced atop High Heaven, it is 'gentler.'

A cyan glow appears on his skin, easily blocking it, leaving only wisps of lightning continually flickering on his surface.

The Heavenly Thunder Blade on his leg keeps vibrating, with waves of special energy emanating out.

Thunderbolts are drawn in, Ning Qi does not deliberately guide them, allowing them to strike him. He can fully withstand such a degree, not out of a masochistic tendency, but to more directly feel the Heavenly Thunder Blade's transformation.

Ning Qi's mind floods like a waterfall with spiritual light, constantly surging.

Recent comprehension is continually emerging.

"The Cyan Profound Treasure Armor's strong defense is due to its unique material, similarly, the Heavenly Thunder Blade's ability to draw thunder stems from its material, which becomes more apparent during thunderous weather. If catalyzed with thunderous power, it will be even more evident..."

"The Heavenly Thunder Blade's material changes upon encountering thunder, forming small 'units,' which can be regarded as 'Qimen Array,' and are interrelated, which is the essence of its thunder-drawing ability..."

"If I can simulate these 'units' with Gang Qi, I can achieve the same effect, even further, drawing, amplifying, manipulating thunder... This power can be used in many areas, martial arts, body forging, arrays, artifact refining, alchemy..."

Ning Qi continuously perceives the changes in the Heavenly Thunder Blade and incoming thunderbolts.

Meanwhile.

The Jade Liquid Sea shakes; streams of Gang Qi circulate and gather, Ning Qi uses his body as a test ground, aiming to replicate the Heavenly Thunder Blade's special qualities.

He has a premonition that this time he will reap great rewards; the created secret technique can benefit many aspects.

Unknown how long has passed.

Rumble!

Another thunderbolt strikes.

Ning Qi opens his eyes, revealing joy.

He forcibly suppressed the Heavenly Thunder Blade's effect with Gang Qi, meaning this thunder just now was drawn by his Gang Qi simulation.

Success!

All that's left now is optimization.

"This technique can draw thunder from the sky; it shall be named the Heavenly Thunder Technique."

The Heavenly Thunder Technique can be applied in many places.

Ning Qi is eager to try.

He stands tall within the void, Gang Qi circulating; he holds the Heavenly Thunder Blade, Gang Qi and the blade simultaneously vibrating at a special frequency, drawing a large wave of thunder, far more terrifying than before. This time Ning Qi consciously controls it, the thunder does not strike him, but is instead converted mid-air into controllable thunderous power.

Ning Qi swings the blade.

The Thunder Dragon Blade Qi roars fiercely, turning a mountain into dust under the combined effect of thunder and blade Qi.

This movement is terrifying even beneath the night sky's thunder.

Ning Qi is very satisfied.

This is merely the martial arts application of the Heavenly Thunder Technique.

His painstaking effort wasn't in vain.

Ning Qi puts away the Heavenly Thunder Blade, feeling perceptive, glancing into the distance, raising an eyebrow, then silently disappearing.

Moments later.

Two figures fly through the air, landing atop the mountain peak where Ning Qi once stood. Observed carefully, surprisingly a pair of twin sisters carrying long spears, both with round faces, delicate appearance, seeming very young, but their Celestial Human Realm cultivation exposes their true age is not so young.

At this moment.

Both have expressions full of amazement, looking at the mountain turned to dust, speechless for a long time.

"If I didn't know Thunder Shock Blade Venerate couldn't appear here, I would really think this was his doing," the older sister whispered.

The younger sister shakes her head:

"No, this unknown strong person is even stronger than Thunder Shock Blade Venerate!"

The older sister exclaims:

"But on the Celestial Being List, there's no second unparalleled expert proficient in the Path of Thunderous and Blade Path."

"The world is vast, strong people hidden are countless. Unexpectedly, we sisters encountered one; we don't know whether to say this luck is good or bad."

The younger sister adds:

"Fortunately, that strong person has left; otherwise, if we offended him, it wouldn't be good. We shouldn't have come here before, all because sister's curiosity is too strong, don't forget our mission."

The older sister sticks out her tongue:

"I thought it was just thunder falling, who knew it was a strong person practicing blade here."

"Let's go, curiosity satisfied, let's hurry to True Martial Mountain. The Prince attaches great importance to True Martial Mountain, having us specially escort the highest level secret message; don't know what's inside, seems quite thick."

The younger sister immediately sternly rebukes:

"Stop! Your thought is very dangerous!"

The older sister quickly says:

"I'm just curious. The Prince's grace is as heavy as a mountain; how could I act recklessly?"

The younger sister's expression somewhat eases, no more words.

Both head towards True Martial Mountain through the space.
