C18 – The Exchange of Lightning
After relaxing in the hot spring for half an hour, Wang Shan heard Jiaxia’s warning, “Young Master, the sky is suddenly filled with dark clouds. It looks like a storm is brewing. The lightning at Cloud City Mountain is quite intimidating. We should seek shelter.”
Wang Shan nodded in agreement, “You head back to the room first, I’ll come find you all shortly.”
He sent the five girls away and gazed at the sky by himself.
The sky was heavy with dark clouds, lightning snaking through them.
He anticipated an imminent storm.
“Last time, I exchanged all the water in the bath for the Heaven Rank High Grade Water Condensing Arts. I wonder if I can exchange something this time.”
Wang Shan was known for his daring ideas.
The greater the risk, the bigger the potential reward!
He gripped Jiaxia’s iron hairpin tightly in his hand.
The clouds grew denser, the sound of thunder rolling in the distance.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning burst from the long-oppressed clouds.
With a steely expression, Wang Shan held the iron hairpin aloft.
Moreover, these techniques were exceedingly rare and prohibitively expensive.
In the marketplace, the majority of available techniques were of the Low Grade Human Rank. Just purchasing a Low Grade Human Rank Thunder Condensing Arts would set one back 200,000 gold coins—a sum beyond the reach of an average family.
Wang Shan’s High Grade Earth Rank Thunder Condensing Arts, however, were not even available for purchase in the market.
Usually, such esteemed techniques would be safeguarded in the Scripture Pavilion by prominent families, treasured as a legacy of top-tier cultivation methods.
“The Eternal Flood Dragon Bloodline truly is formidable. It’s remarkable that I can cultivate two distinct types of techniques simultaneously without any adverse reaction from my body!”
Wang Shan was in awe because each person possessed different elemental attributes.
The known attributes for cultivation were water, fire, lightning, and wind.
Cultivators were meant to select a technique that matched their own attribute. Deviating from this rule could lead to severe physical strain.
Mismanagement of this could be fatal.
Individuals like Wang Shan, capable of practicing two disparate techniques like the Water Condensing Arts and the Thunder Condensing Arts concurrently, were exceedingly rare.
“Young Master, are you alright?”
The five girls rushed out to check on Wang Shan as soon as they heard the thunder.
Seeing him unharmed, they collectively breathed a sigh of relief.
They also noticed the electricity dancing around Wang Shan’s body, causing his hair to stand on end. From a distance, he bore a striking resemblance to an ancient Thunder God.
