Chapter 159 Encirclemen (1/2)

Seven days had already passed since the battle between Zhou Yuan and Xiao Tianxuan. During these seven days, the Saint Remains Domain gradually began boiling with activity. More and more opportunities were appearing in the form of various mystical areas where anyone who could successfully enter would obtain some pretty good blessings or gifts.

Over the past few days, news had already spread of several lucky individuals obtaining various blessings, allowing them to be completely reborn, their originally mediocre strength leaping into the sky, transforming them into elites even amongst the many prided geniuses.

This caused the eyes of countless geniuses to burn with excitement and anticipation. For a time, searching for these mystical places became the most sought after dream of everyone here.

Of course, this naturally led to numerous intense battles from which some geniuses were able to distinguish themselves, making their names resound loudly across the Saint Remains Domain.

Included amongst them was Zhou Yuan who had defeated Xiao Tianxuan…

However, when compared to Yaoyao, all of them appeared insignificant. Till today, only her name alone could be seen on the Saint Tablet.

It was clear as day that achieving the so-called distinguished battle accomplishment was not easy at all.

As such, everyone put theirs energy and time into training, killing many Genesis Beasts to raise their strength as fast as possible. Only then would they raise their chances of being acknowledged by the tablet.

Zhou Yuan was of the same mind.

While hunting Genesis Beasts to raise his strength, he kept a lookout for any stormy areas, because only in a thunderstorm would he be able to initiate himself into the little Heaven Genesis technique, Great Wind and Thunder.

His search eventually led him to an appropriate location.

...

Rumble!

It was a barren land where mountains gathered together in groups, their tall peaks piercing the clouds. No trees could be found on these mountains, their bare appearance making the place look rather desolate.

Thunderclouds were present at the peaks of these mountains all year round, the endlessly rumbling thunder filling the area.

Zhou Yuan currently stood on one of these majestic mountains. The top of the mountain was immersed in thunderclouds, surrounded by ominous black in which lightning madly flashed a flickered. It was a sight that would make one's heart jump and flesh tremble.

However, Zhou Yuan's face was overflowing with joy. This was the best place to master the Great Wind and Thunder technique.

”Finally found it after so many days.” Zhou Yuan sighed. He would surely master the technique here.

Once he did, his battle power would rise once again.

He sat down on the mountain peak, and gradually began to fall into a state of concentration. The rumbling thunder that filled the area seemed to gradually fade away into the background.

A complex and profound intonation slowly flowed into his mind. It was the cultivation method of the Great Wind and Thunder technique.

”Feel the wind, feel the lightning, infuse your Genesis Qi, converge into a mark…”

It was a long time later before Zhou Yuan's eyes slowly opened. He closed his hand as the lightning rod stone appeared within it. The black stone slowly rose into the air, ultimately hovering some distance above his head.

Zhou Yuan began to pour Genesis Qi into the stone, immediately causing a peculiar cry of thunder to faintly echo from its many holes.

Rumble!

The wind and lightning in the vicinity began to move as if being beckoned by something. With a loud boom, a foot long lightning bolt struck the lightning rod stone.

The stone trembled as it absorbed the lightning. After which, lightning began spouting out if its many holes, bombarding Zhou Yuan's body.

Zhou Yuan's body immediately began to shake, the flesh all over his body squirming as intense pain pulsed from the surface of his body.

Zhou Yuan grimaced in pain, but resolutely gritted his teeth as he endured.

Only by experiencing wind and lightning attacks would the body gradually grow accustomed to them, allowing one to gain a better understanding of their nature and properties and eventually create a wind thunder mark on one's body.

A little Heaven Genesis technique was profoundly powerful, an existence far beyond the realm of Black tier techniques. Hence why the method to learn one was even stranger and difficult.

”It is fortunate that I have this lightning rod stone that can continuously absorb wind and lightning. Or the process would be much slower.” Muttered Zhou Yuan to himself.

Rumble!
