Chapter 199 - Events From A Long Time Ago (Unedited)

Lei Yu was a bit scared by his reaction and repeated: “I… I’m twenty-five years old this year.”

“When did you start cultivating?” Lei Rong Kun asked.

Lei Yu didn’t hesitate because the whole story was something that was impossible for him to forget. “Accurately speaking, it should be when I was eighteen years old. I was eighteen when I received the lightning brand and the cultivation method.” Lei Yu wasn’t planning on hiding anything. Even though he didn’t quite believe this guy was the third generation’s Patriarch, one thing without a doubt was that this guy was extremely strong, so there wasn’t any need to deceive him.

“Genius! Genius! You merely spent seven years and have reached your current strength; you’re a rarely seen genius!” Lei Rong Kun’s mood was very excited. “You should know, the only time such a genius talent appeared like yours was our Lei Sect’s second generation Patriarch. I never would have expected that today, another person like him has appeared! This is such a fortune for our Lei Sect! Such a good fortune!”

Perhaps another such genius had appeared before and it was only that Lei Rong Kun who had locked himself in the forbidden grounds didn’t know about.

“Old… Old Ancestor, why are you in this place?” Lei Yu asked.

“We’ll talk about this later. Tell me, why is that your lightning energy is the color purple? Also, how did you obtain the Heavenly Thunder Manual?” Lei Rong Kun appeared to be really concerned about these two matters.

“Heavenly Thunder Manual? What’s that?” Lei Yu asked.

“It’s the method you’ve been cultivating! Could it be that you don’t know its name?” Lei Rong Kun asked.

Lei Yu shook his head, “I never knew what it was called, and also I don’t know how I obtained it. As for why my lightning energy is purple, no one has ever told me why. I remember back then I had lost conscious and when I woke up, I had all of these.” Lei Yu helplessly smiled, he actually gave the method a name of “Lei Yu’s Cultivation Method.” So it’s originally called Heavenly Thunder Manual.

Lei Rong Kun nodded, “So that’s what happened…”

“Oh yeah Old Ancestor, what did you mean previously when you said this Flame Bead thing wasn’t a treasure?” Lei Yu openly asked as he looked at the bead in his hand.

Lei Rong Kun sighed, “The Lei Sect originally relied on lightning as its core source of power. Unfortunately, only the first, second and third generations like me had this power. The generations really got worse as it continued on. Since then, we haven’t found any descendants with the lightning brand and we don’t know why either. From then on, the descendants of the Lei Sect used the flame as their source of power. The Lei Sect had originally been manufacturing Spiritual Beads as their source of income, and the bead you are holding is a product that was refined by our family’s method. The descendants that possess the flame brand use our Lei Sect’s special manufacturing method to condense their own energy into a single point to create this Spiritual Bead. Inside contains a certain amount of attacking power. Of course, in accordance to the person’s own power level, the manufactured bead would have its own corresponding damage. The destructive power of a bead made by a First Order and a Sixth Order would be on completely different levels.”

Lei Yu then asked with surprise: “Then how do I activate it?” If what the old ancestor said was true, then this thing was probably more powerful than the bombs in modern times.

Lei Rong Kun smiled in disdain, “This level of Spiritual Bead does not deserve to be brought out and shown off, the most it could do is burn a cow or something since it’s only a third grade Flame Bead. It’s very simple to activate it; just inject a small portion of your internal energy inside the bead; throw it out and once it reaches the target location, use your external energy senses to control your internal energy to explode within, which in turn detonates the Spiritual Bead. But these Flame Beads of the younger generation cannot be compared to the Heavenly Thunder Beads that we have manufactured in the past.”
