We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

Chapter 254: Sword Technique - All kinds of things!
Lei Zhentian looked at the man in front of him, feeling a chill in his heart, and vaguely understood what the other party meant.

Nuwa, whose full name is Nuwa Celestial Intelligence Central Hub, is one of the national treasures of the Great Xia Dynasty.

In the more than three hundred years of the Great Xia New Era, Nuwa experienced several great storms and technological iterations. In modern times, the computing power, now fully liberated, has reached an astonishing level.

Computing power can be supernatural, and can even briefly predict the future.

With just one percent of the computing power, it is possible to take over the entire Sky Eye monitoring system of the Great Xia Dynasty and classify, summarize, and statistically process the information it receives.

As long as it is within the city limits of Daxia, public places cannot avoid the surveillance of the Sky Eye monitoring system.

And there is more than one Sky Eye; it provides multiple layers of coverage and multiple layers of protection.

Under the influence of such macro-environmental factors, it would be extremely difficult for those wicked people to do anything that endangers public safety.

However, it's not without its drawbacks.

That means there is almost no personal privacy in public places.

The term "public place" here is used in a broad sense. Apart from toilets and private residences, anything can be considered a public place. For example, the surveillance cameras inside classrooms are connected to and share data with the Skynet surveillance system.

For ordinary martial arts students, their entire lives will be under surveillance.

Although not everyone is entitled to view these surveillance videos, and they do not affect personal life, living under constant surveillance, being monitored by others, always creates an extremely uncomfortable feeling.

But the problem is that Great Xia has always been, and will remain for a long time, under temporary war control.

For the new era, a Divine Palace Realm expert is the ultimate truth!
Therefore, in the midst of this turmoil, in accordance with the long-standing rules of the Great Xia Dynasty, all of Shen Bailian's past surveillance records, from birth to elementary school, from elementary school to junior high school... from high school to Tiangang Academy, were retrieved.

Furthermore, Nuwa also organized and summarized the information, identifying two important pivotal events.

The first pivotal event was the "412" incident, which occurred on April 12, 345 of the New Era, when the Azure Scale Snow-Treading Beast attacked Bozhou City.

With the honest confession of the Bai brothers, Bai Qi and Bai Ming, Kong Chaowu quickly noticed the abnormalities on the remains of the Azure Scale Snow-Treading Beast and the rich divine substance within it.

And it was reported.

When the "412" incident occurred, several surveillance cameras near Fandou Street monitored Wei Peng accidentally picking up a few feathers and giving one of them to Shen Bailian.

The changes in Shen Bailian's body caused by his emotional state the moment he came into contact with Qinglin Taxue's feathers were naturally clearly recorded by the Heavenly Eye.

Around this point in time, Shen Bailian's combat power, rate of progress, and physical strength level suddenly experienced a qualitative leap.

The second point in time is Kong Chaowu's gift.

Although Kong Chaowu handed over the majority of Qinglin Taxue's remains to facilitate the research, according to the rules of the Great Xia Dynasty, some scraps and the most important beast core were still left behind.

These were all given to Shen Bailian.

Logically speaking, with the current technology of the Great Xia Dynasty, it is possible to purify divine matter and transform it into a resource that enhances the potential of human martial arts.

However, the amount purified at one time is very small, and due to the hierarchy, it is difficult to remove all impurities and completely purify the product.

Therefore, when ordinary martial artists absorb it, they inevitably leave behind some residue or divine substances that are difficult for the human body to absorb.

But what about Shen Bailian?

It absorbed all the divine substances from the beast core and the blood of Qinglin Taxue, licking it clean, leaving not a trace of divine substance impurity.

This anomaly was naturally noticed by Kong Chaowu, and as always, it was uploaded to the Nuwa Celestial Intelligence Center.

Things have come to this point, and the truth is quite clear.

Although the specific principles are unclear, some of the higher-ups in the Great Xia Dynasty are aware that Shen Bailian is likely able to absorb and utilize divine matter without any hindrance.

"What is the attitude of those people up there towards this?" Lei Zhentian hesitated for a long time, his face contorted with worry, looking extremely conflicted.

"Hahaha... As expected of Instructor Lei." The man whom Lei Zhentian called Sikong was slightly taken aback when he heard the words coming from behind, and then laughed.

The laughter was so unrestrained and spirited that it inadvertently stirred the mysteries of heaven and earth. The surrounding primordial energy was also attracted by the laughter, transforming into the mind's eye of the primordial energy vortex.

It even dimmed the purple lightning that roared in the dark clouds above the sky.

'No wonder the elders let that kid Sikong come out; it turns out his strength has improved again.' Lei Zhentian was startled by the man's laughter and clicked his tongue in amazement.

In his memory, Sikong's martial arts realm had already reached the Embracing Moon Realm two or three years ago, and now it has probably reached the late stage of the Embracing Moon Realm.

Even higher.

Lei Zhentian earned the title "Instructor Lei" because he, like Cheng Shangwu, had once served as an instructor in the Starry Sky Martial Hall.

However, because the Starry Sky Martial Arts Hall has a different system from the Martial Arts University, the corresponding teachers in the Starry Sky Martial Arts Hall are generally called instructors.

Lei Zhentian's position in the Starry Sky Martial Hall is that of the chief instructor, a position he has held for two or three decades. Even Sikong once served under Lei Zhentian for a period of time.

The man knew that although Lei Zhentian appeared to be a burly, imposing man who intimidated ordinary people, he was actually a very thoughtful and emotional person.

Furthermore, perhaps because he had been an instructor for so long, he always had a passionate heart towards some of the martial arts students.

That's why they immediately sought to understand the overall view of the Great Xia leadership regarding Shen Bailian and how they would treat him.

"What other attitude can we have?" the man chuckled. "The old rule still applies: let things take their course until they show any signs of harm."

"After all, there are people like Shen Bailian with special abilities and talents in the Great Xia. Which person who can grow into a Divine Palace Realm martial artist normally doesn't have their own secrets?"

"It's just that he's a bit special."

Upon hearing this, Lei Zhentian pondered for a moment and nodded knowingly.

After reaching the Mortal Transformation Realm, a martial artist's cultivation speed will become increasingly slower. The three martial arts realms of Opening the Sea, Embracing the Moon, and Divine Palace are often referred to as the Three Heavens, meaning that each step is a step higher than the last.

The gap between each realm is like a chasm spanning the heavens.

Even a martial arts expert who has just entered the Embracing Moon Realm and has not yet fully stabilized his realm can still crush most of the peak martial artists in the Opening Sea Realm.

Even a titled expert who is invincible in the Sea Opening Realm would find it difficult to withstand the sharpness of an expert in the Moon Embracing Realm.

“Sigh…” Lei Zhentian shook his head and sighed helplessly when he thought of his disciple who was stimulated by Shen Bailian’s advancement to the Sea Opening Realm. He said softly, “The child has grown up and is not easy to manage.”

"If it were a few years ago, Chang Kong would have consulted with me and sought my opinion before making any decisions."

"But now, they've skipped me entirely."

"Instructor Lei, after all these years, who doesn't know your temperament?" Sikong Batian chuckled softly, "If I had informed you of this matter beforehand, would you still have agreed?"

"Absolutely not!" Lei Zhentian replied without hesitation, "The probability of failure is too high for someone at the peak of the Transcendent Realm to fuse with the Heart of the Thunder God. Even if they succeed, the consumption of their martial arts potential will be enormous..."

Before he could finish speaking, he sensed the faint smile on Sikong Batian's lips, and immediately stopped, giving a wry smile.

"You see."

While the two were talking.

Suddenly, "BOOM!!!"

Between heaven and earth, a terrifying purple lightning bolt streaked across the sky, the thunder dragon roared loudly, and a most violent and fierce aura from heaven and earth spread rapidly, causing the entire world to tremble.

Purple lightning flashed like a dragon, a gale howled, galloping across the sky, and dark clouds raged up to the ninth heaven!
Just a moment.

Under the roar of the thunder dragon, the energy that had been accumulating in the black clouds for most of the day, as well as the terrifying vortex of heaven and earth energy around it, were instantly activated, like a nuclear bomb that had been detonated, and terrifying energy poured out.

"They're here." "Get ready."

Lei Zhentian and the man he called Sikong spoke one after the other, their sharp gazes piercing through the barrier of layers of dark clouds, both noticing the strange phenomenon in the sky.

A chill ran through me.

Both of them knew that they had reached a critical moment in fusing the Heart of Thor, and whether they could achieve a higher degree of fusion depended on this one tremor.

Naturally, they lost the will to think about anything else.

The moment their voices fell silent.

The sky within a radius of a hundred miles was instantly covered by a terrifying storm of thunder, and the black earth and black mountain peaks that were originally shrouded in darkness became bright in an instant.

"Crack! Kara! Boom!"

A dazzling, almost blinding bolt of lightning, like a spear of judgment, wrapped in dense purple electricity, pierced fiercely towards the mountain peak where Yuwen Changkong was located.

Subsequently.

The purple dragon, which had been wandering aimlessly in the sky, seemed to be guided as the "Spear of Judgment" shot out, and immediately found its target.

"It's finally coming..."

"What you can do, I can definitely do too!" Yuwen Changkong's expression was solemn. He took a deep breath, his heart filled with excitement and a thirst for power, without the slightest intention to back down.

Ever since he heard the news that Shen Bailian had advanced to the Sea Opening Realm, he felt a heavy pressure pressing down on his shoulders, as heavy as a thousand pounds, making it hard for him to breathe.

Since childhood, apart from the life-and-death separation at birth, Yuwen Changkong has almost never encountered an opponent who could suppress him in battles among his peers.

Even the holy sons in the other martial halls were no exception.

But ever since Yuwen Changkong met Shen Bailian, things have changed dramatically. Shen Bailian's actions have repeatedly challenged his worldview.

It made him realize that there were other geniuses in the world whose talents far surpassed his own.

However, although Yuwen Changkong appeared nonchalant about it, he was actually quite dissatisfied inside.

Why should he always be second, whether in combat strength or martial arts realm?

Since Shen Bailian could break through to the Sea Opening Realm, Yuwen Changkong, who was never lagging behind others, could also advance to the Sea Opening Realm and fully demonstrate the power of the "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder" Holy Body.

At that time, we will be able to gain the upper hand in terms of combat strength.

However, Yuwen Changkong also clearly understood that Lei Zhentian would never agree to let him risk his life to fuse with the Heart of the Thunder God.

Therefore, he had no choice but to bypass Lei Zhentian and, hoping for the best, chose to report the matter to a higher level.

But to Yuwen Changkong's surprise, Shen Xinghe, the Grand Elder of the Starry Sky Martial Hall, actually agreed to let him fuse with the Heart of the Thunder God ahead of schedule.

Furthermore, in order to prevent any unforeseen circumstances, the Second Holy Son, Sikong Batian, who had just awakened from seclusion, was also awakened to protect him as he fused with the Heart of the Thunder God.

……

Shen Bailian, who had been cultivating in seclusion inside the cave, gradually subsided his inexplicable aura.

The primal power surging within him like a mighty river gradually subsided as time passed.

suddenly.

"Om~"

In an instant, an invisible wave erupted from Shen Bailian's body, surging in all directions and crashing against the cliff face.

It emitted a crackling and booming sound, and the earth and rocks shattered!

Compared to before, this aura's coverage area wasn't very wide, but it was extremely dense, attracting all the surrounding elemental energy.

It's become much richer.

"After experiencing so many events, this journey of advancing various skills has finally come to an end." Shen Bailian stood up, stretched his muscles that hadn't moved for a long time, and his face was full of smiles.

And at that very moment.

Congratulations! Your Spirit attribute has been improved!

Shen Bailian stared at the notification message that appeared before him for a moment, then his face lit up with even more joy. A glint flashed in his eyes, and an uncontrollable smile appeared on his lips.

Never imagined.

There was an unexpected surprise.

However, although Shen Bailian's mental attributes have been improved, he still feels exhausted and needs to rest for a while before he can set off.

"I might as well take a look while I'm at it." With that thought, Shen Bailian unfolded the ink-wash panel without hesitation—
