Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 44 Thunder Source
Ningfa slapped his thigh in ecstasy.

As expected, I was right in my guess. This mysterious scroll really traced the origin of the Yuan Lei Jue to another martial art!
It seems that the Yuan Lei Jue is derived from this [Ancient Source Thunder Sutra]. The name alone sounds much more advanced than any other Yuan Lei Jue.

Just as Ning Fa was excited, the Ancient Source Thunder Scripture on the scroll turned into a ball of white light and flew into his forehead.

Ningfa couldn't help but close his eyes.

It was a full hour later that Ning Fa opened his eyes, with excitement and shock still in them.

This set of exercises only has the general outline and the first six levels. It can be practiced to the late stage of foundation building and can only be practiced by cultivators with thunder spiritual roots.

From the looks of it, it's probably because the mysterious scroll doesn't have enough energy, so the subsequent skills can no longer be traced back.

But being able to cultivate to the late stage of foundation building is enough for Ning Fa for the time being.

After Ning Fa took a quick look at the general outline of the technique, he basically concluded that the Yuan Lei Jue he had practiced before should have been simplified from the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra, because there were significant similarities.

For example, all the meridians and acupoints involved in the Yuan Lei Jue are also found in the Gu Yuan Lei Jing, but the meridians and acupoints required for the operation of the Gu Yuan Lei Jing are several times more than those in the Yuan Lei Jue.

Judging from the description in the general outline alone, this martial art is so powerful that Ning Fa even wonders if it is overly exaggerated.

Although this technique did not specify its level, Ning Fa felt that it was at least upper-middle earth grade.

Even the Earth Level is too low. This technique has a great possibility of reaching the Heaven Level.

First of all, this technique is actually a rare method of cultivating both magic power and physical body. It not only cultivates magic power, but also cultivates physical strength.

The introduction in the technique says that this is because the technique is too overbearing and has extremely high requirements on the practitioner's physical body. Without the corresponding physical realm, it is difficult to perform the technique. Many of the secret techniques in the technique require strong physical support to be performed.

Ning Fa had heard a little about the practice of cultivating both Dharma and body.

The mainstream in the current cultivation world is Dharma cultivation, but there are also a very small number of body cultivation, as well as practitioners who take the more difficult path of dual cultivation of Dharma and body.

The cultivators who practiced the dual cultivation of Dharma and body generally had much greater strength than cultivators of the same level, and could even fight against enemies across borders without any problem.

However, the corresponding improvement in cultivation level is also extremely difficult, especially the requirement for cultivation resources for body cultivation is much higher than that for magic cultivation.

In ancient times, many monks chose to practice dual cultivation of both Dharma and body because they were attracted by the powerful power of dual cultivation of both Dharma and body.

However, with the decline of spiritual energy in heaven and earth and the reduction of natural treasures, physical cultivation gradually declined, and cultivators who practiced both magic and body became even rarer.

However, starting from the second level of the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra, which corresponds to the middle stage of Qi training, one begins to need to cultivate the physical body. If the physical body is not improved, it will be difficult to expand the meridians and acupoints, and it will be difficult to improve the magic power.

Therefore, every level of practice in the Ancient Source Thunder Scripture has a corresponding body training chapter.

Another point is that the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra has the concept of "Thunder Source".

The so-called thunder source, according to Ning Fa's own understanding, is a warehouse for storing magic power, just like the Dantian Qi sea.

But the special thing about the source of thunder in the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra is that it can have more than one source of thunder.

In addition to the [main thunder source] in the Dantian, you can also open up [small thunder sources] in other parts of the body.

Every time a small lightning source is opened up, the total amount of mana of the cultivator can be increased by several times.

In this way, if a cultivator who practices the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra opens up multiple small thunder sources, the total amount of mana in his body is likely to be several times that of cultivators of the same level.

Moreover, because the small thunder sources are usually opened up at important acupoints and nodes in the meridian circulation, cultivators do not need to draw magic power from their dantian when practicing their exercises. The nearby small thunder sources can directly provide the magic power.

In this way, the monk's casting speed can naturally be greatly improved, which is extremely critical in the ever-changing battles between monks.

However, the development of a small lightning source is not that simple.

The technique introduces that for most of the cultivators who practice this technique, it would be considered good if they could open up three or four small lightning sources before building the foundation.

Moreover, it is best to open up a small lightning source during the Qi training stage. If you want to open up a small lightning source after you have established your foundation, it will be extremely difficult. Because each small lightning source must be closely connected to other lightning sources, this stage is easiest to do during the Qi training stage.

Therefore, if a cultivator with thunder spiritual roots practices the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra, his potential can be seen by looking at how many small thunder sources he can cultivate during the Qi Refining Stage.

In ancient times, some monks with thunder spiritual roots even deliberately delayed their foundation building in order to open up more small thunder sources.

The more small lightning sources there are, the more solid the foundation is. Not only will the total amount of mana be high, but it will also be relatively easier to reach the realm after breaking through the foundation.

The Ancient Source Thunder Scripture is so powerful. It is not only a powerful method for cultivating both the Dharma and the body, but also has the unique method of cultivation called the Small Thunder Source, which allows the cultivators who practice this method to be far more powerful than those at the same level.

This is of course not without cost.

That is, the cultivators who practice this technique will improve their cultivation level much more slowly than other cultivators.

The requirements for cultivation resources, such as the concentration of spirit veins, are extremely high, and even a third-level spirit vein can only be considered to barely meet the standards.

The first-grade superior spiritual vein that Ning Fa is currently in is naturally far from enough.

Even though his sensitivity to thunder spiritual power was now far greater than before, the thin concentration of spiritual veins severely restricted it. Even Ningchang Island, which had a concentration of second-grade high-quality spiritual veins, did not seem to be enough.

Ningfa gradually calmed down, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

Although this Ancient Source Thunder Scripture looks very powerful, it seems to be very difficult to practice, especially the difficult path of dual cultivation of Dharma and body.

Moreover, it seems that this mysterious scroll is currently lacking in energy, so it can only trace back the first six levels of the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra, and it is unknown whether the subsequent levels can be traced back.

This made Ningfa hesitate.

But he only thought about it for a moment before making up his mind.

He has no other choice now. This Ancient Source Thunder Scripture should be the highest-level thunder-related technique he can access.

In particular, the existence of the small thunder source should be able to solve the problem of the high total amount of mana required by his own five elements thunder body.

With the powerful bonus of his own Five Elements Thunder Body to the practice of thunder-attributed techniques, practicing this technique should not be a problem.

As for the fact that this technique only has the first six levels and can only be cultivated to the late stage of foundation building, it is not very serious for him now.

As long as he can advance to the foundation-building stage, with his mysterious thunder body and the Ancient Source Thunder Sutra, I believe he can kill many foundation-building cultivators indiscriminately. This is enough.

The only limitation may be the body training part.

However, the Ancient Source Thunder Scripture also comes with a matching body-refining potion, which can be used as an aid to speed up the progress of body refining.

Although the spiritual materials needed for this body-refining potion seem to be very rare, there should be hope that he can get them when he grows up.

Apart from anything else, as long as he could advance to the middle stage of Qi training, with the help of the mysterious scroll, he would be able to quickly become a first-class intermediate-grade alchemist.

By then, his power and status in the family will surely increase greatly, and it should not be a problem for him to find a way to obtain these resources.

After realizing this, Ningfa couldn't help but smile.

I gained a lot today. Not only did I figure out the secret of my body, but I also obtained this ancient thunder-based technique.

Ning Fa felt that there was God's will in all things.

Ning Fa was not in a hurry to start practicing. He was too shocked tonight and his mind was in turmoil, so it was not suitable for practicing.

He lay directly on the futon, thinking about the introduction of the Five Elements Thunder Body in the Tianji Lingjuan, and gradually fell asleep.
