Zombie World: Starting as an apprentice of the Thunder King

"Master... what virtue or ability do I, your disciple, possess...?"

Don't give me that.

Master Yu Lei waved his hand, "As I said before, you have great fortune. Giving you this opportunity will be a win for the Shenxiao Sect."

"I only hope that if the Shenxiao Sect ever faces difficulties in the future, you will lend a helping hand!"

Lin Bei remained silent for a moment, then solemnly cupped his hands in thanks: "Thank you for your kindness, Master."

"Lin Bei will never forget this kindness..."

"Go and prepare. Tomorrow morning, I will personally escort you into the secret realm."

Lin Bei replied in a deep voice, "Yes! This disciple will certainly not fail to live up to your expectations, Master!"

"etc......"

Shi Shaojian, standing to the side, asked, "Master, what about me?"

You've arranged everything so clearly, are you treating me like I'm invisible?

Master Yu Lei looked at Shi Shaojian and said calmly, "You will stay in the outer sect to cultivate. I will have someone teach you some thunder techniques corresponding to your realm."

"While I don't expect you to master powerful lightning techniques, at least your foundation will be more solid."

Shi Shaojian was overjoyed: "Thank you so much, Master!"

Early the next morning, Master Yu Lei personally led Lin Bei to the depths of the back mountain of the Shenxiao Sect.

Deep in the back mountain stands a massive stone gate, its surface covered with thunder patterns, exuding an ancient aura.

Master Yu Lei raised his hand and placed it on the stone door, pouring his magical power into it.

The stone gate slowly opened, and a rich aura of lightning-attribute spiritual energy rushed out.

"There are nine layers of lightning domains in the secret realm, and the lightning power becomes stronger the deeper you go."

"Do everything within your capabilities, and never force your way in," Master Yu Lei advised.

"Once you're inside, try to understand it. In six months, how far you go depends on your own destiny."

Master Yu Lei looked at him and said, "Remember, although thunder is violent, it is also one of the purest powers in the world."

"If you can calm your mind and feel the underlying principles, it will give you something far beyond your imagination."

"Yes, disciple will remember!"

Lin Bei took a deep breath, solemnly cupped his hands to Master Yu Lei, and then turned and walked into the stone gate.

The moment he stepped into the secret realm, the scenery around him suddenly changed.

Between heaven and earth, there was only a vast expanse of lightning, a surging sea of ​​electricity, and a deafening roar.

"Hiss..." Lin Bei gasped, the lightning power here was much stronger than he had imagined.

Just by standing still, the free-floating lightning-attribute energy frantically drilled into his body, tempering his meridians and bones.

"This place...is perfect for me!"

Instead of rushing deeper into the area, he first found a place to sit down in the first layer of the lightning domain and began to circulate his cultivation technique.

The lightning-attribute spiritual energy surged into his body like a tide, and was quickly absorbed and refined by the purple pseudo-core.

The fifth Dao pattern on the fake pill began to solidify rapidly under the nourishment of this spiritual energy.

Bai Ling was left outside by him, to be looked after by Shi Shaojian and the disciples of the Shenxiao Sect.

This environment is too violent for the little fox; bringing it in will only hurt it.

However, after cultivating for seven days, Lin Bei found that the spiritual energy concentration in the first layer of the Thunder Domain could no longer meet his absorption rate, so he got up and went to the second layer.

The spiritual energy concentration in the second layer of the Thunder Domain is twice that of the first layer, and the thunder power within is even more violent.

Lin Bei continued his cultivation. This time, he not only circulated his cultivation technique but also practiced the Five Thunder Fireball.

The lightning and fire projectiles condensed and dissipated in his palm, repeatedly honing his control over the spell.

Day after day, time passed silently amidst the lightning.

In this secret realm, there is no distinction between day and night, only the ever-changing lightning.

Lin Bei sat there motionless, the lightning surrounding him growing denser and denser, and the pseudo-core in his dantian was growing at a visible speed.

Half a month later, he entered the third level of the Thunder Domain.

The thunderous power here is quite evident, with lightning striking the surrounding rocks every moment.

Lin Bei's physical body had been tempered many times, so these aftershocks could no longer harm him; instead, they became a good opportunity to temper his bones and muscles.

His cultivation level also increased at a visible speed within the Thunder Domain.

A month later, on the fourth level, the sixth Dao pattern on the fake pill completely solidified.

Two months later, the seventh layer of the fifth layer took shape.

His physical cultivation also steadily progressed under the constant tempering of the Thunder Domain, and the number of bones being tempered increased.

In the third month, Lin Bei entered the sixth level of the Thunder Domain.

The lightning here is quite terrifying; the ground is covered with a fine layer of lightning.

Lin Bei cultivated under the wrath of lightning, consuming a large amount of magical power to protect his physical body for every quarter of an hour.

Finally, at the end of the month, the eighth Dao pattern solidified under the tempering of lightning.

At the same time, his bones were undergoing a transformation under the repeated impact of the lightning power.

Each time the power of thunder exploded within him, a bone was tempered until it was as clear and lustrous as white jade.

"boom!!!"

A muffled thud came from within, and the 176th bone was now fully tempered.

"Finally...Iron Bone Late Stage!"

He opened his eyes, a flash of lightning appearing and disappearing in them.

Even without using magic power, one can easily withstand ordinary magical artifacts with just physical strength.

After his physical body broke through, the sixth layer of lightning power could no longer harm him.

After only a moment's thought, Lin Bei stepped into the seventh level of the Thunder Domain.

Within the lightning field, a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket struck down from mid-air, hitting him on the head.

Lin Bei took the blow head-on, and a patch of his skin turned black, but he quickly recovered.

"Soon..."

Lin Bei sensed the state of the pseudo-core within his dantian.

Of the nine Dao patterns on the fake pill, eight have already solidified to their maximum, and the ninth has also shown a clear outline.

The time required to condense the ninth Dao pattern is longer than the previous eight combined.

Lin Bei, however, was not in a hurry at all. With the continuous supply of power from the Thunder Secret Realm, he had plenty of time.

Besides, where else can you find such a great place once you leave?

He sat down on the ground and entered a deep state of cultivation in this space ravaged by lightning.

Time passed day by day, and Lin Bei cultivated in the Thunder Domain for a full five months.

The moment the ninth Dao pattern solidified completely, the entire fake core trembled violently and emitted a crisp buzzing sound.

Nine Dao patterns lit up simultaneously, and a warm purple halo flowed across the surface of the fake pill.

Lin Bei slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and couldn't help but laugh: "I really didn't expect to break through to the peak of the mage realm so quickly!"

It was originally estimated that it would take at least one or two years to break through to the peak of the mage level.

But during this time, one opportunity after another came knocking.

"It seems I truly am a chosen one, favored by Heaven!"

Lin Bei smiled and stood up to stretch his muscles, feeling full of energy.

Five months have passed, and his cultivation level has advanced from the late stage of mage to the peak of mage.

His physical body has reached the late stage of Iron Bone. After tempering a dozen or so more bones, he can break through to the peak of Iron Bone!

If you go any further, you'll reach the realm of a true immortal.

Condensing the Golden Elixir marks the first true threshold on the path to becoming a Celestial Master.

"The nine Dao patterns of the False Core have all taken shape. Now, as long as a suitable opportunity is found, it can break through to the True Person realm."
