[Immortal Thunder Crow] is a magical creature that only exists in myths and legends.
Legend has it that in the age of the gods, there was an "eternal sea of thunder" that covered the sky and the sun, and this elemental flying crow was born there. They never fall to the ground in their lifetime, and they feed on thunder, and the more they swallow, the stronger they become.
And the most exaggerated thing is that this thing is immortal!
They don't have longevity. As long as the thunder element is immortal, they can live for hundreds of millions of years or even eternity.
The most powerful thunder crow, its combat power is comparable to that of a true god.
There is another elemental creature that is as famous as this strange bird, and that is the [Sun Bird]. According to legend, the sun hanging in the sky is this fire element bird.
Both are perfect...magical birds!
Therefore, when Ren saw this mythical creature that could only be seen "in stories", he was stunned.
Can myths and legends be regarded as reality
He thought he had made a mistake, but no matter from every detail, this strange bird with purple lightning all over its body was the kind of creature in myths and legends.
However, it seems that the thunder crow in front of me is not a good person.
Just when Ren was approaching the thunder pool, it suddenly flew out of the lightning without any warning.
How fast
Just when Ren's body was unable to react at all, the Thunder Crow had already rushed in front of him.
Then, he felt a "crackling" electric burning sensation on his skin, but the sting was not strong. It was a bit like the "piezoelectric igniter" in the lighter in his previous life, which made him feel numb and numb. of.
The only difference is that all the pores in his body have been electrocuted.
Then, there is no more.
... ..
"Huh... "
Before Ren's panic could be reflected on his expression, the Thunder Crow's all-round attack was over.
"I didn't die?"
Ren, who was bathed in the lightning, felt that it was still within the bearable range. Although his hair stood on end and he felt a little burnt, with the [Divine Healing Technique], the burns from the lightning were instantly gone.
Ren looked at the data displayed on the "Intelligence Brain" panel again. The voltage of up to 800 million volts flowed from his body just now, which is equivalent to being struck by lightning in a storm in nature.
This kind of super strong current would probably not be able to withstand a few hits from a legendary strongman like Bazel whose body had been enhanced, and an ordinary high-level transcendent could be killed by a thunderbolt.
After a moment, Ren immediately understood, "It's... [Totem of Thunder]!"
When he looked down again, he saw that he was completely naked and his clothes had been burned clean.
Even the storage ring on his hand was not spared, and was completely burned by lightning.
Fortunately, most of the important things were placed in the folding space, otherwise Ren would have cried to death.
However, although the storage ring was damaged and a large amount of property was lost, it was lucky that he was still alive.
"You idiot cost me hundreds of millions!"
When he saw the strange bird flying around, showing off its power, Ren was furious and instinctively raised his hand and punched it.
This flurry of fists hit the air, and the wind roared, creating cylindrical twisted air waves visible to the naked eye. With his current level of cultivation, he can shatter solid rocks with his punches from a distance, which is enough to easily kill monsters below the third level.
But when the fist hit Thunderbird, it was like it hit the reflection in the water, and scattered bits and pieces.
But with a flash of lightning, the strange bird instantly returned to its original state.
What's even more irritating is that after the retaliation, the thunderbird's face showed a very human "sarcastic" expression, seeming to mock this human's overestimation of his capabilities.
Looking at the twitching expression, one seems to hear the crow call of "quack, quack, quack..." in the ears.
"Damn it, this stupid bird has turned into a spirit and dares to mock me!"
Since the strange bird couldn't hurt him, Ren was more energetic. He raised his hand and started hitting [Sky God Strike], [Cannon Fist], and [Arashi Kiri] randomly.
But no matter what the move is, the effect is the same. The Thunder Light Monster collapses and then instantly recovers as before.
This guy is completely immune to physical damage.
After hitting hundreds of punches, but all of them were in vain, Ren stopped, raised his eyebrows and exclaimed: "Sure enough, it is as 'immortal' as the legend says. This strange bird, I'm afraid Bazel and the others would also be the same." Can't kill..."
However, there was nothing he could do about this strange bird, and there was nothing this strange bird could do about him.
One person and one bird, the novices pecked each other for a long time.
This pure elemental creature has a single attack method, which is thunder and lightning.
For Renn, a third-level transcendent, he should be wiped out in a flash, but who told him to have the [Thunder Totem]
This thunder-type treasure of the Coleman clan not only assists in fighting spirit training, but is also 99% immune to the thunder element. As long as the level of the law of attack does not exceed the power of the law contained in the totem itself, it will not be able to penetrate it!
It's like putting on a layer of insulating clothing. You can use the electricity as you please, but I won't move like a mountain.
Moreover, 99% of the power of thunder and lightning was absorbed by the totem, converted into rich elemental power, and fed back to increase the fighting spirit.
The more Ren fought, the more fighting spirit he felt was endless.
However, he also felt a little lucky in his heart.
Fortunately, this mist-shrouded land has some special restrictions, which is destined that all creatures will not exceed the fifth level.
Although this thunder crow is strong, its realm is forcibly suppressed to the fifth level.
Otherwise, if it were a sixth- or seventh-level thunder crow, the 1% of the overflowing thunder power would not be as simple as being scorched, and it would kill him in an instant.
... ..
It is obviously not an option to consume the Thunder Crow in total.
But Ren really couldn't do anything about it.
He ignored the stupid bird and walked toward the thunder pool under the lightning.
The strange bird obviously had its "spiritual intelligence" activated.
This can be seen from the fact that he also knows how to ridicule people.
But probably, the IQ is not that high.
It was probably locked in this underground palace for countless years and had not seen other creatures, so it was very curious about Ren, a human being. It poked his body with its beak from time to time, like a dog with inexhaustible energy. It said it was attacking, but it looked more like playing and playing.
Renn ignored the stupid bird and pondered as he walked: "There is such an [Immortal Thunder Crow] in this thunder pool. It should not be for the purpose of plotting against the 'testers' who enter here. Then, the people of this ancient country keep it What are you doing here [Place of Inheritance]?”
After thinking about it, I walked to the stone pillar at the edge of the thunder pool.
The runes carved on these stone pillars are very complex and glow with purple light. A comparison of the database of "Zhi Nao" shows that the style is almost exactly the same as that of Goblin Civilization.
System analysis results: This should be an energy conduction device.
This made Ren instantly think of the strange instrument in the goblin ruins that had been operating for countless years to create "abyssal demonic energy".
He was also very curious about what it was that generated the energy that allowed this huge mausoleum to operate for countless thousands of years without failing.
The thunder element at the edge of the thunder pool was so intense that the electric arcs seemed to be pulled, pulling out terrifying arcs of light on Ren's body. Even though he was immune to the totem, he felt the intense burning. feel.
However, because he was close enough at this time, he saw the energy "source" of the thunder pool.
Seeing this, I was also surprised.
... .
"What is this...?"
Ren felt that he had made a mistake.
He thought it should be some complex ancient instrument like a "nuclear reactor".
Unexpectedly, in the center of the thunder pond, there was a half-meter-high transparent jar.
In the jar, there is a "solid" black thunderbolt!
It probably looks like this:.
It was the solid thunder in this glass jar that produced this pool of violent lightning.
Probably seeing Ren approaching the thunder pool, the [Immortal Thunder Crow] stopped pecking him. Like a dog guarding its food, it hurriedly flew to the jar and made various "vicious" expressions on Ren's face. A fierce expression.
"..."
Renn looked at the silly bird guarding its food and frowned.
He also understood that it was also because of this "solid thunder and lightning" that this stupid bird was alive until now.
Clearly, this thing is a treasure.
But he felt that it was best not to touch it until he understood why it was there.
... .
Ren left the Lei Pond and planned to find some written materials on the fourth floor of the mausoleum to first understand what this place of inheritance was.
There are not many things on the altar. Apart from the thunder pool, there are only statues, murals, and stone carvings.
Probably because of the airtightness, the murals here are very well preserved and even the colors are very bright.
Then, when he saw the similar appearance on the mural, Ren was immediately stunned.
Originally I just wanted to take a glance, but I was immediately attracted by the content on the mural.
This is a mural depicting hundreds of thousands of people building a huge underground project. From digging the pit, then building the underground palace, and then backfilling.
A completely unmarked underground mausoleum was built.
"This is... the construction plan of a certain mausoleum?"
Ren took a closer look and unexpectedly discovered that the mausoleum built on the mural was not the mausoleum he was currently in, but another mausoleum built on the mountain.
The collapse of the Munkel civilization was less than 100,000 years ago. This time is too long for human lifespan, but it is only a blink of an eye for the mountain topography. During this time, the terrain will not change much.
He felt that the mountains on the mural looked familiar.
Thinking of something, Ren immediately gave an order to Zhinao: [System, compare the mountain terrain on the mural... ]
The next second, the system immediately compared it. The location of the tomb construction on the mural was actually more than 73% similar to the terrain of the mountain range in the west of the "Kalatwa Basin" where Black Dragon City is located.
"It's actually there..."
Thinking about the treasure map he found on the airship before, Ren immediately realized something in his heart, and said in surprise: "Is this... the construction plan of [Black Emperor] Moises's mausoleum?"
This mural completed the final piece of the treasure hunt in his mind.
No wonder it can't be found. It turns out that the mausoleum has "no tree or seal" and no ground signs at all.
... .
In addition to the construction process of the tomb, the last mural also made Ren discover an "abnormality".
It is painted on it that after the tomb was sealed, a leader-like person among the group of people who built the tomb held an "hourglass"-like object and enshrined it on the altar to be worshiped.
When Ren saw the "hourglass" placed on the altar, he immediately recognized it and blurted out: "Isn't this... the Coleman clan's 'inherited sacred object'?"
The painting skills of this mural are very high, and the detailed runes on the hourglass are clearly depicted stroke by stroke. He can be sure that the things on this painting are definitely the ones he has seen that the Coleman tribe used to seal the sky. That “inherited sacred object” that you cheated on. Later, it was stolen by people from the "Blackwater Tower" of the Omar Empire, which led to the outbreak of the [Black Tide].
The Hourglass Rain has also seen it, but it has no special effect.
He thought it was a symbolic thing, but he didn't expect it to appear on the mural.
"This 'hourglass' was taken from the tomb. What is it?"
Thinking of this, Ren vaguely felt that the hourglass was very important, as if it was a "key" to the tomb.
However, there is no way to verify everything. It seems that we can only know it by finding the tomb.
Now that he has determined the exact location of the "Black Emperor's Tomb", after returning this time, he can start to excavate that tomb.
... .
Renn carefully studied all the murals on the altar and found no useful information.
Anyway, there was a systematic record, so he was not afraid that he would overlook some details on the mural, and then turned around to look at the relief stone carvings not far away.
Judging from his previous experience in the two temples, these reliefs should be inherited techniques.
Looking at it, it is indeed the case!
What is recorded on this stone carving is the thunder method of "Seventy-two Divine Generals" [Thunder Nightmare] Aluret Pallas - "Thunder God Technique"!
Engraved on the black stone wall is the complete formula of this breathing method.
"Sure enough, "Breath of Thunder" is the fragment of "Thunder God Art"!"
Just by reading the previous few paragraphs, Ren was immediately sure that this came from the same source as the "Breath of Thunder" he was currently practicing.
All the techniques currently on the market involving the inheritance of the seventy-two generals are fragments.
I didn't know why before, I thought it was because the passage of time was too long. .
Now that I look at it, I understand.
Because the complete method of becoming a god touches the power of laws above the fifth level, it cannot be practiced at all. As time goes by, it will naturally be lost for generations.
What has been passed down are all "fragments" of extraordinary abilities cultivated below the fifth level.
This is the breathing method of "Thunder God Technique".
Ren En looked at the 20-30% formula in front and could still understand one or two.
But when I get to the back, I can’t understand it at all.
His current extraordinary state involves a level of power beyond the fourth level, which is completely like reading a book from heaven. It's probably like having just learned primary school mathematics, and then looking at advanced mathematics, you are completely confused.
In the second half of this exercise, most of the things need to be "understood". I can understand the words, but when I put them together, I can't understand the meaning.
Although he didn't understand the words so well, he did understand the pictures.
At this moment, there is also a detailed map of the meridians of the human body.
"The ninth level of lightning? This third level looks like my current state. Is it possible that the ancient extraordinary people had the ninth level? The ninth level is the divine level?"
"Aren't there twelve meridians in the human body, but there are actually seven hundred and twenty meridians depicted on it?"
"The breathing method also requires opening and flushing the pulse?"
"Because this breathing method is so violent, it actually has physical strength requirements?"
"After practicing to a great extent, can you control the power of thunder?"
"..."
Questions rushed into his head one after another, and Renn felt his head was heavy.
It was as if he had received a classical Chinese article without any annotations at all. He, who had just entered elementary school, could not understand the precise meaning of the "Thunder God Art" formula at all.
However, he understood the effect.
"Thunder Breath" is like an elephant sucking water, and "Thunder God Art" is like a whale swallowing.
This complete technique, as you go to the back, the amount of Dou Qi breathed out and inhaled increases exponentially!
... ..
"That's all, I won't be able to use this breathing method for the time being anyway. When the time comes, I'll go back and ask the Mafa Great Witch Festival and the others..."
Renn did not study anything beyond his own understanding.
He wrote down all the words and patterns on the stone carvings, and then walked to the stone carvings nearby.
What is recorded here is an exclusive movement technique that is matched with the "Thunder God Technique" - [Supernatural Power·Thunder Shadow Instant Body].
"People are like light and shadow, transformed into thunder... After you practice this body technique to the end, can you still fly in the air?"
Ren's eyes widened as he looked at the movement.
The more you understand martial arts in depth, the more powerful you can see the power of this movement.
[Secret Art: Divine Movement] is powerful, but it is easy to predict the martial arts in a straight line.
And this [Supernatural Power·Thunder Shadow Flash] is an uncaptured displacement trajectory. If you practice it to perfection, can you walk with thunder
Moreover, the "steps" on the stone carvings are not only flat, but also walking in the air.
If Renn hadn't known that there was a higher level beyond the fifth level of transcendence, he would never have believed it when he saw these exaggerated descriptions.
After all, those who are the most powerful Mafa witches in the world cannot fly in the air. It is simply a fantasy that they can achieve it with just one movement technique.
"According to what is said above, I estimate that I have just started to get started. If I want to reach the point where I can fly in the air, my muscle strength must be at least ten times what it is now... In other words, I need to practice [Hercules] to the point" The Dacheng of Shengang Realm, which is the current state of Canosha?"
Ren dragged his chin and thought.
He is still a little short of reaching the "Divine Power Realm", and the "Divine Strength Realm" is still far away. It is estimated that it will be good to reach the fifth level of Transcendence.
If you want to "fly into the sky", you must be at least level five.
The melee system is different from the magic system. The displacement supported by speed must require extremely high physical strength.
This can also be understood as the reason why the inheritance of [Thunder Nightmare] Aluret Pallas requires the support of super high physical strength in both martial arts and body techniques.
Moreover, for these movements, physical strength alone is not enough, it must also be supported by thunder-type fighting energy.
Finally reaching a level called "controlling the thunder element field", can the speed be as fast as thunder
Renn was very confused. It was another secret method that he could not understand yet.
However, just by harvesting the breathing and body skills, he already felt that his trip was worthwhile.
This is a smooth road passed down by the real gods, leading to the "godly steps"!
... ..
Next, look at the next set of stone carvings.
At this glance, Ren also understood what was in the Leichi glass bottle.
I also understand why the [Immortal Thunder Crow] exists there.
"[World-destroying divine thunder]? It is said that at the beginning of the creation of the world, the dark attribute divine thunder ranked sixth in power? The realm of super-level laws?"
