"Rumble …"
Dark clouds were surging in the sky, and lightning was flashing.
It was a rare rainstorm.
"Crash!"
In the Land of Radiation, on the Snake Monkey Island …
Even in such a stormy weather, in the Radiation Hot Spring that was still enshrouded in white mist, a man whose muscles were exposed as if they had been carved by a knife was taking a bath with his eyes closed.
In such a stormy weather, he was bold enough to take a bath in the open air.
Obviously, there was something wrong with this man's head, or he was physically strong!
Obviously, it was the latter.
This was because when the raindrops from the sky landed on this person's body, they immediately seemed to show "respect" and scattered in all directions.
It was even quieter when it fell into the pool, as if it were afraid to disturb the man's bath!
However, the scene seemed to have infuriated the dark clouds in the sky.
Whoosh!
With a deafening noise, the sky suddenly lit up, and a bolt of lightning dashed out of the dark clouds.
Like a dancing silver snake, or like a lightning sword descending from the sky, it headed straight for the man's head!
Boom!
The lightning was so fast that it was much faster than the speed of sound.
The man who was taking a bath in the Radiation Hot Spring was hit on the head by the lightning before he even had time to open his eyes.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz …
However, to his surprise, this bolt of lightning, which could melt most metals into water, did not hurt him at all.
It was as if some invisible force was tearing it apart, turning it into countless tiny silver electric snakes that made sizzling noises.
Then, several seconds later, they were completely melted into the bronze body of the man who had his eyes closed!
"Pa!"
When all the silver electric snakes were gone …
The man in the pool finally opened his eyes, but the whites and pupils of his eyes were all silver.
Pop! Crackle!
Then, the lightning suddenly appeared again.
A tremendous amount of silver electric currents surged out of his body and swept around.
The boiling water in the pool also surged in violation of the laws of physics and swept around together with the electric currents.
In the blink of an eye, a thirty-meter-wide area was covered by the water that contained the power of lightning. A lot of mud and plants were destroyed by the violent power of lightning.
It wasn't until several seconds later that everything stopped.
[Power of Lightning (Electric Manipulation)]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank 9]
Grade: Perfect
[Description: This is the superpower that the master of the Twin Dragon Island gained after fusing with the Radiation Spring, which contains enormous radiation energy.]
The players and natives of the Twin Dragon Island wanted superpowers.
He could only endure the risk of body mutation and soak in the Radiation Spring for a long period of time. Moreover, the abilities he obtained were random.
But Ji Ye was different.
Six days ago, after his Fusion talent cooled down again, he chose to "fuse" with the "hot spring water" that had the highest radiation energy in the Land of Radiation. In an extremely fast and optional way, he obtained the "lightning" ability that could be said to be very powerful.
Today, he used his talent again and absorbed the radiation energy that was condensed by the destruction of the power of providence in the pool over the past few days. As a result, the superpower that he named "Thunder Power" reached Extraordinary Rank-9, which was equivalent to the Perfected Martial Arts Peak.
This special ability had two main functions.
Firstly, it was the ability to absorb and release lightning just now.
Of course, the weather on the Twin Dragon Island was mostly sunny, and thunderstorms were rare. It was impossible to absorb the lightning power in this way.
Fortunately, because Elder Jiao had been advocating the development of electricity, the power system on the Twin Dragon Island had already taken shape.
The power system on the Twin Dragon Island had already taken shape. The thermal power in the active volcano in the Magma Monsters' settlement and the Silver Liquid Pool in the Metal Men's settlement could generate electricity.
Therefore, Ji Ye didn't have to worry about not having enough lightning power to absorb at all.
More importantly, it seemed that the Fusion process was influenced by the Fusion of the Fire Core last time.
Ji Ye found that even if he didn't absorb lightning directly, he could still transform the blood energy in his cells into lightning power.
Also, it worked the other way around!
That meant that with this superpower, he could even indirectly transform electricity into True Qi by absorbing it.
It was much simpler and faster than absorbing other people's inner strength with the Dark North Immortal Art. It wouldn't attract hatred, which was why this superpower was rated Perfect.
Apart from that, the second function of the Thunder Power was to stimulate one's body with electricity, thereby greatly increasing one's explosive power.
In terms of explosive power, it wasn't just strength and speed, but also reflexes.
It must be noted that Ji Ye's explosive power was already very powerful before. When he burned the Flood Dragon Blood, he was strong enough to fight against heroes like Lu Zhishen who had talent bonuses!
And now, with the addition of the Power of Thunder, it was even more powerful.
It was safe to say that his explosive power in battle was very rare even among Extraordinary Rank-9 heroes.
Of course, the explosive power of the two together would be beyond the human body's endurance, resulting in broken cells and even the explosion of blood vessels and nerves.
For that reason, techniques such as Heavenly Demon Disintegration could only be used to fight for one's life, even though it could make one burst for a short time.
Ji Ye was different. With his Healing talent, he could eliminate those side effects.
Moreover, the main aspect of the Five Thunder Heavenly Spirit Technique is the Thunder Technique.
"Although the so-called lightning technique of Daoism isn't the same as regular lightning, they're related to a certain extent. I can consider Fusing them next time for improvement."
In the hot spring, Ji Ye seemed to be deep in thought.
"However, it's definitely too late now … There are only a few hours to go before the advancement test, and the Dragon-Subduing Strike is still one step away from Perfection."
Compared to the Yin and Yang Sutra, which was an internal technique that could make breakthroughs based on one's understanding of the technique and the environment, the Dragon-Subduing Strike, which was an external technique, was rather difficult to make a breakthrough.
The Dragon-Subduing Strike was an external technique, but it was still rather difficult for him to make a breakthrough. Even though he had understood all the principles and details with his Fusion talent, he still couldn't make the breakthrough.
Although he had reached Extraordinary Rank-9 in a short time by fusing the energy from the entire Radiation Spring, the Radiation Spring was only an Extraordinary resource and didn't involve any Transcendent power.
But after all, the Spring of Radiation was only an Extraordinary resource and did not involve any Transcendent power.
Both the Thunder Power and the True Qi consumed the power of blood and Qi, and they conflicted with each other to a certain extent. So, he hadn't really reached Double Rank-9.
To be absolutely safe, he had to improve the level of the Dragon-Subduing Strike, which was a Perfect palm technique.
"Relying on closed-door cultivation to deduce a move type martial skill is only an armchair strategist in the end. Being able to attain Mastery is already the limit …."
Ji Ye frowned.
When he first obtained the Seven-Sided Mantis Fist, he had cultivated it from Basic Mastery to Greater Mastery through his EXP, and he didn't run into any serious bottlenecks.
However, he didn't make the breakthrough until he had a real battle with the Extraordinary Rank-5 Forest Monster Commander.
"Perhaps, I have to take a gamble and try to find a way out of this perilous situation!"
