Wan Hongzhuang
Chapter 24 The Temptation of the Thunder-Wind Realm's Top Technique
"With a sound of thunder, the Thunder Emperor surpasses the heavens, clad in azure robes, my name is Wan..."
"Such domineering words, such a tyrannical person..."
Wan Lei's eyes were filled with admiration and respect. Although he was a lofty god in his previous life, it was something he was born into, rather than achieving godhood step by step through his own cultivation.
But this Thunder Emperor, facing pursuit from the entire world, was still able to rise with incredible speed, sweeping away all enemies. He deserves the title of Thunder Emperor, deserves the epithet 'surpasses the heavens.'
"That's right, such a domineering person, he has the capital to be domineering."
Wan Zhentian said in a resounding voice.
"I really want to see the Thunder Emperor's true face."
Wan Lei said with a smile.
Wan Zhentian did not smile, but said extremely seriously, "He is the Thunder Emperor, from the Wan family of Qishan Prefecture. He is also a congenital thunder body (xian tian lei ti), his name is... Wan Qingyi!"
As soon as these words came out, Wan Lei was immediately stunned.
"Qishan Prefecture... Wan family... isn't that our family? This Thunder Emperor, is he our ancestor?"
Wan Lei blurted out.
Good heavens, five thousand years ago, his family produced such an awesome and incredible figure?
"Yes, it is this Wan family, we... are the direct descendants of the Thunder Emperor!"
Wan Lei muttered in disbelief, "Wan Qingyi... Thunder Emperor... but, with such a powerful figure in the family, why does our Wan family now only occupy a quarter of Qishan Prefecture's land? Why is the strongest among us only at the Jiedan (Core Formation) stage?"
Wan Zhentian sighed heavily upon hearing this, and said, "It doesn't hurt to tell you.
Back then, the Thunder Emperor had six great disciples, who are now the six most powerful families in the Thunderwind Realm. Together with the Rift Sky Sword Sect, the Kuilian Sect, and the Yin Yang Sect, they form the nine peak forces of the Thunderwind Realm today!"
"But do you know? Back then, the Thunderwind Realm had ten peak forces, one of which was our Wan family, and because of the Thunder Emperor's existence, our Wan family was the most powerful."
"The reason why my Wan family has declined to such an extent is probably because of the suppression from the other families, right?"
Wan Lei's mind became active.
After all, how could a family as strong as the Wan family suddenly decline for no reason? And the only ones who could threaten the Wan family in the Thunderwind Realm were the other families.
Wan Zhentian gave him an appreciative look and said, "That's right. After the Thunder Emperor ascended to the Immortal Realm, more than a thousand years passed, and the second-generation ancestor was weak. The Wan family never produced another Transcending Tribulation stage expert, which made the other six families' ambitions swell unprecedentedly.
The six families were worried that the Wan family would produce another Thunder Emperor-like figure, so they always harbored hostility towards the Wan family. Finally, one day, the six families joined forces and launched a full-scale attack on the Wan family.
At that time, the Thunder Emperor Palace in the center of the Thunderwind Continent was still under the command of the second-generation ancestor, and all the Wan family members lived there.
The six Transcending Tribulation stage experts joined forces to kill the second-generation ancestor, Wan Jiran, who was their junior brother.
Immediately afterwards, all the Wan family members in the Thunder Emperor Palace were massacred, leaving only our branch in Qishan old home.
The six families' armies marched to Qishan. At that time, the Wan family head of Qishan activated the treasure left by the Thunder Emperor, severely injuring the six Transcending Tribulation stage experts.
That treasure was also destroyed.
The family head warned the six families that if they were to kill the Wan family, they would destroy the Thunder Emperor's legacy cultivation technique, the Thunder Emperor Mantra (Lei Di Jue).
The six families were afraid to act rashly and had no choice but to withdraw their troops.
The six families seemed to be an alliance, but in reality, they had their own agendas. They were worried that one family would secretly steal the Thunder Emperor Mantra, so they made an agreement that no one could attack the Wan family.
Of course, the reason they used was also to be grateful for the Thunder Emperor's teachings, and to leave a bloodline for the Thunder Emperor."
"Hmph, what kind of reasoning is this? They killed the family until only the Qishan branch was left, and they shamelessly said it was to be grateful to their ancestor, truly shameless."
Wan Lei said angrily.
"Yes, later the six families have been secretly suppressing the Wan family. Although they don't say it openly, we also know that the other forces in this Qishan Prefecture have their figures behind them to varying degrees.
This is also the reason why the Wan family has become increasingly declining, until now, the Wan family's territory is only a quarter of Qishan Prefecture.
We, the younger generations, are incompetent, and we are ashamed of our ancestors. We can't even defend this old home in Qishan."
Wan Zhentian said with a sigh.
Wan Lei didn't hear anything else, but the words Thunder Emperor Legacy were clear to him.
Obviously, it was a cultivation technique. The cultivators in this world use their cultivation techniques when breathing spiritual energy and fighting. According to the different attributes, the cultivation techniques are also different, and they also have different strengths.
But the same thing is that the cultivation technique can improve combat power, speed up cultivation speed, and make the energy in the body more condensed and smoother to use.
He is now at the eighth level of the Initial Force Realm, completely relying on the power absorbed by the Heavenly Punishment. When fighting, he also uses pure power without the blessing of a cultivation technique.
He should have found a cultivation technique to practice long ago, but the problem is that he doesn't like ordinary cultivation techniques.
Want to ask what is the strongest cultivation technique in this world? Then without a doubt, it must be the cultivation technique left by the Thunder Emperor who ascended to immortality.
Moreover, he also cultivates thunder power, which is completely compatible.
Thinking of this, Wan Lei's heart was extremely hot, and he quickly asked: "Then how can I cultivate the Thunder Emperor Mantra?"
"If you want to cultivate the Thunder Emperor Mantra, you must be the most outstanding disciple among the five houses of the Wan family. That Wan Liuchuan is eyeing the Thunder Emperor Mantra, so he wants to take advantage of the Wan family's Southern House heir competition to shine and obtain the Thunder Emperor Mantra.
But in the past 50,000 years, my Wan family has also produced many outstanding disciples, but none of them have been able to successfully cultivate the Thunder Emperor Mantra.
Lei'er, you are a congenital thunder body, and the Thunder Emperor was also a congenital thunder body. Only you are the most suitable to cultivate the Thunder Emperor Mantra.
If you can defeat Wan Liuchuan, you can obtain permission to cultivate the Thunder Emperor Mantra."
Wan Zhentian said solemnly.
The temptation of the Thunder Emperor Mantra was too great, Wan Lei thought for a long time before calming down.
Because if he wants to obtain the Thunder Emperor Mantra, he must face Wan Liuchuan, the unparalleled genius of the Wan family, a powerful figure who can cultivate to the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage at the age of sixteen.
After thinking for a while, Wan Lei said in surprise: "That's not right, House Lord..."
"Call me Grandpa! Brat, now that you have cultivation, you've grown up? You don't even call me Grandpa anymore?"
Wan Zhentian glared and said.
Wan Lei's mouth twitched again and again, how could he, the dignified son of Odin, call you, a mere Jiedan stage cultivator, Grandpa? Can you bear it?
But on second thought, he is now Wan Lei after all. The identity of Thor is a matter of his previous life, and he must accept reality.
What's more, this family is quite nice to him, so call him.
"Gra... Grandpa, what I want to say is that the Thunder Emperor Mantra should be something that the disciples of the five houses of the Wan family are qualified to compete for, right? Why did you say that you only need to defeat Wan Liuchuan?"
Wan Lei asked.
