Cultivation: I Have Studied Abroad in the Modern World
Chapter 200 - 100 Granting Land

Chapter 200: Chapter 100 Granting Land

Zheng Fa’s heart was already inclined to go to the Heavenly Stele.

It was too difficult for the Jiushan Sect to migrate—people could leave, but Spirit Veins are hard to find.

Without the Spirit Veins, the Jiushan Sect’s destruction would not be far off.

Moreover, if the Great Freedom Demon Sect did not have the restrictions of the Thunder Pool, it was uncertain whether they would have the chance to flee.

Yan Wushuang suddenly said, "Actually, there are not many threats to life within the Heavenly Stele."

"Hmm?"

This statement made Zheng Fa startled.

"It’s not without danger to enter the Heavenly Stele, but once inside, there’s hardly any strife among us," said Yan Wushuang, surprising both Zheng Fa and Zhang.

They looked at Yan Wushuang, and noticed that not just him, but Chu Tianque as well, both had expressions of agreement.

It seemed that this matter really wasn’t a secret, Yan Wushuang even spoke freely about managing the Heavenly Stele, explaining:

"The rules inside the Heavenly Stele are strict, and there are very few conflicts." Yan Wushuang said to Zheng Fa, "Of course, this does not mean there are no difficulties; on the contrary, this Heavenly Stele..."

At this point, Zheng Fa saw a bitter smile on all three faces.

"One could say it requires us to rack our brains."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Fa became quite puzzled.

But it seemed that Yan Wushuang and the others were not willing to explain further, only before leaving did Yan Wushuang say, "Mr. Zheng, if you enter the Heavenly Stele, we might be considered opponents. Although this conversation did not contain much secrecy, it was entrusted to me by Elder Han—otherwise, I wouldn’t have told you."

"Ah? Sunset Sword Immortal Elder Han? His entrustment?" Zheng Fa blinked, his expression bewildered: "Mr. Yan, do you know why?"

"..." Unexpectedly, Yan Wushuang’s expression was even more baffled: "Maybe... you should check your family records?"

"..."

Zheng Fa watched the three people leave.

He turned to look at Zhang and another, their faces also full of confusion, seemingly not understanding the intentions of the aforementioned Sunset Sword Immortal.

"Sister."

After thinking for a while, Zheng Fa finally spoke.

"Go ahead." Unexpectedly, before Zheng Fa could speak, Zhang directly said, "I’ll wait for you outside."

"Hmm."

Looking deeply towards Zhang, Zheng Fa slowly made his way towards the direction of the Heavenly Stele.

Ahead lay unavoidable thunder, with every step, several bolts of lightning flashed around him.

The power of this thunder was three times stronger than that within the Thunder Pool.

Even with each step forward, he could feel the energy in the lightning growing stronger.

Initially, Zheng Fa could rely on his Dharma Body to withstand it.

Later, he also had to invoke the Divine Sky Thunder Control True Method.

There are many Thunder Cultivation Techniques, each with its own special uses—some are good at summoning Heavenly Thunder to kill enemies, others continue to refine the body with Thunder Skill.

But as the True Inheritor of the Jiushan Sect, the core essence of the "Divine Sky Thunder Control True Method" focuses only on controlling thunder.

This is a Cultivation Technique that can control thunder—the four realms of the technique: Thunder Breaking Field, Nurturing Thunder Seed, Thunder Flower, and Harvesting Thunder Fruit, actually represent the early, middle, late stages of Foundation Establishment to Core Formation.

As the cultivator’s level increases, their ability to control thunder also grows stronger.

If it were another sect, this technique might not be highly valued—simply put, this technique enhances a cultivator’s affinity for thunder without much offensive power.

But the Jiushan Sect excels in talismanic magic!

The "Divine Sky Thunder Control True Method," coupled with Thunder Talisman, surprisingly has a synergistic effect greater than the sum of its parts, even earning the Jiushan Sect a considerable reputation before.

The Thunder Talisman Formation created by his Master is even more outrageous, as normally, people can’t unravel Thunder Talisman due to the uncontrollable and violent nature of Heavenly Thunder.

Without the controlling ability of the "Divine Sky Thunder Control True Method," the Thunder Talisman Formation might just blow up its creator.

Now, although Zheng Fa had not yet reached the realm of Thunder Breaking Field, the "Divine Sky Thunder Control True Method" was barely mastered. Now running it, the Spiritual Power inside his body seemed to connect slightly with the thunder around.

The Heavenly Thunder originally surging towards him also lessened by a third, providing him some relief.

Ahead.

Yan Wushuang and the other two stood amidst the thunder, turning back to look at Zheng Fa’s figure. Yan Wushuang frowned, seemingly puzzled.

"Brother Yan, what are you thinking?"

"I’m wondering... why exactly is Elder Han so interested in Zheng Fa?" Yan Wushuang explained, looking at Zheng Fa with some curiosity: "I’ve mentioned Elder Han’s personality before—he, um, doesn’t even regard you two highly."

The other two’s expressions also darkened upon hearing this.

As the True Inheritors of the Xuanwei Five Sects, they were rarely disregarded.

But Sunset Sword Immortal would.

Elder Han’s temperament was well-known throughout the Xuanwei Five Sects, and previously, the two could comfort themselves—

many people were looked down upon by the old man; what were they in comparison?

But now, Elder Han’s view of Zheng Fa had shifted from simply acknowledging him to overtly favoring him...

The two thought about it, and couldn’t help but feel a blend of curiosity and competitive spirit towards Zheng Fa.

Seeing Zheng Fa walking through the thunder, despite some emotional fluctuations, Chu Tianque nevertheless nodded seriously: "Zheng Fa’s realm and technique in Thunder Body Refinement are not bad, somewhat similar to you, Sister Xue... In a sect like Jiushan, calling him a prodigy is not an exaggeration."

Sister Xue smiled lightly, nodding gently.

Hearing these two speak, Yan Wushuang also understood—although they were praising Zheng Fa, there was a subtle sense of superiority and a hint of judgment in their tone.

He had to admit, he felt similarly:

Zheng Fa’s current performance wasn’t enough to surprise him, and even when he had dealings with Zheng Fa in the past, it wasn’t without some condescending intent.

But Elder Han...
