Chapter 519: Chapter 516: Accelerate

To practice the Thunder Blade Technique, one must first understand the intent of thunder.

Thunder, the pivot of heaven and earth, the genesis of all living things, the transformation of Yin and Yang, life and death.

Comprehend the intent of thunder, then practice the Thunder Blade Technique, combining the mental realm and saber form to achieve effect.

Thunderbolt Nine Forms, Thunderbolt Eighteen Forms, thirty-six forms, up to seventy-two forms.

The Thunderbolt Nine Forms are the Nine Changes of Thunder, each transformation is a variation of thunder.

...

The ultimate Thunderbolt Seventy Two Forms encompass all transformations of heaven and earth within them.

These moves are the mysteries arising from the evolution of thunder; without a corresponding mental realm, they are nothing but mere flourishes.

Chu Zhiyuan closed his eyes, recalling the scene when he first understood the way of reality and illusion, the way of speed.

Moments later, he opened his eyes, shining brightly, sharp and penetrating.

Vague zigzag-shaped lightning flickered in his eyes.

Then, he floated to the window and landed in the center of the courtyard.

Zou Fang was practicing with eyes closed outside the door; hearing the movement, he opened his eyes.

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand, signaling him to continue practicing, already drawing the sword.

The Bright Moon Saber moved slowly.

Zou Fang suddenly felt as though a flash of lightning had passed by.

The Bright Moon Saber seemed to slash through the silent sky filled with dark clouds like lightning.

One after another.

The lightning was various zigzag shapes; he never imagined lightning could have so many variations.

The Bright Moon Saber’s speed was not fast, yet it gave him the feeling of lightning passing through.

Each lightning strike had not disappeared before the next appeared.

Eventually, countless lightning crisscrossed, as if forming an electric grid everywhere, encompassing all.

The overwhelming lightning suddenly vanished.

Chu Zhiyuan stood still, holding the Bright Moon Saber.

A purple lightning jumped incessantly between his body and the Bright Moon Saber.

Zou Fang was shocked.

Could this be calling down the thunder?

Chu Zhiyuan swung the saber again.

This time, his figure flickered, almost disappearing, the Bright Moon Saber also vanished, leaving only purple lightning flashing.

One purple lightning after another crisscrossed, increasing in number, eventually turning into a sheet of lightning, brilliant and dazzling, impossible to look at directly.

Later, the lightning became fuller, forming a thunder pond.

Zou Fang felt his hair standing on end, his clothes fluttering, about to be drawn into the thunder pond.

He held his ground, operating his energy to protect himself, though the difference was negligible.

In front of this thunder pool, he was vulnerable, slowly moving towards it.

Trying to embed his feet into the green bricks but could not, caught by the power emitted from the thunder pond, floating upwards.

The next moment, the thunder pond disappeared.

Residual lightning flashed in Zou Fang’s eyes.

He breathed a sigh of relief, still filled with lingering fear.

Chu Zhiyuan opened his eyes, the purple glow flickering, slowly retracting.

He shook his head.

This Thunder Blade Technique is a method for rapid mastery; he practiced at the realm of Sword God, achieving effortlessly.

Unfortunately, the Thunder Blade Technique was not as he imagined.

It cannot break through the void, nor open up space.

The true opening of space is not achieved by the Thunder Blade Technique but by that Heavenly Blade.

Reaching the ultimate in the Thunder Blade Technique leads to the Sword God.

The essence of the Thunder Blade Technique is not immortality, but the invincible power of slaughter.

It is the saber of slaughter: you die, I live; its upper limit and concept are inferior to the Glazed Blade Scripture.

But the Thunder Blade Technique is not without merits.

Thunder can slay enemies and refine the body.

Draw a wisp of thunder power to temper the body, strengthen the body.

This method’s advantage is quick results and rapid improvement.

Refine again and again until no more can be refined, no stronger can be strengthened.

In that moment, he felt his body had strengthened another level, his Refining Claw improved another notch, the effect was rapid.

Compared to it, the Glazed Blade Scripture emphasizes the unity of saber and man in body refinement, not solely strengthening.

Chu Zhiyuan experienced the differences and similarities, smiling.

The Thunder Blade Technique has one other greatest advantage: enhancing speed.

Not only for Qinggong but also for moves.

Integrating the thunder power into spiritual power, the current Qinggong speed has at least doubled.

A rising sun, a bright moon, then a cluster of purple light appeared in the void of his mind.

Each does not interfere with the other.

——

During breakfast at the Prince Qing Mansion, the family of four sat at the table eating.

Chu Minghou had a solemn expression.

Bai Ningshuang shook her head, ”Prince, after returning to the mansion, just leave aside Court matters, don’t bother with them.”

”Sigh...” Chu Minghou shook his head, ”How can I ignore them?”

Chu Zhiyuan asked, ”What’s going on in Court?”

”We received news that Da Meng and Da Zhen are negotiating privately, even planning an alliance through marriage.”

”Hmm——?”

”Da Meng and Da Zhen are bypassing us, negotiating directly.” Chu Minghou shook his head, ”The Court’s idea is for the three sides to negotiate.”

Chu Zhiyuan snorted, ”Da Meng has ill intentions.”

Chu Minghou nodded, ”Indeed.”

”Then there’s no need to negotiate more with Da Meng, just stop it directly.”

”If we really stop negotiating with Da Meng...” Chu Minghou hesitated, ”I’m afraid it will be more troublesome.”

”Worried that Da Meng and Da Zhen will join forces against us?”

”Exactly.”

Chu Zhiyuan thought, picked up a piece of Ice Demon Beast meat, and slowly chewed.

Chu Yi asked, ”Father, then should the Court turn to Da Zhen?”

Chu Minghou shook his head, ”Da Zhen does not confess.”

Chu Yi snorted, ”Faithless and unjust, Da Zhen is that kind of villain.”

Chu Minghou nodded, ”Fickle and indecisive, Da Zhen has always been this way.”

Chu Zhiyuan pondered, slowly said, ”Da Zhen feels the pressure and threat now.”

The Grandmasters of Da Jing are rapidly increasing, especially in the military.

This greatly impacts the military strength.

The Phoenix Camp and Martial Arts Hall Grandmasters emerge one after another, Da Zhen and Da Meng must be watching.

Chu Minghou said, ”We don’t trust Da Zhen, Da Zhen doesn’t trust us either.”

Even if the two courts sign an alliance and jointly develop Da Zhen’s new Secret Land.

They still cannot truly trust each other.

After all, they know each other’s affairs inside out after joining and splitting so many times.

Ceasefire is to prepare for the next war.

There will never be eternal peace; wars will always occur.

”Da Zhen...is playing tricks now,” Chu Zhiyuan slowly said.

He had actually already seen through it.

The war between Da Zhen and Da Jing is also necessary for both courts to maintain their rule.

When domestic conflicts intensify to a certain degree, they are transferred and resolved through war.

Cleansing themselves through war to maintain the kingdom’s stability.

Chu Zhiyuan did not know how many had seen through this layer.

But regardless, within this game, one can only be swept forward.

Chu Yi said, ”Brother, if the fight truly breaks out and Da Meng joins forces with Da Zhen, we cannot win.”

Chu Zhiyuan slowly said, ”Looking at it now, we indeed cannot win, but ten years later, it may be different.”

Even if we could defeat Da Zhen, it is impossible to destroy and swallow Da Zhen.

Hence, the two courts have always been in a cycle of fighting and ceasing, like a married couple.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Father, Da Zhen wants to meddle with Phoenix Camp and Martial Arts Hall.”

”Hmm—?” Chu Minghou was startled.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Just watch, they’ll propose involving Martial Arts Hall and Phoenix Camp.”

Chu Minghou slowly said, ”If they truly want to interfere with Martial Arts Hall and Phoenix Camp, Court will never agree.”

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

This cannot be certain.

If Da Jing truly wants to dominate the world, not only Da Meng but Da Zhen will also not agree.

He suspects that eventually, the Court will have to compromise, exchanging positions in Martial Arts Hall or Phoenix Camp for some gains.
