Martial Research Master-Chapter 61

Chapter 61: 9 Thunder body art

Li Meng (Long Tao) was currently residing in his mansion. He had already broken through the Qi master realm and it was time to go meet his master, but he wanted to delay it a bit. He needs to make sure that his body-nature is not exposed. Long Tao currently posed the omni elemental body. It was one of the mortal rank bodies in the world. Mortal rank bodies are what came after level 6 of natural body. They were high affinity body types with special powers that their body provides them. Also, he needed to think about, what level of proficiency is he going to show Bu Puti. He knew that his master appreciated him dearly and will stop at nothing to help him grow in cultivation. Currently what Long Tao needed was attack and secret arts from the thunder-god academy. It was the reason he had shown the body type that was intimate with the thunder element. Long Tao had already managed to get hold of lot of techniques and he got them from the Crimson Lord world and the three scriptures along with what the will provided him. But What he wanted to experiment and be proficient in were the arts of normal people. He didn’t want to unnecessarily expose his true strength.

Li Meng proceeded towards his master’s dwelling. Upon reaching the door, he bowed down and asked for permission to enter. The gate opened and Li Meng was walking inside the dwelling. Bu Puti was seated in the middle and there was another figure beside him, seeing whom, Long Tao was shocked. His master Qin Wentian was here. But why? Long Tao tried to calm his mind down upon seeing his other master and approached Bu Puti. Upon Reaching in front of him, he bowed in respect” Disciple greets master”. Bu Puti showed appreciation in his eyes and then pointed at Qin Wentian and said” Come greet my brother Qin. He is a Weapon forger and you might be knowing the force he belongs to. He is the grand elder of the Firmament palace.”. Long Tao looked surprised and then bowed to Qin Wentian” Junior greets senior Forge King.” Qin Wentian was surprised to see someone knowing his title out of the persons who were close to him. “No need to be surprised senior. You and I have quite a relation, which you might not be aware of.” Both Qin Wentian and Bu Puti looked curious about the topic.” Senior is the master of my elder brother.”. Qin Wentian was shocked as he didn’t know any person who fit the description of Li Meng’s elder brother, but suddenly he remembered a silhouette who was recently accepted in his apprenticeship.

“Qin Weng is your elder brother!”. Li Meng showed up a smile and nodded.” He and I along with another 4 people are brothers by death. We have overcome hardships together and are also very close to each other. Brother Qin messaged me about senior accepting him as his disciple. I am very thankful of senior to have shown such favour to my brother. He really is a genius in forging.” Qin Wentian understood where this was coming from. He didn’t expect that Qin Weng had such relations here and the person in front of him was also quite talented. Bu Puti had told him about his disciple and it was no less adequate than Qin Weng. No Doubt they complement each other so much and were brothers by death. He was even more excited now for the presentation of what he had brought with him. This was a kind of nephew of his and also the disciple of his friend. Please visit f𝗿e𝗲𝘄𝚎𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫ℯl. c𝗼𝚖

“Haahaha, I never expected us brothers to have accepted disciples who were so lose to each other. Fate really plays a great game.” . Qin Wentian was also in a good mood. He took out a storage ring and gave it to Li Meng.” Your uncle here has forged you a set of weapons. Hope you like it.”. Long Tao put his aura into the ring and the content poured out. A large Hammer and a breath-taking sword came into view. Both of these weapons were of level 3 (for Qi generals). He didn’t expect his master to have prepared such a gift and the one who forged it was his other master. This really helped the case a lot. Long Tao was trying to find a source for his weapons. Now he had a great set. At the moment, Qin Wentian again noticed something. ” you are also a body cultivator like Qin Weng.”. Li Meng had forgotten to hide the aura and hence was caught. He smiled and said” Replying to senior, all six of us brother have cultivate din the path of body. We even have a ranking of who have reached the highest extent. Our eldest brother has the highest achievement in this realm.”. Qin Wentian was shocked. All of the six people were body cultivators too. This was like a highly talented group. “May I know the name of your eldest brother?”. “His name is Long Tao senior. He is the second place of the royal gathering. He is currently stationed in the royal army of the Jiao country and had joined the North-eastern region.”. Qin Wentian was silent for some time again “North-eastern regions you say. Then I might have a meet with him in future.”. Li Meng said “every year we brothers gather together to compete within ourselves. Our talent in cultivation is quite similar and all of us have different elemental affinities. All we could do is improve on the skills we learn. The winner of the yearly event of ours, taken with him half the possession of the rest of the 5.” Qin Wentian and Bu Puti looked at each other with surprise. Suddenly an aura of competitiveness arose from both of their eyes. Li Meng’s back was now drenched in sweat. He might have created a ground for competition this time. After a short conversation, Qin Wentian got up and left.

Bu Puti and Li Meng were left alone in his dwelling now. “I didn’t expect your elder brother to be the student of Qin Wentian. Boy when is the next annual meeting of yours?”. “It is in 6 months “. “I don’t know how to fare it, but you need to crush your brothers and win the meeting, Am I clear?”. Long Tao nodded. Bu Puti then asked him to sit on the couch beside him.” You have successfully managed to break-through the QI master realm, which is a great news. I am going to tell you about something and you are going to listen very carefully. You should have already guessed that thunder-god hall is not a power from these regions. We are the subsidiary power of a greater organisation. The name will be enclosed to you in due time. The power that we originate from, holds a yearly conference, for the subsidiaries, where various fraction competes with the main fraction’s disciples. The rankers of the gathering are highly rewarded and get a chance to win not only cultivation resources but a chance to become the disciples of the elders from the main branch. Also, the next gathering is also marking a great occasion and the main branch is going to increase the resources by a hell lot. I want you to be one of the rankers at least. Since the competition has started the minimum cultivation of the one who rank high is at the peak of Mid-level Qi masters. Lets not even talk about the top 100. All of them are said to be monsters of peak Advance level Qi master. The top 10 are generally QI generals. The competition is set up so that only those under 20 can participate. You should be able to understand what a under 20 Qi generals signify right. That is how advance the cultivation practices of the main branch are. You need to prepare and give your best in the next 1 year. I will provide you with all the resources you will require. You are to break-through at least the advance level Qi master in the next 1 year.” Bu Puti handed a book to Long Tao. 9 lightning body art. “This is a body refining art that you need to practice. The details are provided inside. I hope you will not let down my expectation from you. The following body refining art uses the thunder energy to forge your body again and again. The basic requirement to practice it is to be compatible with Thunder element and the practitioner should have refined his/her body in thunder once. The body art is something that was taken from the core section of the force we belong to. You are to not only practice it, but before the competition finally commences, I want you to have completed 2 to 3 rotations. Practicing it requires a lot of thunder energy. From what I expect, and my estimation given your results in the thunder pool, you would be able to reach the 3rd rotation while training in the thunder pool. After that you will require a more powerful thunder energy source. How far do you think you can go in this particular art.” Li Meng studied it for sometime and found it similar to the 12 forges of death? The only difference was the fact that 12 forges use Hell Qi and this art used the thunder Qi. He was confident of completing it to at least 4-5 cycle before entering the competitions.” I am confident in completing it but I don’t understand the things I will gain after practicing it master.”. Bu Puti sighed. His disciple was a really greedy one. “first of all, if you manage to complete it, you will attract more attention of the elders of the power I belong to. Secondly, I want to propose a bet with you.”. Li Meng’s eyes shone with brightness. “If you are able to complete the 2nd cycle, I will give you a set of body refining and cultivation resources. If you manage to complete the third cycle, I will give you another 10 thunder pills along with the body refining resources. If you were able to complete tit to the 4th cycle, I will add a weapon to the combo. Complete 5th cycle and you will get another 20 thunder pills.”. Li Meng’s eyes shone. Thunder pills were the resources that were perfect for the cultivation of innate thunder element and are quite potent. If he gest his hands on those, he would be able to fasten the cycle of completion of the 9-thunder body art. “Master I have query.”. “what is it?”. Long Tao in a serious expression asked “What if I manage to complete 6 cycles or more?”. Bu Puti laughed out loud. “The fastest cultivation ever recorded in the history of the art within a year, was a genius of the force who managed to complete 6 rotations within a year. He managed to break-through 6 cultivation realms within that year too. The person is the current Sect master of that power. If you, by any chance, were able to complete the 6th cycle within this year, I will add a set of 10 mad thunder pill and another Qi general rank weapon. Also, if you do manage to complete the 6th cycle, you most probably will be directly accepted as the disciple of an elder and even attract the attention of the sect master.”. Li Meng was silent now. 1 year from now meant a total of 4 years for him. He had already managed to achieve omni-element body. He was confident that he could break-though Qi general in a year and his master was making a foolish bet now.” As you wish master. Any further instruction for this disciple.”.

BU Puti handed another two manuals to Long Tao.” You have a good affinity towards the thunder element and are adept in both swords and hammer. I don’t have any particular insights in swords; hence you can choose an art yourself from the sect’s library. As per hammer, I will personally guide you. You are to practice with me from now on. These are a set of hammer arts and movement art. The most deranged part of any hammer user is their decreased speed. They are not fast enough due to the characteristics of their weapon. Hence you are to learn a movement technique. This is called the shadow steps. It compensates for our lack of speed while using the hammer. The hammer art in your hand is called, Thunder smasher. You are to learn these two arts as complementary to each other. Also, it would be better if you start the cultivation of these two together. The schedule you are to follow is to be decided by you, but I would ask to balance all three as they complement each other perfectly and make a complete meal. The 9-thunder body provides defence. The shadow step helps in movement and you have thunder smasher as the attack art. What is your currently level of intent in Hammer? You are to practice until you reach at least intermediate of 1st level.” Li Meng smiled.” I have a surprise for you master.” He closed his eyes and a aura radiated from him making the whole atmosphere incredibly happy. Bu Puti was petrified at first. Then his expression changed from shock to that of extreme delight. “Advance level of 1st stage Hammer intent, I have no been let down by the heavens. “He instantly took out another small box from his ring and handed it to Long Tao.” Take this brat. It is the reward for your cultivation achievements until now. “Li Meng opened the small container and found 10 pieces of stone. He was shocked to see it.” Top grade spirit stone.” Each top-grade spirit stone was equivalent to 100o middle grade spirit stones and Bu Puti gave him 10. He instantly bowed to Bu Puti and said ” I will not let master down in the up coming year.”
