Chapter Thirty-Six: Surging Waves in Three Layers

  Whoosh! Splash!

  On the top of Qingyan Mountain, Ji Changkong's two arms swung up, hitting the air in mid-air. The air had a faint ripple that was visible to the naked eye. As he swung his arms with force, the ripples in the air became more and more pronounced, just like waves crashing against the shore, and even produced a corresponding sound.

  With a swing of his left arm, the palm of his hand slapped forward, and a boulder the size of a man shot out, its surface rippling like water as it hurtled towards that green rocky mountain.

  Boom!

  That piece of green rock, about the size of a person, suddenly shifted three meters backward after being hit by the waves.

  The mighty waves surged forward with unrelenting force, the ripples rolling back and forth, whipping up even greater waves that crashed against the green rocky mountain.

  Boom!

  That piece of bluestone, after being subjected to force, suddenly moved back another six or seven meters.

  The waves rolled back again, bringing with them even greater turmoil, and crashed once more against the ten-meter distant green rock.

  Boom!

  That boulder, as big as a man, suddenly flew up and fell straight down to the foot of the Qingyan Mountain.

  Surging waves crash, three layers of surging waves, one wave more fierce than the other!

  ……

  Ji Changkong withdrew his hand, his face filled with surprise. He really hadn't expected the Surging Tide to be so powerful. With one strike, it formed three waves of attack, like a tsunami, each wave more ferocious than the last, making it impossible to defend against.

  He lightly swung his right arm again, and the waves mysteriously appeared in the void, with the sound of crashing waves also spreading out.

  There are waves surging in the void, and the sound of waves is rising. This means that the shocking tide has been cultivated!

  As long as he continues to cultivate, with each breakthrough in his realm, the Shocking Waves can produce an additional layer of waves. At the Four Symbols Heavenly Realm, he can create four layers of Shocking Waves. At the Five Elements Heavenly Realm, with a single strike, he can form five layers of waves, and each wave is more ferocious than the last!

  ……

  "Longkong, Auntie has made some food for you, eat first and then practice." Ji Wanyun carried a bamboo basket to Longkong's side and arranged the cooked rice and dishes on a flat green rock.

  "Thank you, Aunt." Ji Changkong didn't stand on ceremony either, his stomach was really hungry, and he wolfed down everything, only then did he furrow his brow and ask Ji Yuanyun: "Aunt, how's that matter going?"

  "Alas, I don't know. The ones with the surname Luo and Zhao have already taken the yuan stone from Jia Rongfeng. They've all used up the yuan stones already, so it's no use thinking about returning them now. Your second and third uncles are currently negotiating with the Jia family, hoping to resolve the matter satisfactorily without provoking the Jia family's great anger." Ji Yuanyun said with a headache, looking worried and troubled.

  "Aunt, I brought back a lot of rare flowers and herbs from Yunmeng Daze, their value won't be worse than ordinary yuan stone. The things are all with you, if it's really not possible, we can just use those rare flowers and herbs to offset the debt to the Jia family." Ji Changkong furrowed his brow, thought for a moment, and continued: "Besides, isn't there still the Hei Yu Yuan Jing? The yuan stone that the Jia family gave to those two greedy women, can it compare to the Hei Yu Yuan Jing?"

  "Don't tell anyone about Hei Yu Yuan Jing's matter!" As soon as Ji Changkong mentioned Hei Yu Yuan Jing, Ji Wanyun's face changed slightly and she hastily said: "I and your second grandfather have never told anyone about the matters of Hei Yu Yuan Jing. This is a treasure of great value. If people find out that we have this thing, it may bring us big trouble!"

  "I understand." Ji Changkong's mind turned around and he immediately understood.

  "Alright, let's not mention those annoying things. Long Kong, how's your cultivation of the Surging Wave Technique coming along? It's been over a month, you should have already grasped the basics, right?" Ji Wan Yun asked with a smile.

  "Hehe, I've already mastered it." Ji Changkong smiled slightly and swung his left arm, creating a faint wave with a hint of roaring sound.

  "Heavens! How is this possible!" Ji Wanyun exclaimed, "A Tian Shi secret technique requires at least half a year to refine, and the more complex ones require even more time. That Shengtian Jue of yours doesn't seem like an ordinary Tian Shi secret technique, how could you possibly have refined it in just over a month?"

  The void presents a wavy shape, able to transmit the "gushing" sound of waves, which is indeed an omen that the turbulent tide has been transformed, and Ji Wanyun cannot help but believe it!

  "I don't know, I don't know why, but the parts you said were difficult to practice, seem to be not difficult at all for me." Ji Changkong shrugged and smiled as he explained: "For example, what you and Grandfather said about making the waves surge back, and then bringing in even more yuan energy to form an even bigger wave... You said it's impossible to grasp the trick in less than ten days or half a month, and that it takes at least two months to become proficient... But I, mastered it in just three days!"

  Hesitating for a moment, Ji Changkong asked tentatively: "Auntie, are you and Grandpa afraid that I'm too eager to succeed, so you're intentionally making it sound more difficult?"

  Ji Wanyun's face was filled with shock, and she stared blankly for a moment before shaking her head in exasperation. "Changkong, let me put it this way: even if your grandfather and I were to cultivate the Surging Wave Technique right now, we wouldn't be able to master it within a month! Good grief, you're either a genius or a freak - either you can't gather spiritual energy for 17 years, or once you do, you have to go and scare people to death. I really don't know what to say about you!"

  "Auntie, I'm full, you go ahead and take care of your things." Ji Changkong smiled and urged Ji Yuanyun to hurry back.

  As soon as Ji Wan Yun left, Ji Chang Kong immediately took out the Heavenly Thunder Manual and carefully read its contents.

  When Mo Yunyi gave him the Tianlei Jing and Jingtian Decisive, he had said that it was not possible to cultivate two Tian Shi secret techniques at the same time. Ji Changkong also did as Mo Yunyi said, but now that his Jingtian Decisive has been cultivated to perfection, he can naturally start cultivating Tianlei Jing.

  The yuan force is the source of power between heaven and earth, and the secret technique refers to various magical uses of the yuan force. Some secret techniques can transform the yuan force into various special powers, such as fire power, ice-cold power, dark power, etc. The heavenly thunderbolt is one such secret technique that can transform the yuan force in a person's body into fierce lightning power.

  Because the power of thunder has always been manipulated by one of the Four Holy Beasts, the Azure Dragon, in order to fully exert the power of Heavenly Thunderbolt, one's cultivation realm must reach the Four Symbols Heaven and communicate with the Holy Beast Azure Dragon.

  Of course, even if the yuan force cannot be converted into thunder and lightning power, Tianlei Jing can also release fierce explosive power, which can also form a fierce attack.

  After studying carefully for half a day, Ji Changkong began to practice according to the records of Tianlei Jin. The first step in practicing Tianlei Jin is to form three qi clusters in the body, also known as Tianlei field, which are located at the chest, above the navel, and below the navel respectively.

  Three Thunder Fields present in a gas-like state, suitable for gathering the body's Yuan Force. After communicating with the Holy Beast Qing Long, the three Thunder Fields can also convert Yuan Force into Thunder Power.

  Tian Lei Hou, Tian Lei Bao, and Tian Lei Bian are three ways of exerting force, all of which require the completion of three Tian Lei fields. Therefore, to cultivate Tian Lei Qi, one must first form three Tian Lei fields within their body.

  Sitting cross-legged at a secluded and narrow cave entrance on the waist of Qingyan Mountain, Ji Changkong used the method described by Tian Lei to mobilize his internal yuan force.

  Slowly, in the chest, navel, and lower abdomen, three fist-sized gas masses formed. The three gas masses constantly changed and expanded, causing Ji Changkong's chest, upper abdomen, and lower abdomen to bulge one after another.

  Where the heart goes, yuan power arrives immediately. With Ji Changkong's changing thoughts, the yuan power in his body also changed into various shapes.

  As his body swelled up, the three air masses inside Kagome's body gradually expanded and grew larger.
