Chapter 676 Break Through Again
Xiang Nan's attention was already focused on the red clouds flame thunder.
The 15th ranked Divine Lightning was indeed powerful. Xiang Nan stood there, at least four to five hundred meters away from the Red Cloud Fire Lightning in the center of the abyss. However, he could already feel the power of the lightning elements in the air.
If one looked closely, one would discover that this red cloud flame thunder actually had two different colors.
The divine lightning itself looked similar to the sun and was a bright yellow color. On the other hand, the surface of the divine lightning was surrounded by a dense, fog-like red light. At first glance, the divine lightning would cause people's vision to deviate from the red color of the divine lightning.
Xiang Nan stood in front of the Red Cloud Flame Lightning and felt that the White Flame Lightning in his spiritual sea had quieted down. It was as if the White Flame Lightning had also fallen into hibernation after encountering a divine lightning of a higher status.
Xiang Nan had the guts to praise him and said, "This is truly amazing."
"However, what is the use of this abyss? Was it created from the very beginning, or was it created by the Red Cloud Fire Lightning, or was it created artificially?"
The First Prince looked at Xiang Nan and said, "I have a question for you first. How did you know that our Nine Firmaments Imperial Clan possesses divine lightning? Furthermore, you clearly know that it is the 15th ranked Red Cloud Fire Lightning."
Xiang Nan said, "The last time I went to Mr. Rihua's place to ask for words, he mentioned something when we were chatting."
"Yes, that's right." The First Prince nodded and said, "There is still a lot of history regarding this abyss."
"I'm afraid you don't know that the World Devastating Divine Lightning needs to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth just like living beings. Especially when the divine lightning releases lightning power in large quantities, it needs more spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish itself."
"This abyss leads down to the north and south dragon veins. When it releases the power of lightning to protect the Nine Firmaments Imperial Palace, a massive amount of spiritual energy will surge out from the abyss and be absorbed by the divine lightning."
Xiang Nan nodded silently. Of course, he knew that when he used the White Flame Lightning, the lightning would absorb his martial artist Yuan Qi.
The First Prince said, "I promised you that I would leave you alone with the divine lightning, but I must advise you not to do anything to this divine lightning."
"This Red Cloud Fire Lightning is powerful. If you don't do it well, you will lose your life."
"Alright, you can slowly study it yourself. When you're ready to leave, just knock on the stone door."
With that, the First Prince left this place, and the stone door behind him closed with a rumble.
"Mm … he thought I was going to study divine lightning." Xiang Nan nodded silently.
He first used his Lightning Photoelectric Eye and carefully searched the area. After confirming that there were no peeping items like the Eagle's Eye, he finally relaxed.
He sat down cross-legged and took out the rebound Lightning Heavenly Fire technique and placed it on the ground.
The Lightning Heavenly Fire technique, like the Golden Body Unbreakable technique, required external objects to cultivate. The difference was that the Golden Body Unbreakable technique relied on the blood of demonic beasts, while the Lightning Heavenly Fire could only accept the power of divine lightning.
"Cultivating this technique should start from the 22nd ranked Red Devil Blood Lightning."
"This time, I only want to borrow the power of the Red Devil Blood Thunder, not absorb it. It shouldn't harm the Dragon Blood Saber."
Xiang Nan stabbed the Dragon Blood Saber into the ground beside him and summoned a wisp of red lightning from within with the Nine Transformations of Thunder.
Afterwards, he began to circulate the first level of the Lightning Heavenly Fire Technique.
That blood-red bolt of lightning wrapped around his body.
As the cultivation technique circulated, blood-red lightning continuously shocked Xiang Nan's body and entered his body, swiftly swimming through his meridians.
Xiang Nan originally thought that it would take him at least half an hour to cultivate this first-level incantation.
But in reality, he succeeded in less than ten minutes.
"So fast!" Xiang Nan opened his eyes and was slightly surprised.
However, after thinking for a moment, he understood that he possessed the Divine Grade Lightning Mai Innate Skill, and this cultivation technique was also of the Lightning meridians attribute. The power he needed to borrow was the World Devastating Divine Lightning.
Everything that was needed in the entire process was made up of lightning elements, and it had nothing to do with any other elements.
This gave full play to Xiang Nan's heaven-defying divine talent.
After Xiang Nan reached the first level, he spread out his right palm and refined his Qi into lightning. He discovered that the thunderball jumping in his palm was directly a flaming thunderbolt. Furthermore, the flaming thunderbolt was blood red.
Xiang Nan muttered to himself, "In the past, when I refined Qi into lightning, what I forced out was pure lightning power. Now, because of the cultivation method, the lightning power has been completely converted into flames and lightning."
"This way, there will be one step less. It's quite convenient."
Xiang Nan pondered for a moment before starting to cultivate the second level of the incantation.
This time, he sealed the Red Devil Blood Lightning back into the Dragon Blood Saber. Following that, his right hand lightly trembled and the lightning of the White Flame Lightning jumped out of his palm.
He circled the lightning around his body a few times before drilling into his meridians and following his Yuan Qi to temper and swim.
About twenty minutes later, the second level of the Heavenly Flame Mantra had been completed.
At this moment, Xiang Nan could clearly feel that his Yuan Qi had greatly increased!
By the time he finished practicing the second layer, his Yuan Qi had already reached an astonishing four times its strength.
This strength had already surpassed the increase in Yuan Qi he had obtained from borrowing the Dragon Blood Saber.
"Then, that's it." Xiang Nan raised his head and looked at Red Cloud Fire Lightning.
"Should we absorb it first or refine it first?" Xiang Nan pondered for a moment.
In the end, he chose to absorb it first. After absorbing it, his realm would increase to a certain extent, and his resistance to electricity would also increase.
Xiang Nan used the Nine Transformations of Thunder to draw an arc from the burning red clouds.
The electric arc was as hot as the sun, turning bright yellow, emitting an incomparable amount of lightning power.
Xiang Nan took a deep breath. He waved his hand and sucked the arc of the red clouds flame lightning into his body.
At this moment, Xiang Nan's entire body was frozen by lightning. His body stiffened and floated up into the air. The red clouds of lightning in his body spread out into a huge net of lightning, wrapping around Xiang Nan.
The indescribable pain caused cold sweat to drip down Xiang Nan's forehead, and all the muscles in his body tensed up.
It had been a long time since he had experienced such intense electric shock pain. It was as if this was the first time he had absorbed the white flame lightning.
"As expected of the Red Cloud Fire Lightning … My current lightning resistance is already so strong, yet I still feel this kind of pain."
Xiang Nan gritted his teeth and used the Nine Transformations of Thunder to slowly refine and absorb the power of the Red Cloud Fire Lightning.
At the same time, his cultivation base began to increase.
His realm had risen from the second level of the Heavenly Yuan Realm to the third level of the Heavenly Yuan Realm.
At this point, he felt that he was almost unable to withstand the destructive power of the Red Cloud Fire Lightning, and his physical body began to disintegrate in the "most common" state.
His skin cracked into pieces and slowly peeled off.
"Hold on, you must hold on!" Xiang Nan gritted his teeth and frantically activated the Nine Transformations of Thunder. His eyes turned red, and two lines of blood and tears flowed down.
As for his cultivation, it slowly rose from the third level of the Heavenly Yuan Realm to the fourth level of the Heavenly Yuan Realm!
