Chapter 81 81: Thundercloud Monarch Ar





"This soundwaves are Spirit Resonances! But Spirit Resonances could only come from Heaven Rank Treasures and Artifacts! Could it be the extremely valuable treasure that was left behind by the Thundercloud Kings were not the Noble Test Maker but the entire Noble Test Center?!" The First Elder of the Alchemy Academy was becoming increasingly shocked as his deduced such thoughts.


"The thunderclouds and lightning vortex in the sky resembles the records regarding the ancient art of the Thundercloud Kings! The Mid Heaven Rank Technique, the Thundercloud Monarch Art!" Charlton Meadows said with a dumbfounded expression. He had vast knowledge regarding the history of the city due to the amazing resources of his clan that allowed him to gain access to ancient records about the Thundercloud Kings.


Suddenly, near the vortex, the thunder and lightning resonated and concentrated to four points, coalescing into four identical humanoid figures. After the formation of the four figures, more lightning, clouds and thunders started to agglomerate towards the four humanoids. Not long after, armors and weapons started to surface from the bodies of the four figures.


The four figures started to have distinctions from one another and appeared more corporeal than before. They wore different armors and used different weapons. The figure in the north had a falcon-based armor and a saber that was shaped like wings of a falcon. The figure in the south wore a cheetah-looking armor with claws as his weapons. In the east, the figure had an armor and a lance with the scales and designs of a sailfish while in the west, the figure had an armor than was seemingly made from tiger beetles with its horns as his weapons.


They stood below the vortex majestically and raised their weapons as though they were celebrating a reunion and greeting each other. The four figures then looked down at the test center like lightning sovereigns of the high heavens.


"What\'s happening?!"


"What are those? Are those figures even humans?"


"No, it\'s the four Thundercloud Kings! Look at the north, that\'s Lightning Falcon King, the strongest of the four! At the east, that\'s Electric Sailfish King while at the West, that\'s Tigerspark Beetle King! Lastly, the fastest among them, Thunderbolt Cheetah King!" A wise old man clarified.


"Those are the Four Thundercloud Kings?! How could they still emerge if they were known to be dead 5,000 years ago?!" A commoner said.


"I don\'t know either." The one closest to him was trembling as he uttered those words.


The crowd was trembling from fright due to the shocking mysterious phenomenon that was currently unfolding right before their eyes but it did not only end there. Another mysterious phenomenon was also unfolding in junction with the appearance of the four figures in the sky.


The natural energy and spirit energy that were quietly flowing within and around the vicinity of the city were being absorbed into the Noble Test Center! It started to move in a spiralling fashion after moving twords the square outside the Noble Test Center. The natural and spirit energy\'s movement were similar to a vast whirlpool! The concentration reached the extent where it could be seen in the naked eye!


...


The commoners were panicking and acting hysterically due to being oblivious of what was currently happening in the city. Having no knowledge of this mysterious phenomenon, these resulted to different speculations that only worsened the situation of the commoners.


"Does the heaven want to end us already?" An old man slowly said with a terrified face. He could not fathom what was currently happening in the city.


"A...a.... Is it the end of the world?" A child cried out in despair.


"Don\'t worry, my boy. Someone will save us.


....


At the Thunder Grand Clan Residence...


Inside the dazzlingly extravagant and humungous manor, within the main hall, Zachary Thunder was seating on the Patriarch Seat of the Clan. He was wearing a royal robe adorned with dancing lightning serpents that accentuated the Thunder Clan crest. He was sitting calmly when the two phenomena occurred!


"Ha... How is this possible?! Grand Rising Lightning?! Heavenly​ Blessing?! Does this mean someone is currently creating a Heaven Rank Technique and also achieved a perfect score?!" The Thunder Clan Patriarch Zachary widened his eyes that were focused to the Noble Test Center.


"What the heck is happening in the Noble Test Center?!" Zachary suspiciously thought.


"Servants, attend to me! I want you to prepare a carriage right now! I want to go to the Noble Test Center!" Zachary commanded with a wave of his sleeves.


"Yes, my lord." The attendants was then able to easily bring a carriage and left with Zachary Thunder.


....


At the Premier Hall...


"What the hell is happening?! The emergence of a Grand Rising Lightning and the occurrence of a Heavenly Blessing?! Even incarnations of the Thundercloud Kings?! What type of monstrosity of a genius is appearing in this city?!" Hallmaster Azelmek could not contain his shock and curse the heavens for granting a genius a talent that would be able to cause a world-shaking commotion!


"Yes, sir! It\'s coming from the Noble Test Center. Do you want to go sir? We have already prepared a ride just in case you want to go." Sheldon reported elaborately.


"Of course! Ready the vehicle! We\'re going now!" Azelmek hurriedly commanded.


"Yes, sir!!" Sheldon replied in compliance.


....


Similar scenes played out from different powers like the Thousand Treasure Pavilion, Alchemy Academy, Moonlight Paradise, Pill Hall, Enchanted Gardens, and many more. All of the head-level figures of every single one of these powers converged to the Noble Test Center. Even the departed powers like the Fleeting Wood Residence could not help but leave behind a high-level individual like the Head Butler of the residence.


In less than minutes, the countless powers moved in and arrived at the Noble Test Center. The moment they arrived was the moment where the four Thundercloud Kings pointed down their weapons to a central point and the lightning and thunder vortex ejected an extremely devastating lightning that slithered like a dragon.


The moment where the lighting dragon intersected with the central point of the weapons was also the moment where it transformed into a large circular diagram that was essentially made up of lightning and thunder!


It was also at this very moment that the whirlpool of energy below disappeared, no, rather it was absorbed into a single point where it invited a similar diagram of lightning and thunder. The two diagrams where strangely the same, however, there was a fundamental difference on how it was perceived and formulated than the diagram below the incarnations of the four Thundercloud Kings!


....


"What?! Are they the same technique?!" A wise sage tried to analyze the two diagrams because there was an uncanny resemblance between the two.


"No, they may be similar but they are essentially different. Although if we were to compare, the diagram below the kings is more stronger but the diagram slightly above the Noble Test Center is slightly more profound and broader." Another expert appraised with high evaluation.


"That couldn\'t be right? Why do I get the feeling that the diagram slightly above the test center is derived and formulated from the diagram below the kings?!" An eccentric could not help but think out loud.


"What?!" The crowd of experts was even more shocked because the more they observed and scanned the diagrams, the more they felt that the eccentric\'s proposition was correct!


....


Also at the same time, both diagrams were absorbed into the Test Center which also caused calming of the sky and the city!


"Both got absorbed into the test center?!"


The crowd could only wait for further results because everything that was happening today was really beyond bizzare.


....


Inside the test center, several minutes earlier...


Dylan was the only participant remaining. On the desk, in front of him, was the finished derivation of the technique of the Thundercloud Kings. It gained recognition of the heavens and was blessed to be categorized as a Heaven Rank Technique. He named​ this technique the Tyrannical Thunderbolt Clouds Art. It was his own interpretation of the strongest technique of the city.


"Hahaha, I finally succeeded! I expect nothing less from the Thundercloud​ Kings! A Low Heaven Rank Technique!" Dylan heartily laughed in his accomplishments as he held a bundle of paper. This bundle of paper was from the six extra sheet that were provided in the test. He cut them into four sections which bisected them into the size of a regular bond paper.


Dylan was proud of himself being able to accomplish something that no one had one in the past. He looked at his finished product and casually skimmed through the text he wrote himself. They were all systematically organized into chapters and all had detailed descriptions for each chapter.


"Oh right! I have yet to finish the test." Dylan immediately picked up and finished writing his answer. Then, placed it to the small table opposite to his table and faced the wall. The large sheets of test paper was sucked to the wall and disappeared.


After his test papers disappeared, the bundle of papers he left on the table were floating in mid-air and was absorbing immeasurable amount of energy! The energy condensed a cover and it had the technique\'s name inscribed onto it, "Tyrannical Thunderbolt Clouds Art". Suddenly, it shot out the foundation diagram which he formulated and permeated to the ceiling.


"What the heck?!" Dylan was dumbfounded when he saw the scene that was unfolding right before his eyes.


Subsequently, two similar diagrams entered the room Dylan was at. This caused Dylan to feel even more stunned! He was still able to recognize his Tyrannical Thunderbolt Clouds Art but he was unable to recognize the other art.


"Could it be that this other one is the Inheritance of the Thundercloud Kings? Wait, so the inheritance was not deriving a technique? This is too confusing." Dylan mentally deliberated. As Dylan was thinking like this, the two diagrams above him suddenly shot towards his forehead. All the information regarding the two were imprinted to his mind.


The other technique was called Thundercloud Monarch Art and was a Mid Heaven Rank Technique. This technique had four skills all were derived from the favorite spirit beasts of the four Thundercloud Kings. The most outstanding thing about this technique was that it could be stacked together and executed in unison. If the user achieves Grand Perfection mastery of this skill, he would be able to stack all four techniques and release an attack capable of overpowering a High Heaven Rank Technique and could even be comparable to a Peak Heaven Rank Technique!


The Thundercloud Monarch Art did not only contain a whole set of skills, it also contained some of the memories of the Thundercloud Kings. Dylan learned from these memory fragments that the inheritance ceremony is performed through creating one\'s own version of the Thundercloud Kings. The level of this technique must be at least at the High Earth Rank Technique! The difficulty of such a test was clear since it was really difficult to create a technique and not many experts are lucky enough to create a technique that would be their trademark even after their death.


"So that\'s how it was..." Dylan contemplated himself because the stringency of such a test was beyond difficult but Saints are really aloof and eccentric existences; they would not allow​ any junior with insufficient talent to cultivate their techniques.


Dylan decided to investigate the memories even further.


....


When he opened the last fragment, he saw five figures suspended in mid-air that was facing two other individuals who was similarly floating. There were two armies that were fighting below and it was carnage and chaos down there. Blood was spilled constantly and weapons fiercely clashed with each other continuously.


"A war?" Dylan was stunned when he saw this scene.


In the sky, a battle had clearly happened between the two opposing sides but the side who seemed to be at a disadvantage was the side of the five figures as they were apparently severely injured.


In this side, there was a heroic young looking man who stood in front of the other four as he was holding a halberd. Dylan inferred that the four injured figures at the back was the Thundercloud Kings but he was not certain who was the heroic young man. \'Who is that youth holding a halberd?", he thought.


Suddenly, one of the four kings said, "Young King, you must not do this!"


"Don\'t worry, brother Falcon. I don\'t have much time with me anyways. If I were to die, I would like to die in battle while protecting the country I rule." The \'Young King\' smiled with brilliance. His injuries could not his the innate majesty he has. He lunged forward and thrust his halberd. The force contained within seemed like it can rule the entire world!!


"Hahaha, you are foolish, after all! You should have just surrendered, True King Ramiel" The man spoke while he and his partner charged to kill the king! Pitch black clouds appeared out of their hands and feet as they performed a joint attack! The pitch black clouds formed a giant cloud monster that emitted death energy and seemingly brought disaster to the sky as it desired to devour anything even light itself!


"A True King?! Pitch black clouds... Darkness Castle?!" Dylan would recognize that technique anywhere! That was the same technique that Byron used to destroy the Gardenford Restaurant and used to capture Scarlet. Hatred started to appear in his eyes when he saw these two performing the same technique as Byron.


"Immortal Slaying Lightning Thrust!" True King Ramiel shouted with overbearing dominance! Shining lightning and roaring thunders gathered and formed a lightning dragon that was at least 10 times bigger than a Grand Rising Lightning! True King Ramiel emitted the truly brilliance of a king as he heroically charged forwards.


"Young King! Noooooo!!" The four kings roared and tried to move but the injuries they received rendered them unable to even support themselves and stand properly


*BOOOOOM!!*


....


After the deafening explosion, Dylan returned. He was still dazed and could still not detach himself from the memory fragment he was just in.
