Chapter 1004: Chapter 364: Chef Lao: Young Master Looks After Me
Wood Element Transforming Thunder!
But then, the threads of electricity in Ning Zhuo’s hand dissipated.
Failed.
Ning Zhuo sighed, "My foundation is still too weak. Using Wood Element Magic to condense Thunder Skill, the gap is too wide."
He could feel that his Five Elements Realm was sufficient. But in terms of Thunder Skill experience and realm, he was lacking.
To Ning Zhuo, Thunder Skill was quite unfamiliar. The closest he had come was using various one-time Thunder Balls.
Ning Zhuo looked up at the sky, "The cultivation techniques are vast and profound. How many years have I been around, how many years have I been cultivating? I haven’t even traveled the world for a year."
"I still have so much to learn."
Ning Zhuo roughly planned and found that if he wanted to master Wood Element Thunder, he still needed to delve into the cultivation principles of the lightning path, at least studying numerous related Thunder Skills.
After all, his Three Elixir Fields were already full, and there was no way to dual cultivate other techniques.
To master a certain Thunder Skill, the simplest way is to choose a cultivation technique and train in it. But initially, in White Paper Immortal City, Ning Zhuo wanted some Myriad Phenomena Magical Power, so Sun Lingtong had to dual cultivate the "Myriad Phenomena Scripture." This path was already blocked for Ning Zhuo.
If Ning Zhuo wanted to emulate Lin Jinglong, who could derive thunder from the Wood Element, he’d have to comprehend many things, possessing a much higher realm in lightning and Wood Element than Lin Jinglong to initiate such creation.
Lin Jinglong needn’t reach such high standards—he primarily cultivates the Lin Family’s sect-point technique "Ten Thousand Woods Spring Thunder," and as long as he progresses step by step, he’s fine. Of course, if he wants to climb higher peaks, he needs to constantly realize the principles of Wood Element and thunder in cultivation.
From this point, one can understand the significance of cultivation techniques.
Cultivation techniques are methods that follow certain worldly principles, enabling cultivators to execute and study the path.
Realm is the level of understanding of the path.
Ning Zhuo is extremely profound in the Five Elements Realm, which translates to an intense comprehension capability of Five Elements Skills, spells, etc.
Because the Five Elements principles contained in these techniques and spells, Ning Zhuo already understood. Hence, to him, reviewing these techniques and spells was mere revision.
"Thunder Skill is indeed powerful."
"Especially against vengeful souls, it is quite effective."
Although Lin Jinglong wasn’t a match for Ning Zhuo, the Spring Thunder he displayed made Ning Zhuo envious.
"Unfortunately, learning Thunder Skill can only be temporarily set aside."
"The urgent matter is not this; I have more important things to do."
With these thoughts, Ning Zhuo’s Wood Element Mana surged again, and a thread of electricity was condensed.
This time, the electricity was at least twice as large as before, brighter, and even emitted a trace of vitality.
If Lin Jinglong saw this, he would certainly be astonished!
Ning Zhuo, with just one confrontation, was able to deduce some Spring Thunder essence from Wood Element Mana. Such innate talent, brilliance, would definitely be protective within the Lin Family, seen as a rare hope for prospering the family in a millennium!
"Young Master, it’s time for supper." The voice of the old chef came from outside the door.
Ning Zhuo was taken aback. It turned out two hours had passed.
"Cultivation does not heed the years," he sincerely lamented.
He was immersed in the deductions of Wood Element Thunder, completely forgetting the time. When reminded, a long time had already passed.
Since the old chef sought refuge with Ning Zhuo, he had been creating Spirit Food to assist Ning Zhuo’s cultivation.
Ning Zhuo sat first, then the chef, Qing Chi, and Gongsun Yan sat in order.
Gongsun Yan looked at the table full of delicacies, then at the old chef, his heart slightly shaken, "So this old man is actually a Spirit Chef."
Before Ning Zhuo was a bowl of deep black fish jelly, its color akin to ghostly jade.
Ning Zhuo activated a cultivation technique first, then took a jade spoon, scooping a piece into his mouth.
The fish jelly melted instantly, turning into a cold wave crashing down his throat, following the intestines directly to the stomach, then like a cold wave outbreak, rapidly spreading throughout Ning Zhuo’s body.
Ning Zhuo’s skin, fascia, and blood instantly solidified. On the entire body surface, a layer of translucent ghostly jade ice crystal covered, visible to the naked eye.
The ghostly jade ice crystal quickly dissolved, turning to nothing.
But in this process, Ning Zhuo’s entire body was tempered. His physical foundation advanced a small step.
Ning Zhuo’s physical foundation was already quite strong, but the old chef’s Spirit Food was still effective.
The cultivation efficiency could not match a Fetal Breathing Spirit Boat, but it was not bad. Fish jelly not only boosted the physical foundation but could also increase resistance to yin-chill.
This was Ning Zhuo’s active request.
Ever since his soul was elevated to a million Human Souls, it reached the body’s carrying limit, causing the soul to pressurize the flesh, with many dark green spots appearing on his body.
The ghost crystal fish jelly from the old chef, Ning Zhuo had been eating for some time. Many of the dark spots turned olive green, and most faded away.
Everyone had a main dish in front of them.
Before Qing Chi lay a roasted squab. The squab was crimson all over, its skin as lustrous as glazed, emitting scorching heat.
Qing Chi tore off a pigeon leg and put it in the mouth.
Crunch.
With a crisp sound, as Qing Chi bit down, the squab’s leg skin cracked. Inside was tender and juicy, containing surging fire essence’s spiritual meat, which was continuously sliced and ground between Qing Chi’s jaws.
A pure, fierce fiery torrent rushed into Qing Chi’s limbs and bones, then surged into Qing Chi’s dantian with restless excitement.
Qing Chi’s Mana seemed to ignite, blazing up, rapidly growing in the blazing torrent.
