BXBX NOVEL Chapter 2 - Nine-layered Thunder Blade
Bang!
A scientific research instrument suddenly exploded, and fragments scattered all over the ground.
The researcher widened his eyes and cried out, "What strong energy. Could it be that another Ultimate realm fighter has been born in Massachusetts?"
Soon, he reported this news to the person-in-charge.
In the conference room of the research institute.
A few fighters were sitting around the round table.
The person-in-charge was sitting in the middle. His steps were steady, and his breathing was long. It was obvious that he had the strength of a seventh-grade fighter.
The man stood up and pointed at an electronic display screen.
On the display screen was a photo.
"This is a photo taken by a satellite. Just three minutes ago, with Boston as the center, a large amount of cosmic energy gathered within a 100-kilometer radius. It even formed an energy storm!
"Dozens of cars were damaged, and close to 100 people were injured. Fortunately, there were no fatal injuries.
"According to the research institute’s speculation, it’s very likely that a grade-9 fighter broke through the impasse.
"I’ve already reported this to the military. They will send strong fighters to investigate..."
All in all, the only thing they could do was to deal with the aftermath.
Right after the energy storm dissipated, many warriors in Massachusetts were stunned.
They actually couldn’t feel any cosmic energy!
Even the monsters in the East Coast Wilderness hid in their nests and didn’t dare to come out to hunt for food.
...
Martial Arts Training High School No. 3.
Andrew looked at the classroom with glass shards scattered all over the ground and the noise coming from outside. He muttered in his heart, "Is the system that powerful?
"Just loading the system caused an energy storm."
He looked at the system interface.
[Immortal Cultivation System]
[Name]: Andrew Doyle
[Age]: 18 years old
[Identity]: Martial Arts Training High School No. 3 student
[Cultivation Realm]: Qi Formation First Grade (+)
[Cultivation Technique]: None (+)
[Magic Weapon]: None
[Strengthening Points]: 0 Points
[System Store]: Opening conditions have not been met
[Lucky Draw -RSB-]: 100 strengthening points for one lucky draw
[Storage Space]: 1 cubic meter
[Detected that Host has an unopened novice gift bag. Do you wish to open it?]
A crisp system notification sounded in his mind, but Andrew directly ignored it. Instead, he frowned. "Immortal cultivation?"
He had promised to practice martial arts, but why did it suddenly become immortal cultivation?
And why was this so-called "Qi Formation First Grade" different from ordinary warriors?
But soon, Andrew laughed. Without thinking, it was obvious that immortal cultivation was a level higher than martial arts.
He came back to his senses and said to himself in his mind, ’Open the novice gift bag.’
Suddenly, a few crisp voices rang in his ears.
"You have gained +500 strengthening points."
"You have obtained blade technique, Nine-layered Thunder Blade."
"You have obtained Immortal Cultivation Technique: Infinite Innate Skill."
The two secret manuals turned into memory fragments and fused into Andrew’s mind.
Infinite Innate Skill was a secret manual of immortal cultivation at the Heaven Immortal level. Cultivating it would allow one’s Qi to extend endlessly. Moreover, one could refine one’s Qi and unleash terrifying power at critical moments.
As for the other Nine-layered Thunder Blade.
It could be summed up in one word: Fast!
"This blade technique seems to be a little interesting," Andrew said softly.
The Nine-layered Thunder Blade could be cultivated to nine levels in total. Each level would give the user an additional hidden force, and each hidden force could double the user’s combat strength.
If one cultivated it to the great success stage, they could unleash ten times their combat strength in one go!
"Although I am now in the first level of the Qi Formation realm, my body was tempered by the cosmic energy storm. In terms of strength, I should not be weaker than a second-class warrior.
"If I master the Nine-layered Thunder Blade, I’m afraid that even a fifth-class warrior would not be able to withstand my full-strength strike."
Andrew did not hide the smile on his face at all.
In the eyes of the other students, though, Andrew had gone crazy.
He didn’t even know how to hide in such a big commotion. Now, he was sitting there with his legs crossed and giggling foolishly. It seemed that he was mumbling something.
"Immortal cultivation?"
"What else could he be if not crazy?"
Andrew didn’t know what the others were thinking at all. He continued to look at the system interface.
500 strengthening points...
What was this strengthening point?
It couldn’t just be a lottery system, right?
"Eh?
"There’s a ’+’ on the back of the cultivation realm and cultivation technique. Could it be..."
He tried to click on the ’+’on the back of the cultivation realm.
"Ding!"
"Your cultivation has been raised to the second level of the Qi Formation realm. Strengthening points -300."
Andrew felt the strength in his body increase. Compared to the first level of the Qi Formation realm, it was already one level higher.
His eyes lit up, and he continued to click on the ’+’ button.
"Ding!"
"Insufficient strengthening points. Unable to raise cultivation."
"How about saber techniques?"
Andrew clicked on the ’+’ button at the back of the cultivation technique.
"Ding!"
"Nine-layered Thunder Blade has been raised to the first level of major accomplishment. Strengthening points -100."
"I’m Invincible!"
Andrew laughed out loud.
High school students his age usually practiced the most basic martial arts techniques, but now, he not only had the immortal cultivation technique, but he also had the Nine-layered Thunder Blade!
At least among the martial artists of the same age, no one was his match.
