Chapter 890: Mastering the Thunder Principle (Requesting Monthly Votes)

The 12 million cultivation points he earned this time were all spent.

He additionally spent another 8 million cultivation points.

Lin Qi looked at his remaining balance—it was now only about 50 million cultivation points left.

It still seemed like a lot, but compared to the previous 130 million cultivation points,

it had dropped significantly!

The remaining cultivation points must also cover new secret manuals, techniques, upgrades to his spaceship, weapons, and battle armor.

He wasn't sure if it would be enough in the end.

Lin Qi fretted for an instant, then calmed down and returned to his cultivation state.

Next, it would be just like before when he contemplated the Gold Principle.

He would deepen his comprehension of the Thunder Principle.

…

In the core zone of the Space-Time Sanctuary's virtual world: Tongxu Academy.

It was an extremely luxurious estate, planted with countless heavenly treasures infused with void energy.

Across the vast courtyard, two figures walked side by side.

One wore a black-and-gold long robe, towering over three meters tall, with golden hair.

His skin was bronze-toned, every muscle forged like an S-class alloy, radiating a sharp aura.

His features were handsome, with a golden mark on his forehead.

He touched a ten-meter-tall giant tree and said:

"I sense a dense aura of Space Principle in the air."

"This Void Tree has been fully cultivated."

"If it bears Void Fruit, that would be an excellent treasure—an extremely precious heavenly essence."

"It can enhance one's affinity with the Space Principle and aid in its comprehension."

"Though it won't awaken Space abilities, it's still exceedingly rare."

"If it bears Void Fruit, remember to sell it to me."

The owner of the Void Tree was a man in a silver robe, tall and elegant, with a handsome face.

A silver mark adorned his forehead.

His aura blended perfectly with the surrounding environment.

His entire being was enveloped by the Space Principle.

Yi Ang floated up and landed on the Void Tree's branch, shaking his head:

"This Void Tree's seed was hard-won—I poured the corpses of many Sky God Clan members into it to keep it alive."

"Even if it bears Void Fruit, I'll use it myself."

"I don't even have enough for myself—how could I sell it to you?"

"Lei Wen, if you want to comprehend the Space Principle, better spend more time observing the Chaos Artifact—the Void Cube."

The golden-haired Lei Wen shook his head:

"In our Primordial Sanctuary, one observation costs 10 million cultivation points."

"I still can't bring myself to spend it."

"Too many observations drain cultivation points too quickly."

"The Space Principle is just too hard to comprehend."

"You have to increase the number of observations."

"If I had Void Fruit, it would greatly help my comprehension of the Space Principle."

"I'm not like you, Yi Ang—you have the Void Body and were granted core membership the moment you entered the Primordial Sanctuary."

"Only you have the power to easily hunt down Sky God Clan members and use their blood to nourish the Void Tree."

Dressed in silver robes, Yi Ang sat on the Void Tree's branch and shook his head:

"Lei Wen, you dare complain?"

"You awakened the Golden Emperor Body, possessing three metal abilities and one Space ability."

"You're also a Psychic Mind Master—your talent is exceedingly rare even in the Primordial Sanctuary."

"You have plenty of heavenly treasures yourself—I'm even envious."

"You've hunted down several Sky God Clan members."

"Some of them were even sold to me."

Lei Wen chuckled, then changed the subject:

"I have something to tell you."

"Recently, a prodigy named Lin Qi has appeared in our Primordial Sanctuary."

"In less than a thousand years, he broke through to seventh-rank technique."

"And he cleared the ninth and tenth levels of the Origin Tower in one go."

"That's equivalent to the difficulty of the ninth and tenth gates of your Space-Time Sanctuary's Void Sea."

"That's the same achievement you once had."

"And reportedly, he's awakened three abilities: Gold, Thunder, and Space—he's extraordinarily gifted."

"Doesn't that make you feel any pressure?"

Yi Ang replied calmly: "He's indeed extraordinarily gifted, but I feel no pressure."

"The more prodigies our race has, the better."

"Still, cultivating three Principles simultaneously will make comprehending the Space Principle extremely difficult."

"But his combat power shouldn't be weak."

"I'm very pleased."

Lei Wen shook his head: "That's probably not your true thought, is it?"

"Don't you think I know you well?"

Hearing this, Yi Ang's expression changed, revealing a confident smile:

"My true thought is that I have absolute confidence in my own talent."

"I cultivate only the Space Principle."

"The Cosmic Will imposes no suppression on me."

"My body grants me innate Space affinity—on this path, my progress will only accelerate."

"I've already cleared the twelfth gate of the Void Sea."

"Among all current Cosmic Four Realms beings of our race, I am the strongest."

Lei Wen laughed: "If other top-tier prodigies from the Supreme Forces heard you say that, they'd never accept it."

"After all, other factions have their own top prodigies too."

Yi Ang's body began to float midair as he smiled confidently:

"Once we enter the Abyss Sanctuary, they'll know for themselves."

…

Six months later, the Yanyuan Academy.

Inside the No. 8 metal door, atop the tall staircase.

"Zizizi!!"

The air was filled with dominant thunder energy.

On the platform, thirty people sat on different steps, observing the massive five-colored thunder orb floating in the air.

This was the Chaos Artifact—the Annihilation Thunder Pattern Pearl!

"Awaken…"

The guardian Peiji's voice echoed in everyone's ears.

All of them stirred awake.

They began to leave one by one.

On the tenth step, Lin Qi in a white robe also stood up.

His mind still replayed the sight of the five-colored thunder runes swirling as he observed the Thunder Principle.

His comprehension of the Thunder Principle deepened further.

Then he left the metal door.

Peiji watched Lin Qi's back and sighed inwardly:

"What a prodigy!"

"In less than a thousand years, he cultivates two Principles simultaneously."

"And has already broken through to seventh-rank technique."

"His talent is astonishing."

"I truly look forward to his future."

"But he must first overcome the Thunder Principle."

"The Cosmic Principle's suppression is no joke."

"It will take immense time to comprehend."

……

Lin Qi returned to Tianhai Residence.

Sitting on the training ground, he directly consumed several vials of 99% purity Soul Marrow.

He immediately began to cultivate.

"Zizii!!"

Purple thunder energy erupted from his body, and within the lightning, its color began to change.

It transformed into five colors: blue, crimson, gold, black, silver.

The five-colored thunder carried entirely different auras.

In an instant, Lin Qi's hand produced a battle blade.

"Zizii!!"

Wild thunder energy swirled around his body as Lin Qi unleashed an exquisite sword technique.

Just as he had comprehended the Golden Principle, Lin Qi had also cultivated numerous thunder-affinity spear technique scriptures.

He had also studied scriptures for blade, sword, staff, axe, and hammer techniques.

He had already become highly proficient in wielding these weapons.

This time, he merely needed to replace the principles he applied with the Thunder Principle.

"Boom!!"

Above Tianhai Residence, dark clouds gathered, rumbling thunder rolled like a giant serpent and crashed onto the training ground.

"Crackling!"

A dominant thunder domain enveloped the entire training ground.

"Boom boom!!"

Lin Qi swung his blade like a furious thunder beast, devouring all, annihilating everything with thunder energy.

One slash followed another, releasing his power.

He carefully sensed the flow of thunder energy within his body.

Each cell became a living entity, surging with vigorous life force.

Through frantic movement, he stirred the power of lightning.
