249: From mastering the realm to the realm of selflessness

With this thought, Feng Ming no longer dwelled on it, but focused on comprehending the Way of Thunder.

If he could elevate the Way of Thunder from the Mastery Realm to the Selflessness Realm before the Trial.

That would undoubtedly be a huge boost to Feng Ming's strength!

Of course, while he needed to comprehend the Way of Thunder, he also needed to inquire about divine lightning!

After all, Wu Qingyue, this free Upper Realm expert, wasn't always available.

Thinking this, Feng Ming asked, "Do you know where I can find divine lightning in the Lower Realm?"

Wu Qingyue was stunned, then smiled, "There's basically no divine lightning in the Lower Realm. King Haoyue did find one a few years ago, but besides that, there's no other information."

"So, trying to find divine lightning in the Lower Realm is basically hopeless. There is some in the Upper Realm, but with your current strength, there's no hope either. I think you might as well start with Lightning Tribulations."

Feng Ming nodded. It seemed divine lightning was truly rare.

His idea of fusing divine lightning with his Thunder Devouring Art could only rely on Lightning Tribulations for now!

Fortunately, Cultivators would experience Lightning Tribulations when crossing major Realms, so he could try that.

While he was thinking, Feng Ming's body underwent some changes.

Feng Ming looked inward and found that his Way of Thunder had advanced from the Mastery Realm to the Selflessness Realm.

Feng Ming was overjoyed and immediately prepared to use Wind Thunder Palm to test its effects.

Seemingly sensing his intention, Wu Qingyue quickly stopped him, "Are you crazy? Don't make a move in the Starry Sky."

Feng Ming was puzzled, "Why?"

Wu Qingyue explained irritably, "The Starry Sky is like a pool of water. You can comprehend the Dao in the pool! But if you make a move in the pool, what do you think will happen?"

Feng Ming was startled and couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.

"It will cause huge fluctuations and attract attention!"

"Exactly!"

Wu Qingyue continued, "Ordinary people cannot enter the Starry Sky for Enlightenment, but they pay extra attention to it. Once you make a move, it will definitely arouse suspicion, which is not good for either of us."

Hearing this, Feng Ming could only suppress his impulse. Anyway, the Way of Thunder had already broken through, so testing it or not didn't matter much!

Afterward, Feng Ming glanced at the Cultivation time.

He didn't know until he looked, but there were less than ten seconds left.

Feng Ming immediately said.

"My time is almost up. Thank you anyway. If I qualify for the Immortal Worship Assembly, I will definitely choose you as promised."

"Hmm, you have some conscience, but don't forget to prepare delicious food for me."

Feng Ming smiled. This girl was truly a complete foodie. "Don't worry, I guarantee you'll be satisfied. I'm leaving. See you next time."

As his voice fell, Feng Ming's presence vanished from the Starry Sky.

When he regained consciousness, Feng Ming was back in his body and felt that due to the Breakthrough in the Way of Thunder, his body had reached an unprecedented level of strength.

Feng Ming was very satisfied with this. People only dislike being too weak; how could they dislike being too strong?

Early the next morning, Feng Ming brought Feng Da to the restaurant.

In a corner of the restaurant, he found Feng Mian and Guan Rong, among others, drinking and gathering information.

"Second Brother, you've finally decided to show your face. I thought you truly didn't care about the Trial news."

Facing Feng Mian's teasing, Feng Ming said helplessly, "There were too many things. I just finished handling them. Tell me, what have you found out?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Mian immediately took out a piece of paper from his Huai(huái) as if presenting a treasure, "You know, I really did gather a lot of information these past two days."

Feng Ming took a look. It was a list, with names like Jiang Ling, the daughter of the Jiang Family Head, Young Master Zhao of the Zhao Family, and Young Master Chen of the Chen Family, detailing their identities and strengths.

"What? Are these the most formidable opponents you've found?"

Feng Mian nodded, "These five are the most promising candidates to enter the top ten this time. Some of them are not only of noble status and powerful, but also have many bodyguards following them."

"For example, this Young Master Chen is said to have planned for three years, bringing all sorts of Cultivation supplies, precisely to enter the Trial grounds and make a Breakthrough to Nascent Soul."

Feng Ming chuckled, "Can't he make a Breakthrough outside? Why must he go to the Trial grounds?"

Feng Mian shook his head, "You're really ignorant, aren't you? His family has many officials, and they don't lack one more junior entering officialdom. Relatively speaking, they value his strength more. As long as his strength increases, someone will naturally write a letter of recommendation for him."

Feng Ming was stunned upon hearing this. Good heavens, he was taking the 'internal recommendation' route!

"Since he's taking the internal recommendation route, and his main goal is to improve his strength, then why is he still said to be the most likely to enter the top ten?"

Feng Ming asked curiously.

"This is mainly because his own strength is quite good, plus he has a hundred followers, and many people from the Earth Ranking helping him find medicinal ingredients. As long as he succeeds, the top ten will surely be within his grasp."

Feng Ming suddenly understood.

He wasn't very concerned about these people. While they were strong, his own strength wasn't weak either.

Feng Ming was confident that among all the participants in the Trial, no one else possessed several Daos, all reaching the Fusion Realm, some even entering the Mastery and Selflessness Realms.

Furthermore, no one else had a Chaos Body and such a powerful Physique.

Comparatively, he was more interested in whether he could get any news about Wangyue Spring.

Feng Ming listened briefly and then continued to read.

"What is the most crucial part of the beginning?"

Feng Mian's eyes immediately widened, and he became excited, "This is the most important intelligence! It's the only chance to 'speculate' in the entire Trial, so you must seize it."

Feng Ming was a bit confused. Guan Rong couldn't help but laugh and said, "What he's talking about is at the beginning, each participant on the Heaven Ranking will be issued a heaven ranking tickets. However, the method of issuance is a bit careless, because they don't appear directly in one's hand, but rather descend from the sky and fly towards the corresponding person."

"During this process, if many people gather in one area! Then it will appear that heaven ranking ticketss are flying all over the sky in that area. At this time, if someone makes a move to intercept the heaven ranking ticketss before they reach their corresponding person, it counts as successfully snatching a heaven ranking tickets!"

Feng Ming smiled upon hearing this.

"It can be done like that?"

But thinking about it, the Trial had already begun, so it was reasonable to be able to contend for other people's heaven ranking ticketss from the very beginning!

I should try it if I get the chance, Feng Ming muttered to himself.

He continued to read, found no other records, and then asked.

"I want to ask you about a place. Have you heard of Wangyue Spring?"

The others were stunned, and Feng Mian's expression changed drastically, "Second Brother, Wangyue Spring is not a good place at all! It's one of the Three Great Perilous Lands; those who enter rarely come out alive."

Hearing this, Feng Ming became even more curious, "Three Great Perilous Lands? Tell me more?"
