Chapter 80 Another Breakthrough in Supernatural Power!

At night, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, who had just finished handling official documents, was about to put down his brush when his eyes suddenly twitched, and he looked outside the hall.

"Gao Lishi, what is happening outside?"

"Your Majesty, just a moment ago the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, but for some reason, the moonlight suddenly vanished, and the world has become as pitch-black as ink."

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang stood up and walked outside the hall; the ink-like night seemed to have enveloped even the imperial palace.

However, on the eaves of the various palaces throughout the imperial palace, a faint radiance bloomed, neutralizing the darkness so it was not quite as dim.

The entire imperial palace was the same.

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang wore a bright yellow robe embroidered with a five-clawed Dragon.

Gao Lishi only glanced at it once before feeling as if the five-clawed Dragon had come alive; its expression and scales looked lifelike, coldly staring right at him.

Gao Lishi hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look again.

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang's gaze narrowed slightly, the dignified Aura of the human Supreme revealed without a doubt.

He surveyed his surroundings; although his gaze remained calm, judging by his pursed lips, he was clearly displeased.

The next instant, silver-white thunder tore through the dark night, illuminating the earth and connecting with the heavens and the earth.

Gao Lishi subconsciously closed his eyes slightly.

Meanwhile, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang remained expressionless, staring unblinkingly at the thunder.

Bolts of thunder descended from the sky one after another, then wantonly spread out like branches.

The heat between heaven and earth seemed to be receding, replaced by wisps of cool and refreshing breezes.

"Gao Lishi, tell me, who is truly the Revered Master of this world?"

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang's lips parted slightly, his voice filled with a hint of confusion, as if he were genuinely and earnestly asking this question.

Gao Lishi immediately knelt down, bowing his head toward the ground.

"Your Majesty's might extends across the seas. Under the vast heaven, all is the King's land; within the borders of the land, all are the King's subjects. It is Your Majesty who allows the common people to live and work in peace. The Revered Master of this world is naturally Your Majesty!"

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang did not speak again, his gaze becoming increasingly deep and gloomy, darker even than this thick night.

After a long while, a soft voice emerged.

"Order the Imperial Agents to investigate. I want to see which high-ranking practitioner has such a grand display, summoning such a heavy rain in this Chang'an City."

From a dark corner, a hoarse voice replied: "As you command."

...

At this moment, many people throughout Chang'an had noticed this strange phenomenon.

Ordinary commoners only thought that Heaven had been dry for so long and finally opened its eyes, willing to let it rain.

However, some people knew that this was not Heaven opening its eyes, but rather an expert casting a thunder Spell.

Although they did not know the purpose or intention, it currently seemed to be a prayer for rain?

It was just that this momentum was a bit too vast; drawing ten thousand bolts of thunder into Chang'an, their strength was likely not weaker than the Bitter Sea Realm.

In a post station in Chang'an specifically for foreign envoys to stay, Abe no Nakamaro was also watching this wanton heavenly thunder.

"Just as Emperor Jimmu said, the Great Tang truly has countless heroes. Such vast heavenly might can actually be unleashed by human power!"

His eyes were bright, filled with undisguised yearning and longing.

"Wine... I want wine..."

Suddenly, a faint sound came from the room.

Abe no Nakamaro turned to look, an expression of excitement appearing in his eyes.

"After torturing you for so long, you are still thinking about drinking wine? Are all the monks of the Great Tang this interesting?"

He walked into the room; under the bed, there was a young monk with ordination scars on his head, lying paralyzed there.

But at this moment, he was covered in blood, his limbs had disappeared, there were only a few teeth left in his mouth, and his left eye socket was a hollow void; his eyeball had been gouged out alive.

But even so, he was still shouting with weak strength: "I want wine, I want wine!"

Abe no Nakamaro did not know this monk's name; because he had repeatedly broken precepts, he had been expelled from his original temple.

When Abe no Nakamaro met him, the monk was already dead drunk, paralyzed in a certain wine alley in Chang'an.

Abe no Nakamaro brought him back, and not long after, the monk became the way he was now.

This monk's cultivation was not weak, having just stepped into the Xuanguang Realm; most importantly, his obsession was strong enough.

Only people or monsters with such obsession could be valued by Abe no Nakamaro.

"It still lacks a bit of heat, it still lacks a bit of heat," Abe no Nakamaro muttered.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he thought of a good idea.

Since he liked to drink, then he would cut off his tongue and sew his mouth shut; that should be about right.

Thinking of it, he did it; Abe no Nakamaro picked up a pair of scissors and slowly approached the monk, his expression frantic.

"Don't be afraid, I have come to save you..."

"Ah, I want wine... Woo! Woo woo!"

Before long, painful screams and muffled groans rang out in the room, but the sounds were all isolated within the room and did not spread out at all.

...

Jiang Chen knew nothing about the movements outside; he had only accumulated a large amount of power within his body at the moment of the communion between heaven and man.

If this power were not released, it would ultimately be a burden, so he subconsciously released it using his Divine Ability with the highest consumption: the thunder Spell.

After releasing the thunder Spell, he immersed himself in his mind, immersed in the numerous insights.

Waves of profound insights all turned into experience points, which also caused his strength to constantly rise.

This time, it seemed that because he used the thunder Spell to release that overwhelmingly strong power, among all his Divine Abilities, only Mastery of Five Thunders and Golden Light Divine Incantation had leveled up by one.

As for his other Divine Abilities, they only gained a little experience; the second time he observed these strange Inscriptions, although he still gained a large amount of experience points, it was much less compared to the first time.

It seemed that this also had a limit and could not be reused repeatedly.

[Skills: Golden Light Incantation (Level 4); Mastery of Five Thunders (Level 4)]

[Experience required for Golden Light Incantation upgrade: 10086 / 100000]

[Experience required for Mastery of Five Thunders upgrade: 16452 / 100000]

Except for the Mastery of Five Thunders Divine Ability, other Divine Ability Spells only gained a few hundred experience points; Golden Light Incantation was also able to Breakthrough only because it was originally missing that final push.

As for Mastery of Five Thunders, it gained a full ten thousand plus experience points.

"What exactly is this thing?"

As the two observations ended, the power contained in these recorded Inscriptions seemed to have been lost as well, unable to let him gain more experience.

But one had to know that the Inscriptions he had recorded were merely the tip of the iceberg on the Life Wheel, not even one percent of it!

If he could observe more and record some, it would likely allow his Divine Ability and Spell attainments to leap to become the pinnacle of the current world, able to keep pace with his Revered Master, Grand Master Sima Chengzhen!

Thinking of this possibility, even with Jiang Chen's current state of mind, he could not help but feel a bit excited.

But very quickly, he calmed down.

The reason he was able to glimpse the Life Wheel this time was because of a coincidental communion between heaven and man, similar to triggering a state of enlightenment, which was why he could successfully see the Life Wheel.

But that did not mean he would be able to enter this state again next time.

"Cultivating is truly difficult."

Jiang Chen could not help but sigh.
