Chapter 115: Improved Dharmia Artifact, Lotus Shooting Gun
Previously, Shen Tian had been unable to use the Five Elemental Yin-Yang Mixed Divine Lightning on its own. He would have to activate the Five Heavenly Lightning Cultivation Technique before he could make use of the mixed lightning powers.
Yet when Shen Tian managed to form his Dharmic foundation, his normal Spirit Qi powers were transformed to Dharmic powers. There was a marked difference between these two states. Now, Shen Tian could feel that the Five Elemental Yin-Yang Mixed Divine Lightning powers stored within his glabella had come to recognize him and were willing to be harnessed by him.
Golden lights radiated from his glabella area as Shen Tian closed his eyes slowly.
After making the hand gestures for the Five Heavenly Lightning Cultivation Technique, he let out a cry, “Attack!”
Golden lightning shot out of his glabella immediately!
It was as if he had a ‘Heaven’s eye’ which could emit gold lights at his will.
At the same time, layers of gold-colored lightning formed on top of Shen Tian’s skin. It looked glamorous and majestic—such was the strength and superiority of the Five Elemental Yin-Yang Mixed Divine Lightning.
Shen Tian inhaled deeply, and a purplish-gold hammer appeared in his hands. Gold lightning infused with the hammer from his hands, and it glimmered brightly.
Shen Tian could feel the Purple Golden Hammer changing in his hands, now that he had Dharmic powers and was able to wield the Mixed Divine Lightning powers.
It was as if the Purple Golden Hammer had awakened from a deep slumber after years of being used as an ordinary enchanted armament. Now, it was back to its days of glory as a proper Dharmic artifact, and emotions seemed to course through its entire body.
The Purple Golden Hammer absorbed the Mixed Divine Lightning Origins into its body, enlarged in size, and a sheen of purplish-gold glow covered its surface.
Soon, the original Purple Golden Hammer, which was only about one-third of a meter, had increased to about the height of a grown-up, and it looked ominously overbearing.
That’s interesting, so is this your real form?
Shen Tian made another deep inhalation as he grabbed onto the Purple Golden Hammer’s handle tightly and raised it.
Golden lightning sparkled from both the Purple Golden Hammer and Shen Tian’s body surface. At that moment, he looked like the almighty God of Thunder!
Suddenly, Shen Tian leaped down from the Enlightenment Stone and banged the gigantic hammer onto the ground!
Boom!
There was a loud crash, and the next moment, a bright sheen of light was emitted from the ground. It spread out like ripples on a water surface.
Remember, Shen Tian had activated the Saint Mountain’s protective array. It would protect all that was enclosed in the space, and not even a Golden Core expert would be able to leave any traces of destruction after a fight—provided that the protective array was still activated.
Yet a blow from Shen Tian’s hammer was able to make a dent the size of a water basin into the Saint Mountain’s ground!
What did this mean?
That Shen Tian’s blow had been stronger than an attack from the majority of the Golden Core Perfected Ones!
This was unimaginable for a cultivator who had just reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
Imagine the uproar this would cause, should this be made known to the other Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Nonetheless, it was expected that Shen Tian would have exerted all of the powers he had harnessed after this hit.
Shen Tian bent over and sat down slowly with the shrinking Purple Golden Hammer.
Aish, this is still not the way to go. I feel tired from exerting all this energy.
It seems like I am still unable to fully wield the Mixed Divine Lightning at my will in a battle. I can only resort to using this as a last means!
Shen Tian contemplated as he rested on the Enlightenment Stone. No matter what, it was great to have another powerful last means to depend on.
Just imagine—should an opponent be able to dodge both the long-distance IX Lightning Fist skill and the attack from the Yin Yang Demon-Penetrating Gun, then get near Shen Tian with anticipated victory...
Only to realize that Shen Tian was not an archer[1], but a half-melee warrior[2] instead.
And then I will declare to him smilingly, “Actually, I am most well-versed in melee battles!” Let’s see what that opponent’s face will be like!
Won’t that be such a pleasing scene to witness?
Shen Tian kept the Purple Golden Hammer and took out more Spirit Stones from the Archeon Sea Ring to recover from his exertion.
At that moment, the Saint’s Token gave off an alert. Someone had applied to come into the Saint Mountain.
Shen Tian injected some powers into the Saint’s Token, and immediately something like a holographic image appeared in front of his eyes.
A pretty golden-haired teenage boy was standing at the mountain, squinting his eyes in the bright sunlight. He looked very likeable.
Correct, it was Qin Yundi, the fellow who was all for scientific research in the cultivation world.
However, something about Qin Yundi seemed rather different.
Shen Tian was not sure if this was a trick on his eyes due to the bright sunlight, but he decided to brush it aside.
Yeap, most probably I was too hard-working, I am hallucinating!
He injected some powers into the Saint’s Token and opened a slit for Qin Yundi to enter.
Qin Yundi flew in with his sword and appeared before Shen Tian the next moment.
“Senior Brother Shen, I have already created the lightning-generating machine and improved the Demon-Penetrating Gun. Take a look!”
With that, the ring on Qin Yundi’s finger gleamed. A golden tripod cauldron and a short gun appeared in front of Shen Tian the next moment.
The tripod cauldron had the Tai Chi and Yin-Yang symbols carved upon it. There were also several hundreds of indentations upon its surface.
Qin Yundi commented, “Senior Brother, I thought about it after we parted. Rather than letting our disciples provide us with the lightning powers, why not just carve a Lightning Array Formation onto the tripod cauldron to convert whatever Spirit Qi it could absorb to the required energies?
“My mother acted on my suggestion, and hence we created this Yin-Yang Tripod Cauldron.
“Take a look at it, Senior Brother. Does it fit your requirements?”
Whoa!
Upon hearing Qin Yundi’s introduction, Shen Tian couldn’t help but feel impressed by him.
He does indeed live up to the name of being the ‘Lavoisier of the cultivation world’! In just a few days’ time, he even knew how to make enhancements to my invention!
Shen Tian nodded in satisfaction and commented, “Junior Brother, do show me how it’s operated!”
Qin Yundi smiled, came to before the tripod cauldron, and placed various Spirit Stones within the indentations. Then, he inserted several Qi Gathering Talismans sheets into the cover of the tripod cauldron and closed it.
Following that, Qin Yundi injected Dharmic powers into the Tai Chi Yin-Yang Tripod Cauldron to activate the array formation within it.
Immediately, the whole tripod cauldron started quivering, and some lightning sparkled from within it.
A Lightning Talisman, which emitted holy lights, shot out of the tripod cauldron after a few moments.
Shen Tian caught hold of the Lightning Talisman and directed it at a random spot on the ground.
Boom!
Although there wasn’t much damage to be seen on the ground’s surface, one could feel the waves of energy that surged up to them from the explosion.
From the strength of the energy waves, Shen Tian roughly estimated that this talisman’s prowess was almost on par with the effects of the previous talismans.
This showed that Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus was indeed skillful at creating Dharmic artifacts—she could even make an automatic Lightning Talisman generator!
Shen Tian grinned and said, “Not bad at all! With this Dharma artifact, it will be great for both the creation of the lightning powers needed and also maintain the secrecy of our formula.”
Qin Yundi squinted his eyes in satisfaction and commented, “Yeap, that’s why I especially took one of these from the Golden Lotus Mountain to give it to you.
“In the future, Senior Brother will be able to produce the Yin-Yang Lightning Explosion Talisman in bulk by yourself!
“How do you feel about this?” ended off Qin Yundi, looking back at Shen Tian excitedly.
As long as Senior Brother Saint likes the gifts I send, most probably he will continue giving me more guidance on how to advance on the Yin-Yang Water Inverse Dao!
This was why Qin Yundi felt it was worthwhile to sneak out the Dharma artifact and give it to Shen Tian. After all, what he cared most for was doing research—he was not at all interested about the amount of Spirit Stones he was being rewarded for.
Shen Tian kept the Tai Chi Yin-Yang Tripod Cauldron away in his Archeon Sea Ring and replied, “I am very grateful for your gift, Junior Brother.”
Following which, his sight fell upon the short gun on the ground. “So, this is the improved version of the Demon-Penetrating Gun?”
Qin Yundi took up the gun and handed it to Shen Tian. “Senior Brother, this is what my mother created from the Ten-Thousandth Iron Essence.
“Compared to the normal Demon-Penetrating Gun, this gun’s more powerful, and it can even handle consecutive shots!
“My mother thus gave it a unique name—the Lotus Shooting Gun!”
