Chapter 552: Deep Research on the Elemental Power Cultivation Method

Chu Nan flipped his palm and a bolt of lightning flashed in the nearby dark clouds before landing in his palm. It continuously jumped in the small area.

Previously, when he was learning the elemental power cultivation method from the high priest, Chu Nan had only simply followed the pattern of learning a new cultivation method and cultivated according to the cultivation method described by the high priest. He did not think too much about it.

However, in the battle with Dakota earlier, in order to first have a chance to escape and later to defeat or even kill him, Chu Nan tried his best to perfect every action of controlling the electric charge to produce lightning to attack him.

This was because only in this way could he use the least Internal Breath to control the most electric charges and form the most powerful lightning. He could consume as much of Dakota’s Internal Breath as possible and find a chance to win.

In this process of continuous attempts, Chu Nan relied on his powerful data ability to gradually control the electric charge. Every lightning strike would allow his understanding of the elemental power to deepen.

Now that he recalled his previous attempts, Chu Nan understood a principle.

The so-called elemental power cultivation method looked cool and was very complicated to cultivate. However, to put it bluntly, it was only a martial artist using their control of spatial energy to manipulate the material in the surrounding space.

Take the electric shock he had used many times just now for example. In essence, controlling lightning was to use spatial energy to affect the electric charge and condense it together, naturally forming lightning.

Of course, the elemental power cultivation method indeed had its own uniqueness because Chu Nan had never heard of it before and had never thought that any cultivation method could affect the specific matter in the surrounding space so accurately.

Accuracy was the greatest advantage of Chu Nan, who had a powerful brain like an A.I., compared to other martial artists.

He looked at the trace of lightning in his palm and with a thought, the Internal Breath in his palm began to change the spatial energy. The shape of the lightning in his palm immediately changed. It first shrunk into a small ball of light, then unfolded, turning into a thin round cake. Then, it was stretched out and turned into a straight light belt. Then, this light belt continuously twisted like a light snake.

After playing for a while, the corners of Chu Nan’s mouth curled into a smile.

He was certain that even the ancestor of the Rand Clan who was said to be able to control lightning could not have such exquisite control over lightning as him.

Chu Nan raised his hand and the trace of lightning flew out of his palm and arrived in the dark cloud. However, it did not directly dissipate. Instead, it absorbed the lightning in the surrounding dark cloud bit by bit. Soon, it condensed into an extremely thick lightning bolt that was dozens of times larger than before.

He focused his gaze on this thick lightning and circulated his Internal Breath with all his might. He extremely accurately controlled all the spatial energy he could control and began to control this lightning in the most exquisite way.

Compared to the trace of lightning that he had controlled in his palm just now, this lightning was so thick now, so it was naturally much more difficult to control.

If he only controlled it to land and attack, it would not be difficult, but what Chu Nan wanted to do was not only this.

Under his extremely precise control of spatial energy, the electric charge in this electric light could not escape his control. The thick electric light continuously rubbed against each other, causing the electric light to remain bright. Then, it continuously changed its shape like the electric light in Chu Nan’s palm. One moment, it turned into a ball, and the next moment, it turned into a large cake…

Crackle!

After trying for a while and confirming that his control of the lightning was fine, Chu Nan casually swung his hand and the thick lightning finally landed. It struck the spot where Dakota was lying and created a deep pit.

Chu Nan looked at the pit below and started to think of another question.

The elemental power cultivation method series sounded like the same series of cultivation methods because they all used spatial energy to affect the specific elemental power, but in fact, there was a huge difference.

For example, although the electric charge in the lightning was also considered a specific thing, the electric charge was a charged particle. It was already considered an extremely small thing in the category of subatomic particles and could be affected by spatial energy. Although it could be explained scientifically, it was simply filled with mystery.

From this point, this special cultivation method of the Rand Clan was indeed quite magical. No wonder they treated controlling lightning as a high-level cultivation method for the elemental power series.

Correspondingly, controlling the ordinary four elements of wind, water, fire, and earth were to use spatial energy to affect more specific elements. Basically, it was only in the molecular category. Relatively speaking, the difficulty was naturally much simpler than controlling the electric charge, so it could only be considered an initial-stage cultivation method.

With the civilization standard of the Rand Clan, it was clearly impossible for them to do this while knowing the principle. They only cultivated according to the description of the cultivation method and obtained the ability to control the elemental power.

Therefore, this cultivation method was sufficiently magical, but because they only knew the reason but did not know the reason, it was also very difficult for them to successfully cultivate. Moreover, the power they could unleash was actually ordinary.

On the other hand, Chu Nan was different. Because he had a powerful data ability and his perception and control of spatial energy were unparalleled, he could essentially understand this cultivation method and make extremely precise and corresponding control. The power he could unleash was naturally not something that ordinary Rand Clansmen who cultivated this cultivation method could compare to.

Chu Nan thought for a moment before landing on the ground.

Without any action, the soil beside his feet squirmed. Soon, a small, square-shaped pillar of soil that was very smooth on the outside rose. Moreover, the water mixed in the soil because of the heavy rain automatically emitted and condensed into a water ball that floated beside the soil pillar.

A water ball and an earth pillar. In comparison, the situation looked extremely strange.

Chu Nan stretched out his hand and pointed at the soil pillar. He felt that it had become extremely solid because the water had been completely stripped away by him and the molecules in the various soil had been forcefully compressed by him. He frowned slightly.

In fact, there was no so-called earth element. There were all kinds of substances mixed in the soil, and the molecular structure was completely different. When this elemental power cultivation method was used, it could really control the various substances in the soil to face it. It was really magical.

In comparison, controlling the water element power was much simpler because he only needed to control the completely identical water molecules.

From this point of view, putting the water elemental power cultivation method and the earth elemental power cultivation method together was really a little unfair.

However, from this perspective, it was the same for the wind elemental power cultivation method.

The so-called wind was caused by the flow of air. The air contained various gas elements and was also extremely complicated.

The power of the fire element was even more ridiculous.

What was fire?

It was actually only a physical phenomenon and did not have matter in itself. On the contrary, it needed the support of matter to be produced.

However, the elemental power cultivation method could produce flames out of thin air. What was the principle?

Chu Nan flipped his palm and a ball of flames appeared out of thin air and jumped lightly.

If it was before, Chu Nan would not have thought so much.

However, after some thought, when Chu Nan produced the flames in his palm, he deliberately paid attention to the process of producing this cultivation method.

He noticed a very strange phenomenon.

When using the earth, wind, and water elemental power cultivation methods, they used spatial energy to affect the specific material elemental molecules and even subatomic particles in the surrounding space. However, when using the fire elemental power cultivation method, they directly transformed the controlled spatial energy into flames, revealing the specifics.

In fact, in terms of the effect of unleashing the power, such a transformation was meaningless. Instead, it would make the elemental power that was originally stronger and easier for a martial artist to control even more troublesome and comparatively weak.

However, this transformation process reminded Chu Nan of another cultivation method, the Song of the Goddess Magg.

The Goddess’ Song cultivation method also directly transformed spatial energy into life force, and the elemental power cultivation method transformed spatial energy into flames.

Although these two cultivation methods looked far apart, they were essentially similar.

Moreover, since spatial energy could be transformed into specific flames and even more mysterious life force, could it be transformed into other things?

Chu Nan fell into deep thought…
