Divine Exchanged System

C18 – The Exchange of Lightning

After relaxing in the hot spring for half an hour, Wang Shan heard Jiaxia’s warning, “Young Master, the sky is suddenly filled with dark clouds. It looks like a storm is brewing. The lightning at Cloud City Mountain is quite intimidating. We should seek shelter.”

Wang Shan nodded in agreement, “You head back to the room first, I’ll come find you all shortly.”

He sent the five girls away and gazed at the sky by himself.

The sky was heavy with dark clouds, lightning snaking through them.

He anticipated an imminent storm.

“Last time, I exchanged all the water in the bath for the Heaven Rank High Grade Water Condensing Arts. I wonder if I can exchange something this time.”

Wang Shan was known for his daring ideas.

The greater the risk, the bigger the potential reward!

He gripped Jiaxia’s iron hairpin tightly in his hand.

The clouds grew denser, the sound of thunder rolling in the distance.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning burst from the long-oppressed clouds.

With a steely expression, Wang Shan held the iron hairpin aloft.

The lightning struck directly onto his hand.

Wang Shan quickly activated the Heaven Rank Water Condensing Arts, and within seconds, a layer of ice formed on his hand.

Even more astonishing was that in those brief seconds, the Water Condensing Arts purified the ice of all impurities, and the temperature plummeted to -273 degrees Celsius.

The ten million volts of lightning that hit the iron hairpin failed to harm Wang Shan.

Because ice devoid of impurities and at temperatures below two hundred degrees Celsius does not conduct electricity!

The system responded promptly.

[Tens of millions of volts of lightning energy can be exchanged for the Earth Rank High Grade Thunder Condensing Arts. After the exchange, you will instantly reach Peak Great Perfection. Would you like to exchange?]

​”Exchange,” Wang Shan replied without a second thought.

Post-exchange, Wang Shan’s entire body tingled with numbness, as though countless bolts of lightning were coursing through him.

It was as if his cells were being reinvigorated by the lightning.

When Wang Shan exhaled, the breath itself crackled with electric energy. With that, the Earth Rank High Grade Thunder Condensing Arts had been mastered to the level of Peak Great Perfection.

Wang Shan was thoroughly pleased with his High Grade Earth Rank Thunder Condensing Arts.

Both Thunder Condensing Arts and Water Condensing Arts were considered highly challenging techniques for cultivators.

Typically, a One-star Cultivator wouldn’t select them as their foundational techniques due to their complexity.

Moreover, these techniques were exceedingly rare and prohibitively expensive.

In the marketplace, the majority of available techniques were of the Low Grade Human Rank. Just purchasing a Low Grade Human Rank Thunder Condensing Arts would set one back 200,000 gold coins—a sum beyond the reach of an average family.

Wang Shan’s High Grade Earth Rank Thunder Condensing Arts, however, were not even available for purchase in the market.

Usually, such esteemed techniques would be safeguarded in the Scripture Pavilion by prominent families, treasured as a legacy of top-tier cultivation methods.

“The Eternal Flood Dragon Bloodline truly is formidable. It’s remarkable that I can cultivate two distinct types of techniques simultaneously without any adverse reaction from my body!”

Wang Shan was in awe because each person possessed different elemental attributes.

The known attributes for cultivation were water, fire, lightning, and wind.

Cultivators were meant to select a technique that matched their own attribute. Deviating from this rule could lead to severe physical strain.

Mismanagement of this could be fatal.

Individuals like Wang Shan, capable of practicing two disparate techniques like the Water Condensing Arts and the Thunder Condensing Arts concurrently, were exceedingly rare.

“Young Master, are you alright?”

The five girls rushed out to check on Wang Shan as soon as they heard the thunder.

Seeing him unharmed, they collectively breathed a sigh of relief.

They also noticed the electricity dancing around Wang Shan’s body, causing his hair to stand on end. From a distance, he bore a striking resemblance to an ancient Thunder God.
