Chapter 102: The Gate to A New World

Now, all the true disciples know my name…

Shen Tian became very alert now. He could not drag his plan to make his halo greener any longer.

He smiled and said, “I’ve heard about you from Senior Sister Yunxi.”

Qin Yundi gave a helpless smile and said, “I bet Senior Sister said that I’m not doing the right thing!”

Qin Yundi was not surprised at all. Everyone had been saying that about him in the sacred ground. None of the nine Elders believed in his research on the Lightning Talisman.

Is this new Saint here to persuade me too?

Qin Yundi was disinterested in continuing the conversation.

However, Shen Tian gave him a warm smile and said, “Relax, Junior Brother. What I’m trying to say is that I’m interested in researching the Lightning Talisman too.”

Qin Yundi’s eyes lit up when he heard this. He quickly asked excitedly, “Seriously? Senior Brother, you are not lying, right?”

Shen Tian nodded. “When the talisman explodes, the generated flame and light is the true art!”

Qin Yundi was puzzled. “Art? What is art?”

Shen Tian explained, “Well, art is something you think is very beautiful.”

Qin Yundi processed what Shen Tian told him and slowly opened his eyes. They were now filled with hope and desire.

He said to himself, “I get it now! Art is all about explosions!”

Then, Qin Yundi looked at Shen Tian thankfully. He took a deep breath and asked again. “Senior Brother, are you seriously into researching the Lightning Talisman too?”

Shen Tian found it funny that Qin Yundi was so excited. He said with a smile, “Of course. We can even talk about it if you want.”

Shen Tian approached the Mirror Moon Lake and took out his Hariti Rosary Beads. The beads gave off dim light and shone into the lake immediately. Then, a ball of water flew out of the lake and floated in the air.

Qin Yundi was puzzled. He could not understand what his Senior Brother was trying to do.

“From what I’ve observed, you seem to focus a lot on the drawing of the talisman and its array formation. Indeed, these two increase the power of the Lightning Talisman, but there were other ways too. Sometimes, you only need to think out of the box to find a whole new area in your research!”

Shen Tian started to input lightning energy into the ball of lake water.

Soon, the water started bubbling. As more bubbles evaporated from the water, the size of the water decreased too.

Qin Yundi still had no idea what Shen Tian was trying to achieve.

There was so much water just now, how did it disappear so fast?

What is this Senior Brother doing?

Soon, the entire ball of water disappeared, and in its stead now was a small ball of compressed water vapor in the air.

Shen Tian was afraid that Yundi could not see the water vapor, so he asked Jiu’er to form a green shield layer around the water vapor.

He smiled mysteriously at Qin Yundi and said, “Now, it’s time to show you the moment of impossible.”

In the next instant, he shot out the gas ball toward the Mirror Moon Lake and gathered his lightning energy at his fingertip.

Qin Yundi could see clearly that it was the most basic lightning art in the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, and it did not have any attribute.

According to his observation, Shen Tian had only used a 1st Firmament Qi Refinement cultivator’s power.

So? What is he trying to do?

As Qin Yundi was pondering over that, Shen Tian released the lightning toward the ball of gas. The lightning looked extremely unstable and could disappear in the air at any time. Nonetheless, it made it to the ball of gas.

Soon, a loud explosion resounded. The explosion’s blue light engulfed the entire area, while huge waves were formed.

The light blinded Qin Yundi’s eyes, and he exclaimed, “What!? How is it possible!?”

He thought he had observed closely. The lightning Shen Tian had used just now only contained the power of a 1st Firmament Qi Refinement cultivator.

How could the impact be this great? It did not make any sense!

Qin Yundi felt that he was grasping something, but he could not understand it properly.

He stared at the lake with his eyes wide open and mumbled, “This is not possible… It’s so powerful. Even Foundation Establishment cultivators would be threatened from the impact!”

In addition, the Lightning Talismans could be mass-produced, meaning a Qi Refinement cultivator could take on a Foundation Establishment cultivator with just a small amount of Spirit Qi!

Qin Yundi was not stupid, so he could tell Shen Tian was showing him a method no one had ever thought of.

He believed the trick was in the ball of gas. If he could store that gas and mass-produce it, it would be very handy in combat. Even a weak Golden Core cultivator would be troubled by this move!

If the cost of this new method is low, all the disciples in the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground can equip with such a talisman. As such, our sacred ground’s overall power will improve drastically!

Qin Yundi asked excitedly, “Senior Brother! What is that move called?”

Shen Tian smiled and said, “You want to learn? I’ll teach you!”

Honestly speaking, Shen Tian had achieved that due to the image in Qin Yundi’s halo. Coincidentally, Qin Yundi had stumbled upon the power of electrolysis while doing his research.

Electrolysis of water was the process of using electricity to decompose water into oxygen and hydrogen gas. When oxygen and hydrogen were compressed and ignited, there would be a huge explosion.

Qin Yundi had once managed to accidentally get a huge amount of hydrogen and oxygen once after setting up a Lightning Talisman Array on the Mirror Moon Lake. Afterward, he had set a Lightning Explosion Talisman Array, so the gases had been ignited immediately.

The power of the explosion had been way beyond his expectation.

Qin Yundi had carefully been trying to recreate that miracle again for the next few months.

However, the more careful he was, the longer the preparation time he would need before the explosion happened. This caused all the gases gathered at the surface of the lake to escape in the atmosphere, rendering him unable to achieve that result again.

Nonetheless, Qin Yundi was determined to recreate the scene. He believed that as long as he tried enough times, he would understand what had happened.

What Shen Tian was going to do was to teach Qin Yundi the science behind it.

Honestly speaking, Shen Tian was excited too.

He wanted to see how far this young man could go after he had understood the concept of ‘science’.

In Shen Tian’s previous life, the concepts of heat and explosion were used in some extremely powerful tools. He wondered if cultivation methods and science could work together and create miracles in the world.

Shen Tian was very curious!
