Chapter 1216: Chapter 1216 Fierce Wind and Thunder Wind
“Cultivation Thunder thod?” An Yuhong’s expression grew puzzled again—was this even an option?
Kong Ziyi was also stunned upon hearing this. “I have heard that Thunder Techniques can be used as supplentary Cultivation Techniques, but tempering gold with Thunder Techniques… Are you sure this won’t cause any problems? I’m not doubting you, it’s just that if such a thod existed, there’s no way the Golden Core Masters of our sect wouldn’t know about it.”
Huang Fu Wuxia, after freezing for a mont, took out that ancient text again and started flipping through it with loud rustling noises.
Feng Jun let out a bitter chuckle, spreading his hands helplessly. “Not all gold attributes can be refined with Thunder Techniques, but I can assure you that Fellow Daoist An’s gold attribute can indeed be tempered through Thunder Techniques.”
An Yuhong and Kong Ziyi exchanged glances, each seeing the doubt in the other’s eyes—can this really be true?
“Found it!” Huang Fu Wuxia exclaid with joy, “A variant of the Hidden Fierce Wind Gold constitution… the Hidden Feng Lei Jin Body, a gold attribute constitution but mainly cultivated through wind and thunder!”
Kong Ziyi looked at her in astonishnt. “What kind of book is that? It actually contains such a claim?”
“Just so random book,” Huang Fu Wuxia quickly stashed the text away and looked at her warily. “Sister Zi Yi, this is my livelihood.”
Then, turning to Feng Jun, she asked smugly, “My explanation… isn’t wrong, is it?”
“It’s correct,” Feng Jun gave her a thumbs-up. “Gold attribute, primarily cultivated through wind and thunder—spot on.”
An Yuhong, seeming to awaken from a dream, asked, “This… can really be interpreted this way?”
“I seem to have heard of such a theory as well,” Kong Ziyi nodded slowly. “The Wind and Thunder Body.”
“It’s the Hidden Feng Lei Jin Body,” Huang Fu Wuxia corrected her. “The Wind and Thunder Body cos in many forms.”
In truth, Kong Ziyi also had considerable knowledge of constitutions. After so thought, she asked, “In that case, since it’s a Hidden Feng Lei Jin constitution… this should count as an Innate Constitution, right?”
Hidden ans a latent attribute; it doesn’t an it doesn’t exist. She believed her senior sister’s gold attribute could be activated by wind and thunder, so it shouldn’t be classified as an Acquired Constitution.
“It shouldn’t count,” Huang Fu Wuxia disagreed without hesitation. “Acquired Constitutions are cultivated postnatal, but not all non-Acquired Constitutions are Innate Constitutions.”
As she spoke, she glanced at An Yuhong. “Fellow Daoist An, I’m rely discussing the matter and an no offense.”
“No need to be so polite,” An Yuhong waved her hand with a smile. Hearing the group’s discussion put her in a good mood, so she didn’t mind the minor details. “Debating the Dao is only to seek truth; you’re not targeting .”
Still fixated on her own cultivation, she cupped her hands toward Feng Jun and spoke earnestly, “I would like to ask Fellow Daoist Feng, which Thunder Technique would you suggest I cultivate?”
Feng Jun lit a cigarette, took two puffs, and spoke thoughtfully, “I’m not too sure about other Thunder Techniques, but as for the two Thunder Techniques currently available in Tiantong, both could yield decent results for you. Among them, the Yang Thunder Scripture would be better.”
An Yuhong turned to glance at Huang Fu Wuxia and cupped her hands. “Dare I ask, Fellow Daoist Huang Fu, what is the na of the other Thunder Technique?”
True to her nature as a born rchant, Huang Fu Wuxia answered smoothly, “The Qingmu Divine Sky Technique. It shares so origins with your Taiqing’s Five Elents Thunder Scripture and could serve as a solid foundational Cultivation Technique.”
An Yuhong sank into contemplation. She had heard of both Thunder Techniques. The Yang Thunder Scripture was a pure Thunder Cultivation Technique—violent in nature, solely focused on destruction, and not even considered a Great Dao Cultivation Technique within Thunder cultivation circles.
On the other hand, the Qingmu Divine Sky Technique originated from the Five Elents Thunder Scripture and could be regarded as a Great Dao Cultivation Technique. It could even transition into the Qingmu Technique for further cultivation.
Between the two Thunder Techniques, those with the ans would generally choose the latter—the Yang Thunder Scripture was practically impossible to cultivate to the Golden Core Stage!
However, Feng Jun had suggested she cultivate the Yang Thunder Scripture.
It was important to note that she had aspirations to form a Golden Core. As a disciple of one of the Four Great Sects, she was expected to have high aspirations.
If she successfully ford a Golden Core, she’d have to switch to a new technique, or even before, the Yang Thunder Scripture might not even be enough to allow her to reach that stage.
She could always pick a Thunder Scripture from the Five Elents Thunder Scripture, which would only cost so Contribution Points. However, the issue was that Feng Jun did not favor this route.
By now, she no longer doubted Feng Jun’s words. No wonder even soone like young Zi Yi respected him so much—this person truly had abilities.
After frowning and considering for a while, she cupped her hands again toward Feng Jun. “May I seek further guidance from Mountain Master Feng? Do I need to present a Thunder Technique before you for you to recomnd the best match?”
“Exactly,” Feng Jun nodded decisively. When he saw her inquire about another Thunder Technique from Huang Fu Wuxia, he knew she was weighing her options.
So, he stated clearly, “I can’t possibly know which Thunder Technique is best for you outright, but if assessed on-site, I can select the most suitable Cultivation Technique for you.”
An Yuhong rose and bowed deeply. “Thank you for your guidance, Mountain Master Feng. I am enlightened.”
The conversation wrapped up for now. An Yuhong wasn’t going to start cultivating Thunder Techniques imdiately just because of Feng Jun’s words. It wasn’t a matter of trust—it was that she had to verify his insights.
Afterward, everyone left Kong Ziyi’s small courtyard. Even Huang Fu Wuxia tactfully stepped out, releasing her camp abode into the open.
Huang Fu Wuxia’s camp was the simplest among the three, but today, she didn’t mind at all and even invited Feng Jun inside.
Her intentions were straightforward. Just as they entered, she asked, “What is An Yuhong’s attribute, in your judgnt?”
Feng Jun froze for a mont, then hesitated briefly before laughing lightly. “The terminology might differ a bit, but the key lies in judging the process correctly… Labels are man-made. What do you think, Fellow Daoist Huang Fu?”
Huang Fu Wuxia stared at him for a long while before breaking into a smile. “I just find it fascinating how you can see through all this so clearly.”
“There you go again,” Feng Jun sighed, pointing at her helplessly. “Kong Ziyi trusts to give her proper advice—I can’t just brush her off.”
“I want to know your thods!” Huang Fu Wuxia said defiantly. Then her eyes glead. “So, moving forward, if soone wants a technique matched, can I also co to you for help?”
“Well…” Feng Jun hesitated for a mont before nodding, “Of course, but I don’t co cheap.”
Huang Fu Wuxia faltered montarily before breaking into an elated grin. “That’s no problem, I’ll help you set the price! By the way, are you good at treating cultivation deviations?”
“No, not really,” Feng Jun answered, shaking his head with a dark expression. “You must be kidding. I’d never dare make such claims. At most, I can analyze aptitudes and match techniques. Anything else is beyond .”
anwhile, An Yuhong and Kong Ziyi were also discussing Feng Jun.
Sister An was still a bit puzzled over how Feng Jun had gained her junior sister’s absolute trust. “Zi Yi, should I believe what he says? If I choose a Thunder Technique, without a doubt it’ll be one from our sect. But if that’s the case, won’t my plans be exposed?”
As a Taiqing Disciple, it wasn’t forbidden to cultivate techniques from outside, especially supplentary ones, but she still trusted Taiqing’s teachings more.
Kong Ziyi, however, had different thoughts. “Are you sure about choosing a sect technique? Even if you want a Taiqing Thunder Technique, can you present multiple options for him to match for you?”
For Taiqing Disciples, selecting a technique could only be done in the Cultivation Technique Hall or the Scripture Pavilion; the techniques couldn’t even be taken out of those places. Only after choosing could one redeem the desired technique.
“Sigh,” Hearing this, An Yuhong felt a bit conflicted. “But I can’t possibly abandon our sect’s techniques to search all over for Thunder Techniques, right?”
Thunder Cultivation Techniques rarely circulated on the market—mainly because there were very few solo Thunder cultivators. Even an alliance as large as Tiantong only had two Thunder Techniques in one of its Fang Market branches.
Kong Ziyi didn’t see a problem. “Mountain Master Feng has a good relationship with Leitingyuan. At Leitingyuan, there must be plenty of Thunder Cultivation Techniques. If you don’t insist on Taiqing’s, that’s a good option too.”
“He has a good relationship with Leitingyuan too?” An Yuhong glanced at her in surprise, her curiosity growing.
Then she sighed deeply. “The key is that I must verify whether his judgnt is correct, but I dare not ask my master.”
Kong Ziyi gave her a look and nodded slightly. “Then I’ll ask my master on your behalf. The people of Zixia Peak don’t care much about Tianyao Peak.”
An Yuhong clasped her hands together urgently. “Thank you so much, Zi Yi… You won’t get scolded for disturbing Master Sumiao, will you?”
As a fifth-stage Out-of-Dust cultivator, Kong Ziyi was considered a core disciple, so disturbing her peak master for assistance wasn’t a big issue. But to do so for an outsider, an Out-of-Dust third-stage disciple at that, might invite criticism.
Kong Ziyi was well aware of the stakes, so she smiled faintly. “No problem. My master is fond of Mountain Master Feng. Many in our sect know this.”
An Yuhong, usually indifferent to unrelated matters, was surprised to hear this answer. “No way. The master knows him too?”
Kong Ziyi stood up and smiled at her. “Senior sister, sit tight for a mont. I’ll reach out to Master.”
As expected, Master Sumiao expressed great interest upon hearing about Feng Jun and his novel ideas.
After her granddaughter explained the situation, she deliberated for a mont before replying, “This possibility… is very real. Hidden Fierce Wind Gold was an old theory; it’s such a rare constitution that our sect hasn’t delved deeply into it.”
“But the Hidden Feng Lei Jin Body is even rarer… Did the Huang Fu family claim it’s a variant of Hidden Fierce Wind Gold?”
Even Golden Core Masters weren’t omniscient, and the Cultivation World held too much obscure, fragnted knowledge.
“That’s what she said, and she has a text to back it up,” Kong Ziyi answered honestly. “However, she guards the text jealously and wouldn’t let examine it.”
“I’ve long heard that old Huang Fu is sneaky, hoarding quite a few treasures,” Master Sumiao remarked offhandedly without showing any particular desire for the text. “Just knowing she has it is enough.”
Given her status and position, constantly yearning for every treasure that crossed her path would be far too taxing and antagonizing. It was better to carry a general awareness and tap into such resources only when necessary.
After deliberating for another mont, she finally stated, “From my calculations, Fierce Wind Gold cannot be refined with Thunder Techniques. But if it is confird as Feng Lei Jin, then this shouldn’t be a problem.”
