Chapter 33: Thunder Spirit Stone, the Prototype of a Magical Instrument
Ye Yu naturally had no idea what happened in Teng County, so he let Qi Xianyu and Lu Ling handle the affairs of the courtyard. In the quiet room, Ye Yu sat cross-legged, stroking several pieces of jade taken down from the high wall of the courtyard.

"Crackling~"

There was a faint electric light bursting out from the jade, and Ye Yu looked at it thoughtfully.

"These jade stones have actually undergone new changes..."

Ye Yu examined all the jades and came to a conclusion.

More than ten days have passed since Ye Yu arranged these jade stones.

According to Ye Yu's previous calculations, the amount of electricity that the jade can hold in a person should last for seven or eight days, after which the amount of electricity in the jade will decrease every day.

In about ten days, there should be no current.

But now it has been more than several days since the tenth day, and the jade in Ye Yu's hand still retains the power of thunder and lightning.

"Also, the jade is originally crystal clear and flawless, but now it has turned light blue, similar to the color of lightning."

Ye Yu looked at the jade in his hand and couldn't help muttering.

Yes, the first eight pieces of jade in Ye Yu's hand have changed from pure white to light blue. They feel warm to the touch, and it seems that the power of thunder and lightning stays inside, and the loss and dissipation has become smaller.

In addition to the eight pieces of jade used first, there are six more pieces that are being used for the first time and have not undergone any changes.

The difference is very obvious when comparing the two.

“However, after inputting lightning power twice, some of the properties of the jade have actually changed. If I continue to nurture it, will it be able to continue to transform…”

Thoughts were turning in Ye Yu’s mind.

"Thunder Spirit Stone!"

Almost instantly, these three words popped up in Ye Yu's mind.

Or it can be called thunder stone. If the jade is in the shape of a jade plate, it can also be called thunder talisman.

"In short, I seem to have figured out how to create a preliminary prototype of a magical instrument that contains mysterious power?"

Ye Yu felt a little excited.

If the jade continues to transform, can store lightning for a long time, and can be carried by people to kill enemies, then it will successfully become a disposable magic weapon.

If we can figure out a way to gather spirits, then the disposable magic weapon will become a permanent one.

"Continue to nourish with the power of thunder and lightning, and see what changes will happen later."

Thinking of this, Ye Yu immediately activated the purple qi cultivation method in his body. In an instant, the mysterious material energy of lightning and thunder from all directions began to gather towards Ye Yu's hands.

"Crackling~"

Countless dense electric arcs jumped in Ye Yu's hands, the light was dazzling and brilliant, and then began to flow into the jade along Ye Yu's hands.

In an instant, the energy circuit constructed in the jade lit up, and combined with the texture of the jade, it looked very beautiful and gorgeous.

After all the jade stones were infused with new energy, Ye Yu rearranged them properly.

By this time, the sky was gradually darkening, and under the supervision of Qi Xianyu and Lu Ling, the courtyard had already been cleaned.

"Put away a few psychedelic jade stones. If ordinary people come tomorrow, tell them that we have closed the mountain for cultivation and refuse visitors."

Ye Yu handed the jade stone engraved with the psychedelic array to Gai Nie to deal with. He was the leader among the group and was considered the senior brother.

"Yes, sir!"

Gai Nie bowed and saluted, then he led several fellow apprentices away.

They lived at the foot of the mountain and were responsible for guarding duties.

On the way back to Pei County from Teng County, Ye Yu had already taught them the internal cultivation techniques, and even, like Ying Zheng, he guided them into the door through the air.

As for how far they can cultivate in the future, it depends on their talent.

"From now on, it is our responsibility to guard the mountain gate. From now on, we will form a team of two, each on duty for one day. The rest of the time can be used for cultivation."

On the way down the mountain, Gai Nie said to everyone.

"Understood, Brother!"

These fellow apprentices thought that Gai Nie's words were appropriate and responded one after another.

"Sir, your psychedelic array is enough to shock ordinary people. We won't have too many problems on weekdays."

"After practicing the internal training method, I realized how arrogant I was before. Now I can't wait to practice every day. It feels so good to become stronger."

"With the inner force running, I feel my physical strength is much better than before."

Then everyone talked about their cultivation over the past two days. Everyone’s face was flushed and they were excited.

Although their internal strength is still very weak, but even a little bit of internal strength can make their swordsmanship more powerful.

Everyone is looking forward to the level of swordsmanship that will be achieved after reaching minor success.

"Junior Brother Han, please join me in the team!"

Gai Nie said to Han Xin who was beside him.

Among the crowd, Han Xin, who was proficient in strategy, was undoubtedly the worst at swordsmanship. After all, he was forced to crawl under the crotch of the hooligans and did not use the sword at his waist to fight, which showed that he had no confidence in dealing with those hooligans.

However, the swordsmen who are willing to fight Gai Nie are all top-notch swordsmanship masters, otherwise they would not be so confident in wanting to win the title of the world's number one swordsman.

"Yes, senior brother!"

Han Xin nodded in agreement, he understood that Gai Nie was taking care of him.

At this time, Han Xin's heart was quite excited, and he finally became a disciple of Master Ye. Although he was only an outer disciple, he actually learned power that he had never thought of before.

The real internal force in his body has been reminding him that the extraordinary power in the world has actually fallen into his body.

“I don’t know what Consummation will be like, I’m really looking forward to it. And my fellow practitioners talked about flying swords, lightning, and flying. I wonder if I’ll have the chance to obtain the true Dharma in this lifetime…”

Han Xin's thoughts couldn't help but diverge.

The news that Ye Yu had returned to Yinxian Peak had spread completely in less than two days.

Suddenly, the people within a hundred miles of Pei County were all in an excitement, and the noble families and gentry who were the first to receive the news began to visit.

According to the usual rules, even if Ye Yu closed the door and refused visitors, he could still get some immortal energy and be cured of all diseases!

For a moment, Gai Nie and Han Xin, who were on duty, were stunned by the scene before them.

At the foot of Yinxian Peak, there was a series of carriages, attendants, maids, and people, stretching for hundreds of meters.

Bustling, lively and noisy.

Such a grand occasion was in stark contrast to the desertedness of the previous two days. Gai Nie and Han Xin, who were on duty, were surprised and hurried forward to talk to those who wanted to go up the mountain.

"My master has closed the door to practice and is not welcoming visitors. Please come back later!"

Gai Nie bowed to everyone and said.

"No way, it's never been like this before!"

"We have come all the way here, please show some mercy and we will not disturb Master Ye when we go up the mountain!"

"Some time ago, there were soldiers on duty, but they didn't say we were not allowed to go up the mountain!"

"It seems that there was indeed a rumor about this incident two days ago. I didn't expect it to be true."

"Has Immortal Ye accepted a disciple? I wanted to have the Immortal take a look at my kid before!"

……

As soon as Gai Nie finished speaking, there was an uproar all around, with all kinds of voices being heard.

"We just want to go up the mountain and see Master Ye. You can't stop us!"

"I want to see Master Ye and ask him to accept me as his disciple."

These few days were enough for some news to spread, for example, people like Han Xin could be accepted as a disciple. They thought about how they could copy what Gai Nie and Han Xin did.

If you kneel before the gate of Yinxian Peak for more than ten days, you might have a chance to become an immortal.

But who would have thought that when I came here today, Yinxian Peak was closed to visitors.

Originally, these ruffians were hanging around in the streets. They were bold, shameless, and persistent. Their plan failed before it even started, so they were unwilling to accept it and had to make some trouble.

Three or four ruffians rushed out from both sides and between Gai Nie and Han Xin.

"what!"

A scoundrel was hit by the hilt of Gai Nie's sword. He grimaced in pain and staggered back.

Han Xin also grabbed another person by the collar and pushed him back.
The remaining two were a little further away from them and had already passed by them, howling in excitement.

Seeing them like this, some teenagers and young people couldn't help but want to try it out, but fortunately they were stopped by their parents' warning eyes.

But soon, everyone couldn't help but let out a light exclamation.

Because everyone saw that the two hooligans had just rushed to a wide stone staircase when they suddenly stopped.

"what happened?"

"This is where?"

The two ruffians looked around in horror.

This scene felt a little funny to the people who were watching. They stood on the stone steps, looking around with fear on their faces, as if they had seen something incredible.

Then they began to circle around, carefully observing their surroundings. Everyone could feel that the focus of their gaze around them did not seem to be in front of everyone, but stopped in the void.

"What happened? Is this a ghost?"

"Hiss, it makes my scalp tingle and my whole body is covered with goose bumps."

"Why is it so weird? What are they doing?"

Seeing them clearly right in front of him, it was as if he had seen another world. Their movements and behaviors were extremely strange, which immediately caused the people not far away to feel terrified.
