"Holy Crap! Are these really my stats?" Johnny caught his head with both of his hands and shouted in a surprised expression. He was utterly shocked after seeing the transformation. His strength, speed, constitution, and spirit have a huge sprint. He also found a new column about talent.
Then he began to think about the changes he has gone through. He felt overwhelming knowledge and wisdom about every martial art he practices. His Dark Arrow has reached perfection meaning he can shoot his Dark Arrow with less Mana, and get powerful destruction ability. His Shadow Steps were also in perfection.
Now, he realizes the talent of the soul race. Because since he has already reached Perfection, he doesn't need high-level dark elements to perform the third level of Shadow Steps. And he can also create ten shadows with his 2nd level dark element though it will surely consume a lot.
But why does he need to care about it? He has ten times the Mana inside his Mana Space and at least a hundred times in outer space of his Mana Space. Most power breakthroughs were about reaching the 2nd Layer of Thunder Dragon Sacred Art because even if he has reached perfection in the previous layer, he couldn't see the way to reach the 2nd level as if it truly needed enlightenment.
Fortunately, this time he reached the 2nd Layer and find out about the true power of Thunder Dragon Sacred Art. This art was created by a supreme magician from the ancient ear, after seeing the destructive power of thunder within a dragon.
According to those words he heard, he can guess thunder is part of the lightning while being a completely different existence. From what he knows from Real Thunder Body Tempering Art, Lightning is a pure judge that differentiates between evil and good. So, lightning possesses two powers; one being death and another being life.
Death is life destruction, after all, destruction can bring death, while Life is like creation, giving life to the universe. Lightning is something that only Heaven possesses that is a trace of the lightning; While Gods previously possesses real thunder. But real thunder left the possession of the Gods. On one encounter, it met the young dragon living under the cave.
This dragon was surprisingly not afraid of thunder. Due, to the betrayal of the thunder, Gods got angry and tried to search for it in the entire universe. Thunder was already injured due to the fight against the gods. The young dragon unconsciously merged with the thunder when its power was at the weakest.
Thus the thunder dragon was born. It faces many challenges; slowly rise up to the peak. Since he possesses thunder, and when gods find out about it. They got angry, and wage the war against him. Thunder Dragon was no longer weak, no longer young; he was full of energy, so he fights. He fought against the gods.
Though real thunder ran away, gods had already created replacement it. Even though its power was not as strong as real thunder, it could fight. Because the real thunder was not fully recovered. Both were suffering lots of injuries but since thunder dragon was alone. It suffered the most, which created a chance for gods to kill him.
Unfortunately, heaven intervened. Heaven took the thunder dragon as its representative to give punishment to all evils. With no choice left, the thunder dragon agreed and became heaven's representative. So, instead of lightning, thunder is used by heaven to punish evil or something that goes against heaven.
During that fight, a young man from the human race was observing the full fight. It is said this young man possesses the Ancient Tree of Enlightenment which help him create the Thunder Dragon Sacred Art which is now the top art of the Thunder Family.
When Johnny was enlightened, he only learned the first stance from Nine Stances of Thunder Dragon. The first stance is called Rushing Thunder Fist. In this move, Johnny draws the Mana in his Fist but doesn't release it.
Instead, he makes the Mana into a pure solid form of thunder, then rushes towards the enemy. When he reaches near the enemy, he slammed his fist made out of a pure form of thunder. The longer, he takes the more solid will it be but the enemy definitely won't wait, so he needs to rush towards him.
And in this art, the faster you can create a solid form of thunder, the higher the level you can reach. This is why it is called Rushing Thunder Fist. There is only one way to reach a high level in every art i.e. through 'Control'.
But there are two ways to have higher control; the first is through practice, and the second is through enlightenment. Whenever a person uses Mana to attack, he needs to train his vein every single time, so that he can use more Mana for an attack which will make the attack even more destructive.
But using more Mana may burst the veins which is a serious problem. So either, they need to make their veins stronger by practicing the same art over and over again. Or they can use enlightenment to gain perfect control over the flow of Mana.
So, here talent matters a lot. If you have talent, then you can have higher control, and if you practice hard. Then you can reach perfection in no-time. Though Johnny has talent, he also uses A.I.'s help to understand the battle arts, and he practices hard too. So, he can easily reach perfection in no time at all.
Now that, his talent has increased, even more, he can understand Battle Arts even better and faster. But he wasn't in hurry to try this art. So, he began to understand his current battle power. His Azure Dragon Claw and White Tiger Bites have also gone through a transformation.
His Azure Dragon Claw can be used to fight against someone with one or even two levels higher than him which is completely insane. While his White Tiger Bites can be used continuously more than five times without losing half of his spiritual energy.
His Gene has also reached twenty-five percent, and unlocked ability called Thunder Snap. Strangely this is a movement art, with a snap of his finger he can turn himself into the thunder and travel a short distance in a fast movement like teleportation.
He needs to snap his finger so that he can release thunder energy in an irregular way, and disappear in confusion. It's like distracting others with his thunder and moving at extreme speed. Thunder itself possesses extreme speed, and if it used in the correct way he can move like real thunder.
But he needs to have fluent movement so that he can distract others with thunder, and move in the distraction. Of course, it can't be used for attacking opponents with movement because this art only allows him to evade the attack.
Though his thunder can be used to collide against the attack, and while this happening he can create thunder boots as Thunder Snaps suggested. Thunder boots can enhance his leg power to almost five or ten times faster but it doesn't allow to perfectly controlling his body movement.
Maybe only after merging a hundred percent with the Thunder-Elephant gene, he can use Thunder Snap (Thunder Boots) for movement rather than evading only. Normally, these abilities are not classified into different realms, so only by merging more with Thunder-Elephant Gene or by increasing his own strength, he can bring its true power.
After that, he finally got his attention on the Martial Arts he practices. The growth of the Cloud Covering Palm and Red Sun Spear Technique has shocked him. Further, he realizes his growth, more shocked he gets.
