63 Red Thunder Evolution, Advent Of A War (1/2)

After the meeting with the Saint Gods, Jam went back to the house the Munchies gave him. There, he briefed his friends on the things that were discussed in the meeting. Afterwards, the group talked about their next course of action. Somewhere along the conversation Kirin asked Jam ”Have you asked the Junkie Elders about the special environments?”

Kirin had a point. The Junkie Tribe was one of the biggest groups in the center of the pocket dimension. If anyone knew where the best special environments where located, it was bound to be them.

Jam took note, and confirmed ”Tomorrow I'll ask the Junkie Elders where some of the special environments around the center of the pocket dimension are.”

Jam continued chatting with his friends for a while, before leaving for his room. He wanted to spend some more time meditating on the Space Dao as that was the only thing holding back from reaching the Saint Realm. However, Danger Noodle asked Jam if they could trade Dao insights.

Jam agreed to her request since he felt bad for not interacting with her all this time. Jam was starting to understand that he was neglecting the people around him, trading the time he would have spent talking to his friends with cultivation.

Tzatziki had once mentioned that Cultivation was not just about mindlessly meditating and absorbing energy. Experiences were sometimes the most crucial parts of cultivation; life experiences to be exact.

…

Jam walked out of the house and headed to the forested area outside of the village to discuss Dao Insights with Danger Noodle. Since both of them had Thunder Dao Domains, one of the best ways for them to trade insights would be to show the application of their insights through a domain.

Since Danger Noodle was a Saint Lord with a legitimate Thunder Dao Domain, she began the discussion. She casted out her Dao Domain, which at this point had a range of over 8,000 kilometers, and said ”Let's start off with the simplest aspect of thunder; Essence. As you know the quality of thunder energy you can produce relies almost entirely on the level of your insights towards thunder's essence...”

Danger Noodle condensed some thunder energy into actual thunder and began explaining to Jam how she thought of thunder.

”Thunder is dangerous and hard to control, the better you get a controlling its berserk nature, the greater the potency of the thunder you yield. As you know, our thunder is predominantly red with a yellow outline since we are at the Lesser Dao Mastery level — Saint Dao Domain level. Once we gain enough control, the color will turn completely red and our Daos of Thunder will reach the Greater Dao Accomplishment level — Sage Dao Domain level.”

Jam would periodically chip in his thoughts and as he heard this comment from Danger Noodle, he said. ”While I won't say your Dao of Thunder is wrong, each person has their own personal Dao and I respect that, I'll disagree with you with regards to the nature of thunder.”

He showed some thunder move around in his hands and said ”I see what you mean when you say that thunder is berserk in nature, but for me at least, to improve in the Dao of Thunder, I try to find the patterns of behavior that fit for my attacks and use the thunder without directly controlling that berserk nature.”

Jam went through a couple examples for Danger Noodle to see his point, when all of a sudden Danger Doodle's eyes started glowing. Jam could see Danger Noodle's Dao Domain increase the thunder energy density while also expanding in size and realized that Danger Noodle was making a breakthrough in her Dao Cultivation.

Jam saw that this was a good chance to improve her cultivation base as well so he started using Essense Devouring with his Divinity and Divinity Form. At his current level, he could manipulate the maelstrom he generated and allowed Danger Noodle to take in all the energy he summoned from the environment. With Jam's help, Danger Noodle took in all the energy within a couple thousand kilometers around them.

As Danger Noodle floated in the air and absorbed the energy Jam gathered for her, her body started growing; elongating in length and becoming thicker. The energy generated from the maelstrom of Essence Devouring shot into Danger Noodle's mouth like a beam from the heavens. Even with her increasingly growing body, she looked like a thin branch when juxtaposed with the beam of energy which formed tumultuous clouds above her.

At the last moment that her Dao Domain was being upgraded, everything within the Dao Domain received a substantial shock of thunder energy.

Since the Domain was being upgraded, it was also expanding rapidly, only stopping once it reached above 10,000 kilometers in diameter. Everything in range was charred black instantaneously by streaks of red thunder; except for Jam of course. With his power, the thunder energy that charred the world only stung a bit.

It was a good thing that they decided to move away from the Junkie Village, else the village would be in pretty bad shape right about now. Cultivators below the Saint Realm would find it difficult to survive these pieces of thunder, so all the non-cultivators and young people would have died.

After the dust from Danger Noodle's outburst settled, Jam found Danger Noodle hovering in front of him. Not only had Danger Noodle grown to a ridiculous size of 150 meters long, from the pressure she was emitting, Jam could tell that she had advanced to the Saint God Stage. Now that she was a Saint God with a Sage-tier Dao Domain, there would no longer be many people that can challenge her in the Titanic Beast Mountain Range.

Danger Noodle shrunk down into her ”noodle” form and began to wrap herself around Jam body; presumably to show her gratitude. She said ”Thank you so much master!” she didn't even realize that she had called Jam ”master.”
