I studied abroad in modern times

When Zheng Fa walked into the room, both Old Man Bai and Tang Lingwu were busy.

Tang Lingwu processed the data collected from various sensors on the computer, including the current size and voltage intensity of each electric shock, including temperature, as well as the shape and color of the lightning captured by the high-speed camera.

Old Man Bai looked at the various patterns on the paper, trying to find the key.

Zheng Faxian walked to Old Man Bai and sat down. He felt a little tired after a long absence.

The thunder method in the Sky Monument Realm is a bit strange: the power of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder is much greater than the ordinary thunder method. On the other hand, the requirements for cultivation are relatively low.

Like Zheng Fa, who was only in the foundation building stage and had just released nearly eighty-nine times of Heavenly Tribulation Thunder. If he hadn't wanted to leave some spiritual power for the "Lingshan Method", he probably would have had the energy to do it two more times.

But he didn't feel it just now. At this moment, his head felt a tingling sensation, and the feeling was most obvious in his temples - as if someone was holding an electric drill and trying to open a tunnel through his head from left to right.

He sat at the table, pinching his temples, remembering a similar situation recorded in the Nine Mountains Sect's classics - this was a sign of slight damage to the soul after excessive consumption.

This matter was very rare for him. Compared with his cultivation in the early stage of foundation building, the strength of his consciousness even exceeded that in the later stage of foundation building.

Generally speaking, his spiritual power should be exhausted before his soul.

This made him wonder whether the excessive power of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder came from the excessive consumption of the monks' souls.

"Zheng Fa, what's wrong with you?"

Old Man Bai's eyes were originally focused on the draft in front of him, and he seemed to sense something was wrong with him. When he turned around and saw his pale face, he couldn't help but ask.

"It's okay. My consciousness has been exhausted. I just need to rest more these days." Zheng Fa shook his head and said, "Have you discovered anything?"

The Heavenly Tribulation Thunder is the most basic thunder method among the Heavenly Monument thunder methods.

However, Yan Wushuang and others failed to grasp it. There are two main reasons:

The first is that no one knows how the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder is generated.

In other words, among so many patterns, which pattern can be the symbol of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder.

Without understanding this, the second question naturally arises: how to control the strength of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder.

At this time, Old Man Bai is trying to study the first point. The idea is actually very simple: every time Zheng Fa successfully casts the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder, he collects the spiritual power traces, and then uses topology to find the same pattern in the traces:

This is exactly the same as studying Fulu.

But for monks in the Xuanwei world who have not been trained in topology, none of these trajectories may be the same...

"Well, it's very simple." Old Man Bai pointed to the scratch paper on the table: "These patterns will appear every time, but the number of times they appear is different each time."

Zheng Fa looked at it, nodded and said: "If the Five Elements Talisman is added, this would probably be the Talisman of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder."

According to the three-element talisman law guessed by him, Old Man Bai and others, if spells are regarded as another form of spiritual talisman, then the spiritual power itself can provide the five-element talisman, and these running trajectories should correspond to the two-element talisman. Three types of sub-talents.

"Yes...it's a pity that we didn't find that this Heavenly Tribulation Thunder pattern has a common sub-talisman with other thunder spells." Old Man Bai just looked at it because of this: "If Lingwu's conjecture about the interactive sub-talisms is true, That thunder method...should have exactly the same sub-talisman."

Zheng Fa also pondered a little when he heard the words.

They study the thunder method because the target of this spell is relatively simple. Whether the thunder method essentially acts on electrons or electromagnetic fields... the objects should be the same, which means they have the same sub-talisman. .

Can……

No.

This resulted in them always feeling like a blind man touching an elephant when it comes to these two types of symbols, and they touched different parts every time.

…

"Okay!" Just as Tang Lingwu was talking, there was a soft cry from Tang Lingwu's side. The two turned to look and saw various lightning patterns on Tang Lingwu's computer screen, with different colors and different lengths. .

There are some undulating curves on the side.

It shows the current, voltage and temperature formed by each lightning bolt on the metal pillar.

Zheng Fa and Old Man Bai walked over and looked at the various data on the screen.

"Is there any pattern?" Old Man Bai asked.

"There are no special rules, except the correspondence between current and voltage, and the correspondence between temperature and lightning color."

Zheng Fa nodded. These have a certain corresponding relationship in physics.

"Look at this?" Old Man Bai handed over the analyzed pattern. Tang Lingwu frowned when she looked at it. She suddenly seemed to remember something and continued to operate on the keyboard. She had no time to pay attention to Zheng Fa and the other two.

Zheng and Fa looked at each other, stepped forward, and looked at the computer screen.

"Is this...fitting?"

Zheng Fa understood it after looking at it for a while. Tang Lingwu was fitting the number of times the same runes appeared with various data, trying to find out the pattern.

These data are not complicated, and can even be said to be simple.

An equation quickly appeared on the computer.

Old Man Bai looked at it for a moment, then summed it up directly: "The current intensity is roughly proportional to the sixth power of this number?"

Zheng Fa was also a little surprised. The fitting result here is actually a bit simple. It is a simple sixth-order equation. Putting aside the coefficients, the variable X in the equation is the number of times the symbol appears, and the The other end is the peak value of the current.

"In other words, if you want to control the power of thunder and lightning, you only need to control the number of times the rune appears?"

Several people looked at this formula and were a little silent. This formula is too simple, so simple that people are not confident.

"In other words, the number of times the talisman appears will determine the energy of the tribulation thunder that day." Old Man Bai frowned and concluded: "This... seems to be similar to the action process of the talisman?"

"Yes." Zheng Fa also thought of this: "When drawing the talisman, it will absorb the talisman in the void. In other words - this increases the number of times the talisman appears. The more times, the greater the power."

Zheng Fa said slowly. He looked at the formula and suddenly said: "This thing reminds me of a concept in junior high school physics..."

"What?"

"Gong." Zheng Fa slowly explained: "Whether it is aura or spiritual power, these runes are the paths through which they flow - only along some special paths can the correct impact be produced. It can almost be compared to following this path. Paths perform useful work on certain substances."

"And I can feel that as the spiritual power moves on the trajectory, my spiritual power is also consumed - that is to say, my spiritual power is converted into lightning energy through the movement of this trajectory."

"Let's put it this way..." Old Man Bai said blankly: "It's very similar! Spiritual power does work and is converted into corresponding electrical energy, but it's not linear..."

"Then we have summarized the functional equation of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder?" Tang Lingwu listened for a long time and concluded.

"It should be called the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Spirit Energy Equation. With this equation, at least controlling the strength of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder will not be a problem." Old Man Bai corrected: "But, yes! We made a discovery in our first experiment!"

Speaking of this, Old Man Bai sighed again: "How can I feel that this research on immortality can yield new results at any time..."

He actually said with some regret: "It's a pity that we don't have a journal here...otherwise, if we publish papers, we won't be like old sows giving birth to cubs!"

Zheng Fa smiled, if he could really control the Heavenly Monument Realm and have a safe rear area, journals and so on... he wouldn't have no plans.

…

Xuanwei world.

Zheng Fa was meditating in his room, slowly recovering his soul, still thinking about the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Spirit Energy Equation.

This equation reveals an extremely simple but long-ignored phenomenon - the power of a spell is determined by how many effective paths the spiritual power or spiritual energy has traveled.

In fact, people in the Xuanwei world are not without this feeling. They actually know that the more similar runes a spiritual talisman attracts, the greater the power of the spiritual talisman. However, it is another matter to understand the quantitative relationship.

Now, at least Zheng Fa has a direction to control the power of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder.

…

While Zheng Fa was concentrating on his cultivation, Uncle Pang was also chatting with Senior Sister Zhang in the main hall. Unsurprisingly, the center of their conversation was Zheng Fa.

"If we can control the Heavenly Monument Realm..." Uncle Pang's eyes could not help but be filled with excitement: "Our Jiushan Sect will have no worries in the future... I just don't know how sure Senior Nephew Zheng is."

Senior Sister Zhang knew that this was not because Uncle Pang did not trust Zheng Fa enough, but that when faced with such a huge opportunity, people would inevitably worry about gains and losses and have random thoughts. She comforted: "Junior Brother Zheng's character... you also understand, Uncle Master."

"Um?"

"Coward!"

"Yeah...that's right!"

"Junior Brother Zheng is always cautious. I discovered it when he was helping me manage the market... He never fully talks about something, and he can only say eight points at most about something he is very sure of." Senior Sister Zhang's words made Uncle Pang slowly nod. : "Now that he has told us that he wants to control the Heavenly Monument Realm, I'm afraid he is quite certain in his heart."

Hearing what she said, a smile gradually appeared on Uncle Pang's face, even with a bit of embarrassment: "You see clearly, my nephew, but I have lost my normal mind and actually want you to comfort me."

Senior Sister Zhang shook her head and said: "Uncle Master is not unaware of this, he just takes Jiu Shan Sect too seriously..."

Hearing this, Master Pang's smile became even more embarrassing. He looked towards Zheng Fa's room and said softly: "It's a pity that there are very few disciples of our Jiu Shan Sect who practice the thunder method... I can't give Zheng Fa any help... No, I have to send people to the market to find out if there are any new spiritual materials!"

Seeing his worried look, Senior Sister Zhang couldn't help but laugh.

Just when Uncle Pang was about to invite his disciples to go to Fangshi, the two of them suddenly seemed to feel something at the same time and looked outside Fangshi.

A ray of purple clouds came from the sky and fell in front of Leichifang City in the blink of an eye. The rays of light scattered, and a tall and beautiful woman with a small bell in her bun stood in front of the city. She faced the Five Dragons Temple. He cupped his fists and said, "Is Master Jiushan Zongpang here? Xiao Yuying is here to visit."

She looked to be in her twenties, but her words meant she was on an equal footing with Zhenren Pang.

There was actually a moment of silence in the noisy Leichifang City. People in the city looked at the woman carefully, wondering why she spoke so loudly.

"Xiao Yuying?" Uncle Pang from the Five Dragons Heavenly Palace was stunned for a moment, as if he had recalled something, his expression changed drastically, and he walked out.

The middle door of Wulong Heavenly Palace opened wide, and Master Pang walked quickly towards the outside of Fang City, hoping to greet him personally.

"Fairy Lingye, come here, my Five Dragon Heavenly Palace will be full of glory... Please come in quickly, please come in quickly!"

After hearing his words, everyone in the city understood who this woman was.

"It's Fairy Lingye... No wonder Master Pang is so solemn."

"She came here also for this thunder pool?"

"To talk nonsense, Fairy Lingye was known as the number one in Golden Core Thunder during her golden elixir period. She was as famous as Fairy Jiushan Zongzhang, and even entered Nascent Soul earlier than Zhang Wuyi... In addition to the Lei Pond, what else is worthy of her coming here? of?"

"Who said there isn't one? Isn't it the Sky Monument?"

…

"Fairy Xiao, are you also here for the Heavenly Monument?"

In the Five Dragons Heavenly Palace, Uncle Pang and Senior Sister Zhang were receiving Fairy Lingye Xiao Yuying. After a few words, she explained her purpose of coming.

"Exactly, I heard that the Heavenly Monument here is related to the Thunder Law, so I intend to investigate. When meeting with Master Pang, you also want to ask your sect if you know anything about the Heavenly Monument."

"I understand...of course I have some knowledge." Uncle Pang glanced at Senior Sister Zhang and knew that some things were easy for a Yuanying Master to find out, and hiding them would be a bit arrogant.

He simply talked about the matter about the earth seal and the thunder method of the heavenly monument, and Xiao Yuying's beautiful eyes flashed, seeming to be extremely interested.

Uncle Pang and Senior Sister Zhang looked at each other, feeling increasingly bad in their hearts. He asked Xiao Yuying dryly: "This Leichi has been around for a long time, why did the fairy just come?"

Xiao Yuying seemed a little embarrassed: "The Lei Pond is inherently dangerous, and the Demon Sect of Freedom is on its side... Naturally, I have to be more cautious."

"..."

Senior Sister Zhang is a little speechless. Now that they have defeated the Great Freedom Demon Sect, you are here?

"But...if someone else had gone in early and obtained this heavenly monument, wouldn't the fairy be delayed?"

Xiao Yuying smiled: "Others? Who? Yan Wushuang from Tianhe Sect?"

She actually started to comment on Yan Wushuang: "This person has a lot of heart and perseverance, but his talent and understanding are a little bit behind... I can let him go for a few months without getting in the way."

The tone of her voice revealed her extreme confidence in herself.

After inquiring about the news, Xiao Yuying suddenly said: "I came here because there is one more thing..."

"Um?"

"If I control that monument, I'm afraid this thunder pool won't be able to stop the Great Freedom Demon Sect." Xiao Yuying actually said this: "I came here specifically to visit Master Pang just to remind you that Jiu Shan Sect has already Be prepared.”

"This..." Uncle Pang was stunned, not knowing what to say: "Thank you, Fairy, for reminding me."

"That's good." Xiao Yuying nodded and said to the two of them, "Then I'll take my leave. I'd also like to thank Master Pang for the news."

"Easy to say, easy to say..."

Watching her walking away, Uncle Pang was silent for a long time, and then suddenly said: "This person is really extraordinary."

"Um?"

"If it weren't for the amazing ability, this kind of character that speaks of kindness so infuriatingly..." Uncle Pang sighed, "Can he survive to the Nascent Soul?"

Senior Sister Zhang thought for a while and looked at herself again, feeling that Uncle Pang's words...

Makes sense!

"It's just that this person's talent in thunder magic is by no means inferior to your Talisman talent, nephew Zhang. He should be Zheng Fa's formidable rival..." Uncle Pang's tone showed deep concern.
