Thunderforce

Thunderforce (雷霆之力), used in Lightning Cultivation
== Story ==
Although Long Chen could control a bit of thunderforce, that had just come from a person. It was not at all the same as natural thunderforce. Natural thunderforce was at least thousands of times stronger. A mistake meant death!
Gathering natural thunderforce to use as his own was definitely a crazy idea.
=== Kite flying ===
Long Chen took out a string made of black silk. Tying it securely to his kite, he tested it a couple of times before being reassured. After all, this matter definitely could end up killing him if he wasn’t overly cautious.
The string was over three thousand meters long. Although it was only the thickness of a single finger, it would definitely not break.
He then tied the other end of the string to a huge boulder. “I’ll get on top of the kite and tie myself onto it securely so I won’t fall off. You let me fly into the sky, but always pay attention. When I’m about to be struck by the lightning, let go of the string. Although it doesn’t conduct electricity, it’s not an absolute insulator. If I end up passing out or something, you need to be ready to save me.”
It was as if Long Chen’s original thunderforce was water while this natural thunderforce was oil. The two of them refused to mix.
He tried a dozen times without succeeding. Then gritting his teeth, he directly gave up on his original thunderforce and began to try connecting to the natural thunderforce.
That thunderforce had no will, but it was exceptionally berserk like lava. As Long Chen attempted to refine it, it wildly attacked Long Chen’s spirit.
He had tried refining it and had failed. Now he tried connecting to it and failed. Long Chen now directly used the most berserk method, using his Spiritual Strength to wildly attack that thunderforce.
Long Chen’s thunderforce crazily attacked those strands of natural thunderforce. Although that natural thunderforce resisted crazily, it had no further source of power and was unable to continue fighting against Long Chen’s Spiritual Strength that continuously surged out.
Finally, Long Chen suppressed its berserk nature. After subduing it, he could control it as well as his old thunderforce. He used this new natural thunderforce to refine the thunderforce he had originally gotten from Lei Qianshang.
What pleasantly surprised Long Chen was that while his thunderforce had previously been like a sheep trying to devour a wolf, it had completely reversed now and this new thunderforce easily devoured his old thunderforce, refining it anew.
This new thunderforce rushed around Long Chen’s body. Although it wasn’t his core thunderforce, it was like a tamed Magical Beast inside him that he could control as he wished.

He was focused entirely on using his own thunderforce to devour the thunderforce invading his body.
Long Chen possessed his own thunderforce, thunderforce that had also come from tribulation lightning. However, there was a qualitative difference between it and the current thunderforce attacking him. The power difference was immense.
He needed to devour this attacking thunderforce bit by bit, gradually increasing the strength of his own thunderforce.
It was like a tiger cub trying to devour an elephant ten times its size. It was extremely difficult.
But he was gratified to find his original thunderforce was extremely voracious. No matter how much he fed it, it still didn’t get full. Furthermore, as he fed it, it continuously grew larger.
Within Long Chen’s blood, countless violet runes were beginning to grow. Those were his core thunderforce runes, and as he devoured more and more thunderforce, they also continuously grew stronger.
Now, Long Chen didn’t need to deliberately feed them. They would just automatically devour the thunderforce that invaded his body.
His thunderforce was growing stronger and stronger, something he urgently wished for.
Thunderforce was very rare and was capable of blocking Spiritual Strength. It was his greatest trump card when he ran into soul cultivators.
After all, soul items were external forces, and it was much more reliable to use his own strength. So thunderforce was something he urgently needed.
Unfortunately, he was always too busy and had no time to use his spiritual qi to nourish his thunderforce. So this lightning tribulation was also an opportunity for him.
Although he rarely used thunderforce, that was only because he didn’t have any high class Battle Skills that could control thunderforce. As for the Lightning Finger he had come up with, it was only useful against some experts.
But against supreme experts, it was useless. The time it took to activate was too long, and true experts would see through that opening in a glance. 
So although he didn’t use his thunderforce often, it didn’t mean that thunderforce was useless. It was simply that he didn’t have any good ways of using it.
However, Long Chen still wanted to raise it. After all, there were still many chances for him to obtain higher class Battle Skills in the future, but chances to increase his thunderforce were rare.
=== Serpent tattoo ===
On one of his arms was a tattoo of a blue serpent. He had another serpent tattoo on his other arm.
That was something he had only noticed after a while. This tattoo was extremely detailed, and it was even possible to see the serpent's tiny scales.
A careful examination would reveal that those weren't scales but formed from countless, tiny, flickering lightning runes. It was extremely bizarre.
"My thunderforce has actually all condensed into my left arm." There were no longer any thunderforce runes in his blood. All of it was in that one arm.
That arm's tattoo was like another Dantian to him, one that could only contain thunderforce. That transformation was extremely surprising to Long Chen.
