The Spear Of Thunder

"I'm not afraid, Master! I will definitely try to obtain it," Julius asserted after hearing the description of the conditions of the volcano mountain where he would later come to search for the Eternal ice flower plant.

Hearing Julius's optimistic response made his two Masters in front of him very pleased. Although in terms of cultivation level, the young man's abilities were still low, the techniques he mastered even exceeded those of the head of the Tower of the God Academy himself. This is what made both Masters confident that Julius would succeed in obtaining the Eternal ice flower plant.

"Chairman, wouldn't it be better to lend Julius the four-element sword as a weapon for him to face any possibilities out there?" suggested Master Lin.

"I don't think he needs that weapon because it doesn't suit the elements he possesses," Master Magnus Raven's gaze shifted to Julius. "Go up to the second level of this tower; there are many legendary weapons there, including those belonging to your family. I won't show you what weapon is your ancestor's legacy, but if that weapon is indeed your destiny, then it will choose you," he said to the young man.

Following the instructions of the Tower of the God Academy chairman, Julius proceeded to ascend to the second level of the Tower. He headed towards a portal connecting the first and second floors of the tower. After entering the reddish-colored portal, he was immediately taken to the second level of the Tower of the God. Julius could immediately see various weapons emitting tremendous power in the place.

"Who created this place in such a way to store legendary weapons without being known by others from the outside? From the outside of this tower, not even the slightest power emitted by the weapons here can be felt. The protective power of the Tower of the God on this second level is far more formidable than the protection on the first level."

 Julius walked around every corner of the place. He stopped right in front of a spear-shaped weapon emitting very strong lightning power. Julius felt that the power of the spear surpassed that of the Four-Element God Sword. Although it consisted of only one elemental attribute, the power it emitted was far more powerful than the sword currently owned by the head of the Tower of the God Academy.

"It seems that this weapon is suitable for me, with this rough body more inclined to lightning elemental power."

Feeling confident that the spear in front of him was a suitable weapon for him to use, Julius approached the spear and took it. But how surprised the young man was when he tried to grasp the shaft of the spear; the lightning power emanating from the spear struck him. Because he didn't expect to be attacked like that, he was immediately thrown back. Fortunately, the young man did not suffer any injuries from the incident.

"Hmmmm ... why did the weapon attack me? Does it have a soul or already have an owner, so it doesn't want me to touch it," Julius murmured, slightly surprised by the incident.

 Julius tried again to take the spear he had targeted earlier. But this time, the young man had prepared for all possibilities. He immediately emitted the lightning elemental power within his body to counterbalance the power emanating from the staff. He then grabbed the shaft of the spear emitting lightning power.

Blarrrr!

Once again, Julius was thrown back as the lightning force from the spear was even stronger than before. The lightning elemental power emanating from the young man's body couldn't withstand the onslaught of lightning power from the spear. This time, the effect felt by Julius was heavier. He felt a tightness in his chest.

 Julius fell silent for a moment. He tried to find a way to conquer the spear. Julius then attempted to perform the contract seal technique he had learned at the Tower of the God Academy.

Blammmm!

Once again, Julius's efforts failed. The explosion caused by the attack of the lightning spear made the Tower of the God tremble. Even now, it could be felt by the people at the Tower of the God Academy elsewhere. Julius himself was now injured due to the severity of the impact.

"Will that kid succeed in getting it? He has chosen the strongest weapon in the room," muttered the chairman of the Tower of the God Academy.

"What weapon did he choose, chairman?" asked Master Lin Duano.

"That child has chosen the strongest weapon in this Tower of the God. Namely, the Spear of Thunder, Deity of the Universe, the spear of the God who created this Tower of the God. I didn't expect that child to choose that weapon. Although inside there is a sword that is the ancestral weapon of his family. A powerful weapon as well, though not as powerful as the Spear of Thunder, Deity of the Universe, but the sword will channel the power possessed by its user. In other words, through that sword, Julius can enhance the quality of lightning attacks without injuring himself," replied the chairman of the Tower of the God Academy.

The sword mentioned by the chairman of the Tower of the God Academy is an heirloom weapon that has been kept by 's family ancestors in that place. That weapon had once been discussed by Julius's grandfather. But apparently, the young man wasn't interested in that sword. Yet, the sword also emitted tremendous power, the two most prominent weapons in the place.

"Chairman, why when Julius first entered this Tower of the God, all the powers inside it became active. Even though for more than 100 years, most of those powers have stopped to function. As far as I know, according to the story of the previous chairman, only a god can reactivate those powers. As we know, the child has a very weak body, which is impossible for a god to have a body for that long," Master Lin Duano asked.

Initially, Master Lin Duano wanted to ask the chairman of the Tower of the God Academy about the possibility that Julius was a disguised god. But he refrained from asking because he had checked the young man's body himself and found his physical condition very weak. A body that was very unsuitable for a cultivator. He immediately dismissed the suspicion because he considered it impossible.

"I myself do not understand why this can happen. It is likely that the young man is being observed by a god who may be his own ancestor. Perhaps within his martial spirit, there is a godly power derived from his ancestor who became that God. That is why the child is so talented and easily masters all the techniques we teach. The only obstacle he has is his rough body that does not support his abilities," replied Master Magnus Raven.

"It seems what you explain is likely true, chairman."

Master Lin simply agreed with the explanation of the chairman of the Tower of the God Academy, even though he had his own thoughts about the incident. Master Lin deliberately didn't want to reveal it. Because he himself still doubted his thoughts.
