Chapter 198: Comprehending the Lightning Technique, Comprehension Complete! Capture Her Alive!
The sword’s edge was so sharp it almost split the air.
If it connected, Li Mo’s head would undoubtedly separate from his body.
Li Mo’s expression grew serious as he released his grip on the long sword and prepared to retreat.
But at that moment, he suddenly felt an icy chill on his wrist.
Bai Xianwu’s left hand, previously frozen, suddenly released its cold air, her slender fingers clutching Li Mo’s wrist like a hook.
Yet her right-hand sword continued its relentless assault!
At the critical moment, Li Mo tilted his head, narrowly avoiding the blade that passed close to his ear.
Bai Xianwu seemed to have anticipated this.
Her sword tip pivoted without breaking momentum, striking again towards him.
With her hand clutching Li Mo’s wrist, the two seemed connected.
Not giving him any chance to retreat.
As Li Mo dodged the second strike, the third one followed immediately.
Amidst their intense clash.
The pitch-black night sky suddenly lit up.
A bolt of lightning tore through the darkness!
Followed by a deafening thunderclap.
Bai Xianwu’s body shuddered, her movements pausing momentarily.
Li Mo clenched his right fist.
His Qi gathered, making his fist glow brilliantly.
With one punch, he struck towards her abdomen!
The force was so great that it tore the fabric at the back of Bai Xianwu’s outfit.
Her grip on Li Mo’s wrist finally loosened.
Her body was sent flying two or three dozen meters away!
Flipping once in mid-air, she landed steadily on the ground.
The air turned turbulent as a storm seemed imminent.
Bai Xianwu now appeared quite distressed.
Her waist-length hair was in disarray, dancing wildly in the wind.
A large tear had appeared in her back at the waist.
A red long sword was still stuck in her heart.
Bai Xianwu glanced swiftly at the sky.
Then she reached out, drawing a cloak from a distance.
She tied it around her waist to cover her exposed skin.
“How can this be?”
Fei Yan and Flaming-Jade Assassins came rushing over after dealing with several puppets.
Seeing Bai Xianwu with a long sword through her heart, Flaming-Jade Assassin’s scalp tingled.
How is she not dead yet?
“She can’t be killed.”
Li Mo clenched his left fist, circulating the Qi in his body to dispel the chill from Bai Xianwu’s earlier attack.
A person already dead, how can they die again?
No wonder she used such reckless attacks without any defense.
Li Mo could stab her ten times, and she wouldn’t care.
She wouldn’t even bleed.
Bai Xianwu’s true terror lay not in her speed or strength.
But in her undying nature!
“Burn her to ashes; I don’t believe she won’t die.”
Flaming-Jade Assassin waved her hairpin, sending a fireball toward Bai Xianwu.
Bai Xianwu casually slashed the fireball in half with her sword.
Then, gripping the red sword lodged in her heart with her left hand, she slowly pulled it out.
Her face expressionless, it seemed she felt no pain at all.
The poison on her palm was destroyed by her cold energy and no longer spread.
Bai Xianwu held the sword with both hands.
Looking at Yan Lingji coldly, she said, “Glow of a firefly, wishful thinking.”
With Yan Lingji’s ninth rank strength, it was nearly impossible to harm her.
The Black Jade Qilin only succeeded in a sneak attack because it took her by surprise.
But even so, she still reacted in time to block it with her palm.
Yan Lingji’s face turned ugly, her eyebrows raised as she said, “How could such an existence exist, what exactly is she?”
Strong as she might be, she was still unkillable.
Isn’t this the same as cheating?
Fei Yan, looking pensive, said, “Only the supreme yang energy can restrain the extremest yin object.”
The Yin-Yang School derived from Taoism.
Many of its philosophies align with Taoism.
Taoism emphasizes mutual generation and restraint between yin and yang.
Normal people are composed of both yin and yang energies.
When yin prospers, yang decreases; when yang prospers, yin weakens.
Fei Yan was born under strong yang and yin energies, which is why her body temperature is higher than normal.
Bai Xianwu, on the other hand, is entirely opposite.
Born in yang, dies in yin.
She was already dead and has an extremest yin body.
Only supreme yang power can restrain her.
Li Mo raised his head, murmuring, “Supreme yang power.”
The “Soul Dragon Tour” used by Fei Yan also belongs to the realm of supreme yang power.
But the problem is that she has not yet reached the Transcendent Realm.
The “Soul Dragon Tour” she displays with inner power alone is not strong enough to cause substantial harm to Bai Xianwu.
“I’ve got it!”
Li Mo suddenly lowered his head, realizing something.
“What have you got?”
Yan Lingji was stunned for a moment.
Her big blue eyes blinked, looking at him in bewilderment.
Li Mo said seriously, “The supreme yang power.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of lightning split through the pitch-black night.
Then came a loud boom!
Thunder roared!
Bai Xianwu frowned and subconsciously stepped back.
She glanced up, and a flash of fear passed through her eyes.
“This is it!”
Li Mo sensed the flash of fear in her eyes and said in a deep voice.
“Lightning?”
Fei Yan’s eyes swept across the dark night sky.
Then she nodded and said, “Lightning indeed is supreme yang power, but how can it deal with her?”
Yan Lingji’s eyes sparkled, suddenly lighting up.
“You want to draw down this lightning to strike her?”
Li Mo shook his head and said, “She’s too agile; even if we could draw down the lightning, it wouldn’t catch up to her.”
The lightning takes ages to strike.
Bai Xianwu wouldn’t just stand there waiting for them to call down the lightning.
Yan Lingji rolled her eyes dramatically and said speechlessly, “Then you said all that for nothing.”
Li Mo said slowly, “No need to draw lightning; I am the lightning.”
After saying that, he ignored Yan Lingji’s questioning and calmed himself, starting to feel the supreme yang energy that filled the air after the lightning strike.
The molecules of lightning filled the world like invisible dust.
Li Mo’s Qi circulated through his body, mind open, entering a state of unity with nature.
Sensitive perceptions captured the remaining traces of lightning energy.
He pondered its composition.
Yan Lingji looked at him puzzled, seeing that he hadn’t moved for a long time, feeling curious.
“Hey, what are you…”
“Don’t interrupt him.”
Before she could finish, Fei Yan interrupted.
Fei Yan’s gentle eyes were filled with incredible admiration as she looked at Li Mo with awe.
“What is he doing?”
Yan Lingji didn’t understand what Li Mo was doing.
But Fei Yan’s serious expression made it look like it wasn’t a simple matter.
“He’s cultivating.”
Suddenly, Fei Yan softly said.
Yan Lingji and Black Jade Qilin were both stunned.
Fei Yan couldn’t help but feel a stir in her heart.
Cultivation emphasizes enlightenment.
And enlightenment is a gradual process.
The speed of enlightenment depends on one’s talent.
This is the so-called comprehension.
It is said that the Yin-Yang school’s techniques are mysterious and extremely hard to cultivate.
Actually, this is true.
Back then, Fei Yan spent three years just comprehending the “Dragon’s Aura” from the heavens and the earth.
It should be noted that she was known as a prodigy of Yin-Yang techniques, a talent seen once in a hundred years.
One can imagine how difficult it is for others to cultivate Yin-Yang techniques.
Take for example Jing Ni.
It took her nearly four years to comprehend sword energy.
She swung countless swords before finally grasping this concept of sword energy.
This is a process of creating something from nothing.
As the saying goes, from one to a hundred is easy, but from zero to one is hard.
To comprehend something that has never been mastered before, only those who have experienced it will understand its difficulty.
Yan Lingji was completely stunned.
She looked at Li Mo foolishly and, after stifling for a while, asked, “Learning on the spot?”
Bai Xianwu wouldn’t wait for Li Mo to comprehend for three to five years.
At most, she would react within a few breaths.
At that time, the three of them couldn’t resist this monster’s attack!
Fei Yan was also full of incredulity.
If someone could comprehend a brand-new ability within a few breaths, such a talent couldn’t even be described as monstrous.
Despite thinking it impossible,
She chose blind trust anyway!
From a distance, Bai Xianwu stared at Li Mo, puzzled about what he was up to.
She dared not act rashly.
This man was deceitful and had already tricked her twice tonight.
She worried Li Mo was again creating a diversion.
Suddenly,
another flash of lightning streaked across the sky.
Thunder rumbled deafeningly, accompanied by the lightning.
Instantly, the dissipating lightning molecules grew dense once more.
Li Mo’s body shook.
Crack.
A faint sound came from his body.
Yan Lingji glanced around with her big eyes.
“What was that sound?”
Crack!
As soon as she spoke, the sound came again, clearer than before.
Simultaneously, Li Mo finally made a move.
He took a deep breath, as if trying to suck the air dry.
“How is he, husband?”
There was a hint of nervousness in Fei Yan’s voice.
“Phew~”
Li Mo let out a long breath.
He calmly said, “It’s done.”
Fei Yan: “!”
Yan Lingji: “?”
Mo Yu Qilin: “??”
Everyone was shocked!
Yan Lingji couldn’t help but ask, “What’s done?”
Li Mo slowly lifted his hands, placing his palms together in front.
After a moment, he suddenly twisted and rubbed them forcefully.
With a “snap,”
a blue spark exploded from his palms!
Soon, crackling sounds followed.
The sparks multiplied, covering his body in the blink of an eye.
His robes billowed from the energy!
His hair stood on end!
He was enveloped in lightning!
Snakes of blue electricity coiled around him.
Yan Lingji’s eyes widened increasingly.
Her eyeballs almost popped out!
“W-where did you get this lightning?”
Li Mo, like a thunder god, stood majestic within the lightning.
“The power of science, static electricity.”
Not just Yan Lingji, Fei Yan didn’t understand either.
“What science?”
Li Mo turned to them with a slight smile: “Science.”
“Step back, this is the moment to witness a miracle!”
He raised his hand to stop Yan Lingji’s questions.
Right now, he needed to deal with that dead woman Bai Xianwu!
Bai Xianwu’s eyes faltered, her brows furrowed tightly.
“Yin’s power, the might of lightning, how is this possible!”
“How could he comprehend a brand-new skill so quickly!”
“He was just standing there, how could he suddenly master this lightning technique?”
Such talent, even looking back thousands of years, was unheard of.
Bai Xianwu’s heart trembled.
What kind of foe was she facing?
Am I the monster, or is he?
Li Mo forcefully stomped his right leg on the ground, propelling himself into the air.
A dazzling blue light rose in the night.
As if it were a blue longsword, it tore a slit in the night shrouded like black cloth.
Further away, a young woman in a pink palace dress was sneaking toward the place where Li Mo once lived.
Hongliang, who had overslept, was panting heavily.
Her little face was flushed with exhaustion.
She finally couldn’t help but stop.
She plopped down on the ground, hugging the two burdens on her chest and breathing heavily.
At this moment, she finally understood that growing up wasn’t necessarily a good thing!
But before she could catch a breath, a blue light suddenly illuminated the night sky.
Hongliang was stunned for a moment and then raised her head.
A thing that looked like a blue meteor shot into the sky, beautiful and magnificent!
“Wow! A shooting star?”
“No, what shooting star flies upward?”
Hongliang opened her small mouth wide, her eyes sparkling.
Then she wondered, “If it’s not a shooting star, what is it?”
She looked at the direction where the light was shining, it was the same place as Li Mo’s residence.
Hongliang immediately became excited.
“Why not go and see for myself? I’m so clever!”
After saying that, she stood up, patted her little butt, and ran over.
Li Mo was covered in lightning, crackling loudly.
He descended from the sky like a cannonball!
Faster than before, he was in front of Bai Xianwu in an instant!
The lightning surrounded him like a shadow, his hair flying, and his robe fluttering.
As if the Thunder God had descended to the mortal realm!
Bai Xianwu’s face was full of solemnity, feeling unprecedented pressure.
The double swords in her hand slashed through the air.
Her tiny foot shattered the green slate below and she leaped up.
She charged at Li Mo with her swords!
Boom!
The two collided in mid-air.
The immense energy shattered houses within a hundred meters.
A tree as thick as a man was snapped in half by the shockwave.
Fei Yan reacted quickly, forming a hand seal at her fingertip, and a light screen appeared in front of them.
This protected the three of them from the impact.
The blue lightning invaded Bai Xianwu’s body through the double swords.
She only felt a paralysis, her whole body lost control at that moment.
The extreme yang energy contained in the lightning was like sharp knives, rampaging within her body.
After the paralysis disappeared, what followed was an excruciating pain, as if her body was being torn apart!
This extreme yang energy destroyed her extreme yin trait, making her feel unprecedented pain.
“Ah!”
Bai Xianwu finally couldn’t bear it.
Her hair flew wildly, and she roared up at the sky with a contorted face.
Li Mo controlled the thunder and his body was several times lighter than before.
His toes tapped on Bai Xianwu’s long sword, his whole body soared several meters higher.
He kicked down at her upturned face.
Bai Xianwu’s eyes almost popped out, and she controlled her numb arm, swinging her double swords to strike at Li Mo’s lightning-charged foot.
Li Mo flipped in the air, his figure swayed, and appeared behind Bai Xianwu.
Bai Xianwu wanted to withdraw her swords and change her move.
But she suddenly felt a paralysis at her waist.
Li Mo, bathed in thunder, moved incredibly fast.
Before she could swing her double swords, he punched her in the lower back.
With a rip, the lightning on his fist penetrated Bai Xianwu’s belly, shredding the cloth at her lower abdomen.
Faintly, you could see a few indistinct abs.
Within two moves, Bai Xianwu was completely restrained.
Before, she could fight Li Mo to a draw.
But now, his newly comprehended thunder technique perfectly restrained her.
Bai Xianwu’s biggest advantage was feeling no pain and being unkillable.
But the extreme yang energy in the lightning caused her unprecedented harm when it entered her body.
Her extreme yin constitution was being destroyed, and the yin energy in her body melted like snow in the sun when it touched the lightning.
“Fei Yan!”
Li Mo struck Bai Xianwu to the ground with his palm.
He called out at the same time.
Fei Yan understood his intention immediately, her mind in sync with his.
Her hands moved in front of her, quickly gathering a “Dragon’s Breath.”
With a few hand signs, the “Dragon’s Traveling Qi” transformed into long, thin golden needles.
They shot towards Bai Xianwu’s back.
The half-foot-long needles all penetrated her body, sealing several major acupoints on her back.
“Ah! You’re courting death!”
Bai Xianwu screamed in pain and turned around with a cold shout.
Fei Yan ignored her threat, moved her hands again, and several more long needles formed by “Dragon’s Traveling Qi” pierced towards Bai Xianwu’s major acupoints!
As long as these 108 acupoints were sealed with this most Yang energy, she would be completely immobilized.
Li Mo’s earlier shout to Fei Yan had meant exactly this.
Capture her alive!
