Chapter 482: Chapter 220: Invincible Force Field, the Grand Examination Begins
He had always subconsciously believed that he needed to completely reverse all the gravity flows inside an object to cause destruction.
But now he understood that he didn’t need to go that far at all!
’I don’t need to reverse all the gravity flows inside my enemy’s body. I just need to... twist a mark into a vital spot, like their heart or their brow, one that fits the gravity flow of my own weapon...’
’Hmm... or rather, a beacon.’
’As long as the beacon is planted, the weapon I control with gravity will be drawn to it and fly toward the target automatically!’
A hint of admiration finally appeared in Lan Yunxi’s eyes.
Not bad. This disciple of hers wasn’t just handsome; he was quick-witted too.
He understood with just a little prompting, saving her a lot of breath.
"You have the theory, now it’s time for practice."
Lan Yunxi took a few steps back, putting distance between herself and Lin Ye, and crooked a finger at him.
"Now, use me as your target and test what you just thought of."
"Forgive my offense, Master!"
Lin Ye didn’t hold back any longer, his Spiritual Power once again becoming highly focused.
This time, he no longer tried to shake Lan Yunxi’s full-body Gravity Field, which was as stable as a mountain.
Instead, he condensed all his Spiritual Power into an invisible, sharp needle and aimed it precisely at Lan Yunxi’s brow!
BZZT!
As expected, by targeting just one tiny point, the pressure was drastically reduced!
Lin Ye successfully reversed the gravity flow of a small cluster of fundamental units at Lan Yunxi’s brow, turning it into an inward-pulling vortex!
Next, Lin Ye also adjusted the internal gravity orientation of the Purple Crystal Rhombus he had condensed.
The instant he finished changing its orientation, the Purple Crystal Rhombus shot out like a bolt of purple-black lightning!
WHOOSH!
However, just as the rhombus was about to touch her skin, Lan Yunxi’s figure moved sideways like a phantom.
She dodged it!
But the Purple Crystal Rhombus, having missed its mark, carved an unnatural trajectory through the air that defied the laws of physics. It abruptly changed direction and once again chased after Lan Yunxi’s brow!
"Too slow! Faster!"
Lan Yunxi’s voice echoed in the training room, accompanied by her constantly flickering afterimages.
Lin Ye frantically pushed his Spiritual Power, constantly stimulating his Martial Arts Spirituality.
The gravity multiplier stacked up continuously, and the speed of the Purple Crystal Rhombus soared again and again!
Soon, he discovered that he could no longer track the rhombus’s trajectory at all.
He himself had even lost fine control over the rhombus.
But so what?
The rhombus seemed to have been given life and a mission. Like a venomous snake that had locked onto its prey, it latched onto Lan Yunxi and refused to let go!
There was only one thing Lin Ye had to do.
Abandon all technique.
And continue to brute-force a miracle!
The entire, massive training room was filled with nothing but countless blurry afterimages of Lan Yunxi and a streak of purple-black light that continuously warped through the air in pursuit!
No matter which corner Lan Yunxi blinked to, the streak of light would appear in the very next moment, sticking to her like a shadow!
Finally, Lan Yunxi’s figure came to a sudden halt.
And the Purple Crystal Rhombus, its speed having broken ten times the speed of sound and carrying a piercing shriek, slammed squarely into her brow!
Poof.
A soft sound.
The Purple Crystal Rhombus, powerful enough to easily pierce heavy armor, seemed to have hit a city wall the moment it touched Lan Yunxi’s skin.
Its own structure instantly collapsed, silently turning into a puff of fine purple powder that drifted down.
Lin Ye watched this scene, his pupils contracting.
’Is this... the physical toughness of the Celestial Human Realm?’
’Even when she stood still and let me hit her, I couldn’t even break her defense!’
This kind of gap could no longer be measured by mere numbers.
"Did you see that?"
Lan Yunxi wiped the bit of dust from her brow, her expression nonchalant.
"This Crystalization ability of yours might be able to cause effective damage when you’re attacking a Gang Condensation Realm or Divine Realm opponent."
"But when you face opponents above the Divine Realm, or those with tougher bodies and stronger energy defenses, its power is somewhat lacking."
"My advice is to use this Crystalization ability as a means of harassment and support. You can condense more purple crystal creations and win through numbers."
"But for your true trump card, the weapon you’ll control to harm your enemies, you still need to have a batch of high-quality flying shuttles or Flying Swords specially forged."
"I can use my connections to help you contact a few master blacksmiths, but you’ll have to figure out how to cover the cost of materials and forging yourself."
Lin Ye nodded. He really did need a stronger weapon.
Then he added, "Master, I use a spear. Besides the flying shuttles, I’d also like to ask a master to forge a new long spear for me."
"No problem, as long as you have enough money. You don’t have much right now, do you?"
Lin Ye felt a bit sheepish. "Well... I only have the 10 million Great Xia dollars in my account that I received after signing with Xinhuo..."
Lan Yunxi’s eyes widened. "Are you kidding me? I don’t know if you prefer flying shuttles or Flying Swords, but for a set of such weapons—not even talking about Spiritual Artifacts, just a set of decent quality—how could it possibly cost less than two or three hundred million?"
"As for the long spear, it’s about the same price."
"Don’t look at me like that. I don’t have any money either. The aliens I killed on the Star Domain Battlefield were all exchanged for military merits and contribution points. I haven’t had a use for money in a long time."
"Tsk... To be honest, it’s not like I couldn’t shamelessly buy it for you on credit, but the money has to be paid back eventually. I can’t be bothered to pay it back, so you’ll have to."
