In the dark world, the spiritual puppet that had been sealed for hundreds of years had dark red demonic fire dancing on its dark shell. Together with the pieces of the Thunder Salamander that were still floating in midair behind the spiritual puppet, it was a nightmarish picture.
In front of Li Yao, the two little fellows were hugging each other and shuddering uncontrollably.
Creak. Creak. Creak. Li Yao turned the tracks and focused his attention on the two little fellows again.
Right now, he was very curious about the Cultivation arts of the two little fellows.
Sensing the cold eyes from the crimson crystal eyes, Han Te shuddered. He gritted his teeth and stood in front of the Coloured Glaze without any hesitation, struggling to say, "S-Senior …"
"Activate the arcs of lightning that you triggered when you were resisting the Thunder Salamander again," Li Yao said casually.
Han Te was slightly dazed. He looked at the Coloured Glaze in bewilderment. Encouraged by the girl, he slowly straightened his right arm and bellowed. Electric arcs leaked out of his pores and interweaved on his arm, forming long arcs that looked like sabers and swords.
"A rather delicate model of the spiritual and magnetic field!"
Li Yao's eyes shone. He had seen similar techniques to construct sabers and swords with the power of thunder on Despot, who was one of Elder Nether Spring's generals in the Blood Demon Sector.
Despot was a super warrior that Elder Nether Spring had carefully refined with almost a hundred crystals embedded in his body. He boasted the unparalleled capability of the Yuanying Realm.
The combat ability that the young man demonstrated just now was in the Refinement Stage at best. Naturally, he was incomparable to Despot. However, the models of the spiritual and magnetic fields that he constructed were much more delicate and boasted ten times more variations than Despot's.
Pondering for a moment, Li Yao said, "If my guess is correct, your capability used to be much higher than this, didn't it?"
Han Te was shocked. "S-Senior, how did you know that? Yes. Three years ago, I had already grasped the seventh level of the 'Lightning Strangle'. I was ten times stronger than I was today. Even if I were to run into a Thunder Lizard King, I would be able to resist it head-on!
"It's a pity that I haven't shown any obvious signs of mental derangement since three years ago. However, the veins and nerves on the right side of my body have been vaguely clogged. My capability has plummeted, and I'm almost a cripple now …"
"Senior!"
The Coloured Glaze clung to Han Te's shoulder and poked her head out. She mustered up her courage and said, "Since you can see my senior brother's strength in the past, is there any way you can help him? At that time, my senior brother was truly awesome. Not only was he the best expert of the young men in the Village of Peace, but nobody in the hundreds of square kilometers nearby was stronger than him. Many people said that he was a genius and that he would go to Manjusaka one day!
"In the end, he suffered the same misfortune as those geniuses of the past and became a 'fallen genius'. The past three years have been really tough. Senior, please help him!"
"The same misfortune as the fallen geniuses?"
Li Yao thought about the girl's words thoughtfully, but he left "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky" aside for now. "What? Are there a lot of 'fallen geniuses' like him in your place?"
"Too many."
Han Te opened his hands and pretended that he did not care at all. Biting his lips, he said, "It is not easy to survive in the Land of Sins. Radiation and ferocious animals are everywhere. Training resources are extremely scarce, too. It is impossible to train in peace. It is not surprising that all kinds of accidents happen.
"Just in the seven or eight villages within the hundreds of square kilometers, I've heard of more than twenty unlucky guys like me. They were all claimed to be geniuses in the past, but for some inexplicable reasons, their Cultivation plummeted. It's already good enough that I'm still alive. Some of them even suffered mental derangement, died on the spot, lost their minds, or mutated into terrifying monsters!" "That's right.
"Just now, you said that your master was an 'old grandpa from the sky', too," Li Yao said. "Then, your 'Lightning Strangle' was taught by him, too?"
"My master taught me, of course," Han Te said. "However, I also practiced some other arts in secret and integrated almost ten of them to enhance the power of the 'Lightning Strangle'. Otherwise, how could I have survived in the Land of Sins?"
"According to what you said just now, your master is ill, too," Li Yao said. "Is it serious?"
Han Te and Coloured Glaze looked at each other and nodded. "Yes, senior. My master is indeed suffering from a very serious disease. His Cultivation has plummeted a lot when he is not ill. When he is ill, his blood vessels are blocked, and his limbs are feeble. He is almost bedridden.
"We ventured deep into the heavily polluted radiation area because we wanted to find something valuable to trade in the places that have not been explored so that we could pay for my master's treatment."
"Got it."
The crystal camera on the front side of Li Yao's body suddenly blinked. Dozens of streaks of redness suddenly flowed out and condensed into the flashing red lines that shocked the two little fellows again. They pierced through the right side of Han Te's body like a storm.
Thousands of electric arcs burst out of the right side of Han Te's body and knocked him to the ground. He was rolling on the ground and screaming in excruciating pain, foaming at the mouth.
"Senior Brother!"
Coloured Glaze did not expect that Li Yao would kill her without any warning. She was so scared that she stood in front of Han Te without thinking and covered her head with her hands.
Li Yao immediately sensed that an invisible superstorm was quickly condensing inside her brain.
The girl shouted angrily, "Senior, in any case, it was us who woke you up. There's no reason for you to bite the hand that fed you!"
Li Yao smiled and said casually, "I don't know what other techniques your senior brother has been practicing other than the Lightning Strangle. However, the Cultivation art that he has been practicing seems to be designed to stimulate the mitochondria inside the cells of a human body and change the form of the mitochondria so that the energy of the mitochondria can be unleashed dozens if not hundreds of times.
"In the meantime, the Cultivation art has mutated part of the cells inside his body and evolved into an effect similar to that of 'electric eels'. With the cooperation of the mitochondria and the discharge cells, he can unleash arcs of lightning at will and assemble them into all kinds of attack forms.
"Theoretically speaking, it is indeed a rather domineering ultimate art that is more efficient and aggressive than the traditional way of making use of the spiritual energy of the thunder class. No wonder he was confident that he could compete with a Thunder Lizard King in his prime.
"The problem is that the Cultivation art has a serious shortcoming. When the structure of the mitochondria is changed and the mitochondria are stimulated repetitively, the mitochondria will release a substance similar to 'creatine'. However, the Cultivation art did not consider it, or rather, it was not able to solve the problem of the mitochondria's discharge of waste even though it did.
"Although the waste released by the seriously stimulated mitochondria during every training session is minimal, because there is no excretion channel, the waste is all piled up in the veins, nerves, and muscle fibers. After a long time, it naturally blocks all the channels in your senior brother's body that are used to circulate his spirit energy.
"It is like the cerebral thrombosis or pulmonary embolism of the ordinary people. When it is serious, it can be fatal instantly. Is it strange that his Cultivation plummets?"
The Coloured Glaze was stunned as she listened. Her mouth opened wider and wider.
Looking at Li Yao's shell that was riddled with holes and his unattractive appearance, the girl's eyes beamed with admiration. She was almost crying. "Senior …"
"Don't be hasty. Let me finish. Your senior brother can still be saved."
Li Yao said confidently and casually, "Although the 'Lightning Strangle' has a serious shortcoming, judging from your senior brother's young age, he can't have practiced it for many years. Also, didn't he say that he had practiced other random arts? The technique alone, which had a fatal flaw, was enough to block his veins, veins, and spiritual root. Together with the other messy, ridiculous arts, it was even worse, leading to his' acute attack 'this time.
"It is certainly not a good thing that his veins, nerves, and muscle fibers are all blocked at such a young age. However, it is exactly because he was blocked too early that the amount of waste discharged from his mitochondria was not high enough. Therefore, it is still possible to save him.
"Hey, little friend, how do you feel right now?"
Han Te had stopped roaring at some point and sat up in a trance. Looking at the thick, stinky liquids that looked like tar flowing out of the holes on his body that were pierced through by the red lines, his head went blank, and he laughed like an idiot.
The Coloured Glaze pushed him a few times, and he summoned his spiritual energy in silence again. After a 'hu' sound, blue electric arcs almost five meters tall dashed out of his palm and swam on the ceiling happily like countless fish, illuminating the entire underground space beautifully.
"My — my Cultivation seems to have recovered a little."
The young man stared at the ceiling in a daze. Perhaps because of the stimulation of the electric arcs, hot tears flowed out of his eyes. "Strength … My strength is gradually coming back!"
Clenching thousands of electric arcs in his palm, he waved his fist heavily and jumped to his feet in ecstasy.
However, he didn't expect that he couldn't control the powerful force for a while and hit the ceiling. With a loud bang, half of the ceiling collapsed. He grimaced in pain from the impact. He held his head and squatted on the ground, rubbing it hard.
"Senior brother!"
The Coloured Glaze could not help but laugh. She looked at Li Yao with eyes full of gratitude and stammered, "Senior, we — we really don't know what to say …"
"It's nothing."
Li Yao smiled casually. Looking at the young man squatting on the ground like a monkey, he remembered himself in the past.
That alone was worth a little effort. "Your senior brother's strength has always been hidden deep inside his body and has never been lost. It was just blocked by the waste discharged from his mitochondria. Now, I've helped him clear his limbs and veins temporarily and released some of the waste. The circulation of his spiritual energy has been restored, and his strength has naturally returned.
"However, there are too many waste blocked in his body. One clearing is far from enough. I estimate that it will take at least ten days to half a month to clear and guide the waste in his body every day.
