I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart

Chapter 248: I Long To Have The Cloud Whale

Depriving the gold warlord of his moves was very consuming. If the enemy used a powerful strike, Lin Yao would have consumed all the vital energy within him and could only have gained control of half of the strike.

Although he controlled half of the gold warlord’s move, and the opponent’s attack might fail or even backlash, this alone could not kill a gold warlord. This would only severely injure a gold warlord.

The enemy had merely been seriously injured, while Lin Yao had lost all his vital energy after this one move. There was no way to survive now that he no longer had heaven and earth perception.

‘It’s best to use Heaven-and-Human Oneness in a fight against someone of the same rank. If it is a fight beyond ranks, it’s better to be one level higher. It would be too challenging if one was two levels higher… No, this is not meant to be used in combat but for comprehending the rules during cultivation. Back then, I was too poor. All I could think of was making money by stepping on the Flowery Sect and building my reputation. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have wanted to use this move to fight against Lǚ Yang.’

At the time, Lin Yao had felt that the earlier he used the move, the earlier he could CD. After using it, he would be able to earn money to build schools, and he could then gain energy to improve himself.

He had not expected so many things to happen that night. Although he did not need to come over the next day, he did not wish to be a coward, so he had still turned up. Lǚ Yang had real abilities. If he did not wish to be insulted, he’d have to defeat Lǚ Yang. Therefore, he’d had no other choice but to use this move.

However, using this move in battle came with certain gains. At the very least, when he’d deprived Lǚ Yang of the control of the cloud whale, he had gained a lot of understanding related to the clouds and mist and understood how he could become a gold warlord.

The only problem came after the battle.

‘I used it by force, so I was not in harmony with heaven and earth. I felt terrible after ending the state of Heaven-and-Human Oneness.’

Right now, Lin Yao felt like his body and mind were hollowed out, and he did not want to move at all. It took an hour for him to recover slightly.

The uproar that Lin Yao had caused had calmed down slightly. Although it looked calm on the surface, the undercurrent was surging below, yet Lin Yao was not worried. The military had a very important position and status in China. Now that he had joined them, as long as he abided by the rules and was not inspected by them, Lin Yao would not have to worry about any hitches.

After composing himself, he watched with interest as the Flowery Sect continued the competition despite the previous defeat.

They indeed knew how to have fun. The first competition was an underwater race. A line was drawn on the river, and the Flowery Sect instructed the geniuses in swimsuits to swim underwater.

It was quite fun to swim underwater using various means. It was even more attractive when the swimmers were all handsome men and beautiful women. The second game was all about avoiding bullets.

Instead of going into the arena one after another, everyone who passed the first round would enter the arena, where bullets with paint would be shot from all sides inside, and the players would have to dodge them. Although the participants could not fight against each other, they could block the view of other participants while dodging the bullets.

Lin Yao and the onlookers cheered as the geniuses pitted themselves against each other and more and more participants were defeated during the competition.

While watching the game happily, he also looked at himself inwardly, checking his overall changes after becoming a warlord.

[Tree of Heaven Punishment: Gold Person, Talent 1 Good and Evil Distinguishment LV5, Talent 2 Heavenly Thunder LV3 (99%), Talent 3 Thunderbolt Mark]

(Dependent 1 Feathered Serpent Spirit, Beginner Silver)

[Bodhi Tree: Gold Person, Talent 1 Photogenic Memory, Talent 2 Light-Bulb Moment LV3, Talent 3 Heaven-and-Human Oneness]

Lin Yao’s body had not changed much after his advancement, but his skill proficiency had increased greatly. He was now in the stage of profound meaning of the Clear Mirror Sword-Drawing Technique, Deafening Thunder Roar, and Thunderbolt Sword-Drawing Technique.

He had achieved real success as far as the Phantom Clone Slash was concerned, and he was also at the beginner stage of the Leize Dragon God Meditation.

It seemed exaggerated to make so much progress in a short time. After all, it had only been less than a month since Lin Yao had advanced and planted the Bodhi Tree, and no matter how powerful this ability was, it was impossible to unleash its real power in less than a month.

However, if one thought about it carefully, it was normal. This was because Lin Yao’s abilities had not been enhanced all of a sudden.

The Clear Mirror Sword-Drawing Technique, the Deafening Thunder Roar, and the Thunderbolt Sword-Drawing Technique had been carefully chosen by Lin Yao. The reason he had chosen these combat skills was because they were related to light and thunder, and many combat skills were based mainly on light and thunder.

This was very important. Lin Yao had a deep understanding and strong foundation of light and thunder attributes because of the Heavenly Thunder Manipulation, Thunderbolt Mark, Armored Body Of Light, and Lord of Light talents.

This strong foundation made it easier for Lin Yao to learn light and thunder combat skills. In the past, Lin Yao had been obliged to learn and integrate them. After planting the Bodhi Tree and gaining the Light-Bulb Moment ability, it was much easier for him to integrate what he learned.

If one looked at it metaphorically, one’s understanding of the light and thunder attributes was like a general outline and formula, and the combat skills connected to them were derived from the general outline and formula.

After knowing the formula, one usually needed to do some calculations to get the answer. Therefore, in the past, Lin Yao used to answer the question according to the formula and find the connection between the two.

This was the method that Lin Yao and anyone else with talents used. As for those who did not have light and thunder talents and wanted to learn these combat skills, they were fumbling blindly without knowing the formula. This was very difficult for them.

Therefore, finding a fitting combat skill was very important.

Right now, because he had gained the Light-Bulb Moment ability, he was able to improve at a faster speed. According to the above analogy, he had installed a calculator while finding the formula.

Since he knew the formula and he had a calculator, it would naturally be very fast for him to comprehend the profound meaning.

By relying on past effort and hard work, Lin Yao quickly comprehended several profound meanings related to light and thunder. He even felt that it would be very easy to learn combat skills that focused on light and thunder in the future. To him, it was perfectly normal to reach the beginner level of a gold combat skill by looking through it once and achieve small progress after practicing 10 to 100 times.

Lin Yao had indeed thought of learning a few more combat skills. This time, instead of ordinary combat skills, he would be learning a king combat skill.

‘I will search to see if there are any king combat skills that suit me when I return. I don’t want to remain a silver warlord for long. I must prepare in advance.’

If someone heard what was on Lin Yao’s mind, they would definitely be scared to death. While some people were thinking hard about ways to advance their gold and silver combat skills to attain the acme of perfection and make them their own skills, Lin Yao already planned to practice king combat skills. King combat skills were meant to build one’s gold foundation and be used to help one advance to a gold warlord.

While he was wondering about the combat skills, he was also thinking about Lǚ Yang’s cloud whale. He was still very interested in that thing.

‘The condensed cloud whale should be the gold foundation chosen by Lǚ Yang. The power of the cloud whale is just normal to me, but I really want it.’

Lin Yao did not value the power of the cloud whale that turned the void into the deep sea to imprison everything. What he valued was the ability of the cloud whale to gather clouds and mist. In the natural world, thunderbolts mostly arose from clouds and mist. If he could gather many black clouds, the might of Lin Yao’s Heavenly Thunder would exceed one’s imagination, and its consumption would be reduced significantly.

‘There are many monsters that can gather clouds and mist, but the huge cloud whale is definitely the most powerful among them, and it is also the monster that can easily gather the most clouds and mist.’

With this thought in mind, he gradually made up his mind to get the cloud whale. Of course, since he had the sacred tree, he did not need to learn the combat skills of the cloud whale, and he could easily transform the sacred tree to cloud whale spirit essence, turning it into his dependent.

Lin Yao did not hesitate. He took out his special collection on the spot and searched for the cloud whale’s information in the military’s treasure interface.

He found it easily. Soon, the spirit essence of several cloud whales appeared before his eyes.

‘It is indeed the military. They even have cloud whale spirit essence.’
