Chapter 618: Learning at an alarming speed: Creating a New Concept
That powerful attack did not carry Mu Ruxue's full strength, but it was still powerful enough to slam him hard against the ground several times, and his arms burned.
'...She only attacked using a portion of her strength, but it was already so strong. I have to create something just as powerful.' Tang Yin thought, determined to create an ultimate ability for his Fire Law.
He jumped towards Mu Ruxue quickly and unleashed a punch straight to her chest. She didn't dodge it; she defended it, causing all the power of that attack to dissolve instantly. Continue your journey on My Virtual Library Empire
Tang Yin threw several successive blows at her, but the fire in his blows dissolved in Mu Ruxue's hands.
He could only receive one more blow from her, which pushed him back and left him in pain.
It was as if his attacks were a slight mist that dispersed before the passing of Mu Ruxue's hand while her blows felt like mighty mountains.
Despite the difficulty, Tang Yin attacked her again, moving through the fire and using all his understanding of fire and his Law of Control in each attack.
Since he had understood the Law of Control to an important point, he had understood how to make it only have the most common effect of enhancing attacks, its basic effect. So, the Law of Control was not doing anything else right now.
He was using Divine Soul the most; Tang Yin had also learned to use it more perfectly, and it was of great use to him during a fight. It helped him understand the opponent's weaknesses and blind spots and helped him understand more of his power, so he was learning during combat.
With each strike he landed, his understanding of how he should fight increased, making each strike more effective than the last.
On the other hand, Tang Yin's mind was full of very different things, totally different from what his body was doing.
He was trying to find the most perfect way to create a skill.
Not everyone can create a skill; it requires a lot of preparation and time. But he believed he could do it in a short time.
The aura of wisdom of his Divine Soul increased his senses and his mind's ability to think at a higher speed. That made his thoughts more effective, and he could learn everything faster.
As he struck, the fire in his hand changed slightly. When he received Mu Ruxue's blows, the damage decreased.
Soon, Tang Yin struck a firm blow towards Mu Ruxue's blind spot, which he managed to hit and was not stopped by her hand.
*WOSH* The sound of fire igniting rang out as combustion of fire shot out from Mu Ruxue's body backward, right from the direction where Tang Yin had struck.
This stunned Mu Ruxue, and she felt intense pain where he had struck.
'What the hell is he creating?' Mu Ruxue thought in shock.
It was meaningless to have taken so much damage from a person who had sealed the cultivation. Besides, the combustion created in her body was not caused by something from her or her transformation.
Tang Yin's power had created it. No, maybe it wasn't that simple.
Possibly, what had created it was the union between Tang Yin's power and her power, as if he had controlled the power within her body.
Out of pain, Mu Ruxue punched Tang Yin away from her, slamming him to the ground.
'It hurts... It burns...' Tang Yin stood up again, sore in his side after receiving that blow from Mu Ruxue.
When he looked down at himself, he noticed that on his side was the shape of a palm, lit on fire.
'I knew it. Her power couldn't be just a transformation; there's something more.' Tang Yin stood up again and ran towards Mu Ruxue, reaching her side in a few seconds.
He swung both hands swiftly towards her in succession. His speed remained the same, but his power had increased several times. As he struck, Tang Yin kept staring into Mu Ruxue's eyes, and his mind kept trying to comprehend what he wanted to create.
It was becoming increasingly visible in his mind, and this visibility increased the explosions of fire in the fight.
'Letting myself be influenced by fire so that my anger increases its power is not the way of a controller.' Suddenly, Tang Yin began to think of something different.
'The influence of negative emotions will control me and prevent me from being a controller. There can be no such thing as a controller who allows himself to be controlled by emotions.'
Although his mind was thinking of something different, he was still unconsciously learning from this combat. When Mu Ruxue hit him, he quickly recovered and attacked her again.
However, his attack had a problem, and that was that he had no defense. But it is the best way to know what skill he wants to create or at least that's what he believes.
That's why he didn't care that his body was sore and his bones were broken; he continued to get up and fight her again and again.
'That's precisely why I can't let myself be controlled by emotions. But, is the only way to make fire more powerful, to let yourself be controlled by those emotions?'
'No, it should not be so. Fire is an element of nature, and although anger can increase its power, fire was not born out of anger.'
'This world of fire has proven that to me. Every explosion of fire is most powerful when combustion occurs.'
'So, I only need to create combustions. I just need to create a reaction between my power and the fire to make the blows more powerful. If I can create this concept in the world of fire, then I need to create combustions.'
'If I can create this concept in the fire, then I can create the ability I'm thinking of. I just need to... Create the concept.'
Tang Yin smiled slightly. Some of his strikes were accurate, just as he wanted, causing Tang Yin's power and Mu Ruxue's power to explode in an explosion that hurt her.
But other attacks didn't have that kind of power, proving that he still hadn't achieved what he wanted.
