Chapter 79: Thunder Light Snake
Yun Ye dashed into the heavy rain, disappearing into the white mist.
It felt like walking on flat ground; Yun Ye was completely skimming across the waves. This was a use of spirit energy that revival of Spiritual Roots naturally possessed, and other elements could learn it later on.
With this ability, Spiritual Law masters could engage in battles over water without fear.
Once he awakened his Spirit Sense, Yun Ye quickly adapted this technique into practical combat.
After plunging into the downpour, Yun Ye maintained the Eye of Invisible Light until his entire body was enveloped in Azure Flame, then he charged into the monster horde.
So far, Azure Flame was the most commonly used Extreme Flame.
Heart Fire could amplify his physical qualities many times over, but it was not effective against spiritual attacks.
Immortal Flame could burn anything, but burning was not instantaneous and was unsuitable for fierce battles.
As for the unique Immortal Flame, it could only burn one specific substance or energy.
If there was anything Yun Ye failed to notice, he would be in a completely defenseless state; even with Spirit Sense, he did not dare to take such risks.
Nether Fire was similar; it could not affect physical substances and only burned souls.
Physical matter passing through Nether Fire would be unaffected, making it a purely offensive type, which was indeed quite dangerous.
“Splash…”
The heavy rain poured down, and toxic substances mixed in the air caused Yun Ye to feel slightly dizzy, even with the filtration of Black Armor.
However, as Azure Flame burned, all the rain and air around him evaporated, and within him, a small portion of Heart Fire ignited. It directly replaced the oxygen cycle through energy transfer, preventing further deterioration.
“Thud! Thud! Thud!”
After moving deeper, the monsters on the water’s surface had been wiped out. A large number of monsters lurked at the bottom, attacking with various supernatural abilities, determined not to surface.
The meaning of Soul-less Ghost Fish was clear: they wanted to draw him in!
“Having intelligence is truly troublesome.”
Yun Ye wished to encounter another Shi Qing; zombies felt no fear of death, unlike the Soul-less Ghost Fish, which knew how to minimize losses and increase their chances of winning!
“Bang!”
Yun Ye fell into the water, and the boiling water vaporized, blocking his view. But with Spirit Sense and the Eye of Invisible Light, Yun Ye was completely unaffected and immediately began to attack.
Various monsters appeared, including the Armor Ghosts, Spotted Dragon Crocodiles, and Frost Water Frogs he had seen before, as well as many monsters he had only read about in books.
There was even a high-level monster with extreme threat potential.
Initially, Yun Ye hadn’t noticed it; from a spiritual perspective, it seemed like just another ordinary monster.
But as Yun Ye hacked through numerous monsters, blood clouds obstructed his line of sight, and the White Mist covered the area.
Suddenly, that high-level monster struck, unleashing a burst of thunder light that pierced the water and enveloped Yun Ye completely.
In that instant, Yun Ye sensed the attack through his Spirit Sense, but there was no time to react before getting hit directly.
The thunder light clashed with Azure Flame, resulting in a powerful explosion that left Yun Ye dazed.
At the same time, numerous stone spear and water blade attacks came rushing in, quickly wearing down his protective Azure Flame.
“To think there’s a high-level monster of the Thunder Element as well! It’s truly dangerous to tread here without caution. If someone else were here, that single strike would be enough to be fatal!”
Yun Ye’s Azure Flame power far exceeded that of the group of monsters, and their brief bombardment could not break his defense; they could only push him away, deeper into the murky waters.
Thus, Yun Ye finally saw the full form of his attacker.
It looked very much like a loach, a high-level monster with long whiskers. Its body was not large, with a diameter of only five or six centimeters, but it was over ten meters long, and its structure appeared rather strange.
“Thunder Light Snake!”
Yun Ye recognized it.
Monsters of the Thunder Element rarely appeared in Baishi Town, yet the Academy still taught about them.
So, it turns out that this creature was a product of the Crescent Moon Secret Realm?
This Thunder Light Snake was no ordinary foe; its first supernatural ability, the Thunder Light Beam, could easily pierce through ten-meter-thick rock layers.
Thanks to the power of the Thunder Element, even with insufficient Demonic Power, the Thunder Light Snake was still a high-level monster.
In the water, the power of the Thunder Beam was even stronger than on land, with a longer attack distance.
This was truly a tricky situation!
“I must first deal with the Thunder Light Snake. In this water, evading the Thunder Element is nearly impossible; I can only withstand it, and with constant explosions, my attack rhythm will be completely disrupted!”
Yun Ye’s body, covered in Azure Flame, transformed into Black Flame, entering the Bathing Fire Feather Coat state.
Moments later, fire lotuses rose from beneath his feet.
Song of the Flame Sword Dance!
He could not perform Song of the Flame Sword Dance with Azure Flame, as it could not explode or leave his body.
“Swish!”
Yun Ye began his assault.
In the water, his speed was still impressive; he sliced through the monsters standing in his way with the Azure Flame Spiritual Sword.
In a short time, seven or eight monsters lay dead.
The Thunder Light Snake had no intention of engaging in close combat; it quickly retreated, its speed comparable to lightning, even faster than Yun Ye using the Song of the Flame Sword Dance.
After creating distance, it unleashed a Thunder Beam to obstruct Yun Ye, who had to dodge, slowing his pace.
With Spirit Sense and the Eye of Invisible Light assisting him, Yun Ye could see the flow of the Thunder Light Snake’s Demonic Power and evade in advance.
Yet, when the Thunder Beam missed, it exploded into a mass of electrical currents. In this case, Yun Ye could do nothing; he was always caught in the explosion, making it hard to move.
In these waters, the Thunder Light Snake had the advantage of terrain, which explained why it was a top-tier high-level monster!
“This is tough. The Thunder Element is a merger of metal and water attributes; while it doesn’t counter fire attributes, it also isn’t countered. In the water, the Thunder Element is effectively in an amplified state, making it capable of countering fire attributes…”
Yun Ye felt a twitch at the corner of his mouth.
Dual fusion attributes are incredibly troublesome; even with various Extreme Flames, he still found it difficult.
Generally, if a Spiritual Law master didn’t have multiple Spiritual Roots, they wouldn’t even qualify for battle.
“In this situation, I can only break the stalemate with absolute speed, but using Extreme Flames underwater is challenging.”
Yun Ye could currently only rely on Heart Fire to turn the tide; with the speed of Heart Fire, the Thunder Light Snake wouldn’t escape.
However, his peripheral vision glanced at the other high-level monsters surrounding him.
Yun Ye’s lips twitched; many of the monsters had strange abilities, and if he let his guard down, he could die in an instant.
“Phew…”
“It looks like I can only use two types of Extreme Flames at once!”
Yun Ye took a deep breath; with Spirit Sense to assist him, using two types of Extreme Flames wouldn’t leave him flustered.
Using Extreme Flames to their fullest would only mean consuming spirit energy a bit faster; as long as he finished quickly, he wouldn’t deplete his lifespan.
“Heart Fire!”
“Azure Flame!”
He divided his spirit energy, enhancing two types of Extreme Flames; even with only half their power, they were still stronger than semi-pure flames.
Yun Ye’s physical qualities surged, and the water beneath his feet felt almost solid.
With a powerful push, he shot forward several dozen meters, slicing through numerous monsters, racing straight for the Thunder Light Snake.
“Crackle!”
The Thunder Light Snake couldn’t avoid the attack in time and had no choice but to unleash its full electrical power, turning the area into a field of blue light.
Yun Ye had already prepared; the surrounding waters quickly began to boil.
As the waves were generated by Demonic Power, these waters had a much higher boiling point than normal, so it wasn’t the case that Azure Flame caused an immediate vaporization across a range of dozens or even hundreds of meters. However, near Yun Ye, the water was bound to boil from close contact.
This somewhat hindered the electricity, allowing Yun Ye to break through the electric field, landing a strike on the Thunder Light Snake’s body.
A large piece of flesh from the Thunder Light Snake turned to charcoal under the invisible Azure Flame, causing it to roll around in pain in the water. A great deal of Demonic Power exploded into lightning, clearing the area once more, and Yun Ye was pushed back again.
