AnalogHorror: Rule Kaidan 4016
Chapter 632 - 287 "Wisdom · Rising Dragon Fist_2

Seeing the faint blue steam rising from Li Huiyuan’s body and that faint tint of murderous intent, a sense of pressure surfaced in Lin Yi’s heart.

He tried to sense the flow of the "Primordial Pollution," but it was calm, showing no signs of activity.

"Can’t be, it’s malfunctioning?" Lin Yi was stunned for a moment. Isn’t this just setting me up for disaster?

As he saw Li Huiyuan’s leg whip casting a shadow in the lights of the Gymnastics Hall, getting closer and closer to his apical bone, eventually, the light around Lin Yi dimmed...

"Only enter this state when it’s almost in my face? Could ’High-Order Perception’ have a very limited range?"

There was no time to think about these not-so-crucial issues; Lin Yi emptied his mind, leaving his body to instinct, while he himself started to pay attention to the changes in the "Primordial Pollution" within his body...

However, he didn’t notice any particular changes when he suddenly felt his body act like a vortex, absorbing all the transparent and white particles that lingered in the air...

If space were a bedsheet, then at this moment, Lin Yi was like a gigantic hand, grabbing the bedsheet so that the once smooth sheet immediately wrinkled around him, and the "Primordial Pollution" flowed into that palm along those wrinkles!

In that instant, a massive amount of "Primordial Pollution" was transformed into sky-blue steam in the palm and surged into his body.

Just as Li Huiyuan’s leg whip was about to touch his apical bone, the sky-blue steam pulled each fiber of his muscles and bones like a slingshot, moving his whole body a step away!

In that moving moment, the slow-down effect dissipated, and Li Huiyuan’s leg whip fiercely struck the floor!

"Bang!"

A loud noise, and immediately Li Huiyuan let out a pitiful scream.

Lin Yi glanced over subconsciously and saw that after Li Huiyuan’s leg whip crashed onto the floor, the floor was intact, but the rebound had shattered her foot bones...

The girl just squatted there, hands covering her feet, tears streaming from the corners of her eyes uncontrollably...

"It hurts so much..."

She sucked in air sharply through her small mouth, in so much pain it seemed like the lines on her body were trembling like a cartoon character.

The after-effects of Lin Yi’s dodge had not kicked in yet, and feeling somewhat sympathetic, he took a step forward: "Li... Huihuizi, are you okay?"

"Woo woo woo..."

Li Huiyuan wept, half-squatting like an emoticon of "holding herself in grievance."

Lin Yi couldn’t bear it and wanted to comfort her more, but just then, his heart skipped a beat, and the light around him dimmed once again!

"High-Order Perception" triggered!

Slow-down effect occurred!

"Damn it!"

A chill ran down Lin Yi’s spine as he instantly realized what was happening!

But it was too late!

The previously squatting Li Huiyuan suddenly flashed a cunning smile, swiftly stood up, clenched her right fist, and unleashed a Rising Dragon Fist, while also letting out a spirited cry:

"Take this! Eat my fist!"

Once again, sky-blue steam erupted inside Lin Yi’s body, but just as this happened, the after-effect of the dodge kicked in, uncontrollable cracks appeared all over his body, and the cracks in his legs significantly restricted his acceleration, making him unable to completely avoid in time. He was struck right in the chest by Li Huiyuan’s Rising Dragon Fist!

"Pfft..."

Lin Yi was sent flying several meters high before landing on the ground, staggering a few steps backwards under the force of inertia, and finally plopped down onto his butt. He didn’t have the strength to get up and just lay there, looking at Li Huiyuan with a bitter smile before sprawling out on the ground.

Li Huiyuan triumphantly flashed a ’yeah’ sign at him and then, with concern, asked: "Finally hit you, huh, Lin Linzi... But you’re definitely not going to die from that, right?"

"Alright, alright... don’t ask when you know the answer."

"Not gonna die..." Lin Yi said with a look of utter defeat, sticking out his tongue, "but... it really hurts!"

Lin Yi realized his mistake.

When he was calculating the attack cycles during Li Huiyuan’s training, he failed to account for the resentment that was building up in that girl...

Speaking of which...

"She really is something... with such a tender age, where does she get that kind of spiteful temper...?"

Lin Yi helplessly complained before being overwhelmed by the endless pain from his internal injuries.

That’s when Li Huiyuan turned her gaze to her own foot, which had become limp from the shattered bones in her heel, her expression so calm it was unsettling.

She attempted to wiggle her toes, and after finding that her toes could barely move, she simply sat down and cheerfully said: "Might as well recover together... Lin Linzi."

Lin Yi was in no mood to care about whether Li Huiyuan was recovering or not; the fragmentation sensation from dodging side-effects combined with taking a full-blown Wisdom Rising Dragon Fist from Li Huiyuan, had compounded his injuries, causing his recovery progress to plummet by several percent...

If his injuries were 90 percent recovered before getting beaten and had fallen to 80 percent due to the dodge’s aftereffects, then now it was roughly between 65 to 70 percent.

It wasn’t that Li Huiyuan’s hit directly knocked down his recovery rate, but rather, every instance of "breaking defense" could potentially result in an absurd amount of damage.

And to his surprise, during Li Huiyuan’s sneak attack, he inadvertently induced a hint of the transformation pathways between ’Primordial Pollution’ and the sky-blue mist!

When ’Primordial Pollution’ entered his body, it first turned into white powder-like matter, then into sky-blue photons, and only after these photons merged into his body did he excrete sky-blue mist.

’Primordial Pollution’ doesn’t directly turn into sky-blue mist; it has to first go from transparent to white, and then to sky-blue!

This scene inevitably made Lin Yi recall the moment when Maozi first entered the Art Classroom and absorbed pollution from the murals for five people.

At that time, what emerged from the mural was white powder-like matter!

This led Lin Yi to two conclusions:

First, white powder-like matter was actually the manifestation of ’Primordial Pollution’ once substantiated.

Second, white powder-like matter can transform into either sky-blue breath or green breath, and after the transformed breath was absorbed by the original host, sky-blue mist or green fog would be excreted, and in turn, the exhaled breath would still have the blue or green effect while retaining a certain degree of contamination!

Therefore, theoretically, if he could master the transformation pathways of ’Primordial Pollution’, then he really could possess both the supernatural traits of the Sports Department and the Art Department!

He lay on the floor, beginning to feel the process of the sky-blue mist repairing his body...

Through ’Perception’, he could ’Cognize’ more clearly the sky-blue mist’s behavior inside and outside the body, rather than blindly assuming that it was "mist" internally.

What he could currently sense was a flow of sky-blue breath coursing through his body with his blood, entering into his flesh and blood, and then some fragmenting into countless photons scattered among his bones...

And then within the bones and flesh, started to emit particles that did not glow. These particles were expelled from his body, creating that mist-like substance.

The mist was not refuse, but because the body only needed the finest and purest abilities; it was like how ancient nobility tasted only the essence of a dish and disregarded the rest, but that didn’t mean what was discarded was useless.

Exactly because of that, the denser and darker the mist, the more it indicated the purity of the energy within the body.

Lin Yi tried to control the blue photons that were repairing his muscle fibers...

To his surprise, that cluster of photons actually fluctuated slightly.
