BXBX NOVEL Chapter 423 - I Am The Prophet Now?
The winds stirred within his hands as Lin Wu kept on spinning, not giving in to the resistance.
"You\'re gonna have to do a lot more if you want to stop me!" Lin Wu said as he started to let out more arcs of lighting from the cyclone.
They knew that lightning was more effective element here and thus they were focusing more on that. But even then, the problem was that it consumed far more spirit Qi than what wind attribute spirit Qi did.
This was mostly because Shirong\'s own Immortal Sky Shaker art was at the third stage, which was the Lightning attribute initiate. He had already gained a sufficient mastery over the wind attribute, but it was going to take him long to master the lightning.
Once he reached the fourth stage though, the consumption of both attributes would become the same for him. Right now, the only reason they were even able to fight back was because of the spirit Qi and vital energy Lin Wu had obtained from the Nascent Soul realm cultivators that they had killed in the process.
There were still several of them there and Lin Wu wanted to kill them, too. But now that the Dao Shell realm prophet had interfered, he could no longer attack the Nascent soul realm cultivators.
"Humph! You dare resist!" The child said as he saw Lin Wu trying to keep the Nascent soul realm followers trapped there.
The child waved his hands and pushed the cyclone to a different side.
~shua~
Lin Wu and Shirong were now forcefully knocked off the course and could not do much. Despite the constant attacks of the wind and lightning, there was nothing that could be done to the hands made out of dark energy.
By now Lin Wu had guessed the reason behind the man\'s resistance and even that of the other followers of the skull god.
"They are using the Dark attribute, aren\'t they? But it\'s not fully pure… it\'s like there is something mixed in it. Though them using one of the four heavenly attributes makes sense as to how they are able to suppress all others." Lin Wu muttered to himself.
Shirong also got some transmission in his mind about what it may be. But the way he got them was such that he thought he was the one who came to this conclusion.
"Dammit! Dark Attribute spirit Qi… Even if lightning is of the extreme yang, it can\'t do much against Darkness which is pure yang. Only a stronger intensity of the light element might be able to do anything against it.
Plus, it seems like this cultivator has already grasped some traces of Dao. No wonder his use of the Darkness Element is so different." Shirong stated upon seeing it all.
Lin Wu had already learned quite a lot about the twelve elements now and knew that there were many other elements as well that didn\'t fully match the twelve main elements. Such elements were called as the derivative elements and there was an almost endless amount of them in the world.
Even Ice was not considered to be a pure element and was designated as a derivative one. The hypothesis behind it was that while ice was technically water, the yin part of it had been increased and thus it became cold enough to become solid.
Derivative elements gave rise to different types of spirit qi\'s as well. They were different from the normal spirit Qi and elemental spirit Qi since they were born from the traces of Dao\'s themselves.
For example, the most common Sword Qi was also a type of spirit Qi, but it was born from the comprehension of sword Dao and thus contained traces of it. But that was not all that it had. Sword Qi even had origins in the metal element and was thus considered to be under it.
Thus, the combination of the metal element with the sword Dao resulted in the formation of the Sword Qi.
In the case of the Dao Shell realm cultivator here, Lin Wu was wondering if it really was just the darkness element or not. There was certain inconsistence in it which made him think that this might be a completely different element.
"System, can you search your data banks and see if this matches with any other derivative element?" Lin Wu ordered.
~Ding~

Seeing this, it instantly hit Lin Wu.
"Wait, a minute… can it really be?" Lin Wu felt a bit dumbfounded.
"No, no, it can\'t be. After all, I made all that up." Lin Wu said after thinking for a bit.
He couldn\'t help but look at the technique that the Child was using and the visions he had seen in the Taiji Celestial\'s tomb. He couldn\'t help but compare them with the cultivators who had been corrupted by the Shadow calamity.
This all happened much later after the Taiji Celestial had already been born. His past clones were also evolving and had managed to reach a point where they could corrupt cultivators without turning them into mindless beasts.
The cogs in Lin Wu\'s mind started to move and a timeline of possible invents started to form in his mind.
"The arrival of the guardian beasts… the shadow calamity\'s influence… suppression to take over the world… loss… return…" One by one, Lin Wu joined up the theories before a somewhat decent idea of what happened in his mind.
"What the fuck! Is he a prophet or am I one?"
