Chapter 21 Ultimate Compression: The Concept of Light Particles
However, Ye Feng was well aware of the weakness of this move.
It's passable in close combat, but once it's unleashed, a large amount of energy dissipates during flight, greatly reducing its power.
Let alone a Soul Master of the same level, even a quick-reacting, agility-type Soul Master could easily dodge it; it's not a fixed Soul Skill.
Ye Feng sat up in bed, his expression serious, and raised his hands.
Two streams of pure light energy surged from his palms, each materializing into a half-meter-long triangular light blade.
Maintaining two light blades simultaneously caused an immediate surge in the consumption of soul power.
Just the materialization alone, plus the estimated cost of a single slash, would drain about one-tenth of the soul power from the body.
However, its power was far from achieving the effect he desired.
High consumption, low return.
That's a completely useless skill.
Was I wrong? Is the Light and Shadow Martial Soul really that weak in the early stages?
No.
wrong.
Ye Feng looked at the two light blades in his hands. Although the light was dazzling, the energy flow inside them seemed somewhat loose and chaotic.
What if... what if I could compress this soul power, this energy of light, to its limit?
hiss!
A crazy idea, like a lightning bolt piercing the night, instantly illuminated my entire mind.
Ye Feng immediately perked up!
Yes, compression!
But it's not simple compression!
The physics knowledge I had encountered in my previous life surged forth at this moment.
Ordinary soul skills are like splashing a bucket of water; they cover a large area, but the impact is dispersed.
What he had to do was turn this basin of water into a jet of water shot out by a high-pressure water gun!
How to achieve?
Split the attribute soul power!
Breaking down light particles into "nanoscale" particles!
Once the idea took hold, it could no longer be contained.
Each particle of light is solidified from a wisp of the purest, unadulterated spiritual power of light.
The soul power of a normal century-old soul skill is in a "flowing" form, with the energy dissipating throughout the attack process, greatly weakening its power.
However, his light particle state can highly condense soul power into points!
Then, these light particles are recombined!
For example, these light particles can be condensed into light filaments as thin as a hair.
Let's assume that an ordinary light blade is formed by one hundred light filaments.
That way, each light filament can be made up of hundreds of light particles closely bonded together!
In this way, the density of soul power inside the light filament will directly double, or even more!
More importantly, his light attribute naturally possesses a purity that is unmatched by other attributes!
Fire can explode, water can flow, wind can dissipate, and earth can crumble, but light can be infinitely condensed!
This is his unique advantage!
Ye Feng became more and more excited as he thought about it, and even couldn't help but start calculating.
In the Soul Beast Encyclopedia, the Soul Skill "Wind Blade" of a hundred-year-old Wind Wolf has a Soul Power density that is about 1.5 times that of ordinary Soul Power.
A single filament can achieve a density of 1 times!
Although the power of a single filament of light seems insignificant, what if ten filaments of light were combined to form a blade of light?
Its power is absolutely comparable to an ordinary century-old soul skill!
What if it's twenty? Forty? Eighty?
Moreover, the power of this self-created soul skill will continuously increase as his own soul power grows!
The stronger one's soul power and mental strength, the more light particles one can condense, and the more resilient and denser the light threads one can weave!
This is a true growth-type soul skill!
Thinking of this, Ye Feng almost wanted to applaud his own brilliant idea.
Creating your own soul skills doesn't necessarily mean pursuing flashy effects. The essence lies in the deep development, perception, and conception of your own martial soul's characteristics.
Just like the Clear Sky Sect's ultimate technique "Ring Explosion," isn't its principle to concentrate all the power contained in the soul ring onto the hammer in an instant, unleashing destructive power beyond the limit?
This is essentially the same as his "light particle theory"!
Both involve concentrating dispersed forces in a highly concentrated manner to achieve exponential growth in power!
Just do it!
Ye Feng sat cross-legged, clearing his mind of all distractions and focusing all his attention on his right palm.
He slowly extended his right hand, and a soft golden light appeared.
The first step is to break it down.
He mobilized his mental energy and carefully probed into the ball of light energy, trying to break it down from a "whole" into individual "particles".
This process was a hundred times more difficult than imagined.
Mental power is like an invisible hand, requiring extremely precise manipulation.
Sweat seeped from his forehead and slid down his cheeks.
After an unknown amount of time, the shape of the light began to undergo subtle changes.
It was no longer a uniform mass, but had transformed into a nebula-like structure composed of countless tiny points of light.
It worked!
Ye Feng was overjoyed and immediately proceeded to the second step.
control!
Use your thoughts to guide those tiny energy particles, making them arrange and combine according to your ideas.
One, two, ten, one hundred...
Under his mental control, hundreds of light particles slowly merged together, eventually forming a golden light thread thinner than a strand of hair.
The filament of light hovered at the fingertip; though tiny, it exuded a chillingly sharp aura.
Become!
Ye Feng suppressed his inner elation and continued trying.
The second filament...
The third filament...
The fourth one...
The fifth one...
When the fifth filament condensed and floated alongside the first four, Ye Feng felt a sharp, needle-like pain in his brain.
Both mental strength and self-control have reached their limits.
He tried to condense the sixth one, but found that the light particles had become incredibly "heavy" and could no longer be manipulated at will.
"Click..."
With a soft sound, the five light filaments simultaneously disintegrated, turning back into countless points of light that vanished into the air.
"Huff... huff..."
Ye Feng was panting heavily, his whole body drenched in sweat as if he had just been pulled out of the water.
He had almost exhausted all his mental energy by merely condensing five strands of light.
Is this the limit?
Ye Feng was somewhat unwilling.
where is the problem?
Control!
It's because my method of controlling my mental energy is too crude.
Focusing solely on controlling one filament before moving on to the second is inefficient and mentally taxing.
You must learn to multitask!
A technique instantly sprang to mind from the depths of his memory—distraction control.
The secrets of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Of course, I can forget about mastering those top-tier secret techniques.
However, the existence of such a method indicates that there must be general versions circulating in the market that are less effective.
Even the most basic ability to multitask is a huge help to me right now!
Once you learn it, the efficiency of condensing light filaments can be increased exponentially!
Moreover, future combat methods will not only involve conjuring a light blade with one hand.
It's not your hands!
Two divine weapons, each formed from hundreds of strands of light, danced simultaneously in his hands, demanding an incredible level of control...
Tsk tsk.
Just thinking about it made Ye Feng's blood boil.
