The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 614 - 122: Feel the Power of Science

What is the last thing a man wants to see?

Without a doubt, green clouds above his head.

However, there is also a saying about ascending to the sky among the green clouds.

Lin Yun looked at the green clouds above his head, unsure whether to consider this an auspicious sign or a bad omen, but he instinctively took a step back to avoid the area covered by the green clouds.

Not long after he moved away, a green rain began to fall.

The rain poured down in torrents, and the water level, which had dropped due to Lin Yun’s fire and previous efforts, began to rise again. Furthermore, the pond within the sealed area had completely turned green.

Initially, at least half of the water here was ordinary water. With Lin Yun’s intervention by using fire, the contamination of ordinary water by the green water had actually accelerated.

Fortunately, Lin Yun acted cautiously. He had Bai Jiaojiao and Wang Wanqiu divert and reroute the water ten miles away. Otherwise, they would have been unprepared for this rain, and it’s uncertain what danger they might have encountered.

By now, their efforts in diverting the water were almost accomplished, at least temporarily confining the green water to one place, but to say it was fully contained would still be premature.

What if it could really break through the dams?

Moreover, there was too much ordinary water contaminated by the green water, and its power had increased even more. Despite the absence of wind, huge waves suddenly rose on the surface as if trying to dislodge Lin Yun from the air above.

Lin Yun had no choice but to have Little Gold fly even higher, and he watched the water below with a grave expression.

It must be said, since crossing over to this world, this was the first time Lin Yun had faced such a significant setback. In the past, any problem he encountered could be resolved either by fire or by thunder, and if all else failed, a blood sacrifice to save his thigh was the last resort. But this time, he actually felt somewhat helpless. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Little Gold sensed Lin Yun’s heavy mood and offered some words of comfort, "This water is filled with the essence of the Dao. It’s normal for someone with your current cultivation level to be unable to handle such a powerful force. I believe that with your talent, you will eventually find a way."

"But I want to resolve it now."

"You can’t resolve it, you don’t have anything to counter the essence of the Dao."

The power of merit was indeed impressive, but it was not omnipotent. Against evil and sin-filled beings, the Merit Divine Fire and Merit Divine Thunder could definitely strike across realms. However, if the target was neither evil nor sinful, what Lin Yun produced would merely be a ball of fire and a thunderbolt.

They might be stronger than ordinary fire and thunder, but only marginally so.

Seeing Lin Yun seemingly unconvinced, Little Gold continued to try to dissuade him, "Among the Five Elements, water is the strongest. This Extreme Water cannot be countered by fire, wood, earth, or metal. You don’t need to be overly brave."

Although Lin Yun was now on the verge of breaking through to the Celestial Knowing Realm, he was still only in the Heart Guarding Realm. If he stubbornly clashed with this water without backing down, it might be fine if he succeeded, but if he failed, he would surely encounter inner demons. In such a state, not only would breaking through be impossible, but not regressing in cultivation level would be considered fortunate.

However, Little Gold’s advice had no effect. Lin Yun had already figured out the challenge, but instead of being discouraged, a smile appeared on his face.

"That rain just now made me understand what the Heavenly Dao is."

"???"

"The so-called Heavenly Dao is nothing more than rules, and what you call the essence of the Dao is merely an enhancement of those rules. As long as I apply the correct rules, there will always be a way."

Wang Wanqiu had just flown back to report to Lin Yun that the diversion was complete. From a distance, she saw Lin Yun’s confident smile, dazzling and thrilling, making her heart skip a beat.

"I don’t even have a heart, so what’s this feeling..."

Wang Wanqiu covered her chest in a panic and transformed into a stream of light, fleeing away.

Better not to report after all. Being with Lin Yun will give rise to a Heart Demon. I’m out of here.

While Wang Wanqiu saw Lin Yun’s charismatic side, Little Gold was feeling troubled. Why was Lin Yun insisting on confronting this Extreme Water when he used to be so cautious?

But since Lin Yun was determined, all Little Gold could do was ask, "What do you want to do?"

"I’ll need your help with this."

Little Gold: "?"

Are you overestimating me?

Although it was the Thunder of Origin and still retained some of the essence of Primordial Thunder, it was after all just a streak of thunderbolt. Moreover, having stayed in a divine artifact for too long, it was no longer the same thunder from before.

"What can I do?"

"Water can evaporate to become steam, rise up, meet cold air, condense, and transform back into water. That’s the law of nature. My fire can make water boil and evaporate, which also proves that, despite its fierceness, this green water still follows certain rules, that is, the properties of water."

Little Gold: "???"

What is he talking about? I don’t understand at all.

"Water punished becomes water vapor, it’s still water, so it can recycle back into water, but if we electrolyze it, it becomes hydrogen and oxygen gases. Do you understand what I’m saying now?"

Lin Yun gave Little Gold a chemistry lesson. Little Gold was totally confused. It only knew about spiritual energy, not about what is clean or positive energy.

But it didn’t matter if it didn’t understand; discharging electricity was what mattered.

"Prepare the most powerful electricity you can. Let’s show this arrogant body of water what science’s power is!"

Lin Yun looked at the turbulent green waves below, and began summoning thunderbolts.

Little Gold might not understand, but it knew how to discharge electricity.

With the Thunderclap Sword in his left hand and Qiaobian in his right, both hands surrounded by thunderbolts, Lin Yun became the man who commanded the thunder!

Turning Qiaobian into chains, Lin Yun cast them into the water. The green water could only drown living creatures but had no effect on objects. Exploiting Qiaobian, Lin Yun released a full-throttle, ten thousand volts.

The Golden Thunderbolt hit the water, sparking electric flashes. Soon, over tens of miles of the water area, fish and shrimp were flipping belly-up.

In the areas of ordinary water not contaminated by the green water, the surviving fish and shrimp were now facing devastation.

Electrocuting fish with thunderbolts, the effect was immediate.

To the lives he had easily slaughtered, Lin Yun could only offer an apologetic thought. I will eat you all, no waste will be made.

The thing that delighted Lin Yun the most was the bubbles near Qiaobian, bubbles that kept surging up. What did that indicate?

Gas was being produced, the electrolysis was successful.

At this moment, igniting a flame could verify whether it was a success, but Lin Yun remembered that after burning, hydrogen and oxygen would turn back into water, so he simply decided not to test it.

So the question arose, was this water imbued with the rhythm of the Dao still water, and could its Dao rhythm still exist?

No sooner had Lin Yun entertained this thought than he saw a wisp of azure energy gently rising.

Could this be the Dao rhythm?

After the electrolysis of Qing Shui, had the Dao rhythm inside also been extracted?

Lin Yun had a bold idea.

"Xiao Qing, take a breath for me!"

Just one breath, to try the flavor. Even if there were any issues, a small amount wouldn’t be lethal.

Upon hearing Lin Yun’s call, Xiao Qing swiftly got to work, coiling around inside Lin Yun’s Dantian. Sure enough, that wisp of azure energy drifted towards Lin Yun and was inhaled into his body.

This scene, once again, astonished Little Gold.

This indeed was Dao rhythm, but such a thing has always been comprehended, not directly consumed, right?

Like the Dao rhythm within his own body, to impart it to others, he could only demonstrate, and those who witness must comprehend it themselves. How much they comprehend depends on their aptitude, anyway Little Gold’s Dao rhythm wouldn’t be lessened.

But Lin Yun’s maneuver was truly unprecedented, at least Little Gold had never seen such a person before.

As the azure energy entered his body, Lin Yun too was invigorated. He quickly comprehended the Way of Water.

The highest good is like water, benefiting all things without contention.

Water, formless, ever-changing, nourishes silently, infiltrating everywhere...

Lin Yun clearly felt that his understanding of the Way of Water brought him a step closer to the Celestial Knowing Realm.

While comprehending the Dao, Little Gold did not slow down the output of Thunderbolt, and strands of azure Dao rhythm continuously separated from the water, being absorbed by Lin Yun.

With the flow cut off above and below, under the relentless electrolysis by Lin Yun, the water level began to slowly drop again, though not as quickly as it had when burned.

It was a war of attrition, with Lin Yun tirelessly consuming his own Spiritual Power to maintain the output of Thunderbolt. After not too long, Bai Jiaojiao also returned. She had completed the rerouting and built a very high dam. Returning to Lin Yun’s side, she saw him electrofishing.

Ah, this...

"Jiao Jiao, you’ve come at just the right time. Quickly, blow some wind."

A large amount of hydrogen and oxygen was being generated, and Lin Yun was also worried about an explosion. An explosion wouldn’t be terrible, but it would be a pity if his efforts were ruined. In this sense, Bai Jiaojiao’s arrival was perfectly timed.

Bai Jiaojiao didn’t understand the situation but still did as Lin Yun said, and when she opened her mouth to breathe out, a blast of wind followed.

As expected of a Dragon Maiden, such a tremendous breath!

And so, with one dragon blowing on the outside and another dragon inhaling on the inside, Lin Yun increased the output. The azure water visibly decreased in quantity.

By nightfall, Bai Jiaojiao, who had been blowing wind until she was bored, suddenly noticed a strange Dao rhythm emanating from Lin Yun’s body, unmistakably the aura of water.

But Lin Yun specialized in fire, so how did he suddenly enter the Dao with water?

Lin Yun stepped into the Celestial Knowing Realm, and Bai Jiaojiao wasn’t surprised. Unless Lin Yun reached the Defiant Heavenly Realm by tomorrow, she wouldn’t be shocked at all.

After the breakthrough, Lin Yun knew he could no longer assimilate any more Dao rhythm. In just a single day, the water within him reached the same level as his fire, even slightly surpassing it. Indeed, this Qing Shui was extraordinary.

However, if he couldn’t consume it, the Dao rhythm wouldn’t go to waste. After all, Xiao Qing was there!

With Lin Yun’s instruction, Xiao Qing flew out from his body, opened her mouth wide, and sucked in those azure Dao rhythms.

Bai Jiaojiao had long known about the little Green Dragon accompanying Lin Yun. Bai Jiaojiao wasn’t bothered by the many women around Lin Yun, but she always felt this Little Green Dragon posed a great threat.

Seeing the Little Green Dragon consuming the azure energy, Bai Jiaojiao felt challenged. She opened her mouth and also sucked some over.

Hmm, not a bad taste.

Being a water dragon herself, more Dao rhythm of water was beneficial for Bai Jiaojiao.

Thus, the two dragons began to compete for the food. At first, it was merely a matter of inhaling, with each relying on their own skill, but gradually, the two dragons seemed ready to tangle with each other.

"Behave and cultivate! No fighting allowed!"

"It’s obvious that I was here first!"

Xiao Qing protested, but Bai Jiaojiao was unyielding, saying, "That’s because I was doing something more important. Why should you get all the benefits?!"

"Master!"

Xiao Qing turned towards Lin Yun, obviously wanting him to make a decision.

"Master!"

Bai Jiaojiao too called out to Lin Yun in her charming way, something she only did at special times. When she spoke, Lin Yun jolted in response.

Well, he finally understood.

These two dragons weren’t competing for Dao rhythm, they were competing for his favor!
