When 'God' Decides To Start Over-Chapter 830 - 328: Jiaotu
"If I still need to run away when facing a locked Divine Position Demon Spirit, then my long journey as a Trial Taker could be considered wasted," Li Xiu said indifferently.
"How long have you been on this path?" Li Qingyi, hearing Li Xiu speak like this, found it both funny and exasperating.
In recent times, she had been quite close with the people from Courtyard Seven and had heard quite a bit about Li Xiu, knowing he hadn't been a Trial Taker for long.
Yet, from Li Xiu's tone, it seemed as if he had been training all his life.
Li Xiu stared at the Demon Spirit and said, "No matter the path, the time spent training is secondary. What truly determines the height of cultivation is understanding. Some people play the piano their entire lives and can only produce rigid rhythms, while some who have just learned can create deeply moving melodies. Cultivation does not rely on endurance but on the world within one's heart. In my heart lies my own world, and naturally, a single thought can lead to enlightenment."
Li Qingyi stared dumbfounded at Li Xiu. Such statements, teetering on arrogance, struck her as quite intriguing.
Though there was some truth to it, for those who truly understood, the statement seemed a bit naïve.
Comprehension is indeed important, but it's built on a certain foundation. Without establishing the basics, there's no discussion of enlightenment.
An E-level Trial Taker, no matter how deep their understanding, would meet their end when encountering a Super Spirit. It has nothing to do with how much they grasp, just that they simply lack enough accumulation.
Although Li Xiu's words seemed somewhat shallow, for some reason, Li Qingyi felt an inexplicable sense of security from listening to them.
"I know you're excellent, but some things can't be solved solely by comprehension. Your study time is insufficient, your accumulation lacking; no matter how much you understand, it's useless. Like practicing calligraphy, no amount of theoretical knowledge can make up for crooked horizontal and vertical strokes. True calligraphy masters must first learn the basics before they can create freely. Those who learn to run before they can walk are mostly frauds..." Li Qingyi initially intended to persuade Li Xiu to leave, but as she spoke, she rambled on.
Before she could finish, the smaller Ice Demon Spirits in the pit began to rise one by one, hundreds of them spewing forth terrifying Ice Breath like dragons, surging towards Li Qingyi like a tide.
Li Xiu and Li Qingyi's abilities were affected by the Light of Truth, but the Ice Demon Spirits were unaffected, and the Ice Breath rushed directly towards Li Qingyi.
Light Energy burst from Li Qingyi's body as she prepared to fight desperately.
Suddenly, she saw a flash of light before her eyes, and Li Xiu appeared in front of her, emanating red and blue light, with Demonic Light flickering around him.
"Learning is such a simple thing for me..." Facing the mountainous wave of Ice Breath, Li Xiu calmly said, extending his hands, letting red and blue light spiral forth.
Li Qingyi couldn't help but smile wryly seeing Li Xiu wanting to use his own strength to withstand the Ice Breath of so many Ice Demon Spirits.
Though Li Xiu employed Spirit Casting power, there were also Spirit Forging level Ice Demon Spirits among them. Even if Li Xiu's Spirit Casting was in its third form, it would still be hard to rival them, not to mention his Spirit Casting was something she witnessed forming, and it should still be in its first form. How could it compete against so many Spirit Forging level Ice Demon Spirits?
Even conceding that Li Xiu's Light Energy could withstand the combined attack of so many Ice Demon Spirits, under the Light of Truth from the Divine Position Demon Spirit, his Light Energy couldn't even be unleashed. It would only circle around, achieving nothing.
Li Qingyi felt Li Xiu's actions were overly impulsive, yet deep down, she didn't see him as reckless. She couldn't fathom a more reasonable explanation for his behavior.
Li Xiu stood before Li Qingyi, slicing his hand through the air, the red and blue lights arcing like a rainbow before him.
His power didn't strike the tsunami of Ice Breath but was diverted by the power of the Light of Truth to flow along a circular path. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
Watching his Light Energy diverting, Li Xiu was unfazed, seemingly in control, continuing to trace red and blue arcs with his hands.
The rainbow-like red and blue lights stood before the tsunami of Ice Breath. A bizarre scene unfolded.
The terrifying Ice Breath started swirling, drawn to the red and blue lights as if being diverted, the terrifying Ice Breath drawn away along the circular path, following the arc created by Li Xiu's Light Energy.
"How... how is this possible..." Li Qingyi's eyes widened, incredulous at the sight of the tall, robust figure before her.
"The forces that make you uncomfortable aren't necessarily bad. Sometimes, the powers that cause you the greatest troubles can become your strongest support," Li Xiu explained, referring, of course, to the Light of Truth from the Divine Position Demon Spirit.
The Divine Position Demon Spirit controlled the Light of Truth not to affect the Ice Demon Spirits, but the power of the Light of Truth influencing Li Xiu was something he leveraged.
Since the rule of the Light of Truth was that his Light Energy could only move in circles, he simply followed that rule, using his Light Energy to strike in arcs. The rule of the Light of Truth strengthened his arc-blowing power, turning it into his aid, forcefully using the spiraling force to divert the tsunami-like Ice Breath away.
