Wuhun element periodic table, rubbing black hole in Douluo

Chapter 419 Taking drugs is a momentary pleasure, taking drugs all the time is an even greater pleasure
Lin You slowly walked out of Lan Yue Tower. The night breeze carried a slight chill.

He glanced back at the brightly lit top floor of the restaurant, a subtle, enigmatic smile playing on his lips.

Xu Tianran's overtures and attempts to win him over were exactly what he had expected.

This Crown Prince is indeed a qualified shrewd and capable leader. He knows how to assess the situation and is willing to invest heavily.

But how could he possibly hide his true intentions from her?
Sima Zhao's heart is well known to passers-by.

Moreover, Xu Tianran, don't you know how your father got the throne?
Without proper authority, he summoned an evil spirit master in the middle of the night to kill his brother's entire family, and then inherited the throne. Shouldn't he have considered that in the world of spirit masters, might makes right? And coincidentally, I not only have the truth here, but also He Caitou.

"Forget it, he's in the late stages of cancer, so let's just go along with him. Whatever he says is right. I'd better go see how advanced the cutting-edge technology has become."

Lin You did not return to his dormitory, but instead headed straight towards the elixir research base.

After dealing with Xu Tianran, I felt a little mentally exhausted, so it was a good time to replenish my "energy".

In the past six months, although he awakened the tungsten element in deep meditation and his mental strength underwent a qualitative change, the improvement of his soul power still cannot be separated from the assistance of elixirs.

For him, the elixirs of the Sun Moon Empire were the most efficient "experience packs".

Just as he reached the familiar domed building and was about to enter, an incomparably sharp aura suddenly came from his side and rear, undisguised, like a drawn sword aimed directly at his back.

Lin You paused, not even turning around, but instead a slight smile appeared on his lips.

He was very familiar with this aura.

He calmly turned around and looked in the direction from which the aura was coming.

Under the cover of night, a solitary figure stood there silently; it was Ji Juechen.

Half a year had passed, and Ji Juechen's aura had become even more refined. He was like a peerless divine weapon hidden in its sheath, exuding a sharpness that could cleave the sky at any moment, even when he stood still.

Ji Juechen's gaze fell on Lin You, then swept over the pill research base behind him, his brows furrowing almost imperceptibly.

He seemed somewhat puzzled as to why Lin You would come to a place like this.

In his view, true strength should rely on one's own arduous cultivation to hone skills and willpower; elixirs are merely unorthodox methods and may even corrupt one's foundation.

"You've gotten a lot stronger in the past six months."

Lin You spoke first, his tone relaxed, as if he were meeting an old friend again, "How about it, want to do some drugs together?"

His words were casual, yet they caused Ji Juechen's expression to change slightly.

"Drugs?"

Ji Juechen's voice was low, carrying a hint of confusion and a subtle sense of rejection.

He was obsessed with swordsmanship throughout his life, believing in the utmost sincerity in swordsmanship, and that only through persistent and arduous training could one reach the pinnacle.

He had always looked down on elixirs, even despising them.

In his eyes, those who rely on elixirs to improve their strength are nothing but fools who have taken shortcuts and will ultimately have a weak foundation and ruin their future.

Ke Linyou... how come he knows that too?

A strange sense of unease welled up in Ji Juechen's heart.

Although he was disappointed by his defeat to Lin You last time, he also found a new direction and was completely convinced of Lin You's strength and unique "momentum," regarding him as a lifelong rival.

He absolutely did not want such a worthy opponent to destroy his own strength by becoming addicted to elixirs.

"Lin You!" Ji Juechen's voice suddenly rose a few decibels, tinged with urgency, "You shouldn't do this! The power of pills is ultimately an external thing. Over-reliance on it will only erode your foundation and narrow your future path!"

He stepped forward, his eyes sharp as swords, staring intently at Lin You: "You are a worthy opponent, and I don't want to see you crippled because of it!"

Looking at Ji Juechen's anxious yet serious expression, Lin You couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

"Do you think I'm the kind of short-sighted person?" he countered.

Ji Juechen was taken aback upon hearing this, and subconsciously scratched his head.

Yes, Lin You's wisdom and vision demonstrate that he is by no means short-sighted.

His incredible theory of elements, and the profound understanding of power he demonstrated in the last battle, both prove this point.

So, is there some deeper meaning behind his actions?
Before Ji Juechen could think it through, Lin You changed the subject, a mocking smile on his face: "But you guessed right, I am of course a short-sighted person. Don't you think taking drugs is great? You can stuff handfuls into your mouth, it tastes better than food."

He even licked his lips, making a savoring expression, as if he were truly enjoying some unparalleled delicacy.

"you!"

Ji Juechen was indeed enraged by his appearance. His eyes instantly blazed with fighting spirit, and his sword intent surged. "Since you are so stubborn, then I will wake you up!"

With a flick of his wrist, he grasped the unfinished meteorite iron sword in his hand, its tip pointing diagonally at the ground, emanating an extremely refined sharpness.

Seeing this, Lin You's smile widened: "I'd be happy to oblige. Perfect timing, I'd also like to see how much you've improved in the last six months."

He gestured to the side, "This place is too small, how about we go to the combat zone?"

Ji Juechen didn't say much, he just nodded, and with a swift movement, he sped off like an arrow towards the dedicated combat zone inside the academy.

Lin You followed behind him at a leisurely pace.

A moment later, the two were standing in the center of a wide-open battleground.

Ji Juechen took a deep breath, and his aura surged once again. If half a year ago, his sword intent was as vast as a storm sweeping across the heavens and earth, then at this moment, this vast power had been completely contained, condensed into a single point, and transformed into that extremely dazzling cold star on the tip of his sword.

That single, cold star seemed capable of piercing through all defenses in the world, containing an indomitable will.

He was ready to make his move, waiting for Lin You to reveal even the slightest weakness.

However, Lin You did not make any preparations for defense or attack.

He simply stood there quietly, his gaze fixed intently on Ji Juechen, and then he took a step.

Step by step, she walked slowly but firmly toward Ji Juechen.

With each step he took, his aura grew stronger.

A strange scene happened.

Every time Lin You's foot landed, a hazy dark light would ripple around him, a light that was deep and solemn, as if it contained the weight of the earth.

Wherever he walked, clear and deep footprints seemed to be left on the hard alloy ground, as if each step carried immense force.

In Ji Juechen's perception, Lin You's figure underwent a tremendous change at this moment.

Last time, Lin You was like a vast, surging ocean, a gentle force that overcame all strength, which, with the force of "thousands of miles of tides," wore down his sharpest edge.

But right now, Lin You is like a majestic, continuous, and unchanging mountain range!
