Jun Li almost hesitated and stopped using his law of attraction, however, when he began to let up he realized that Lineir’s abilities had not actually let up whatsoever! Despite the fact that a sort of hazy mist had begun to steam off of Lineir’s skin he continued to gather Darkness Qi and cause the entire atmosphere around him to take on a smothered aura.

“This guy…he’s…meditating??”

Even Jun Li who had trained using unorthodox methods himself could not fathom that Lineir was actually absorbing Death Qi from the rain and simultaneously utilizing what appeared to be the full span of his abilities. Of course, Jun Li did not know that Lineir had actually spent a long period of time adjusting to the acid rain beforehand, after all why would anyone spend time in the swamp where there were few benefits?

“Hmph, he’s using me to grow more powerful. However, he’s still a formidable opponent even while distracting himself, I’ll play along and finish him fair and square when he’s done!”

Jun Li shrugged and continued to use his abilities. In the spirit of fair competition he was willing to allow Lineir to continue what he was doing.

“A secret…I can feel it…just a little bit more time!” Lineir was furiously meditating on insights while channeling Darkness Qi at the same time. He could sense that somewhere in this rain, in this Death Qi, there was something familiar!

For over three days and nights Jun Li and Lineir remained locked in a stalemate. If it had been any other opponent, they definitely would have broken Lineir’s reverie and taken advantage of his lack of focus! However, Jun Li was different. When he decided on something he never changed his mind. If he said that his opponent could meditate than meditate they would! Finally on the morning of the fourth day, a shocking development occurred.

Sssssssshhhhhwwwaaaaaaa!!

A hissing noise began to permeate the Sightless Plains as a great change came. All across, the Chosen under the acidic rain suddenly began to experience a terrifying aura which penetrated their very souls! Many of them quickly rotated the Qi in their Second Hearts and blocked it out but were still shaken internally and mentally.

“What the hell was that!”

“I feel…sad…”

“So heavy….”

“Why?”

“The Death Qi of this rain is not what it seems! Though the cycle of death produces the energy required to give its strange flesh eating abilities, it actually contains a trace of Madness! It is faint and has gradually faded over the course of time but somewhere long ago an expert definitely left behind his mark!” Lineir had realized this a moment ago and it was as if a thunderbolt had struck him. He realized how Madness could be used!

A second later Jun Li experienced a feeling he had never felt before! Whispers… they seemed to travel from the world outside directly to his mind! Though he furiously stimulated his Second Heart and quickly blocked out all external influence, the damage had been done.

“Why, what are these voices!”

For the first time in the fight he was…unnerved. Normally, techniques which affected the mind were ineffective on him. He was after all Jun Li, Chosen amongst Chosen! However, these whispers had insidiously penetrated his protections without his knowledge. Even though he was actively channeling his Qi, they continued to infest and whisper to him. Of course, these were the whispers of Madness!

“Hahaha, I get it now! The rain is not mere Death Qi but also contains Madness! Though I do not have any particular accomplishments in Death Qi, I can substitute my knowledge of Darkness and combine it with Madness instead! When combined with the Dao of Rain it can actually shroud an entire plain in the essence of Madness! It is as if Madness is a deadly toxin. Normally when released it quickly dissipates! However, when it is concentrated enough, you can surround it in a shell of an elemental Qi and encapsulate it. Whoever first created this technique must have been afflicted with Madness, but one day discovered this technique of turning it into a weapon! Moreover, this expert not only used Death Qi to preserve the Madness, but also used the Dao of Rain to spread it. Mmm it’s enough to even make me shudder, such a technique has only one purpose, to sow mass confusion and terror over as many people as possible!”

Lineir’s breakthrough left him exhilarated! He looked at Jun Li whose face was twitching seemingly resisting some sort of inner demon. He had long since stopped using his Laws of Attraction as distracted as he was! If Lineir wished, he could easily attack while Jun Li was distracted!
