Chapter 160: Realization, Body of the Thunder Element!

Crack—!

The shard in Lin Mo's hand instantly shattered.

A streak of blue light drilled into the space between Lin Mo's eyebrows.

【The seemingly calm form of 'Thunder Strike' trembled violently upon contact with this extreme thunder power of the same origin.】

【'Thunder Strike' spread its arms wide, like a supreme Thunder Monarch, greedily devouring this violent energy without letting a single wisp of thunder power escape.】

【The form of 'Thunder Strike', originally woven from countless arcs of lightning, began to solidify at a speed visible to the naked eye at this very moment.】

Boom—!!!

A violent thunderous pressure radiated outward in a ring from Lin Mo as the center!

"Retreat!"

Xu Wenchang's face changed, and he shouted loudly.

All the students of Long Xu Ban instinctively stepped back several paces.

The next second,

notifications floated up on Lin Mo's panel.

【Congratulations! Under the perfect control of the skill 'Thunder Strike', you have achieved 'Perfect Absorption'!】

【Congratulations! You have unlocked the special skill—Thunder Element Body (Lv. 1)!】

【Thunder Element Body (Lv. 1): After activating the skill, all thunder-type skill effects increase by 30%, including but not limited to damage, range, duration, etc.】

【Absorbing more fragments can raise the level and effects of 'Thunder Element Body', until a Thunder Avatar is condensed.】

Crackle...

Lightning flickered around Lin Mo's body.

Lin Mo opened his eyes, and a flash of lightning vanished from his pupils.

At this moment.

Principal Guhe before him was staring fixedly at Lin Mo with an expression of looking at a monster.

He never expected that Lin Mo would actually absorb it directly right there on the spot!

Moreover, looking at Lin Mo's current appearance, and this thunderous pressure.

Could it be...

Could it be...

"Lin Mo, how is the absorption going?"

A rare note of urgency and tension crept into Guhe's voice.

Lin Mo looked at Guhe and paused for a moment.

Then he shrugged:

"Hahaha, Principal, luck was pretty good, I absorbed it perfectly."

"..."

Everyone fell silent.

They all knew that Lin Mo's first fire element fragment had been directly and perfectly absorbed.

Now the thunder element fragment is also directly and perfectly absorbed?

What kind of joke is this!

Zhang Daoyuan spoke up first: "Student Lin Mo, this... could you activate Thunder Element Body for us to see?"

Although Zhang Daoyuan had already sensed that thunderous pressure on Lin Mo.

His intuition told him that Lin Mo was most likely not lying.

But his ingrained common sense and worldview still made it impossible for him to believe this absurd fact.

Seeing the people around him, all with expressions eager to witness it.

Lin Mo found it somewhat amusing inside.

"It doesn't matter anyway; since you want to see, I'll treat everyone to a show for entertainment."

He took a deep breath.

The next second.

The smile on his face instantly vanished.

Boom—!!!

A thunderclap exploded with a deafening roar!

Blinding thunder light shot up from beneath Lin Mo's feet, piercing straight to the clouds!

"Retreat! Everyone retreat!"

Xu Wenchang roared.

The entire square, thousands of senior students who had not yet left, including the medical team and the sophomore students who had already regained consciousness, all turned to look in this direction.

Under the gaze of thousands of people in the entire venue.

Lin Mo's body was already completely wrapped in violent lightning.

Accompanied by the thunder dancing wildly across the sky.

A terrifying phantom beast shadow, entirely condensed from pure lightning, slowly rose up behind Lin Mo!

It was a... Thunder Qilin!

Its fierce dragon horns, its mighty body covered in lightning scales, and those beastly eyes burning with thunder-fire, disdainful of all things.

A soul-shaking sense of oppression roared forth.

At this moment, Lin Mo stood beneath the phantom shadow of the Thunder Qilin, like the Thunder God descending to earth, wielding heavenly punishment.

Domineering, wild, utterly overbearing!

"Holy… holy crap…"

Zhang Daoyuan stared at that thunder beast phantom, his entire body going completely numb.

Principal Guhe's eyes blazed with fanatical light:

"Not even level 30… a dual-element body!"

"Heaven bless our Dragon Nation! Heaven bless our Dragon Nation!!!"

……

On the viewing stands.

Several thousand seniors stared in shock toward Lin Mo's direction.

"Blinding my damn eyes—what the hell is that?"

"A thunder-element body! Holy shit… he absorbed it on the spot, and it was a perfect absorption?!"

"Your mom, you call this a freshman?!"

Dead center of the plaza.

Shen Jun, who had just woken up, was drawn by that dazzling thunder-light.

"This is… who is that?"

Shen Jun murmured.

Beside him, Zhou Kai, who had also just come to, replied: "Jun-ge… that's Lin Mo, and that's a thunder-element body, right?"

"A thunder-element body…"

Gu Qingge stared ahead, murmuring in despair:

"Demon King Lin Mo… does that mean… back in the Team Fuben, he hadn't used his full strength at all?"

Hearing this.

Shen Jun also came back to his senses and shook his head:

"No, it's obvious—he just comprehended it."

"The moment he got the reward, right in front of everyone, he absorbed it on the spot, and… achieved perfect absorption."

Hearing Shen Jun's words.

Zhou Kai and Gu Qingge first froze, then their pupils contracted violently.

Perfect absorption on the very first try?

Shen Jun let out a bitter laugh, nothing left in his eyes but deep helplessness and awe:

"Demon King Lin Mo—his strength is certainly terrifying, but what's even more terrifying is… this monster's strength has no upper limit."

"Losing to a monster like this… we… lost without injustice."

Gu Qingge and Zhou Kai fell completely silent.

Indeed.

Faced with a Great Demon King whose progress was absurdly fast, what right did they have to win?

……

On the other side.

Lin Mo retracted his thunder-light.

That terrifying Thunder Qilin phantom also gradually dissipated into the air.

Principal Guhe, tears streaming down his face:

"Good child! Good child! You truly are a blessing rarely seen in a hundred years for our Capital University, for our Dragon Nation!"

Xu Wenchang was also glowing with pride as he looked at Zhang Daoyuan:

"Hahahaha! Old Zhang, what do you say? Does my student deserve this shard or what!"

Zhang Daoyuan said with a bitter smile:

"He deserves it! More than deserves it! Xu Lao, what kind of monster did you pick up?!"

Just then.

A middle-aged man, clutching a tablet computer, came running over in a hurry.

"Teacher Xu! Teacher Xu!"

Xu Wenchang frowned, the smile fading from his face. "Old Ma? What happened? Why the panic?"

Old Ma gasped for breath, shoved the tablet in front of Xu Wenchang, and said through gritted teeth:

"Just now, the 'Oni-god Troupe' from Ying Nation took another of our team dungeon clear records."

"And… and those bastards even left a public message taunting us!"

Xu Wenchang immediately lowered his head to look at the tablet.

【Burial Dragon Snowfield (Hell difficulty), clearing team: Kanna Misutsuki, Yagyu Ken'ichi, Tiancao Zongyilang…】

【Clear time: 15 minutes 45 seconds】

15 minutes 45 seconds!

Nearly three minutes faster than the record Dragon Nation had previously held!

Xu Wenchang continued reading down.

A message written in pure Dragon Nation script laid bare, down to the last detail, the arrogance that ran in the bones of the Ying Nation people.

【We have heard that your nation's record stood unbroken for fifty years, so today we specially came to test it, only to find that we could trample it beneath our feet with a casual hand. Your nation's so-called limit record is truly fragile and dull.】
