Chapter 828: Tim’s Win
Unknown to Lin Wu, Tim had gained several new fans from this fight. And it had not even finished yet!
With the Demon Spine ape being knocked away, the Slim Arm ape followed behind in his steps. The father and son were quickly teleported by Lin Wu to the observation area and checked.
“At least these two are better than them… still, they will need treatment.” Lin Wu muttered to himself before healing the two as well.
~SKREEE~
Tim kept on fighting and defeated all the beasts one by one. A couple of minutes later the only ones that were still left in the arena were the Twin Lights Liger King and the Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape.
“Ha… ha… ha… the weasel is certainly on a different level…” The Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape said, his breath irregular.
“He is… HAA…” The Twin Lights Liger King replied while continuing his attacks.
~KIKIKIK!~
Tim dodged the Twin Lights Liger King’s light beams, having understood the trajectories by now. He was learning with each passing minute and was getting better and better.
“His rate of improvement is really high… he might not have a good level of intelligence but his battle instincts are next level… is this the power of a bloodline?” Lin Wu couldn’t help but wonder.
Tim weaved through the attacks of both the beasts while dealing his own attacks at the right moment. The Twin Lights Liger King had already developed several injuries all over his body.
Surprisingly though, the Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape was not as injured. Or rather, he didn’t have any surface level injuries and no bleeding either. His injuries were mostly from the impact and shock delivered to his body.
Then there was also the internal strain he endured and the meridians that were getting tired from using his high leveled skills.
Lin Wu of course, noticed this and was intrigued.
“He can actually endure without getting a single scratch? Just what is that skill?” Lin Wu was surprised.
He watched for a bit before asking the system to scan for it.
~DING~

SCAN: Completed
SKILL IDENTIFIED: Assigning temporary name
NAME ASSIGNED: Hard Light Lattice
INFO: According to the system’s analysis, Hard Light Lattice is a unique skill made by the Sky Bright Daoist. It uses Light elemental spirit Qi to make a lattice armor that can block attacks.
It has a very high damage threshold, but once broken, will not recover in a short time. It also uses up over half of the user’s spirit Qi to use. It is most effective against physical attacks but if they reach close to the limit of its damage threshold, the shock from the impacts will still affect the users internals.
Long use of Hard Light Lattice also strains the meridians and can cause self injuries if used for too long.
——
Seeing this information, Lin Wu was very intrigued.
“Hard Light Lattice, huh… seems rather unique indeed. Though it is a bit inferior to my own defenses, it seems as it cannot recover quickly.” Lin Wu muttered to himself.
Lin Wu’s crystalline body had a high durability and defense. Even if it cracked and broke, he could easily recover by using some vitality. Of course, if the damage reached his meridians, even he would be affected.
Thankfully, with his Cellular Manipulation innate skill, he could move his internal tissues to accommodate the meridians and move them around to avoid injuries.
Still, all this left Lin Wu wondering about why he couldn’t see this skill being used. Even radiation perception hadn’t show him right away.
‘Oh wait, if it’s light, then I should be able to see it using radiation perception and adjusting it. Maybe the wavelength is different,’ Lin Wu thought to himself.
Wanting to test it out, Lin Wu activated the skill and adjusted it finding his field of vision changing in colors.
“Oh! There it is… invisible in the visible spectrum…” Lin Wu muttered.
He could now see a layer on the Emeraldine Sky Light Monk Ape. It looked like there were several small plates, around a palm size joined together and forming into an armor. It wasn’t exactly the shape of the body, but acted more like an umbrella.
It was certainly a different method of defending that Lin Wu had seen.
‘Hmm… since I can use radiation manipulation and have the Taiji Celestial’s inheritance, I should technically be able to use it too, shouldn’t I?’ Lin Wu thought to himself.
He analyzed the skill as much as could, but was forced to stop when the skill shattered!
No sound was heard when it broke, but the Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape spat out blood.
~Sigh~
“Come over here.” Lin Wu teleported the beast out to his side as well.
Lin Wu checked the Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape for injuries and saw that other than some internal tears and bleeding, the rest of his body was fine. His spirit Qi was greatly depleted though and his meridians were strained.
While there wasn’t any damage to them, he will still need to rest for a few days to normalize his state.
“I’m fine… just tired.” The Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape said, after waking up.
“That you certainly are.” Lin Wu replied and looked back at the arena,
The Monk Ape had only been knocked out momentarily and was fine as soon as Lin Wu had given him some vitality. Now there was only the Twin Lights Liger King left battling Tim and was losing.
Till now the Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape had been acting as the tank and taking most of the blows, allowing the Twin lights liger King to continue his attacks non stop like a machine gun.
But without a Tank, a DPS can only go on for so long.
~KREEE~
Tim let out a final cry and rammed into the Twin Lights liger King, knocking him out cold!
“I TIM! WIN!”
