Chapter 189 Lilia's Epiphany

"Really? My attitude has always been good."

Lilia did not accept Locke's praise.

Are you kidding? She is the Lord of Death, how can she allow someone who has reached the state of perfection to judge her?
However, the upturned corners of his mouth could not be suppressed.

Soon, Lilia felt the fishing rod in her hand move slightly, and she lifted it up instantly, and caught a fish about a foot long.

"what?"

Reaching out to take the fish off her hook, Lilia was stunned for a moment.

If she remembered correctly, every time she came to Locke's water palace over the past tens of thousands of years, Locke was fishing.

However, she had never seen Locke catch a fish.

What is the principle?
Thinking of this, Lilia threw the fish in her hand back into the lake, then hung the bait and threw it back into the lake.

Holding her breath and concentrating, this time, Lilia radiated her soul power, following the fishing rod, fishing line, and bait into the lake, sensing all the movements underwater.

When a fish was about to take the bait, Lilia was startled and quickly lifted the fishing rod, scaring away the fish in front of the bait.

After opening her eyes and looking at Locke's fishing rod and fishing line that never swung, Lilia suddenly realized that fishing is more difficult when it comes to not catching fish than when it comes to catching fish.

No wonder Locke said that he had some understanding when he was fishing next to him.

If I could do what Locke did, fishing for tens of thousands of years without any fish taking the bait, I wouldn't be able to find the point of convergence among the six mysteries of the water law, but my application of the water law would definitely be improved by several levels.

Thinking of this, Lilia couldn't help but glare at Locke.

Even though he had such a way of cultivation, this fellow remained silent and wasted tens of thousands of years in that water palace.

Of course, Lilia also knew that cultivation was a very idealistic thing.

For many things, once you understand them, you understand them.

If you can't understand it, even if someone puts the correct answer in front of you, you still won't understand anything.

Just like himself, the perfect answer sheet of the water law is right in the water palace in front of him.

Every time she saw Locke's water palace, Lilia could feel the profoundness of the harmonious and unified water laws and gain some understanding.

But when I think about it carefully, there is no concrete gain.

In addition, Locke had never been shy about fishing since he first came to the Water Palace.

But it was not until now that I understood the mystery.

"Humph."

Lilia snorted coldly at Locke, but was too lazy to thank him. She began to use the fishing rod again to sense the situation in the lake.

Then, he tried to use his understanding of the mysteries of water laws to protect the bait in the fishing rod and prevent it from being eaten by the creatures in the lake.

Locke could vaguely see what Lilia was thinking through his soul vision.

But he didn't dare to explain.

If Lilia knew that he was not teaching her how to fish but was practicing illusion, Locke was afraid that Lilia would get angry and use the Lord God's clone to beat him up.

He didn't think that his small body could withstand a blow from a master, especially a master of rules.

At that moment, Locke sighed in his heart. The caterpillar on the fishhook began to sway slightly along with the influence of the swimming of the school of fish on the water, avoiding the attacks of the school of fish again and again.

After sensing the movement in the water on Locke's side, Lilia radiated her spiritual awareness around Locke's fishing hook.

Then, Lilia felt the rhythm of the water.

At that moment, in Lilia's eyes, the water in the lake seemed to have come alive. The swimming of the fish, the blowing of the wind, and the ripples of the water seemed to contain some mystery.

Locke's fishing line is the center of these ripples. Through the ripples generated by every tiny fluctuation, he controls the movement trajectories of all creatures in the entire lake.

It seems that those fish can swallow the bait on the hook as long as they open their mouths, but they don’t know that their own swimming trajectories have been controlled by the ripples. The ripples caused by their swimming will be fed back to the fishing line, causing the bait to shake slightly, allowing the bait to avoid the fish's predation by a millimeter every time.

At this moment, Lilia suddenly fell into enlightenment again.

"Tsk..."

Seeing this scene, Locke couldn't help but sigh.

Should we say, she is worthy of being Hongmeng’s biological daughter?

Not long after they met, Lilia had two sudden realizations in front of him.

Could it be that Lilia could really become the first perfect incarnation of the Lord God?
Such a thought suddenly flashed through Locke's mind, but was immediately abandoned by Locke.

Never mind her.

Even if Lilia really achieved perfection in the water element, it would not have much impact on herself.

……

"That's it, I understand!"

Lilia's enlightenment this time was obviously not as long as the last time.

After finishing her epiphany, Lilia held her fishing rod in her hand and swung it towards Locke. "Watch out!"

After a delicate cry, Lilia used the tricks she learned during this epiphany on Locke.

That’s right, this time, Lilia’s sudden realization was not that she had a new understanding of the water laws, but that she had made a huge leap in the application of the water laws.

With this sudden realization, she created her own "secret weapon" based on Locke's fishing skills.

Every god applies the mysteries of the laws differently, but only those moves that can increase one's strength by more than five times, or those moves that possess some kind of miraculous abilities, can be called "unique moves."

Just like Lei Sijing's "Amethyst Space", it is his own "unique skill".

After Linley learned it, the Black Stone Prison could increase Linley’s strength by a hundred times compared to a five-star demon, making him comparable to a seven-star demon.

After becoming a true Seven-Star Demon, this move allowed Linley to rival an Asura-level warrior.

Only after Lin Lei’s strength surpassed that of an average Shura did this trick gradually disappear from Lin Lei’s combat arena.

Now, the moves that Lilia created after her sudden realization were such "unique moves" that could greatly enhance her own strength when she was weak.

At this moment, she felt that if she were fighting against her previous self before her enlightenment, she could defeat her previous self in an instant with just this one move.

Therefore, Lilia wanted to see how far she was from Locke!

This fishing line drew an extremely mysterious trajectory in the air and rotated around Locke. Mysterious waves emanated from the fishing line, causing the space around Locke to be stirred by the fishing line and pressuring Locke who was surrounded by the fishing line.

"This move?"

Locke raised his brows slightly.

Locke felt that this move looked familiar.

Then Locke quickly remembered.

More than a thousand evolutions later, Lilia, who had already created the Netherworld Tavern, used a trick of using a fishing line to control space right in front of the protagonist Lin Lei, and instantly subdued a seven-star demon.

I think that even without my advice today, Lilia would be able to master such tricks in her future fishing career.

However, in terms of power, Locke felt that the moves Lilia had comprehended now were definitely several times stronger than the ones she used after more than a thousand evolutions.

Feeling the oppression of the space around him, Locke's mind moved, and in an instant, a chill emanated from his body.

“Bang, bang, bang, bang…”

Under this chill, the space stirred by Lilia's fishing line was instantly frozen, and even Lilia's fishing line was frozen into pieces of broken ice.

"Dengdengdengdeng..."

"This, what kind of power is this?"

After her trick was broken, Lilia looked at Locke in shock.

She didn't expect that even if she had comprehended a more powerful trick, she would still be unable to fight back against Locke.

Of course, what shocked Lilia even more was that she couldn't understand the power Locke used to crack her moves.

Locke is an expert in water element, and Lilia knows this.

Just now, when facing the attack of his own moves, Locke also used the power of water laws to break it.

But, is that level of coldness really something that can be achieved by the water laws?
It was as if the chill had frozen the entire space.

"Haha, this is naturally the power of the water law."

Glancing at Lilia, Locke said, "Why, you are allowed to comprehend the mystery of the water system's law stirring space, but I am not allowed to comprehend the mystery of the water system freezing space?"

After hearing Locke say this, Lilia also reacted.

Yes, Locke's understanding of the laws of water far exceeds his own.

And it was under Locke's guidance that he realized the power of stirring space with water ripples.

So, it is not difficult to understand that Locke, whose knowledge of the profound laws of water far exceeds his own, has realized the power to freeze space.

Locke's words were purely deceiving Lilia.

His coldness that could freeze the space did not all come from the laws of water.

It also contains a trace of the laws of space that Locke touched through the essence and blood of the main god of Xuanwu.

To be more precise, what Locke had displayed before was the mystery of "Water and Air".

It was precisely because of this that Lilia sensed that there seemed to be something wrong with Locke's move.

Without paying any more attention to Lilia, Locke had now immersed his mind back into the move that Lilia had used before.

Unlike herself who had been exposed to the laws of space, Lilia had no concept of the "laws of space" at all.

However, the tricks she had learned from her previous sudden enlightenment had actually reached the level of being able to use the "mystery of the water law" to leverage the fluctuations of the space law.

This move has great reference value even for Locke.

If Locke himself also comprehended this move, then Locke would have one more channel to comprehend the laws of space in the future!
