At the start, Tang Tian thought that the dotted figure was some unique Law Thread, because the dotted figure was in the shape of a line as well, and was extremely similar to Law Threads. Tang Tian was extremely familiar with Law Threads, and the form of the dotted threads were truly similar to that of various Law Threads.
But very quickly, Tang Tian had another guess. He carefully thought about about the minute details that he captured, and found many new discoveries.
The mysterious dotted shape was truly identical to Law Threads, but the only difference was that it was like a reversed image. That's right, Tang Tian remembered the feeling clearly. Especially at the moment when the dotted line and the Law Thread had collided, the feeling became extremely obvious. If it were any ordinary men, they would definitely had felt confused, ~Where did the inverted image of the Law Thread come from?~
Tang Tian trusted his senses, his intuition was extremely sharp, and could usually grasp all the minute details that others would overlook, which had been proven through countless of battles.
~It isn't a misconception, what was it?~
Tang Tian pondered, he had not narrowed his train of thoughts. The Golden Holy Flame was in itself an illogical existence, where there were even a few abnormal things that were more normal than it.
The scene of the collision played over and over again in Tang Tian's mind, he concentrated his mind on it.
After persevering unremittingly, Tang Tian finally understood why he would think that the reflected image would be an illusory like Law Thread. The dotted line was truly a mysterious and in a form that was hard to describe. Although Law Thread were difficult to catch with the naked eyes, but the fact remained that they existed in between the spaces, and it coincidentally turned out that the image in the void was on the opposite, they existed within the space. In terms of carving stamps, Law Threads were the solid protruding lines, while the dotted law threads were like indented lines.
It was Tang Tian's first time encountering the "Indented lines" of Law Threads, and gasped in surprise.
~No wonder they will get destroyed upon colliding, they are like yin yang opposites, representing two extremes, which will naturally be annihilated upon collision.~ That was the reason why the Holy Flames would react like sharks that had caught the scent of blood when Tang Tian activated the God Armor Army, and would flock to him, while Ji Ze and the rest were not affected. That was because although Ji Ze and the rest used Laws, but they used the Laws to control the Energy. In other words, Ji Ze and the others Law Threads were enveloped with a layer of "Flesh", and that was energy. As for Tang Tian's God Armor, it had no energy wrapped around it, and was naked in the air, naturally, the Holy Flames would be attracted to him.
After clarifying it, Tang Tian felt that the Great Clan Elder was a true genius.
Tang Tian's arrangement of this idea and understanding of the Holy Flame was just separated by a thin layer of window paper. Now that the window paper had been torn through, Tang Tian could roughly guess the Great Clan Elder's plan.
~Projection!~
~The Great Clan Elder should have placed Law's Projections into the energy, these dotted figures are not real Laws, but emulated Laws projected in the energy. The projected Law and the pure radiant energy are actually able to form some kind of stable composition, it is truly a marvel. This Emulated Laws have difficulty forming in energy, but in the purest and most tyrannical Radiant Energy, it is actually able to stabilize.~
Tang Tian could imagine the joy the Great Clan Elder had basked in when he found the unique composition.
~Truly a genius!~ Tang Tian could not resist but praise once again.
After the Great Clan Elder had discovered the unique composition, he obviously did not end his own research.
The miraculous and stable composition contained an astonishing variation. The Emulated Laws that had stabilized inside the pure Radiant Energy started to produce an effect on the Radiant Energy itself. The originally tyrannical and pure Radiant Energy gradually hollowfied, the energy attributes started to weaken, and turned from just energy into a unique mix of energy and law. (TN: the author used the term , which in english means being hollowed, or hollowfication, and for those who watch the anime, Bleach, the hollowfication process was translated to this chinese term, thus I will use the term hollowfication or hollowfied.)
This unique form bestowed it unique characteristics.
At that moment, Tang Tian finally understood why the Great Clan Elder had placed his hopes on Spirit Generals.
In some sense, Spirit Generals were also some sort of mixed product, a unique state between life and death. To Spirit Generals, the Holy Flame was a great nourishment.
Tang Tian who understood this point was instantly vitalized.
The only obstruction that prevented Xiao Ran and the rest from absorbing the Holy Flames was the radiant attribute of the Holy Flames. The pure Radiant Energy was an extreme type of energy, and to spirit generals, it was equivalent to poison. Although the Radiant Energy in the Holy Flame had been hollowfied, and its tyrannical attribute had gone through a great change, there were still attributes of the Radiant Energy remnants left behind.
The Spirit Generals transformed in Temple were naturally extremely compatible with the attributes of the Radiant Energy, that was how they were able to absorb the Holy Flames without obstruction. But for Xiao Ran and the rest, absorbing the Holy Flames was extremely difficult, the Hollowfied Holy Flames might even harm them.
On the contrary, the Radiant Energy spewed out by the Holy Flame, after hollowfication, was much gentler, and far thinner than the Holy Flames itself, thus Xiao Ran and the rest were able to absorb them without getting injured, and can even nourish themselves.
But the amount of Hollowfied Radiant energy in the air for absorption was too little, while the Temple Spirit Generals were able to directly absorb the Holy Flames, Xiao Ran and the rest could only absorb the thin Hollowfied Radiant Energy, the speed in which both parties could get strengthened were heaven and earth apart. In that way, they were still in a difficult situation.
Tang Tian did not know what monsters would be produced after absorbing the sky full of Holy Flame, their numbers were truly too terrifying.
But, since he had clarified the principle, Tang Tian naturally believed he could find a solution.
The Great Clan Elder's originality was worthy of respect, but in terms of the utilization of Laws, the only one who could match with Tang Tian was Du Ke, who had gained enlightenment on the Law Domain. The difference was Du Ke relied on his understanding of Laws, while Tang Tian relied on his God Armor.
Regardless of what they relied on, winning was still the most important at such a time.
Tang Tian did not allow himself the habit of skiving.
His brain worked quickly, ~Xiao Ran and the rest are unable to bear the attributes of the Radiant energy in the Holy Flames, but I can.~ With his extremely strong physique, he was not afraid of the pure Radiant Energy, much less the hollowfied Radiant Energy. On this point, even Du Ke could not compare to him, that was how powerful his physique was.
~I can serve as the bridge, no, filter.~
~I will pass the Holy Flames through my body, and I can absorb the attributes of the Radiant energy left inside the Holy Flame, or keep them or dispel them, while the rest can be absorbed by Ah Xin and the rest.~
In truth, Tang Tian himself felt that the idea was a bit too brazen.
But in the life and death battlefield, if one did not even take risk, they could simply wait to die, as risk and rewards will always be directly proportional. Furthermore, to even be able to come up with an idea was already a positive thing. It was all thanks to Tang Tian that they could use such a method.
If he did not have a terrifyingly strong physique, he would truly be seeking death. And if he did not have the God Armor that gave him the strongest control over Laws, he would also be seeking death.
Although the method looked to be extremely risky, but in theory it held a great possibility of success. Of course, the Holy Flame saw Tang Tian's God Armor as an enemy, and he had to think of ideas to bypass that problem.
It had to be said, under pressure, a person's potential will be easily incited. Tang Tian realized that his mind was working faster than normal even without activating the God Armor.
******************
Xiao Yao trained in Light Laws, and although Light Laws and Radiant Laws were just a word apart, they were extremely different. Being helpless in the dangerous situation, he could only harden his skin and agree. (TN: Light laws is , pronounced guang zhi fa ze, while Radiant Laws is , guang ming fa ze.)
He stood at the side of the energy barrier with five other comrades behind him, all of them had stood in formation, with serious expressions on their faces.
"I'm starting." Xiao Yao took a deep breath, and reminded the comrades behind him.
With that, he extended his palm out of the energy barrier and closed his eyes, the vigorous Radiant Energy outside of the energy barrier made him scared witless. The concentration of the Radiant Energy was higher than his expectation, and was not a good thing to him.
As he was unfamiliar with the energy, the higher the amount, the more problems could surface, and the energy concentration outside had already reached a staggering level.
Xiao Yao forced himself to focus, and gradually used the power of his Laws.
A gentle white light aura lit up at his palm. The light grew visibly stronger, as beads of perspiration covered Xiao Yao's face, and very quickly, the light became the size of a grindstone. Everyone inside the building watched on anxiously, the large regiment of light contained an astronomical sum of energy, and if it exploded, the consequences was unthinkable.
Luckily, the explosion that everyone were worried about did not appear, the light seemed to melt, the white light aura flowed along the energy barrier that Ji Ze and the rest were sustaining, and it made the energy barrier look as though it had an additional layer of white membrane.
Very quickly, the white membrane covered half of the energy barrier, Ji Ze and the rest all revealed looks of joy, as long as the white membrane could cover the entire energy barrier, they would had formed a Radiant Energy Barrier.
Suddenly, Xiao Yao spat out blood, it was as though he was struck by a hammer, he flew backwards.
The comrades behind him were shocked, they subconsciously went to grab onto Xiao Yao, who had already fainted, with blood flowing down his mouth.
The white light membrane covering the energy barrier shattered
Everyone's expressions became extremely terrible, but right at that moment, they saw Tang Tian return, and everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"I have an idea, but it requires taking on some risks."
Upon entering the energy barrier, Tang Tian spoke up, at such a time, they no longer had time for an accurate explanation, every minute they wasted was a minute longer of danger.
Qian Hui replied without hesitation: "Alright!"
She had unconditional trust in Tang Tian, and firmly believed that Tang Tian would not joke in a life or death situation.
"Then start quickly, we don't have much time." Ah Xin spoke up directly.
At that moment, everyone placed all their trust on Tang Tian. Tang Tian was moved, but did not delay: "Ji Ze, persist a bit longer, I need a bit of time."
Ji Ze gritted his teeth and nodded his head: "Master, just do your thing!"
After giving out the orders, Tang Tian no longer spoke, and sat cross legged. He needed time to recover, he had exhausted a great deal of his strength, and he still required to use the God Armor, which could not be activated without physical strength.
Time slowly crawled by, but Tang Tian remained unmoved with his eyes closed.
Although it was extremely anxious time, Tang Tian remained at rest, and did not rush to begin. He knew that only by being in his perfect state would there be a chance of success, he could not force it, as it would only cause the situation to become worse.
Furthermore, he took the time to rest to formulate his train of thoughts and all the details carefully.
The initial plan that was in its embryonic form, was perfected.
