Chapter 57 - 19 Even my dad has never scolded me!

Phase Wave, in the eyes of most people, is something hard to understand. Those who managed to cultivate the Elephant Phase Wave Skill mostly had achieved a Golden Core and had some insights into the Particle Wave Dual Form path. But for Wang Qi, the concept of Phase Wave was something he had thoroughly understood in his previous life. Phase Wave, called Material Wave or de Broglie Wave on Earth, was a concept proposed by the physicist Victor de Broglie. Based on the particle-wave duality and special relativity, he suggested: every macroscopic particle has a frequency or wavelength corresponding to its energy, and the particle-wave duality is also applicable to the macroscopic particle domain. The Phase Wave emitted from every gesture and movement of Wang Qi could essentially be regarded as a type of material. As a sword blade, this wave-like material was perfect because its sharpness neared the "ideal condition" described on Earth, which could not possibly be refined to create a thinner edge. Coupled with mana, this Wave Blade surpassed the Sword Qi of a Sword Cultivator, easily cutting through metal as if it were mud. The Carefree Practitioner De Bui had, using his bare hands, shattered the Golden Sword Demon King's weapon thanks to this very technique. At the moment of collision just now, Wang Qi had concentrated all his Phase Waves at his shoulder and slammed fiercely into Du Bin's Flying Sword. So sharp was the Phase Wave that it easily penetrated the Flying Sword's surface. A strand of Phase Wave entered the sword and directly split one of its Magic Seals. With an incomplete Magic Seal, its functions were compromised, and naturally, Du Bin struggled to recall it. At this moment, Wang Qi seemed to mockingly float the words, "Little Du, your recall of the Flying Sword seems quite unpracticed, doesn't it?" Recalling an already-refined Magic Artifact belongs to the basics among the Basic Skills; Wang Qi's remark was undoubtedly a slap in the face of Du Bin, making this scion erupt with fury. Du Bin snorted and gathered most of his mana, tugging at the Flying Sword. The Flying Sword trembled and then soared into the sky, as if trying to trace a parabola back to its master's hand. But Wang Qi was not willing to let it end there. Just as the Flying Sword passed over his head, another twist occurred. All at once, Du Bin felt the Flying Sword completely slip from his control. Operating on its own, it turned its edge and thrust fiercely towards Wang Qi. Mao Zimiao screamed, "Be careful!" The others around also realized the imminent danger, and for a moment, they were all petrified—none of them expected Du Bin to flip his face so fast and dare to make a deadly move against the regulations of the Immortal Alliance! Amongst the panic-stricken crowd, only Wang Qi smiled with ease and pleasure, for he now had the trajectory of the Flying Sword in his grasp. That which had penetrated the Flying Sword was not just a wave. Within that Wave Blade, there was a trace of Heavenly Song Electromagnetic Energy. After that sliver of Electromagnetic Magic magnetized the Flying Sword, it would respond remotely to the Electromagnetic Field he had constructed within his body. Now that Du Bin had no power to control the sword, it was nothing for Wang Qi to interfere with the sword's trajectory. After hearing Mao Zimiao's shout, Wang Qi even had time to admire, "Catfolk do have a pleasant scream." Then, as if his head had grown eyes atop, he slashed upward with a knife-hand strike. With a "clang," the Flying Sword was actually cleaved in two by Wang Qi's bare hands! Wang Qi was not at all surprised by his achievement. His strike might have appeared casual, but the move used was the "Invisible Scattering Hand", a Martial Skill that, when combined with the Elephant Phase Wave Skill, doubled the power of the Wave Blade. Moreover, his attack was precisely calculated, with both subsequent Wave Blades striking the exact same spot. Du Bin's face went pale as the Magic Artifact connected to his mind was severed, causing him some backlash. If at this point, Wang Qi had pretended to be a mature master playing cool, Du Bin would have felt nothing more than having kicked an iron plate. But what Wang Qi wanted was not that effect. Therefore, Wang Qi quickly feigned an aggrieved expression and, with trembling fingers, pointed at Du Bin, "You you you... You attack me... You actually attacked me?" Zhen Chan quietly snarked in his mind, "Overacting, overacting, you two are hardly Daoist Fellows Longyang bound by life and death." Old man, you surely don't understand. To infuriate him, this way is most effective. While responding to Zhen Chan in his heart, Wang Qi, with righteous indignation, delivered his long-prepared line, "Even my dad has never chopped at me!" When he said this, the surrounding crowd was instantly thrown into disarray. A sickly flush appeared on Du Bin's pale face, seething with anger, "Wang, you you... Stop spouting blood and slandering!" Wang Qi sneered, "I'm spouting blood and slandering? I was the one attacked just now!" Du Bin shouted, "It's you, definitely you, controlling my Flying Sword with a spell to stab yourself! Who knows if you're using some kind of Elemental Magnetic mana or similar magnetic spell!" Wang Qi's expression hardened, "Stop frickin' slandering and causing trouble!" Hearing this, Du Bin's body shook with rage—after all, who was spouting blood and slandering? Just then, he suddenly felt intense heat in front of him. Looking up, it was the result of Wang Qi vigorously driving his mana. The heat was nearly singeing the hair of people nearby, and even Mao Zimiao, standing closest to him, couldn't help but step back. "Open your damned eyes and see clearly, my Basic Skill is the Heavenly Entropy Technique! Tell me, where does this Skill have the power to remotely control another's Magic Artifact?" Once Wang Qi said this, the people around erupted into heated discussions. In the Transmitting Technique Hall's rear hall, apart from the Heavenly Calculation Atlas, which was easy to start but hard to cultivate, every scripture was blocked by a math problem, and without solving the problem, one couldn't see the technique—a puzzle that most of them couldn't even begin to understand! "Has Senior Brother Wang been tirelessly solving this problem since he enrolled?" "It must be so. What terrifying talent in mathematics!" "If he could cultivate such a respectable technique from Fentian Prefecture in such short order, this year might see the emergence of a Fentian True Inheritor!" "That's not necessarily true; I heard that Wanfa Sect also takes in disciples who cultivate the Heavenly Entropy Technique as True Inheritors." "Yes, yes, with such a terrifying talent in mathematics, he deserves to join Wanfa Sect." "But... now that he has cultivated this technique..." As they discussed, Du Bin's face grew paler by the shade. To others, Wang Qi cultivating the fearsome Heavenly Entropy Technique meant he had no time for others. But Du Bin was very clear that his sword had been interfered with by someone else, and that person was definitely Wang Qi! Wang Qi scanned the crowd with the corner of his eye, feeling rather disdainful inwardly. He thought, If I told them I was concurrently cultivating nearly a dozen Divine Skills, I'd probably scare you all to death! After showing off for a bit, Wang Qi pulled Mao Zimiao and walked outside the Kitchen, "I'm going to tell the teacher! Azimiao, be my witness!"
