Chapter 12533

Once you are hit by the first move of the Ephemeral Flower, you will inevitably be hit by the second and third moves, unless there is an external force to forcibly interrupt it.

In particular, these three styles are different from each other and are not completely identical.

The first move has relatively low damage, but it starts and ends very quickly.

If you hit the target, you can follow up with the second and third moves. If you miss, there won't be much of a problem, and no one will be able to find a weakness in your defense.

Crucially, it also has a certain counter-attack effect.

To put it bluntly, this move is characterized by its high accuracy and lack of risk.

As for the second move of the Ephemeral Flower, although its damage is not very high, it has a considerable control effect. It can force people to be stunned for a period of time, which lays the groundwork for the third move.

As for the third move of the Ephemeral Flower, it is pure burst damage.

Lin Yi's initial estimate was that the third move of the Ephemeral Flower technique alone was as lethal as two Black Star Explosions.

If you take all three hits of the Ephemeral Flower Technique, it's equivalent to three Black Star Blasts!

Just imagining that scene makes my eyelids twitch.

Once caught in one of these traps, you'll be either dead or crippled!

The Cao family of Tianjun has been able to maintain its position as a top-tier aristocratic family, and its profound foundation is not something to be taken lightly.

Cao Luoshen looked at Lin Yi expectantly: "President, what do you think?"

"Pretty good."

Lin Yi gave a fair assessment.

If the other party hadn't offered it to you, trying to buy it from the market would have been a pipe dream.

Lin Yi thought for a moment and then directly offered a price: "How about one hundred Godhood Fragments?"

Cao Luoshen was stunned for a moment, then widened her eyes: "President, you really know how to set a price."

"Those one hundred and twenty fragments of divine essence?"

Lin Yi decisively raised the price.

Strictly speaking, although there is no market reference price for this thing, the price he quoted is already an outrageous amount.

Others, let alone individuals, even top-tier families, would find it difficult to make such a grand gesture.

But from Lin Yi's perspective, the Three Styles of the Ephemeral Flower are absolutely worthy of this astronomical price.

For him, this is not just a set of moves that can burst out output; the key is that it can perfectly make up for the shortcomings in mid-to-close range offense and defense.

For long-range attacks, there's Black Star Blast; for mid-to-close range, there's Ephemeral Flower Three Styles; and for close-quarters combat, ground techniques can be used.

In addition, it also needs to be equipped with an abnormally high level of defense and high speed.

With such a combination, anyone would be scratching their head when facing such an opponent.

Cao Luoshen waved her hands repeatedly: "That's not what I meant. My father said that the Three Styles of the Ephemeral Flower are not for sale to the public."

Lin Yi was taken aback: "Huh?"

Cao Luoshen added, "But it can be delivered."

"..."

Lin Yi was somewhat surprised: "Isn't this inappropriate?"

Because of Cao Luoshen, the Cao family can be said to be one of the top families that placed bets on the Final Meeting the earliest. All in all, the bets they placed were not small.

Even without an official announcement, many things were already in sync and interconnected.

The core decision-making body of the Heavenly Palace, Cao Mang, the head of the Cao family, has always been a staunch defender of the End Society, and the two sides have long been quasi-allies in a de facto sense.

Even for a quasi-alliance, giving away the Cao family's most core Three Forms of Ephemeral Flower for free is still too much of a gift.

Cao Luoshen replied, "That's what my father said: If the president accepts it, it means you consider the Cao family as friends; if you don't, it means you're still distant."

Lin Yi was both amused and exasperated: "So, according to you, I can't just refuse to accept it?"

He certainly understood what the other person meant.

Compared to the fragments of divine power, the other party wanted the favor he owed more.

Human relationships are always different from person to person.

Some people's favors are worthless; they can't be repaid, or even if they have the ability to repay, they don't want to. After all, not everyone has a moral bottom line.

But for some people, personal relationships are of paramount importance.

Lin Yi undoubtedly belongs to the latter category.

As a top-tier aristocratic family, the Cao family's eye for investment and talent is undoubtedly first-rate.

If things continue to develop as they are, one day Lin Yi may very well surpass the Five Saints of the aristocratic families and become the true ruler of Tianjun.

At that time, they will have contributed to the success of the founding of the dynasty.

This simple act of kindness can bring back at least a hundred or a thousand times the return!

Moreover, sending out this "Ephemeral Flower Three Styles" would not actually result in much of a substantial loss for the Cao family.

If you view this as a business transaction, it's a sure-fire way to make a profit.

Lin Yi finally nodded with a wry smile: "Please pass on a message to your father that I will personally visit him to express my gratitude when the time is right."

Cao Luoshen was overjoyed: "I will definitely bring it!"

Favor debts are hard to repay.

Unfortunately, the gift was just too perfect for Lin Yi to refuse.

Fortunately, based on the time they've spent together, the Cao family's style of doing things is quite compatible with his.

Judging from this situation, Cao Luoshen will most likely succeed Cao Luoshen in the future, and the alliance will inevitably become even closer.

Even considering the future governance of Tianjun, Lin Yi did need a qualified assistant, and the Cao family of Tianjun was a good option.

Even if you owe someone a favor, you shouldn't dig a hole for yourself.

But now that this has started, there will inevitably be a second and a third.

Whether to accept everything or treat them differently, Lin Yi still needs to think it over carefully.

As for the present, I'll learn the three techniques of the Ephemeral Flower first.

In just two days, Lin Yi had completely mastered the essence of it; after all, in the New World, this would have taken a full two thousand days.

Given his current level, there are very few things that can truly motivate him to delve into for so long.

To be fair, the Three Styles of the Ephemeral Flower, as the core secret technique of the Cao family, are truly extraordinary.

Even with Lin Yi and Jiang Xiaoshang's perspective, the entire research was already perfect, with almost nothing needing adjustment or improvement.

When Lin Yi came out again, he immediately saw the invitation placed in front of him.

"Fang Taichu?"

Lin Yi was taken aback: "The Fang family?"

Lu Bukui explained, "We are somewhat related, but at most we can only be considered distant relatives, and even if we are related, it is very limited."

"However, this person is quite well-known in Tianjun. He is considered the most influential gourmet in Tianjun and often holds gourmet gatherings. Many prominent families are his guests."

Lin Yi listened while looking at the invitation.

The content was quite simple: they invited him to dinner, but they emphasized the name of the person they were inviting. It wasn't the "Emperor of Termination" who was invited, but rather the mysterious master behind the Termination Society.

A hint of amusement flickered in Lin Yi's eyes: "That's rather interesting."

Even if others want to curry favor with him, they will at least outwardly maintain a facade of good relations with the Terminator.

This was the first time I'd ever seen someone directly bypass the Termination Council, or even the Termination Emperor, and propose to deal with this mysterious master they had created in person.

Of course, others may have had the same idea, but they just don't dare to bring it up.
