Is this what a zombie is?

"boom--"

The giant cat was blasted away by Jiang Chen's punch and crashed heavily to the ground.

This punch nearly sent the giant cat flying.

It means exactly what it says: electric arcs flash within it, making crackling sounds.

It twisted and rolled on the ground, almost crawling in the shadows, which showed how uncomfortable it was.

In addition, its body, like a deflated balloon, constantly emitted gray air currents in all directions.

Within that churning gray air current, the heads of hundreds of cats in various shapes appeared and disappeared, all emitting silent howls, their expressions twisted and painful.

Orange cats, tabby cats, blue cats, Ragdolls, golden shaded cats... and cream cats, the huskies of the cat world.

All the varieties that Jiang Chen could recognize are listed here, and there are many others that he couldn't identify.

Goodness, is this the United Nations of cats?

The question flashed through his mind, but now was not the time to delve into it.

What we need to do is strike while the iron is hot and kill it!

Either finish it off now, or it will recover and definitely destroy itself.

As for subduing him, that idea is there, but it's unrealistic. After all, Jiang Chen has no idea how to subdue him, so it's better to just finish him off.

Lightning condensed and compressed in his palm, and thunder was poised to strike.

However, the giant cat recovered faster than he had expected.

No, it's not recovery; it's more like a desperate attempt to survive by cutting off an arm.

The Palm Thunder needs a little time to charge up, which is called the pre-cast animation. Just as the Palm Thunder was about to be completed, the giant cat sensed the aura of death.

What was originally just a wisp of gray air suddenly contracted into a ball before spreading out again.

Numerous cat phantoms rushed towards Jiang Chen, obstructing his view and preventing him from locking onto the giant cat's figure.

In a brief two or three seconds, the gray aura dissipated considerably. When Jiang Chen saw the giant cat again, its size had shrunk to that of a leopard cat.

Its face was filled with human-like savagery. This was the first time it had suffered such a great loss and was almost killed. Extreme anger drove it completely insane.

The giant cat let out a sharp hiss, accusing Jiang Chen with all its might.

"You...you tricked me! You ambushed me!!!"

Jiang Chen remained completely unfazed, even feeling a bit amused, and retorted with a shrug.

"You tricked me first. You can jump from three to ninety-nine, so why can't I be unethical? If you can ambush me, why fight me head-on?"

The giant cat was stunned by the retort, and then went completely berserk.

With a sudden burst of power from its limbs, it pounced towards Jiang Chen like a cannonball, its sharp claws drawing a deadly arc in the air.

The confinement room was cramped and not conducive to dodging. Jiang Chen quickly assessed the situation, turned around swiftly, and retreated to the relatively open corridor.

One person and one cat, shifting their position.

Seeing the giant cat pounce again, Jiang Chen took a deep breath. The current gathered in his palm, after being condensed and compressed, did not diffuse and discharge; all the electrical energy was firmly locked in.

Finally, it extends outwards, stretches, and eventually transforms into a long, dark blue whip, several meters long, composed of pure electric current, constantly emitting a buzzing sound.

"I'm not only here to deceive and ambush you, I'll also treat you to a lightning-fast five-whip strike!"

……

Let's rewind to a few days ago, before Jiang Chen was sentenced to prison, in a VIP ward at Renxin Hospital.

Ai Yi was sitting cross-legged on the bed, not meditating, but simply spacing out.

After persisting in her cultivation for three days, Ai Yi had already started to lie down, which did not surprise Jiang Chen at all.

This kid has a lot of flaws, one of which is his short attention span; his interest comes and goes quickly.

For him, this spiritual practice was just a passing interest, not a necessity. There was no pressure, nor much motivation.

After persisting for several days, his progress in cultivation was almost slow, and he became too lazy to continue.

Jiang Chen, on the other hand, is completely different.

Because he had no choice.

If you don't roll up, you'll die, literally.

He used to study diligently because he clearly understood the gap between himself and Ai Yi.

Good academic performance is his best way out and the best path to advancement.

Young and full of passion, he didn't want to take any shortcuts.

Now, in order to rekindle his former passion, he must study the visualization diagrams day and night, and make the most of every minute to cultivate and accumulate strength.

But then the problem arises: he didn't have a mentor to guide him, nor did he have a complete and systematic learning process or professional training to gradually master and upgrade his skills.

There's only one thing you can do, and that's to rely entirely on your own understanding.

There was nothing there except for the visualization.

There really isn't any; not a single word.

As for your suggestion to rely on Master Cat for guidance, don't make Master Cat laugh.

When Ai asked Master Cat what cultivation experience he had that he could pass on, Master Cat replied as follows.

"My cultivation system is different from yours. In your human eyes, I am a monster. The magic that humans have developed, especially lightning magic, is for the purpose of suppressing and eliminating monsters."

"You asked me what experience I can share? Are you referring to the experience of being hunted down?"

After thinking about it for a while, Ai realized that it really was true!

However, the cat still gave some pointers. It lazily lay on the windowsill sunbathing and flicked its tail as it spoke.

"Things are inanimate, but people are alive. In your words, it is better to have no books than to believe everything in them."

"Human cultivation systems are developed from scratch through self-exploration. Visualization diagrams are the foundation of cultivation, the cornerstone of a towering building, the beginning of everything."

"As for what happens next, you can use your imagination and creativity to develop your own system. Don't be bound by rules and regulations."

"Becoming a master of opening doors isn't actually that difficult. Your era isn't lacking in theoretical knowledge, is it?"

Jiang Chen has no shortage of academic qualifications, comprehension, imagination, and creativity.

Living in an era of advanced internet information, Jiang Chen, who has read a lot of anime and novels, has no shortage of theoretical basis to draw upon.

There's only one thing he's missing: the blue bar, which means he has battery power!

Thus, under Cat Master's guidance, Jiang Chen figured out one unique move after another.

The first thing Jiang Chen thought of was Misaka Mikoto's Railgun. He was very familiar with the theoretical basis, after all, he was a science student and his physics grades were pretty good.

However, it is still quite difficult to implement. There is still an insurmountable boundary between magic and superpowers, and between fantasy and reality.

However, Jiang Chen successfully replicated the Lightning Thunder Fist of the senior disciple of Maoshan and the Lightning Five-Strike Whip of Master Ma.

Because both are essentially variations of the Palm Thunder.

The Lightning Five-Strike Whip really only has five strikes. This move consumes a lot of electrical energy and requires a high level of mastery, so it cannot be sustained for long.

The advantage is that it can operate remotely, and theoretically the distance could even be unlimited, as long as there is enough power.
