Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Ye Tian Yun was currently relentlessly combing his hair to generate something called 'friction', which would then help in the flow of 'charge'.

To Ye Tian Yun, words like friction and charge were alien. If not for System, he may have never heard or understood a different meaning of these words.

Before today, the only other meaning that he thought of charge was to attack or charge at enemies.

As for friction, Ye Tian Yun had never used this word; thus, it was more of a new term for him.

His current goal was to generate a spark of lightning. But this didn't seem like an easy task to him.

After all, how is it possible to create lightning from a comb? This was unheard of. 

But on System's insistence, Ye Tian Yun began to concentrate on this task and combed his hair, softly and swiftly.

The System had told him to wait till a certain point when taking the comb close to the hair, but not touching them would make the hairs move.

As long as he reached this stage, there was a chance he could generate a small spark through the air, and that spark would be enough for him to comprehend something, at least he hoped so.

As long as he succeeded in this endeavor, Ye Tian Yun would be able to work on the next steps and would be able to succeed in creating a lightning Sword Domain. 

Though all this seemed quite far-fetched, lightning Sword Domain from a spark between comb and hair, it seemed feasible to the System. m

As for Ye Tian Yun? To him, it was like something out of the world. 

He was secretly hoping to make fun of the system once he's done combing, and there's no spark. After all, how could there be sparks on the head just by combing? It seemed utterly impossible.

As if reading his thoughts, the System made a prompt in front of him and explained what was going on through his hair as he combed them. m

[Host, when a comb is run through your hair, charges pass between your hair and the comb, so the comb becomes charged either positively or negatively, and the hair gets charged oppositely. When the comb is brought close to the hair, an opposite charge is induced in the hair, and the opposite charges attract. The charges move from one insulator to another on vigorous contact (i.e. by rubbing) to produce the two oppositely charged objects.]

Ye Tian Yun gave a weird expression while frowning, 'Will you stop reading a book and tell me in simple words? What's an insulator? What are the charges? How can charges exist? What do you mean they flow? Isn't my comb a solid object? How could anything flow in it?'

[Host doesn't need to worry about these many questions; you just need to follow System's instructions. To make you understand the basics behind this principle, it will waste time for all three of us; why not just skip over it then? It's not like you will be harmed from this.]

'Three of us!?' Ye Tian Yun's heart jumped, 'What three? Is there anyone else here?'

[The three are you, me and them, the omnipotent overseers.]

'Who are they? Omnipotent Overseers?'

[They are those who want to know about this multiverse and are currently reading whatever I say.]

'Reading what you're saying?' Ye Tian Yun gave a blank expression, 'Here I was hoping this day can't get weirder than what it already was.'

'Combing hair to generate lightning, people interested in the multiverse… don't they have other things to do?'

[Host, there's one thing I would correct you about: You aren't generating lightning. That's impossible.]

'What? But didn't you say we're gonna make a spark?' Ye Tian Yun asked with a confused expression on his face.

[Host, the spark can't compare to the lightning. This spark that System had talked about is something very simple and something with so low power and charge that you won't feel or see it.]

'Hm? Then how will it be helpful to me?'

[Host, you might 'hear' it. And that's what we're looking for. As long as you hear it, you will be able to sense lightning.]

'Oh... ' Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips, 'Things are just getting more and more incomprehensible.' 

Without any more words, he continued to brush and comb his hair for some time, before he suddenly felt his hair begin to 'weigh' and they felt 'heavier' than usual.

But the most important thing was the hair seemed to have come to life and was trying to stick to the comb whenever it was brought close to Ye Tian Yun's head.

Just then, the system prompted.

[Host, please start practicing your sword moves, but make a slight change, instead of a sword, use the comb in your hand.]

'What? Practice sword using a comb? Are you crazy?' Ye Tian Yun inwardly looked from top to bottom at the system, confused and surprised at what the System had just said.

[Yes, Host. You currently have a positive charge in the comb and a negative charge in your hair. There's not enough power to generate lightning, so what you need to do is work on your new Sword Intent and focus on cultivating Sword Domain.]

'Alright, let's try this then.'

Taking a deep breath, Ye Tian Yun took a fighting stance and got ready to make a slash and use his Sword moves while releasing his Sword Intent slowly and integrating the charges between the comb and the hair and creating a slight spark which would in return, help him increase his cultivation.

With his mind focused on the Sword Intent, and a comb held tightly between his hands, Ye Tian Yun began to practice his sword moves.

He started with the basic moves and increased speed while releasing the Sword Domain at a very high speed.

After about half an hour, Ye Tian Yun suddenly saw a bright flash of light and loud noise echoing through his ears.

Boom!

The sudden disturbance made Ye Tian Yun stumble upon his steps before recovering his posture a few moments later.

Taking a deep breath, Ye Tian Yun stared at his surroundings; finding nothing out of the ordinary, his attention went to his own body, and the first thing he noticed was the raised thin hairs on his arms!

A smile appeared on his surprised face as he was quite shocked to see the very familiar scene. Just like how his arm hairs were right now, they were also exactly the same in his previous life - whenever he used his lightning Sword Domain!

This 'hair-raising' sign was enough for him to know that he was pretty close to his goal.

Without wasting any more time, Ye Tian Yun began to once again focus on his work and started to cultivate. The only difference was this time, his confidence had now increased a lot after seeing the unexpected result of his previous attempt.

He continued to use the comb like a sword and followed the sword moves and techniques, from the very basic moves to the One Sword For All, Ye Tian Yun was trying all the moves that he knew of.

Just then - 

*zip*

Ye Tian Yun heard something. This caused a slight disturbance, but it managed to boost his confidence and made him focus even more as his moves became faster and sharper than ever.

Without even wasting time on breathing, Ye Tian Yun continued to make the sword moves.

Occasionally he would hear the sound that only added to his excitement.

*zip*

*zap*

*zing*

Ye Tian Yun clearly knew what was making this noise, which was also the reason for the broad smile on his face, which had never been this confident since the last time he killed someone.

However, he knew that this wasn't enough. These sounds were just from slight sparks that were coming due to his good flow in the sword moves, which was complementing the charges in his hair and the comb.

Just as he made his next move, he heard another prompt from the system.

[Host, be ready to switch the comb with your Sword Intent, and release your whole Sword Intent at once, without any fear of the consequences. Leave that to the System.]

Ye Tian Yun inwardly nodded his head and continued to make sword moves without wasting any thoughts.

After about what seemed like an eternity, the zip zap sounds began to get frequent and louder.

Ye Tian Yun would even see occasional flashes of light and sparks through the air.

Everything told him that he was getting closer!

But, slowly fatigue began to creep up as he found it harder to concentrate; however, Ye Tian Yun kept on pushing himself for one move after another.

As beads of sweat flowed through his forehead, it became clear that he was getting closer to his limit with every passing instant and might collapse anytime now.

However, every time he felt like he couldn't do it anymore and should take a break, Ye Tian Yun forced himself to raise the mentality once again and pushed himself forward.

As for his motivation to do all this? The people he knew - be it his friends or foes.

Ye Tian Yun knew that he didn't have much time; every day, every hour, every minute, every second was important to him.

He had many things that he needed answers to. He had many enemies that he needed to kill. He had so many goals that he needed to accomplish.
