Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

To sense lightning what he needed to focus on was the surroundings. 

He was currently in an underground hall - there couldn\'t be the worst possible place to try to sense the lightning element.

But there was no choice for Ye Tian Yun, he couldn\'t go out for the next one month, and if he did go, he wouldn\'t be able to get back here.

It wasn\'t worth it, because stabilizing his Sword Domain wasn\'t his only goal. He had one more thing to do.

And to achieve both of these goals, this was the best place to cultivate for Ye Tian Yun.

Due to the already existing arrays, no one outside the hall can know what\'s going on; and what and how Ye Tian Yun was cultivating and making use of his time inside this hall.

Thus, Ye Tian Yun had to try and focus on the lightning element through his surroundings.

With a clear-headed mind, Ye Tian Yun focused on the very basics of what is needed to create lightning through his surroundings.

But this isn\'t something that a crown prince ever learns. Thus, Ye Tian Yun asked, \'System, what makes lightning, a lightning?\'

[Host, lightning is hard to understand but quite easy to make]

[First, you need to understand what actually lightning is.]

[As per the old records, lightning is an electrical discharge caused by imbalances between storm clouds and the ground, or within the clouds themselves. Most lightning occurs within the clouds.

There\'s a mysterious phenomenon called the "Sheet lightning", it describes a distant bolt that lights up an entire cloud base. Other visible bolts may appear as a bead, ribbon, or rocket lightning.

During a storm, colliding particles of rain, ice, or snow inside storm clouds increase the imbalance between storm clouds and the ground, and often negatively charge the lower reaches of storm clouds. Objects on the ground, like steeples, trees, and the ground itself, become positively charged—creating an imbalance that nature seeks to remedy by passing current between the two charges.

Lightning is extremely hot—a flash can heat the air around it to temperatures five times hotter than the sun\'s surface. This heat causes surrounding air to rapidly expand and vibrate, which creates the pealing thunder we hear a short time after seeing a lightning flash.]

\'Uh.. oh..\' Ye Tian Yun gave a blank expression, \'That didn\'t seem hard, but, there\'s no storm in this underground hall, do you have a way to create lightning? Even a small spark will do.\'

[Host, what you need to do is pretty simple.]

[You need cold air and warm air. When they meet, the warm air goes up. It makes thunderstorm clouds! The cold air has ice crystals. The warm air has water droplets. During the storm, the droplets and crystals bump together and move apart in the air. This rubbing makes static electrical charges in the clouds.]

\'Tell me something which I can do right now.\'

[Host, why don\'t you comb your hair?]

\'Combing my hair? How will that help?\'

[Host, the logic behind this is a piece of common knowledge in one of the other universes]

\'Hm? Do tell.\'

[91 Kill Points needed.]

\'...\' Ye Tian Yun let out a sigh, \'Alright, you better give me something worth knowing.\'

[91 Kill Points consumed]

[7168 Kill Points remaining.]

[Host, Everything we see is made up of tiny particles of matter called atoms. The atoms are made up of even smaller parts called protons, electrons and neutrons. An atom usually has the same number of protons and electrons, but sometimes electrons can be moved away from their atoms.

If you comb your hair, for example, electrons leave the atoms and molecules in your hair and travel to the plastic comb. The comb, covered in negatively charged electrons, becomes negatively charged as well, and your hair is left with a positive charge. This "separation of charge" is the reason for the collection of effects we call static electricity.

If two objects have different charges, they attract (or pull towards) each other. If two objects have the same charge, they repel (or push away) from each other. After you\'ve combed your hair, every single hair has the same positive charge. Since things with the same charge repel each other, the hairs try to move away from each other by standing up and away from all the other hairs, resulting in you having a very funny-looking hairdo!]

\'Don\'t tell me this is the reason why my hair always stood up like spikes whenever I used my lightning element?\'

[Yes, Host. This is exactly what happened. Though it didn\'t affect your battle prowess, not it mattered at that time.]

\'Oh…\' Ye Tian Yun nodded and rubbed his spatial ring in the index finger with his thumb, \'Let\'s see how things work out. Time to comb my hair.\'

Soon, Ye Tian Yun had a comb in his hand and a long upright mirror in front of him.

Removing the buckle through his hair, Ye Tian Yun let go of his long flowing hair.

Long hairs in men was a pretty common sight be it in the Lower Heavens or the Middle Heavens. The only reason why people kept such long hair was that they never bothered to cut them.

And also because they looked kinda cool with their cultivator robes.

Though the real reason was due to a very ancient custom and saying, \'Your hair and body is given by your parents, you shouldn\'t damage it.\'

This saying seemed quite absurd and more of a sarcastic comment.

Because one shouldn\'t forget that this is a cultivation world and here, the strong rule supreme.

How could it not be possible to damage one\'s body at all in the bloody battles and fights that a cultivator faces in his lifetime?

In fact, if someone has a scarless body, he will be looked down upon by the other. 

To cultivators, even with high cultivation, where they can easily recover and treat themselves, the scars are like prizes from the battles they have fought.

Thus, they would rather keep them on their chests and back.
