I rely on myself

Chapter 34: My Own Path

At the moment of "Bi Yi"'s arrival, Lin Yuan looked towards a building thoughtfully.

"This feeling is not wrong. Such a transcendent sword energy can only be possessed by the world's strongest swordsman."

While Lin Yuan was thinking about the arrival of "Bi Yi", a loud shout came from the front.

"Asshole, stop distracting me." As he said that, he slashed with all his strength, hitting him directly in the chest. However, the powerful slash that was usually invincible was like meeting its nemesis, and had no effect at all.

Looking at the armor on the opponent, after fighting for such a long time, not to mention a scratch, even the opponent's figure did not retreat a single step.

Kurogane Ouma was very angry about this, but the target was not the opponent in front of him, but himself. He was angry at why he did not have enough strength, otherwise the opponent would never ignore him and distract his attention to other things in the battle like he was doing now.

Lin Yuan looked at the Black Iron King Horse in front of him. From its eyes, Lin Yuan could see the unwillingness.

“Hehehehe————!!!”

A sudden laugh came from the opponent in front of him, and Kurogane Ouma asked in confusion: "What are you laughing at?"

"Are you unwilling to give up? That's good. It means you haven't given up." The echoing voice answered Kurogane Ouma's question.

"Since you are unwilling to give up, then catch up with me." As he said that, Lin Yuan gripped the hilt of the sword tightly and pushed away Kurotetsu Ouma's large sword with a strong force. With his other hand, he clenched a fist and hit Kurotetsu Ouma's abdomen with a stomach-cross punch that broke the sound barrier.

In an instant, the Black Iron King Horse bent down like a cooked shrimp, and was knocked flying the next moment, falling hatefully on a place more than ten meters away, instantly raising a large amount of rubble and dust.

However, soon the Black Iron King Horse stood up again as if nothing had happened, and the blood flowing from its mouth again proved that the previous attack was not ineffective.

Lin Yuan looked at the black iron horse that stood up again and praised: "I can see your awareness. Well, it's obvious."

Kurogane Ouma did not take these words of praise seriously, because what he was pursuing was not the other party's praise, but the other party's full strength.

"That's right, you must be tired of hearing words of praise, so let's talk about your shortcomings."

"Disadvantages?" The sudden change of topic made Kurogane Ouma very confused.

"That's right, when you first attacked me, you were careless because I didn't have strong magic power." Lin Yuan said in an affirmative tone.

Kurogane Ouma responded without hesitation: "Of course, magic is the power to realize one's own destiny."

————＜Magic Power＞

This is something that every swordsman in the world possesses, and it is also the thing they rely on most.

By using magic power, the swordsman can increase his physical abilities by dozens of times, and can do things like summon fire, create ice, control thunder, and even those with powerful abilities can control things like time and cause and effect.

Every swordsman with powerful magical powers, whether good or evil, has had a huge impact on the world during his lifetime.

So nowadays people have a saying about magic.

That is the saying, "Magic power is the power to carry out one's own destiny." People with strong magic power must bear the corresponding destiny, because that magic power is the power that allows that person to carry out his own destiny. And those with weak magic power are naturally unable to bear the huge destiny.

Therefore, there are many people in this world like Kurogane Ouma who do not take those with weak magic power seriously.

Lin Yuan was also well aware of this.

"In that case, then you should keep your eyes open and don't miss what comes next."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yuan mobilized his own magic power.

In the eyes of Kurogane Ouma, this amount of magic power is not huge, and can even be counted on one hand. Compared with his own magic power, he doesn't even know if it is even one tenth of it.

But Kurogane Ouma couldn't say anything when he saw such magic power.

Because the magic power in Lin Yuan's body is boiling at an unprecedented state. The original magic power is in a very illusory form even if it can be seen by the naked eye.

But the magic power in Lin Yuan's body now is different from this. It is as obvious as a thick liquid.

Moreover, Kurogane Ouma also felt an unprecedented boiling feeling from that tiny bit of magic power, just like the constantly flowing lava under the mantle, full of surging power.

"Why, why is his magic power so scarce yet so powerful?" Kurogane Ouma's mind was full of doubts, wondering what was going on in the situation before him.

Looking at the Black Iron King Horse with a puzzled face, Lin Yuan was not surprised, because he knew how abnormal the magic power in his body was now, and this abnormality was also the path created by Lin Yuan before he got the plug-in.

When he just awakened as the Swordsman, Lin Yuan understood very well the meaning of the sentence "Magic is the power to realize one's own destiny". When he learned that his magic power was only E-level, Lin Yuan began to think about how he could gain the power like Yihui to compete with those natural talents with powerful magic power.

The first thing that came to mind was of course Kurogane Ikki's sword-cutting technique <One Sword Shura>, but Lin Yuan quickly rejected it because that was not the path suitable for him.

Finally one day, Lin Yuan came up with an idea. If the amount of magic power is predetermined by nature, and there are no exceptions except for the demons who are subject to cause and effect, then can I improve the quality of magic power?

When this idea came to him, Lin Yuan could no longer suppress his excitement. He skipped classes that day and found a deserted place to conduct the experiment.

Since magic is the power to realize one's own destiny, I will place my will on magic.

Based on this, after many experiments with different methods, Lin Yuan finally found a way. By injecting his strong will (spirit) into his own thin magic power, its quality was improved. The originally illusory magic power immediately became solid, and the effect that could only increase physical ability several times suddenly doubled to more than ten times.

Even his abilities had undergone a drastic change. Originally, the ability to "contain" could only store some substances that did not contain magic power, and more conceptual ones such as gravity and potential energy could not work at all. But now it can work.

But unfortunately, due to Lin Yuan's own insufficient will (spirit), this form of magic can only last for a short time.

Lin Yuan was in a very calm mood at that time. He did not feel any excitement, anticipation, regret, or frustration... None of these emotions.

At that time, Lin Yuan looked up at the unusually bright full moon hanging high in the sky, and had only one thought in his mind.

"My path is now clear, and all that remains is to move forward."
