I rely on myself

Chapter 404: The Long-lost Demon

Lin Yuan did it as soon as he thought of it. He didn't hesitate too much. The magic power in his body moved, and the sand and dust on the ground immediately began to rotate and rise at high speed, forming a sandstorm.

The sandstorm instantly covered the area within a few meters centered on Lin Yuan, making it impossible to see what was happening inside.

Faced with such a sudden change, everyone from the dark faction immediately stopped their attack and quickly retreated, wanting to observe the situation first.

But before they could figure out anything, Lin Yuan took the initiative.

In the rising dust, Lin Yuan instantly burst out at his fastest speed, like a trailing shadow, and rushed in front of Leif in an instant.

Among the enemies present, the only one who really posed a threat to Lin Yuan was Leif. As long as he was dealt with, the rest would basically be nothing to be afraid of.

Because of this, isn’t it obvious what to do?
Looking at the man with dark green hair in front of him, Lin Yuan did not hesitate and instantly injected the magic power in his body into the Dusk Greatsword.

As the magic power of Lin Yuan was absorbed, the ominous feeling on the Dusk Greatsword became stronger and stronger, and it emitted a sword energy with the same dusk color as the blade.

Lin Yuanqiang endured the pain from his hands holding the Dusk Greatsword and slashed at Leif with all his strength.

Facing Lin Yuan's sudden attack, Leif had no intention of blocking it, nor did he dare to. At this moment, he had only one thought, which was to absolutely not allow this sword to fall on him, and he tried his best to avoid it.

As Leif tried desperately to dodge, the sword blade brushed past Leif's body, and in the end, Lin Yuan's surprise attack missed.

The greatsword that was gleaming with the light of dusk swung into the air, but its sword energy did not stop.

As the sword blade was swung, it broke away from the sword body and extended in a straight line like a crescent moon. Wherever it passed, a deep chasm was cut into the ground, extending for a full hundred meters. The dusk-colored sword energy finally exhausted all its power and dissipated.

Looking at the hundred-meter-long gap on the ground, Leif broke out in a cold sweat on his back.

When he was facing Lin Yuan's sword before, his instinct had been sounding the alarm, reminding him that he must not take the sword head-on, so he chose to dodge in the first place. Now it has been proved that this was the most correct choice.

Seeing that the sword energy has such destructive power, let alone facing the sword blade directly, if Leif had not chosen to dodge but blocked it directly, he would have been cut in half at this moment.

Thinking of this, Leif felt a wave of fear in his heart, and hurriedly retreated again. After he had opened up a distance of dozens of meters, he felt a little relieved.

Looking at Leif's retreating figure, Lin Yuan certainly wanted to continue chasing him if possible, but the numbness from his hands still prevented him from doing so.

Although his hands had gradually regained consciousness over time, they were still a little short of full recovery, so there was nothing Lin Yuan could do but watch the other party pull away again.

Soon the sensation in his hands recovered to an almost normal level, and he was able to fully grasp the Dusk Greatsword again. Lin Yuan thought as he felt the condition of his arms.

"It seems that under normal circumstances, the ability of Dusk can only be used to this extent. If it is more, it will not only be the temporary loss of sensation in both hands. In order to end it quickly, I have no choice but to..."

While Lin Yuan was preparing, Leif finally regained his sanity.

Seeing that Lin Yuan had not made any other moves since he swung that powerful sword, Leif immediately noticed it.

That amazing sword strike just now must have come at a huge price, which meant that after Lin Yuan swung the sword, he no longer had the ability to continue chasing.

Thinking of this, Leif felt relieved but also a little regretful.

If he had not been frightened by the power of the sword and lost his composure, he would have been more aware of this fact and taken the opportunity to inflict heavy damage on him and end the battle. As for now, Leif and his men around him, who were still a little apprehensive, did not act immediately, intending to wait and see what was happening, thus missing the last chance.

"……thump……"

A faint, invisible, yet extremely attention-grabbing wave suddenly sounded.

Then followed a sound of breathing as if some ferocious creature had just awakened from a deep sleep.

"... inhale, inhale, inhale, inhale..."

"This is……"

The attention of both Leif and his men around him were instantly attracted by these movements.

In just a moment they found the source of the noise, it was Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan's condition at this time was very strange, his head was slightly tilted forward and drooped, making it difficult to see his face. At the same time, a special atmosphere emanated from him.

"……call……"

An unstoppable airflow suddenly burst out from Lin Yuan's body and spread out in an instant. This airflow was not very strong, just equivalent to an ordinary gust of wind, at most it could blow away the hair.

But at this moment, Leif and his men who were under this airflow were not so relaxed. On the contrary, their instincts were frantically sounding the alarm and warning them.

As if they were facing the existence at the top of the life chain, Leif and his men had a strange feeling when looking at Lin Yuan in front of them.

That is, the existence in front of them is definitely not a human being, at least it is not an ordinary human like them!

That was an existence that was several levels higher than theirs! That was an existence that they absolutely could not defeat!

At this moment, they were unable to move at all. Every part of their body should be normal, but they just couldn't move, as if they were restrained by something invisible.

Under the horrified gaze of Leif and others, Lin Yuan's figure began to gradually change.

The figure, which was originally as tall as an ordinary person, began to grow rapidly, growing to about two meters and five. At the same time, the short hair also grew rapidly, stopping at Lin Yuan's waist. The hair color also changed from the original black to a burning red.

Black, flame-like patterns appeared wantonly on his body surface, showing from his naked body and extending all the way to Lin Yuan's hands, dyeing his arms, wrists, and palms completely black.

Like a ferocious beast from ancient times waking up, Lin Yuan raised his head and saw a black, flame-like pattern extending from its chest, along its neck, directly through its right eye, all the way to its forehead. It looked weird, but also had a different kind of sacredness.

Lin Yuan, whose appearance had completely changed, slowly raised his left hand as if he wanted to confirm something, looked at his left palm, and then suddenly clenched it.

"……Bang……"

A slight air explosion sound suddenly rang out. Such a small movement was able to produce an air explosion, which showed how terrifying Lin Yuan's power was at this moment.

Looking at this scene, Lin Yuan said with some emotion: "Should I say this power is long-lost? It belongs to the power of the devil..."
