Only My Way

Was Ling Wuyuan a swordsman?

Answer: No, not at all.

Just as he said.

From beginning to end, he was not a swordsman.

From the moment he joined the [Black Crow Gang] and first possessed a [sword], he never considered himself a swordsman.

Even after using a sword for many years.

Even though he held a sword every day for several years.

But, for him, the sword was just a tool in the simplest sense.

Extreme affection for the sword?

Sorry…

That kind of thing never happened even for a second.

To put it bluntly.

What is a swordsman?

It is a person who incomparably believes in the sword in their hand, and even entrusts everything to the sword in their hand.

Then what about Ling Wuyuan?

The reality can only be described as completely irrelevant.

Ultimately.

What he believes in has never been the so-called sword, but himself…

He believes in his own will and his own strength.

He believes that he can kill the enemy.

He believes that he can stand at the top.

As for whether the weapon in his hand is a sword or not?

That doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter at all.

It can be a sword, it can be a saber, it can be a staff…

Of course.

It can even be bare hands!

The reason why he has been using a sword all these years is mostly because using a sword is more convenient and more handsome.

However.

His behavior really created some wrong impressions for everyone…

“Ah?”

Even Guan Xiangfei was slightly stunned:

“You are not a swordsman?”

In his words.

There was a feeling of disbelief.

Ling Wuyuan responded indifferently:

“That's right.”

“The reason why I use a sword is entirely because it is more convenient and more handsome this way.”

Hearing this.

Guan Xiangfei immediately fell silent.

The reason was too simple and unadorned.

He couldn't refute it.

However, Guan Xiangfei would not admit one thing.

That is, the reason why he initially learned swordsmanship was actually also because this thing was more handsome to use…

Yes.

Being handsome is everyone's principle!

No matter how strong the weapon.

If it looks ugly, everyone will ultimately dislike it a bit first!!

“Forget it… I don’t care whether you are a swordsman or not, anyway, you have to properly welcome the next attack. Since I learned sword intent, you are still the first opponent I am willing to use it on.”

“Originally, I was planning to use it as a trump card during the state competition, and then truly amaze everyone…”

Guan Xiangfei, who felt that his self-perception was misplaced, muttered softly twice.

Guan Xiangfei, who originally wanted to act cool in front of Ling Wuyuan as a swordsman, immediately launched his already fully charged attack!

At that moment.

Under his will.

Those true energy blades that could instantly pierce and melt thick metal blocks instantly shot out!

Also at this moment.

Ling Wuyuan instinctively sensed that he had been locked on by something in advance!

Therefore.

It was absolutely impossible to avoid this wave of attacks with conventional evasion techniques!

So he directly chose to meet force with force!!

The majestic true energy in his body instantly turned into raging fire and violent wind, erupting out, and then evolving into a huge fire tornado, indiscriminately engulfing everything around it…

At the same time.

After making his debut for a long time.

Ling Wuyuan finally used a so-called sword move against the enemy.

A sword move other than [Basic Swordsmanship]…

It was a sword technique called [Gale Swift Sword]!

Usually, only people in the [Body Refinement Realm] and [Bone Forging Realm] would use it!

After all.

The only advantage of this sword technique is that the speed is relatively fast.

It is truly a common technique to the extreme!!

But at this moment.

In Ling Wuyuan's hands, the power of this sword technique was truly so powerful that even the founder would not dare to recognize it!!

There is no other reason.

Ling Wuyuan's strength is all-encompassing.

In the past, the reason why he was too lazy to use sword moves was simply because there was no need for it.

As for most martial arts, he can comprehend seventy-eight percent after just looking at it once, and he can innovate after practicing it a few more times.

Even if [Gale Swift Sword] is just a rather unpopular sword technique.

In his hands, it can still turn decay into magic!!

Along with the activation of [Gale Swift Sword].

It was as if some kind of catalyst had been added.

The fire tornado created by Ling Wuyuan immediately ushered in a doubling of power!!

It was as if it were a mountain fire with the help of a strong wind, instantly spreading wildly…

Moreover, [Flawless Circle] is like a special perspective, revealing the flow patterns of the surrounding energy to Ling Wuyuan in real time, allowing him to find the weak points and apply them!!

So… just like the abyss giant mouth that can swallow everything.

From the beginning of its birth, the fire tornado continuously absorbed the attacks that shot from all directions, crushing their forms on the spot, restoring them to a more harmless state, and then incorporating them into itself, allowing itself to expand wildly!!

In this process.

Ling Wuyuan can also clearly feel that those blades condensed from thunder and fire are actually resisting fiercely, trying to resist Ling Wuyuan's attack like stubborn stones.

Although it was a stubborn resistance, it still inevitably greatly reduced the efficiency of Ling Wuyuan's actions!

That feeling…

It was as if those blades were alive!

Ling Wuyuan suddenly had some thoughts in his mind.

‘So that’s it, this is the result of integrating one’s own will into one’s own attack…’

At the same time, Ling Wuyuan also recalled some classics he had seen before:

‘It seems that the so-called sword intent should be some kind of interference of mental power in reality…’

‘No, it shouldn’t be just that, perhaps it is also mixed with things like rules?’

He could judge that, to a large extent, those attacks containing sword intent, in addition to being strengthened in terms of actual strength, actually also possessed some kind of special inhibition, which was a special force that could suppress different kinds of energy!

Once hit and caused effective damage.

I am afraid that the injuries on the injured person's body will be very, very difficult to recover.

In short.

The existence of sword intent is equivalent to permanently adding two special effects, [Armor Penetration] and [Serious Injury (Inhibit Recovery)], to the user's attack!

‘It’s really easy to use.’

Just as Ling Wuyuan was thinking this.

In front of him, the fire tornado that enveloped him.

Was forcibly torn open by a sharp long sword!!

There.

Guan Xiangfei had already successfully approached!

The ultimate electric light and raging fire made the tip of the long sword like an indestructible drill!!

It broke through the heavy obstacles straight and went towards Ling Wuyuan!!

But…

All of this was ultimately within Ling Wuyuan's expectations!

The sword in his hand successfully accumulated enough power after turning around once.

Immediately, with a faster and stronger momentum, he met the sword in Guan Xiangfei's hand!!

The next moment!

Wind!!

Thunder!!

Fire!!

Impact!!

Welcomed a big explosion at the same time!!

“Rumble!!!!”

In the loud noise, the scarlet fire and the pale thunder and lightning invaded everything around with their own colors!!

Even the large formation barrier that enveloped the entire [Central Martial Arts Arena].

At this moment.

Could not help but violently shake and even slightly deform!!

Looking around.

The entire [Central Martial Arts Arena] was simply like a super light bulb!!

A super light bulb with a diameter of thousands of meters!!

The brilliance it released was even far stronger than the sun for the surrounding onlookers!!

Even in broad daylight, it was completely enough to cover an area of several kilometers!!

Forcing the onlookers to instinctively squint their eyes or even close their eyes!!

Even more so, all the onlookers instinctively retreated, fearing that the formation barrier would explode on the spot!!

In the end.

After everything calmed down on the spot.

In the scorched [Central Martial Arts Arena].

Only Ling Wuyuan stood quietly.

And Guan Xiangfei had already fallen silently on the ground, his whole body pitch black.

His shape looked like a piece of charred barbecue!

Only the eyes that were always wide open and the constantly rising and falling chest proved that he was still alive and even remained conscious!
