Chapter 18: Ghost Liberation

"Ghost Power", a special power possessed by Lane.

Associated with flame-shaped scars on the chest, originating from the beating heart in the chest.

Its body is part of the "curse" that has affected the empire for thousands of years, and it is usually confined to the heart, and the impact is not visible.

Once activated, it will instantly sweep through the whole body, greatly improving Lane's physical ability.

With the blessing of this power, Li En is only in the first stage, and he can confront any martial artist under the transcendent head-on, and he will not fall behind, which is the basis for Li En's cross-level challenge, and it is also where he is obviously a new sword master, but he is not afraid of any old powerhouse.

However, there are gains and losses.

This force does not come without a price.

"Ghost power" is related to curses, and while improving physical functions, it will also allow curses to invade the spirit, and if you can't resist it, you will become a beast that has lost its mind.

The first time Rien awakened this power was when he was eight years old, when he and his sister encountered magical beasts in the mountains.

Driven by the dangerous stimulus and the will to protect his sister, he burst out of the "ghost power" and used a firewood knife to solve the large demonic beasts that adults may not be able to beat.

Because of this, he realized the danger of this power, and since then, he has been resisting this power, and in order to stop using it, he chose to worship under the "Sword Immortal".

It wasn't until he entered Tolz and went through a series of events that he succeeded in accepting and mastering this power, comprehending the ability called "Divine Qi Unity", and thus overcoming the bottleneck and passing from the beginning to the middle transmission.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, as the strife intensified, the "curse" became more and more active, and Rian's spirit was no longer enough to harness this force, and finally the power got out of control again during the "Northern Campaign", and it took a while to recover, as Aurelia said about quitting halfway.

If he hadn't done it all over again, he would have been haunted by it for a long time, and he would have been hung on the wall for a long time because he had lost his mind because he had witnessed Miriam's death, until the old and new Class VII came together to rescue him.

Since then, he has never completely controlled this power, but can only use it for a short period of time, and after a long time, he will still go crazy and lose his mind, even if he finally achieves the Juggernaut, it has not changed.

However, at that time, the curse was in its final stages, and it was not just a single person who could fight it. As for now, it should not have reached that stage, but it is definitely stronger than the era of "Divine Qi Unity", and how long it can be controlled, Li En is not sure.

Once you are demented, your body is weakened and you need to recuperate, and it is a big problem to affect the next exercises, and Li En has a lot of things to verify through this exercise.

Organizing the language a bit, Lane explained:

"It can be used, and the condition will be better than during the 'Northern Campaign', but I'm not sure how much better, and I haven't used this force since."

"That's just the opportunity to make sure." Aurelia's attitude is diametrically opposed, "No matter how the power comes, it is ultimately your power, which should not be avoided or rejected, but accepted and controlled." As long as the will is strong enough, there is no power that cannot be controlled. ”

Lai understands that when he was 17 years old, the "Sword Maker of Light" told him, but—

"It's no secret, using this power may lead to a rampage."

"I'll be responsible for waking you up, I made you use this power, of course I'll pay for it!" Aurelia replied without hesitation.

"In that state, I can't control myself, even if I don't go berserk, my mastery of strength is not as good as normal, and I accidentally hurt you-"

"It's hurt, it's not that it's not hurt, it's how it should be. Although the battle just now was enjoyable, the tension and oppression were not enough, and you went all out. ”

"But—"

"But what, you're still not a man, don't be a mother-in-law - hurry up, go up or not!"

“……”

Hearing Aurelia say this, Lane knew that she had no room to back down, so she simply put aside her worries for the time being.

It's all here, so what's the matter with a go.

How to say that he is also a sword master, and his mood and control are better than in the past.

And Aurelia, the strongest warrior of the empire, is not so easy to defeat, and is the most suitable opponent at the moment.

Contact Caster through the contract and keep her on standby, if you need to pull her over to deal with the aftermath at any time.

Then, Dawn closed his eyes, held a knife in one hand, and pressed his chest with the other, untying his will to his heart.

With a "bang", the agitation was several times stronger than usual and swept through the body.

The black-red ghost qi spread to the whole body, and under the influence of the ghost qi, Lien's hair turned gray, his eyes opened again were blood-red, and his voice became hoarse and low, not like a human voice.

This is an advanced version of the unity of divine qi -

"Ghost Liberation!"

Just looking at the appearance, Li En at this time is indeed like a demon who has fallen into the world.

"Is this the power you've been hiding?" Aurelia was not only not afraid, but her face was full of excitement, "Sbarassi, it's amazing, come on, Dawn Schwarzer, you can do anything, try to overwhelm me!" ”

In a normal state, Li En would definitely complain, but Li En, who liberated the ghost qi, no longer had that sparing, and all his mental power was used to fight against the curse behind the ghost qi, not letting it contaminate his state of mind.

He just said lightly: "Please be careful." ”

Then, a ghost wind flashed over.

Just by looking at the name, you can tell that this is a more advanced version of Li Wind, but it's not a normal upgrade, it's just a move that has been modified to adapt to the enhanced state of the ghost.

This is also the reason why Li En is reluctant to use "Ghost Qi Liberation" when practicing swords, which is not beneficial to the improvement of swordsmanship and realm, and the consumption is even greater.

Of course, the increase in power is real.

Not to mention anything else, the speed alone was more than double that of the normal Ri Wind, and Aurelia suddenly didn't get used to this contrast, and a strand of hair was cut off in an instant.

And Li En didn't pause at all, and he returned with another knife, and the Wind series started with Li Wind, which was a two-knife chain.

Fortunately, Aurelia is very adaptable, and at this time she has already adjusted, swinging her sword to block, but she is still repelled by Li En - the improvement of ghost energy is all-round, faster, and more powerful, and Li En can already use the Tai Dao and the Gang Sword to fight head-on.

Even so, Aurelia still smiled:

"This feeling - ah, that's what I want, overriding my sense of oppression! More, more, more pressure on me, more as my whetstone. ”

The sword is not sharpened enough, and Aurelia wants to use Rien as a sharpening stone to sharpen her peerless sword!

PS: That's right, the Sword Master can't control the ghost qi, and I don't believe that I will fight the final chapter to see if Li Ye will lose his mind.
