“We’ve finally come this far!”
On the highest floor in the south of the auditorium, an old man on crutches let out a complicated sigh.
"The magic power of the sword-cutter symbolizes destiny. Its total amount is innate and will never change. Therefore, the fate that each sword-cutter bears has its limit!"
"As long as you reach this limit, no matter how hard you try, you will never become stronger, because this is a shackle from fate! Fate does not allow this person to go beyond his control!"
In the battle circle, no matter how hard Kurogane Ikki tried, his brain was always stagnant and his body was like rust.
It was as if he had burned out all his potential as a person, and could no longer improve his moves even a single bit, and his whole body felt like he was sinking into a quagmire.
Can't get stronger.
Under Stella's pressure, he was making rapid progress and making progress like a duck in water.
But at this moment, he seemed to have touched unknown and terrible shackles.
“Rumble, rumble—!”
In a trance.
A huge stone door appeared in front of him. There were no carvings on the door, only an unknown simplicity and a heaviness like a star.
It's as if if you want to open that door, you have to be the enemy of the star itself!
But no matter how difficult it is, we can’t stand still here!
He made up his mind and stepped forward immediately.
"Click, click, click!"
Chains were used from all directions to lock his limbs, preventing him from moving at all.
Fate was holding him back.
"Move!"
Kurogane Ikki roared angrily.
"Move!"
But the chain didn't move.
He couldn't even reach the ancient door.
"how come……"
Kurogane Ikki gradually despaired.
He didn't know what was going on.
I just know that if I don't open this door, I will be stuck here forever.
But that door was extremely strong, and the chains wrapped around his limbs made it impossible for him to move, and he couldn't even swing a knife out!
As his heart gradually despaired, the huge stone door moved away from his eyes little by little.
"If you want to break through that stone door, you must meet two conditions!"
Edwards' eyes were also fixed on Kurogane Ikki.
That was her master's great-grandson, so she was naturally concerned.
"The first is to exhaust one's potential, reach the limit, and reach the point where there is no further progress. The second is also the most critical and difficult point that blocks countless people from the door - to have even if you have to fight against fate, I also want to set foot on a higher realm, with an extremely firm will!"
Many people have achieved the first point, and precisely because they have achieved it, they have encountered that extremely solid bottleneck.
The most critical point is the second point.
Strong will!
The will to fight against fate!
Even fate must be defeated, who else's will than mine!
Without such a strong will, it would be impossible to break the blockade of Shimen!
You must have this kind of will to break the blockade of fate and jump to the outside of fate, not in the cause and effect.
That kind of existence is called "immortal" in China, "superman" in Amei, and in all the alliance's participating countries, it is called - "devil"!
It is this extremely harsh condition that has blocked countless swordsmen on the inside of their destiny and stopped before the devil.
"Black Iron Boy has only learned the preliminary Sword of Wings and has already reached the limit. This shows that his potential is far inferior to that of the little boy."
Nango Torajiro sighed.
"But it is precisely because his potential is lower that it is easier to reach the limit and easier to come into contact with the existence of the devil!"
The higher your potential, the stronger you can become within the limits of fate!
Like Jiang Li, he was able to learn the complete Biyi Sword because, in the judgment of fate, Jiang Li could have reached this level with his potential.
The criterion for judging this potential is generally magic power.
The more magic you have, the more potential you have, and the more lenient your fate will be.
The lower the magic, the less potential, and the stricter destiny is on you.
In view of this, Stella is the darling of fate, no different from her biological daughter.
As long as she wants to become stronger, she can constantly surpass herself. Her potential is far higher than that of more than 7 billion people in the world, and even Biyi is not as good as her!
Kurogane Ikki is the complete opposite. He is the least favored by fate and is a real trash who is despised.
"Ikki will definitely be defeated now!"
There seemed to be a divine light spreading in Jiang Li's eyes.
The eyes that focused so much energy, just watching made Tōdō Touka feel a tingling sensation all over his body.
"Unless he can transcend himself and break through to a stronger realm!"
He was muttering to himself, saying words that Dongtang Daohua couldn't understand.
There was a strong light of expectation in his eyes, and the excitement surprised Todo Touka.
bring it on!
Come show me!
How do you break that barrier?
"Defeat is inevitable...?"
As the real person involved in this battle, Kuroyuki Ikki's feeling was particularly strong at this moment.
After the evolution stopped, he fell into an overwhelming disadvantage, but Stella's attacks became stronger and stronger, and it gradually became extremely difficult for him to resist.
There are only ten seconds left for One-Sword Shura.
Ten seconds passed, and the dozens of times of increase disappeared. I was afraid that he would be defeated in an instant.
"Defeat?"
Kurogane Ikki's eyes suddenly widened.
"No, how can this be allowed to happen?"
In the past six months, he had lived a much more fulfilling life than in the past sixteen years.
In the past sixteen years, he really did not love his father or his mother. He had no way to learn swordsmanship. He could only keep traveling around the country and learn skills from his opponents by playing in gyms. Thanks to this As a result, I have been admitted to the hospital countless times, suffered fractures, muscle injuries, and organ injuries. I don’t know how many times these injuries have occurred!
He finally got the opportunity this year. As long as he becomes the champion, he can make his debut. He also gained a good friend who can learn swordsmanship without any grudges and has been helped by him many times!
The most important thing is that he has Stella.
Countless times of mutual encouragement, countless promises to stand at the top of the Blade Knight together, to share the joy together... There were countless promises that stirred his heart!
"How can we stagnate here!"
Kurogane Ikki roared angrily.
Strong anger, determination, and unwillingness made his face look extremely ferocious.
How could you betray the expectations of your best friend?
How could you betray yourself who had suffered so much in the past?
More importantly, how could you betray your agreement with Stella?
"Click!"
The indestructible chain shattered at this moment!
"Hell Dragon Jaws!"
The huge flaming dragon head rushed over and knocked Kurogane Ikki away instantly.
"That boy!"
But at the same time.
Nango Torajiro's hand on the crutch trembled violently, and his wrinkled old face was full of shock.
Even Edwys couldn't help but express surprise.
"What's different?"
Jiang Li, who was sitting in the audience, seemed to have some realization at this moment.
