It's possible to practice magic this way, right?

At night, Lin Li successfully stopped the war pattern. After confirming that Val was asleep, he quietly came to the backyard and began to practice Tai Chi impatiently, over and over again. He did not feel the magic entering his body directly like in the afternoon. Lin Li guessed that this might be the reason why the war pattern stopped working. The war pattern should also have the function of enhancing the perception of magic. But Lin Li did not give up and continued to practice Tai Chi.

The sky was already slightly white, but Lin Li still did not stop. Suddenly, Lin Li felt a trace of magic power slowly gathering in his dantian with his breathing. Lin Li cried with joy, and tears immediately flowed down his face. It seems that the novels in the previous life are not all lies. Dantian can indeed store energy such as spiritual energy and magic power.

It was already dawn, and while his parents were still asleep, Lin Li quietly returned to his room. Although he had been practicing Tai Chi all night, he was so excited that he didn't feel sleepy at all. After a short rest, he went to the backyard to do morning exercises with Val who had already gotten up. Lin Li was still controlling his magic power in his heart to isolate his body from the battle pattern, and now he was just pretending in front of Val.

After breakfast, I went to the Viscount's Mansion to study with Luca and his sister as usual. As soon as the get out of class was over, I hurried home.

Luca looked at the anxious Lin Li and said, "Did something happen to him these past two days? He ran away after class without even saying hello. I wanted to ask him to practice with me."

Eudora looked at her brother and said with a smile, "Maybe he is about to break through to the intermediate level, so he wants to hurry up so that he can bully you every day before you break through."

"Damn, so that's how it is. No, I have to hurry up and practice to break through. I can't let him outsmart me."

Lin Li ran home and found no one at home. After the excitement wore off, he started to feel sleepy. He was so sleepy during class that he fell asleep on the bed when he got home. That was until Celis called him for dinner.

Lin Li quietly got up in the middle of the night and went to the backyard to practice Tai Chi. He decided to suspend the practice of the battle pattern first, so that more magic power can be stored in the Dantian, and then practice the battle pattern. At that time, the connection between the Dantian and the battle pattern can be directly opened up by combining internal and external forces.

This training lasted for a month. As Lin Li continued to practice, he also tried to use the magic power of Dantian to fight. He found that there was a huge difference in the use of the magic power of Dantian and the magic power in the previous battle pattern.

The battle pattern training method uses magic to strengthen the body. When fighting, magic is consumed to increase the body's strength. Even if a high-level warrior can use elemental combat skills, magic is only used to drive the elements to release combat skills. The same is true for legendary warriors. Magic is just a driver.

But the magic power mobilized from Dantian is different. It flows through the meridians and can directly act on attack and defense. Although Lin Li cannot release it to attack through the air, he can transfer the magic power to other objects through contact to destroy them. Of course, there is not much magic power in Dantian now, so it can only crack small stones.

After finishing teacher Chris's class today, Lin Li was about to go home when Luka stopped him. "Today you said you must practice with me no matter what. We haven't practiced for a month. You always say you have something to do. What haven't you finished yet?"

Lin Li thought that he would have to reactivate the battle pattern when he returned home today, so he replied, "I really have something to do. How about next time? I will definitely practice with you next time."

“No, it has to be today.” Luca refused to let go.

At this time, Eudora also came over and said, "Come on, I asked the chef to make your favorite dishes today. Don't refuse."

Lin Li saw that he really couldn't refuse and could only say "Okay."

After dinner, in the training room of the Viscount's Mansion, Lin Li and Luca had already picked up their wooden swords and were ready. At this time, Luca said, "Lin Li, you'd better be careful today." After saying that, he raised his sword and rushed forward.

Now Lin Li only has a little magic power in his Dantian, and his battle patterns are empty. Facing Luca's powerful attack, he can only hold on with difficulty. After a few moves, he can't stand it anymore.

"You're not doing well today. Didn't you eat a lot at lunch? Why are you so weak now? You've regressed in the past month. You're not as strong as before."

Hearing Luca's words, Lin Li thought to himself that there was no magic in my battle pattern. But he still said stubbornly, "Can't you see that I'm letting you?"

"Thank you so much, if you let me go again I will make sure your butt is bruised and battered."

Eudora, who was sitting at the side, waved the dessert in her hand and said, "Come on, Lin Li, if you win, I'll give you something delicious. I'm telling you, I'm well prepared today."

This won't work. If it goes on like this, he won't be able to survive for ten moves. He must find a way, but he doesn't dare to call on the magic power of Dantian to fight. The speed at which Dantian gathers magic power is much slower than that of the battle pattern. He is afraid that if he accidentally uses too much, it will not be enough to "open the door", and Lin Li has never used this Dantian magic power to fight.

At this time, Luka slashed with his sword, but the speed was too fast and Lin Li had no time to dodge, so he could only raise his sword to block. He barely blocked the attack. Because he didn't have magic to increase his body, his strength was much worse, and he was unstable and took two steps back. Seeing this opportunity, Luka followed up with a horizontal slash. Lin Li could only raise his sword to block it again. With a "snap", the wooden sword in his hand flew out, and he took two steps back again, having already lost his balance. At this time, the door was wide open, so how could Luka give up such an opportunity? He followed up with a straight stab.

Seeing that he was about to be hit, Lin Li barely dodged the sword by turning sideways, then he took a deep breath as if by reflex, sank his qi into his dantian, and stood in a horse stance to steady his body. He stretched out his left hand to grasp Luca's right wrist, and took advantage of the force of Luca's stab and took a big step back. At this time, Luca's old strength was exhausted and his new strength had not yet been generated, so he was directly lifted off the ground by Lin Li. Lin Li saw the opportunity and stepped forward with his right hand to grab Luca's collar, and used the force to throw him over his shoulder. With a "bang", Luca was thrown heavily to the ground.

"Ouch, my butt!" Luca cried out in pain.

"Brother, you are so stupid. You were about to win but were overturned in an instant. I wonder if there are flowers with four petals?" Eudora laughed without caring about her image.

"I was careless for a moment and didn't dodge." He immediately stood up, rubbed his butt, and said, "Let's do it again. I'm going to be serious this time."

Lin Li was also stunned at this time. This was actually the application of Tai Chi. He actually used it unintentionally. Oh, isn't Tai Chi about using softness to overcome hardness and using weakness to defeat strength? Now the enemy is strong and I am weak, there is no better way to fight than Tai Chi. Thinking of this, Lin Li did not pick up his sword again. He took a horse stance, stretched out his hands and directly took a stance and said, "Come on, let me show you the boxing I have practiced recently."

"Boxing? Stop bragging. I've never seen you practice boxing. I just didn't notice it just now." Luca looked unconvinced. Seeing that Lin Lizhen didn't take the sword, he asked in confusion, "No way, are you serious?"

Lin Li said confidently, "That can't be false, come on."
