Marvel: Killing Makes You Stronger (Completed)

A tremendous roar shattered the air, shaking the earth and mountains around.

The ground appeared as if struck by a meteorite. Centered around a fist, terrifying cracks spread out like a spiderweb in all directions. Bi Xiao, dressed in a coat with its hem fluttering noisily, caused the ground within a hundred meters in diameter to cave in. The blast of air swept up stones and dust like a flood, engulfing the surroundings.

Even the old buildings of the nearby repair shop could not withstand the force and collapsed into ruins.

The disturbance lasted for about a dozen seconds. As the dust settled, everything returned to calm. Bi Xiao bent over, pulled his fist out of the ground, and stood up straight. He surveyed the half-meter deep crater he had created, his eyes filled with surprise.

He could imagine the amplification of power his magic granted him, but he had not anticipated it to be this immense.

Had he struck with his full physical strength alone, he knew he could achieve such an effect.

However, the punch he had just thrown had not used much of his strength—merely a third of it.

Just one third, augmented with magic, achieved this effect, surpassing his expectations.

What if he were to release all his magical power and combine it with his full physical strength?

What then?

Bi Xiao stood there, a term flashing through his mind: City Destroyer.

The literal meaning of annihilating a city.

What nuclear bomb? He was that now.

One punch, one nuclear bomb.

Additionally, he tested his speed. Without using magic, his speed had reached a hundred meters per second. With magical enhancement to his legs, he could easily break through to one hundred fifty or even two hundred meters per second.

He also captured two rats, broke their bones, amputated their forelimbs, and channeled magic into their bodies.

Under his precise control of magic, he managed to cover and even stimulate bone and cellular regeneration, healing the two rats—one completely healed, the other regenerating its limbs.

This outcome was a pleasant surprise to Bi Xiao. The properties of his magic were like a panacea.

It could amplify, unleash destruction, and grant healing to others.

Isn't that just like chakra?

Bi Xiao instantly thought of a person, Tsunade.

Although only a fictional character, the concept was the same: incredible strength, Yin Seal, Creation Rebirth.

The strength was simple; as long as he continued to enhance his control over magic, the augmentative effects on his physique would only improve. It's worth noting that he could sense his magic stored within his cells, somewhat akin to how Superman absorbs solar energy and radiation.

However, Superman grows daily by absorbing, whereas the magic in his cells also grew, albeit very slowly.

And releasing all the energy in his cells in an instant, its recovery rate wasn't slow, but not fast either—a flaw for Bi Xiao.

In high-intensity combat, not being able to sustain high-intensity combat was a defect.

He would need to find a way to resolve this flaw.

The Yin Seal was an excellent reference.

He could completely create a similar Yin Seal, storing the energy from his cells into it daily. Once depleted in battle, he could release the Yin Seal's energy to continue fighting.

The duration of the battle would entirely depend on the limit of this Yin Seal.

Moreover, when facing an opponent stronger than himself, he could also release all the energy in the Yin Seal to achieve a maximum amplification effect, momentarily multiplying his strength several times or even tens of times.

Therefore, the key to resolving everything was the Yin Seal.

Tsunade's Yin Seal was based on sealing techniques she created, but Bi Xiao didn't possess such techniques; he couldn't create them without the prerequisite conditions.

So, Bi Xiao thought of another place.

Kamar-Taj, when in doubt, magic solves it.

Kamar-Taj had a plethora of magical books and knowledge. The magical knowledge in Kamar-Taj communicated through spells and magical marks to borrow magical energy from the magical dimension, completing the use of magic.

However, it had a downside—there was a cost, after all, borrowing meant having to return, possibly multiple times the borrowed power.

Bi Xiao didn't need such a flawed method; he already possessed energy. What he needed was the magical knowledge to thoroughly learn and create his own magical system and matching techniques.

As of now, this was the only solution Bi Xiao could think of.

Aside from the Yin Seal and MAX mode, he had many more ideas that also relied on magical knowledge to be realized.

Bi Xiao stood there, frowning in thought.

He was sure and certain that he couldn't defeat the Ancient One, who was a strong entity among the Sky Fathers and had, over the years, driven away many powerful enemies from other dimensions eyeing Earth, even forcing monsters like Mephisto, the lord of hell, to sign a contract under duress.

Preventing them from blatantly ravaging Earth.

While the heavens might have been exerting their influence as well, it at least showed the Ancient One's strength.

This kind of monster, he currently couldn't provoke.

He didn't want to entrust his fate into someone else's hands, but sooner or later, he would have to face the Ancient One. The question was, should he meet him sooner or later?

Bi Xiao's rational thinking quickly led him to an answer.

Later. He still had time to grow. The Ancient One had yet to appear, basically acknowledging his existence by default. More likely, he was still observing. Since that was the case, Bi Xiao needed to show more of himself.

Just like he previously thought, he needed to demonstrate the path he had always taken, that of protecting Earth.

Correct, his seemingly all murderous actions were actually related to protecting Earth. After all, he only killed people filled with evil, later hunting vampires, werewolves, and in the future, even demons. In the eyes of the Ancient One, wouldn't Bi Xiao be a punisher of evil?

Promoting good might not be possible, but the Ancient One didn't care whether you promoted good or not, as long as Bi Xiao was intent on killing all those coveting Earth.

That would probably make the Ancient One consider Bi Xiao as part of Earth's camp.

Earth's camp, isn't that an ally?

Of course, all this was based on the premise that the Ancient One had detected changes in the timeline and hadn't erased Bi Xiao, which, after so much time, had already been established.
