My Muscle System in the Mage World

Aur slowly yawned as he rose from the bed, weariness evident in his expression.

"How long has it been?" he muttered, rubbing the corner of his eyes to clear his blurred vision. Despite the fatigue, his mind felt refreshed, and his body surged with newfound energy, blood, and Qi.

Boom!

His blood and Qi erupted with full force, his body emitting a terrifying heat like a furnace, blasting away the bed beneath him.

Aur's eyes snapped open, revealing crimson pupils filled with shock.

In a swift moment of realisation, he hastily reined in his boiling blood and Qi.

"Hmm?" A furrow formed on Aur's brow as he moved his hand, creating a gust of wind with the mere flick of his wrist.

Attempting to walk, he left firm imprints of his feet in the ground, causing the floor to crack beneath him.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, his speed skyrocketed, propelling him into the air, nearly crashing into the wall.

"Fuck." Aur cursed under his breath, eyeing the wall just two inches away from him. He certainly didn't have a hobby of destroying his own house.

With great effort, Aur finally managed to regain his balance and settled down on the ground.

Bang!

A shockwave reverberated through the room as Aur's weight impacted the floor.

"Has my strength increased that much?" Aur pondered, gazing at his hands in disbelief.

"No, I had this strength before as well. However, it was contained within my body. But now…" Aur's expression turned thoughtful. "My blood, Qi, and muscle seem to be overflowing."

He sighed inwardly, staring at the wall in front of him with a hint of bitterness.

"I need to adapt to this new condition." Aur resolved, slipping into a meditative state to reacquaint himself with his body.

All the impurities had been purged when he reached the tier one wizard realm, pushing his physical limits to their mortal peak.

However, that wasn't the end of it. After his breakthrough, he found himself with some form of protection against impurities from the outside environment.

Aur could sense that his muscles were acting as a barrier, shielding him from impurities. He wasn't sure if this was a universal effect or something unique to him, but it was undeniably present, his muscles functioning as a protective shield.

Lost in thought, Aur suddenly became aware of the potency of the blood and Qi coursing through his body, sending a jolt of surprise through his mind.

His blood and Qi had grown so robust that they seemed to take on a solid form.

Opening his eyes, Aur fixed his gaze on the wall before him and rose to his feet.

By now, he had grown accustomed to his newfound strength.

"Let's experiment," he thought eagerly, extending his hand. His body radiated intense heat like a furnace distorting the air around him as his blood and Qi surged forth, gradually materialising in the air before him...

Boom!

An explosion of blood and Qi occurred, causing Aur's hand to be swept away by the blast, though it left no visible injuries in his hand.

Aur staggered back, aghast, and spat out a mouthful of blood onto the ground, his expression one of disbelief as he tried to process what had just happened.

"What in the world?" he thought, his mind reeling with confusion.

In the instant his blood and Qi materialised, a strange, overwhelming supreme power surged forth, one that Aur found himself unable to resist and even gave him a sense of reverence.

It was as if this power had erupted to issue him a warning before swiftly dissipating after igniting the blood and Qi that was trying to materialise, leaving Aur bewildered and shaken.

Though the entire scene had unfolded in a mere fraction of a second, it felt like an eternity to Aur, the memory etched into his mind as if it had been forcibly implanted there.

"What are these memories?" Aur wondered, clutching his head tightly in frustration.

He quickly invoked the spell, and his red pupils glowed, bringing a sense of calm to his internal chaos.

Aur felt a peculiar sensation wash over him as he grappled with the bizarre turn of events. His memories seemed both distorted and crystal clear at the same time, leaving him feeling unsettled.

After a moment of calming himself, Aur casually assessed his body's condition.

"Hmm, my blood and Qi have decreased by two percent?" he murmured, his brow furrowing.

Despite seeming like a small percentage, Aur understood the significance of this decrease. Now a tier one peak level in his physique, his strength and vitality had reached staggering heights.

If he were to compare his blood and Qi to something, it would be akin to the vast expanse of the sea in his former world. Thus, even a mere two percent loss was substantial.

Considering the impact on his overall strength, Aur estimated that his power had likely decreased by at least five percent, without factoring in any other variables.

"Was that rejection from the world?" Aur pondered, his eyes narrowing in thought.

Why was the wizard path so flourishing in this world? And why was it considered the supreme path in this world?

There were countless ways to gain strength, such as strengthening one's body blood, and Qi. These could all lead to the person's strength increasing directly, without any obstacles like talent.

Even without any talent, if one trained their body, reaching the peak of mortal limit was still possible.

And with some treasures, it might even be possible for them to break through the limits of mortality, reaching the strength equivalent to tier one wizards in Aur's case even without any system.

The reason behind this was that all the paths leading to power were suppressed, except for the wizard path!

For instance, Aur increased his attributes through exercises alone, although it was nerve-racking, and the process was slow.

However, it was impossible for common people to increase their blood and Qi and strengthen their muscles without consuming vast resources.

For a normal person, just buying ginseng was similar to spending a lifetime's worth of money.

Even for wizards, the resources required for breaking through the mortal limits were too luxurious.

With such resources, as long as the individual was a middle-grade talent, they could reach the tier two wizard realm with a little effort in practice.

However, there was another main reason as well.

Under the same realm, wizards with spells were terrifying; their power was enhanced while all other paths were suppressed, rendering them unable to fight under the same realm the wizard were supreme.

Aur had a headache thinking about this.

The blood and Qi is also suppressed by this world, making it impossible to materialise them here. This was a feasible explanation Aur gave to himself.

Either way, Aur had learned the hard way that he cannot materialise the blood and Qi outside his body without a medium, even if he strengthens his body to a terrifying extent and surges his blood and Qi.

The supreme energy that warned him seemed like a deity, making Aur feel like he wasn't even an ant, just a tiny atom that would not even enter its eyes.

Aur sighed as he stretched his body, feeling the energy coursing through his veins.

Although there was some loss in his strength, still, after his breakthrough, Aur's strength had increased at least threefold compared to his previous power.
