Episode 765 Sasuk! I keep hearing hallucinations! (5)
It was indeed a quick sword.
I thought something flashed, and it struck me so hard that it was almost touching my neck. The enemy in front was scared and twisted his neck.
Look!
His skin was torn off with an eerie sound like slicing meat.
Rather than the sharp pain I felt in my neck, I felt relieved that I had dodged that sword. But that relief came too soon.
Chop rock!
The moment he heard a sound like a poisonous snake flicking its tongue, he instinctively rolled his body to the side.
“Ugh!”
But even that reaction seemed to be too late, as I felt a burning pain in my neck once again.
The sword, which had barely escaped the attack, was quickly pulled back and grazed his neck again.
Clap la la rock!
The thin sword danced like a poisonous snake, biting into his retreating body one after another.
Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly!
In an instant, his entire body was covered in blood as he was cut in various places.
The sword, which cut off his thigh and side almost simultaneously, immediately deflected his sword, which he swung in resistance, and rushed into his chest.
The very moment when Sujeok sensed death and opened his eyes.
Kakang!
A harpoon flew from behind and hit Cheongmyeong’s sword.
‘I bought it….’
Paaaaaaat!
However, the sword that had bounced was extended again.
Paaaaat!
The harpoon barely managed to hit the sword that flew back like a flash, but the more it did, the more the sword flew at a faster speed than before.
“profit!”
A suppressed moan burst out. A harpoon with a large game hurriedly blocked the sword.
But at that moment.
Bingle.
The sword, which was flying quickly, suddenly slowed down and took a detour, spinning right in front of the harpoon.
‘What?’
Phew!
“….”
Sujeok opened his mouth wide and stared blankly at the sword stuck in his chest.
‘Nonsense…’
I shake it off.
I had a lot to think about and a lot to say. However, nothing can continue for someone who has lost their breath.
“This…”
The faces of the enemies turned red as they saw their comrade’s life being cut short before their eyes. In particular, the distorted face of the enemy who had blocked Cheongmyeong’s sword was extremely cruel.
“why?”
Cheongmyeong asked, twisting the corners of his mouth.
“Is there any camaraderie between enemies?”
“This … dog like a dog!”
The enemy gritted his teeth as if he would attack at any moment, but contrary to his expression and harsh voice, he could not move his feet at all.
This is because the number of times the sword, which was stabbing like a flash of lightning, momentarily slowed down and evaded the harpoon, remains vivid in my eyes.
Easier said than done.
Stopping a sword that has been thrust with all your might requires several times more force than stabbing. He even shows the miracle of changing the stopped sword from Kwae to Yu (柔) and spinning it around on a harpoon? This is several times more difficult than simply stopping.
The sheer number of actions alone was enough to give us an idea of how ridiculous the swordsman that the person in front of us was.
‘Besides…’
Although it looks very frivolous on the outside, there is no warmth in the hand that swings the sword. The coldness that instantly pierces the heart should be seen as being close to the evil spirit.
Even though he has lived in numbers all his life and has killed many people, he cannot kill someone without hesitation.
‘That guy can’t do it alone.’
His colleagues also briefly exchanged glances as if they were thinking the same thing.
The people here are the best in this watershed. Each of them has the ability to lead an enemy ship and plunder independently.
If even these cannot prevent interest, it is impossible to imagine how far the damage will increase.
“You must die here!”
Cheongmyeong, who heard that solemn cry, stopped laughing.
“You guys?”
“This guy…”
“This guy… The world has become so much better. “The enemy bastards are shaking their heads right in front of me.”
This would have been unimaginable in the past.
“What do you like?”
Cheongmyeong grinned.
“Because we can make it like that again!”
“come!”
The moment Cheongmyeong rushed in like a tiger stalking its prey, the enemy gritted their teeth and raised their weapons.
‘First of all, hold on.’
Although it is exciting to attack by thrusting, now is not the time to think about such things.
The opponent’s sword is so varied that it is appropriate to call it bizarre. If you rashly try to face such a sword, your head will be cut off and you will die without knowing when or how.
‘this guy! Do you think the Kangho rice we ate lasted only a day or two?’
If flashy is the best sword method, then only such a sword method remains in Gangho. However, the reason such swords are not often seen is because swords that look flashy often lack substance.
If you block it step by step without rushing, you will inevitably find loopholes. And their Amiza was the most suitable weapon to pierce that gap.
‘only once! ‘You only need to find one gap!’
Everyone had similar thoughts and blocked the sword of Cheongmyeong.
The red plum blossoms that bloomed in an instant poured down on their heads like rain.
“Tsk!”
If they were ordinary enemies, they wouldn’t have been able to handle this and would have shed blood, but they were just having fun here.
No, if you look at it closely, they are actually members of the Xinjuo clan and can be said to be the elite of the eighteen Yangjiang Rivers. If it were to fall to the point of being struck down by a single sword, it would not have dared to use the name Yangjiangsu-ro Sipp8chae.
Let’s go!
As the flying plum blossom sword collided with the harpoon, a metal sound that irritated my nerves rang out. To the naked eye, it was as thin as a fluttering flower petal, but the power contained in each of its sword energies was such that it could never be ignored.
‘Is it a monster?’
Looking at it another way, the fact that it cannot be ignored means that it is not very threatening. But the problem was that the sword energy that the guy named Cheongmyeong was emitting was not just one or two. Does it make common sense that hundreds of sword energy emitted at the same time all have this much power?
Even the amount of flower petals pouring out gradually increased.
Like rain. Or like a waterfall.
‘If I hold on…’
The muscles in the arm holding Amiza swelled as if they were about to explode. My wrists and elbows were shaking as if I had been struck by lightning.
‘Hold on…’
But no matter how hard I held on, the number of flower petals hitting the harpoon did not decrease, but only increased. The flower petals that used to fall like a light rain now fell like a downpour.
‘Keuuu…’
My wrist twisted and my dantian started to shake.
Although water droplets are insignificant, they gather together to form a river. Even though each individual petal was not very strong, the power created by hundreds or thousands of petals gathered together was enormous.
Twenty Four Plum Blossom Sword Technique Nakmae Seongwoo (落梅成雨).
The enemy forces, unable to withstand the pouring plum rain, belatedly tried to escape. I realized that if I continued like this, I would only be destroyed by the rain of plum blossoms.
But that was exactly what Cheongmyeong was aiming for.
“Huh!”
The enemy, who was making a strong move and at the same time retreating hastily, opened his eyes wide.
A dazzling light flashed through the pouring rain of plum blossoms, and I felt a burning pain in my chest as if it were going through my nose.
“…Kruk.”
Chilmaegeom Plum Island (梅花閃).
My knees become weak and my vision gradually becomes blurry. It wasn’t difficult to intuit my situation.
death.
Inevitable death is coming.
Cheongmyeong looked down at that figure with indifferent eyes.
Although he is dying, he will not be particularly lonely. You will clearly hear the screams of your colleagues around you through your ears that have not yet lost their senses.
It is questionable whether he would be loyal to his enemies, but it was a good thing to be happy that he went to hell with those who were with him in life.
dump.
dump.
At the same time, three people… no, we should now call them three bodies fell to the ground.
The plum blossom rain had now disappeared as if it had been washed away, leaving only the thick smell of blood in its place.
The sight, which is more fantastic than fantasy, leaves a scent of plum blossoms in the tip of your nose that you could never smell.
Meanwhile, cold sweat was running down Du Zilong’s back.
He is recognized as one of the top five masters of this art. Nevertheless, I couldn’t even figure out how to interpret the scene that was unfolding before my eyes.
The only thing that is certain is that the person you have to deal with now is an expert of a level you have never faced before.
‘This is the Volcano God Dragon…’
I’ve never specifically revealed his name out loud, but unless you’re an idiot, you can’t possibly not know who this person is.
‘Rumors can’t even keep up with the reality, right?’
Of course, I thought it was a rumor mixed with the typical exaggeration of political faction members. Because it is the characteristic of those in the political faction that when a suitable late index appears, they treat it as a piece of heaven’s treasure by doing everything they can.
But this guy is different.
Unlike those idiots who can’t even show half their reputation when it comes to actual combat, this guy is the real deal. He is literally a swordsman.
“No need to worry.”
At that moment, a light voice pierced their ears.
Cheongmyeong was smiling, showing his white teeth.
“I will kill every single one of you. “The only difference is who dies first.”
I have never been scared by threatening words.
But those words were enough to freeze my heart.
The reason is simple. That’s because it’s not just a bluff or a threat. The author simply conveyed his thoughts. Without any exaggeration.
‘Chae Chaeju.’
Thinking that they were no match for him, Du Zi-ryong’s eyes momentarily turned to the side, but then fixed on Cheongmyeong. Turning your attention to a master of this caliber in front of you is the same as shouting for him to cut off your head.
“Hmm. Then… who…”
At that time, Cheongmyeong stopped speaking and looked back.
Seeing this, Du Zi-ryong bit his lip until it bled.
It is absolutely impossible to turn your gaze away from the enemy. It was ridiculous carelessness and the height of complacency.
But I can’t rush.
Even though my teeth were shaking and my five organs and six parts were twisted at the complete disregard, I did not even dare to punish the enemy for his complacency by attacking his back, which clearly exposed that gap.
Difference in rank. The sword of Cheongmyeong had already completely destroyed their fighting spirit.
“I…”
At that time, a voice filled with irritation and grumpiness burst out of Cheongmyeong’s mouth.
“hey! You damned bastards! “I couldn’t handle that one thing!”
Cheongmyeong turned around and started running back the way he came.
“….”
The enemy suddenly moves away from before my eyes. The enemy who must be caught and killed was walking away with his back turned.
But this time, instead of chasing after him, Du Zilong had no choice but to stick the harpoon into the ground and support his staggering body. My hair, soaked in cold sweat, was sticking to my face.
“Shouldn’t we chase after him?”
In response to the subordinate’s question, Duja-ryong’s lip was torn and blood was flowing out.
“…You must lead all your subordinates and fight. “You guys can’t do it on your own.”
To be exact, it should have been between us, not between you, but it was his last remaining pride that kept him from saying those words out loud. A pride that has been shattered to pieces and is now difficult to find.
“Bring guns, gunpowder, anything!”
“B-But that’s…”
“Do as you’re told! I take responsibility! “As long as I can kill that guy, I don’t mind anything.”
“yes!”
Du Zi-ryong looked at the fast-running enemies for a moment and then looked down at his hands. Watching it tremble like an aspen tree made me feel an unbearable sense of aging.
‘Damn it…’
It is called a dragon because it is something that cannot be controlled by human power.
It was a fact that he, who had revered the Yangtze River dragon his entire life, had finally come to realize.
