< Episode 94: Extreme Sword (2) >
Same time.
Geomgok (劍谷) of Yeonggeom Mountain Lodge.
“Only the sword can discuss the extreme.”
Gok-oh’s expression hardened as he was cut off by the man’s words full of arrogance.
Like most of the people gathered here in Geomgok the sacred place of swords he also had a strong sense of pride in his sword.
However this person’s martial arts technique just now was the essence of kwae (快) something I’ve never seen before.
I was speechless because there was no unnecessary work at all.
‘…amazing.’
‘I couldn’t even see it.’
This was the same for most of the swordsmen gathered in front of the split kendo kengeuk monument.
They too could not help but be astonished by the work of this unknown person.
Then someone shouted.
“You are the one who killed the head of the Namgung family and the elites of the Namgung family!”
‘!!!!!’
At that shout everyone’s eyes turned to the owner of the voice.
The owner of the voice was none other than Jeong Myeong-sae an elder of the Hangshan Sect and dispatched as an investigator for the Justice League.
She was convinced the moment she saw her man’s amazing work.
‘That’s it!’
Among the remains of the deceased members of the Namgung family there was also a trace of Kwaedo.
She was also an excellent expert so I was able to picture some of her injuries in my head as I looked at her wounds.
‘…Was it actually possible?’
Many of the demons remaining in the wound were so bizarre that one wondered if they could be embodied in a human body.
Dochos go beyond the limits of their muscles and joints.
To realize this it was judged impossible to do anything other than the Igido method of dealing with the Tao as a Ki.
However someone who embodied one of them appeared.
This meant that the real culprit of the Namgungse disaster had revealed himself.
“He killed the head of the Namgung family…?”
“You did that by yourself?”
The crowd was in an uproar.
The guests in Geogok were those who had stayed here for at least a few months.
Therefore they only knew that an accident occurred outside Yeonggeom Lodge and did not know specifically what happened.
However when I found out about this due to the outcry about the Jeongmyeong incident I couldn’t help but be shocked.
The head of the Namgung family was the highest figure in the martial arts world receiving the title of Eight Stars.
But this person single-handedly annihilated the elites of the Namgung family including him?
‘…It’s a monster.’
Truly the human heart was deceitful.
They were angry because they entered Geogok a sacred place for swords and cut down the tombstone of the former chieftain.
However when they found out what this person had done their anger subsided and they were instantly overcome by tension and fear.
But there was someone who broke the silence.
“Hey you damn bastard!!!!”
-Okay!
With a shout the sword light flashed and the sharp sword cut off the arrogant thug’s head.
It was a sword of tremendous force.
However the opponent was a monster who single-handedly annihilated the head of the Namgung family and its elite.
-Chaeang!
The sword was thrown away so easily.
-Chrrrrrr!
The person who threw the sword was pushed back about six paces.
He was just out of town.
-Gurgling! Sigh!
Jieu wiped the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve.
Everyone felt intimidated by the opponent’s strength and didn’t know what to do but Jiue’s anger was soaring that his eyes were burning brightly.
The monk showed interest in seeing him like this.
“Did you save your fighting spirit? “It’s pretty good.”
“quite? Don’t say anything funny. It was called Cheonilchang (千日槍) and Mangeom (萬日劍). “A person who does not even know the depth of the sword dares to discuss the play in terms of the Tao.”
“What about Tao?”
Soon the thief’s dark eyebrows rose upward.
Gogo couldn’t help but feel embarrassed at that sight.
‘What are we supposed to do by provoking that monstrous guy whose pride in the Tao is at its peak like that?’
-Sigh!
Then in Gok-oe’s eyes he saw that the method of holding the sword was changing.
And the moment I changed the grip method the thief tried to move.
The goal was of course outside the area.
‘Now!’
Without missing that moment Gogo raised his strength with his broken sword and aimed at the thief’s back.
-Ugh! Okay!
Looking for an opportunity the thief who was about to throw a new weapon at Ji-e-eul did not even look away but he lightly twisted his body to avoid Gok-o’s sword loaded with sword steel.
-Park!
‘ah!’
Those who watched him were secretly disappointed that he had dodged the sword so easily but Gok-oh was a sword expert who could be compared to the Palseong so he calmly defended himself.
-Chachchach!
As the trajectory of Gok-Oh’s sword curved towards Byeoncho the swordsman tilted his head back and dodged his first trajectory.
However Byun Cho who came in next was exquisitely aimed at the blood hole in the center of the collarbone of the thief who had tilted his head back.
Everyone could not help but be amazed by the exquisite move that took advantage of the opponent’s weaknesses.
however
-Okay!
‘!?’
At that moment everyone’s eyes widened.
The reason was simple.
These swordsmen thought that they would not be able to avoid that accident as their backs and heads were tilted back at the same time.
However he swung his sword in that stance and cut off Gok-oh’s wrist.
-Changerang!
“Turn it off!”
Goku Ogai who had lost his wrist hurriedly threw the new weapon backwards clenching his teeth.
He was outrageous.
He is such a monster that I am left speechless.
How strong are his back muscles how can he create the path of the path at such an angle in that posture?
No matter how good I was if I stayed in that position my back muscles would have ruptured.
‘How is this monster unknown?’
I can’t even fathom the inaction.
Perhaps he may have reached the level of a great master who may even be compared to the head of Gu Cheonmu the head of the Yeonggeom Mountain Lodge and a member of the Six Heavens.
– Creepy!
But this wasn’t the end.
Before he knew it the thief caught up with him and cut off his own head.
The speed was so fast that there was no time to avoid it.
however
-Chaeaang!
The degree of that guy soared upward.
Ji Oe was the one who struck it out.
Thanks to the stoppage at the perfect moment I was able to avoid being decapitated…
-Okay! Push!
At that moment Gogo’s head was separated from his body.
There was no change in Gogo’s expression as he did not even realize that he had died.
‘Gogo!’
When Gok-oh died Ji bit his lip so hard that blood flowed out.
I thought it was fortunate that I blocked it exquisitely but in that moment the guy spun his body like lightning and threw a kick towards Gogo’s neck.
However his head was cut off due to the energy generated from his toes.
‘This guy’s whole body is a sword itself.’
One body and one body.
It was a state where one could be said to be the Tao itself.
I understood why he was discussing the extremes of Tao.
This guy really seemed to have reached the extreme.
They bickered but when Gok Oh who could be said to be the only family member in Geomgok met death so easily Ji et al.’s will to fight wavered for a moment.
“I’ll send you along too.”
This time the guy tried to catch up with him.
But at that moment
-Chachachachachachachang!
Jieu was able to quickly come to her senses when someone intervened.
It was a fateful incident for the Hangshan faction.
“Why don’t you join us as an overseas senior!”
Jioe who came to his senses after hearing her cry threw himself backwards and then turned forward by sending energy into the Yongcheonhyeol.
‘Eight swords!’
His sword created a net-like net and tried to tie up the thief.
However the swordsman was able to easily block the sword attack of Jeongmyeong and the sword attack of Ji Oe.
-Chaechaechaechaeng!
Without even moving a single step he was only moving his waist and right arm and there was almost no limit to his movements.
We shared about three seconds in an instant but in an instant the incident occurred and various places around the area were cut and the wounds increased.
-Chachchach!
‘It is difficult to guess the trajectory of the province.’
‘shit. How on earth did I get such shabby muscles? ‘How come at this angle?’
Even joining forces was daunting.
At that time the inspectors who were just watching seemed to think that this was not going to work so they drew their swords and stepped forward.
-Sreung! Sreung!
This was because even they themselves could be in danger if the two people who could be considered the best were killed here and now.
“Senior Jioe!”
“We will help too!”
-Papapod!
The swordsmen targeted the back and sides to take advantage of the thieves’ gaps.
No one hesitated because the enemy was too powerful to discuss cowardice in joining forces as a Jeongdo man.
But it was that moment.
“Eight good swords”
‘!?“
-Poof!
The Taoist held the sword with both hands and struck it towards the ground.
-bang!
-Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-chak!
At that moment a resounding Taoist energy arose from the floor split into eight branches centered on the place where the Tao was engraved and surged in all directions.
‘this!’
‘what!’
In the face of explosive capabilities Ji-Oe and Jeong-Myeong’s situation caused a reversal of strength at the same time and each of them unleashed the best defense they could.
‘Four swords!’
‘Yeowonjisun(餘願止順)!’
Jeongmyeong Saesang unfolded the Yeowonjisun (餘願止順) the fourth type of the Hangsan faction’s Byeokwon Seven Swords (壁源七式劍).
Her Yeo Won Ji-soon who gained enlightenment through the writing of kendo and kengeuk was much stronger than before.
however
-Chaaaaaaaaa!
The power of the eight-pronged sword was beyond imagination.
It was so explosive that her new form which was trying to block it was thrown backwards.
-Paang!“
“evil!”
This was no different even though it was outside the area.
I tried to close the gap as much as possible by rotating my sword but I kept being pushed back by Do Se’s strength.
-Chrrrrrrrr!
‘Ugh! What kind of government is this….’
Jieu who continued to be pushed back was able to bounce upward only when Dosae’s momentum was broken.
-Chaaaaaang! Chop clap clap!
The bounced sword had enough power to tear the air several times.
Her ears were almost deafening.
As a result of this bastard’s attack dust filled the area in front of me making it difficult to see clearly in front of me.
But there was a scent that irritated the tip of his nose.
Ji-eul’s complexion darkened.
I can’t believe it
-Shhhh!
The dust cleared in the wind and the torn bodies of the swordsmen could be seen everywhere.
The area in front of the cliff was stained with their blood making it truly miserable.
Due to a single cut as many as eight swordsmen were unable to withstand it and lost their lives in an instant.
‘…What the hell.’
Each of the swordsmen who entered Geomgok were masters who had reached the pinnacle of excellence.
I can’t believe they ended up like this after being swayed by just one herbivorous diet.
-Gurgling!
Cold sweat flowed from Jie’s forehead.
There was nothing to deny.
This guy was definitely a peerless master of the level of a great master who had reached the level of the Six Heavens which could be said to be the pinnacle of martial arts rather than being comparable.
The only opponent who could deal with this monster in the Yeonggeom Lodge was Gu Cheonmu Jangju.
If it’s this much energy Gu Jangju might have felt it so should we wait a little longer?
-Gooooooo!
‘…We might all die before then.’
With a dark look on his face Ji-e looked for someone.
He was Gu Woong-seong the second son of Gu Jang-ju.
As far as he knew Gu Jangju was currently refining the sword heart the final step in making a sword.
I know that when you are refining your sword you are concentrating so hard that no one can disturb you but that could have been why you were unable to detect a crisis.
In response Ji-eun sent a look to Gu Unseong and tried to tell him to bring his father Gu Jangju.
But
‘no.’
As he was about to send his signal he saw Gu Woong-seong doing something strange.
The guy was mesmerized while holding something and that something was emitting a bright light.
‘Now is the time for him to do that….’
It was then.
“That was the strange energy I felt. “Come.”
The Taoist stretched out his hand towards Gu Woong-seong and pretended to pull him.
Then
-grasp!
“omg!”
Isn’t the body of Gu Woong-seong who was ecstatic while holding something shiny in his hand rising and flying toward the swordsman?
It was a method of exploiting the void.
‘this!’
Jieu’s expression distorted.
It was incredibly elaborate.
He was going to send the guy to call Gu Jangju but what kind of variable is this?
-Pot!
Ji Oe flew his new weapon and opened a sharp sword strike towards the thief.
‘It’s not something to save.’
The sword he was performing was his own kendo sword play the 14 Swords (十四劍) which he created to break the kendo sword play.
Although it is a sword that has not yet been completed it could be said to be the most mysterious sword since it was made for the purpose of swordplay.
-Choo! Chop! Chop!
A strange look appeared in the eyes of the thief who was unfolding a hollow attack in such an alien situation.
The swordsman soon released his hold on the air and spun his sword around to catch Jieue’s sword.
-Chaechaechaechaechae!
The clash between the sword and the sword was so violent that blue flames flew in all directions.
But it was around the time when he was performing his sixth swordsmanship.
-Shoot!
‘Anit?’
Tao came in through a gap that even Jie Oe himself who created Geomcho could not have expected.
-Chaaaaaang!
In an instant Jioe’s Four Four Swords were completely destroyed preventing him from even the first half of the battle.
-Chrrrrrr!
Geomcho was destroyed and Jieui’s new form which suffered the full impact was pushed back about five paces.
-thud!
Jieu suffering from severe internal injuries soon fell to one knee.
“Kwaek!”
Jieu vomited blood on the floor.
‘no.’
Ji Oe was shocked when even the foundation of conversion created to deal with the former chieftain was destroyed so easily.
Is this really a monster?
You destroy Chosik who you just saw for the first time as if you knew his weaknesses even before the first half of the episode was even played.
It was beyond despair.
Then the thief approached him and muttered something unintelligible.
“I see. “You said Geomcho looked somewhat familiar. Is this the beginning of this thing?”
“what?”
What are you talking about?
While I was wondering the thief raised the corner of his mouth and said.
“Are you a swordsman?”
‘!?’
Jieu’s eyes wavered at those words.
As expected his reclusism was little known to the outside world due to the fact that it was a secret work of succession.
However the name of the recluse jumped out of the mouth of this person he was meeting for the first time.
“You…what the hell?”
“You’re lucky. Should we say that this kills two birds with one stone?”
“What are you saying….”
It was before I even finished answering my question.
-Sureuk!
The new figure of the approaching thief soon blurred and disappeared.
At the same time a very faint wind seemed to be blowing through his mouth and for a moment I felt a cold feeling in my throat.
– Creepy!
‘Je….Jenn….’
He realized that something was targeting his neck but it was already too late.
It wasn’t something that could be prevented just by knowing.
-Ssssss!
He felt the cold blade digging into his neck.
Is he going to die like this?
Does death come so vainly?
A lot of things came to mind in an instant like a flash of light and Ji Oe closed his eyes.
It was that moment.
-Chaaaaaaaaa!
An intense metallic sound that rings in your ears.
At the same time a short groan and the sound of something being pushed were heard.
“Big.”
-Chrrrrrrrrrr!
what?
Ji et al. who had accepted this for a moment thinking he would die of course opened their eyes in shock.
But then an amazing sight appeared before his eyes.
He saw that the monstrous thief who had not moved even when numerous swordsmen including himself were making joint attacks had been pushed back nearly ten steps.
-Purrrrrrr!
The swordsman was even holding the sword with both hands for the first time and the blade which seemed solid was trembling like crazy.
‘Gu Jangju came…what?’
Jieu’s eyes widened.
He naturally assumed that Gu Zhuangzhu had come.
But there was someone standing in front of him with a face he had never seen before.
He had a very handsome face but he didn’t look young or even old.
‘What is the interest rate?’
Full of doubts the thief slowly lowered his trembling blade and revealed his face.
The thief’s face which had been so relaxed and almost expressionless until now was suddenly tinged with tension and excitement.
The thief opened his mouth with an exalted look on his face.
“Heavenly Demon!”
