Myst, Might, Mayhem Chapter 152

< Episode 44 Talent (2) >

A dark red miasma rises from Mo Gyeong-un’s hands.

It could be said to be a sign when the Seomdokmagajang (蟾毒魔掌) is unleashed in the Pamadoggyeong.

Cheongnyeong who was watching this clicked his tongue inwardly.

‘Is it even possible to learn the poison technique right away?’

Since I was like a single person from the beginning I thought it was possible but I never thought it would actually be possible.

Doggong is different from other martial arts.

However seeing him embody this all at once was a talent that was truly frightening.

‘If this guy is…’

I really didn’t know it was possible.

It is about resolving a hundred years of resentment.

However more experience and time were still needed.

The true power of the Heaven and Earth Association is not so easy.

That’s why

-Hey sentient being. Isn’t this showing too much power?

Cheongnyeong warned Mok Gyeong-un in a low voice.

If the awl is sharp it will pierce the handle.

He needs to show it in moderation but if he shows too much of his talent he could end up being wary.

Mok Gyeong-un responded to her words.

-I want to change my method.

-Change your method? What do you mean?

-I don’t think it’s possible to contact Hoeju in moderation.

-what?

Cheongnyeong expressed concern at Mo Gyeong-un’s words.

-Rebirth. Although your development speed is very fast you are still ahead of the late-stage indexes. You shouldn’t be impatient.

-Not really. But I think we need to make the best choice.

-Best choice?

What on earth is this guy thinking?

Didn’t he decide to develop his strength as much as possible under the shadow of the Amjongju?

Is this guy planning to overturn his plan and get involved in the competition for Hoeju’s successor?

As he was doing so Mok Gyeong-un kicked off the floor and launched a new weapon at Woo Ho-rang a confidant of Wei So-yeon Hui Zhou’s third disciple who was embarrassed.

-Pot!

The trajectory drawn by the dark red haze was both exciting and reckless.

It looked like a rushing wave.

“Tsk!”

Woo Horang’s complexion darkened.

This was because when she became convinced that Mok Gyeong-un had mastered the Perm Sutra of the Island Poison King Baek Sa-ha she decided that it had become dangerous to fight her in close combat.

-Papak!

Wu Tiger hurriedly unfolded her Gyeongsin Technique and widened the distance.

Even if that wasn’t the case it was extremely difficult because the poison in her chest had to be relieved.

Since she was considered superior in terms of internal strength I thought she could be easily defeated but the situation turned out to be different.

‘I don’t understand.’

How can she use the Island Poison King’s martial arts?

Poison attack is not a martial art that can be learned so quickly.

-Paaaaa!

At that time Mok Gyeong-un swung his sword and a haze of dark red poison flew in the diagonal line.

In response Woo Tiger raised his spirit and advanced forward.

-Aaaah!

The right tiger cutting through poisonous air created wind pressure with the wide blade of Guhwado.

-Papaaaang!

The scattered miasma was blown backwards by wind pressure.

Passing through the fluttering miasma Mok Kyung-un kicked the blade of Woo Ho-rang’s Nine Flower Sword like a lightning bolt.

-Tang Gang!

Then he tried to grab Woohorang’s shoulders with the fingers of both hands like a suri snatching its prey.

In response he threw his head back behind Wu Tiger and kicked Mok Gyeong-un’s thigh.

-puck!

At the same time Woo Tiger widened the distance again with his reaction.

‘It’s annoying.’

The poison is fatal with just one swipe.

No matter how much I tried to protect my body I couldn’t let down my guard.

Mok Gyeong-un chuckled and provoked him.

“How can you subdue me just by avoiding me?”

‘this guy!’

Although we are angry at the provocation we must respond calmly.

If the opponent is a poisonous attack expert just getting close will put you at a disadvantage so you have to somehow increase the distance to defend against the poisonous attack.

-Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-tak!

Wu Horang who had much more practical combat experience than his priest Yeo Wishen did not fall for provocation and kept his distance even more.

But there was one thing he overlooked.

The moment he was about to widen the distance a sharp anticipation rushed between his eyes.

hereto

-Chaeaeaeaeang!

Woo Tiger swung his sword and hastily blocked it.

What was aimed at between his eyes was none other than Mo Kyung-un’s sword.

-Kiririririri!

The blades of the sword and sword collided and blue sparks flew out.

However Woo Tiger frowned at the crack visible between the flames.

This was because the blade of the Guhwado sword that was touching Mokyungwoon’s sword was cracking.

‘this!’

Woo Tiger breathed true energy into the blade and created a rebound force.

-Chaaeaeang!

Together with him he unfolded the 4th Chosik Jeongryun Domak (整輪刀膜) of Myeongil Dobeop the German Monk Festival of Myeongdo King Son Yun.

The sharp trajectory of anticipation he created created a curtain.

Myeongildobeop has six types of attack techniques and three types of defense techniques and among them the defense technique was the most thorough.

-Chaechaechaechaechae!

The blade of his Jeongryun Domak and the blade of Mok Gyeong-un’s sword collided creating an ear-piercing screeching sound.

‘What the hell is this guy?’

Not only is his sword skills not average but his sword skills are also not average.

If you are a disciple of the Master of the Dark Sect you should be able to use the Tao so how did you master this level of swordsmanship?

It was a moment when I was wondering.

at that moment

-Park!

-Chaechaechaechaeng!

Mok Gyeong-un’s evil sword got stuck between the two pieces of his sword that he was creating and he spun around on his own.

At that moment

-Park!

Mok Gyeong-un lowered the new model flat towards the floor.

‘The 8th second of Sunhyeonggakbeop Bihyeongeunggeung (飛玄昇擊)!’

It rotated on the ground for a long time with its leg energy dug down and kicked Woohorang’s chin again.

‘Each method?’

As if the poison attack and the sword technique weren’t enough this time they’re using such a high-level angle technique?

How many martial arts has this guy learned?

-Park!

Wu Tigress hurriedly threw his head back.

However the trick to non-hyeon promotion was to kick it down as well as kick it up.

-grasp!

“Big!”

Woo Ho-rang’s knee was bent as he lowered his right shoulder.

Without missing this Mok Gyeong-un tried to feed the sword of the island poison demon to his chest.

At that moment Woo Tiger placed the Nine Flower Sword in his hand.

Then he kicked the floor and fell backwards.

-Papapaak!

It was not a situation to consider pride.

If you are singled out here the game will be decided.

But before he knew it Mok Gyeong-un was rolling around on the floor again using his angles and throwing a kick.

‘Sunhyeongakbeop’s 9th second heavy rain and wind!’

-Papa pa pa pa paak!

Mok Gyeong-un’s kick flies in with numerous remnants.

Its power was endlessly variable.

‘Damn it!’

In response Woo Horang whose posture was unstable raised his sword with his bare hand drew a long line on the floor and raised it upward.

Then the fragments on the floor mixed with the anticipation and surged upwards colliding with Mokgyeongun’s razor blades that created afterimages.

Taking advantage of this opportunity the tiger tried to correct his posture.

at that very moment

-phut!

‘Anit!?’

Mok Gyeong-un who was grazing suddenly kicked the air.

Then he flew the bird upward turned his body in a somersault kicked the air again and opened his sword towards Woohorang.

That island

‘The 3rd second Yeonghwan Dojin (映患刀鎭) of the method of returning to the evil spirit!’

It was a method of non-hwanguido which was the solemn reading season of Amjongju.

Yeonghwan Dojin who can be said to be the most subversive of the non-return methods cut Woo Horang diagonally from his shoulder to his chest.

-Aaaah!

“Oops!”

A scream came out from the mouth of Woohorang who had been cut by a sword.

Then he was soon unable to keep his posture and fell to the floor.

‘…under!’

There was someone hiding and watching their fight.

That someone was none other than Seo Hye-in the Danju of the Four Mountains First Yandan one of the five or four henchmen of Huizhou’s second disciple Jang Neung-ak.

She truly couldn’t contain her astonishment.

‘This can’t be right….’

She was the one who under the command of Jang Neung Ak hid her presence and waited for her to be killed.

However before she could come forward Woo Ho-rang showed up first so she was hiding and watching the situation.

‘…Is it to this extent?’

The real reason she hid her appearance and observed the situation was to know the true intention of her neck cultivation.

If she showed any contact with Wi So-yeon it would be an act of betraying her lord so she watched and tried to judge it.

But something unexpected happened.

‘You beat that friendly tiger?’

Who was Woo Tiger?

She was a great disciple of Myeongdo King Son Yun a member of the Five Kings and a great leader of Geogwoldan.

This alone is already great but he was also a member of the Five Tigers known to have the best martial arts skills among the later leaders of the Heaven and Earth Association.

It was quite a shock to defeat him who was known to have no opponents other than executives of Gokju (谷主) level or higher.

And what’s even more surprising is

‘How many martial arts has he learned?’

If his eyes were not mistaken the martial arts performed by Mok Kyung-un were all super-level martial arts.

I think I’ve seen it somewhere before but it’s a mysterious sword technique that’s hard to find a loophole in starting with Baek Sa-ha the King of Island Poisons and his ever-changing and rogue techniques of non-returning.

Each one was a high-level martial art that seemed very difficult to learn.

‘amazing.’

I guessed that it would be a transcendental level because I had been in contact with Wei Mengchen for a while but I never dreamed it would be at this level.

‘…I’m no match for you.’

I guess I have to admit it.

At this level it seemed like he could compete with Ilak (一岳) who is said to be the strongest of the Five Akhoe and another member of the Five Lakes (Five Lakes) Hangpaemagwon Go Yeonhu.

‘no. ‘You don’t know that.’

Even though they were the same Five Tigers she thought that Ilak Go Yeonhu was stronger than Wu Horang.

She was confident that if she were to choose someone who could compete with the late Yeonhu she would be compared to him who was by far the best among the five kings.

That’s how strong Go Yeon-hu really was.

But this wasn’t what was important right now.

‘Did it go well?’

Even so he was a very unhappy lord as Muangeom Wi Maeng-cheon a member of the Five Akhoe Association died and failed to gain the support of Baek Sa-ha King of Seomdok.

If Mok Gyeong-un who was a co-disciple of King Seomdok and Lord Amjong and became a member of the new Five Tigers by defeating Woo Horang comes under the lord’s command his uneasy feelings will improve.

‘You already suspected that it was Woo Tiger who killed Wei Meng-cheon so you kill two birds with one stone.’

She decided that all was well and that she was ready to step forward.

The match was over anyway and since Mo Qingyun had defeated Wei Xiaoyeon’s henchman so cruelly there was no need to join him so there was no reason to hesitate any longer.

But that was right then.

“This was a really interesting sight.”

-Shudder!

‘Uh when?’

At that moment she was startled by a loud voice coming from behind her so she hurriedly spread her steps and widened the distance between her.

Since when has she been behind herself?

She didn’t even feel any presence at all.

-Park!

After she opened her distance she quickly turned her head.

But there was no one.

‘!?’

what?

I was sure I heard a voice behind me?

While I was wondering I heard a voice from behind me again.

“We’ve been watching together since a while ago so why are you so surprised?”

– Creepy!

At those words goosebumps appeared all over her body.

So doesn’t it mean she didn’t know until now that she was behind her all along?

Seo Hye-in was so trembling that she couldn’t turn her head.

Then the owner of the voice spoke.

“I was afraid it would end too blandly so I thought about giving up one or two things to the priests but I think it would be too wasteful to do that.”

‘!!!!!!’

No way is she sleeping behind her own right now….

‘The Archduke?’
