< Episode 55 Exam (2) >
Everyone in the training hall was shocked.
It was something no one expected.
Hoeju a member of the Six Heavens said to be the pinnacle of the current martial arts world and known to have surpassed the Wall of Walls was an unrivaled master at the level of a great general who literally had no rival.
The sword-fighting technique used by Hoeju was not something that a youngster who was only a late-stage swordsman could block.
But something unbelievable happened.
-Changerang!
The flying sword stopped right in front of Mo Kyung-un and fell.
This could not help but be surprised not only by Meng Wuyue the two men of the Five Tigers who would be responsible for the next generation and by Nie Chun the head of the main body’s third guard but also by Mong Seo-cheon the vice-lord of the Amjongju and Hwanyaseon who was an official.
‘How on earth… did you do it?’
Hwan Ya-seon looked at Mo Kyung-un with wide eyes.
He was still polite without even raising his head.
But the sword fell midway.
Looking at Hoeju’s reaction it was definitely not him who did it.
‘This guy is him?’
Vice Lord Mong Seocheon had a strange look in his eyes.
As he also managed the intelligence department of the head of Hoeju he knew quite a bit about Mok Gyeong-un.
This is a young boy who was taken hostage by the Yeonmok Sword Chief of the political faction just about a month ago.
According to what he heard from King Son Yun of Mingdo he was talented with the sword but he started martial arts too late and had no great prospects.
Is this possible for a guy like that?
‘What the hell is this guy?’
In terms of energy the energy that can be felt on the outside is that of a master at the peak.
At this level let alone blocking the sword technique you should be able to pierce it in one go.
But how did you do it?
Unlike the two people who were in doubt there was someone who was impressed.
She was none other than Cheongnyeong.
‘under!’
Cheongnyeong was watching everything from inside her wooden doll.
No one here knew Mu Qingyun’s true power but she knew its true nature.
‘…This sentient being is truly a monster.’
She couldn’t help but be amazed.
That’s right even though Mok Gyeong-un had crossed over the wall and reached the state of Hwa-gyeong the sword technique was a more advanced technique so it was not something Mok Gyeong-un could do anything about yet.
But she could be sure after seeing the sword break twice.
She said ‘I can’t believe he handles morale so delicately.’
An exclamation comes out naturally.
In conclusion swordsmanship is a high-level technique that uses the true energy of the sword itself.
As a result it was practically impossible to sever the connection with Jin-ki the way Nie Chun did.
But Mok Gyeong-un took a difficult gamble.
The fraud that disrupted her energy of health caused the true energy of Hoeju which had been concentrated in her swordsmanship to disperse.
She may seem easy at first glance but in reality it was not at all.
In order to engage in a sword technique that sends fraud outside the body rather than inside the body and moves quickly across space detailed and delicate manipulation is required.
This couldn’t have been done without a truly innate sense and incredible concentration.
‘This sentient being’s potential and growth rate are truly…’
It is beyond the realm of humans.
It was so great that from a close perspective you could only think of it as a monster.
But here apart from this surprise I became concerned.
‘…I made a mistake. ‘Rebirth.’
Cheongnyeong looked at Hoeju with only her eyes exposed because her face was wrapped in bandages.
He is probably a descendant of Bastard.
Whether he was a son or a grandson.
‘With this it’s actually like keeping him in check.’
It was an inevitable situation because they were trying to kill him but it was better to move his body and dodge it with difficulty.
If you destroy a high-level technique in this way there is a high probability that it will raise caution.
If he were himself he could have killed Mok Gyeong-un right here.
however
“Hahahahahahahaha.”
Hoeju who was looking at Mok Gyeong-un suddenly laughed heartily.
Then he coughed again.
“Cluck cluck.”
There was blood in his cough.
Vice President Mong Seocheon saw this and said in a puzzled voice.
“Hoeju. “You shouldn’t overdo it.”
“Cluck cluck.”
-Sigh!
Hoeju who was coughing then lightly waved his hand with one hand and said.
“No no.”
Huaiju straightened his back.
Then he walked towards Mo Gyeong-un and said.
“ruler. What excuse are you going to make now? “Are you going to say you didn’t do it this time?”
“….”
To his words Mok Kyung-un made no reply.
Then Vice President Mong Seocheon urged.
“Why can’t I answer right away!”
“……”
“This guy really is….”
It was just when an angry Meng Seocheon was about to get angry.
Mok Kyung-yun opened his mouth.
“There is no choice. Yes I did it.”
With those words Mok Gyeong-un raised his head and looked proudly at Hoe-ju.
Seeing him like that Vice President Mong Seocheon was dumbfounded.
Who is here?
It was Hoeju the head of the Heaven and Earth Association.
How could someone who had sworn allegiance to the society and been subjugated behave in such an overboard manner?
“You’re so cocky.”
-Sreung!
Vice Lord Mong Seocheon immediately pulled out half of his sword from the scabbard on his belt.
Then Amjong Ju Hwan-ya-seon blocked his path put his hands together and made a sweeping gesture and said
“Vice owner. Please fix it.”
“fix? “Are you treating me like a disciple now?”
“Is that possible? But doesn’t the fault of the disciple also lie with the teacher? So please blame me instead.”
“I’m saying that now…”
“stop.”
-Shhhh!
At that moment the Vice Lord Mong Seocheon and the Amjong Lord Hwan Yaseon looked at the Lord Hui in amazement at the force that overwhelmed the crowd.
‘It’s a ridiculous novelty.’
‘How can this be said to be a person with a deep illness?’
The energy emanating from Hoeju was so great that even the two masters were surprised.
Mo Kyung-un’s left eyelid trembled even more as he looked at this.
It was only partially open but it was truly amazing.
He had wondered what it would be like to overcome a wall of walls and it certainly exceeded his expectations.
‘…I guess that’s impossible.’
Even though he only released a portion of his energy it seemed like if he used his strength properly he could annihilate all of those present including himself within a few seconds not just a few seconds.
The level itself was completely different.
Is this the peak of the current martial arts world?
While he was surprised Hoeju opened his mouth.
“Since he confessed that he did it with his own mouth shall we hear what he did?”
In response to his question Cheongnyeong hastily gave advice.
-Put it around appropriately. In any case living humans cannot sense the energy of the dead so there is no way to find out.
-yes. That’s how it should be.
Of course Mok Gyeong-un also planned to do the same.
however
“The energy that intervened and dispersed the true nature of the sword technique… is quite unique.”
‘!!!!!!!’
Hearing his words Mok Kyung-un’s expression hardened.
Cheongryeong was equally surprised.
-That can’t be possible?
Morale (death energy) was not a detectable energy to begin with.
Because the energy of death cannot be felt by living humans none of the martial artists who had ever competed with Mok Gyeong-un noticed it.
But could it be that Hoeju felt it?
Although Cheongryeong was momentarily surprised he spoke calmly.
-It may be that he is trying to float on purpose because he cannot sense the energy. Don’t fall for it. rebirth.
-…Is that really true?
Mok Gyeong-un was also curious.
The strength of fraud is that it is an energy that living humans cannot perceive.
But if you can feel it that advantage disappears.
Mok Kyung-un carefully parted his lips.
“That’s too much praise. “I just applied the true power of the recluse.”
“Recluse?”
“yes.”
The reason he was considered a recluse was because of the unspoken rules of martial arts.
No matter how loyal the relationship is unless it is a very rare situation the martial artist does not reveal this as it is a valuable asset and secret to the warrior.
Mok Gyeong-un was aiming for this.
however
“Hmm. okay? “However I feel that although the aura of the Lord Amjong has a sinister tendency your aura appears to be quite complex.”
“…”
Hearing those words Hwan Ya-seon the lord of the clan frowned and looked at Mo Gyeong-un.
At this Mo Gyeong-un’s eyes narrowed.
I was hoping it was just a guess but it seemed like Hoeju really sensed his energy.
Although he may have been shaken Mok Kyung-un calmly opened his mouth.
“It’s because I learned several martial arts before mastering them.”
“You learned several martial arts?”
“yes. “I also have martial arts skills as a Yeonmok swordsman… I believe the Lord of the Lord knows the reason why I came here.”
Hoeju’s eyes became strange at these words.
This was because he immediately understood the meaning of what Mok Kyung-un said.
The inspection of the month (月).
He read the cursed secret book that no one could learn.
Hoeju who remembered this chuckled and then turned around and spoke.
“I wanted to see you at least once but I guess this is why you were chosen for that level.”
“yes?”
“Shall we take another look?”
With those words Hoeju nodded.
Then the sword that had fallen on the floor rushed towards Mok Kyung-un.
-Just avoid it!
The young man shouted.
However Mok Gyeong-un had different thoughts.
I think we need to know for sure whether this is Hoe-ju thinking of himself or whether he really senses energy.
This was because it was doubtful that they would conduct tests in succession like this if they had truly sensed death.
That’s why
-Changerang!
Mok Gyeong-un concentrated his morale and dispersed the energy of the flying sword using the sword technique.
-no. Didn’t I just tell you to avoid it?
-no. Let’s see first.
-what?
-I need to know if they really detected a fraud.
In any case if a person in a position like the leader of the group felt the energy and was suspicious it would be difficult to continue to avoid it.
In that case Mok Gyeong-un decided that it would be better to check the authenticity.
It was right then.
“You have excellent senses. “If we do that is it possible for both of us?”
“yes?”
-Sigh!
Huaiju held the test paper and waved his hand lightly.
Then swords were pulled out from the two swords attached to the wall and they rushed towards Mok Gyeong-un at the same time.
-Shoot! Shoo!
The two swords flew from different directions and were aimed at Mo Kyung-un’s head and chest.
‘this….’
Cheongnyeong stuck out his tongue.
Even engaging in a single sword technique requires great concentration.
However by using the sword technique from different directions Hoeju had already seen the weakness of the method of dispersing energy.
It seemed like he wasn’t called one of the six thousand for nothing.
‘There’s nothing special this time. You have to avoid or block it.’
Anyway he thought that this time even without his advice Mok Gyeong-un would have no choice but to move.
But
-Shoot! Shoo!
It flew right in front of his nose and didn’t move.
The embarrassed young man shouted.
-Rebirth!
It was that moment.
-Changerang! Cheer up!
‘!?’
An amazing sight unfolded before his eyes.
The two swords that flew from different directions lost their strength almost at the same time and fell to the ground.
Cheongryeong was dumbfounded.
The magical energy of the sword technique flying from different directions at the same time was dispersed at the same time?
‘This guy… Ha!’
How can they get to this level?
It was almost impossible to do without exerting a level of concentration that would split one’s mind in two.
It seemed like he had underestimated sentient beings.
She wasn’t the only one surprised by her decision.
“This really surprises me.”
Hearing Huaiju’s words Vice Lord Meng Seocheon’s eyes widened and he looked at Huiju.
Looking at Hoeju’s bright eyes it really seemed like that.
‘Hoeju…is he surprised?’
Although his illness was deep Hoeju was a member of the Six Heavens the pinnacle of the current martial arts world.
Did Aesong surprise such an expert at the level of a great master?
No it was funny to call him a kid.
By the time he was able to block Hoeju’s sword technique in this way that guy had already surpassed the level of the later Jisoo.
‘What the hell is this guy?’
Where did this guy come from?
He has gone beyond the point of simply being dismissed as a political faction pawn.
Looks quite dangerous….
-Park!
It was then.
-thud!
Suddenly Hoeju’s new form appeared in front of Mok Kyung-un.
Hoeju placed his hand on the shoulder of Mok Gyeong-un who was kneeling on one of his knees.
-Sigh!
‘I missed the move.’
It was Mok Gyeong-un who had reached the state of Hwagyeong and was confident that he could handle a certain speed as he had learned the Myeonghyeonsuwolbo (明顯水越步) of Grand Duke Na Yulyang and was able to move at ultra-high speeds.
However Hoeju’s light technique was completely different from Myeonghyeonsuwolbo.
There was a movement as if something was pulling the space.
furthermore
‘This?’
The floor caved in around the soles of Hoeju’s feet.
How can such a weighty walking technique have such speed?
It was a moment when I was wondering.
-Paaaaaaaa!
‘Sigh!’
At that moment Mok Gyeong-un frowned and looked at Hoe-ju.
A surge of energy penetrating through the shoulder.
It was like rough waves crashing in the ocean.
Normally if you infuse energy into the other person’s body you could get hurt so you would approach cautiously but right now Hoeju was not like that at all.
-Wow!
Huaizu’s vast internal energy was trying to destroy his body.
If you ignore it your heart could rupture and your life could be in danger.
In the end I had no choice but to fight back.
Mok Gyeong-un generated death energy and dispersed the energy of Huaiju that surged through his body like a wave.
-Shoooooooo!
If it had a similar level of energy it would have easily dispersed.
However the true nature of Hoeju which had overcome the walls of walls and reached the state of Hyeongyeong was at a level that even Mokgyeongun who had reached the state of Hwagyeong could not approach.
The incoming magic was so vast that even fraud could not disperse it all.
-Tutuk! Tootuk!
The clothes especially around the shoulders were stained with blood.
It was because the blood vessel burst.
-Wow!
Mo Gyeong-un gritted his teeth.
If it was difficult to buy there was only one way.
‘You have to let it go.’
Mok Gyeong-un did not force the energy coming through the shoulder and directed it to the Yongcheon acupuncture point on the sole of the foot.
Then
-Blah blah blah! Quad deuk!
The stone floor of the training hall cracked and soon the aftereffects of the true spirit rose.
“Hoo. Let the energy flow. It’s pretty good. “If I do this will I be able to let this go too?”
-Shhhh!
At that moment the spirit of Hoeju became stronger.
A surge of energy that was twice as much as before was rushing in.
‘Hmph.’
At this Mo Kyung-un’s face turned red and soon his veins began to protrude.
It has already reached a point where the load on the body is heavy.
If I continued like this I might become a wreck or even die.
For reference Hwan Ya-seon the head of Amjong who was watching this eventually came forward.
“Hoeju! “Stop now…”
“Please don’t come forward.”
Vice-lord Mong Seo-cheon stopped him.
If Hoeju decides to kill him no one can object.
Even if it is Lord Amjong the teacher of wood cultivation.
‘How did this happen?’
Amjongju Hwan Ya-seon was restless.
Although Mok Gyeong-un was his disciple he was no different from a member of Baehwagyo.
I couldn’t lose him in a place like this.
however
-Park!
At that time Hoeju took his hand off Mok Gyeong-un’s shoulder.
No sooner had he removed his hand than Mok Gyeong-un whose internal wounds were so severe fell to his knees on the floor vomiting blood.
-thud!
Hoeju who was looking down at this neck cultivation stuck out his tongue.
He was so aggressive that all the blood vessels in his body were close to bursting.
So I can’t let this go.
It was difficult for anyone to endure the pain if it was so severe that the blood vessels burst.
But even in that pain this guy didn’t even groan or show any signs of pain.
It seems like he didn’t pass the test song for nothing.
“Interesting. “You don’t just have one type of energy in your body you have quite a few types of energy.”
“Haa…haa….”
“My natural senses mental strength and endurance are all above average.”
It was as if Mok Kyung-un was going to be killed at any moment but everyone suddenly looked at him in puzzlement at the compliments that came out of Hoe-ju’s mouth.
Did Mo Kyung-un pass the test of Huiju?
Then words that no one expected came out of Hoeju’s mouth.
“All of this is not something the head of the female clan can handle.”
“What on earth is Hoeju…?”
“Stay still. “Cancer race.”
Lord Hoe held out his hand as if to warn Amjongju not to proceed and warned him.
Then he looked at Mok Gyeong-un and said.
“How do you feel? Wouldn’t he like to become my fourth disciple?”
‘!!!!!!!’
