Episode 1071 Who made a mistake? (1)
Kagaaaang!
Yu Iseol’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.
The moment she blocked one sword, another sword flew in and crushed her sword. And before he could react, another sword flew in.
Kaaaang!
The sword that flew in preemptively struck her quickly, restricting the movement of the sword, and the heavy attacks that came in succession seemed to be constricting her so that she could not move.
In this connection, it was impossible to display the splendid sword grass unique to Hwasan.
Even if the difference in numbers was only two or three times, there would be room for a counterattack, but a difference in numbers of more than ten times would be impossible to overcome. Moreover, aren’t they really skillful in taking advantage of the difference in numbers?
but!
‘Slow.’
Paaaaat!
Her sword was pulled back like a flash. Yu Iseol pulled the sword as if it were being pulled out, leaving a long trace in the air, and swung the sword out faster than she pulled it.
The elite of the Black Demons, who saw the sword flying like a thunderbolt, widened his eyes, but before a scream could come out of his mouth, Yuiseol’s sword mercilessly pierced his neck.
Quack!
Yu Iseol, who was habitually pushing down on the sword stuck in her neck and trying to lift herself up by recoil, stopped without realizing it.
They just want her to jump in there.
It’s not just you who are in danger. The moment she is surrounded by enemies, the executioners will rush in to save her without even caring about their own lives.
The burden of knowing that my momentary error in judgment might lead to the annihilation of the death penalty suddenly came over me.
The elites of the Black Demons ignored the death of their comrade and swung their swords at Yuiseol’s empty side again.
Love it!
When she saw the sword flying towards both sides, she quickly retrieved the sword that had been inserted into the enemy’s neck. And then he swung left and right.
‘There’s nothing to panic about.’
Kaaaaang!
The flying sword collided with her sword and bounced away quickly.
Hwasan’s swordsmanship clearly centers on illusion and transformation. The essence of the volcanic sword is the swordsmanship that creates innumerable changes and cleverly mixes real and fake within those changes to deceive the opponent.
But that’s not all about volcanoes.
Paaaaaa!
Yu Iseol’s sword quickly stretched out again and immediately pierced the retreating enemy’s shoulder.
Quad deuk!
Clearly, their strategy is quite good. This is the first time Yu Yi-seol and other Hwasan disciples have encountered an enemy who seeks to destroy their swords.
It is true that I felt embarrassed, and it is also true that I cringed for a moment. You can’t use your feet, which is a skill, and you can’t carelessly depict the sword of the Plum Blossom Sword, which has been swung countless times. It is a precarious situation that cannot be fully expressed in simple words such as disadvantage.
However, Yu Iseol’s eyes did not waver as usual.
Faaah!
She stepped forward in place and swung her sword like a beam of light, splitting the air. It is an extremely efficient sword that does not allow any waste.
‘My body already knows.’
Clearly, this is the first time they have encountered an enemy who destroys Hwasan’s swordsmanship. Yes, this is my first time.
However, Hwasan’s disciples have already fought countless fierce battles with someone who destroyed their swordsmanship so easily. Even though it was broken and shattered, it constantly got back up and fought again.
Therefore, how to deal with such an enemy is engraved in the body, not in the head.
‘Sajil!’
The sword of Hwasan is extremely strong in battlefields where groups clash against each other, but it cannot demonstrate its power in extreme melees where swords and swords are intertwined.
But these are different.
Basics that have been emphasized obsessively beyond stubbornness. And a series of battle-like sparring that a typical prestigious political faction would never do.
All of that remains intact in this body.
Just as steel is pounded to become harder, the constantly tempered body moves ahead of the head to kill the enemy.
Kaaaaaaaa!
The moment the flying sword collided with the thin sword, it bounced off with absurd ease.
‘Strength is not everything.’
I know it in my head. Power does not come from just using evil. The important thing is to apply strong force precisely when force is needed. If you can know the time and timing, you can create several times more shock with the same power.
And her body remembered the right time and time.
All the mysteries that were almost forcefully instilled are embodied in her body and released.
Suddenly!
The carotid artery of the person who retreated in embarrassment was cleanly cut. And then she stared unwaveringly with cold eyes at another enemy rushing towards her.
‘Look at this?’
Lim So-byeong’s eyes widened slightly.
The difference in numbers is obvious. The difference in power was also evident. That’s why we prepared several numbers. It’s almost like a fluke to be able to overcome this huge power gap.
But everything he had prepared was useless at this moment.
‘You get stronger here?’
There’s no way that could make sense. These are people who have already been trained as they should be. Unless you are a beginner, your skills will not improve rapidly just by experiencing it once.
This isn’t about becoming stronger, it’s about adapting, and it’s closer to changing than adapting. Depending on the opponent, everything from walking techniques to sword techniques and breathing are adjusted accordingly.
It was truly a shocking sight.
Muhak is the framework. It will be standardized soon. So, doesn’t someone who is learning the sword for the first time start by drawing an accurate sword stroke?
Constant repetitive training is the process of solidifying one’s framework. The longer one has practiced martial arts, the stronger the framework becomes. Therefore, it is virtually impossible to freely change the framework once it has been created.
But now they are doing the impossible. Their frame, which seemed extremely solid, is gently distorted and transformed into a frame suitable for the enemy.
‘Who in the world has ever seen something like this?’
The existence of the demon cult and the power of the bishop were a huge shock, but this sight was also shocking in another sense. Anyone who understands what is involved in this change will be even more shocked.
‘I thought I would have gotten stronger over the past three years.’
Since that monster Cheongmyeong trained him, of course he should become stronger. There’s no way in a powerhouse that a master of his caliber would be able to guide these kids one by one.
However, what they showed was beyond Lim So-byeong’s common sense.
‘What on earth did you make, a seal…?’
Goosebumps ran up my spine. A sword that can respond to any situation on any battlefield. Doesn’t that mean it’s a sword with no weaknesses?
Of course, having no weaknesses doesn’t mean it’s perfect, but…
‘At least you’ll never be able to use your skills and die awkwardly.’
Lim So-byeong, who was looking at the scene before his eyes, eventually burst out laughing.
“…He’s a terrible person.”
I can feel it in that sword. What did the person who taught them the sword truly want?
If he had only focused on strengthening the sword of the volcano, someone would have died or been seriously injured the moment the sword of the volcano was destroyed for the first time.
Since I have learned a sword that can respond to any situation, I can block and endure. Their inclination itself is focused on attacking and defeating the opponent, but the sword is more specialized in protecting one’s life.
Easier said than done. I can’t even imagine what kind of process one would have to go through to learn how to use a sword like that.
I feel a huge obsession that is almost scary.
It is clear that both the teacher and the learner have crossed the line countless times. The direction in which that tenacity wanted to go was clearly visible to Lim So-byeong, who was standing behind him.
“Are you too greedy…?”
Lim So-byeong shook his head as if in bewilderment, and his eyes lit up again. In any case, from his perspective, the number of cards in his hand has increased.
‘see.’
With Cheongmyeong in the center, the five swords, including Baekcheon, surround it on all sides. And between Cheongmyeong and Ogeom, Ungeom, Hyeyeon Dangsoso, Namgung Dowi, and Lim Sobyeong are located to support those guarding the front.
The inaction of those standing inside is uneven, but it doesn’t matter. It’s like they’re holding up a shield that can never be broken through.
“Then shall we try to push it a little further?”
Hehehe!
He waved his fan lightly. The good energy that emanated from the tip of the fan went over Yoonjong’s back and instantly pushed away those who were running from the front.
“Let’s widen the gap a little more and create a space for fighting!”
As soon as his words left his mouth, Ogum took a step forward.
Thanks to this, the number of enemies to face at once has increased, but their feet have also become a little more free.
“Die!”
Jo Geol poured out a storm of attacks, his skill, at the elites of the dark demons who were charging at him with terrifying force. Dozens of sword energy erupted in an instant and pierced the attacking enemy one after another.
The space in front was momentarily empty, but Jo Geol looked around instead of running out like usual.
Paaaaat!
And he threw his sword without delay at the enemy rushing toward Yunjong.
The Black Ghost Elite, caught off guard by the sword that suddenly flew from the side, moved quickly and turned his head, but Jo Geol’s sword was twice as fast as his reaction.
Phew!
“Kruk…”
The sword dug into the side of the neck and came out the other side. The elite of the black ghosts, covered in blood, collapsed on the spot.
“It’s okay to say thank you.”
“Just do your thing, you idiot!”
“…Even if you help me, it’s an insult.”
The momentary gap created was used not to kill the enemy, but to help others. That’s not like Jo Geol.
Lim So-byeong’s eyes became increasingly sharper.
Maybe Maehwado Island was too narrow a battlefield for them to be active. How could a mere numerical enemy have brought out all of their skills?
“You created quite a few monsters.”
Lim So-byeong’s eyes scanned the battlefield. Still, the situation cannot be said to be good even with empty words. Even if a few people die, it is nothing more than a bloodshed to enemies like a swarm of ants.
Lim So-byeong’s gaze turned to Mangeum Godfather beyond.
‘You’ve created a hell where you’ll die if you get nervous and rush into it?’
Lim So-byeong held the fan tightly.
“I guess that’s the same thing there too?”
Whoever moves first loses. In his opinion, this was more of a battle of guts than a battle of strategy. Lim So-byeong glanced back.
just as expected.
‘That’s right.’
Cheongmyeong had both eyes closed. At first glance, he may seem carefree and unsuited to the battlefield. But in fact, it is not just resting, it is engaging in meditation.
By practicing fortune telling while standing, you try to obtain the minimum physical condition to fight again as quickly as possible.
Have a fortune-telling breakfast while standing on a battlefield where pottery is flying and memorization is pouring in? This is something no sane person can do.
This is impossible without the confidence that those surrounding him will surely block no matter what attack he makes.
“He’s crazy.”
Lim So-byeong’s eyes, smiling softly, turned once again to Mangeum’s godfather.
Probably Mangeum Daebu is also watching this scene. Cheongmyeong must be feeling an incredible amount of psychological pressure just because he is doing fortune telling.
“Now let’s see who has more guts.”
Lim So-byeong, with a bright smile on his face, looked at Mangeum Godfather with a relaxed expression.
