14Volume - Chapter 1
The enemy went on the offensive with his eyes shining brightly..
pababat!
The way it swims while moving its lower body as if it is wagging its tail is reminiscent of a shark that has found its prey..
In an instant, the enemy appeared in front of Joo Seo-cheon and swung his right leg as hard as he could..
Boom.
Movement is restricted underwater due to water resistance..
Both speed and strength decrease.
It was the reason my strength weakened..
However, water resistance is partly ignored by internal skills..
This was the reason why it was able to demonstrate its power underwater..
Qua-ah!
In addition, the water resistance of the rising water is not applied one more time, and the pressure is used to increase the power..
The Water Dragon Migak of the South Sea Dragon Gate also did the same..
The right kick, which he thought would have no strength or speed due to the water, struck Joo Seocheon with enormous power..
The enemy had no doubt that Joo Seo-cheon would be hit on the right leg and fall..
however……
‘what……!’
Her right leg broke the water current as if struggling..
‘Arrogance is another name for intangible evil..’
Joo Seo-cheon twisted his body to avoid the kick and his eyes lit up..
The skill of reaching enlightenment is not as great as the taste of water dragons..
I practiced manual arts, but there were limitations..
However, since inaction was basically high, even if he could not exert his full power, he was able to provide enough force equivalent to Hwagyeong..
Just as the difference between the transcendental peak and the master of the flower landscape is infinitely high, the wall between the flower landscape and the actual landscape is also vastly different..
‘Whoop!’
I threw out my sword in a situation where my body was opened..
Demonstrates the ability of a waterman to increase power by minimizing water resistance..
The air power wrapped around the body of the sword cut through the water and pierced the enemy's side..
‘……’
The enemy bit his lip and moved his left leg..
The body seems to have reacted to the crisis before thoughts even reach it, so the speed is quite fast..
Shushushusuk!
I didn't swing it as big as before..
I splashed up and down as if an earthquake had occurred..
Swish swish!
The beauty of underwater combat is not just martial arts..
There was a strategy that used the terrain, or rather, the shape of the water..
On the ground, if you kick as hard as you can, the wind will come and it will end..
But it was completely different in the water..
Rapidly increasing water flow speed.
As a result, the steady flow of water swirls here and there, causing change..
It was a sea whirlwind..
A chaotic tangle of water struck the sword body from all directions..
The sword that was drawing a straight line shook for a moment..
Meanwhile, the enemy surrendered to the current and quickly retreated to the rear..
‘Wow!’
I didn't want to admit it.
I didn't want to admit that I felt in danger underwater and not anywhere else..
No, I couldn't admit it..
But I had to admit it.
Otherwise you can't win.
‘Let's work together!’
Ssssssssuk!
About a hundred Namhae Yongmundo moved at once..
It was like seeing a school of fish..
In the center of a sea vortex made up of people, Joo Seo-cheon raised his inner strength without stopping like the ocean..
‘You have to move first to avoid getting caught..’
Man can never defeat Mother Nature.
But sometimes people take advantage of this great nature.
About a hundred Namhae Yongmundos did the same..
Attacks that created artificial ocean currents were burdensome..
Even though I couldn't control the entire ocean, controlling part of it was amazing..
As if slipping on ice, Ju Seocheon rode the strong current and plunged his sword into the abdomen of Yongmundo in the South Sea..
Grumbling!
The mortally wounded Namhae Yongmundo could not resist much and foamed as he could not hold his breath..
‘They say she's a mermaid from the Dragon Palace, but in the end she's a human..’
He was just a warrior who learned handcraft..
When I lifted my head, I could see 99 Namhae Yongmundo people flocking to me from all directions with their eyes wide open..
‘Should I use poison??’
A green light flickered and disappeared from my left eye..
‘no. It would be a disaster if something went wrong and the palm tree in the Dragon Palace was poisoned, or if the excited succession from above fell into the sea. Let's stop poisoning.’
net - liquid!
As soon as I finished worrying, a trident was aimed at my neck..
Whirling!
After easily dodging the trident by twisting his body, Ju Seo-cheon drew a horizontal semicircle with his sword..
Crumbling!
Namhae Yongmundo was in pain as he clutched the blood line drawn on his chest..
The trident he was holding in his hand also fell..
Joo Seo-cheon snatched the trident with the hand that was not holding the sword, then threw his arm back and exerted his strength..
Well-trained biceps swelled and tendons sprouted..
‘Haha-!’
I don't breathe out..
Still, I burst into spirit on the inside and threw my trident while swinging my left arm as hard as I could..
nettle liquid!
‘……’
The enemy was horrified..
A trident flying in a diagonal line.
The speed was such that it was doubtful whether it had actually been thrown underwater..
As if an explosion had occurred, the trident flew out with bubbles coming from the end of the spear, throwing away the South Sea Yongmundo Island and aiming precisely at the heart of the enemy..
‘danger……!’
The enemy tried to dodge by moving his legs like a tail again, but it was already too late..
Puuk!
‘Ouch!’
I desperately twisted my body and was able to miss my heart, but I ended up allowing my left shoulder to die..
‘bravery!’
‘yes innom!’
‘Who did you dare throw the spear at?!’
In anger, Namhae Yongmundo stretched out his spear at Ju Seocheon..
There were about twenty spears flying from above, below, and on both sides..
‘They're gathering.’
Ju Seocheon did not bat an eyelid even though there was still a lot of Namhae Yongmundo left..
I just watched calmly and when I saw the window approaching, I turned around in place..
patter!
Twenty spear blades clashed against each other..
It wasn't the sound of metal clashing against metal..
It was something dull..
‘Phew……’
The gathered spear blades were entangled like a net..
Joo Seocheon hung like a bat under the net and bent his knees..
‘Goes!’
He lifted his heel and threw himself away by pushing against the net of spears..
I didn't jump up..
fell down.
Attach your arms and legs to increase speed and head toward the bottom of the sea..
As the depth of the water increases, the water pressure covers your body..
The weight increased by two pounds every three sheets..
But it's no problem at all.
Pressure was eliminated by surrounding the body with a self-defense device and minimized using the hand-man's technique..
Cooung!
Just as the sunlight flowing from outside the water was absorbed by the sea and was about to disappear, it arrived at the bottom..
‘What on earth are you doing?……?’
Jeok Soo-su looked down at Joo Seo-cheon and was embarrassed..
I was just confused because I didn't know what the intention was..
‘no way!’
That was unexpected.
Kurrrrr!
The seabed that Joo Seocheon was trampling on was still emitting aftershocks as the impact of the fall had not yet subsided..
The moment the deep-sea fish hiding in the dark is startled and tries to escape down the trench, Ju Seocheon surges out..
Wow.
‘If you use the sea, I will use the sea too..’
I gained momentum by radiating my energy from Yongcheonhyeol..
Just as the pirate ship's harpoon fired by Zhuge Succession made a hole in the water, it went up, leaving a long hole in the ocean current..
It's not just about going up in a straight line..
I unleashed my inner power to the fullest and influenced the surrounding environment..
Using the same technique as Nok-an Man Pok-gong's Dragon Poison Art, he used only pure magic instead of poison and gained buoyancy..
Also, instead of going in a straight line, it went round and round, changing direction in the middle..
A vortex was created according to the movement..
Like a whale expelling its breath, it became a column of water and swept over Yongmundo Island in the South Sea from the bottom of the sea..
‘There is no way a human could produce this much strength.!’
The enemy's expression is stained with fear..
I didn't even dare to think about avoiding it..
In the myth, it was as if I was seeing the whale itself, the gigantic creature feared by Porei, the third of the nine sons of the Dragon King..
No matter how many schools of fish there are, they are useless in front of whales..
I was helpless against that huge body and Agari..
coo coo coo coo coo coo coo!
The sea filled with calm became filled with storms.
Yongmundo Island in the South Sea could not withstand the thick stream of water rising from below, and was swept away by it, rising together with it..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Heavy rain that feels like the earth is collapsing.
Even my brain was shaken by the deafening volume..
It wasn't just the brain.
Six ships waiting in the nearby sea also roared loudly in the waves and screamed..
“Wow!”
“The Dragon King was angry!”
“He is the sea god! The god of the sea was angry!”
it was a pillar.
A water column that could only be described as huge rose several feet high from below, blocking the view..
Raindrops fell down like rain, and a rainbow of seven colors created a beautiful sight, but due to the situation, there was no time to leisurely look around..
“Yes, people fall!”
It wasn't just water.
The person hit the surface of the water and sank..
Without a need to see, it was Yongmundo Island in the Namhae..
They were distracted by the current from below, and as soon as they opened their eyes, they realized they were in the air and started to struggle..
However, in the end, he could only kick the air and do nothing, falling down due to the pulling force..
puck! Powok!
“Wow!”
“Bent!”
I fell from several feet high and there was no way I was okay..
It didn't sound like a slap, it sounded like it was hit with a blunt object..
It was to the point where I suspected that he was not sick but dead..
“shoot!”
The humans on land were demons.
Push shoo shoo shoot!
The ship was rocked by the waves, but Jae-gal Seung-gye, who was waiting on board, opened his eyes and gave an order..
In response to his order, the warriors of Geumuigeommun, including Choryun, gave the order and fired harpoons once again..
Gurgling!
Bubbles rose from beneath the surface of the water..
It wasn't just bubbles.
Red blood also appeared here and there..
“Is this really okay??”
The Buddhist Monk was horrified as he looked down below the surface of the water..
I wondered if Joo Seocheon might get caught up in that..
However, that worry was short-lived as I was busy holding on to the ship's pole and giving orders to the strong waves of the sea that were about to lash out..
Blood flowed from the arm punctured by the trident..
To stop the bleeding, they tore up the few pieces of cloth they had and covered the wound, and used point blood to stop the bleeding..
‘Where on earth does such an absurd person come from?……!’
The enemy clenched his mouth and ran away..
She somehow held on until the end and was able to escape the vicious ocean current that was moving upward from below..
And without looking back, I left the nearby waters..
Even if I was criticized for abandoning my subordinates, I couldn’t help it..
I had to return to the Dragon Palace right away and inform them of this crisis..
Otherwise, they would all be exterminated..
You could ask for help from Yongrin on the coast, but since Yonggung was right nearby, there was no need to go far..
I must have swam desperately for about two angles, but luckily I was able to escape successfully..
“haha……”
As soon as I put my head above the water, air reached my lungs through my nose and mouth..
With a tired heart, I opened my eyes and saw a cave large enough to accommodate hundreds, if not thousands, of people..
There was no sunlight, but the ceiling and walls had radiance flowing from countless crystals like stars in the night sky..
“Indeed, was the true identity of Yonggung an underwater cave?.”
“……!”
The enemy trembled and slowly turned his head..
At the end of her gaze stood Joo Seocheon..
“Hee hee……!”
The hero, who had reached the extreme of nothingness, let out a faint scream and curled up, biting his eyes and lips..
Joo Seo-cheon passed by his opponent without even a glance..
‘I thought it was really an underwater city where mermaids live because it is a legendary mystical sect... … I knew it.’
It was a deep and wide cave, like an abyss..
The Ghost Valley branch wasn't this big either..
The only entrance was the water hole that the enemy led us to..
What was interesting was that the crystals were a combination of pure white and bluish light..
There are large and small crystals everywhere..
If you look up at the ceiling, you will see stalagmites that are half crystal and half rock scattered here and there..
When I lowered my head and looked straight ahead, I saw a luxurious palace..
Given the circumstances, it was clear that it was a dragon palace..
“Thanks for the guidance..”
The original goal was Ganyaja, not Namhae Yongmun Gate..
So, after intentionally releasing an enemy to guide him to the Dragon Palace, he followed at a certain distance while hiding his presence..
I don't know if it was because of his wounds or fear, but the enemy didn't know there was a chase and kindly guided him to Namhae Yongmun..
Boo-oh-.
The sound of conch shells flowed from the Dragon Palace..
Two, three, four times... … As the number of times increased, the size increased..
Heartbeats sound like warnings everywhere..
They must have noticed the intruder..
“See, see, I can't send it to you……!”
The enemy, unable to do either this or that, hovered twenty paces outside of Ju Seocheon..
I wanted to attack right away, but I couldn't because of what happened to me just now..
Even though I saved face as Yongmi, my body did not follow suit, so I just stamped my feet..
Meanwhile, Joo Seocheon walked majestically in front of the ornate main gate with a red dragon pattern on the front..
Cooung!
Before we even arrived at the door, the massive door split open..
Because it was heavy, it was slow..
Looking at the hostility and murderous intent flowing from beyond the Dragon Palace, it did not seem like an intention to surrender at least..
Boo-ooh-.
The heartbeat sound lasts for a long time and then stops..
At the same time, the door was completely opened..
“Yongmi!”
“Are you okay?!”
“What are you doing! Bring in the medical staff immediately.!”
As soon as the door opened, what was seen was a dozen Namhae Yongmundo armed with armor..
I was surprised by the small number of Namhae Yongmun, considering it was their home base, but considering the current situation, it is not that strange..
No matter how great the inaction of the Namhae Yongmun was, it was impossible to save manpower before the all-out effort..
“How dare a land person come into this place?!”
“go away!”
“There will be trouble!”
I almost laughed inadvertently.
‘So is this under the sea??’
I don't know exactly where the location is.
However, looking at its appearance, it seemed to be underground on some island..
It would be clear from the body's perspective that he swam roughly over the angle of separation, and at a fairly fast speed..
Where is Yongmunju in Namhae??
“Uh huh!”
Angry sighs flowed from the Namhae Yongmun group..
“You can rightly say that your mouth is open! No matter how much of a land human he is, His Majesty the Dragon King of the Dead Sea……”
“done!”
An angry voice rang out from inside the Dragon Palace..
It was so big that the entire cave rang..
“I grant you an audience.!”
“I will obey your orders.!”
chuck.
Ten people behaved as if they were one body..
“Follow me!”
A man with wide eyes held out a trident as if threatening..
Ju Seo-cheon walked along the red silk road without batting an eyelid, even on the frosty day of the spear..
‘By the way, I don't know who made it, but really……’
The floor inside the Yonggung Palace was not as uneven and damp as the outside..
The floor, which is not marble but is well polished with limestone, is flat and wide..
The structure made of crystal exudes antiquity and beauty, making it seem like you are really looking at the Dragon Palace..
When I looked at the details of the pillars surrounding the dragon erected at regular intervals, the word “art” came to mind..
As we went inside, the murals and structures became more colorful..
After a short walk, I was able to reach the end..
“Welcome, land humans!.”
“Is he the owner of Namhae Yongmun?.”
Even at first glance, he had a striking appearance..
Even though he was an old man, his height easily exceeded eight feet, his forearms the thickness of logs, and his bulging muscles were overwhelming..
Unlike Namhae Yongmundo, who are generally in their twenties or thirties, attention was bound to be focused on them because they were old..
He has a long, flowing beard like a hermit and a gold crown on top of his head, which, unlike eyebrows, is missing..
It stood out especially well with the red decorations..
A golden trident stands tall like a pillar on a hand full of wrinkles and calluses..
‘If the emperor finds out about the South Sea Dragon Gate, he will be shocked..’
Not only does he call himself a king, but he also acts like a king..
No matter how martial you are, you have crossed the line..
Even if he was arrested for treason, he had nothing to say..
Even government officials who do not want to have anything to do with martial arts cannot help but intervene..
I hoped they wouldn't advance to the midfield..
“Not only did you disturb the sea, but you also invaded this dragon palace without permission. Don't ask for mercy..”
The South Sea Dragon King slowly raised his huge body..
“wait.”
Joo Seocheon held out his palm and asked for conversation..
Namhae Yongmundo was incensed by Ju Seo-cheon's rude attitude and tried to say something, but the Namhae Dragon King blocked him with a wave of his hand..
“Before we fight, I have a few questions to ask.”
“What to ask?”
“yes. Isn’t there a field called Ganyaja here??”
The South Sea Dragon King twitched his eyebrows..
It was a reaction that didn't need to be answered..
“I came to pick up Ganyaja..”
“I came to pick up Ganyaja.?”
“yes. I need his skills……”
“This is truly shameless.!”
The South Sea Dragon King waved his beard and roared..
His face turned bright red, and blue veins popped out on his forehead..
The veins in my eyes also bloomed..
Murderous intent emanating from a mountainous body.
No further negotiations were possible..
“You land humans, out of greed, made the sea angry and destroyed the Dragon Nine Pillars, thus creating the Four Moons, and now you are trying to take the Yajang and destroy the Dragon Palace! Heavenly Man No Hal Nom―!”
The Dragon King of the South Sea lost his mind due to anger and hatred..
I tried to calm him down somehow, but it seemed pointless..
‘Destroy Yonggujuju?’
Joo Seocheon frowned and thought for a moment..
‘what happened?’
When the power of Haenam Geompa and Nokhhoemun was weakened due to a long-running dispute, Namhae Yongmun appeared..
Under the circumstances, it seemed like they were trying to take advantage of the opportunity to conquer Haenam Island as the forces dividing it in two weakened..
Although it was only a guess and not a certainty, it was a highly mysterious guess..
Otherwise, the reason for its appearance cannot be explained..
Of course, greed disrupted the situation in Haenam Island..
But that doesn't make the sea angry..
The sea and weather in the South Sea are so bad, it's not just for a day or two..
Ki Moon-jin also changes when the weather undergoes a major change..
On the contrary, after the appearance of the South Sea Dragon Gate, the number of man-made quakes increased and the flow of the sea changed..
‘someone is lying?’
I thought Namhae Yongmun was telling a lie, but judging by the reaction in front of me, it looks like that wasn't the case..
However, it is the same for Haenam Geompa and Nokhhoemun..
Not only do I have no reason to tell a lie, but above all, I don't have the ability to come to this underwater cave..
It wasn't that there was no handwork, but it was almost non-existent..
Because of that, didn't you have a hard time keeping up with Namhae Yongmun?.
There was nothing to know at this point..
‘There are many problems that come to mind, but I don't think I have time to think about them leisurely..’
Cooung!
The Dragon King of the South Sea kicked his body across the limestone floor..
‘Do not kill the liver palm tree as you may lose its material..’
It's harder to save than to kill.
However, since it is not underwater and on land, it is not that difficult..
Instead, because the location was different, appropriate adjustments were needed to prevent the cave from collapsing..
“Khriaab!”
The Roaring Dragon King of the South Sea.
The trident in his hand emits a brilliant light and draws the symbol of Korea and Japan..
nettle!
Nothing stands in the way of the trident..
The atmosphere splits into three branches, opening a path..
The destination was the head..
“Whoop!”
Take a breath and raise your sword from bottom to top..
Je-ang!
As the sword and trident clashed, a friction sound was emitted..
The inside of the cave was buzzing with a metallic sound..
The sound was loud, but the power was also great..
My feet were caved in..
‘Indeed, it is of a level worthy of being called the Dragon King of the South Sea..’
I received it as a greeting, but the sheer power alone was beyond average..
Even though I had no strength, my hands were shaking..
“It's pretty good!”
The South Sea Dragon King opened his eyes wide as if surprised, then returned his expression to its original state and delivered three consecutive stabs..
bang! thud! Cooung!
It's not puffy..
Every time it hit, it felt like a big shock, as if an earthquake had occurred..
Not flashy, but fast and strong.
That was enough.
In terms of inaction, it is ranked among the top 100 greatest experts in the world..
‘but……’
That's all.
In terms of speed and power alone, it is not at the level of the Seven Seas of Heaven..
This is the limit.
Any further exploration was meaningless..
I wrap my energy around my sword body..
Water hardens like ice.
It was loaded with strength, not sword energy..
“Whoop!”
Take a deep breath deep into your lungs,
“Kuoooooo!”
I exhaled with all my might and let out a dragon's roar..
“……!”
Yonghu, comparable to Sajahu.
The Dragon King of the Dead Sea flinched for a moment as if overwhelmed by the cry..
Although Yonghu's achievement was not the greatest, it was still effective enough as Hyeongyeong's absolute master raised his strength to the fullest..
My heart feels tight and my body feels paralyzed..
My head hurts so bad.
Without missing the opportunity, Ju Seo-cheon swung the sword against the trident with all his might..
Chaeng-!
A long, drawn-out metallic sound.
The trident ended up bouncing off the sword rather than being cut..
It’s not because the trident is a famous sword or a famous spear..
Even on the blade of the spear, there was a river shining with red light..
“what……?”
The South Sea Dragon King’s face was filled with astonishment..
But the level of surprise was not normal..
It didn't seem like he was surprised just by inaction..
“Yes, you guy! What on earth is it?!”
“volcanic……”
“That crying sound is most likely the result of the actual battle of the dragon gate! Where did you get that weapon?!”
‘……under?’
Ju Seocheon was also dumbfounded by the cry of the Dragon King of the South Sea..
‘Yonghu is said to have been a martial artist in practice.?’
I was about to say what nonsense that was, but I closed my mouth..
‘Eumshin, no, there’s no place he doesn’t go to..’
The sound body was not only collected from Joongwon, but all of Kangho's sound balls were collected..
Yonghu was one of them..
Apparently, the source wasn't very good..
“Not only did they disturb the sea, but they even stole Bonmun's martial arts skills! I will tear you to pieces and kill you.!”
‘They say there's nothing easy.’
I couldn't help but sigh.
Things got so twisted.
“Ooooh clothes!”
The anger of the South Sea Dragon King.
Immediately after the deafening shout, the trident aimed for the bottom..
Joo Seocheon retreated three steps and easily dodged the trident..
But I couldn't counterattack..
bud!
The trident that hit the floor rises upward as if bouncing..
It's not a bad technique compared to the extremely ignorant herbivore..
Take three steps backwards to avoid the trident..
It passed just barely, as if grazing the tip of my chin..
Windows have an advantage in terms of distance..
However, because the movement was large, once I approached, I had no choice but to give a gap..
Joo Seocheon took advantage of that opportunity..
The South Sea Dragon King's chest was empty because he struck with both hands instead of one..
Yongyeon's sword move was aimed at the exact center of the chest..
Jjaeng!
‘huh?’
