Chapter four

Physical ability, reaction speed, judgment.

Even though the ideas and qualities were different, the natural, flowing union was powerful..

“The main position is stronger.”

A sword carrying the principles of Taegeuk grazed the nape of my neck..

However, only the sword light flashed and it was not possible to cut by a narrow margin..

Time passes slowly as if it has stopped.

Only Amcheonhoeju moved a little faster..

I twisted my neck to avoid Ungwang's sword, and using my left foot as an axis, I spun around and drew a semicircle with my sword..

And the moment the sword, which was curved from right to left, hit the palm, an explosion occurred..

Kuaang!

It wasn't just object-to-object contact..

Although it is not visible to the eye, the force of the Great Sea, which has been accumulated for several decades or more, collided, emitting a roar and causing an explosion..

“Wow!”

“Pfft!”

Someone's moans flow out……

“Wow!”

Those in the surrounding sphere of influence screamed..

Pap-duk-duk!

In an instant, the ground full of dirt and gravel froze..

However, that was only for a moment, as the waves of energy that swam in succession passed by, breaking into pieces and rising into the air..

The sight was very beautiful, but there was no time to leisurely look at it..

I couldn't come to my senses and was busy retreating from the storm caused by humans, not nature..

“……!”

The cold rain was also pushed back due to the recoil of the impact that hit from the front..

If I hadn't created a wall of ice with the freezing of the image just before, I might have been blown away..

Woon-gwang and Mu-gok each used their wits to minimize the impact..

“Yeokcheon……”

The cold rain furrowed its brow and muttered..

“Heavenly transformation magic).”

Mugok continued speaking next..

“Hoo.”

Amcheonhoeju looked genuinely surprised..

“Did you know??”

“Cheonnyeomun’s Dokmun martial arts and Seoncheon Geombeop are martial arts tailored to women, not men..”

Mugok answered with a deadpan expression and went on to explain..

“Long ago, he was taught martial arts by Somoonju of Cheonnyeomun, but as a male, Eungam-dong Geomseong struggled to demonstrate his natural power, so he devised the Cheonbyeonshingong..”

“That's correct.”

Amcheonhoeju laughed coldly..

“It doesn’t matter what power or nature it is..

Even if it is a law, it is taken over and forcibly bent..

Even change the cause and effect to your advantage..

It's truly a martial arts feat..”

If you were to replace Amcheonhoeju with a word, there would be nothing better than Yeokcheon..

Neigong Shimbeop is the culmination of the study of controlling the body and mind..

It goes without saying that it affects the mind..

Above all, his purpose is also similar..

Didn’t they conquer and destroy the heavens and nature under the name of Murim?.

“Even if I see it with my own eyes and hear it, I can't believe it..”

Woon-kwang muttered as if he was sighing..

“What Bonjwa, the master of Eungam-dong Geomseong and the master of Amcheon, chose was the boundary point of humanity. changed this law.”

Implementation of imagery, Yeokcheon.

Twist and change the cause and effect of a certain law..

“When I saw Yonghwa, I thought it was a mental representation.……”

Mugok nodded as if he had realized something..

“That's right, Sword Demon. However, you were only borrowing the dragon's power. I could not abandon the origin of ‘humans’.”

“Amcheonhoeju, have you reached paradise??”

Woon-kwang asked with a puzzled expression..

Above the peak and the peak, there is a flower scene..

If you succeed in establishing an image in the flower world and realizing that concept, you can reach the absolute state of the world world..

It's not that the next stage doesn't exist, but it exists only in theory and has various names..

“Murim lord. I am afraid that someone may not be a scholar of the Shamanist faction, so I use Taoism as my standard. Even if I am a Buddhist disciple, do you intend to call me a immortal? No, in the first place, does what you see now appear to be a fable-like, good spirit who has abandoned the human body?.”

In order to become a immortal, a sage, you must literally break free from the shackles of the body and fly to the heavenly realm or sky..

If there was such a thing as the afterlife and this world, it was impossible to even exist in this world..

“To put it bluntly… … Yes, since it has escaped the framework of humans, it would be correct to call it an apocryphal world..”

Hwagyeong achieved the pinnacle of martial arts..

Hyun-kyung surpassed human limits..

And the Apocrypha transcended species and achieved more..

It was not a metaphor like the courtier or the swordmaster..

It would not be wrong to say that he has literally reached the level of a god..

“Isn’t this the level of immortality?.”

A dark cloud appeared on Woon-gwang’s face..

It was not a problem to call it a fairyland or an apocryphal world..

Indeed, the problem was the strength that violated the law..

“no.”

In the despair-filled silence, the cold rain touched my lips..

“It's only temporary..”

Woon-kwang looked at Naengak-bi..

“In the end, Yeokcheon is only a half-realization of an image and an extension of reality. Maybe that apocryphal thing is……”

The cold rain made me stop breathing without speaking..

“Come to think of it, I said that next time I saw him, I would first pluck out that treacherous tongue..”

“Be careful!”

Woon-gwang shouted in an urgent tone..

Amcheonhoeju appeared as if rising from the ground..

It's no longer just a certain amount of speed..

Appeared suddenly without any time to obtain visual information.

The higher you reach the level of martial arts, the more your physical abilities improve..

The same was true for the difference between the current and the outer world..

An absolute master of extreme pleasure, even martial arts could not help this much..

“cold rain!”

Amcheonhuiju stretched out his left hand while crying out the name of Beihaigungju..

It wasn't even a sword, but its speed was as fast as lightning..

‘If it's a hand that's not a sword!’

Naengakbi did not panic and responded calmly..

‘freeze!’

Damn it!

Moisture in the air freezes.

The hexagonal grains branched out and engulfed the surrounding area as if infecting it..

Damn it! So so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so such!

The pieces of ice scattered at your feet become one..

The surrounding area quickly turned into a land of ice, a land of the North Sea..

Huaiju's left hand also froze in an instant..

Not only the fingers but also the wrists and arms were stained pure white..

The cold and evil rain protected a certain area by freezing it, rather than Hoeju's body..

‘Bingbaek Kidney!’

The cold rain even defended and attacked at the same time..

Extreme coldness flowed out from my palm like a tidal wave, but it became one with the tension and tried to hit my chest..

however……

“I thought it would come out like that.”

Amcheonhoeju smiled grimly and raised his right hand..

‘got hit.’

A hand was reflected beyond the ice-filled eyes..

A hole appeared in the exact center of the back of my white and clean hand..

Puuk!

The ice cold just now suddenly made my palms become hot as if they were burning, but the flesh split and a sword appeared..

‘stop.’

I moved with the hope of deliberation..

I bent all my fingers and squeezed them tightly..

I moved the muscles on the back of my hand to carry the sword and held it..

I used imagery to slow down my movements..

I had to stop the sword from piercing the back of my hand from piercing my brain..

Fortunately, the earnestness of the cold rain caught me and I stopped just short of touching my forehead..

‘This is the time!’

Woon-gwang and Mu-gok rushed at each other as if they were talking..

I didn't have any doubts about how long Naengakbi could hold and hold on to Amcheonhoeju's sword..

The fact that I could hold on for a while was more important than anything else..

Paaaat!

Mugok and Woongwang attacked almost at the same time..

“It's the same.”

Amcheonhoeju raised his sword upward..

The frost on the muscles of the hands or the sword body did not bother me in the slightest..

There was nothing to see.

As I felt the sword cutting through my flesh and muscles, I turned my body back and fired a counterattack at Woon-gwang..

‘It's me, not the Sword Demon?’

Dance is an absolute master of extreme pleasure..

If you think about common sense, it was right to strike down Mugok's sword first..

‘Are you planning to embarrass me with an irregularity? It's impossible.’

Woon-kwang reflexively responded with Lee Hwa graft..

‘Wait, the direction is strange.!’

But soon after I realized it was a trap..

The sword of Amcheonhoeju was not pointed straight ahead..

I wasn't aiming anywhere on the body..

I was poking into empty space, in a completely different place..

“I'll put that image to good use..”

The sword bends through space..

The direction of the sword that was trying to stab the empty air changed and it stabbed in a different place..

“Wow!”

Mugok's sword, which had drawn straight lines that were so unclean and unpleasant, suddenly swam like a fish..

It was not an application of part of the Ten Thousand Swords of the Long Emperor Gate..

“oh my god!”

Woon-kwang couldn't help but be shocked..

“mi… … friend… … bloke!”

Mugok also groaned and barely let out a swear word..

At the same time, the strength in my hand disappeared and the sword flowed out..

“ha ha ha!”

The purpose of Amcheonhoeju was not to embarrass Woongwang..

Geomcho was also by no means anomalous..

Starting from the distance between each other, the sword was struck by considering the bending angle of the sword through the use of chemical grafting..

“It's over.”

I let go of the sword that struck the turning blow..

I'm not giving up.

I didn't even think about taking it back..

There were no martial arts other than the sword..

Amcheonhoeju threw away his sword without the slightest hesitation and then pulled the sword that Mugok had missed..

It wasn't that my hands were stretched or anything..

Another method of operating energy is the application of empty space substances..

“this!”

Woon-kwang's face became pale..

Even a moment of embarrassment was not tolerated in front of someone who was an absolute expert in speed..

‘no!’

I had no idea that someone else's imagination could be used, so I ended up creating a gap..

“Farewell, martial artist called Sangcheon..”

Amcheonhoeju smiled arrogantly and swung his sword..

Kwaaaaang!

A sword strike from top to bottom.

It looks light, but it is not light at all..

It was absurd, like being crushed by Mount Tai..

I had no doubt that even if the grandfather came instead of Sangcheon, the body would be split in two..

however……

“……”

The smile on Amcheonhoeju’s lips has disappeared..

Also, the leisure that seemed vague until now has disappeared..

“okay.”

Instead, what took its place was anger..

The sword of Yeokcheon and Darkcheon could not cut down the Murim lord..

It's not because Woon-kwang was avoided..

It wasn't even blocked.

“It's you……”

The one that touched the rock was a sword exuding the scent of plum..

“Is it Joo Seocheon??”

I saw it just once.

Only once in my past life.

I saw it from afar.

“exactly.”

I still can't forget.

Sometimes when I close my eyes, he appears in my nightmares..

The one who stands at the top after trampling on all kinds of heroes and demons.

“I……”

On the other hand, he was nothing.

It wasn't even the Five Elders of Hwasan, nor even the Three Peaks of Five Dragons..

He was one of the Four Great Disciples of Hwasan, not even a nickname, let alone a name..

“The Seven Seats of Heaven, the sword god Ju Seo-cheon.”

“Swordsman!”

Woon-kwang shouted with a mixture of joy and relief..

“Forgive me for being late.”

Joo Seocheon answered Ungwang's call and looked around..

“Elder, are you okay??”

“Honestly, I can't say it's that good..”

Mu Gok held his side and frowned..

The bleeding was stopped by point blood, so it's okay..

There was no problem with the pain..

However, it was burdensome to fight the monster named Amcheonhoeju while injured..

“God is behind you, so you'd better rest..”

“Sorry for not being helpful..”

“it's okay.”

Mugok also wanted to help even if it meant risking his life, but fighting while injured would only hinder him..

Even though Hyeon-gyeong's physical abilities, such as natural healing ability, are different from those of an ordinary person, they are not at a level where he can recover instantly from a sword stabbed in his side..

Mugok was not foolish enough to be stubborn in the current situation..

“Beihai Palace Lord.”

“No problem.”

As the main martial art is a long technique, the most trained part of the body was the palm..

All I had to do was block the wind hole in the center with ice..

“The Apostle of Heaven……”

As soon as he continued speaking, Apostle Heaven stood up from his place..

But it didn't look good at first glance..

“He is alive, but he appears to have suffered brain damage from a recent blow..”

I could see blood flowing from the torn area where I hit the stone..

“Honestly, I don't think it will help much..”

The Apostle Heavenly Lord answered honestly without any concern for face..

Even if it hurts my pride, it’s better to do it this way.

“Besides, I also don't have a good relationship with Hoiju..”

‘Paedo provided.’

Ju Seo-cheon listened to Apostle Cheon-ju's words and thought quietly..

The provision of a paedo, and furthermore, the realization of his imagery, may have an absolute influence on many subordinates, but it does not have much of an influence on the masters..’

Domination, which is the martial art and image of Apostle Heaven, is the power to weaken the enemy and strengthen the allies in a certain area..

Due to the nature of the martial arts people, they fight at close range, so they are very threatening, but in fact, they have surprisingly many weaknesses..

Firstly, it is internal..

Even among experts, if the attack power is high enough to be considered specialized, the resistance to domination is also high..

Second, there is a difference in level..

It is possible to weaken Hwa-kyung and even Hyeon-kyung, but the steps above are difficult..

It was consistent with the principle that the expert recognizes the expert, but the expert does not recognize the expert..

That was the reason why I was helpless as soon as it started..

‘The apostles and the universe are many rather than few, great armies rather than great men..

It may be advantageous in war, but it does not fit the current situation..’

There was no need to worry.

made decisions quickly.

“Step back, Apostle Heavenly Lord. I would like to ask you to prepare for any emergency..”

“Not like that.”

Amcheonhoeju was also Amcheonhoeju, but he also had to worry about future events and various other things..

We decided to exclude it for future reference..

“Since you're having a leisurely discussion with me in front of you, I'll give you credit for your courage..”

“Didn’t you just leave it alone?.”

“These are the people who will soon end their lives at the hands of the throne anyway..

I don't care if the order is early or late.”

“no.”

Joo Seocheon gave strength to his voice.

“Even if you are an Amcheonhoeju, didn't you think it would be impossible to deal with five absolute experts at the same time??”

“How can a man who is a decent hero and swordsman make a provocation that is only at the level of a third-rate bastard?.”

Amcheonhoeju responded with an expressionless expression, contrary to his tone of disappointment..

“Say whatever you want.”

Neither Juseocheon nor Amcheonhoeju showed the slightest signs of agitation..

The only emotion visible was cold anger..

Those who want to save Murim and those who want to destroy it.

The enemies faced each other with their mouths closed..

Meanwhile, the martial arts people of each power, who are the pinnacle of martial arts and the absolute leader, could not keep their mouths shut..

“Unbelievable.”

Contests between experts are not easy to encounter..

If you were an absolute master, there was no need to say anything..

I was wondering if I should see it once in my life or not..

Since none of those who stood at the top of the martial arts world were of ordinary status, it was natural that they could not be seen..

So, everyone let go and focused on watching..

I tried to watch, forgetting to breathe, thinking that not only would I be able to see the status of an absolute master, but if I was lucky, I might be able to get a clue to ascend to the next level in the life-or-death situation between absolute masters..

I couldn't come to my senses because my mind couldn't keep up with the situation that followed..

The first movement was Amcheonhoeju..

Amcheonhoeju moved and pinned Sadocheonju before Zhuge Sang could even recite the rules..

‘Oh, like that!’

‘cowardly!’

‘As the Seven Seats of Heaven, feel ashamed.!’

As soon as political faction members saw the raid on Amcheonhoeju, they turned red and tried to pour out a barrage of criticism..

But then, when Amcheonhoeju showed their inaction by telling everyone to attack at once, everyone opened their mouths in shock..

“No, what the hell……”

“What just happened??”

All of the martial arts people who suddenly became bystanders could only mutter questions while being dumbfounded..

Not only Hwa-gyeong and the world's top 100 great masters were unable to properly capture the climax or transcendent climax that is the class of masters..

I realized that being an absolute expert is not an absolute expert for nothing..

Before I could visualize it or understand the logic behind it, the movement was so fast that I couldn't follow it with my eyes..

“Apostle Heaven in one blow……?”

The Safaans were so shocked that they could not speak..

Apostle Heaven is by no means weak.

It is said that its influence was so great that it was a centralized system even during the period of the Eight Schools of the Apostles..

He was strong not only in intellect but also in military power..

It's the first time in my life I've seen someone be treated so vainly..

The Safaans expressed their doubts as if they couldn't believe it, but the events that unfolded later made them disappear from their minds..

“crazy!”

“Does that make sense?!”

“Is Amcheonhoeju really a person?……?”

Even with my eyes wide open, I couldn't believe it..

Some of the group wondered if they were in a panic..

I heard through rumors that Amcheonhoeju was unaffected by the joint attack of Gwon Dong-je and Taegeuk sword..

But as usual, rumors tend to be exaggerated..

I definitely thought something was exaggerated..

“The Seven Seas of the Supreme Heaven are not one, two, but three. Even though the three of them decided to work together, they couldn't even cause a single wound.!”

“Aren't the rumors underestimated rather than exaggerated?!”

“There… … It's a disaster.”

Jeong Sain’s face became the color of dirt..

Abnormal phenomena such as ice appearing where there was nothing or the sword bending were nothing..

The martial people were in despair when Amcheonhoeju, rather than being defeated in an instant, went beyond a counterattack and overwhelmed the opponent..

Any further thoughts were meaningless..

I lost common sense a long time ago..

Perhaps because I saw such an unrealistic scene, cognitive dissonance occurred..

“Lord Amcheonhoe!”

Amcheonhoe was the exact opposite of the depressed atmosphere of government affairs..

It got so hot that I could shout at any moment..

Despair for the government, hope for the dark world.

When the conflicting atmosphere intensified, change came..

“Joo Seocheon!”

“It's a sword!”

A hero of the degree, no, a hero of martial arts.

The enemy and archenemy of the Amcheonhoe has appeared..

“My name is Ju Seocheon.?”

“Wait a minute, that means Joo Seocheon is here.……”

“What happened to Cheongi??”

“What did the idiots in the bamboo forest do?!”

The heated atmosphere of the Amcheonhoe has cooled down..

Hope came to the government again, and Amcheonhoe suffered confusion due to anxiety and fear instead of despair..

I was able to realize how heavy the two letters of the name Cheongi and the three letters of Ju Seocheon were to Amcheonhoe..

“calm down.”

“Even if Joo Seocheon comes, it won’t change..”

“The Sword Demon has a sword stuck in its side, and the Apostle Heavenly Lord is alive, but it doesn't look good. Even if you add the Murim Lord, the Beihai Palace Lord, and the Sword God, the numbers do not change in the end..”

“Ju Seocheon, Ju Seocheon. No matter how great the Juseocheon is, wouldn't it be useless in front of the owner of the Amcheon?.”

Amcheonhoe showed infinite trust in its owner..

“Juseocheon Grand Hyeop……”

“Are you okay??”

“Even though it's called Ju Seocheon.”

Unlike the Amcheonhoe, the Moorim Association could not shake off its anxiety..

It was never because I didn’t trust Geomshin..

On the contrary, no matter what the situation was, when Joo Seo-cheon appeared, morale soared..

Nowadays, no one cares about age..

Even if you look through history, there is no one like Ju Seo-cheon..

Not only was he a hero and an absolute figure in the Jungwon martial arts world..

If you were to stop someone on the street and ask them who they admire most in martial arts, they would most likely say Joo Seo-cheon..

Nevertheless, Jeong Sa-in could not feel at ease..

That's right... … Even though Joo Seo-cheon was a hero, he was still a human being, and Amcheonhoeju was a disaster itself..

I was at a point where I thought there was nothing that could be done about a landslide or a tsunami by human strength or will..

“Do not worry.”

Inside the crowd of political affairs, Lee Ui-chae said.

“As always, he'll do it.”

Lee Ui-chae also does not know the truth about Joo Seo-cheon..

However, I was vaguely aware of how long it had been since the efforts to thwart the Amcheonhoe's plot and stop its ambitions..

I couldn't imagine it being a criminal, or even a person..

A group whose identity cannot even be properly confirmed.

In order to stop the forces that have reached out to the entire martial arts world, we have planned from scratch and worked sincerely..

“certainly.”

“rubrication……”

It was just when Amcheonhoeju was about to call Joo Seocheon..

‘Goes!’

Taat!

The enemy in front of you is the Amcheonhoeju..

In his past life as well as in his current life, he was a warrior and a monster who was called the best person in the world..

That's why I decided not to choose any means or methods..

I thought that the owner of Amcheon would definitely be concerned about something and ask questions, and like Ju Seo-cheon, there was no way he would miss that opportunity..

‘Jaha!’

Pull your right arm straight back.

Muscles swelled and tendons sprouted..

The Danjeon spun and spun with heat..

The source of power, Zahajing Qi, soon branched out from the entire body, circulating in every nook and cranny and strengthening its power..

‘Gaebyeok!’
