Chapter 6: Sangcheon Swordsmanship)

Chapter 6: Sangcheon Swordsmanship)

“Ha, grandpa!”

Zhuge Sang, who was waiting nearby, came out and stopped the rampaging grandfather..

“Leave it alone. I guess I'll have to strangle myself a bit..”

Hwang Jian looked at Zhuge Sang and shook his head left and right..

The reactions of other Murim League elders were similar..

Everyone looked dumbfounded or offended by what Joo Seocheon said..

“Maehwajeonggeom We are patient with you out of consideration for your merits, but please do not try to taunt us any longer..”

Gyeongin incident warned in a stern voice.

‘Oh, what should I do?.’

Meanwhile, Joo Seocheon was also in trouble..

I chose to incinerate the blood root system so that it would not return to the dark world again..

But it wasn't that I didn't think about the future..

Of course, I anticipated the reaction of the Shaolin monk who lost the opportunity to fulfill his long-held wish, and I also thought about how to deal with it..

Isn’t it Shaolin of the North Star?.

The political faction is the best force in martial arts, but considering what happens in the future, our relationship should not have worsened..

The problem is that the solution cannot be disclosed here without permission..

“quiet.”

As I was thinking about how to persuade him, I heard a voice organizing the surroundings..

It was truly intimidating..

Zhuge Zhonghu, who was blushing and shouting as if he was going to kill him, and the elders who were whispering to each other stopped everything..

Seeing them return to their seats as if nothing had happened made me feel like I had been transported to another world..

“The Four Great Disciples of the Volcanic Sect, Joo Seo-cheon.”

“Yes, Murim Lord.”

Joo Seocheon answered while prostrating..

“Lift your head up and look into my eyes.”

When I did as he said, what I saw was Nangong Weimu’s eyes..

‘Sword Saint, Namgung Wimu……’

It was like a key that could unlock any lock..

As soon as I looked into those eyes, I felt naked..

‘Ten seats in heaven……’

There are only ten absolute beings. It was the first time in my life that I faced the Absolute face to face..

A change occurred from the moment we made eye contact..

People disappeared, and the desk and chair in front of me also disappeared..

The ground suddenly disappears as if it were disappearing..

The slight wind that felt somewhat cold stopped and there was no sign of it..

Instead, a bright blue sky appeared without a single cloud..

It was Changgung.

“Are there any countermeasures??”

A voice echoes above the window.

I couldn't even tell where it was coming from..

However, the owner of that voice was definitely the Sword Saint..

The voice resonates widely, gradually narrowing the distance and pressing down more heavily than anything else..

The burden on my shoulders soon spread throughout my body, pressing into the soul hidden in my chest..

Joo Seocheon did not reject the pressure..

wasn't afraid.

didn't avoid.

didn't protest.

I didn't care what was in front of me.

I just looked straight ahead and answered the voice I heard..

“yes. There is definitely.”

The moment I finished speaking, everything returned to normal..

I didn't even know what I was experiencing.

I didn't even know how much time had passed.

However, the scene I had just seen came back to me..

“That's it then.”

Nangong Weiwu relaxed his stiff expression and smiled kindly..

“under?”

“Today's meeting will be postponed until tomorrow. And if you don't mind, I'd like to go for a walk with this child.?”

The crowd fell silent at that question..

no one could say anything.

No, it would be more accurate to say that I was at a loss for words..

The one who broke the silence was Zhuge Zhonghu, who could not control his anger..

“Damn!”

* * *

The meeting, in which the leadership was troubled, ended without producing any significant results..

No, it wasn't over..

To be precise, it was correct that it was postponed due to Geomseong's random noises..

“He wasn't like that when he was young, but for some reason, the older he got, the more impatient he became..”

Nangong Weiwu held his back and smiled bitterly..

“no. Even after I said that, I was dumbfounded..”

Joo Seocheon smiled sheepishly and scratched his head..

‘Where is this place anyway??’

Nangong Weimu brought him for a walk..

After walking about half an hour north from the main building of the Murim Alliance, a bamboo forest similar to the jungle of the South Manifest appeared..

“I was really tired after becoming the Murim lord. No matter where I go, it's hard to rest properly because of all the stares..”

“By any chance, is this a hiding place covered by the kimunjin method??”

“Huh. Even though he is excellent at martial arts, his intelligence is also not average. There is literally no other blessing from the martial arts faction..”

Nangong Weiwu exclaimed with exclamation and at the same time smiled happily..

And the old man and the young man walked in silence again.

After walking for about half an hour, the endless bamboo grove stopped for a moment and a quiet space appeared..

The area was still surrounded by bamboo, but there was still an opening overhead so the sunlight came down..

“Don't worry, there's no one around here except this old man. Can you tell me now??”

Nangong Weiwu turned and asked in a gentle voice..

“Thank you for caring me. I'll tell you right away……”

“Ah, first of all, rather than listening, let’s start with seeing.!”

From what you see? The moment I asked that, a sword flew out..

I didn't even know when or how the sword was drawn..

It wasn't that important..

just reacted.

The time between sending commands from the brain to the body and allowing internal energy to flow from the dantian and circulate was only a moment..

Joo Seo-cheon has never reacted like this in his life..

When I came to my senses, I realized that I had raised my energy as if I was squeezing everything and formed a sword cavity..

Jaeaeaeang!

The moment the swords collide, the fetus, who is Wolosamgeom, shows tremors like never before..

cried as if in pain.

The tremor spread from the sword body to the fingers, sliding across the ice and hitting the brain..

It was a shock.

“ ……”

No sound comes out. There was no scream.

first thought is surprise.

The second thought is to figure it out..

My third thought was Daegyeong..

“It's a good sword..”

Nangong Weiwu glanced at the fetus' sword body and smiled..

The kind smile you showed from the first time we met until just now..

But Joo Seocheon was overwhelmed by that smile..

There was no shape visible on the sword the old man was holding..

Originally, it should have been cut off without being able to withstand the sword cavity..

A question gives rise to a guess, and a guess becomes a certainty..

Intangible Examination!

My mouth opened and I let out a scream of shock..

Finally, the boundaries of the unconscious are broken down..

My thoughts couldn't keep up with my body, but now my thoughts have caught up with my body..

“Are you surprised by that??”

Nangong Weimu tilted his head as if puzzled..

“What did you expect?!”

Joo Seo-cheon shouted as he hurriedly retreated..

Sweat ran down my whole body like rain..

The state that was hidden.

“I had no intention of hiding it from my lord anyway..”

I recognized the Sword Demon at a glance, but there is no way that the Sword Saint of the Ten Places of Heaven, who is still more expert than him, would not know..

When I heard that I was going to face the Murim Lord, I thought you would definitely notice..

“Do you know how surprised I was to see you? Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.”

Nangong Weimu smiled mischievously and took flashy steps..

‘Infinite steps)!’

Zhou Seocheon gave up watching Nangong Weimu's steps..

Usually, you can roughly guess what kind of movement the enemy is making by looking at their steps, but infinite pace was an exception..

Muhanbo used this usual method..

It attracts the enemy's attention and changes to a completely different direction and stride when the search for steps is complete..

Because this is repeated not just once, but many times, it is called 'limitless'..

“huh? I know how to respond to infinite steps..”

Nangong Weiwu saw Zhou Seocheon's gaze and looked at him curiously..

Meanwhile, the movement does not stop.

As the sleeves flutter, Nangong Weimu's hand cuts through the wind and approaches..

Hands were a danger that could not be ignored.

Even though it wasn't a sword, my hair stood on end..

A warning was issued as chicken flesh appeared on the skin..

Joo Seocheon moved urgently and stretched his walking techniques to the maximum, narrowly avoiding the old man's hand that was trying to touch his wrist..

“Hoo!”

An exclamation flowed from Nangong Weimu’s mouth..

pababat!

‘Phew.’

Joo Seo-cheon tried to stop, but moved again due to fear..

I took a step back and his hand came back to where he was..

Nangong Weimu connected the hand that had missed the target with Wuhanbo and extended it one after another like flowing water..

The direction, strength of force, and even the use of aerodynamic force were similar yet different..

“Avoid the Great Yeonnineteen Eclipse (大衍十九式) until the eleventh eclipse?”

Even Nangong Weiwu could not hide his surprise..

“haha! I learned it as a hobby, I've been lazy all this time.!”

‘hobby?’

Cursing swirled around my mouth and then entered..

He was making a desperate effort to avoid the Geumnasu (摘韋手), drawing on unprecedented power..

But when I said it was just a hobby, I couldn't help but criticize..

‘Saying that he is a sword master, he pushes Hwagyeong with a gold noodle.?’

I almost got angry at the irrationality of the world..

“Uh-huh, but Geumnasu contains my life's worth of martial arts, so don't be so upset..”

Nangong Weiwu withdrew his hand and unfolded his sword..

The form itself was the Changgung martial arts sword technique that I had also seen in Namgung Jaeyoung, but for some reason, each and every move was the best..

When you extend your sword and stab it, it seems as if you are really making a hole in the sky, and when you try to cut it, it seems as if you are splitting the sky..

The speed was like a bolt of lightning, and the power contained in the sword was reminiscent of a natural disaster..

I pour out all my strength to fight against that sword..

When I came to my senses, I was using the Twenty-Four Plum Blossom Sword Technique in full force and somehow dealing with it..

It was not the time to be relaxed, such as having to use the Fourteen Plum Blossom Sword Techniques for the sake of secrets..

I was conserving my strength for no reason, but I could clearly see my body being shattered by the sword sword spread out by the swordsman..

So far, it has only been shown for about 14 or 16 seconds, but now it has shown polarity for the first time..

The Twenty-Four Plum Blossom Sword Technique originally focused on the examination, but its properties change from the fifteen-herb method of Nakmae Bunbun (落梅粉粉)..

“ Hoo?”

Nangong Weimu also recognized it..

At first, the tip of the sword trembled, but as the speed increased, it left various afterimages and turned into a fantastic sword..

It divides into dozens at Nakmaeseongwu (落梅成雨) and reaches its peak at Maeyeongjoha (梅影造河), increasing its number..

Soon, as countless herbivores continued, multiple sword flowers spread out all at once, aiming for a vital spot..

In some ways, the pinnacle of change).

“The faint scent of plum blossoms that can be smelled from the Hwangeom and Sangeom (散劍) is the Twenty-Four Plum Sword Techniques. There's so much to hide.”

The swordsman, who could not even be approached by an herbivore, smiled faintly..

There was no way the Murim lord did not know about the plum blossom sword..

“lost.”

I sensed that he was trying to test something, but just now he held his sword and held a feast..

Nevertheless, there was still some strength left, but the results were clearly visible, so there was no need to continue..

Joo Seo-cheon, who decided that he had shown everything he had to show, stretched out on the floor as if he was holding his stomach and took a breath..

The biggest defeat of my life. And that too, a complete defeat.).

But there is no shock.

Because I have experienced countless times in my past life..

“already?”

Nangong Weiwu looked down at Zhou Seocheon, who was lying down..

The eyes are a mixture of half regret and half dissatisfaction..

“Please bring any of your grandchildren and ask them to survive for more than three seconds. If you hold on, I'll hold you in my hands..”

As someone who held a sword, I used to respect the Sword Saint, but that respect disappeared after the fight just now, leaving only an eyebrow..

Looking at Nangong Weimu's gaze, which is still playfully smiling and teasing him, his temperament is as bad as Zhuge Zhongho's..

“I couldn't believe it when I first saw it, but even after crossing swords with it, I still can't believe it. He's not even in terms of terms and conditions, but he's on the rise. He's insanely talented..”

Sangcheonjwa also failed to reach the world of peace at the age of eighteen..

No, even if you look through history, there has never been a warrior like that..

“If it's okay with you, would you mind being nice to my granddaughter??”

“Don't play tricks.”

“Okay!”

Nangong Weiwu finished the conversation with Zhou Seocheon..

Only after verifying their inaction and verifying their character by clashing swords with each other, did I ask about an alternative plan for the Shaolin Temple..

Ju Seo-cheon answered exactly what he thought, and Nangong Weimu understood why he could not say it..

As soon as the day dawned, Nangong Weiwu summoned Zhuge Zhonghu separately and explained the situation..

“It's called Banyasingong.?”

Zhuge Zhonghu was startled and raised his voice, then, wow! and closed his mouth..

I was soon relieved to realize that this area was a hideout in the Qimunjinbeop that could not be accessed except for a few people..

“Indeed, it all makes sense now..”

Zhuge Zhonghu glared at Zhou Seocheon and sighed..

Unlike yesterday, his gaze became softer..

Shaolin Temple’s unrivaled martial arts skills were said to have been lost for hundreds of years.!

Isn’t this a retrograde level that has not yet been interpreted?.

The wavelength is incomparable to that of a blood rootoscope..

Blood Root Sutra is a magical technique, so if you practice it, you can easily get caught in a magic spell or become infected with the demonic nature and lose yourself..

But Prajna Shingong is different..

Since martial arts are difficult, even if it is difficult to learn, you can still stay sane..

Even if you can't learn it, it doesn't matter.

Prajna spiritual practice cannot be converted into a monetary amount, and it can be a lifelong benefactor of Shaolin Temple..

If this comes out, it may attract not only the righteous faction, the evil faction, and the demonic religion, but also the ronin, the hermit, and the new world..

A time-saving new technique that can destroy the interior in an instant.

That was Shaolin Temple’s prajna practice..

“Where on earth did you get this??”

Zhuge Zhonghao asked from the source..

The anger disappeared like melting snow, but instead a question akin to suspicion emerged..

“Gangho I was wandering around for a bit and found it in Dokhyeolgok..”

“Poisonous blood song? mountain of sorrow?”

“yes. That's how it happened……”

He put an iron plate on his face and shamelessly told a lie..

His unwavering voice, his facial expression without any twitching, and his eyes shining with honesty were those of a skilled conman..

It wasn't a complete lie since I had visited Dokhyeolgok before..

It is more believable when the truth is mixed in..

Because it is an unexplored land, there were witnesses who entered the valley, which is why no one has been able to discover it..

Jeomchalchilgongja, Dan Ha-seong.

I decided to look into it later when I had time..

For reference, there are also four summons, but I didn't mention them..

I thought they might ask me how many pills I took for no reason..

I wanted to eat all of your eggs, but I couldn't because my teacher told me to return them..

“Indeed, did you use the Cheonpokbulsim?.”

“Do you know??”

“There were no rumors, but there were more than one eyewitness, so a little investigation will reveal them all..”

Zhuge Zhongho answered as if it was no big deal..

“I thought it would be thoughtless, but it turned out to be the opposite. Hmm. He takes back what he said he would kill..”

“no. I completely understand. So, please hold back your anger. Then he passed away.”

“Why don't you just tell me to die? joy!”

Although Zhuge Zhonghu has a thousand orders, I still wanted him to live as long as possible so that he could teach Zhuge Sang or Zhuge Suran..

If there were many other people who could help, it was welcome from the standpoint of preparing for the Amcheonhoe..

“Okay, leave the elders to me. I'll try something.”

I believe it.”

“Oh, and……”

“and?”

“Huh! Uhmmm!”

Zhuge Zhonghu deliberately cleared his throat and paused..

He noticed something, but Joo Seocheon played it off..

“A noble bastard.”

Zhuge Zhonghu stamped his feet and finally opened his mouth..

“Succession, my stupid grandchild is doing well.?”

“I'm doing well.”

Joo Seocheon answered immediately..

“Please tell that guy to come to his senses and study the Kimunjin method..”

Zhuge Zhonghu was busy raising the soldiers and successors of the Murim Alliance..

Even if I wanted to pay attention to Zhuge Succession, I couldn't..

Above all, I gave up due to stubbornness that was stronger than ox tendons..

“Do you have anything more to say??”

“does not exist!”

Zhuge Zhonghu turned his back as if he had finished his business..

“Seocheonah.”

When the conversation was over, Nangong Weimu called..

“Who is Seocheon??”

“Hmm. Basically, when you cross swords, you become close friends..”

Nangong Weimu laughed mischievously..

“Oh, and I have another question to ask..”

‘Is it about the twenty-four plum sword technique??’

It wasn't that there wasn't anything else to consider, but the possibility was low..

“Are you really not planning on coming in as your son-in-law? You have to come in now to learn kendo from me..”

Nangong Weimu coveted Ju Seocheon..

The nickname Maehwajeonggeom is nothing..

Gangho said the rumor was exaggerated, but it was the opposite..

Needless to say, he is skilled in martial arts, and he is also good at using his brain..

His personality was also excellent..

Truly the best groom.!

As soon as we crossed swords, I was wondering which of my granddaughters I should send to capture the beauty world..

‘Fortunately, I am still the only one who recognizes this guy's true value. You have to hurry and get it before someone finds out..’

He kept Joo Seocheon's inaction a secret from his friend Zhuge Zhongho..

This is because I was afraid that Zhuge Zhonghu would go crazy and try to steal all his granddaughters, using all his wisdom..

“Sir, I am a guru..”

“Isn’t it okay for a Taoist to become an older brother and a family member?.”

“It's not.”

Joo Seo-cheon gave a straight face..

“I'm so glad you didn't go through the plum inspection..

It's not too late now. Let’s get married quickly before we end up in a high-ranking position for no reason. It doesn't matter if you're engaged.”

Unlike monks, Taoist monks have the freedom to marry..

However, it was not possible if you were a mid-level official or a scheduled candidate..

“Did you know that Muhanbo is good for prosecutors? If you accept it now, I will even teach you the Changgung martial arts sword technique with my extra power. how is it? Honestly, I'm not attracted to it?”

The Changgung Muae Sword Technique, which is only permitted to the enemy, is about to be sold..

“Oh, do you like older people? Now that I think about it, you're not that old, so out of all the Sega people,……”

“Oh, kinda!”

* * *

Nangong Weiwu and Zhuge Zhonghu decided to persuade the elders..

I couldn't lie everything, so I mixed in a little bit of truth..

Of course, I was careful and careful not to let this leak out..

While the Murim lord and the military were persuading the leadership, Ju Seo-cheon stayed in the Murim alliance and received two letters..

Both sources were volcanic waves..

“Stop the repair and return……”

In the letter, there was praise for raising the name of the Hwasan faction, but it also said that it wanted to hear the situation in detail..

Another letter was from Yu Jeong-mok, asking how Joo Seo-cheon was doing and telling him not to worry as it was not a big deal and he was being told to return..

“Sniffle.”

I was touched by your consideration and concern..

If there were no people around, I would cry sobbingly..

“It's time to break up with that crazy woman..”

I went to Dang’s guest room to discuss with Dang Hye..

“Miss, you are not staying here..”

Won Dae-sik answered in an awkward tone..

“In the past, I would have persistently asked what the purpose was, but now that I've learned a bit about martial arts, my attitude has changed. I don’t feel embarrassed by that petty attitude.?”

“Yes this guy!”

Still, he lowered his voice and got angry, as if he knew he was a member of the Murim League..

“If you make a fuss for no reason, the girl will come and poison the food you eat..”

“……”

Won Dae-sik was silent..

“really……?”

I said it as a joke, but it turned out to be the truth..

“Oh no! You are not that kind of person.!”

“My voice is shaking. For some reason, ever since you argued with me, I've been going to the bathroom a lot.……”

I found out the truth I didn't want to know.

All of Tang Hye's guard warriors had top-level poison attacks, and I wondered if it was because of the poison's regular poisoning..

“Anyway, where would I be if I wasn't here??”

“hmm.”

Won Dae-sik kept his mouth shut..

Other escort warriors had similar reactions..

‘what?’

Now that I think about it, Tanghye has been strangely quiet since coming to the Murim Alliance..

Suddenly curiosity arose.

“Anyway, if you ask other people, they will quickly tell you where it is..”

“……Okay. I went to see Lord Soga..”

“Sogaju Ramen……”

My eyes widened at the unexpected name..

A poisonous dragon was in the Murim Alliance.?

The Sichuan Tang family produced both dragons and peaks in one generation..

It's not common, but it's not unheard of..

‘venomous dragon.’

I don't know much about the poisonous dragon that is the owner of the small household..

According to my memories of my past life, I was working normally, but when the poison king died, I inherited the position of head of the family..

Even in modern life, poisonous dragons naturally did not receive much attention due to their low activity..

I only knew that the poison attack was strong..

“It would be best not to go see him now..”

Won Dae-sik said as if warning..

There wasn't a single smile.

‘hmm.’

I didn't want to make him feel bad by visiting for no reason, but I was still curious..

‘Should I come and see you for a bit?.’

Although there was no unusual anecdote about Tang family siblings in the original history, I was still concerned about this reaction..

“thank you for your answer.”

I went outside, found the maid in charge of Danghye, and asked her..

“Did you see where Tang Xiaoje was headed??”

“yes yes!”

The maid answered with a slight blush..

When Joo Seocheon thanked her and left, the maids around her came and started talking about how jealous they were..

“Just now, Confucius is the Plum Blossom Sword Master.?”

“you, i wish you!”

Ju Seo-cheon, who was once disparaged as Bongchu, was no longer there..

Instead, there was Ju Seo-cheon, the Maehwajeongseon who organized the Seven Swords War and incinerated the blood root scriptures for the safety of the martial arts world..

Not only was he from a prestigious tribe, but his appearance also improved significantly after the transformation, so of course his popularity followed..

Anyway, I followed the eyewitness accounts of people around me and headed to where Danghye was..

Because it was so famous, there were many witnesses..

However, as time goes by, the popularity disappears and people gradually become less visible..

After walking a bit, I could see in the distance a manor with no windows and an old-fashioned atmosphere..

“Is it really a private hospital?.”

After reading the sign, I understood why there were no people..

In a private laboratory, poisons are studied or antidotes are made..

In addition, an autopsy was performed on a body that had died from poison..

As a result, I couldn't approach it carelessly, as poison might leak out into the surrounding area..

‘……?’

I tried to walk forward but stopped..

‘What are you doing??’

I saw Danghye standing in front of the door and looking at the main gate..

If you have anything to do, you can just go in, but strangely, he was standing in front, motionless like a stone statue..

“hmm.”

I thought about approaching him and asking him what he was doing, but I decided against it..

Even when viewed from a distance, the atmosphere behind the scenes was not good..

What are you thinking?.

For what reason is he coming here alone and doing that without saying a word?.

Many questions continued to grow, but no clear answer was ever found..

‘No, let's go back..’

I was worried that my relationship might be strained if I overdid it, so I decided to go back later..

Thanks to the efforts of Nangong Weiwu and Zhuge Zhonghao, they were able to persuade the elders..

Although we were not successful in completely persuading them, we decided to leave it to them as no one was pleased..

It was questionable that Zhuge Zhonghu, who had protested the most, suddenly took Ju Seo-cheon's side, but decided to listen to it later..

Nangong Weiwu tried to appease Zhou Seo-cheon in some way by keeping him tied up..

I was sincere in trying to get involved with my granddaughter..

However, when Joo Seo-cheon handed over a letter from the Hwasan faction and said that he had to return, he felt regretful as he lost his appetite..

“Then I'll just go back now..”

Dang Hye also decided to return to Sacheon..

It seemed that the Tang family was also curious about the circumstances of the Seven Swords War..

“Don't forget that.”

Joo Seo-cheon pointed to Dang-hye's finger..

The knight's squad sparkled, reflecting the sunlight..

“okay.”
