Episode 515
Power and Walls (8)
“What?”
Yang Chen asked with a shocked expression on his face.
“Fighting? So far?”
“That’s right.”
Baek Seo’s face was also uncharacteristically nervous.
Yang Chen let out a laugh.
“It’s been five days since I was appointed as special deputy. Are you saying that Yeonhojeong has taken Hwang Danju hostage and has been fighting with a thousand cavalrymen for five days?”
“Three days to be exact. “The nine hundred members of the Iron Guard who went out for training all returned in two days and are forming a formation to rescue Hwang Dan-ju.”
Yang Cheon was dumbfounded.
“You mean we’ve been holding out for three days against a total of 1,000 troops?”
“That’s right.”
“How on earth?”
Yeonhojeong’s military power is amazing. Right now, it was difficult to find anyone in the Mukryongbu generals who could compete with Yeonhojeong, excluding Yangcheon.
Anyway, the Yongah Iron Team is the strongest in the Mukryongbu. Moreover, the number is one thousand. A number of small and medium-sized factions had the power to be destroyed within half an hour even if they were pushed by force alone without any strategy.
“Some of the zodiac people saw the scene and said they could not explain it. So I saw it for myself…”
Baekseo shook his head.
“We are dealing with 1,000 cavalry by using martial arts, resourcefulness, and tactics at the moment.”
“Huh!”
Yang Cheon stuck out his tongue.
“Is that possible?”
Of course, Yangcheon was possible.
The strong of the Holy Heaven are beings that cannot be measured by human common sense. Yangcheon is also an absolute expert who was proudly named to Seongcheon, and if he is determined to deal with the Iron Team, he can annihilate them without much strategy or tactics.
But Yeonhojeong was different.
The Cheolgidan was one that could not easily deal with those who could not reach the rank of Mugeuk, or even if they reached the rank of Mugeeuk, they had not developed their own strength.
In particular, the Iron Team’s formation is perfect in attack and defense, making it strong regardless of whether it is a small elite or a group.
“This is a situation that cannot be ignored. “I have to see it for myself.”
* * *
“This is far from enough!”
Crumbling!
The iron bars that were being thrown were loaded with tremendous power.
It was just an act of violently stabbing the spear held in one hand, but the power of the burning fire around the blade of the spear was beyond imagination.
Puff puff!
A dozen members of the Iron Knights were sent flying backwards in a vicious single shout.
They had long since given up horsemanship.
Horsemen have ten times the strength of regular infantry. A trained horseman is a beast in itself, and its charging power is so powerful that even a martial arts expert cannot easily counter it.
However, when the level of the master is that of Yeonhojeong, it is a different story.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s reflexes and subtlety of Gyeongsinjutsu are at the top of the midfield. No matter how hard he gathered his cavalry and rushed at them, they didn’t hit him and only sent the warriors flying away. The timing of the herbivorous attack was such that not even the world’s iron cavalry could withstand it.
Eventually, they gave up on horseback and fought in hand-to-hand combat.
It was the right decision. If they had continued to use horseback combat, they would have only injured the horsemen without properly reducing their stamina.
The problem was that it was difficult to do anything to Yeonhojeong even in hand-to-hand combat.
Shhh!
With a single swing of the spear, a violent wind rose and the earth split apart.
Pow!
The three members who were rushing were thrown out on the spot.
I survived because of the experience I had at Changdae. If they had been hit by the wind blowing out from the spear blade, a couple of limbs would have been blown off of all three.
Boom! Boom! Buuuuung!
As my wrist turned, the pole of the spear spun terrifyingly.
“charge!”
Pabababak!
About thirty members formed a formation and charged.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
Paaaaang!
Fire spewed out from both hands of Yeonhojeong, who struck faster than the speed at which they charged.
Bub bub bub!
The seven members in the lead could not even scream. It just flew away spouting blood, but it had already passed out. It even obstructed the vision and movement of the members standing behind it.
It was a merciless bludgeoning technique performed with the tip of the spear on the opposite side of the spear. It wasn’t a spear blade, but if I had decided and used my strength, the speed would have been enough to open a hole in my body.
In an instant, Yeonhojeong, who had disrupted the formation, jumped between them with a strong advance.
It’s like a mountain tiger jumping into a pack of wounded wild dogs. Every time Yeonhojeong’s body rotated, spear strikes fired in all directions tore into their shoulders and sides of their thighs.
“Ugh!”
“Sigh!”
Iron Team members fly in all directions.
No one could touch Yeon Ho-jeong’s collar. The formation of even the world’s Iron Team collapsed in an instant, and Yeonhojeong’s exploit of the weak spot was very timely.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and looked around.
“Is this the end?”
Hundreds of Iron Knights hesitated.
This was the edge of a cliff. The terrain got narrower as you climbed, and the number of people who could tackle it at once was less than fifty at most.
That wasn’t a big problem. Because the Iron Knights were strong and good at group tactics. A decent expert could be easily dealt with by sending only half of a battalion.
But the opponent was Yeonhojeong.
In addition to seeing the end in the realm of transcendence, his instantaneous judgment and reflexes are among the best in the world. Not only does it have the advantage of terrain, but its stamina, excluding internal attack, is so good that it is not far behind that of a Seongcheon expert.
The cliff top guarded by Yeonhojeong was truly reminiscent of Cheolongseong Fortress.
“That’s amazing.”
Baekseo, who was watching the confrontation between Yeonhojeong and the Cheolgidan from a ravine far away, stuck out his tongue.
“Looking at it again, it’s really great skill. “Not a single one of those 100-strong iron corps can even touch the lapel of the specially appointed adjutant.”
“Hmm.”
Yang Chen stroked his chin.
“Yeonhojeong is strong. But that’s not all.”
“yes?”
“Terrain advantage, unique reflexes, top-notch combat skills that you don’t know where you got them from, and ridiculous stamina and instantaneous explosive power. “There is nothing out of the ordinary.”
After hearing Yang Chen’s words, Baekseo shook his head inwardly.
Reflexes and ultimate fighting sense, endurance that does not break even a breath even when fighting against 1,000 warriors, and explosive power that is as strong as endurance.
Even if you have just one of them properly, you can maximize that organ and become a master. However, Yeonhojeong has all of these advantages.
‘A monster is a monster.’
Yang Chen scratched his head.
“But what’s really amazing is how he lives.”
“yes?”
“Take a good look.”
Paaaa!
Even if you wait, there is no answer. Following the orders of the commanders of each unit, five groups of about a dozen members from different units formed a formation and charged.
Five formations with completely different tendencies attack at the same time. No matter how much Yeonhojeong is, he can’t stop them all on his own.
It was then.
Flash!
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
At that moment, the ten members of the Three Generations who were flocking from the far left flinched.
Burbubbubbuk!
That momentary pause was enough time to change the outcome of a match between experts.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who defeated six members of the left formation with a tremendous new technique, used his powerful footwork to push back the forty or so members who were charging sideways.
“Aaaah!”
Quang!
The White Tiger Army Limbo exploded again and again, and the members of the Iron Knights collapsed.
No one was able to stop Yeonhojeong’s power as he charged forward with his long spear lying horizontally.
Even if you try to split his head with a single spear sword, he avoids it by twisting his upper body in a split second, and it’s hard to believe his flexibility.
It feels like I’m dealing with a ghost, not a person. A look of boredom appeared on the faces of the members, including the leaders.
Paaang!
Not only did they completely destroy the formation, but they also knocked out about twenty members by pushing them away, kicking, stomping, and hitting them.
At this level, it was difficult to call him a person. It seemed like a huge battering ram came to life and was dealing with the Iron Knights.
“Whoop!”
Yeon Ho-jeong stepped back and caught his breath.
No matter how much Yeonhojeong was, there was no way he wouldn’t get tired dealing with this many people.
but.
Oooooh!
As soon as it was condensed, the condensed Yeonga Shindan rotated and spread a huge amount of true energy to all limbs.
His slightly pale complexion instantly returned to its original state. My breathing was still steady and the sweat quickly evaporated.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and shouted.
“That’s all I can do! “Try again!”
The loudly resounding voice exuded tremendous majesty and bloody murder.
It is the roar of a wild beast that runs down the spine of the listener. Still, the deployment of aiming a spear alone to deal with hundreds of Iron Knights seemed amazing.
It was a situation in which anyone’s blood could not help but boil. It was even more amazing because he was actually doing it.
Yang Chen chuckled.
“That guy wasn’t that bad… but he was like that too.”
“yes?”
“Perhaps because of my enlightenment, my true energy was condensed much more tightly than before. “It means that Jingi, united like Naedan, has achieved quantitative and qualitative improvement.”
White Paper’s eyes wavered.
He knew how difficult it was to achieve enlightenment even once at Yeonhojeong’s level.
However, in just a few months, we have reached a new level. Now it was difficult to describe Yeonhojeong even with the word monster.
“But no matter how much of a genius he is, it takes time to fully realize such enlightenment. “What is the best practice to embody that enlightenment?”
“….”
“It’s real.”
“…!”
“He is now fully demonstrating his advanced martial arts skills against the Iron Team. “As time goes by, the use of Jingi becomes more delicate and skillful at the same time.”
“Huh…!”
“Especially that one’s life is amazing. “The true energy condensed in the inner dan is immediately raised to the upper tier and spreads deadly force. It is worthy of being called an art.”
Yang Chen burst out laughing.
“Even his life is delicate. I am blocking my opponent’s movements by shooting accurately at the desired target and at the desired range. “What’s more, in actual combat, where you could be defeated if you make a mistake.”
“….”
“It’s impossible without distribution before talent or experience. “I knew you had a heart of steel, but I didn’t know you would go so far as to practice something so crazy.”
White Paper shook his head.
“It doesn’t seem crazy to the n.a.k.e.d eye. “It’s so overwhelming…”
“That’s crazy. “You’re not the only one training.”
“yes?”
Yang Chen pointed to the iron platform with his chin.
“Look.”
White Paper turned his gaze towards him.
Rumbling!
No matter how impenetrable the Iron Fortress is, if it retreats like this, it is no longer the Iron Fortress.
Another fifty or so people formed a formation and rushed forward, followed by the second group of waiting people in a formation. As many as ten such formations, or five hundred people, were rushing towards Yeonhojeong.
But they weren’t everything.
Before we knew it, the hundred or so members of the Iron Guard, who had disappeared like ghosts, were moving to the rear of Yeonhojeong, climbing the cliffs on both sides. This was the place where Hwang Seok-tae and Paeyul Kang-ryang were unconscious.
“The proud Cheolgi Dan, who had been obsessed with the opponent and just rushed at them, is finally coming to their senses.”
“You mean…?!”
“okay.”
Yang Chen smiled.
“They’re training me. Not only himself, but also the Iron Team. In fact, when would the Iron Team have planned a strategy to capture a master and recapture a kidnapped superior?”
“…!”
“I was curious about how they would hold a hazing ceremony, but on the contrary, I was handling a hazing ceremony for a thousand people by myself.”
White Paper sighed.
“The dishes are different.”
“That’s why I want to make it mine. “Regardless of military power, not everyone can have a vessel like that.”
Yang Chen smiled and turned around.
“Let’s go. “Looking at it, it looks like it will be over in two days.”
Yang Cheon’s prediction was accurate.
The match between Yeonhojeong and Cheolgidan ended after exactly two more days.
Surprisingly, no one in the Iron Team died during that time. Most of them suffered only moderate injuries and there were no deaths.
On the other hand, towards the end of the match, Yeonho-jeong suffered a serious injury. But it was still full of energy.
On that day, all of Ilcheon’s Iron Team bowed their heads in front of Yeonhojeong. It was an expression of sincere respect for the strong.
Yeon Ho-jeong fainted with laughter after receiving their greetings.
