Episode 757
Changes in the Way of Heaven (2)
‘This is impossible!’
Hongryonggung gulped his saliva as he looked at the direction of the royal palace from afar.
‘Why can’t I move?’
The military power of those named as Red Dragons varied greatly.
The work of disassembling or reinterpreting martial arts and creating them was not something that could simply be said to be of a high level.
However, there are people who are naturally gifted with such abilities. So, there were strong red dragons and there were also weaker red dragons than expected.
Among them, the Red Dragon Palace was one of the strongest among the Red Dragons. Given the right environment, even the Red Dragon Sword would not be able to overcome the Red Dragon Palace.
She couldn’t move.
flinch!
The moment I tried to take a step forward, my toes automatically curled.
Cold sweat broke out on my back. The back of my neck immediately became damp. My complexion was pale and I kept swallowing dry saliva.
The expression ‘my spine feels numb’ is probably used in times like this. This is not a metaphor, I really felt like I wanted to kneel down right now because my spine was numb.
‘why! ‘Why can’t I move?!’
Grinding his teeth, Hongryonggung forcibly burned out his strong will.
Wow!
She unfolds the divine law with her eyes tightly closed.
‘…!’
At that moment, she stepped back without realizing it. One foot further back than where I originally stood.
Hongryonggung’s face turned pale.
Kugugoogung!
A huge Asura statue appeared in front of her.
It’s clearly an illusion. There are many mysterious monsters in the world, and many unknown and unheard of spirit creatures, but I have never heard of a three-sided and six-proportioned Asura statue that is more than ten feet tall and is alive and moving.
Reason recognized it and was convinced of it.
However, the mind was criticizing the confidence given by reason as a lie.
‘Die.’
If you enter that area, you will die.
It wasn’t just death either. He will be torn to pieces by a six-armed giant with fire burning on his head, three faces with flashing eyes that look more ferocious than a demon and sharp fangs like a wild beast.
‘I’m really dying!’
Dying wasn’t scary. It has been a long time since I overcome countless life and death experiences and the fear of death through the power of faith.
That made me even more amazed. She was a poisonous breed who would not even blink an eye even if her limbs fell off for the sake of a mission.
‘Why are you doing this? why!’
Tuk!
Hongryonggung looked down at the floor in surprise.
Slurp!
I lost the bow because my fingers were weak. The bow was sliding down the roof.
‘what are you doing! catch! ‘I think it’s a shame that an unmanned person misses a weapon!’
But all she could do was reach for the bow that was moving further and further away.
Other than that, I couldn’t do anything. This was because it seemed that if I lowered my body and tried to hold the bow, I would not be able to get up again from the prone position.
The transcendental expert Hong Dragon Palace’s military power is at the level of a servant, no less than that of the leader of the Great Moon Sect.
To reach that level, you need more than strong internal energy and a trained body. It is a strong spirit.
However, the super expert, who has transcended even the fear of death, is unable to move because he feels like he will be torn to pieces. This was absolutely not normal.
So why is she doing this?
What on earth did Yeonwi use to become incapable of fighting?
‘Is it a liquor law?’
It’s not a technique. She knew it.
It’s a completely different method. Something so profound that it could break a person’s spirit, even that of a transcendental master, and destroy his spirit, had broken her.
She didn’t want to admit it. Except for those who have reached the ultimate, or even among those who have reached the ultimate, only those who have achieved extreme enlightenment have been unable to even knock on the door. This was ‘that state’.
But even if her reason didn’t acknowledge it, her mind and body did.
Even though he was unable to open the door to the extreme and beyond, his enlightenment was so lofty that he was at the level of a monster who skipped everything.
It is the utopia of martial arts that all those who hold a sword, or even those who have learned martial arts, want to reach without exception.
“…heart sword (心劍)?”
* * *
The door to the royal palace is split, and behind it are the emperor and empress.
Peng Wugang and Zhuge Zhenyan knew that. No matter how urgent the situation was, I had to turn my head to confirm their presence. Even if it was urgent, I had to be polite and be alert to my surroundings.
But the two couldn’t do that.
It was because I was overwhelmed by the sight before my eyes and the fight between Yeonwi and Ki Wooheon.
“…her!”
Peng Mu-gang let out a groan similar to a laugh. Zhuge Zhen was not even able to speak.
Qarring!
When Yeonwi swung his sword, the palace gate and part of the palace wall leading to the palace shattered and flew away.
It was a very destructive sword attack, unbecoming of a senior officer. The short sword he was holding was less than two feet long, but it looked as if he was swinging a huge sword that was longer than one piece.
But that wasn’t surprising. It was clearly a powerful martial arts attack, but it was a blow that even Peng Mu-gang was capable of.
What was truly surprising was the momentum itself displayed by Yeonwi.
Blah blah blah!
The small sword, moving like a bolt of lightning, collided with the flaming fist, creating a terrifying shock wave.
There is no lack of strength. But Ki Woo-heon withdrew. It wasn’t just one or two steps, but he ended up retreating more than ten steps in order to escape the full authority of the Yeonwi.
Faaagh!
Yeonwi, who had spread the Cheonjong Unbibi as if he had been waiting, suddenly appeared to the right of Ki Woo-heon.
Ki Woo-heon’s face distorted.
Puff puff!
The Flame King’s Fist was unleashed against the merciless cutting and stabbing attacks.
Yeonwi’s body shook. Ki Woo-heon was also unable to overcome his sword strength and took three or four steps back.
‘Unbelievable!’
Flash!
Yeon Wi, who cleared the front line of fire with his left-handed Banryongjang and narrowed the distance to just two steps, stabbed his sword into Ki Woo-heon’s chest.
It was a killing that was extremely merciless. Remove the enemy’s shield and insert your sword into the gap revealed. He was literally ready to kill with one sword.
months!
Yeon Wei’s sword created a scratch on Ki Woo-heon’s side. Ki Woo-heon was scared and turned his body to avoid the sword.
Boom!
Ki Woo-heon, who widened the distance again, took a deep breath.
He did not take his eyes off Yeonwi until the end, but he was not deceived.
‘Why on earth are you doing this?!’
He is superior in all aspects of speed and strength.
In addition, firearms emitted from the entire body always inflict damage on the enemy. Since it always has a Qigong barrier around it, it can react sensitively to enemy attacks as well.
In addition, excluding the absolute master who opened the extreme gate, he possessed the most extensive internal power within the Shinhwa Church. They say that the more advanced you are, the more important the quality of your internal energy is, but if you are at a similar level, those with more internal energy will inevitably have an advantage.
But why?
months! Let’s go! Sasak!
A horrifying slash targeted Ki Woo-heon’s entire body.
I predicted all the sword strikes with Geumje Sunhwagong’s firewall, but strangely, it was difficult to dodge them.
Ki Woo-heon urgently reached for the sky.
Chiri riri ring!
The broken and scattered iron pieces of Qian Kun Quan gathered together in his hands, creating a gust of flame.
“die!”
Fuuuuuuu!
The tension released by the deteriorated kidney immediately swept over the Yeonwi.
Jegal Yeon shouted without even realizing it.
“Matriarch!!”
bang!
With the explosion, the flames that swept through Yeonwi scattered in all directions.
Yeonwi’s appearance was revealed to be extremely fine. He was glaring at Ki Woo-heon with his sword extended to the middle, and Ki Woo-heon felt his breath suffocating when he saw those eyes.
“…what.”
Ki Woo-heon’s eyes trembled.
“What the hell are you!”
It was then.
‘…?!’
Time divided into moments.
Ki Woo-heon felt as if dozens of swords were raining down from the sky.
Each sword was a large sword, larger than the pillars of the Great Hall. There were dozens of such swords, so it seemed like there was no way to avoid them.
Ki Woo-heon’s face appeared momentarily filled with fear.
The middle and middle battles fluctuated, and the upper and lower battles resonated.
“Aaaah!”
Crumbling!
The gold flames, which were fluttering menacingly, soared high into the sky, creating a gust of wind around Ki Woo-heon’s body.
It was Cheon Oecheon’s Qigong technique, in which he poured all his energy into it. Instead of sending out a pillar of fire like before, he becomes a pillar of fire himself and crushes all threats that come his way.
Saaaaagh!
Broken stones and foreign objects shot up into the sky, centered around a swirling pillar of golden fire. The whirling foreign matter seemed to be sucked into the pillar of fire and soon collapsed into ashes.
There was literally no spectacle. It was a sight that anyone would have been amazed at if it were not a life-or-death battle.
Flash! Whoa!
At that time, a beam of light penetrated the center of the pillar of fire.
hook!
The rising pillar of fire dispersed and disappeared in an instant.
Saaaaaaaaa!
The extremely high temperature flames disappeared and the blowing wind cooled the heat. Frost formed in the Eodo area along with a thick haze.
And Ki Woo-heon stood in the center.
“….”
Ki Woo-heon looked down at his chest in silence.
The flying short sword stuck straight through his heart.
“With this…”
Ki Woo-heon smiled a twisted smile.
A face that shows all kinds of emotions, including fear, shock, embarrassment, and anger.
“You can’t kill me with an attack like this.”
Even as he spoke, Ki Woo-heon felt puzzled by his own remarks.
Why am I saying this? Isn’t it normal to break the sword during that time, recover with Hwajeong, and then immediately attack?
“You failed. Emperor? Even if the idiot puppet comes to his senses, our…”
Sigh!
“Oops!”
Ki Woo-heon groaned and stumbled.
The small sword that pierced his chest was again held in Yeonwi’s hand. It was a ploy by someone out of thin air.
Grumble! Grumble!
Concentrated energy surged from Hwajeong, regenerating the destroyed blood vessels and even returning bones, muscles, and heart to their original state.
Ki Woo-heon’s painting passion, which reached a high level, was on a different level from that of others. Even though his heart was pierced, he did not die.
but.
Grrrr!
Ki Woo-heon, who was lowering his posture to prepare for his opponent’s next attack, suddenly felt his legs shaking.
It wasn’t just the legs. The trembling that started somewhere in my chest suddenly spread throughout my entire body.
My hands got cold. My earlobes turned red and my back felt sore.
My body didn’t listen, as if I had been fighting for several nights without rest. My breathing became more and more difficult and my eyes became blurry.
‘What is this?’
weird. Why is my body like this?
All it took was one piercing with a sword?
Okay.
Ki Woo-heon, who was looking at his body in confusion, looked up with an eerie feeling.
In front of him was Yeonwi. It was a place that was less than a stone’s throw away if you fell over.
Crack!
Ki Woo-heon’s teeth suddenly clashed.
The moment I saw Yeonwi’s face up close, my body froze in indescribable fear.
“Those whose hearts are broken and those who have lost their minds.”
“….”
“I have lost my will to fight, so it would be right to let him go.”
Flash!
Behind Yeonwi’s back, the illusion of Asura appeared.
“Now I have forgotten mercy.”
At that moment, Ki Woo-heon realized. Why am I so filled with fear that I can’t do anything?
Even though he has superior strength and speed, why is he being toyed with by Yeonwi?
Why was I threatened by an invisible sword? Why couldn’t I attempt an active attack even though my heart was pierced and my body was still intact?
‘This guy didn’t destroy Geumjesunhwagong.’
Fuwaaaaak!
One of Ki Woo-heon’s arms flew high into the sky.
‘I couldn’t muster up my strength. ‘I couldn’t do my best.’
Suddenly! Suddenly!
One remaining arm and left leg were also blown off.
Ki Woo-heon fell down, and an emptiness appeared in his eyes.
‘My heart and mind were cut… my heart….’
Chin!
Yeonwi, who was holding Ki Woo-heon’s neck, held the sword in reverse and swung it mercilessly.
Suddenly! puck! Plopping! Jjiigik!
