Episode 764.
The Battle of Pandemonium and the Battle of Pandemonium (2)
“…?”
Yeonwi, who had been meditating in the lotus position for a while, suddenly opened her eyes.
Zhuge Yan, who was writing something on a document next to him, looked back at Yan Wei.
“Are you awake?”
“….”
“Matriarch?”
Yeonwi looked out the window in silence.
Zhuge Zhenyan felt something unusual.
“Is there any problem?”
“…not now but.”
“yes?”
Yeonwi’s eyes deepened.
‘What was it?’
Yeonwi no longer practiced internal energy or trained his body. Of course, such training was not unimportant, but what he needed right now was to set his mind straight and control his upper body properly.
A meditation that goes infinitely deep. A way to look back on my own soul and find the true meaning of my martial arts.
Fortunately, I was able to control myself immediately after the first release of the mind, so it was not difficult to establish the right mind. Crossing the line or not crossing it was a principle applied even in examination and inspection.
Control the upper realm through meditation and build a good barrier to prevent its power from overflowing.
As a result, Yeonwi developed a strange ability that he had never had before.
‘It was definitely demonic energy.’
It wasn’t clear which direction it was going in.
However, Yeonwi was certain. That there is someone who has mastered magic within the realm of the imperial palace.
‘If it was closer to the palace, I would have been able to pinpoint the direction. Then, is it an external castle?’
Yeonwi’s fists gradually gained strength.
‘It’s not just Mine. It’s incredibly quiet, but… the part of that power is definitely…’
flinch!
Yeonwi turned his head.
‘…?’
This time too, the exact direction was unknown. It seemed to be near the west in the distance, but it was so wide that it was difficult to pinpoint where it was.
‘It’s a strange power. It’s much more secretive than the master of magic.’
Ugh.
Yeonwi’s pupils turned blue.
It wasn’t because of the sword technique. As the upper part of the body is activated, the naturally generated divine energy is gathering in his eyes.
The eyes are like a window to the heart and a passageway leading to the top.
‘A higher-dimensional power than internal power… But it is also a harmony of energy…’
At that moment, blue eye lights flashed as if they were lightning.
“Magic power?”
“yes?”
Slurp.
Yeonwi, who relaxed her posture, got down from the bed and said.
“There are masters in the imperial palace who are difficult to handle.”
“…!”
Zhuge Zhen’s face hardened.
She, as well as Peng Wu-gang, were extremely confident in Yeon-wi’s abilities. Especially after he implemented the Mind and Sword, the two people secretly believed that the strongest person on this side was Yeonwi.
It was the right belief. Yeonwi is not simply a warrior who knows how to wield weapons well, but his enlightenment is so deep that he is close to an enlightened person who has achieved a path.
“I don’t know the identity. I can’t even pinpoint the direction accurately. But… both of them are monsters that have opened the realm of non-extreme.”
“…!!”
“maybe.”
Maybe?
Yeonwi frowned.
“One is for sure. He is a demon who has trained magic skills. But the other side is uncertain. An energy similar to magical power is hiding its existence, but I don’t know how strong it is. It may be at Seongcheon level, or it may have just reached the level of martial arts. “I’m not sure.”
I was able to see it because I was extremely focused on myself, without any distracting thoughts.
If the Taoist monk who practiced amulet magic for the ‘beast’ knew about Yeonwi’s ability, he would probably have been frightened. He prepared high-level techniques and various talisman techniques for three years to create a mysterious room, but Yeonwi was showing similar abilities just by concentrating.
“…okay.”
“There is no significant movement yet. But if the enemy starts attacking, they will also move. “With that level of force, as soon as the attack begins…”
Yeonwi flinched for a moment.
“Matriarch?”
“….”
“Matriarch, are you okay?”
“Okay.”
Yeonwi slightly turned his head.
Slurp.
A trickle of blood flowed from his nose.
Yeonwi, who wiped the nosebleed with her hand, sat on the bed as if nothing had happened.
Yeonwi said calmly.
“I don’t know the enemy’s strength, but it is likely to be several times larger than ours. “If you look at the number of people, there may be more of us who have even reached the Golden Army, but if you look at the number of experts, there is no comparison.”
“Yes, I think so too.”
“Despite this, they haven’t attacked us yet. “Even aside from the fact that Pangaju’s negotiation skills are excellent, this is something strange.”
There are two monsters who are presumed to be masters of martial arts.
With that level of power, there would be no need for negotiations. If you decide to fight, you will have the ability to destroy this side in an instant.
That’s why the master of martial arts is so scary. It is truly like a moving disaster.
“What do you think?”
Zhuge Zhen, who was lost in thought for a moment, nodded.
“I guess there are two reasons.”
“two?”
“One is the matriarch’s sword.”
“….”
“At that time, the spirit sword that spread from the royal palace must have had a strong impact on the enemies. “If the head of the family had fired the sword without distinguishing between enemy and son, the head of the family and I would not have been normal by now.”
Yeonwi’s eyes deepened.
Jegal Ah-yeon continued.
“We knew it when we saw it, but the enemy may have accepted that there was an unusual expert on this side. “I probably would have done the same.”
“okay.”
“An unknown entity whose identity is unknown always causes fear. Moreover, we informed them that we were capturing Taegam Wooheon alive. “It is bound to be difficult to move hastily.”
“But…”
“Yes. Until now, that’s all I thought. However, as the head of the family said, if the enemy had two invincible monsters, it would have been normal to ignore their strength and think about wiping them out.”
Zhuge Yan spread out his index and middle fingers.
“The second reason here is that you can’t control them.”
“Control?”
“yes. I can’t help but think that way. It’s not a good situation for them to waste time right now. Of course, they may be preparing a cunning plan that we don’t know about, but even with that in mind, we’re hesitating too much.”
“hmm.”
“It’s probably because the head of the family is not properly controlling the two monsters you saw. “I think so.”
It was a guess that you couldn’t be sure about unless you saw and heard it in person. If there was even a little bit of information, they didn’t know the enemy either.
“No matter what, just having a master who is difficult to mess with will be a shackle for us.”
“Yes, that is correct.”
Yeonwi shook his head.
“The sit-in protest will take longer than expected…”
That was then.
Beep!
Not only Yeon Wei but also Zhuge Yan’s eyes widened.
“Hyosi?!”
Zhuge Zhen was embarrassed.
“What is this all of a sudden?”
Wooooow.
Yeonwi’s pupils turned blue again.
Grumbling.
Blood flowed from my nose again. It was bleeding that he himself was not aware of.
But Yeonwi soon smiled faintly.
“I think this could work out well.”
* * *
Grumble. Grumble.
Yeon Ho-jeong looked beyond the gate with bright blue eyes.
It was full of people showing unusual momentum. The number of people who appeared through the open gate was close to a hundred.
‘That’s amazing.’
Yeonhojeong whistled softly.
There are many strong people in the world. Compared to the number of martial artists spread across the entire continent, it was a very small number, but considering the absolute number, there were not a small number of masters even in the mighty martial arts.
But I thought those guys were just as great as this one. Where on earth are they mass producing so much coriander? There were as many as four of the transcendental coriander that could be seen right away.
The masters who lined up after him were also not lacking compared to the elites of the old faction.
‘Isn’t it obvious?’
It’s not anywhere else, it’s the imperial palace. It was rather strange not to have that many troops stationed in the imperial palace.
Rumbling!
‘hmm?’
It was an unusual sound.
I thought it was the sound of the gates going up, but that wasn’t it.
Something huge was moving behind the Mythists. It was a black iron block with not one, but five wheels.
‘Fire artillery?!’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face suddenly became shocked.
Ki Woo-hee whispered softly.
“Does it look fancy?”
“I know.”
“how to do?”
“You can’t shoot openly. do not worry.”
It occurred to me once again that Ki Woo-hee had a deep connection with artillery.
Even when we first went to rescue Ki Woo-hee, the enemies mobilized artillery. They even moved to the surrounding government offices to capture the movement route and targeted this direction with more than ten artillery pieces. It really sent shivers down my spine.
At the time, I rushed in alone with superhuman mental power and destroyed it all, but…
‘The imperial palace artillery is definitely a bit different.’
It seemed to be made of much harder steel than the artillery used by the government. It had a good shine and, above all, was well maintained.
Moreover, the people who mobilized it are Shinhwa cultists who are masters of Yeoyanggong.
‘This might be a bit dangerous.’
It wouldn’t be that difficult if you tried to rush indiscriminately on your own, but the problem is that there are a lot of people here too.
In other words, if they just pretend to be crazy and fire artillery into the surrounding area, people who have nothing to do with this could be killed in droves.
Yeon Ho-jeong quenched his appetite.
“Who are you?!”
Center of open gate.
Gi Cheon-hyung shouted.
“Sometimes we hear such intimate details…!”
“noisy.”
Wooooow.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s voice was calm yet sharp. In an instant, Ki Cheon-hyung was cut off, and it felt as if his voice was being sucked into the castle gate.
Yeon Ho-jeong tapped Ki Woo-hee on the chin with a drawing of Woldo.
“This b*tch, right? “The saint you mourn so much for.”
Although the distance was quite far, there was no way Ki Cheon-hyung, a master, could not recognize Ki Woo-hee’s face.
Ki Cheon-hyung’s eyes slightly wavered.
‘Saint?!’
She is a real saint.
The white skin, blue eyes, and beautiful face unique to Westerners were not something that could be decorated.
But Gicheon-hyung played it off.
“Who is she?”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“Is it coming out loud?”
“And you again…”
“It hasn’t been long since you fired an arrow, but do you think it makes sense to rush out like a colt with its tail on fire and pretend not to know?”
“…!”
“Use your acting to get through, you b*stard. I guess there isn’t a leader with a good head over there? “You’re so ignorant.”
Ki Cheon-hyung’s face instantly turned red.
He was hot-tempered and didn’t like to think, but at the same time, what he hated the most was being ignorant.
“You son of a b*tch!”
“So what are you going to do?”
Yeon Ho-jeong lowered his sword and put his arm around Ki Woo-hee’s shoulder.
It was a gesture that might seem friendly, but it wasn’t like that right now. It seemed as if Yeon Ho-jeong’s strong arms could break Ki Woo-hee’s neck at any moment.
Ki Cheon-hyung’s eyes wavered.
“If she’s not a saint, is it okay to cut off her hair right now?”
“profit!”
“She is a saint.”
A unique look flashed in Yeon Ho-jeong’s bright blue eyes.
He, who perfectly captured his prayers and presence, calmly unfolded the Four Gods.
“Bring all your troops inside the imperial palace. If you don’t want to see the saint fly away.”
