Episode 174. The Age of the Wall Sword
The sun began to set.
Even though more than two hours had passed, the fighting was as intense as if it had just begun.
The battle between Yeonjeokha and the demons was so fast that it was impossible to even see them.
But the one who was cornered was Yeon-eui.
This is because the chain attacks of intelligent monsters are becoming increasingly sophisticated.
The composure disappeared from Yeonjeokha’s face.
The body is still reacting on its own, but as fatigue accumulates, it is difficult to guarantee that.
‘Damn! I let too much out.’
He resented his own complacency.
He started a big deal without even knowing much about the monsters’ habits.
It was the worst result created by the monster’s ‘obsession’ and ‘intelligence’ toward its enemy.
Honestly, killing one monster isn’t that difficult.
But to do that, you have to physically absorb the attacks of other monsters.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that, from his perspective, it was like being in a relationship with a peer.
Boohoo.
The Flame Mine’s palm swept across the ground as it approached.
The man who had just kicked away the claws of the Ilgokka people quickly dodged to the side.
The Flame Mine’s mouth opened as the punch missed.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The unquenchable flames of hell poured out.
The enemy quickly flew into the air to avoid the flames.
As if they had been waiting, the claws of the Ilchulbajins flew in from the left and right.
Chaechang.
I struck out two of them, and this time the Flame Mine’s hand came up, aiming for my feet.
He switched places in the air using the technique of the nine dragons of the same name.
Crunch.
The sound of Flame Mine’s fist grabbing the air was eerie.
The beads of sweat that had been forming on Yeonjeokha’s forehead rolled down his earlobes.
“Gasp! Gasp!”
Finally, a rough breathing sound came out of Yeonjeokha’s mouth.
“Shit!”
Curses burst out of his mouth without his knowledge.
If someone could just grab the monsters’ attention for a moment, they’d put up a good fight!
At times like these, the absence of the heart of Gucheonnodo is regrettable.
Of course, if he had been there, he would have been killed by the monster’s hand like Musanggui.
***
Three old men ran through the forest like the wind.
These are the Kunlun Three Immortals who wandered around the continent as indicated by the needles of the Chuma Bagua Board.
The first Taeeul sage, who was running with his gray beard fluttering, asked.
“Priest, is the needle still vibrating?”
The third Taeryeong sage who was holding the Chuma Palgwae board answered in an excited voice.
“It’s really fluttering. Could this be the monster people were talking about?”
“You’ll know when you see it. I’d like to see who moved the Kunlun Dharma Treasure.”
“I have never felt the needle quiver for this long. I have a feeling that today we will see the Wall Sword of Taemu Death.”
The second son, Taemu, spoke calmly in response to the words of Taeryeong.
“For the sake of the world, it would be better if the Wall Sword were not revealed to the world. Isn’t it truly terrible that we live in an era where the Wall Sword is needed?”
Taeeul Seonin and Taeryeong Seonin nodded.
That’s right.
The Wall Sword is a sword made to fight against demons, so it’s a blessing that it has no use.
That was when.
The Chuma Palgwae board held in the hands of the Taeryeong sage vibrated.
Ddddddddd-.
“Death penalty! The Chuma Palgwae board… … .”
The faces of Taeeul and Taemu sage hardened.
The Chuma Palgwae board is shaking?
Wasn’t it just the needle that was moving?
I have never seen anything like this before, nor have I ever heard of such a phenomenon.
The Taieul sage raised the power of the air.
“It looks like something has come from somewhere nearby. Let’s hurry before it gets dark!”
Then the three sages flew towards the mountain burning in the sunset like a ray of light.
***
Wheezing- Wheezing-.
Crescent-shaped dragonflies flew in in pairs.
As Yeonjeokha swung his sword and broke the steel, two giant fists fell down on his head.
He narrowly avoided the rock-like fist.
Kuung.
The ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred.
The moment the poisonous Yeonjeokha rose, he screamed.
“Yeah! I can’t stand it anymore!”
I was planning on dealing with at least one of my rivals.
Even if I suffered some damage, I felt like I would feel better if I did that.
Maybe because I was so angry, the thought of ‘running away’ didn’t even cross my mind.
He charged his sword with the energy of the nine heavens and struck the Flame Demon’s arm with all his might.
Kaang.
Sparks flew along with the sound of a stone hitting a rock.
“Kwaaah!”
With a painful howl, the Flame Mine breathed fire madly.
Hurrruk. Hurrruk.
“Eek!”
Contrary to his determination to kill, he ran here and there to avoid the flames that were raging.
The claws of the demons flew into his body.
As I frantically dodged the pouring flames, I soon found myself in the center of the courtyard.
The demons surrounded Yeonjeokha in the shape of the letter “品”.
Yeonjeokha glared at the Flame Mine standing in front of him like a stone pagoda with solemn eyes.
“I’ll kill you first! Cha-ha-ha!”
Yeonjeokha’s body rushed forward with a powerful shout.
Then, fire poured out from the Flame Mine’s mouth.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
It was something I would have avoided in the past, but I chose to confront it head on.
He charged forward with the tip of his sword in front.
The nine heavenly swords, three meals, and three wind and sky small cattle were spread out.
The wind that had accumulated at the tip of the sword flew forward like a typhoon, pushing the flames away.
Kukukukuku-.
But they are not the only ones who will just watch.
The Ilgakma people ran like the wind and swung their sharp claws at Yeonjeokha’s back and sides.
Shh. Shh.
He moved backwards so quickly that he could be called a momentary love triangle.
The so-called ‘controlling barbarians with barbarians’.
This is the same technique used against Musanggui.
However, the secret techniques of the Il-gak-ma-in were incomparable to those of Musang-gwi.
In the blink of an eye, the Ilgokma people were out of their seats.
Phew!
The ground where Yeonjeokha had just been standing soon became a sea of fire.
The fight returned to square one again.
“Death penalty, what is that?”
The Taeryeong sage asked while folding the Chuma Palgwae board.
A monster over a meter tall (about 3 meters) and a creature with a scythe for a hand?
A sigh escaped from the mouth of the sage Taeeul.
“Huh! A monster has appeared in this world. Does this mean that the end of the world is near?”
As he was looking around the room, the sage Taemu silently took off the large wooden armor he had been carrying on his back.
Then an antique sword three feet long appeared.
This is the Kunlun School’s treasure and Dharma treasure, the Bisha Sword.
Taemu Seonin, holding the Wall Sword, took the lead, and Taeeul Seonin and Taeryeong Seonin followed behind.
“Brothers! We will help you.”
Yeonjeokha’s face brightened at the sound coming from behind.
I quickly turned around to see who it was, and saw three old men with god-like appearances approaching me.
Even though I was already short on resources, I was so touched that I couldn’t help but feel happy.
“Beware of the fire coming out of the mouth of that Flame Demon! It’s a magical flame that burns everything it touches! And the claws of the Ilgodon Demon are harder than steel!”
“Okay!”
With the answer, the Taimu sage ran towards the horned monster that was in front of him.
Ilgakmaine turned around quickly as something eerie approached from behind.
Humans were rushing forward, wielding ‘swords full of malice’.
Ilgakmain, who was conflicted between ‘enemy’ and ‘sword full of malice’, eventually chose ‘malice’ which was closer to him.
As one of the Ilkakmaines fell, I glared at the flame mine in front of me.
“You are dead now.”
Yeonjeokha charged forward with his horse.
“Kyaaaaah!”
Fire poured out of Flame Mine’s mouth with a roar.
This time too, the enemy used the method of wind and water to push away the flames.
Then, as if waiting, the remaining Ilgakmaine clung to Yeonjeokha.
As the claws flew towards his waist, he turned the tip of his sword.
Each.
The claws blocked the attack, but instead flames poured down.
Hwaruk-.
In that moment, Ilgakmaine pulled back like the wind.
Yeonjeokha followed behind him like a shadow.
If it were like before, another Il-gak-ma-in would have been after Yeon-jeok-ha.
The familiar combined attack had a fatal effect on Ilgakmain.
Ilgakmain turned around without even thinking about Yeonjeokha who had become free.
Finally, the one-on-one situation that Yeonjeokha had been longing for came true.
The one who found the red flag swung his claws.
Chaechang.
The tip of Yeonjeokha’s sword, which had struck the nail in one breath, advanced smoothly like a butterfly.
The nine thousand nine hundred swordsmanship was a success.
The panicked Il-gak-ma-in waved his hands like lightning, but they did not reach Haeng-ji-mugang.
Phew.
The tip of the sword was embedded in Ikkoman’s heart.
Immediately afterwards, with a ‘snap’ sound, black energy pierced through his chest and extended behind his back.
The trembling Ilgakma-in suddenly turned to dust and scattered.
A shout of joy burst from Yeonjeokha’s mouth.
“Oh yea!”
I was as happy as a child because it was a great achievement that happened after just one hour.
Meanwhile, the fight between Taemu Seonin and Ilgakmain was also coming to an end.
In the case of Taimu Seonin, he is a former master of the Kunlun School and his swordsmanship has already reached the highest level.
With the rare Dharma treasure called the Wall Sword in his hands, Ilgakmain couldn’t hold out for long.
As the Wall Sword cut off his neck, the Ilgokmain turned into dust and disappeared.
The eyes of the sage Taemu, who had just turned around after dealing with the Ilgakmain, opened wide.
A young man with a pale face was thrusting his sword into the skull of a giant monster.
While the Kunlun Three Immortals were dealing with one demon, the young man was able to eliminate two.
‘Is that a kendo swordsman?’
Even if his sword was a Dharma treasure like the Wall Sword, its speed was astonishing.
Even the sage Tae-eul and sage Tae-ryeong, who were helping the sage Tae-mu, had expressions that seemed difficult to understand.
Kunlun Sanshen, who had collected his weapons, approached the young man with a curious face.
Taeeul Seonin gave the introduction first.
“Haha. Nice to meet you. I am the Taeeul Seonin of the Kunlun Sect. This is my disciple, the Taemu Seonin and the Taeryeong Seonin.”
“Ah! I see. I’m asking you to join me. Thank you for helping me. If it weren’t for you three, I would have spent the night with those monsters.”
“Are you by any chance the Sohyeop who is the general patrolman of Nokrim?”
“yes.”
At Yeonjeokha’s answer, Kunlun Sanseon nodded his head with a meaningful expression.
After a while, Taeryeong Seonin asked with a curious look on his face.
“But what are those monsters? We are people who have chased after demons from Kunlun Mountain.”
“Wow! Can you feel the magic from that far away?”
When Yeonjeok-ha was surprised, Taeryeong Seonin smiled and took out the Chuma Palgwae board to show it to her.
“We didn’t feel the demons directly. The name of this Dharma treasure is Chuma Bagua Pan, and the needles on this Bagua Pan can tell you where the demons are.”
“Wow! This is truly an amazing thing!”
Yeonjeokha’s eyes never left the Chuma Palgwae board.
For him, the Tailing hermit briefly explained the journey from Kunlun Mountain to this place.
“… … Suddenly, the Chuma Palgwae board began to vibrate at the foot of this mountain. The three of us brothers were so surprised by it that we ran until our soles were sweaty.”
“Oh! I see.”
Yeonjeokha nodded with an expression of admiration.
Now that I think about it, I wonder what would have happened if I hadn’t gotten lost and wandered around for three days.
Taemu Seonin, who had been quietly watching Yeonjeokha since a while ago, opened his mouth.
“But what happened to the monsters? This is a mountainous area. Do you know why they appeared here?”
“Ah, those monsters are originally the Ten Horsemen of the famous religion.”
“Huh! Are you really saying that those are famous Christians?”
He told the surprised Taemu sage, who was in a relationship with him, the story of the famous religion, the righteousness alliance, and the green forest. He didn’t know that it was a big secret of the martial arts world. Of course, even if he had known, he would have been itchy and told it easily.
Wuxia,
