4.
I cursed to myself dozens of times.
I risked my life to master the Sword Demon’s martial arts, but the Sword Evil that was summoned
Eun is trembling like a dog seeing a tiger, and the absurd axe evil
This head was cut off.
Of course, it’s not that I dislike the fact that Buak died at my hands.
Because he was literally a madman who habitually committed murder and arson.
It would be a good idea to take this opportunity to clean up that guy, considering it a way to accumulate merit in the martial arts world.
“But… ‘If I had known Buak would appear, I wouldn’t have done that crazy thing of trying to learn the Demon Sword’s martial arts.’ I somehow managed to master the first technique of the White Moon Heaven-Suppressing Three Forms, but because of it, my body turned into some kind of mutated creature.”
It is not that the blood vessels or the Danjeon are damaged.
Rather, as he gained enlightenment through a duel with the Demon King, his body transformed once again, and the energy circulating through his blood vessels flowed unhindered like the Yangtze River.
The reason for this appearance is purely that the body could not withstand the excessive training.
At this point, I feel like an idiot for worrying that the Black Path guys wouldn’t accept the results of the duel.
No, now I just wish everyone would bring it on.
If I hadn’t gotten furious at those guys’ heinous acts, I wouldn’t have done something like this.
“Geom-ak. Are you really not going to attack? Do you not hold a grudge against me?”
When I called out Geomak’s name, he gasped in surprise like a child choking. ‘Hiccup’… A grown adult gasping…
“Evil! I, I must escape. I have to hurry!”
Sword Evil
He drags the evil one with the bandage on his leg and starts running backward.
The evil one cannot shake off even the hand of the evil sword and just stares blankly at me.
“……
Mukhyeolbang, is there anyone here who cannot accept the results of the duel? Then come up.
“…….”
The Mukhyeolbang members are glancing at each other, shouting only, “You get out,” “You get out.”
I am the other Eight Evils standing with the Black Palace Lord
I saw it.
“Is there no one among you who will avenge Buak?”
They exchanged glances, but no one stepped forward.
Then, the evil spear
He asked.
“Is the martial art you used… … the Sword Demon’s martial art?”
“Why are you asking when you’ve already seen it?”
Are you saying it’s true?
Chang-ak’s face stiffens.
The Black Swordsmen gathered at Yujangmun also became agitated and began to whisper amongst themselves.
Then are you saying that you are the Demon Lord’s disciple?
“I am a disciple of the Taeeulmun.”
“Then how are you using that martial art? Did you learn it yourself?”
The Demon Lord said that if anyone went around claiming to have learned even a single thing from him, he would break their legs.
I have an absolutely excellent memory, and I never, ever disobey a warning, especially from someone like the Demon King.
“no.”
“then……?”
I took it.
“Huh?”
Chang-ak opens his eyes wide.
The whispering among the Black Sect members grows louder.
Since the Demon Lord told me to say this, it’s not a lie. Of course it is.
They say he stole the martial arts from the Demon Sword.
“Crazy, does that even make sense?”
“Maybe it makes sense… They say he’s a joint successor of the Black Dao Alliance.”
“Ah! As expected of the Divine of the Black Path!”
Leaving aside the Black Dao Divine, what kind of bullshit is this about the Black Dao Alliance’s Joint Master?
“If your curiosity has been satisfied, come up quickly!”
I want to get rid of this awful feeling as soon as possible.
I want to receive a reward for all my hard work!
Ah, seeing how much he craves blood, it is certain that there is something strange about the Demon Sword’s martial arts.
As a born sage, there is no way I would ever feel the urge to beat someone to death.
We are employees of the Black Palace. It was Buak’s fault for getting involved in the Mukhyeolbang’s affairs in the first place.
As he does so, Chang-ak steps back and crosses his arms.
The Black Palace Lord glared at Chang-ak with a look of disbelief.
Chang-ak doesn’t back down and retorts with a look that says, “So what?”
Then isn’t there anyone coming out?
I looked at the group of black swordsmen and spoke.
Using the Black Dragon Sword as a staff, he took a couple of steps forward and spoke once again.
“I’m asking if anyone can come out.”
ssasak
The group of Black Swordsmen retreat a couple of steps back at the same time.
Let me take three steps forward again.
The Black Swordsmen retreat five steps back at the same time.
“No, am I some kind of germ?” The ‘Fight of the Undetermined’ ended like that.
At that meeting, the representative of Mukhyeolbang wrote a written agreement to compensate Yoo Jang-moon for the damages incurred so far and even for the bereaved families, and then left.
Yujangmun, which had been swarming with people, became completely empty in just half a day.
The empty space was filled only with the wreckage of the broken pavilion, walls, and main gate, adding to the gloomy atmosphere.
“Senior Brother, what on earth happened?”
Eunho looking at me with a bewildered expression.
I spoke while constantly drinking water.
“When you enter the stage of Jade, Gold, and Flower, the upper dantian opens, and mental images can be applied just like reality. This means that mental imagery training can become the same as actual training.”
So what?
“Isn’t the speed of the mind faster than the speed of reality? It is the best way to become strong in a short period of time. I will pass it on to you later.”
No. I just want to accumulate failures day by day in real time.
Eunho shivered as if he had seen something he shouldn’t have.
Actually, it is a method I wouldn’t really recommend either.
It was only possible for me because I have an absolute memory; if ordinary people were to fall into a delusion while practicing mental imagery, it would immediately lead to qi deviation.
It still makes me furious to think about it. What on earth was I doing, risking my life for doing that?
I know from the start that the Black Path guys are prone to being strong against the weak and weak against the strong, but isn’t this just too lacking in spirit?
Eunho, trembling all over, looked around and spoke.
“What will happen to Yoo Jang-moon now?”
Although they secured victory against the Mukhyeolbang and preserved the sect’s name, the atmosphere was not excited at all.
A member invited by the party is examining Jang Sa-gyeong’s condition, but it was reported that he has reached an irreversible state as his innate energy has been shattered.
If it hadn’t been for the doctor from the party family, he would have met his demise the moment the duel ended, but he has dragged it on until now.
Therefore, all of Yu Jang-mun’s disciples were gathered in one place, having their final conversation with Jang Sa-gyeong.
I turned to look at them, who were holding back their tears, and asked Eunho back.
“What do you think will happen?”
Eunho was lost in thought for a long time before speaking.
I’m not sure, but…
Wouldn’t it become even stronger in the future?
In his previous life, the Yujangmun clan was annihilated as soon as the Great War between the Righteous and Demonic broke out.
This was because the entire sect faced the Demonic Cult under the orders of Jeomchang without proper information.
And Jeomchang took no responsibility for it at all.
However, in this life, Yoo Jang-moon will move forward in a different form.
I thought of Jang Sa-gyeong, who created a different future for Yu Jang-mun.
I think so too.
A short while later, those who had exchanged their final farewells with Jang Sa-gyeong left the pavilion one by one.
Most of them were shedding tears, and although they bowed their heads to hide their unsightly appearance, they ultimately could not conceal the tears that kept flowing.
Eunho saw the scene and clamped his mouth shut.
I said to Eunho like that.
This is not something that will happen only to Yoo Jang-moon.
yes.”
Eunho will understand even with just this much. After all, he was such a bright child.
Young Hero Jin.
The head of the Yujangmun clan called out to me with eyes burning bright red.
“yes.”
The Munju wants to see you.
All right.”
I slowly rose from my seat. On either side of the room, Jang Sa-gyeong’s brothers and Jang Woo-jae were quietly seated.
And in front of me, Jang Sa-gyeong was smiling at me with a completely lifeless expression.
“Welcome, Young Hero Jin.”
As my internal energy accumulated and my sense of energy grew, I had no trouble sensing the other person’s presence without having to consciously pay attention.
However, Jang Sa-gyeong felt nothing at that moment.
It means that all the energy that makes him exist has dried up.
If it were not for the physician of the Dang family who continues to administer acupuncture, moxibustion, and infuse energy by Jang Sa-gyeong’s side even now, he would not have been able to sit and talk like this.
“I heard… that the Tang family brought you here two days ago. How did you know that I would tamper with your innate vital energy?”
Two days ago, I saw Hong Mun-gi from a past life in the appearance of Jang Sa-gyeong.
He, too, had no qualms about burning himself to save his disciples until the very end.
Maybe I.
He didn’t know if he saw Hong Mun-gi in Jang Sa-gyeong, whom he had failed to save in his previous life.
I just had that feeling.
Jang Sa-gyeong stared at me intently, then spoke with a gentle smile.
It seems the young hero has truly had some arduous experiences.
There must have been a wiser way to handle this. I apologize for my shortcomings.
Jang Sa-gyeong slowly shook his head.
“No. I have nothing more to wish for. I will never forget this kindness. I have told my children, and their children’s children, not to forget it either.”
At the words that sounded like a last will and testament, people burst into tears.
“Thank you very much, Young Hero Jin. I do not know what merit I accumulated in my past life, but thanks to you, I can close my eyes in peace.”
Jang Sa-gyeong looked at his son Jang Woo-jae and spoke.
Bring that.
Jang Woo-jae placed what was behind him in front of his father.
Jang Sa-gyeong pushed the wooden tray toward me with trembling hands.
A small gem of blue crystal lay on the tray.
It is called a wind chime.
“Wind spirit?”
An object not recorded even in my magnificent library.
“It is a relic of the progenitor, Biryu Divine Sword. It possesses the efficacy of being impervious to cold and heat, so it will be a useful item for a young hero like Jin who must race through the Jianghu.”
The founder’s relics?
I refused with alarm.
I did not do this expecting compensation in the first place. I cannot accept such a valuable item.
Jang Sa-gyeong smiled broadly.
“Young Hero Jin, that is why I offer this to you. What hero in this world would risk their own life without expecting anything in return?”
May your benevolent influence spread throughout the world, and may many people open their eyes
It contains my small wish that you do so.
I only moved to erase the nightmares in my memory…
“I didn’t act with that intention… are you thinking that?”
what?
Jang Sa-gyeong laughed as if he were glad.
“It seems that as the end approaches, things previously invisible become visible, Young Hero Jin. Do not worry. Regardless of your intentions, we have received a debt of gratitude from you that we can never repay. If I were to close my eyes without giving this to you, I feel I would become a ghost consumed by guilt even after death.”
Jang Sa-kyung making a terrible joke.
I bowed deeply and clenched my fist.
I will gratefully accept the gift from the clan leader.
As I raised my head, Jang Sa-gyeong met my eyes.
“How is it? Do you think I did a good job?”
I nodded at his question.
You were absolutely wonderful.
We looked into each other’s eyes for a moment and laughed.
The council member of the party family meets my eyes and shakes his head.
Now is truly the time for them to spend time among themselves.
I quietly left the room.
How can the moon be so bright?
As I stared blankly at the moon floating above Yujangmun, the sound of crying from inside the pavilion began to grow louder.
It would be nice if it were a little cloudy on a day like this.
Soon, the sound of crying spread throughout the entire Yujangmun.
