Episode 1233.
Kwarung!
The sound of thunder continued to echo through the clear sky.
Bu Eun-seol, who had been using the land flight technique, arrived at the place where the screams had been heard.
Chae-ang! Chang!
The sound of clashing weapons echoed continuously in the deep forest.
Let's head there quickly,
“……!”
Bu-eun-seol's eyes became sharp.
In the clearing of the forest, a woman with torn clothes was lying there.
In front of him, three men with gloomy eyes were fighting an old man who was holding the youngest child and was covered in blood.
Even at a glance.
The old man appeared to be the teacher of the fallen woman, and the three were clearly of the same age.
The old man's clothes were extremely shabby, but he was quite agile in swinging his sword.
Judging from the fact that he was using the Pungyang Swordsmanship, it seems he was once a disciple of the Pungyang Swordsmanship.
“The old man is persistent!”
One of the three men with his arms exposed spread his fingers with a sneer.
Five blasts of wind shot out, digging into the old man's vital points.
ping!
But the wind disappeared in an instant before it could even reach the old man's body.
Bu Eun-seol took action.
“Are you another subordinate of the Empress Dowager?”
Following the fight between Cheon Seong-mun, Jeong Yong-gak, and Heuk Sal-mun, the sudden appearance of Chae Hwa-eum-jeok?
Statistically speaking, it is nonsense.
“You came after all.”
The three Chaehwa-eumjeok smiled sinisterly as Bu Eun-seol descended to the ground.
“Soulless Lord, let’s end this now!”
They surrounded the swollen snow in the shape of the letter "品" and their eyes flashed.
At that moment, a black demon statue appeared behind Bu Eun-seol's back and pierced his back.
They were the masters of the True Demon Palace who used the soul magic.
After perfectly predicting the time and location of his arrival, he deployed his vicious tactics.
Shoooooo.
But then something strange happened.
Suddenly, the statue of the god of magic disappeared in an instant,
“Ugh, eww!”
Didn't the bodies of the Empress Dowager's subordinates, who were imitating the sound of the Chaehwa along with the screams, suddenly burst into flames?
Bu-eun-seol's eyes were red and swollen.
Without even having to touch them, he immediately unleashed the Great Jeolhajeongjingi and burned their bodies.
"how."
They looked down at their own bodies in disbelief as they were burning brightly.
They were all masters of the Jinmagung, and the usual martial arts techniques did not work on them.
But how can all your strength disappear in an instant, and your body be burned by mere extreme martial arts?
“Because they were so caught up in that convenient power, the martial artists must have looked ridiculous.”
Gong Gap Gyeong.
Bu Eun-seol knew in advance that the men imitating Chae Hwa-eum were masters of Jinma Palace.
The power of destruction of worlds was immediately unleashed.
Even with this gapja's history, you can use the Yeolha Daejeongjingi as much as you want.
Phew!
But then something unexpected happened.
I felt a sharp pain in my back and my body became paralyzed.
The old man, who was fighting them while covered in blood, suddenly took out an ancient dagger and stabbed Bu-eun-seol in the back.
“Damro.”
The moment it is embedded in the body, it has the ability to make it impossible to move a single finger and all of one's strength is shattered.
It was the Damro Sword, one of the ten most famous swords in the martial arts world.
“He is truly displaying a strange martial art that not only destroys his enemies but also his own strength.”
At that moment, one of the Empress Dowager's subordinates, whose body was burning, laughed heartily and said:
“So, I used a spell to seduce the old man and his disciple who lived in this deep valley and led them to an ambush.”
The previous swelling theory.
In his father's note, he encountered an assassin from the Jinmagung Palace who used bats, and defeated him with the power of the Gonggeukgyeong and chains.
However, as he was dying, he reported to the Empress Dowager the power of the Gonggeukgyeong that Bu Eun-seol had achieved through some kind of harmony.
“I guess he would have been able to leisurely block an ambush like that carried out by an ordinary old man without much caution.”
The Empress Dowager's subordinate continued speaking with a sinister smile, as if he felt no pain even though his body was burning.
“You probably didn’t expect that he would use the Damro Sword to perform the technique of releasing energy and making no sound.”
It was a truly meticulous plan.
That old man was nothing more than a second-rate swordsman's disciple who had never cultivated his inner strength.
That's why his presence posed no threat to Bu Eun-seol, and even if he had aimed his sword at her, she could have blocked it with enough leeway.
The Empress Dowager took advantage of that very loophole.
After casting a spell on the old man to take control of his will, he gave him the ancient sword called Damro.
It is a method of attacking with lightning speed, completely erasing any trace of movement.
“If you were hit by the Damro Sword while your own strength was diminishing, then… not only was your body paralyzed, but all your energy would have been drained?”
If the Damro Sword is hit, even the best swordsman in the world will be unable to move his body and his internal energy will be shattered.
It is known that if the sword is completely embedded in the body, the person will die.
“Hehehe. Hahahaha!”
A man whose skin was almost burnt and who looked like a skeleton.
He burst into laughter, looking at the swollen snow that couldn't move.
“You too will die soon.”
Hurruruk.
The Empress Dowager's men, who had been burning like skeletons, eventually fell to the ground as a handful of ashes.
“Huhhhh.”
At that moment, the old man's eyes turned white and he began to twist the sword stuck in the back of the swollen eye.
Even though they were all dead, the spell still remained.
The old man is trying to tear apart the swollen body that cannot move a single finger.
Kkuddeuk.
The old man thrust his sword in with all his might.
If you just pierce the body's vital energy and push the tip of the sword into the blood vessel, the swelling will die immediately.
“It’s okay.”
At that time, Bu-eun-seol, who thought her body was paralyzed, slowly reached out and lightly pushed the old man down.
“I deliberately took a stab at them because I was worried about what they would say.”
He had guessed that all of this was a trap by the Empress Dowager, and he had already figured out Talgimusung's method.
Just because I know full well that I won't say anything that I know will capture or torture them.
They pretended to be ambushed on purpose.
That way, he'll be sure he's dead and leak any information he can.
“You didn’t get much out of it?”
However, the Empress Dowager's subordinates only cursed and did not reveal any other information.
Tingling.
He sighed as he felt the area around where the sword had been stuck slowly becoming numb.
“It is indeed a famous sword.”
When struck by the Damro Sword while the Gonggeukgyeong is open.
In fact, my body was so paralyzed that I felt cold, and it was difficult to even release the power of the Extinction Sutra.
'Is discovering one of Gonggeukgyeong's weaknesses the only gain?'
Since the Gonggeukgyeong was still in its infancy, there were many limitations that came with its outstanding abilities.
And the process of checking those restrictions one by one is itself an act of raising one's level of ignorance.
You must be aware of the limitations.
As the level rises, those conditions will naturally be broken.
Flash!
A sharp light bloomed from Bu-eun-seol's eyes.
Turn back the enemy's strength with just one sip of the essence.
By deploying the technique of breaking through and counterattacking, he pushed back the penetrating Damro Sword with all his might.
Rain!
This is the history of Gapja, but Bu Eun-seol's anti-extreme method has already entered the seventh level.
Thump thump.
The blade of the Damro Sword embedded in his back began to crack and soon began to fall apart as dust.
One of the peerless swords that had been passed down through generations in the martial arts world was destroyed forever by his hands.
Gulp.
As the sword shattered, blood flowed from the old man's mouth.
“Huh?”
The old man's blurry eyes returned to clear focus and he came to his senses.
“What the heck is this?”
The old man looked around, and soon found his disciple lying miserably, and screamed.
“Dohaya! Dohaya!”
The old man hurriedly hugged her, but soon lost all strength and collapsed.
“Great Hero!”
The old man only then discovered the swollen tongue and pleaded.
“Please save this child!”
Bu Eun-seol immediately checked the woman's condition without delay.
Fortunately, only the clothes were torn, and there were no other injuries or unusual features.
But no matter how much I tried, consciousness did not return.
Woof.
I tried injecting anti-extreme energy, but there was still no response.
'weird.'
If he was under the influence of a psychic, there was no way he wouldn't recognize it.
Although her body was fine, the woman did not regain consciousness.
'If I stay with them, it will only harm them.'
The Empress Dowager is testing herself by spending enormous amounts of manpower and money.
If you stay with them under the pretense of treating them, you will end up harming yourself.
“I’ll take you to the village doctor. Let’s go there.”
Without hesitation, Bu Eun-seol performed his flying technique, leaving the old man and the woman floating in the air.
Gulp.
The wound from the Damro Sword was still not healed and was bleeding, but he paid no attention and continued to use his divine technique.
Since you have reached the gap level, most wounds will heal on their own.
The energy that was tied to the gallbladder sword was too strong and did not recover easily.
Percussion.
Bu Eun-seol, who arrived at the hospital in Geundong, laid the woman down inside, took out a slip of paper, and put it in the old man's hand.
“With this money, I can treat my disciple and still have some left over.”
The old man and the woman suffered needlessly because of him.
He said with an apologetic expression.
“When you recover, do not go into the deep mountains and valleys, but live comfortably in the holy city.”
And then he used his land flight technique again and left. But, not even half an hour had passed since he had used his new technique.
―Kayaaaa!
A desperate scream spread far and wide from somewhere.
It was a scream spreading from the village I had just arrived at.
'no way.'
Bu Eun-seol, who had a bad feeling about this, immediately headed back to the village.
It was a mess there.
When we returned to the village, the first thing we saw was the body of an old man lying in front of the doctor.
He had a deep wound on his neck, and his eyes were wide open, his expression frozen in disbelief.
The door to the doctor's office was shattered, and inside, screams and the sound of something breaking resonated loudly.
Boom! Bang!
All over town people were attacking each other.
Neighbors were swinging their clubs at neighbors, friends at friends, and even parents at their children.
From their mouths flowed crimson blood, and their eyes were bloodshot.
“Kwaaaaak!”
A middle-aged man with a sickle lunged at a woman who appeared to be his wife, and an old woman tried to hit a neighbor's child on the head with a rock.
Boom! Boom!
In the market, five or six people were tangled up, biting and scratching each other.
Their faces and bodies were already covered in blood. Yet, they continued to attack each other with even greater ferocity.
Woojikkeun!
The whole town was gripped by madness.
Screams, cries, and the sounds of slaughter were turning the peaceful village into hell.
And in the center of it all, the woman who had been unconscious earlier was standing tall with her eyes wide open.
“Are you saying you deliberately intended to take me to the village?”
Only then did Bu Eun-seol grasp the situation.
The woman was not unconscious, but was a medium for spreading the occult.
As soon as she was brought to the village, she unleashed an evil aura as if she had been waiting for it, causing the villagers to fight each other like crazy.
If this happens, it will all be his fault, and even if it isn't, he will feel guilty.
Shh.
The woman smiled blood-soaked at the sight of the swollen eye.
The eyes, with only black pupils remaining on the pale skin, were truly the appearance of a ghost appearing in broad daylight.
Jiying.
As the situation became critical, Bu-eun-seol's right eye began to feel hot.
The power of Gogeomrim has been activated.
“That is.”
Then a strange sight appeared.
Tens of thousands of transparent energy branches extending from that towering woman.
Isn't it connected to the heads of the villagers?
“Is that so?”
To stop this bizarre thing, we must kill that woman.
But if we kill that woman, the spirits of the villagers will be destroyed.
“That you have properly identified my weaknesses.”
The Empress Dowager used the secret arts of the Jinmagung Palace to exploit her weaknesses by touching the women around her.
Afterwards, he realized that he was not only weak in emotions, but that he was walking on an extremely correct path… …
Now, he is trying to put innocent civilians who have nothing to do with him in danger and put them in dire straits once again.
-Well, what should we do?
It seems like the Empress Dowager is smiling sinisterly.
If he were to leave like this, the commotion in this village would spread to the city.
Many people will be injured or killed.
“Even after ascending to the position of Empress Dowager, do you still treat the people like mere pawns?”
There was conflict in Bu Eun-seol's eyes.
“If I kill that woman, I will never be able to escape the accusation of harming innocent people, no matter what I do.”
To save more people.
Should I kill the women and civilians here and turn my name around?
“Even if I leave, I won’t continue to kill innocent people indefinitely.”
What if I just leave like this?
Many will be hurt or killed, but… …from now on, innocent people will never be harmed again.
Even if it means making a little sacrifice.
Will you be a hero who upholds honor for a greater cause?
Will you become a villain with a dirty reputation in order to save as many people as possible?
Percussion.
Bu Eun-seol unfolded his divine power and in an instant stood before a woman named Do-hwa, about ten chapters in front of him.
“I reject both of those options.”
He lowered himself and released all his strength.
Gulp.
The hair, eyes, and fabric of the swollen face began to slowly turn colorless, like a washed-out ink painting.
At the same time, the civilians were fighting each other like crazy due to the waves of occultism she was spreading.
Urrrrrr.
Suddenly, everyone ran towards Bu-eun-seol.
Whoa! Whoa!
They began to stab and beat the swollen tongue with the stones and sticks they had.
The power of Gogeomrim, Gonggeukgyeong, and Illusionary Fuwan.
Using the power of Gogeomrim to grasp the situation, he unfolds the realm of destruction.
The woman limited the power of the occultism she was spreading to those around her.
Through the secret of illusion.
It made the woman and the villagers pour out their anger on themselves.
This was a trap from which there was absolutely no escape.
The mysterious power passed down through generations in the martial arts world, and the greatest martial arts of the time, created by the peerless martial arts master Inma.
And for the first time in the history of martial arts, the power of the martial arts world was combined to achieve this miracle.
Whoa! Whoa!
The villagers, as if possessed, swung their blades madly at the swollen snow.
Even for an evil spirit, taking control of the minds of so many people was by no means an easy task.
In order to turn back Yeon-ha's mind, I studied and learned the teachings of Hwasimbihak from Han Sang-ja's notes.
Even the illusion of success is possible thanks to the rapid progress and infinite depth of achievement.
Phew! Gulp.
Because the swelling snow was surrounded by the realm of destruction, it suffered great damage even from simple attacks.
Although the wound was healed by the power of the Gonggeukgyeong, it did not alleviate the pain of the flesh being torn and bones creaking.
But Bu-eun-seol kept her eyes closed.
He stood tall, only letting out fatal attacks.
Now, I am putting all my effort into creating a fantasy world.
This was because the secret art of psychic control could be disrupted if one attempted to make a large movement or use an unlearned technique.
How much time has passed?
“…….”
Finally, when the connection to the psychic power was completely severed, the villagers gradually came to their senses and freed themselves from their anger.
“Ugh, uh.”
They have it in front of their eyes.
I jumped at the sight of the swollen snow that had turned into a blood clot.
Gulp.
Although he was dizzy from losing so much blood, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the villagers were okay.
'Phew.'
The Empress Dowager uses the secret arts of the Jinmagung Palace and innocent civilians like this.
It would have corrupted people of righteous hearts.
But to Bu Eun-seol, who not only created a new realm of learning, but also combined various ultra-secret arts.
This method does not work.
“This kind of thing can’t be planned in a short period of time.”
From the evil deeds of the Jeokdo Gate to the all-out war between Cheonseong Gate and Jeongryonggak, the surprise attack of Heuksal Gate, and even traps using civilians…
These are things that cannot be planned and implemented in a short period of time.
“We’ve tried this same plan before.”
That is, the Empress Dowager is a trap like this.
That it was spread to someone with righteous beliefs, not a magician, and that it was being used once more.
"then."
A flash of light passed through his eyes as he remembered something.
But then,
Urrrrrr.
Another change has occurred.
―Ugh!
―Ugh!
Aren't the three hundred or so assassins rushing towards him all at once, killing the villagers?
“Hoo hoo hoo hoo.”
The swelling was so absurd that I burst out laughing.
The Empress Dowager prepared for the failure of even this plan.
He erased the traces of the evil that had been spread among the villagers and prepared troops to attack him.
“Are you sacrificing the people just to drive me into a corner?”
A black fog was rising from his entire body.
“Okay, let’s hang out.”
I cannot just turn a blind eye to the atrocities that kill the villagers.
No, I can't forgive you.
Wood thud.
Murderous spirit, madness, and magic.
Uncontrollable emotions flowed through my bloodstream and spread throughout my body.
Clank.
Bu Eun-seol lowered his posture, holding the silent sword behind his back.
It was a unique rising technique that Chiljima had used in the past, but he was not aware of it.
