Chapter 550
< The Return of the God of War Side Story Episode 50 >
Boom!
The flying sword was aimed precisely at Jang Sam-tae. It was so powerful that you could feel its power the moment you wielded it.
A thick cloud of dust rose up along with a deafening boom.
“Hahahaha….”
Chu Jakhan pursed his lips as he engraved the scene in his eyes.
It’s a move that puts all your effort into it.
A power of a different order of magnitude than that shown so far was unleashed, and the target was hit perfectly, revealing the majesty of the Four Emperors of the Church of Heaven and Earth.
This time, that bastard…!
“ah-! Fuck! “You almost got lost!?”
“You idiot. Gyeong-gong, are you planning on making soup and eating it?”
The corners of Chu Jakhan’s mouth trembled at the voice he heard at that moment. This is a sword that has been poured out with extreme power. I thought that no one could stand still, as everything had been risked.
But what is this sound?
Doesn’t it look like he’s fine and hasn’t even suffered the slightest damage?
Chu Zakhan looked straight ahead, wondering if anything could happen.
Soon the cloudy dust slowly cleared and the situation was revealed.
“…?!”
What you see is an old man wearing a mask.
There are clear signs of destruction around him, who is wearing a black robe, but there is no sign of any damage behind where he is standing.
“What the…”
“That’s pretty cool, kid. haha-! “It’s been a while since I’ve received a sword lecture, and it’s quite powerful so it would be perfect to use when tapping on the shoulder.”
Sadohak lightly shook his hands and smiled.
There is no doubt that it was a move in which the greatest amount of effort was poured into it, but wherever you look, it is clear that not even a single hem of Sadohak’s clothes has been cut off.
In Chu Zuohan’s mind, Jang Sam-tae and everyone around him should have collapsed and vomited blood, but the reality was very different from that.
I was shaking –
my body was shaking.
How can this be?
It is not a simple exam.
Wasn’t it a move he made while using the strongest martial arts that had been given to him by his religious leader? But how can it be that no one was hurt?
“Hey, this guy. “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t come forward?”
“As I keep looking at it, my skin starts to ache…”
Nam Gung-cheon clicked his tongue and moved slowly, as if he was dumbfounded. If Sadohak broke his promise and stepped forward, there is no reason for him not to step forward as well.
Soon, he walked over to where Namgung So-hye was exhausted and gently pressed her shoulder to make her sit down.
“Ha, Grandpa….”
“You worked hard, hehehe – take a little rest.”
“Ha, you should have come forward sooner.”
Namgung Sohye shook her head and sighed in relief. She is confident in one-on-one situations, but she cannot continue to deal with such overwhelming numbers.
This is because her strength is also not infinite.
Moreover, the blades raining down from all directions made it impossible to let go of the tension even for a moment, which inevitably eroded my mental strength even more.
At that time, Namgungcheon glanced at the people coming up from the bottom of the mountain.
As I watched these people constantly climbing, I felt like I could understand a little bit why Namgung Sohye was having a hard time.
“At times like this. “You can make them back off by scaring them.”
“yes?”
I was angry at the words that were said out of nowhere.
I didn’t notice it when I was watching from afar, but when I saw Namgung So-hye’s condition, it seemed like she was getting angry for no reason. He slowly held the sword in one hand and unleashed his energy.
Wooooow-!
The power was condensed with a strong swordsmanship.
It felt similar to the sword strike that Chu Zuohan had thrown a while ago, but the power would never be the same.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!
As soon as he swung his sword, the ground split apart.
The earth shook and the ground was dug up and turned over. Countless trees were cut down like tofu, and rocks were shattered, scattering countless fragments in all directions.
“Huh?!”
“Ugh!”
“What… what now?”
“I’ve never heard anything like this…”
“A monster… a monster…”
People’s voices could be heard from all over the place.
My whole body cringed at the incredible power I saw before my eyes. How can you not be afraid when only one person can destroy dozens of areas?
The steps of those who were approaching stopped.
“Isn’t this a bit harsh?”
“Hehehe – I have to do this to not be able to come up. Isn’t that right, old man?”
“joy! “If it were me, I would have killed them all.”
“It happened because of a misunderstanding, so what if I kill you?” Hehehe-”
Sadohak shook his head.
Showing overwhelming power is a good way, but a more obvious method is to instill fear by laying numerous corpses around.
So that it cannot climb up again.
“By the way, these guys seem different from those over there. What are you guys?”
Sadohak frowned and looked back at Chu Jakhan.
The moment they met his dark eyes, everyone trembled.
What are the interest rates?
How can a person develop that kind of power?
Not only was it not enough to easily block a move full of extreme effort, but the sight of dozens of surrounding fields being devastated so easily was engraved in my eyes.
Who could possibly do something like that?
The other Four Emperors of the Church of Heaven and Earth?
Or a religious leader?
no.
No matter how great the martial arts skills there are in the Church of Heaven and Earth, there is no one with that much power.
A divine power that is hard to believe even with your own eyes.
It makes one wonder if this is a person who has reached the level of anti-seon.
Without realizing it, my whole body stiffened.
My mind turned white and my body began to tremble.
Overwhelming numbers?
A scheme to use Jeongdo warriors?
Those things mean nothing to them.
‘Cyo… I have to inform the sect leader…’
That’s what Chu Jak-han wanted to do.
One way or another, we must inform the religious leader of this fact.
They say that there are people in this martial arts world that they can’t handle.
However, the foot did not move, and the masked man in black was slowly closing the distance and approaching.
“What do you mean?”
* * *
Among the numerous peaks of Wudang Mountain, it is the highest and most pointed. However, because it is the highest, you can see the entire shamanic landscape.
Even though it was a dark night, Dan Woo-hyeon, who had climbed to that place, was looking intently at the small burial mound.
-My name is Taegongjin.
This person suddenly appeared a long time ago.
The sight of him smiling brightly and asking for a favor was vivid. Dan Woo-hyeon killed everyone who stood in his way, but his confidence and composure made him reluctant to cut off his head.
What would have happened if he had cut off his head at that time?
Maybe Dan Woo-hyeon wasn’t here right now.
“You said bad luck was fate, right?”
This is something Tae Gong-jin always said.
Bad luck is also fate.
I didn’t know it at the time, but thinking about it now, I thought that maybe I was representing the relationship between Dan Woo-hyeon and Tae Gong-jin.
Being trapped in ice for a thousand years was also the result of the blood demon’s resurrection and the resulting struggle.
Because everything from one to ten came from his head.
It seemed like it took a really long time to figure that out.
“But I don’t feel bad about it.”
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled as he uncorked the bottle of alcohol he brought with him.
The moment I opened the lid, the strong smell of alcohol spread out.
He brought it for Tae Gong-jin, who always drank strong alcohol, saying that Hwaju was the best.
I slowly poured it over the burial mound.
“I brought it because I didn’t think I would have any more to drink.”
There is nothing more to face or deal with.
The long-standing relationship between the two ended ten years ago.
We also know that Tae Gong-jin’s body buried here is nothing more than something he created. So I also know that all these actions have no meaning.
Nevertheless, Dan Woo-hyeon doesn’t seem to be particularly concerned.
To commemorate someone, you don’t necessarily have to be there.
“It’s your favorite peak. So I thought this was the best place.”
Cutting off the last remaining bond of fate, Dan Woo-hyeon poured out all the remaining alcohol. His expression became a little lighter, as if he was shaking off something that had been buried for a long time.
“Now, we won’t have to come back again… and we won’t have anything to do with it again. So, I will cut off all bad ties and leave.”
Dan Woo-hyeon didn’t just think that all of these things were bad. He was imprisoned for a thousand years due to the Sinseonnori, but because of that, he met Dansomi and gained other relationships around him.
During the thousand years of silence, my murderous intent disappeared to a degree that would have been unthinkable in the past, and I began to understand emotions little by little.
For those who knew Dan Woo-hyeon’s past, this was a huge development.
So without realizing it, I turned my back with a smile on my face.
It’s an amazing scenery.
From the highest peak, I could see the entire Wudang Mountain.
Although it was quite different from the appearance of the shaman that he remembered from the past, Dan Woo-hyeon began to move slowly, looking at the current Shaman Mountain again.
It was as if erasing the past and incorporating the present.
Is it because? The steps going down are quite light.
The moment we came down from the high peak, a white tiger appeared with Dansomi on its back, as if it had been waiting for us.
Unlike Baekho’s relaxed expression, Dansomi looked quite impatient.
“Have you come this far?”
“That was a big problem!”
“Looks like something happened again.”
“A lot of these strange people came here…! “He and my sister were fighting hard, but the grandfathers were just watching…”
Dansomi tried hard to explain the situation.
But I felt like I had absolutely no idea how to say this.
Dan Woo-hyeon lightly held Dan So-mi’s hand as she was struggling. As his energy gently seeped into her, Dansomi’s expression calmed down a bit.
“Ha… So.”
“Have you calmed down?”
“Eh… yeah, it’s okay.”
Dansomi stroked her chest and let out a small sigh. The figure was so calm that it was hard to believe that it had been so flustered just a moment ago.
“But I…!”
“…I think it would be a good idea to go soon.”
Looking at Dan So-mi’s worried face, Dan Woo-hyeon lightly stroked her head. Eventually, he began to walk slowly, and as if he had been waiting, the wind blew and passed by him.
“It’s a good wind.”
