Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 548
Episode 548 Flame Demon God (4)
“…?!”
Dan Lihu looked north without realizing it.
‘what?’
Did I feel wrong?
‘It felt like blood spirit energy was exploding?’
Everyone who wielded blood sacred energy in this area was here. And there was no one who operated the blood god machine in earnest in the area that Dan Lihu could see.
‘Could it be Master?’
Dan Lihu, who was looking north with shaking eyes, quickly shook his head.
‘I guess I’m mistaken.’
The distance from here to Wudang Mountain was considerable.
Even if you unfold the divine law, it will take at least three or four days. Of course it wouldn’t be Master’s energy.
Rather, I thought that the reason why the blood spirit was spewing out was because of the hostility coming from the south.
“The air is getting hot.”
My skin already feels tingling.
If you go south from Hubuk, you will reach Honam. And in the northernmost part of Honam, Shingyo’s elite troops were stationed.
It wasn’t just Honam. The strongest troops of the Heavenly Demon God Church were distributed in other provinces adjacent to Honam.
Perhaps when the war begins, they will attack with terrifying force.
‘It’s unfortunate, but in terms of the quality of troops, that side is superior.’
The reason the Church of the Heavenly Demon was able to engage in a fierce battle against the martial arts in the central plains for a thousand years was thanks to the qualitative superiority of its troops that no other organization could surpass.
Of course, this side has an overwhelming advantage in terms of quantity. However, in terms of quality, it is bound to be inferior to the Heavenly Demon God Church.
‘But it’s okay.’
Wooooow.
The solar energy burned in the sun wheel wrapped around the wrist.
‘I’ll show you how to overpower quality with quantity.’
The Celestial Dragon’s techniques can be said to be the best in the world.
It was powerful, but in terms of usability, it could be said to be the best in the world. It may be difficult to attack extreme experts, but you can turn the tide of a troop battle by twisting the flow of nature.
That was the reason why the Heavenly Dragon Technique was dangerous. There is no better means of assisting troops in large-scale battles than the Heavenly Dragon Technique.
The world will soon find out. What a terrifying power the Heavenly Dragon Technique is.
The pursuit of power that changes with the passage of time. Dan Lihu had no doubt that the world would now be more enthusiastic about martial arts than martial arts.
“Full army advance.”
Grumble.
Dan Lihu advances with the imperial army Wu Cheon, led by the Five Dragons of the Qiaolong Dynasty.
As we move forward, step by step, the tension in the air becomes stronger.
Even he, who had acquired the fastest and most perfect steadfastness among the executioners while cultivating the Heavenly Dragon Flag, could not help but feel nervous at this moment.
A fight to take control of the world.
This is the beginning of a real all-out war. And the first fight begins with himself, the great disciple of the Emperor’s Commander-in-Chief.
Maybe it’s because I’m nervous, but I feel pressured. It was a feeling I had never felt before learning the Heavenly Dragon technique.
Dan Lihu smiled bitterly.
‘In the end, is there no such thing as complete immobility?’
It’s been a while since I took a deep breath.
“I’ll bury you properly.”
It was then.
Beep!
The sharp cry of a hawk was heard from across the northern sky.
Food!
The moment you think you’ve heard it, it’s right in front of you. It was one of the spiritual creatures raised by the imperial army.
When Dan Lihu stretched out his arm, a pure white hawk sat on his forearm.
‘Master?’
He hurriedly untied the letter from Mae’s ankle and unfolded it.
“…?!”
Dan Lihu’s eyes deepened.
‘Not the Honam front?’
Why did he suddenly give this order?
I checked the handwriting and seal just in case, but when I looked again, it was true that the teacher had sent it. In the first place, this Jeon Seo-eung could not have been dealt with unless it was Dam Sa-young.
‘What is the reason?’
The center is always best for a preemptive strike. It was common sense.
Dan Lihu felt embarrassed.
‘It’s frustrating because I can’t see you in person and talk to you.’
Of course, it is also possible to use a tactic close to the Ten Thousand Resonance Sounds through the Heavenly Dragon Flag.
However, not only does it consume a tremendous amount of internal strength, but there are limitations to the technique during recovery. The same was true for masters who had reached the level of perfection, although there was only a difference in degree.
In other words, it is a difficult tactic for him to choose as he is about to fight the first battle. Even the person answering the question must expend enormous amounts of energy.
‘Is it lack of experience?’
There has clearly been a change in Master’s heart.
But it’s not as easy to be sure as it used to be. Unlike before, I can’t see him right next to me.
This is the difficult thing about being a captain who manages troops. A misjudgment made by a person leading an army of over 5,000 troops could turn the battlefield against him.
‘I can’t help it.’
Anyway, this is an order from above. And now you are in the position of your hands and feet, not your head.
You must follow it unconditionally.
“All troops stop.”
Good!
When the Gyoryongjo stopped moving forward, the Five Heavenly Emperors also stopped walking.
They were surprisingly well-trained elite soldiers. When it came to moving as one body, the Imperial Army was overwhelming the Gyoryongjo.
“The striking point has been changed as of the current time.”
Dan Lihu looked to the right.
It was west.
“We are going to Guizhou.”
* * *
Ma Dong-pil knelt down.
“Master.”
“Are you here?”
He bowed his head and looked at Seo-ryang again.
Ma Dong-pil’s eyes wavered.
‘As expected, he has changed.’
After gaining great enlightenment from iron-blooded resistance, the leader changed once again.
The sight of him sitting on a small rock and playing with Geumho looks very relaxed. The calm air of that leisure made his atmosphere even more mysterious.
It seemed as if several soft fireflies were circling around him. It was a strange magical power that made you stare blankly.
“It was a lot of hard work.”
“no.”
thud. thud.
King Tiger walked behind Ma Dong-pil.
A large body weighing more than 1,000 pounds. The bright red pupils turned towards Xiliang.
Sabak.
King Tiger, who approached Seoryang, fell down. Even when he was lying face down, his height was as high as the rock on which Seoyang was sitting.
Xi Liang said, stroking King Hu’s huge head.
“How do you feel?”
“yes?”
“It means I don’t have to rest for a few days.”
Ma Dong-pil’s eyes sparkled.
“of course.”
Xu Liang nodded.
“I will be leaving school tonight. “Be sure to prepare your mind before then.”
“I follow your orders.”
Just like that, Ma Dong-pil resigned from his position. Since it was a close escort, it would have been right to stick to Seoryang right away, but now was not the time. Ma Dong-pil knew it through instinct.
Seoryang smiled as he looked at Ma Dong-pil’s back as he walked away.
“Our Dongpil has grown up a lot too.”
I remembered the first time I saw Ma Dong-pil.
The sight of Ma Dong-pil mouthing formalities and laws with an extremely stiff face was frustrating itself.
That frustration sometimes gave him trust, but at least at the time, Seoryang did not like Ma Dong-pil this much. To begin with, I wasn’t in a state where I could feel deep affection for anyone.
But what about now?
Ma Dong-pil, his subordinate and comrade in arms, was already like his flesh and blood. At first, I never imagined that I would become this close to Ma Dong-pil.
“Maybe it wasn’t me who tried to get closer, but maybe that guy was trying to get closer.”
Although he said he didn’t, Ma Dong-pil always wanted to be like Seo-ryang.
I wanted to grow up as fast as he did, I wanted to reach the heights he had, and I wanted to see the world the way he saw it.
‘Besides, he managed to grow to this point.’
The absolute martial arts skills he has built up through countless training and extreme patience are no less than those of a teenage expert.
I knew it would grow big, but honestly, I didn’t expect it to grow this much. Although he was calm in front of others, you don’t know how shocked he was when Ma Dong-pil first ascended to the pole.
“At this level, I am no different from a close escort, but rather a disciple.”
At that time, a voice was heard.
“If you are going to take on a disciple, please tell me first.”
Xu Liang turned his head.
Ho Yaoseong appeared in a disheveled appearance. I came here after working all day.
“why?”
“Why? “I think I will feel at ease if I can predict in advance how the battle for succession will unfold.”
Xu Liang chuckled.
“I have no thoughts yet.”
“Of course not now.”
“I don’t know if I will continue to take on disciples in the future.”
“Isn’t that difficult? “You must unconditionally decide on a successor to whom the position of leader will be transferred in the future.”
“Is it really necessary to be a disciple? “If a useful talent appears, you can hand it over.”
“Are you serious?”
“uh.”
Ho Yaoseong, who thought it was a joke, was surprised.
Xu Liang chuckled.
“I don’t have much talent for raising someone. “It may just be a little help at an important moment.”
“Wouldn’t that ultimately mean teaching well?”
“is it?”
“of course. “I think being able to capture important moments and provide appropriate help at that moment ultimately means that a teacher has outstanding capabilities.”
“Well, if you have the ability, you can do that.”
Xu Liang smiled bitterly.
“I guess I have more affection than I thought.”
It wasn’t a joke this time either.
Hu Yaosheng asked seriously.
“Don’t you like the idea of a fight over the successor?”
“The relationship between priests is not simply a relationship of exchanging martial arts. “When teaching martial arts, one follows not only the teacher’s enlightenment and thoughts, but also his or her heart.”
“….”
“But like my teacher, I don’t want to become a teacher who doesn’t give affection and only throws martial arts skills.”
Of course, Lee Cheon-sang couldn’t help it.
Lee Cheon-sang, who ascended to the world of mythology, was a half-seon (half-seon) who had lost most of his human emotions before meeting Seoryang. It’s not that I intentionally didn’t give it to her, it’s that I couldn’t give it to her even if I wanted to.
Seoliang was different.
I was able to get a glimpse of a part of the myth through a side road that was close to expedient, but I couldn’t imagine how long it would take to get a glimpse of that state again. Maybe you won’t be able to climb until you die.
That means he still has to live as a human being.
Neither did he have the confidence to give affection to him, nor did he have the confidence to calmly watch the scene of competition among the disciples to whom he had given love.
Hu Yaosheng smiled.
“That’s befitting a religious leader.”
“That’s an interesting reaction, isn’t it?”
“Are you saying it’s fascinating?”
“I thought someone like a religious leader would say something like, ‘Is that what you need to say? We need to be more decisive,’ etc.”
“How can I post something like that on my topic?”
“haha.”
“However, if you do not want to see competition, please select only one person with good character and nurture him/her well. “That’s all.”
Xu Liang smiled bitterly.
“It’s harder in a way. “Raising only one person.”
“You raised Ma Howie well, right?”
“haha!”
Xu Liang smiled and shook his head.
“It’s like worrying about washing the dishes even though you haven’t even cooked anything.”
“Yes, of course.”
“So, have you finished your work?”
“yes.”
Xu Liang stood up and looked down at Huyao Castle with clear eyes.
“Please take care of me while I’m away.”
“Do not worry.”
“If the fighting gets into full swing, there may come a time when you too have to come to the front lines.”
“I am prepared.”
Hu Yaosheng lowered his head.
“There is still much to do. So I won’t see you off. Please be careful.”
“You too, be careful.”
Xi Liang took a step forward. King Tiger followed him.
It was then.
“….”
Xu Liang stopped walking.
Ho Yo-seong looked at him with puzzled eyes.
“Why are you doing that?”
“….”
“Master?”
“It has changed.”
“yes?”
Xiliang’s eyes turned to the west.
His divine vision passed through Guangdong Province, went on to Honam, and even reached Hubei.
“…Is this correct? It seems like the direction of the enemy has changed?”
