Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 165
Episode 165
The essence of darkness (5)
The next morning.
Buuuuung!
The light dragon cutting through the air sparkled in the sunlight.
“Hmm.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s body, drenched in sweat, was trembling slightly.
It was the first time I practiced with all my might after breaking through the barrier of martial arts. Since it was not possible to unleash a technique full of destructive power, detailed internal power control was used to prevent the surrounding objects from being destroyed.
‘I still can’t control it well.’
Rather, it was easier to use the blue dragon technique that I had recently learned. This was because the Blue Dragon Ball itself focused on evasion and counterattack, minimizing the waste of power.
On the other hand, the main attack is a vicious killing technique, and the white tiger is a forward-looking attack that knows no retreat. Hyeonmu Gong is a defense mechanism that cannot be penetrated by anything, but if its power is not controlled, loopholes are created.
‘No matter how difficult it is to control the power of the other three gods than the Blue Dragon, I can’t believe there is such a difference even though I learned it a long time ago.’
Yeon Ho-jeong clicked his tongue inwardly.
‘It’s because of Byeokna Jin-gyeol.’
By learning the Blue Dragon, the Four Gods’ Energy was completed, and the completed Four Gods’ Energy was raised to a higher level through the effect of coexistence.
The problem is byeoknajingyeol. Byeokna Jin-gyeol, the foundation of the Four Gods, grew on his own and achieved greatness in the Ten Stars in order to attain a rank suitable for the high concentration of energy.
‘I have to completely make it mine from the beginning and then touch Sasinmu. ‘Sasinmu is only an eggplant’s role.’
Byeoknajingyeol was different from Hongcheongi. If Hong Cheon-gi was only aiming to increase his internal strength, this problem would not have been so noticeable.
‘But Hongcheongi can’t go beyond that. One way or another, it’s all my fault.’
When a problem arises, I know how to take responsibility seriously without looking for excuses. It was one of Yeonhojeong’s strengths.
‘If I refine Byeokna Jin-gyeol at this point and melt all the five great gods…’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
‘I guess I’ll have to ask my father tonight.’
Unfortunately, my father is not currently at home.
Although it is the same work, even the work done is not the same. Yeonwi had an excellent eye for commerce, and for a time he took on the role of advisor in managing the funds of the Murim League.
Along with Zhuge Wenhu, the busiest person among the Dukes was Yan Wei.
“Are you finished training?”
“hmm?”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Mukbi.
Before I knew it, Mukbi was drenched in sweat. Yeon Ho-jeong was training before she even came to the sponsorship, so it must be very difficult for her.
“Is there any progress?”
Mukbi smiled bitterly.
“well.”
In fact, she was also an expert who was just around the corner from reaching the limit of martial arts. In order to meet that wall of enlightenment, you will need not only simple training but also deep patience.
Yeon Ho-jeong looked up at the sky.
‘There’s plenty of time.’
Yeon Ho-jeong, who fixed the Gwangryongbu, spoke to Mukbi.
“how is it? “Trying to shoot one shot.”
“yes?”
“They say that enlightenment is important to build a higher state. But, surprisingly, enlightenment is not that big of a deal.”
Curiosity appeared on Mukbi’s face.
These are the words of an expert who, like no one else, broke through the barrier of no end. Regardless of your closeness, it is worth listening to.
“sure?”
“Before that, what do you think enlightenment is?”
“Enlightenment is literally enlightenment.”
Yeon Ho-jeong clicked his tongue.
“How did you achieve that level? “Did you have a flash of insight?”
“Ah…”
“No?”
Mukbi nodded with a nervous expression.
“I just worked hard and before I knew it…”
“That’s it. Working hard. But that’s the basics, and what’s important is how much useful effort you put in.”
“A useful effort?”
“Do you remember why I taught you Hongcheongi?”
Mukbi’s eyes sparkled.
“I remember.”
“Your Nine Dragon Archery skills did not improve even though you learned Hongcheongi. However, through training with Hong Cheon-gi and baktu, I was able to add sensible marksmanship to archery.”
“…!”
“It is true that you should aim for a higher place, but it is also important whether you have gained enough from where you are now.”
Mukbi’s eyes wavered.
Yeon Ho-jeong knocked on the Gwangryongbu.
“My martial arts Sasinmu truly begins after I have learned all four martial arts. In other words, I was fully prepared to break through the barrier of martial arts even before I obtained the Blue Dragon Ball.”
“I see.”
“Don’t just look up, look to the side too. “If you look around and feel around, you will soon find yourself on a higher level than before.”
Enlightenment is ultimately just a play on words. Changing your thinking Just by breaking down stereotypes, you can grow in martial arts. That is enlightenment.
Enlightenment that could not be described in words or writing was not something that could be discussed, at least not at their level right now.
“You are an archer. It is harder for an archer to feel the intensity of life and death than a warrior or swordsman. “It is not because of the level of martial arts, but because of the characteristics of weapons.”
“There was a reason for that. “The reason you taught me baktujutsu.”
“okay. So you have to deal with people. In the end, martial arts is a discipline that is difficult to develop without an opponent.”
Mukbi looked at Yeonhojeong with a curious expression.
“Where on earth did you get that knowledge?”
Yeon Ho-jeong snorted.
“It’s an experience.”
“You’re not old enough to have that kind of experience, right?”
“Experience is similar to the state of martial arts. Age doesn’t matter. “There are countless middle-aged experts who are worse than you right now.”
“but.”
thud.
Yeon Hojeong drew a crack in the ground with the Gwangryongbu.
“I’ll just stand here, so give me a shot. “He’s really ready to kill me.”
Tension appeared on Mukbi’s face.
“Are you okay?”
“Who cares about whom?”
Mukbi chuckled at Yeon Ho-jeong’s playful words.
“It’s too late to regret having a hole in your head.”
“Sniff.”
Wooooow.
A blue energy rose from Yeon Ho-jeong’s body. It was Byeoklajingi.
“It’s one shot. If you don’t catch me with that one shot, you’ll die. Shoot with that thought in mind.”
“…great.”
Teong.
Mukbi widened the distance.
Things that are too close are actually easier to read. Whether it’s archery or memorization, proper power comes from maintaining a reasonable distance.
“Are you ready?”
Crackling.
Mukbi placed an iron fist at Hongryeon Palace.
There was no answer. Her eyes were already focused on Yeon Ho-jeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong laughed to himself.
‘Looking at things like this, it’s clear that you’re not an ordinary, murderous person.’
He is a hunter rather than a warrior. Rather than exhilaratingly exchanging hands with the enemy, he thoroughly developed his martial arts skills to kill the opponent.
In the past, it was not for nothing that it was said that if the Emperor of Darkness and the Divine Palace came forward, they could kill even the greatest person of all time.
The Emperor of Darkness was a warrior, and Shingung was a warrior. There is no combination like this when trying to kill an enemy.
And now.
Now that they have returned to the past and the future, the two are polishing themselves day by day to regain their former glory.
Phew.
The flow of air has changed.
The flow of air curving towards one point of Hongryeon Palace was nothing short of eerie.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face hardened.
‘good.’
No matter how high he reaches the pinnacle of excellence, if he makes a mistake, he dies.
Moreover, Mukbi was an expert in archery. Yeon Ho-jeong could see what she couldn’t, but Muk-bi’s archery skills were a threat to anyone.
If you let your guard down, you will die. If you’re going to deliver a life-threatening blow, you too will have to risk your life.
Tsutsutsutsu.
Yeon Ho-jeong aimed his silence with the Gwangryongbu.
Lifting a long, heavy ax and pointing it at an opponent required tremendous physical strength.
It was possible in the past, but it’s different now. Yeon Ho-jeong’s posture, which raised the light dragon and aimed straight at the opponent, was flexible yet unwavering.
A state where conflicting principles can be contained in one body.
A ray of cold sweat ran down Mukbi’s forehead as he looked at Yeonhojeong, the master of Chojeoljeong and Byeoksanhojang.
‘….’
Hwiiing.
A cool wind blew.
‘I can’t see it.’
Mukbi has already recognized the opponent as prey. She turned into a death god solely to take the other person’s life.
Even with the eyes of a Shinigami, there was no gap to be seen.
‘No, to be precise…’
The problem is that there are too many gaps.
It seems like it will hit no matter where you aim. But it seems like no matter where you aim, you will fail.
‘natural.’
He pointed the light dragon towards himself and slightly changed his stance.
The attack radius has been narrowed. It was the ideal posture when dealing with archers.
‘If you shoot half-heartedly, it will definitely miss, and it will come at you in the blink of an eye and blow off your head.’
A picture was drawn.
A picture of Yeon Ho-jeong’s unique explosive attack power and merciless assassin blowing his head off.
‘In that case…’
Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
Hongryeon Palace moved little by little. By moving the firing mound, the direction and timing of shooting are disturbed.
This is a standard response. Just that strange movement made defense and evasion twice as difficult.
Hehehe!
The blowing wind became stronger.
Mukbi smelled the wind. The unique stale smell of iron heightened the tension.
‘It’s white tiger energy.’
The white magical energy rising from beneath the feet seems to determine the timing of the attack.
The white tiger’s wind was warning.
If you miss, it will attack immediately. That one attack kills you.
Grumbling.
Another trickle of cold sweat rolled down my face.
‘What should I do? Where should I aim to catch it? The dragon gun is strong, but a practitioner should be able to block it without difficulty.’
It was then.
‘uh?’
Mukbi’s eyes wavered.
‘Why do I have to use Yongapo?’
Yongapo was the type of weapon that could be shot with the greatest confidence in Guryongpacheongung.
However, that destructive power does not work on the opponent. Still, should we stick to Yongapo until the end?
At that moment, Yeon Ho-jeong’s words came to mind.
‘What’s important is how much useful effort you put in.’
You can’t catch Yeonhojeong with Yonga Prisoner.
then?
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!
A strange gray energy surged from beneath Muk Fei’s feet.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
‘Hong Cheon-gi?!’
At that time, silence gave way to protest.
Taaaaaaaaa!
The iron battle shrouded in gray fog shot out like a thunderbolt.
It was a speed that even Yeonhojeong, who had broken through the barrier and maximized the quality of his five senses and internal power, could not perceive it as slow.
‘Hachera.’
That moment that split a split second.
Yeon Ho-jeong realized that the arrow of silence was aiming for his thigh. It seemed like it was flying straight ahead, but at some point, it fired a short-range arc that curved downward.
‘Is it still too much?’
Yet Yeon Ho-jeong’s hand was already moving down to the bottom. The moment the arrow was fired, his sixth sense read the bullet and he moved the position of his hand.
‘Anyway, it’s a failure.’
That is why it was the time when Yeonhojeong’s left hand was trying to snatch the gray iron coin.
Pow!
There was surprise in Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes.
The fired iron war splits vertically in an instant, increasing into five pieces.
‘Yuryongsan bombing (遊龍散電彈)?!’
Bababababaak!
Yeon Ho-jeong hesitated.
Of the five arrows, four were stuck in the ground and one was caught in Yeon Ho-jeong’s hand. The tip of one arrow slightly dug into my thigh.
If I hadn’t caught it in time, there would have been a hole in it.
“…huh.”
Yeon Ho-jeong was impressed without even realizing it.
“Wasn’t Yuryongsanjeontan an archery technique that couldn’t be used in this distance?”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked back.
“is not it?”
“Gasp!”
Mukbi, who was out of breath, was occupying his rear with his arrows drawn without arrows.
And the light dragon part was also touching her collarbone.
Mukbi gasped and said.
“Huh! Huh! “I forcibly reversed the earthquake, but it didn’t work either?”
“It’s a shame. It’s a pity, but…”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“good job. “You risked your life and took a hit.”
Mukbi grinned.
Her smiling face gradually became pale and then turned blue. The internal injuries became worse due to regurgitation of true energy and strong contraction of breathing.
Tieeing!
Unable to overcome the tension, Hongryeon Palace fell to the floor. Mukbi also lost consciousness and fell.
Yeon Ho-jeong quickly accepted her.
A look of pride appeared on his face.
“Good job.”
