Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 323

Episode 323

One who lights the sacred fire (5)

“I really don’t like it.”

Gyu-jeok, who was known to be blunt, had a rare expression on his face.

It had been a while since the sunset lost its light and the world became completely dark. I still haven’t gotten used to the winter weather in Jungwon.

Although he was already immune to cold and heat, he had a feeling that the weather gave him. Gyujeok did not like the winter weather in Hanam.

‘I still can’t get used to it even after several years.’

As expected, hometown is the best. The land in the central plains was so large and fertile that it was necessary to conquer it in order to expand the religious community, but Gyujeok still hated this land.

‘It would be better if we hit each other fiercely.’

Of course he knew. That war does not simply operate on the logic of power.

The sooner a war ends, the better. And for a war to end quickly, overwhelming power and influence are needed.

That was the reason why Shinhwa and Saeum Gwanghyeol slowly infiltrated the midfield without appearing. Because we need to achieve an overwhelming victory.

However, knowing with your head and feeling with your heart are different things. Gyu-jeok had an outstanding brain, but more than that, he was passionate and passionate.

The reason he didn’t usually show his facial expressions was to control his fiery temper. Forcing mercy on his subordinates was also in a similar vein.

‘Damn it.’

I wanted to burn down every mountain in sight.

Although I understood it in my head, my heart became more and more frustrated as time passed.

‘I can’t even remember the last time we had a competitive match.’

Is it because of a frustrated mind?

This stagnant state showed no signs of breaking even after five years. If I could overcome this stagnation, I would be able to enter the inside of the Ten Tigers in one go.

This is all because of the environment. It was just five years ago that he came to the central plains and became a member of the military in Henan Province.

Since I can’t punch properly, my martial arts skills are bound to plateau. He thought so.

“hmm.”

Gyujeok looked around.

Even from the base, we ran more than 50 miles. I felt like I could speed up now.

Paaaaang!

A red glow seemed to appear all over his body, and his magic speed became twice as fast.

As I tore through the wind and moved forward, the feelings of dissatisfaction seemed to have eased.

When you’re in a bad mood, it’s good to run to your heart’s content like this. Gyujeok’s expression became much more relaxed.

How long did it run like that?

‘…’

Gyu-jeok tilted his head.

‘what?’

Papa pang!

He slowed down by kicking several times in the air and landed at the top of the huge tree.

Although it was a large tree, its branches were thin as it was at the top. Even though I stepped on that spot, the tree branch did not bend. It was an incredible study.

He looked around.

“…Hmm. “I definitely felt a surge of energy.”

An extremely subtle movement of energy.

In fact, it was so minor that you could just pass it by. If you think about it, it would be safe to pass it off as an illusion. Because I was running very fast.

But the regulations were cautious.

Complaints are just complaints. He did not forget his identity as one of the eighteen warriors of the Shinhwa Church.

‘It’s unlikely, but there’s something in case.’

Grumbling. Grumbling.

The anger that was pulsating throughout my body gradually lost its color.

The energy wave changed from tangible to intangible. The true energy that was filling the Danjeon was spread in all directions like a spider web.

It was a method of detecting fortune. It was an extremely delicate use of magic that only experts who broke barriers and went beyond limits could do.

Ugh. Ugh.

The wind blowing is strong.

As the wind was strong, the spirit that had been spread continued to flutter. In addition to lowering the density of true energy and because its origin is fire, it does not match the winter wind.

‘Hmm.’

Still, my skills don’t go anywhere.

He forced a lot of energy and explored his surroundings in more detail, but soon lost his energy.

‘Was it a simple illusion?’

The moment when Gyu-jeok, laughing, was about to take his feet off the tree branch.

It was right then.

Sigh.

A sharp gust of wind came from under the tree.

Gyukjeok’s hand moved like lightning.

Quang!

Fast as a lightning bolt and heavy as a rock.

With one strike, the ground exploded and half of the thick tree roots were crushed. It was great power.

Faaagh!

The figure immediately came down and looked around.

“What kind of guy…?!”

At that moment, Gyujeok felt goosebumps rising all over his body.

Whoa whoa!

A foot-long ax was stuck in the tree, up to its handle.

It was indeed a secret and quick trick. It was a blow that would have decapitated even the world’s most famous beacon if it had been just a moment later.

Of course, the attack did not end there.

Whoa!

The hot, burning Jinki approached right in front of Gyujeok’s nose.

‘Fire energy?!’

It’s a fire. But that firearm wasn’t usually that great.

Surprisingly, it was so great that it was not much lacking compared to the firearm he was carrying. When I saw the overflowing fire power and blazing death, I thought for a moment, ‘Is he from this school?’ It was to the point where I wanted to.

And before I knew it, the sword wielded by the owner of the firearm had approached two inches in front of the uvula.

Sigh!

There was a long stab wound on Gyu-jeok’s neck. The wound area, which had shed a few drops of blood, burned in an instant.

It was amazing. Gyujeok, an expert in Yeolyanggong, was not only injured by a sharp strike using a firearm, but also suffered burns.

“this guy!”

bang!

The attacker’s body was thrown backwards due to the sudden explosion.

Gyujeok’s eyes wavered.

‘what?’

Baehwagyeongpaju (拜火勁破術) was a unique martial art unique to Shinhwa cultists that was faster than the Chongyeong (寸勁) of the central plains and was twice as explosive and powerful.

Even the person who used that method was one of the Eighteen Armed Forces. It is not strange for a decent expert to have his upper body explode on the spot.

‘Why can’t I feel it?’

I could not feel any sensation as the bullet exploded from my heart and destroyed the target.

It felt like I had hit a wall of rolling water. Gyu-jeok had never felt anything like this while using the background acupuncture technique.

Time divided into moments.

In his eyes, he could see a flow of true energy, like a translucent wave, flowing from the front of the attacker in the darkness.

‘water?!’

Time, which had been slowing down, suddenly began to speed up.

Sigh!

The fist broke through the center of the water wall and headed towards Gyujeok’s solar plexus at an incredible speed.

It was so fast that there was no way to avoid it. Gyujeok immediately used the Cheongro Purification Technique and swung the Fire God Blade.

Puff poop! Kwasik!

It did not completely offset the penetrating power of the straight fist. Gyujeok’s body shattered the giant tree and fell backwards.

Papa papapang!

Gyukjeok’s eyes widened.

‘fast!’

An attacker that emits flame-like energy waves and draws numerous straight lines.

It was truly a terrifying new law. No, is it a walking method?

Whatever it was, its speed was a step above his own.

Paaaaaa!

The attacker, who had been moving dizzyingly, suddenly curved down to the bottom of the scale.

It is not only fast, but also extremely flexible. Gyujeok, whose body movements were beyond imagination, had no choice but to admit that his opponent was superior to him when it came to shinshinjutsu.

Quack!

The two people’s hands clashed together, causing a loud explosion.

‘urg!’

A thick vein appeared on Gyujeok’s forehead.

The attacker wasn’t just quick in his movements. Not only was he capable of quick and flashy magic, but he also possessed power that was no less powerful.

Gyujeok retreats like crazy. The attacker quickly caught up and swung his legs frantically.

Papa papapang! Pow!

Even the Gakbeop (脚法) was fast.

It was a kick without any mysterious enlightenment or refined path. However, it was fast and strong. I couldn’t follow with my eyes where and how it was coming.

The twin swords split the air dizzyingly.

Puff poop!

Gyujeok’s hands flew back.

‘strong!’

fast. And strong.

That was it. And that is what martial arts is all about.

If it is fast enough to be difficult to see with the naked eye and has the power to shatter any defense shield, that is the ultimate martial arts law.

The attacker pushed himself like this with nothing special. It meant that he had a complete understanding of the path leading to the utmost intention of martial arts.

Pow!

As he was pushed back several times, the tension of the heat that had been quietly gathering exploded, pushing the attacker away.

This time, there was no feeling in my hands. In terms of power, it was clearly superior to the Baehwagyeongpajutsu, but it was of no use in front of that translucent wall of water.

But it’s okay.

With this blow, the distance between the attacker and the attacker increased by more than five lengths. At that distance, it was possible to catch one’s breath for a moment.

“Whoa.”

Gyukjeok took a short, quick breath, and his eyes became red like fire.

“What kind of dog…!”

Gyujeok couldn’t even finish his sentence and had to lower his upper body.

Quaaaang!

This blow is big.

It was as powerful as if a huge castle wall had been fired with a cannon. The three trees behind the statue were shattered into pieces by the intangible double shot.

It was a method of tremendous power. But what was more surprising than that was that even though he was using martial arts with such destructive power, he was not able to notice the flow of true energy.

The glow in Gyujeok’s eyes, which had been as hot as flames, gradually changed to the color of sticky blood.

Kwakwakwak! Quaaaang!

The attacker, who was about to attack again, stopped.

Quaaaang! bang! Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

All the surrounding trees were shattered by the indiscriminate tension shooting of the enemy. Then, unusual flames rose from the broken tree, creating a wall of fire in the area.

A battleground of burning flames.

Gyujeok asked in a cold voice.

“Who are you? “Please state your name.”

I flinch.

The attacker stopped following up.

The attacker, who had been quietly glaring at the rule, relaxed his stance. The scary, murderous look in his eyes as he glared at Gyujeok was still there, but there was a look of puzzlement on his face.

“Tongseongmyeong? “In this situation?”

“I say it again. Please state your name. “I don’t want to compete with someone who can’t even reveal his name.”

Gyujeok said it was a game.

Yes. Although they were pushed back, after a few battles and defenses, Gyujeok completely recognized the opponent.

Crunchy.

A bloody sound rang out from Gyujeok’s clenched fist.

My martial heart burned hotly. The explosive spirit of victory instantly suppressed even the faith in the religious leader.

A strong desire that was held tightly in one’s heart.

The appearance of an opponent worth fighting with all his might made Gyujeok so excited that he even forgot about the situation he was in.

The attacker Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes narrowed.

“…what a strange guy.”

Although he was the one who attacked, Gyujeok also had to kill the other person regardless of the reason. It’s not like looking at yourself with those curious eyes and asking your name.

As for the name, it doesn’t matter if you ask the other person half to death. Because the attacker would not in his right mind give his name in the first place.

Gyujeok opened his mouth again.

“Whether it is this land you call Jungwon or the place I came from, it is not easy to meet such a strong person. Since they were aiming their fists at each other, it is meaningless to ask why. “I just want to know your name.”

“Previously.”

“…?”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s face distorted.

“Why are you wearing those clothes?”

“…Hmm.”

“Why are you wearing the official uniform of the Imperial Commander-in-Chief?”
