Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 866
Episode 866
Strong people who are blooming (6)
Heueu-eup.
Breathe in lightly.
All you can do is inhale air that is empty and invisible to the eye. However, Hwahyang, who was watching Cheon Hyo-rak, saw an illusion in which golden particles spread in the air seemed to be entering the owner’s nose.
“Whoa.”
Spit out heavily.
Whether it is the original Neigongshimbeop breathing method or Danjeon breathing for the health of Taoism, it is based on taking a thin, long inhale and exhaling slowly.
However, Cheon Hyorak’s breathing was different. Although it had a clear purpose for Neigongshimbeop, it was different from ordinary breathing techniques.
A light inhale and a heavy exhale.
It is not leisurely or slow. In fact, his breathing seemed faster than that of an ordinary person who had never practiced martial arts.
Hwahyang’s eyes wavered.
‘You’ve already reached the Seven Steps.’
She swallowed without realizing it.
‘He is truly a great talent. If it weren’t for his physical body that suffered from punishment, he would have acquired sufficient strength to compete with the Shaolin master by now.’
Hwahyang felt sad.
Cheon Hyorak’s talent was both extraordinary and unique. His talent was that of ‘analysis’, and he was able to reproduce any martial art he had seen once.
That wasn’t all. Any complex martial arts structure could be completely disassembled and interpreted with just one reading. The anecdote of how he perfectly analyzed a top-class magical skill given to him as a joke by Shinmarimju when he was young is still passed down like a legend.
It was one of the reasons why Cheon Hyo-rak was able to survive until now in Shinmarim, which can be said to be the epitome of strong self-respect and the law of the jungle.
Although he was unable to learn martial arts properly due to his heavenly punishment, his talent was so outstanding that he could easily be considered the best in Shinmarim.
Fortunately, there was a way to utilize that talent, and thanks to that, I was able to have incredible strength beyond imagination.
However, I could not properly handle the internal power. It was still like that.
‘The Heavy Demonic Gong, which I started practicing only three years ago, has already reached the level of the Seven Danged Gong. How happy Lord Rim would be if he knew about this.’
Hwahyang sighed inwardly.
How much time has passed like that?
hook!
With a strong inhalation, Cheon Hyorak opened his eyes.
Hwahyang knelt down.
“Congratulations to the Grand Duke, Prince.”
“What about the Archduke?”
Cheon Hyorak smiled bitterly.
“I knew the way to reach Childan Gong from the moment I first read the secret. “It’s just that I wasn’t able to practice it because my body wasn’t suited to it.”
“Still, wouldn’t it be an unprecedented feat in the history of Shinmarim to achieve the Seventh Stage of the Middle Kingdom in just three years?”
“It is a martial art that cannot be implemented properly. “It’s not a feat.”
A look of sadness appeared on Hwahyang’s face.
Hyorak Cheon repeatedly clenched and unclenched his fist.
“It’s still good.”
In the past, it was not even possible to amplify the five senses with internal energy. This means that although the overall function of the body increased because it contained strength beyond imagination, it could not go beyond that level.
But it was different now.
If I wanted to, I could make my eyesight several times clearer, and I could use my hearing and senses as good as any expert.
‘It is impossible to implement martial arts, but this alone is enough.’
This was the first time I used inner energy to maximize my physical sensations.
I can’t forget the pleasure and surprise of that time. It was as if all the senses that had been suppressed had been opened up, and I had acquired a sense more sensitive than any other expert.
‘…hmm?’
And now that not only the five senses, but also the energy senses have become more active, Cheon Hyo-rak realized that the sixth sense, which had naturally stretched according to the energy senses, was sending a blinking signal.
“Who is it?”
“yes?”
Cheon Hyorak looked out the window.
His expression became strange.
“Someone else is coming.”
“Someone is coming? Could it be…Bonggong?”
“No, not this room.”
Flash!
Cheon Hyo-rak’s eyes were filled with subtle magic.
It was only when I reached Seven Dangong that I was able to have a decent eye glow. Even Cheon Hyo-rak himself was not aware of that much.
“I think he’s an expert who has reached the level of a holy demon… but it’s a little different.”
A master who has reached maturity.
Hwahyang thought it was difficult to be surprised anymore. How many super experts are gathered here in the Murim Alliance?
“The distance is incredibly far away. “It doesn’t seem to be anywhere in the outer city, but hundreds of miles away.”
It was truly an unbelievable ability to detect the approach of a master from hundreds of miles away. It is a sacred skill that cannot be imitated by anyone other than the masters of Seongcheon who have learned their own way of martial arts by not neglecting practice even after reaching martial arts level.
Moreover, it is extremely difficult to read another person’s energy from this distance unless even Seongcheon is strongly conscious of it or has the power of coexistence or opposition to one’s own true energy.
It was another talent of Cheon Hyo-rak.
The moment I awakened my senses through internal energy, my extremely developed brain and sixth sense allowed me to demonstrate abilities close to clairvoyance.
Although it was not an ability that could always be displayed like those saints.
“This is the first time I felt someone approaching from this distance. “Maybe it’s because of the energy that person carries.”
“You mean energy?”
“Similar to us. “They are not the same, but they have the same origin.”
“then…?”
“It is the true story of the evil demon’s external path. “It’s not a magic craft, it’s a boatman.”
Among the masters named in Seongcheon, he is an absolute master who has honed his skills.
Cheon Hyorak’s eyes sparkled.
“What’s going on? Why on earth is the absolute master of the Black Island Sect coming to the Murim Alliance? I’m sure he won’t try to fight alone.”
“….”
“Is there something I need to see?”
Whatever the purpose, Cheon Hyo-rak felt his heart sink inside.
‘How many masters are gathered here in the Murim Alliance?’
A master who is presumed to be Namgung’s sword emperor and apprentice.
Yeon Ho-jeong, the great king of wind and luck, was newly named to Seongcheon by Baek Byeong-shin, the leader of the three armies.
That alone is terrifying, but now even the noble army known as the world’s master of boating is coming.
‘But something is different.’
It didn’t feel like we were gathering for a single purpose. At least that was how Cheon Hyorak saw it.
So it was more of a problem.
The fact that so many amazing masters are gathering together in the Murim Alliance even though they do not share a single set of values is in itself proof of the great status of the Murim Alliance.
‘As expected, it’s a fortune telling. It is not a lie to say that we are the best martial arts group in the world. I knew it, but as time goes by, I feel it more and more.’
A shadow fell on Cheon Hyo-rak’s face.
‘Is this okay?’
Although he did not show it, he was a man with as much pride in Shinmarim as anyone else.
However, as I stayed here, I felt a little uneasy. I came here to ask for help and to hold hands, but somehow I felt uneasy as if Shinmarim would be swallowed up by the huge shadow of the Murim League.
‘…No, it still has to be enforced. We must think of ways to avoid being pushed back by the Murim Alliance and not neglect real-world problems because of an uncertain future.’
Furthermore, it might have been better for Shinmarim to fall into the shadow of the Murim Alliance rather than be disintegrated by those cruel traitors.
Cheon Hyo-rak, who was depressed, sighed and said.
“Give me a long cloth.”
“Ah yes!”
As I put on the long cloth that Hwahyang gave me, I heard a polite voice coming from outside the door.
“The distinguished guest is inside.”
“exactly.”
“I received a call from Museongjeon. “The officials would like to see the distinguished guest now.”
Cheon Hyorak nodded.
“I’m going out now.”
“yes.”
Hwahyang’s face turned cold.
“No matter how much I ask, you are asking too much. “It’s not like we’re meeting at a set time, so why are you asking me to come because I want to meet you?…”
“It’s consideration.”
“yes?”
Cheon Hyorak smiled.
“It’s their consideration. I was the one who asked first and they had no choice but to be cautious. “Nevertheless, the reason I’m asking you to see me right now is to quickly calm my disturbed mind.”
“Then?”
“okay. “It looks like they will listen to our demands.”
Hwahyang opened the door.
Cheon Hyorak smiled.
“Let’s go with a smile.”
At that time, three people were gathered in the conference room. Seung Hyeon-jin, a public ambassador, and Zhuge Mun-ho, a soldier.
Cheon Hyorak bowed his head.
“I’m just grateful that you made up your mind so quickly.”
Zhuge Wenhu smiled and asked.
“You’re already thankful because you know what kind of decision we made?”
“Whatever decision you make, it’s better than just waiting.”
“Hehe, it looks like Prince Cheon has already guessed our decision.”
“Yes that’s right.”
Zhuge Li looked at the ambassador.
“Ambassador.”
Ambassador Gong Gong slowly opened his eyes.
For some reason, the smile that always appeared on his face was not visible. His face looked a little distraught and he clearly showed signs of exhaustion.
But his voice, as always, was deep and full of pleasant resonance.
“I would like to accept Prince Cheon’s offer.”
“thank you.”
“There is just one condition.”
“Please speak.”
“I think Prince Cheon knows that the current atmosphere of the Murim Alliance is somewhat chaotic.”
“….”
“We have been thinking about electing a Murim lord for a long time. Because there was no proper leader, it was impossible to immediately respond to incidents and accidents that occurred in the midfield. “We were always slow because we had to assume the minimum amount of damage before making decisions.”
“….”
“But that won’t happen anymore. “Like now.”
Cheon Hyo-rak slightly lowered his head, but was inwardly embarrassed.
‘Why are you saying this?’
There was no need for the Shaolin leader, who was dispatched from the Mado Murim, not to anyone else, to speak of him as the leader of the Murim and make promises.
Ambassador Gong Gong, who was quietly looking at Hyorak Cheon, continued speaking.
“You need to tell me exactly what the situation is in Shinmarim.”
“yes?”
“You must tell me about the situation in Limju, the leaders of the rebellion, the size of their forces, and their ultimate goal. “You will need to tell me in detail about the number of masters in Shinmarim, their operational power, their clear location, and their weaknesses and attack areas.”
Cheon Hyorak was embarrassed.
“Ambassador.”
“Is there a problem?”
“It is only natural to tell you in detail about the situation in Shinmarim and the enemy’s strength. However, it is difficult to tell you about the magic attack’s weaknesses and strategies.”
“Why is that?”
“yes?”
“We plan to help Emperor Cheon and return Shinmarim to normal. “We will have to dispatch valuable warriors from our homeland for him, but can Duke of Heaven guarantee their lives?”
“Great Ambassador.”
“That won’t be possible. “If you had the power to do that, there was no need to come all the way, right?”
“But Magong…”
“In order for even one more of our warriors to be safe and to correct Shinmarim, Prince Cheon will have to show the same level of sincerity.”
“Is that part agreed upon by all of you?”
“There was no need for that. “They just follow my opinion.”
“…yes?”
A faint golden aura began to appear in the Ambassador’s tired eyes.
“Binseung is the first Murim lord.”
