Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor - Chapter 516
Episode 516 Hee
hee hee!
At the first collision, the fatal horse fell to the ground.
I kicked off the saddle and jumped up, immediately pouring out the Wolyeonggeom’s herbivores towards the ground.
The twentieth herbivorous month.
Dozens of strands of sword energy poured down like rain and hit the Demon Cultist.
The leader did not avoid it, but stood still and released dense energy.
Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
As I landed on the ground that was fading to black, I became energized and chased after the sign of the demonic cult leader.
Magi covered the area in a thick blanket.
If exposed without protection, it would quickly erode and paralyze the functions of the body.
However, I knew it intuitively.
That this is just a trick.
Ujijik!
Something invisible pressed down on the spot where I was standing a moment ago.
The ground collapsed, creating a deep pit.
Before I could even regain my balance, I swung my sword and cut down the enemy who had entered the gap.
The first herbivorous current month.
The sword soared in a gently curved trajectory and made contact with the Demon Cultist’s palm.
With just that, a powerful wave spread out and engulfed the surroundings.
Damn it!
The moment when I twisted my upper body to respond to the subsequent attack.
An ominous noise pierced my ears.
Kugugoogung!
The ground seemed to have cracked, as if it had been dried out by drought, and the broken pieces of the ground rose into the air all at once.
The surrounding warriors suddenly soared into the sky and screamed.
‘I thought about it before.’
It was truly an empty object that went beyond common sense.
I lost my balance and stumbled, and my fist dug into my side as if I had been waiting for this moment.
The body, pushed by the impact, soared diagonally and collided with fragments of the earth floating in the air.
‘nice.’
Fortunately, there were no serious injuries.
It was effective to protect the point of impact by forming a membrane of brain energy.
‘It still hurts even though I blocked it.’
Although he suffered some internal injuries, it was not enough to interfere with his internal power operation or movement.
After pulling out my body buried in the dirt and straightening my balance, I let go of the sword.
Then, in response to the flying fist, he fired a punch in front of him.
Boom boom!
The ear-piercing crash sounds rang out one after another.
The demonic leader jumped into the air and rushed towards me, stepping over the debris scattered around.
I took a short breath and pulled my right arm back.
Papajik!
The brain energy that flashed on the back of my hand soon enveloped my entire fist.
The first herbivorous Paam Fist of Byeokryeok Fist.
Implementing a regime with the might of ten thousand years of power.
We poured all our internal strength into preparing for a head-on collision.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
The moment their fists met, the huge pile of dirt behind them shattered and scattered.
A thick cloud of dust rose and covered the area.
‘I expected it, though.’
Wiping the blood from the corner of my mouth with my sleeve, I somersaulted and landed in the air.
As expected, there was no answer to fighting back with force.
It was only natural that the basic output was different.
‘still.’
It wasn’t to the point where I couldn’t even try rubbing it.
The training I have done so far has never been in vain.
Although Ma Jyoju was clearly a high-level expert, he was weakened due to the injuries he sustained in the fight with his teacher not yet healed.
There was a good chance of winning.
‘One thing bothers me.’
Contrary to what I heard from the torpedo squad members, there was no feeling of inconvenience due to poisoning in the leader’s movements.
Just as I had replenished the energy I had consumed through the summoning group on my way here, I thought that the Demon Cultist had also expelled poisonous energy out of the body through some kind of method.
It’s hard to believe that the intangible poison can be detoxified so easily, but it wouldn’t be surprising if a demonic cult leader performed any tricks.
‘I didn’t think I could take it down so easily.’
It would be a lie if I said it didn’t feel overwhelming.
It was a matter of dealing with no one else but the best expert in the world.
Considering the situational factors, I had the advantage, but I expected from the beginning that it would be a difficult fight to gain the upper hand.
‘The immediate advantage and disadvantage can be overturned depending on the progress of the battle.’
The output is on the pontoon side.
However, I had a clear advantage over the Demon Cultist.
First is the performance of the body.
Second, detailed management of internal forces.
The longer the fight progressed and the more nervous the Demon Clan Lord felt, the higher my chances of winning would be.
All I had to do was not get consumed by anxiety and impatience.
If you believe in yourself and focus on fully demonstrating your capabilities, opportunities will surely come.
Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
The fragments of the earth that had risen into the air fell to the ground all at once.
The warriors were startled by the huge shadow cast over their heads and let out an expression of astonishment.
Master Ma and I stood facing each other with a distance of about ten feet.
“It’s definitely different than before.”
“I worked hard without forgetting the things the leader pointed out.”
“…Are you talking about what happened in Banghyeon? “I didn’t know it would come back as a result of strangling myself like this.”
“It’s hard to say this, but it seems like you are more like a teacher in this life than in your past life.”
“I’ve felt this before, but you have a strange knack for scratching people’s insides.”
“It was worth it to work hard to use my tongue to see that the religious leader, who was no one else, felt the emotional turmoil.”
“…….”
“But aren’t you forgetting something?”
I pointed to the left with my index finger.
Master Ma frowned and stretched out his hand in the opposite direction.
Quadddddd!
Geogwol, which flew around in the air, was blocked by a black curtain and made an unpleasant friction sound.
‘As expected, this kind of shallow trick works, doesn’t it?’
After quenching my appetite with regret, I retrieved the sword while dodging the clumps of shapes attacking me from all directions.
In the end, it was not possible to hit the Demon Lord, but the significance of it was that it deceived his senses, even if only for a moment.
[If you can only use it in such a monotonous way, it would be better not to use swordsmanship.] The reprimand I
heard from the religious leader in Banghyeon flashed through my mind.
The feeling was new.
Is this how a young student feels when his homework is examined by a scholar at a seowon?
The religious leader must have felt it too.
Unlike in the past, I have become quite proficient in swordsmanship.
If you let your guard down, you may allow an unexpected blow.
‘I hope this makes him feel a little more wary and intimidated.’
Contrary to expectations, the Ma leader attacked me like an angry bull.
There was no trace of hesitation in his movements.
‘Yeah, that can’t be possible.’
Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
I burst out laughing and formed spheres of brain energy in front of me and exploded them all at once.
A tremendous explosion resounded throughout the battlefield.
* * *
“You guys!”
“I’ll pay you back for what you did a little while ago!”
The allied forces of the political factions fiercely attacked the demonic cultists.
The situation was completely opposite to when the Demonic Cult carried out a surprise attack earlier.
The side that unilaterally gained the upper hand was none other than the Allied Forces.
The morale was sky-high, but fundamentally, there was a big difference in number and quality, so it had to be that way.
The reinforcements led by Sohyeongeom and Master Baekmang were all elites with great capabilities.
They appeared on the battlefield all at once for the first time and cut down the demonic cultists, showing off their majesty befitting a bodyguard unit supporting the vested interests that divide the power of the Murim Alliance into three.
“hmm.”
Sohyeongeom, who was observing the battle situation from the center of the formation, turned his gaze to the castle wall in the distance.
The others didn’t seem to notice because they were concentrating on the fight, but the identity of the woman sitting on the edge of the castle wall and watching the situation unfold was clearly the Empress.
An iron-blooded monarch who rules the cold North Sea.
On the way, I heard a rough explanation from the head of the Hwangbo family.
How did the Allied Forces come to be attacked by the Demon Cultists?
It is also said that Lord Ma said with his own words that he had subjugated the foreigners.
But what is this situation?
‘No matter where you look, it looks like the Demon Cult has been stabbed in the back.’
From Baekdo Moorim’s perspective, it was a good situation.
Nevertheless, the reason I felt a slight sense of anxiety was because I was worried that the immigrants would just watch the situation until the end.
Just like the Beast Palace in Nanman.
Ice palaces in the North Sea have also coveted the rich and fertile land of the central plains for a long time.
From their perspective, the current situation was an unprecedented opportunity.
‘The government soldiers are watching closely, so you won’t be able to act rashly.’
Sohyeongeom, who was wiping his beard to organize his thoughts, soon narrowed his eyes.
It was his tendency to nip dangerous buds in advance.
It may be excessive to worry, but there was a need to prepare for any unfortunate events that might occur.
‘Now that I think about it, was the provincial commander who ruled this area Sangbaekjin? I think I’ve learned his face before.’
* * *
“Ugh.”
“Demon Lord!”
“Are you out of your mind!”
The iron armored giant, who was lying unconscious, opened his eyes with difficulty.
The faces of the demonic cultists who were constantly breathing true energy by his side turned bright colors.
“……What is the situation?”
“Not good. “The road to Sae-o-e (塞外) has been blocked by foreigners and government soldiers, and we are currently under attack by the allied forces pursuing us.”
The iron-clad giant frowned.
He was mortally wounded by the King of Dao and collapsed, but was miraculously revived thanks to heavenly luck.
The problem was that I was rarely given time to leisurely take care of my body and recover.
It was a battle that was thought to be impossible to lose, but the old men of the Senate showed up with reinforcements and the tide was completely turned.
As I lost and regained consciousness several times, I ended up in the worst possible situation.
‘Dangerous.’
Gritting his teeth, the iron-clad giant raised his trembling hands and touched various parts of his body.
He raised his upper body, looked up at the sky, and let out a long sigh.
One way or another, I felt like it would be difficult for me to survive.
In that case, I have no choice but to meet an end that is as helpful to my allies as possible.
Coo coo coo coo!
The demonic cultists were startled by the sudden burst of energy and took a step back without realizing it.
The iron-clad giant rose from his seat and gestured to his subordinate to receive his German weapon.
‘I never wanted to use this much.’
It was when he broke his neck with a loud snapping sound that he strained his eyes to check the situation with his own eyes.
Tiring! Ding!
Suddenly, a clear musical sound penetrated his ears.
Then, something emitting powerful energy waves fell on his head.
An urgent cry echoed throughout the area.
“P-hat!”
