Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor - Chapter 518

Episode 518

‘Indeed.’

I looked at the rapidly escalating battle situation and put a smile on my face.

The reason why the government soldiers and foreigners suddenly helped the political faction, Murim, was unknown.

But one thing was certain.

If this trend continues, the demonic army will not be able to hold out for long and will collapse.

There was only one way for them to overturn their inferiority.

The world’s greatest expert, Demonic Cultist, joins the ranks.

The cult leader had a reason to defeat me as quickly as possible.

‘The important thing starts from here.’

I’ve somehow held up well so far.

Although I suffered some internal injuries, my physical functions were not particularly impaired.

However, we must not forget that since the opponent was our opponent, a moment of inattention could lead to death.

The intention was to make the opponent impatient, but the fact that a high-level expert was in a hurry to hasten the conclusion also meant that I had to overcome a dangerous juncture.

‘Geumgong is definitely scary.’

I repeated it to myself several times.

From the beginning, there was no intention of relying on the power of the bomber.

However, when I found myself confronting the religious leader like this, I found myself unable to let go of my disappointment.

The temptation to improve one’s skills through expedient means was so strong.

This is why even disciples of venerable schools abandon the excellent and stable esoteric meditation techniques of monks and fall into evil or magical practices.

‘But since the religious leader has prepared countermeasures, the bombshell magician must be punished.’

A warning passed through Master’s mind before he lost consciousness.

There should be no such thing as being consumed by one’s own strength and losing in vain.

It wasn’t like I had been constantly whipping myself to meet that kind of ending.

Phew!

A huge, artificial mass passed by the upper body.

Clothes and skin were torn by the wind pressure and blood flowed.

Master Ma, who showed off his skills without hesitation, was literally a disaster that descended on Rense.

Each attack was heavy and powerful.

It’s a battle in the air, so it doesn’t cause damage, but this is the type of martial arts that can destroy mountains and split the sea.

Pow!

He kicked off the sphere of brain energy that had formed under his feet and rushed towards the leader.

He invaded the space between the opponent and raised his sword diagonally to cut.

Kagagak!

The sword, held between my fingers bent like a rake, was instantly thrown out of my hand.

Without hesitation, I gave up my sword and landed a kick into the cult leader’s defenseless exposed abdomen.

thud!

Instead of the sensation that should have been transmitted through my toes, I felt a heavy rebound force.

Like a shield made of cold iron.

Condensed demon energy was blocking and protecting the impact point.

The next moment, the hand of the Demonic Cultist expanded into view and came into view.

As I crossed my arms to protect my body, a strong shock struck me.

A feeling of internal organs shaking.

Nausea rose up, but I quickly stabilized it by using my internal energy according to the Baekrei Shingong’s instructions.

Geogwol, which had been falling towards the ground, rose up again and returned to my hand.

“…!”

There was no time to catch your breath.

A wave of magic energy surges, filling the entire front.

For an instant, it felt like the entire world was being immersed in darkness.

The sleeves of the clothes exposed to the demonic energy turned black and melted.

I wanted to protect myself with self-defense gear, but from now on, I had to preserve all my strength for one final blow.

‘I believe in a body that has been strengthened through the White Thunder God’s Technique.’

My skin tingled, but it wasn’t unbearable.

The energy to protect the body was kept to a minimum and the energy was spread out more widely.

I faintly felt the presence of the cult leader circling around me, swimming in a space filled with demonic energy.

‘come.’

In the blink of an eye, the Demonic Cult’s power that penetrated the side was narrowly deflected with the blade.

An exclamation, whether of irritation or admiration, flowed from the leader’s mouth.

The third herbivorous full moon.

The sword’s trajectory drew a large circle.

It wasn’t a powerful attack, but there was nothing like this to create the gap I needed right now.

The tip of the sword missed the face of the Demon Cultist with an inch gap.

Ujijik!

The Demon Cultist’s fist shattered the membrane of the condensed brain energy and sent a shock to the body.

The new model that was pushed soared into the sky and came out of the cloud made of demonic energy.

‘It was breathtaking.’

If the distance had been a little closer, the cult leader’s fist would have hit my chest.

If that were the case, it wouldn’t have ended up like this with minor internal injuries.

After coughing a bit, I unleashed my Wolyeonggeom again toward the chasing Demon Cultist.

The twenty-fourth herbivorous month (天月).

Shhh!

Following the sword’s path, the remaining remnants crumbled and turned into countless energy swords.

A torrential downpour of rain poured down on Ma Jiaoju’s head.

* * *

Demon Lord’s eyes were distorted as he swung both arms to clear away the heavy rain.

It felt like playing tag.

An enemy that seems to be caught but cannot be caught.

Unlike the Thunder King, he was a difficult enemy to deal with.

‘I never thought I would have grown to this extent in such a short period of time.’

To put it positively, you can now use what you have efficiently.

On the contrary, to put it negatively, the tactics have weakened.

The first blow that struck my side.

Originally, the blow should have broken bones and damaged internal organs.

However, the Dragon King only flew away and continued the battle as if nothing had happened.

The attack that sent him flying a little while ago was like that.

If the punch had been applied properly, a large hole would have been created in the Dragon King’s solar plexus.

But he was still fighting back with a sane appearance.

Once is a coincidence, but if the same thing happens four or five times, it must be seen as the other person’s intention.

Memorization that digs into the blind spots of the lack of street awareness, prosthetics, counterattacks that cut off the pulse at important moments, etc.

Every little element came together to halve the power of the attack.

It was his fault that the person who was supposed to be suffering from fatal injuries still looked fine.

‘When we faced each other in Banghyeon, although he was strong, he had a lot of room to attack, so it was easy to deal with him.’

I had no choice but to admit it.

The Dragon King has grown to a level where he can threaten himself.

In his current state of injury and exhaustion, he was a strong man who could truly be considered an opponent who could be defeated.

“Look at this too.”

A powerful air current swirled around the hand of the Demon Cultist.

The air in the area seemed to be shaking, and eventually the storm engulfed the entire Hwahae area.

Did you feel something unusual?

Yeonsun, with a hard expression on his face, adjusted his grip on the sword with both hands.

White light flickered on the surface of the sword raised above the head.

Wow!

The soldiers on the ground looked up at the sky, startled by the noise hitting their eardrums.

The storm split in half dissolved into the air and disappeared.

The Dragon King, standing in the air, seemed to stumble and spit out a handful of blood.

The religious pillar located across from it also did not look fine.

There was a long cut in the front, and blood flowed from the diagonal wound.

‘her.’

Ma Gyoju wiped the wound with his hand and laughed.

The moment when great power collides.

He aimed for the moment when the opponent was about to unleash a blow with all his might, and sent out a secretly implemented sword.

‘I didn’t expect this.’

The problem was that the other person thought the same thing as him.

A thin, sharp, artificial blade passed all the way through the upper body.

Coincidentally, the trajectory was almost identical to the location of the wound suffered by the Dragon King in Banghyeon in the past.

“You’re pissing me off.”

Master Ma muttered in a cold voice and stretched out his hand.

Yeon-woon, who was staggering, swung his left arm in a surprise attack, and the meme that had been released was sucked into his hand like a lie and caught.

“…….”

Yeon-woon, who had lost his appetite as if he were disappointed, took out the memorization again.

This time, instead of just one, there were dozens of memorized machines circling in the air and flying towards the leader.

This is an art that even dancers from Tang Dynasty, famous for their mastery of memorization, would be amazed by.

Dark flying sword.

It is a martial art and legacy created by the Taesang family head of the Tang family, Poison King.

Although it was a martial arts feat that was acknowledged even by the head of the Tang family of the time, it was not a threat to the head of the Ma religion.

The powerful suction power generated around the fingertips seemed to have sucked all the memorized energy into one point, and then pushed them all out at once and returned them to their original owners.

Yeonsun swings his sword so fast that a remnant is left in the air, forming a sword curtain.

As if he had been waiting, the leader kicked the air and narrowed the distance before throwing his fist out and breaking the curtain.

No, to be precise, the fist passed through the membrane without any resistance.

Since there was no sense of resistance that should have been conveyed, the center of gravity naturally tilted.

“…a shallow trick.”

“Didn’t you get caught properly?”

Wow!

Yeonsun, who narrowed his eyes and smiled, mercilessly kicked the bent religious leader’s waist.

With a heavy hitting sound, the Demon Cultist’s new form was pushed out to the twenty-second range.

Wolyeonggeom’s ninth herbal method, Howol (護月).

It was a herbal diet that made you feel like you had opened a sword.

It can’t be said to be a very powerful herbal weapon, but depending on how it is used, it can induce the opponent’s movements and catch them off guard.

“Whoa.”

Yeon-woon touched his abdomen with a frown and let out a long sigh.

Master Ma slowly straightened his back and glared at him with a menacing gaze.

* * *

‘I’m completely out of my mind.’

Even though I’ve grown at a rapid pace, my skills are still nowhere near Master Ma’s.

It wasn’t just a drop in output.

Experience Tips Depth of Enlightenment.

Nothing was ahead of the other.

Their physical strength and endurance were somewhat equal due to the leader being tired and injured, but that was it.

To put it bluntly, my current overall skills are nowhere near what I had when I was operating the Pakjam Magic Gong in Banghyeon (房縣).

However, there was a crucial difference between me then and now.

Have you met or not met the minimum conditions necessary to defeat the Demon Cultist?

The outcome of a fight is not simply determined by strength or weakness.

The direction of my enlightenment was of a type that made a one-step reversal possible.

Master Ma also knows this, so even though he is pushed into this situation, he is hardly able to throw a winning move.

‘But we can’t delay any longer. I can’t let my subordinates be wiped out like that. Let’s get to the end soon, leader.’
