Return of Mount Hua Sect - Chapter 618

It is common knowledge that a person cannot simultaneously use two different martial arts. However, this is not entirely true.

Those practicing martial arts often use Qi circulation techniques and punches or kicks. Therefore, saying that a person cannot use two different martial arts at the same time is incorrect.

To be precise, ‘one cannot use the same martial arts at the same time’ is correct.

Can someone use Plum Blossom Swordsmanship with their right hand while using Seven Plum Swordsmanship with their left hand? Can someone use Plum Blossom Swordsmanship with their right hand while using Bamboo-Leaf Palm with their left hand?

Alternating between two martial arts might be possible, but using two martial arts separately and perfectly is almost impossible.

Because each martial art has a different way of internal strength method and different way of techniques.

If martial arts are elaborately organized so that the forms do not overlap, it will no longer be two martial arts, but one martial art.

That is why it is impossible to practice two martial arts at once. For that to be possible, there must be two people in someone’s head, not one.

There was a sect that made this impossible possible: Wudang Sect.

Originally, the various Taoists located on Wudang Mountain were overflowing with people who deserved to be called monsters. They did not hesitate to go through all kinds of hardships to realize the Tao in their own way.

Among them, there was an attempt to divide the mind into two.

Humans can only see others excluding themselves objectively, and others cannot fully look into the inside of the human being. So, if he splits into two, he can learn martial arts faster than anyone else.

What started with that ridiculous imagination turned out to be an unexpected success. After a successful trial, he finally divided the mind into two.

It didn’t do much to help realize the Tao, like the creator’s wish, but it had a tremendous effect, at least in terms of learning a martial art and internal strength operation.

Like this.

Kwaaa!

Soft tension was overflowing in the pouring torrent-like sword energy.

The sword energy and soft energy, which have completely different properties, merge as one before separating again into their own martial art.

‘What, what is this…….’

Yoon Jong recoiled in shock. However, the sword energy and soft energy relentlessly pushed toward him as if they would not let go.

“Keuk!”

Realizing that there was no answer at this rate, Yoon Jong shot out blue sword energy while slashing horizontally.

Paaaat!

An instant, a large wall of sword energy appeared before him.

Keureureung! When it came into contact with the surging sword, the wall swayed greatly and was pushed back, but somehow it did not break and managed to withstand it.

‘All, All right…’

However. At that moment.

Yoon Jong widened his eyes in surprise.

The soft energy rushing along with the sword energy instantly changed its direction and flew towards his side, bypassing the sword energy wall.

The way it avoided the wall of sword energy was like that of a living entity or a ghost.

‘No way!’

But he didn’t have time to think about it.

Yoon Jong quickly recovered his sword and lifted himself up into the air. The sword and soft energy that came just below him swept through the space.

Uuuung!

The soles of the shoes that were not pulled out were swept away by the sword strike. After flipping over and over again in Ho Gong, Yoon Jong flipped his body in the air several times and landed on an empty stage.

Kwaang! Kwaaang! Kwaaaang!

White energy flew in succession to the spot where he briefly landed, breaking and crushing the blue stone.

Yoon Jong, who pulled himself out of the strike almost to the end of the stage, stood up quickly like a flying squirrel and was wary of Mu Yon. He was sweating profusely.

“….”

Drip.

Sweat dripped down his chin.

It was an onslaught that cannot be described except as a storm. Yoon Jong opened his mouth as if he were sick.

“… Two-Intention Mind Art.”

“That’s right.”

Mu Yon grinned.

“I can’t use it well yet, but I can imitate it. What do you think? Don’t you think it’s quite useful?”

‘Useful?’

Yoon Jong almost burst out laughing.

Two-Intention Mind Art (양의심공 (兩意心功)).

It’s the highest martial art of the Wudang Sect that allows you to use two different martial arts simultaneously.

Yoon Jong had heard of it before, but he didn’t really understand what it meant to use two different martial arts at the same time. It’s just two martial arts, so he thought it was just a matter of dealing with two opponents simultaneously.

However, Two-Intention Mind Art was completely different than expected.

‘It feels like I’m dealing with two absolute masters at the same time.’

Yoon Jong knew better than anyone how frightening it was to face two masters at once.

It is because Yoon Jong is the one who is most specialized in overpowering the opponent in harmony. When teaming with Jo-Gol, dealing with enemies much stronger than them was possible.

When the swords of different properties joined together like cogwheels, they could exert three or four times the usual power, not twice.

But now Mu Yon is doing what Jo-Gol and Yoon Jong had to do together.

‘This is Two-Intention Mind Art…..’

It was truly an unbelievable martial arts skill.

Yoon Jong swallowed dry saliva. It was the moment when he realized deeply why the world praised Wudang for its martial arts.

“…Can he deal with that?”

Baek Cheon, who was watching the match, let out a groan-like voice.

It is Two-Intention Mind Art that anyone involved in Kangho cannot help but know about. Isn’t that martial arts are the symbol of the Wudang Sect along with Tai Chi Sword (태극혜검 (太極慧劍)), Soft Palm (면장 (綿掌)), and Ten-Section Brocade (십단금(十段錦@))?

But what he heard with his ears and what he saw with his eyes were literally heaven and earth.

“…No, that’s… a scam.”

Jo-Gol, who returned from medical treatment, murmured with a stunned face. He also used to work together with Yoon Jong, he could not have known how amazing the martial art that was unfolding in front of his eyes was.

“This is… Wudang.”

Even Yoo Iseol muttered and couldn’t soften her stiff face.

The term “power” should be used at times like this. Why Wudang is Wudang. That scene seemed to explain everything about why, despite their short history, they stood tall at the forefront of the Taoist school in Jungwon.

Baek Cheon couldn’t take his eyes off the stage and opened his mouth.

“…Chung-Myung-ah.”

“What?”

“Does that make sense?”

Chung Myung grinned. “That’s why I told you.”

“….”

“Wudang’s martial art gets stronger over time. Half of that is because of that damn thing.”

Two-Intention Mind Art, along with Tai Chi Sword, is the most difficult martial art in Wudang. It is a damn technique that is not even allowed to be learned by most of the top disciples.

“Anyway, that makes me mad every time I see it.”

“…When did you see that again?”

“No, think about it.”

“Huh?”

Chung Myung glared and complained.

“What? Dividing a person’s mind in two? What’s more cruel and bizarre than that! That’s the right thing to say, what kind of Righteous Sect utilizes such martial art? Even Evil Sect don’t do things like that.”

“….”

Baek Cheon’s eyes trembled slightly.

‘Now that I hear it… It sounds right…….’

“But those bastards? Isn’t this more insane than Plum Blossom Swordsmanship? Huh, they’re like bastards who’d feel cool if they stuck a pine tree in their heads!Who’s on whose side?”

“Calm, calm down, Chung Myung.”

Baek Cheon broke into a cold sweat as he grabbed Chung Myung, who was about to rush into Wudang’s camp.

‘Why is this guy suddenly losing his temper again…’

“That, that’s not the point right now. Give Yoon Jong some advice on how to deal with that…….”

“What advice!”

But Chung Myung snorted.

“If there was a way, I wouldn’t even bother.” “…Huh?”

“There’s no way to deal with it. It’s not a trick or a deception, it’s just pure martial arts.”

“….”

“It’s annoying and frustrating.”

Back Cheon’s face was visibly hardened at the return answer.

“It’s incredibly frustrating, but the effect is certain. From the moment you are able to unfold Two-Intention Mind Art, your martial arts will rise at least by half.”

“…It seems so.”

He couldn’t understand how it was possible, but the effect was undoubtedly confirmed.

Baek Cheon felt as if something had stuck in his chest.

When you think you’ve jumped over a mountain, there is always a bigger one behind it. And when you think you’ve crossed that one, a bigger mountain is always blocking your path.

Now he can see why it was said that the power of a prestigious sect is endless.

‘That’s the mountain we’re going to have to jump.’

Two tigers cannot coexist on the same mountain. For Mount Hua to stand tall at the peak, they must overcome Wudang. ‘But….’

A sense of sadness crept in Baek Cheon’s gaze fixed on Yoon jJong’s back. The burden seemed too heavy to carry all alone.

“Yoon Jong….”

In the end, Chung Myung smirked at the sight of Baek Cheon reciting Yoon Jong’s name.

“Why? Does Sasuk think it is too much for Yoon Jong Sahyung?”

“….”

“Can Sasuk do it then?”

“Who, who said so?”

Baek Cheon’s face flushed. Chung Myung shook his head and clicked his tongue. “This is why geniuses are……Tsk.”

“What do you want to say?”

“Look carefully.”

“Yes?”

When Chung Myung’s voice became more serious, Baek Cheon’s eyes widened.

“If a genius has a genius’s method, then a tiger has a tiger’s method. And…”

Chung Myung didn’t blink and watched Yoon Jong’s back.

“Yoon Jong Sahyung is the one who knows it best.”

Baek Cheon’s shaking shoulders began to calm down. Yoon Jong, who had gathered his breath, stared silently at Mu Yon.

‘Sparring match…’

There would be no time to get his breath together if it were a real battle.

But the opponent is giving him time to catch his breath. He didn’t know if it was because this was a spar or because he was relaxed, but Yoon Jong felt relieved before anger.

‘Strong.’

Certainly, the name ‘The Three Swords of Wudang’ was not given for nothing.

The sword and soft energy that attacked simultaneously with the Two-Intention Mind Art were enough to make the opponent’s mind go crazy. If Yoon Jong had experienced this for the first time, he would have been lying on the ground without even realizing what was happening.

But….

‘It’s not as hopeless as it was then.’

His time when he fought with the Bishop was still fresh.

It was as if Asura had manifested on the ground, and he still remembered that tremendous momentum clearly.

Compared to the shock of facing the man who created despair and chaos in front of his eyes, this was rather human.

‘Even at that time, I didn’t know what to do.’

Yoon Jong just clung to it and endured it while screaming. And that doesn’t change this time either.

Yoon Jong stood still and took a stance.

The basic stance of all swords, taking the center of gravity back as much as he loosened there, he gave a low exclamation.

“Please come.”

There was a smile on Mu Yon’s lips.

‘I should have brought the two and third-class disciples more. If that were the case, they would have learned a lot from this guy.’

No, in fact, he’s learning, too.

In that unshakable position.

Uuuung.

Mu Yon’s sword, full of energy, began to tremble uncontrollably.

‘Then, it is proper etiquette to answer with best effort!’

Mu Yon strengthened his determination and swung his sword.

The sword energy was even more intense than before and rushed towards Yoon Jong like a torrent. Yoon Jong’s body, exposed to the great energy, began to shake like a single leaf in a storm.
