The Constellations Are My Disciples - Chapter 181
◈ Episode 181. Dragon Descending (5)
What is Martial God Ryu (武神流)?
That was the name of the martial art used by Musin, the master of martial arts 300 years ago.
Among them, those who were a little familiar with martial arts called them by the name of musin-ryu (必殺流), as people called them.
If you were to see Musin’s martial arts as an opponent rather than from the side, that opponent would almost inevitably face death.
However, Musin himself, who actually uses martial arts, has never once called his martial art martial arts.
In the first place, this was because Musin had never once given a name to the martial art he used.
In the first place, the reason people talked about it as martial arts was because people other than him saw the martial arts and gave it a name of their own.
It was the same for special moves.
In addition, Kim Joo-hyuk did not particularly like giving names to the martial arts he used.
The reason is because the indigo is sold.
The martial arts that Kim Joo-hyuk encountered at least 300 years ago, when he was living each day in a struggle for survival, was not created to gain something.
enlightenment?
The truth of this world?
Self-practice to reach a transcendental state?
I knew that there was a time when Kim Joo-hyuk trained martial arts to obtain such things, but there was no such story when Kim Joo-hyuk was training martial arts.
Rather, when Kim Joo-hyuk was learning martial arts to compete for survival, people were learning martial arts for survival, not for such a spiritual rise.
To protect yourself even a little more efficiently.
To kill life even a little more efficiently.
At that time, they learned martial arts solely to protect themselves and kill others.
In short, the martial arts created at that time were literally created solely for survival.
There is no enlightenment.
There is no truth.
There is no self-practice.
At least from Kim Joo-hyuk’s perspective, the martial arts style was nothing more than a ‘way to use the sword a little more comfortably’ that he created in order to protect himself and kill others efficiently and quickly.
That’s why Kim Joo-hyuk did not like being called a martial artist.
In the first place, what he created was not something great, but simply a way to use the sword a little more easily, comfortably, and efficiently.
however.
However, this does not mean that Kim Joo-hyuk thinks nothing of the martial arts skills he has accumulated over the years.
At least the ‘how to use a sword a little more comfortably’ that Kim Joo-hyuk has developed so far allowed him to survive the terrible struggle for survival 300 years ago.
Tsk-!
As soon as Kim Joo-hyuk finishes speaking, the black dragon disappears before his eyes.
And Kim Joo-hyuk still couldn’t follow the black dragon’s appearance with his own two eyes.
Of course, Kim Joo-hyuk knew that.
In the first place, just because he fixes his sword, it doesn’t happen that he suddenly becomes able to see the black dragon clearly.
Even if Kim Joo-hyuk were to use martial arts right now, his skills would not suddenly improve like the Black Dragon just before.
However, even so, there were two clear differences between the situation before and now.
One thing was that Kim Joo-hyuk, who had been busy blocking the black dragon’s attacks without stopping, concentrated his mind even if it was only for a moment.
At the same time, it gave him enough time to ‘prepare’.
and.
Once again, the black dragon leaped in front of Kim Joo-hyuk and swung its fist covered in black scales in front of him.
Sigh-!
Kim Joo-hyuk’s sword began to move.
####
Mushinmun in Daegong-dong.
“….”
There, Barche was watching the battle between Kim Joo-hyuk and the Black Dragon with his students with a very serious expression.
Kim Joo-hyuk holding the sword at his waist and the black dragon facing him.
Barce frowned at that sight.
‘There’s such a difference.’
There is a difference.
No matter how you look at it, the difference between Kim Joo-hyuk and Black Dragon was enormous.
Of course, that doesn’t mean Kim Joo-hyuk is weak.
At least the current Kim Joo-hyuk is vaguely past his prime when he fought him 300 years ago.
But the problem was that Kim Joo-hyuk was dealing with a black dragon.
To be more precise, a black dragon that preyed on the constellations and became stronger than Barche from 300 years ago.
‘Why on earth were you hiding such power?’
Barce had such a question in his mind for a moment, but he quickly shook it off.
Anyway, that wasn’t the point that mattered when we got here.
‘…No matter how you look at it, the defeat is dark.’
Barce looked at Kim Joo-hyuk’s condition.
Despite the overwhelming difference in skill, Kim Joo-hyuk blocked almost all of Black Dragon’s attacks.
It is said that even though there were some minor injuries, a fatal blow was not allowed.
However, despite this, the thought that Kim Joo-hyuk would defeat Black Dragon did not occur to Barce.
To be honest, no matter how much you look at the black dragon that Barce is currently looking at, the word ‘out of standard’ comes to mind first.
“Hmm…”
The voice of the beak mask was heard as soon as Barce finished thinking.
Barche then turned his gaze to look at Kim Joo-hyuk’s disciples who were watching the battle with him, and immediately gave an expression of incomprehension.
Even though Kim Joo-hyuk is clearly being pushed out, Kim Joo-hyuk’s disciples, including Burigamyeon, seemed calm.
Barce, who had been looking at this for a while, soon opened his mouth.
“No matter how you look at it, the defeat is deep, so wouldn’t it be better to help now?”
Barce’s question.
“under? What are you talking about?”
“…I understand that you believe in your teacher, but the black dragon is stronger than you think.”
“We know that because we’ve seen it.”
Buriga mask speaks calmly.
Barche frowned as if he couldn’t understand and tried to say something, but Burgage Mask answered before he could open his mouth.
“But Master will win.”
The beak mask just looks at the confrontation with the black dragon as if it were a predetermined truth.
There was clearly no doubt in the faith in her eyes.
Is that a realistic belief?
If not, is it ideal fanaticism?
Barce thought that at least that appearance was closer to the latter than the former.
In this situation, anyone can see that Kim Joo-hyuk is being pushed out.
Even if Kim Joo-hyuk were to use the martial arts style that pushed him to his limit, there was no way he could win-
“…Huh?”
-does not exist…?
Barce looked at the screen showing Kim Joo-hyuk and Black Dragon with a blank expression.
What was visible there was still the same.
Kim Joo-hyuk poses with the land completely shattered and with injuries all over his body.
And
behind Kim Joo-hyuk, there was a black dragon.
A black dragon with both arms cut off.
####
“!”
The black dragon’s arms fly in the air.
The black dragon had no doubts about that.
The emotion he felt was shock.
‘How on earth…!?’
Until a moment ago, Black Dragon had a huge advantage over Musin.
From the moment he learned his name in earnest, Musin has not been able to extend his sword even once.
However, at the moment the black dragon was charging at him, Kim Joo-hyuk stretched out his sword and cut off both of the black dragon’s arms.
But that wasn’t why the black dragon was surprised.
Were you surprised that you got cut?
no.
Or is it the shock of losing both arms?
That’s not it either.
In the first place, the black dragon was able to regenerate its two severed arms without any problems.
The reason he was shocked.
That was because the black dragon felt nothing from Kim Joo-hyuk’s sword.
‘What on earth?’
The black dragon saw.
I saw Kim Joo-hyuk’s sword move and saw it swing in an incredible path and cut off both of his arms.
But I didn’t feel anything from that sword.
There was no life radiating from his sword.
Likewise, I did not feel any strange power.
I couldn’t even feel the magic that was contained in the muted sword just a moment ago.
I couldn’t even feel the will contained in the tip of the sword.
It’s literally just a swinging sword that doesn’t feel anything.
The black dragon let out an expression of astonishment.
‘I’m sure… I would have jumped over it!’
The black dragon surpassed the martial arts skills.
This has already been sufficiently noticed from previous clashes.
But what about now?
‘Obviously, just a little while ago…!’
Martial God’s skill, which was fully measurable, was no longer visible.
‘Nothing will change…!!!’
Nothing has changed.
Nevertheless, the black dragon could no longer estimate the god of war.
“Tsk-!”
That’s why the black dragon felt impatient.
Quad deud deuk-!
He soon began spewing out his magical power in all directions.
As the dark red magic spreads in all directions, the severed arms of the black dragon regenerate, and the remaining magic rises to the sky and is once again engulfed in dark clouds.
It’s so scary!
Red sparks bouncing along with it.
‘I am above. It’s clear!’
With red sparks bouncing here and there, the black dragon repeated the thought several times and prepared for the final blow to put an end to the martial god who could not feel anything.
Kajijijijik-!
The red magic power contained in the black clouds agrees with the black dragon’s will and begins to emit red lightning in all directions, and soon begins to gather a tremendous amount of magic power for Kim Joo-hyuk’s head.
Quad deud deuk-!
At the same time, a huge amount of sparks bounced around the black dragon.
The sparks exploding around turn over the ground and surround the black dragon’s body.
However, even though the black dragon is preparing an attack that is completely different from before, Kim Joo-hyuk stands there and maintains his posture without moving a single inch.
Kim Joo-hyuk is just preparing to draw his sword as if he doesn’t need anything.
And-
wow!!!!!!
The black dragon, who had pressed the magic power into his body to the limit, jumped out at Kim Joo-hyuk.
Kkkdeudeudeudeuk-!
A simple straight jump.
However, the path that the black dragon passed along exploded in all directions like a bomb exploding.
As soon as the black dragon arrived in front of Kim Joo-hyuk, red lightning of a different level than before fell from the dark cloud that had contained magical power just a moment ago.
The black dragon’s fist stretched out along with him.
With that, the black dragon confirmed his victory.
Kim Joo-hyuk paused as if he was not aware of this moment until his fist reached his chest.
however. Just before
the
black dragon’s hand touched Kim Joo-hyuk’s heart, his sword moved.
Seuuuuu –
A dark-colored sword slowly extends out.
As if in slow motion.
Very slowly.
however.
“!”
As soon as the silent sword was drawn, the black dragon realized that his fist, which had been aimed at Kim Joo-hyuk, had already bounced away.
The black dragon could be seen with him.
The lightning that fell from the sky disappeared without a trace due to the silent sword rising in slow motion.
‘ah.’
At that time, the black dragon saw the silent sword once again.
A sword that doesn’t feel anything even though it blocks all of its attacks.
however.
He realized at that moment.
‘It wasn’t that there was nothing in it.’
That it wasn’t something that didn’t contain anything. As proof of that
, Musinryu (武神流)
.
He saw
an eclipse .
Apathy.
Contained in an ink-colored sword.
Wow!!
