Episode 307 – Academy (40)

Blue Oak. No, now a being in the form of a mannequin came swinging a sword.

Cheaeng!

I felt the heavy power of the blades that touched each other. My skin tingled from the cool weather. It was a simple but excellent diagonal cut.

But it was a little surprising.

‘I thought you would imitate Honwongi.’

The guy still insisted on only the sword. A horizontal slash followed by a stab. He attacked with basic sword techniques.

Hiss!

I turned my head to avoid it. I don’t know what the intention was, but I had no intention of watching. I fought against him with all my might.

‘Extreme yin (極陰).’

Tooung!

He took control of the surrounding nature keepers and converted them all into negative energy. A cool wave of air swept over me. The plan was to freeze it with cold and then rush it all at once.

Damn it!

A 10-meter radius was frozen by the extreme cold energy, and I stretched my palm toward the sky.

The nature keeper that has taken control has been condensed into dots. The moment when dozens of energy beads appeared in the air. I lowered my fingertips.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

It rained down like a bomb towards the blue mannequin. The soul energy contained in the steel ring exploded. The intense heat melted the surroundings, and lightning struck the earth.

The earth was devastated by the Hunwongi, which had all kinds of attributes.

On a quiet battlefield.

Hwiiiiing…

Smoke was scattered by the wind that blew from somewhere. A human figure was seen standing upright in the hollow hole.

It wasn’t okay. The wound could not be recovered, as the regenerative power was exhausted. Blue blood flowed from the torn skin.

The blue mannequin that was staggering raised its sword. A cool blade was aimed at me.

-Kiki..Gikik.. Fighting..Crying.

At the same time, there was a crackling sound like a broken radio.

The guy with his whole body turned into a mess rushed at me. Even though his frozen skin was cracked, he struck down the sword without hesitation.

Shhh!

It was a clean strike without any unnecessary details.

I raised my sword. I planned to block it as if to deflect it and then hit its head at once.

Just before blocking the stabbing blade. The back of my head felt creepy. An alarm bell rang in my head.

‘Why?’

I put away the questions that came to mind. There was no time to think long.

‘Extremely pleasant.’

It accelerated my nerves. I lowered my posture and focused on the approaching blade. I was prepared to react no matter what happened.

Suddenly.

Before the sword even touched me, I heard a sound like an auditory hallucination. My forehead felt hot as if I had been cut.

When you frown at a strange sensation.

Damn it!

The opponent’s strength dug into the blade. In the slowed down world, I saw my half-cut sword. He was unable to block a simple strike and was on the verge of being chopped into pieces.

I managed to twist the sword and break the orbit. A sharp silver sword blade grazed my cheek.

‘What.’

There was no time to properly understand what had happened.

Suddenly.

I heard auditory hallucinations again. This time, the back of my neck felt hot.

Without even thinking about it, I tilted my upper body back. It saved my life.

Sigh!

Blood burst from the nape of my neck. When on earth was it cut? I didn’t even realize it.

Quang!

It explodes like a scattering of bullets. I took a big step back.

The blue mannequin’s sword was still aimed at me. I couldn’t take my eyes off the brightly burning sword. It looked the same on the outside, but something was different.

Cutting off a sword wrapped in strength. I couldn’t understand.

-I… Become stronger. Continue. Learn
“Ha… Good. Become stronger.”

Her cut skin burned, but she smiled. I welcomed the feeling of standing at the crossroads of life and death.

“I will become stronger too.”

A dangerous situation where you could die if you take one wrong step.

‘Does not matter.’

How many times have there been moments when the enemy was stronger than me? If I had backed out every time, I wouldn’t have been here.

Pot.

The blue mannequin that was about 10 meters away disappeared from its spot. At the same time as a pale afterimage, blood burst out from the side.

‘Fast.’

I thought it was strange ever since I stopped imitating Honwongi.

Now I realize his intentions. He simply focused on swordsmanship. I don’t know what kind of power it takes to imitate. All of that energy was put into swordsmanship.

And developed it.

We went one step further than imitation. A new level was reached through pure swordsmanship alone.

Sigh!

There wasn’t even a simple slash in sight. My forearms and cheeks were tingling. Blood burst out belatedly from the cut skin.

Ugh!

It awakened all the inner strength of Danjeon. The spirit energy ran along the meridians and seeped into the muscles.

My senses were stretched to their limits. That’s why I could feel it.

Hiss!

Staying safe even in a slow world. No, more than anything else, I blocked the fast approaching sword blade.

Chaeaeang!

My cut off blade flew through the air. If I hadn’t twisted my body in the middle, my forehead would have split.

‘Her.’

It was the same as before. The sword wrapped around the strong force was cut off without any resistance. This is the first time I have experienced this since I started handling the exam. It felt like fighting a real sword with a tree branch.

‘Skin fire.’

My body burned and my sixth sense took a step forward. The world slowed down and almost stopped.

However, the blue mannequin’s sword was still fast.

The moment the guy’s arm moved as if it disappeared.

Suddenly.

I heard hallucinations again. My solar plexus throbbed as if I had been stabbed by a knife. I twisted my body reflexively.

Shhh!

Right where my heart was just a moment ago. Geomgang stabbed and passed by.

Already the third time. It could not be dismissed as a mere coincidence.

I realized it instinctively. At the crossroads of life and death, Sang Sang-jeon, heated to the limit, even predicted the future.

It has passed from simple intuition to the realm of foresight. Although it was a short period of time, less than half a second, it displayed overwhelming power during battle.

Wedge!

The area around my shoulder felt hot again. I immediately lowered my posture. A sharp sword passed by.

‘Even though you know, it’s hard to avoid?’

It was so absurd that I laughed.

Pow!

Blood burst out somewhere in the upper body. There was no time to counterattack. The best thing to do was to rely on the power of regeneration to hold on.

If you counterattack half-heartedly, you will be decapitated. I focused on dodging and observed the opponent’s sword.

‘How is it different from my sword?’

Sigh! Pee it!

As time passed, the wounds increased rapidly. The speed of cutting was faster than regeneration.

‘Whoa…’

There was no answer to just avoiding it. I walked one step forward. By narrowing the distance, sword strikes were made simpler.

The path was blocked with a cut sword.

Suddenly! As expected, it was cut off immediately. The slash that came at me cut my waist, but I paid it no mind.

I focused on the opponent’s sword, which burned like a flame.

‘Want to have.’

I will take the secret of that clear strength as my own. If there’s something you’re lacking, just learn it. He did it, so I can do it too.

Sigh!

Even though he was covered in blood, he did not take his eyes off the sword. I realized this after my upper body was in tatters after being cut dozens of times.

It wasn’t complicated. Rather, it was the height of simplicity. Just swing it. An ordinary sword strike split everything.

Suddenly, one of the nine principles of Hunwonil Qigong came to mind.

-Pure one overcomes ten thousand changes.

In some ways, it is a composition that is not typical of Honwon Ilgi Gong. Hunyuanil Qigong, which deals with ten thousand energies, pursues the pure one.

But I had no intention of denying the results I could see before my eyes.

‘Is that Sunday?’

He held out his sword towards Gangi.

Suddenly!

Got cut again. The long sword, which was over 1 meter long, suddenly became as short as a dagger. Still, I stubbornly fought back. I repeated that moment when my strength crumbled over and over again.

‘Ah.’

The concentration of emotions is different. There was only one thing contained in the blue mannequin’s sword cavity. The desire to become strong. A brilliant light was created with a pure thought without any impurities.

I looked at my strength wrapped around the cut sword. It was cloudy and full of all kinds of random thoughts.

‘Right.’

Shhh!

He didn’t back down as he saw the blade pointed between his eyes. He took a step forward and swung his sword.

I burned away the distracting thoughts in my mind and created a sword. Only pure thoughts were left behind.

‘I will cut you down.’

Pee it!

Leaving behind the blade that grazed my forehead, my sword cut into my blue skin.

At the same time with a faint cutting sound.

Dump.

The body that lost its head collapsed. Belatedly, the blue head fell to the floor.

-Talent…Geek… Be strong… Be strong…

A dying voice was heard. There was so much noise that it was difficult to understand, but the emotions contained were clear.

Asked the severed head.

“···What is your name?”
-I became stronger… And blocked it. It must be prevented.. Destruction. Cheesy!

I kept repeating the same words as if I was completely broken. Even that stopped abruptly.

I could see tentacles writhing inside my half-severed head. The purple flesh is about to cover the blue-emitting orb.

“···.”

As the tentacle approached, the light grew fainter. It was obvious what would happen if the beads were completely contaminated. It will turn into a lump of flesh and run away.

After a short thought, I aimed my sword. Towards the blue orb that is about to be covered by tentacles.

‘Four days.’

A dazzling flash of light pierced the earth. After the intense glow has faded. There were no more tentacles or blue spheres.

Hwii…

Only the fluttering ash hovered in the air and disappeared.

The huge pit that had been dug in the sand was like a tomb. I stood there and looked at the place where the unknown being was.

How much time has passed? Someone came rushing over.

“Ahhh! Master! Yes, it hurts! “I’ll treat you!”

Lydia was so close that her breasts were crushed. I started crying and looked at my body thoroughly.

Ugh!

Before I could say anything, divine power poured out. The warm sunlight-like energy restored my torn body.

Seeing his worried expression made me laugh.

“This is enough. “How is the energy of the foreign press?”
“Ah… Now, just wait a moment.”

She said, spreading her divine power by reciting her prayers.

“It disappeared without any need for purification. “I think it’s thanks to the owner.”

She nodded and threw the sword.

Phew!

He turned around with his half-cut sword stuck in the hole.

“Let’s go.”

***

8-star warlock Lecardo.

The owner of the Black Death Tower frowned. I muttered while glaring at the hill that Choi Si-woo had entered.

“Choi Si-woo went in there?”
“Yes! “I’m sure you went into the crypt!”

He narrowed his eyes at his subordinate’s answer. It looked like an ordinary pile of dirt, but it was very suspicious. Even if you tried to use magic to explore it, it was impossible.

“···Is this a special crack?”
“Wouldn’t you say so? I think it hasn’t come out yet. “It seems like a pretty dangerous crack.”

“Hmm..”
“It’s not like everyone died inside, right?”

Lecardo clicked his tongue and stood up. I waited for Choi Si-woo for several days, but he still hasn’t come out.

Eventually, my patience ran out. He pointed to the paladin guarding the hole in the hill.

“It’s a waste of time to wait any longer. “I have to torture those guys to get some information out of them.”
