Chapter 161 – 162. Learning to Unify Body and Sword-1

Chain fluid

Seonwoo raised the Yongmi Yeonsword and swung it like crazy.

Chain fluid

Chain fluid

While firing a single sword in four directions and eight directions.

Various changes began to manifest in his hands.

It was the trick of the illusion sword.

It was then.

Seonwoo’s sword path, which had been mixed with the magic of the Hwansword, became simpler.

Not only that, but the speed still decreased, and soon the power began to stand up.

Booung

Booung

Soon, the sword began to feel the weight that even shattered the wind.

It was the trick of a heavy sword.

Chain fluid

This time, the speed increased infinitely as it was with the sword.

Soon, the speed that pierced even the air began to emanate from his sword.

It was the magic of a quick sword.

Seonwoo swung the sword countless times, changing the shape of the sword.

How long has it been like that

“Ha…Ha…Ha.”

Seon-wu, who dropped the Yongmi Yeongeom on the floor before he knew it, began to breathe heavily.

I felt like I had reached the limit of my stamina.

“Damn it”

Seonwoo sighed and frowned.

Even though he wielded his sword countless times, he was unable to reach the state of unifying the body and sword.

Chaenggrang

Seonwoo tossed the Yongmi Yeongeom straight to the floor.

It was because his hand went numb just with the sword he was holding.

Dump

And then he sat down.

‘Why can’t the new sword union work?’

Sunwoo fell into trouble.

Didn’t he reach the realm of unification with the new sword even when he cut the sword of Hwangbogang (刀劍不侵)?

After the work with Hwang Bo-segawa was completed

Sunwoo swung his sword frantically.

To remember the feeling I had then.

However, he rather felt regressed, but did not feel that anything was getting better.

Sunwoo became depressed.

Because he felt like he was hitting the limits of his talent.

‘Am I not talented?’

A feeling of remorse began to form in Sunwoo’s mind.

I wanted to go further.

He was able to kill all of Geomwang, Dokma, and Heavenly King, but his enemies were still as strong as ever.

No matter how much he reached the state of Hwagyeong and could use a rare new skill called Geongondaenai, he was less than a toe compared to Lee Jae-won.

Even though Lee Jae-won looks stupid, isn’t he definitely a martial god who overcame the heavenly horse by learning the Kungondaenai to the extreme?

If he were to face him in his current state, Seon-woo would be bloodied in just one hit.

Burr

His whole body started to tremble.

To be honest, when it was only at the climax or the second peak, there was only a vague sense of fear for Lee Jae-won.

This is because, to him, there was only one thing that he could not touch, whether he was a master of hwagyeong or a master of hyeongyeong.

However, after reaching the state of Hwagyeong, Seonwoo was able to realize it.

How transcendent and terrifying is the realm of Hyungyeong.

Masters who have reached Hwagyeong have enough power to overwhelm the Munpa with their existence alone.
Then, what about the master of Hyungyeong?

I don’t know, but the master of the hyeongyeong must have enough power to overwhelm a small country.

As such, it could be said that the status of masters who have reached the present state is unique.

Seon-woo had to overcome such a master of Hyeon-gyeong.

No, even if I couldn’t jump over it, I had to rise to at least an equal level.

Even more so in order to protect themselves and, by extension, their people.

The unification of the body and sword was just a stage in the process.

Only after going through this process can you prepare a stepping stone to advance to a higher level.

Seonwoo struggled and struggled again.

It was to learn how to become one with the sword.

Jerk jerk jerk

It was then.

I heard footsteps from behind.

Waking up from his thoughts at the sound of footsteps in his ears, Seonwu turned his head to where the footsteps were heard.

There, an unparalleled beauty in a pure white white coat was walking by.

She was a jade spirit

“I guess it’s still not going well?”

The jade spirit sent her a worried look and opened her mouth.

“It’s not as good as I thought.”

In response to her question, Seonwoo lowered his head and accepted her words.

“At that time, taking a break may help more than pushing yourself.”

Seeing Seonwoo like that, Okryeong opened her mouth as if feeling sorry for her.

Seon-woo held the sword constantly after he sent Hwang Bo-sega to the palace.

To make the realization gained while fighting Hwang Bo-gang my own.

He rented an outbuilding for every inn he heard, and swung his sword nonstop in the empty lot behind the outbuilding.

Sleeping less, eating only as much as bird feed, and wielding only a sword, Seonwoo’s physical condition was unreasonable.

I don’t know if it’s because I opened my eyes and didn’t absorb nutrients properly, but the recovery of the wound was slow.

Furthermore, isn’t Seon-woo still in a situation where the wound he received from Hwang Bo-gang hasn’t healed yet?

However, he overworked his body and was unable to recover.

“No, right now it’s more important to take enlightenment as my own than rest.”

At her words, Seonwoo sighed and flatly refused.

It was enough to sleep so that one could sleep even in death, and to eat enough to live.

Now, the improvement of martial arts was more important than that.

“Seonwoo, how about having more peace of mind? Looking at Sunwoo now, it seems like he’s obsessed with martial arts as if he’s being chased by something.”

“…”

“You didn’t eat properly and only swung a sword. I’m worried that you might get hurt.”

Sunwoo couldn’t say anything at her words.

Because what she said was true.

“I’m afraid.”

He didn’t say anything for a long time, but soon began to tell the truth.

“I’m afraid that my enlightenment will just fly away, I’m afraid that I won’t be able to take advantage of the opportunity to reach a level. I’m afraid that I’m weak and I’m afraid I’ll lose everyone.”

Yes.

Sunwoo was afraid.

I’m afraid I’ll miss the opportunity to realize that I risked my life to gain

I’m afraid I’ll miss an opportunity to become stronger.

If not now, I didn’t know when the opportunity to become stronger again would come.

She reached Hwagyeong and learned the new art of Geongon Daenai, but Seonwoo was still weak.

This time, I was able to know while fighting Hwang Bo-gang and Cheonwangdae.

She said that she became stronger, but not overwhelmingly stronger.

She herself was weak.

Infinitely

Fear began to form in Sunwoo’s eyes.

It was then

Imprisonment

The jade spirit approached and held Seonwoo in his arms.

“Jade..Ryeong?”

Seonwoo raised his head at the sudden feeling of warmth.

When she raised her head, Jade Spirit was looking at Sunwoo with her sad eyes.

“Sunwoo, don’t be afraid.”

Pat pat

Jade Spirit slowly began to pat her Sunwoo’s back.

“Here I am, and don’t try to shoulder it all by yourself. The willingness to protect is touching, but am I not such a passive person?”

Smack smack

Ok-ryeong touched her sunwoo’s back with her hand, which had been patting her, and continued her words.

“Let’s overcome it together. Not alone, but together.”

Hearing Ok-ryeong’s words, Seon-wu felt his tension gradually ease.

In addition, the warm embrace of her jade spirit made Seonwu feel indescribably cozy.

The thought of wanting to fall asleep in her arms like this came naturally to her.

“Thank you… Jade Spirit”

I felt something stable.

“What.”

At Seonwoo’s words, Okryung smiled brightly and said.

Soon after, Jade Spirit slowly removed Seonwoo from her arms.

“Ah”

Seonwoo unknowingly let out a sad sigh.

It was because I didn’t want to fall like this.

“Sunwoo, would you like to dance with me?”

Ok-ryeong, who removed Seon-woo from her body, made a sudden proposal.

“Yes?”

Seonwoo asked her questioningly.

“It’s good to seek enlightenment alone, but sometimes it’s not bad to experience it with your body.”

Seuleung

After she had finished speaking, she began to draw her sword from her sword belt that was hung beside her.

“Moreover, Seonwoo never really stuck with me, right?”

“That…Isn’t it?”

There was none.

Although she had sparred in the meantime, it was because she had adjusted her strength, so she had no chance to hit with her power.

“Why don’t we take this opportunity to see who is stronger?”

She said to Sunwoo with a bright smile.

“Great.”

Seonwoo readily agreed to her proposal.

If you think about it, isn’t the level of unification of the new swords reached in the fierce battle with Hwang Bo-gang?

If she went through a real battle with the Jade Spirit, she might be able to catch her clue again.

At Seonwoo’s answer, the smile on Okryung’s lips grew even thicker.

*********

Seonwu and Okryeong established a few rules before the sword dance.

First of all, it was the limitation of history.

Both of them decided not to use their strength.

It was because it was obvious that if the master of the Hwagyeong fought, his life could be in danger and the vacant land would be a mess.

It was an empty lot attached to the back of the outbuilding, but it was clearly private property.

There was no way I could break a place like that.

And the second was weapon restrictions.

Seonwu wielded another sword in place of the Yongmi Yeongeom.

The same was true of Jade Spirit.

Instead of Baekhwageom, the treasured sword of Baekgeommun, he wielded a regular longsword.

“Jade Spirit, are you really okay?”

Seonwu asked Okryeong as if he was worried.

If internal energy is limited, women are in a much more disadvantaged position than men.

Compared to men due to innate physical characteristics, women are inferior in strength, stamina, durability, agility, and even reaction speed, as well as strength.

As long as internal strength is limited, the Jade Spirit also has physical limitations.

Even when setting the rules for the first time, Seonwoo was worried about Jade Spirit and asked if it would be better to use about 10 years of strength.

At Sunwoo’s words of concern, Ok-ryeong smiled slightly and just shook her head.

In the end, both of them put limits on their inner strength, but Seonwoo was worried.

He feared that he would hurt the Jade Spirit.

“I’m fine.”

To Sunwoo’s words, Ok-ryeong only smiled and replied.

At her reply, Seonwoo sighed inwardly.

Despite her clear answer, she was worried.

She felt that she should do it in moderation.

“Jade Spirit, come in now.”

Seonwoo gestured to Okryong to come in first.

She thought that if she attacked first, Jade Spirit might be hurt.

But it didn’t take long to realize that the idea was an illusion.

Chain fluid

It was because the sword of the jade spirit, which had approached at some point, rushed at Seonwoo.

`Fast.`

Seonwoo admired inwardly and raised his sword upward to cut off her sword.

“Ugh”

However, she changed her sword path before she knew it, and her sword reached Seonwoo’s neck.

Rumble

Is it because of the slight cut?

A stream of blood began to flow down Sunwoo’s neck.

Sunwoo looked at her with a puzzled look on her face.

“Sunwoo, you’ll have to do it right. I’m very strong, right?”

Ok-ryeong, who received Seon-wu’s gaze, smiled brightly and continued her words.

“You keep saying that you’ll look after me, but that’s very rude. Sunwoo is weaker than me.”

She looked at Seonwoo and casually said something that stabbed her bone.

Soon, Seonwoo was able to wake up from the illusion.

She was a super master who fought with Geomhwang.

In other words, it was the same as saying that he was a master of kendo who had already reached the level on the day of the new sword union.

There was no way that a master who reached the new sword union would be weak because he had no history.

“I’ll invalidate this one and give you another chance. Do I have to do it right this time?”

She put the sword she had on her neck and said to Sunwoo.

“Yes”

At her words, Seonwoo put on a puzzled expression and stuttered in reply.

And she reflected on herself for being careless.

I don’t even know the subject, and who said he would take care of whom?

She had never had a proper match with the Jade Spirit before, so she couldn’t believe it, but she was already a master above herself.

Realizing that fact made her feel like an idiot for thinking she would look after her.

It was obvious that she, too, would have laughed inwardly.

Now I could understand why she was laughing all over her body.

She would have been cute

The little puppy tried to match the wolf.

Soon, Sunwoo shook his head from side to side.

How careless is she?

Had she been in real combat now, she herself would have had her neck blown off.

His martial arts had become stronger, but his head was still foolish.

Seonwoo fixed her sword with her eyes shining.

“Your eyes are nice.”

Seeing this, Jade Spirit smiled slightly.

Gun gun

Then, he turned around and distanced himself from Seonwoo again.

“Will Seonwoo come first this time?”

After some distance, she looked back at Seonwoo and continued her words.

Nod

At her question, Sunwoo nodded his head.

Sunwoo put strength into the hand holding the sword.

Then he kicked her to the ground and ran at her.

Breaking Bad

When Seonwu’s sword cut through the wind, it flew towards Jade Spirit.

Visor

Jade Spirit leisurely blocked Seonwoo’s sword and bounced it back.

Puck

Then she lifted her foot and hit Seonwoo’s chest hard.

“Keugh”

Rumble

Seonwoo, who was hit by her kick straight ahead, was pushed back and groaned in sudden pain.

She was a woman with no backbone, but she had the power of her feet in her feet.

Seonwoo raised her sword again and lunged at her.
