Chapter 453 – King Yan’s Disciple 4 (30)

I carried Shahemos on my back to show others how I was taking him.

However, if I walk slowly and talk to my family, they will inevitably tell me that I have to leave Shahemos behind because I am going to a dangerous place, so I plan to just show them that I am taking them with me.

There was no one who could stop me as I circulated my energy and moved quickly even without stepping on the wave wheel.

After leaving the Han Manor in the middle of the night while receiving people’s attention, he moved towards his destination, Hefei, where the Nangong family was located.

He ran on two feet until he escaped the enemy territory, and when he escaped the barrier and reached a place where people could not find him, he reverse-summoned Shahemoth and created a pair of black and white wheels within his body.

(Master, are you planning to go at full speed?)

(It is important to quickly check the Namgung family, but it is also important for me to protect the enemy, right?)

He created six white wheels on his back and converted all his internal energy into propulsion.

Swooooo!

Although Shadow Armor is weak to impact, it can sufficiently handle air resistance, allowing it to fly very quickly at the cost of extreme energy consumption.

‘There’s a reason why Master doesn’t use it.’

I can use Skill Link to absorb mana through surrounding shadows at night, but it is a skill that is not very fuel efficient for a teacher who can recover energy through heat.

My energy was being wasted like crazy to the point where I thought it would be better to gain enlightenment and use Chukjibeop.

‘What level is the natural scenery?’

A state where you can use the inner energy contained in all things as if it were your own.

Now, even though I can absorb the energy contained in heat and shadow, I have an incredible level of recovery, and I am curious about that level.

*

When I saw a monster while flying through the sky, I stopped in the sky for a moment and threw a rain of shadows.

I took a moment to catch my breath and killed the monsters that posed a great threat to those without military power. The number continued to increase the further north I went.

The level of monsters continued to increase as more hobgoblins were mixed among goblins and special individuals were mixed with lizardmen.

“What is there in Namgung Sega?”

(There will be a Sword King. I don’t think there will be another Bone Dragon.)

Is the Sword King who guards the Yokai Gate also treated as a monster? I couldn’t help but smile bitterly at Shahemos’ words.

After using Yeonyeong Shinkong to recover my energy and moving towards my destination again, a blue window suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.

“This is…”

(Master, what’s wrong?)

『Quest』

〈Destroy the dimensional gate created in Namgung Sega.〉

– Upon entering the area, Possession Return cannot be used until the quest is completed.

-Upon completion: ?

A quest with conditions? It seemed like the first time I had seen the condition of not being able to use Possessed Return.

A long time ago, when I first faced a powerful enemy in Lee Sian’s body, I did not return possessed by my own will.

Because I don’t know what will happen after I release the possession.

In order to protect Naeun, who had become attached to Lee Sian over the past few days, and who became the reason for his life, he fought against the evolved zombies until the end.

After that, I knew that if I used Return of Possession to go back, time for that level would stop, so in a way, I always had a secret weapon.

‘Is it better to go back and repair it?’

As I was stopping in the air and thinking about what to do, I could feel time slowing down.

‘Is it dangerous?’

By expanding the range of presence detection, we discovered risk factors.

(After the master!)

Just as Shahemos said, he stretched out a string of shadows on the floor right behind him and fired his white spirit upwards, landing on the floor.

A large red sword was passing by where I was before I moved, and when I turned around, a man holding a sword was approaching before I knew it.

“It seems different, but the fundamentals are similar to King Yeom.”

A man with an eyepatch covering one of his eyes was holding a sword brimming with red energy.

It seemed like he was not an ordinary expert as I saw that the sword had a well-formed red energy rather than the heat-containing pottery used by the Hyeongmyeonpaedo that I was able to play with.

“Who are you?”

“Me? My lord. I got it a long time ago when I defeated a demonic cult.”

“Are you going to Hefei to resolve the incident with the Nangung family?”

“Huh? The destination is the same, but the purpose is different.”

From those words, I realized that King Nang was my enemy who had decided to join forces with Kaena.

‘If this is the case, the Sword King is not the problem, is it?’

The red sword flashed.

I tried to read the trajectory of the attack using calmness and insight, but my mind was pounding with so many options.

‘The level of Taoism is on a different level.’

I tried to increase the distance between me and King Nang by stepping backwards.

King Nang’s red energy caused countless changes very quickly, like lightning, and it was impossible to avoid.

The Quagga Gaga River!

Although he wrapped himself in shadow armor, he was unable to completely block the sword wielded by King Nang.

“Wow!”

(Master!)

Although it avoided being cut, it couldn’t do anything about the strong impact, so it flew backwards.

And at that time, I was able to find out that Possession Return cannot be used when entering the area mentioned in the quest.

It feels as if Yu Xian’s soul, possessed by Han Xian, has completely settled down, and the gap that should exist between classes has been greatly reduced.

【Han Sian-(100%)+(EX 70%)】

【Level: 5】

【Combat power: 1699+(938)】

While recovering, I opened the status window and checked the EX possession rate, which doubled from the previous 35% to 70%.

And at level 5, I confirmed that I had gained the power of a transcendental person to fight the king in front of me.

Kwagagagaga river!

“Ugh!”

It flew back again.

It was my fault for glancing at the status window, but the king’s attack was much fiercer than I expected.

“Hoo. You mean I won’t die from one hit? It must be the first time in a long time that I feel like I’ve been killed.”

“I had no intention of fighting the king at such strange timing.”

There are seven rings that I can use now, excluding the two that hold the black and white twin rings. When the Tao King saw the seven white rings that appeared in the air, he immediately swung the sword.

Although I didn’t swing the sword quickly with a big movement, the red lightning was very threatening when it came towards me, like a typhoon is created by the flapping of a butterfly’s wings.

‘I think it would be better to use Baekryun than to use Shadow Armor for defense.’

I moved Baekryun with the thought that at least in the case of Hansian, which is based on heat, it would be better.

Kwagak! Kagak! Kakak!

As Baekryun moved, he blocked the most threatening red energy.

The moment I blocked the attack, I felt like one of King Wang’s eyes was shining slightly, and it seemed like he was planning to use more strength.

“Heavenly thunder.”

King Nang grabbed the air with his free left hand and pulled it down.

Seeing red lightning pouring down from the sky, it seemed like all the people named king in the central plains were monsters.

After sending the remaining Baekryun into the air, he used Bunyeom (噴炎).

The hot heat emitted as the white ring resonated was able to block the red lightning shooting out of the air.

‘Could it have been used for defense?’

I used it instinctively without thinking deeply, but the effect was greater than I expected.

In order to kill enemies, the temperature of the heat emitted was increased, and by compressing the heat, it could be used similar to a wide shield.

“It feels like I’m fighting a completely different opponent. The fundamentals are Yeonyeom Shingung, but isn’t it amazing that the directions pursued by a teacher and a student can be so different?”

“He told me to do whatever I want from the 8th star.”

“Really? When I think about it, I also like cutting, so I picked up a sword instead of a sword. It was a shame in the past that I couldn’t use herbal skills related to stabbing.”

When I used Perception, red lightning flashed as a single point.

When it occurred to me that it was impossible to block the dot by moving the white wheel, I immediately used the par wheel.

It would be very unfortunate to destroy the black and white twin wheels, but if you don’t avoid it, you will definitely die.

Quagga gaga river!!!

Red lightning was shot towards the place I read about, and the red lightning heading into the air destroyed everything around it.

Although it did not carry a rotational force like a spiral breakthrough, lightning’s ability to spread to the surrounding area, or diffusion, was fully demonstrated, causing lightning to flash like crazy in the forest.

Continuing to evade and defend against attacks is an unconditional path to defeat, so I used the wave ring and put the momentary amplified power into my right fist.

Skill Link-Boost

Spiral breakthrough of continuous loop flow. Yeomryun Kwon (炎輪拳) Nine Wheels (nine wheels).

White flames spewed out from the tip of the fist that passed through nine rings of heat.

“Extreme lightning.”

The red force cutting through the white flames, the red force floating in the air, was spreading white flames around it heading towards King Nang.

I immediately recovered the heat and used the following technique to aim directly at King Nang.

The great wisdom of Yeonyeom Shingong (連炎神功).

Flame wheel and prayer beads.

The moment a ring of heat overlapped under the feet of the king who blocked my attack very efficiently, flames soared.

And as the flames were slashed away, the king without a trace of scorch rushed forward.

‘You’re just ignoring that too? I’m going crazy!’

Since you defeated Akajin, the quest to fight even more enemies is now…

‘Shit? The quest was to destroy the dimensional gate, right?’

I didn’t think the dimensional door would be broken that easily, but if you use Unlimited to break it with all your might, the restrictions on the possession’s return will be lifted.

After returning to Yuxian, I thought that the way to win would be to become stronger enough to face the king.

‘I don’t want to be followed around, but it’s right to break down the door first.’
