Episode 848
Core of the Typhoon (5)
Even Cheon Hyo-rak felt the energy of the Absolute that suddenly came upon him.
I couldn’t help but feel it. I stormed in, radiating energy waves generously as if I was the best in the world. The energy wave would have gone beyond the outer castle and reached the inner castle.
Cheon Hyo-rak and Hwa-hyang ran out in surprise and saw an old man.
“…!!”
Cheon Hyorak’s eyes shook as if there had been an earthquake.
He was a tall old man. The sword drawn was an iron sword commonly available in the market, but the old man’s indescribable sharp prayer forged the ordinary sword into a divine sword of immortality.
‘If you have that much sword energy…?’
Not a single trace of good energy is visible. He was simply a man with a powerful, sharp and upright sword that had no bending in the slightest, reaching all the way to the sky.
‘Sword Emperor Namgung Seung!!’
It wasn’t just Cheon Hyo-rak.
Everyone gathered here noticed the presence of Namgung Seung. It was that strong and that unique of a prayer.
In addition, a member of the Murim League could not have known the meaning of the word Changcheon (蒼天) engraved on the blue jangsam worn by Namgung Seung.
“The Namgung family!”
“It’s the old Geomje!”
“Three goodness!”
The murmuring voices grew louder in an instant.
The spirit of Gosu, who has reached Seongcheon, overwhelms his son-in-law. At their level, it was normal to not even be able to breathe due to the strong energy waves, let alone open your mouth.
Nevertheless, being able to ‘react’ means that Namgung Seung’s prayers are strictly directed only to Yeonhojeong.
In other words, it meant that almost all of the energy was concentrated on Yeon Ho-jeong, and the remaining fragments of energy were overwhelming everyone gathered here.
‘It’s huge.’
Those whose names are listed in the Holy Heaven are all monsters.
During the time of the Emperor of Darkness, his level was very high. Since he was ranked among the top three in the world, it could be said that he was stronger than the Three Emperors of the Immortal Emperors.
However, at that time, most of Seongcheon had already gone missing. In fact, Yangcheon was the only one who met a master named Seongcheon.
The point is that it was impossible to compare absolute force. How could it be that just Saeumgyo would have brought Jungwon to that point?
‘Is there anyone like this?!’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face showed more emotion than admiration.
Emperor Ha Eungyo was so confused that he was unable to see his true skills. Geomseon Takmuja was closer to a Taoist than a martial artist, and since we met in a unique place, it was difficult to know his limitations.
Now, Yeonhojeong has finally seen the true power of the Three Emperors.
‘There is no difference from Tuwang. No, if you look at it only in terms of enlightenment….’
Of course, the fight is something you have to fight to know. Moreover, since Namgung Seung and Yang Cheon learned martial arts with different fundamental characteristics, it was difficult to determine who had a clear advantage.
But one thing was certain.
If Yang Cheon had not gained new enlightenment through his involvement with Yeon Hojeong and had not developed his current skills, he would have definitely fallen behind Namgung Seung.
‘The sword itself is purely refined without any impurities.’
A surprise not about the state but about the person himself.
The surprise gradually began to turn into a desire to win. It was a feeling that even I was embarrassed by.
“So to speak…”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
“Do you want to fight?”
Namgung Seung’s mouth twitched.
“You’re an opponent who doesn’t need to be packaged with noble words. Yes. I want a fight.”
It was a tone that crossed between plainness and extremeness. As the previous head of the Namgung family, it would have been reasonable to save face, but there was not the slightest sign of that.
‘Seniors.’
Ha Eungyo said. The minds of those who have overcome the ultimate are all said to be unstable.
To put it simply, it is not normal. It can’t be normal. How can the minds of those who have ascended to a level not permitted to humans and recognized things they should not perceive be normal?
Even after reaching that level, there are not many people who have built a mental barrier that is no different from usual.
However, enlightenment is not high enough. There was a moment when, if I couldn’t fully control myself, I would end up looking like a weirdo in the eyes of others.
The higher your level, the more enlightenment you gain, the more likely you are to be exposed to such an environment. Perhaps Namgung Seung is also standing on that borderline.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was looking at Nam Gung-seung quietly, nodded.
“If it’s a fight with you, I’m also very welcome.”
A smile appeared on Namgung Seung’s face.
It was a smile that looked natural, but the joy contained within it was incredible.
“He is truly a junior I like.”
“But there is a condition.”
“What are the conditions?”
Yeon Ho-jeong pointed to the area near the castle with his thumb.
“If you go northwest from here, there is a training ground in the outer castle. It is the largest training hall in the Murim League. I hope it sticks there.”
“The location doesn’t matter.”
“I want my senior and I to display our martial arts skills to the world in front of everyone.”
Namgung Seung frowned.
“You mean to fight in front of other people?”
“That’s right.”
“It’s just a battle between unmanned and unmanned. “I don’t want to be the eye candy for onlookers.”
“It’s teaching before it’s eye candy.”
“teaching?”
“Senior Noh deserves respect for his martial arts skills, but he failed to fulfill his responsibility as a member of the Murim Alliance. Please spread enlightenment to the members through this meeting. “I encourage you to wash away some of your past mistakes.”
Namgung Seung’s eyebrows rose.

“Failed to fulfill my responsibilities? Mistake?”
“That’s right.”
“Is what you are saying to me right now?”
“of course.”
Wooooow.
The iron sword trembled faintly. The anger of the Sword Emperor of the Central Plains was conveyed in the vibrations made by the dark sword blade.
“…If you say something without a good reason, you will have to take responsibility.”
It was such vivid anger that it turned the cold late winter weather into hot midsummer.
That pure anger was like the pure white heat that blacksmiths pursue throughout their lives.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
He has also grown to the point where he can smile without being forced even in the face of the Geomje’s vivid anger.
“It would be long to explain the situation. “If the fight is important to you, I will explain the circumstances after the fight.”
Namgung Seung thought. It’s clear that he’s an amazing guy in many ways.
This was my first time seeing someone who tried to make a deal without even asking for a favor in front of the Sword Emperor of the World.
‘Well, you have the right to be arrogant.’
A level and talent that transcends age.
He destroyed all human common sense and ultimately entered the realm. In fact, it was a force that would be understandable even if it were more disrespectful than this.
Of course, understanding and forgiveness are different issues.
“good night. “It doesn’t matter if you’re just a bystander, as long as they can see your power.”
“As expected, you are simple.”
“Instead, let me give you some advice.”
“Please speak.”
“The spirit of victory that I thought was under control is burning to the fullest. If it’s not martial arts that can satisfy me, I won’t forgive even if it’s a waste of talent. “You will have to risk your neck in this fight.”
It was a terrifying statement.
These were not words that would come out of the mouth of the previous head of the royal family, Namgung Se, the most prestigious swordsman in the central region.
Yeon Ho-jeong, whom Namgung-seung saw, was a talented person who deviated from common sense, but if you look closely, Namgung-seung was also a person who was far from common sense.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s smile turned cold.
“You won’t be disappointed.”
“what?!”
Bonggong and the elders could not contain their astonishment.
“You mean Geomje, an old man?”
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Namgoongin.
But Namgoongin was also surprised. I heard that the father and son would come together, but I had no idea that they would arrive already.
But what is even more surprising than that.
“Bi bimu?”
“That’s right. “Currently, many people, regardless of status, are gathering at the second training hall in the outer castle.”
“this!”
The public ambassador suddenly stood up.
“This is not the time. Let’s go quickly.”
“That’s right!”
Everyone was surprised, but the people who were most surprised had to be Yeonwi and Namgungin.
The gazes of the two people who were leaving the conference room collided.
Yeonwi’s worried eyes and Namgungin’s rigid eyes seemed somehow similar.
* * *
The area around the training ground was extremely quiet.
The rumor spread as quickly as a horse without feet, and countless people flocked to it. There were many people not only around the training ground but also on the roof of a building in the distance, looking down.
But no one could easily open their mouths.
“her!”
Makwon, who had run faster than anyone else due to his unusual momentum, stuck out his tongue as he looked at Namgung Seung who was a long way away.
“I never imagined I would see Geomje senior. “I had to look forward to meeting you someday.”
“So do i.”
Yeon Ho-jeong took off his long clothing and put down his black and white double dragon belt, revealing and tying a dragon chain over his clothes.
Makwon shook his head.
“Anyway, your brother is really prone to accidents.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“Why is this an accident? “It’s a friendly meeting.”
“You may be like that, but Geomje senior doesn’t seem to think so?”
Monk Namgung, who had already climbed onto the training ground, was sitting cross-legged as if showing off. I placed my sword on my lap and closed my eyes, but it seemed like these many people didn’t care at all.
“Yeon Gongja.”
There was also worry on Mukbi’s face as he approached.
“What’s happening all of a sudden?”
“Bimuji.”
“Isn’t it necessary for the performer to take the lead in dancing in the gym in front of everyone?”
“How did you know?”
“Then, would you say that someone as powerful as the Sword Emperor called someone over and let’s fight?”
It wasn’t wrong. Yeon Ho-jeong just laughed.
Jinyang, who was quietly looking at Yeonhojeong, suddenly spoke.
“You were right.”
“what?”
“I heard I wouldn’t be bored if I went around with you.”
“Do you understand now?”
“For some reason, I picture my future suffering to the point of death in the situation you played in. Is this an illusion?”
“Stop talking nonsense and take a close look at this match. It is a battle of martial arts players that cannot be easily seen anywhere. “It will be a lot of studying.”
“…Surely that was the purpose?”
Kang Ryang said.
“Normally, I would say something, but I can’t say anything because it’s the other person.”
“You too, learn a lot. “Please pay attention to the route boat, not me.”
“of course.”
“More than seventy percent of the martial arts people carry swords at their waists. Among them, the majority are swordsmen. “It will be a wonderful learning experience for you as well as the countless swordsmen gathered here.”
“It’s good to learn, but don’t be discouraged. Just looking at it, the atmosphere on the ferry is unusual.”
“I get it.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked around.
I saw Mo Yong-woo in the distance. Mo Yong-woo, who made eye contact, sighed with an embarrassed look on his face.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled once and turned his head again.
There was Yeon Ji-pyeong with a stiff expression. My father was also there next to Yeon Ji-pyeong when he arrived.
Yeon Ho-jeong slightly bowed his head towards Yeon Wi and sent a message to Yeon Ji-pyeong.
Yeon Ji-pyeong, who flinched for a moment, then nodded vigorously.
There were many other people as well. In particular, the expressions on the faces of Bonggong and the elders were overwhelming. They wanted to stop him, but they could not, and although they wanted to see the fierce battle between the masters, their faces were filled with many worries.
‘I guess I’ll have to apologize separately.’
In addition, Cheonhyorak and Hwahyang were also seen. I saw Namgoongpyo, whom I had seen once before, and also Namgoonghyeon, who was out of breath.
‘So many people gathered.’
After looking up at the sky for a moment, Yeon Ho-jeong grabbed the light dragon and went up to the training ground.
at that time.
Flash!
Namgung Seung opened his eyes and slowly stood up.
“Are you ready?”
Yeon Ho-jeong grinned.
Oooooh!
He completely released the control of the God of Light and took a stance.
“Please skip the stupid full name.”
Namgung Seung’s eyes twitched.
Slurp.
The iron sword was drawn.
