Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor Chapter 355

Episode 355

It took some time to understand the situation.

‘Why?’

I couldn’t understand the monk’s actions as he kicked away a golden opportunity.

I didn’t even push him away, but he left on his own.

‘It was a golden opportunity to destroy the precariously maintained balance.’

There was no time to sit idle in thought.

I twisted my upper body and swung my sword to avoid the wooden baton flying from the side.

The sixth herbivorous meal, Pyeonwol (片月).

Herbal food made in the shape of a crescent moon.

The sword strike, which soared in a gentle curve, fell down in a steep curve the next moment.

Geogwal pressed down on the three wooden poles held above his head at once.

Monks who lose their balance and stumble.

I didn’t miss the opportunity and kicked one of the dogs in the stomach.

Kwazijic!

As if he had been waiting, one of the Eighteen Arhats stepped forward to protect his group.

The wooden pole, which could not withstand the impact, broke and was cut in half, but the monk, who had managed to pull himself out backwards, leisurely took his place with another person.

I clicked my tongue and kicked away the fragments of the broken wooden stick.

Sigh!

The fragment, loaded with powerful energy, was blocked by the wooden baton wielded by the monk.

‘Let’s try it.’

To give the team members time to adjust their stance, I ran straight towards Nahan, who stepped forward.

Puff puff!

Wooden sticks protruding from various places hit my body.

Although I protected myself with self-defense equipment, that didn’t mean I wasn’t shocked.

My eyes frowned slightly from the pain.

‘You have to bear the damage. ‘You can’t turn the situation around if you’re too cautious.’

In order to win, there was a need to push a little harder.

Twenty-third herbivory, Suwol (水月).

The remnants that remained along the sword’s path crumbled into countless blades.

Despite the waves of welcome waves, Nahan reacted calmly without blinking.

He accurately distinguished between false and false, and with minimal movement, he only chose to block attacks that were a threat to him.

‘now!’

Immediately after, something invisible behind him began to take the shape of a blade.

The willpower created by inexperienced skills could not be maintained for long and dissipated like a mirage.

It was enough to divert the Arhat’s attention.

In a panic, he thrust his wooden baton into the empty air and stabbed the swordsman into his side.

“Ugh!”

Arhat tears down Shinhyeong with a suppressed groan.

The monks, who did not understand what was happening, urgently pushed me away with wooden sticks.

‘indeed.’

The facial expressions were quite worth seeing.

For the first time since the sparring began, the crack that had appeared seemed to be embarrassing.

‘I guess I get it roughly.’

I twisted the corner of my lips up and kicked off the ground.

Then, sword energy poured down like a heavy rain towards the ground.

The twentieth herbivorous meal, Nakwol (落月).

The floor of the training hall broke, and a cloud of dust rose up.

Even though my view was blocked, the monks followed the leader’s call and stabbed me with their wooden batons, aiming precisely for where I was.

Kwazijijik!

I swung my sword overlaid with brain energy and destroyed them all at once, then kicked the air and rushed towards Gamwon.

Gamwon twitched his eyebrows as if he didn’t know that he would suddenly be targeted.

At the perfect moment, he raised his wooden stick at an angle and blocked my path.

One end of the wooden pole covered with steel was in contact with the floor.

It looked like it used the ground as support.

I felt like if I crashed like this, I would get seriously injured.

‘I expected it to come out like that.’

The next moment, a false flag steel device materialized in the air on Gamwon’s side.

This time it didn’t last long and dispersed, but it was enough to distract the opponent’s attention.

Taking advantage of Gamwon’s gaze turning to the side, I did a somersault and landed on the wooden pole.

Then, I closed the gap using Lee Hyeong-hwanwi’s technique and plunged my fist into his abdomen.

The first herbal method of Byeokryeokwon, Paamkwon (破巖拳).

Implementing a regime with the might of ten thousand years of power.

Gamwon belatedly protected the hitting point with his left hand, but there was a feeling that his preparation for the impact was insufficient.

Whoops!

The new model bounced off and rolled around on the ground.

Although he quickly got up and regained his posture, it seemed like he had suffered some internal injuries, as blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth.

As if to interrupt the chase, I was hit backwards by a barrage of wooden sticks.

It wasn’t such a great success, but I was still very excited.

The advice the Sword King gave me earlier flashed through my mind.

[The most important factor in implementing and operating a false steel device is none other than intention.]

[In my case, I trained while picturing in my mind the sword of Namgung, which I have been training for my entire life.]

I felt like I finally figured it out now.

The meaning of what he said then.

‘I can’t believe it was possible to use it this way.’

There was no set framework for the use of the artificial form device.

It was possible to use it in a variety of ways depending on the caster’s capabilities.

‘I knew that fact in my head.’

I didn’t know that I was stuck in a rut.

Like a fool, I tried to follow the same path as others.

[In other words, you and I have different directions of enlightenment.]

[Because the ways to use the white lightning are endless. It wouldn’t be surprising if the spreading branch splits in the middle.]

‘The Sword King and I are different.’

Whether it was Uihyeongganggi or Baekreigi, the essence was the same.

Just as my teacher and I took different paths even though we learned the same method of thinking.

Although the Sword King and I both learned the same sword techniques, it was natural that there were differences in the way we used the sword.

Now I know for sure.

The direction of martial arts that I should pursue.

‘Isn’t the swordsmanship I’ve been practicing my whole life none other than the magic sword?’

* * *

The false flag is invisible to the eye.

Even feeling it through energy is not easy.

Therefore, it was not easy for even masters who had reached the absolute level to learn how to use it.

Even those who had already reached the modern world a long time ago learned only a limited number of techniques and used them in practice, not for any other reason.

To put this backwards, it meant that a low-ranking military officer could not easily detect the intentions of a master of Hyeon-gyeong, no matter what he did with his sword.

Even I have had quite a bit of experience experiencing similar situations.

Before my energy sense expanded through the fight with the Blood Flower Witch, I had a hard time dealing with absolute experts.

‘When I vaguely sensed the presence of a self-defense weapon, I immediately retreated from a distance or covered my entire body with a self-defense weapon. When I think about it now, it was a truly ineffective response.’

The reason why the monk, who had taken a golden opportunity, got scared and attacked.

The reason why Arhat, who was skillfully parrying my attacks, was wary of the sword of his not-so-properly implemented form and showed a loophole.

This was the reason why the reduction of personnel was allowed to be so simple and frustrating.

His excellent senses, which allowed him to vaguely feel the power of the sword, actually acted as a poison.

It was a method that only worked for the highly skilled members of the Hundred Eight Nahan Jin.

If you use it often, it will soon be discovered that it is a trick, so it should not be used excessively.

‘It is enough to use it once at a critical moment. The point is to psychologically intimidate the opponent.’

Absolutely! Quick!

The sphere of brain energy condensed in the air exploded.

The Arhats, including Gamwon, used the monks behind them as support to repel the attack and sequentially hurled wooden batons.

The monks who were holding broken wooden sticks had already replaced their weapons with new ones.

This is why the wheel-to-wheel combat between so many people was scary.

This side’s stamina and endurance are decreasing by the minute, but the other side is constantly being replenished with personnel and supplies.

The fourteenth herbivorous ceremony, Naewol (來月).

He rotated the new type halfway and drew the wooden sticks that were in contact with the sword towards his body.

Ta-da-dan!

I rotated in reverse and shook them off, and all of the wooden sticks soared into the sky.

The twenty-second herbivorous meal, Sangwol (霜月).

Every time I swung the sword, particles of energy flew like frost.

The second group, which had switched places with the first group and was pushing in, hesitated and stopped in place.

It seemed like he intuitively realized that he shouldn’t jump into the herbivorous area.

The twenty-fourth herbivorous ceremony, Cheonwol (天月).

Following the sword’s path, the remaining remnants crumbled and turned into countless energy swords.

Once again, a wave of energy and sword engulfed the monks.

The huge backlash left me defenseless for a moment, but this time no one approached me carelessly.

Perhaps it was the Arhats who warned us with a message.

Be careful of false flags.

‘Good.’

If a little while ago, it seemed like I was being pushed unilaterally, now a somewhat equal picture was emerging.

Of course, even this would not last long.

If it was a long game, I would eventually get tired first.

The deception will also be revealed.

‘We need to go one step further. ‘Illegality only shows its true power when reality exists.’

The true value of the Hwangeom lies in the real weapon hidden within the illusion.

Now, I was just a Hadon that inflated its size and threatened the enemy.

‘I think of the sword I’ve been training with and embody it.’

One last step.

Only by taking this step could I find a way out.

* * *

‘I can’t believe it.’

Gamwon, the head of the Shaolin Temple’s Eight Great Guards, clicked his tongue.

They say he is the greatest genius in Joongwon history.

The growth rate was beyond imagination.

When they just started sparring, they looked precarious as if they would collapse at any moment, but now they have completely leveled off.

‘No matter how limited weapons and martial arts are, is this still possible?’

Of course, even so, there was no change in the fact that the Shaolin Temple side was in an advantageous situation.

Because this side is the majority and that side is alone.

If I kept pushing, I would eventually run out of strength and collapse.

‘The prestige of Shaolin Temple is at stake. You must never be defeated.’

My right hand, which was holding the wooden bar, put strength into it.

Even if I figured out how to use the prosthesis, I still wouldn’t be able to handle it perfectly.

Because no martial artist in the world can skillfully use a technique that he has not yet embodied.

‘Even if you get hit directly by a sword, you can survive if you are determined and prepared.’

With that in mind, I took a step forward.

Yeonsun, who was exchanging attacks and defense with a dozen monks, suddenly threw his sword at Gamwon.

‘Fighting swordsmanship (馭劍術)!’

It was the moment when Gamwon’s eyes lit up and he tried to respond.

Sigh!

Something sharp dug into his abdomen.

His eyes widened at the unexpected pain.

* * *

“okay. “We finally made it happen.”

A Buddha muttering while rolling the prayer beads in his hand.

His wrinkled eyes were curved like a crescent moon.

I started looking into it when a sphere of brain energy was formed in the empty air.

That Yeon-woon is already unconsciously handling Ui-hyeong-gang-gi.

“Now I can finally use the weapons I have properly.”
