Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Episode 435

The needle of brain energy injected into Nangung Geum’s body moved around burning the residue stuck in the blood vessels.

The pace of work was slow.

I felt a sense of resistance that I had never experienced from people like Tang Seo-yeon or Cheon-woo Dojang who had trained in martial arts from a young age.

‘I’m laughing out loud.’

Rather than feeling tense, I felt frustrated and at a loss.

There were so many parts that needed to be addressed that I wondered if it would ever end.

It was not at the level of laying a foundation to build a strong house.

To put it in a metaphor, it was like digging up a hill with just one shovel.

Until the ground becomes flat.

It would have been easy to understand if they said that major construction work was underway to refine the terrain in order to build a high castle wall.

‘It won’t be easy.’

Even an absolute expert with the power of a great river would have limitations in maintaining concentration.

As long as we are human, we are bound to accumulate mental fatigue.

It was not a task that could be completed in one go.

I didn’t know that I would have to do it dozens or even hundreds of times.

‘It’s just right.’

It was a daunting task, so it was worth the challenge.

I expected that the process of improving Namgung Geum’s constitution would be of great help to my training.

The direction of my enlightenment was completely opposite to that of my teacher.

Condensation, not diffusion.

And detailed manipulation.

The operation of the Baekreogi had many similarities with the operation of the Uihyeonganggi.

If you repeat training to be able to operate more precisely, tactfully, and quickly, this will lead to improvement in your skills.

[I’ll praise you. You have proven your worth.]

The words that Lord Ma said to me in Banghyeon flashed through my mind.

The leader was far from the type of person who spoke empty words.

The fact that he acknowledged me meant that the tactics I used at the time felt that much of a threat.

‘The problem is that the same method cannot work twice.’

He was dispatched to Hubei with reinforcements and stayed at Zhuge Dynasty.

At the request of Jiryong (Knowing Dragon), I learned how to implement the sword in the process of checking the performance of the Seven Jade Jinn.

The power of the sword was terrifying.

So much so that it cannot be compared to any other art I have learned so far.

However, that was only when factors other than destructive power were not taken into consideration.

If you were to consider its usability in actual combat, you couldn’t help but shake your head.

‘The implementation of a medical sword comes with two major problems.’

First, the time required to cast it is long.

The second is that an extreme sense of helplessness comes over you after casting.

It takes some time to create the perfect shape of a sword by joining the pieces of the sword.

About five breaths.

It was a short time, but it was not realistically possible to allow that much time when dealing with an absolute expert.

So, in the fight against the Demon Cultist, he resorted to a gamble that focused on improvisation.

‘First, the cast time was drastically shortened by scattering the fragments of the materialized form everywhere and gathering them all at once.’

It was a one-time opportunity created by performing a series of spectacular herbivorous meals so that the leader would not feel uncomfortable.

The problem was that even though they did that, they could not defeat the religious leader.

He was not a religious leader who would fall for the same trick again.

It was clear that he would leave the spot as soon as he sensed signs of an attack next time.

‘There.’

The recoil that came after casting the sword should not be forgotten.

When I first implemented the sword, I was unable to overcome the overwhelming fatigue and even passed out.

In Banghyeon, wasn’t it possible to keep moving even after implementing the sword?

That was thanks to the continued effect of the bombing magic attack.

It’s not that I grew up in the short time between Zhuge Sega and heading to the battlefield.

‘In the end, in order to fight against the cult leader, there is no choice but to improve your fundamental skills.’

No matter how great a skill you learned, it was meaningless if you couldn’t use it in real life.

It is a secret weapon in which the risk that must be taken is greater than that of an intangible sword.

What meaning is there in a technique like that?

Therefore, it was necessary to be able to use the sword freely through constant training.

In that sense, Namgung Geum would be a good training partner.

‘It’s hard.’

Beads of sweat formed on my forehead.

I continued to manipulate the needle of the brain machine until I decided I could no longer maintain concentration.

“Whoa.”

It wasn’t until late evening that I took my hand off the Myeongmun acupuncture point and stood up with a groan.

As I released the acupoint, Namgunggeum looked back at me with an expression of admiration.

“I was surprised. “I can’t believe this is possible.”

“As you may have noticed, this is not a one-time task.”

“…I know it’s shameless to say this, but would you mind if I continue to ask you to do so?”

“of course. “If I had planned on ending it this vaguely, I wouldn’t have started from the beginning.”

“thank you. “I will definitely repay the kindness you have shown me.”

“I look forward to it.”

Grumble!

The beggar in his stomach was crying out for food.

It was a truly honest body.

I looked back at Namgunggeum with a puzzled expression and asked.

“Would you like to go eat together? “There is a guesthouse near the main altar that I know well.”

“That’s right. “I will do the calculations.”

“Are you sure you don’t mind? “The warrior’s treasure may be lost today.”

“My financial situation is not that tight.”

“great. “If that’s the case, I’ll take it without hesitation.”

* * *

On the way to Wolhwajang (月華莊), leaving Namgunggeum behind as he looks down at the empty battlefield with an expression of disbelief.

I felt a presence approaching from front and back and narrowed my eyes.

The number is four.

They were all warriors with a lot of energy in their stomachs.

‘I don’t think there is any hostility.’

Soon, the figures of men with their bamboo ribs pressed deeply came into view.

A middle-aged man, presumed to be the leader of the group, stepped forward and politely waved his hand.

“Are you waiting for me?”

“yes. I was waiting nearby, despite my disrespect, to see the manager. “I apologize if you felt uncomfortable.”

“I don’t really like the composition. “I feel like I’m under siege.”

“If you feel uncomfortable, I will have my subordinates bite. So, could you please take a moment?”

“Is there any reason for that?”

“The person I serve advised me that I must tell the story to the manager.”

“Isn’t that the warrior’s situation? “It seems like it has nothing to do with me.”

dump.

The man suddenly knelt down.

He then hit his head on the ground.

It was an expression and action that exuded desperation.

I asked, frowning.

“What are you doing?”

“please. A moment is enough. “Please pay attention.”

“The order is wrong.”

“……?”

“If you want to ask for a favor, you should first reveal your identity rather than just prostrating yourself. “I’m sorry, but that knee doesn’t give me any inspiration.”

“…Excuse me.”

The man quickly stood up and exchanged glances with his subordinates.

Before long, the other three, excluding the man, left the place and disappeared.

-I’m late in introducing myself. It is called Geoseong-yeon, who leads the Gonyeongdae.

-Gonyeongdae?

-I have met you once before at the Senate.

-If it were in the Senate…

-That’s right. At that time, I was among those whom the Cheonan Inspector General beat down.

-So are you here for revenge?

-Is that possible? As I said, I just came to convey the wishes of the person I serve.

-Who is the person you serve?

-This is Elder Jeong-kwon Ho.

I clicked my tongue inwardly.

Why did it seem like that?

I knew that Ho Jeong-gwon wanted to meet me because I heard from the owner of Hwayang Sangdan.

It was easy to predict how anxious he must have felt, as his position in the Senate had weakened due to the loss of support from the top.

Because he is a person who carries a lot on his shoulders.

In order to rebuild the Kunlun faction that collapsed due to the Demonic Cult, it was necessary to obtain support from other martial powers.

In preparation for that time, there was a need for the Gojeongkwon to firmly protect its position within the alliance.

‘It’s going to be painful.’

Other elders might not know.

Ho Jeong-kwon was in no position to tell the difference between hot and cold food.

It’s a conflict with the Cheonan Inspector General, and I’m in a position where I have to take care of myself first.

As such, he cannot possibly give up his relationship with me, who connected him with Hwayang Sangdan.

-You don’t have to listen to the end to understand. What are you trying to talk about? The idea is to set a time and place to meet, right?

-That’s right.

-Please go back and tell it. I don’t think so. Right now, I have no desire to take the time to speak alone with the elders.

-The elder said that he had an interesting proposal.

-I’m not interested.

-After listening, you are bound to become interested.

-……?

-What would you like to tell us about the spiritual seal?

Look at this?

I narrowed my eyes and glared at the man.

Perhaps because he felt pressured, the man quietly lowered his gaze.

‘It’s raining.’

Contrary to how I appeared on the outside, I was happy in my heart.

It was difficult to keep the corners of my mouth from twitching.

It was worth the effort of not meeting him right away.

A big fish took the bait.

In the end, it seemed like he decided to sell out a fellow elder for the sake of protecting his body.

‘You shouldn’t show that you’re happy.’

I had to maintain a calm attitude.

If you make it clear to the other party that this is A’s position, things will be easier in the future.

Only through a structure where people reluctantly agreed to negotiations could they truly take the lead.

-Is the Youngseong Dojo up to something?

-For more detailed information, you can hear it directly from the elder.

-…….

-I would like to ask you once again. Please take your time. I guarantee you, you won’t regret it.

I crossed my arms and looked up at the sky, pretending to be worried.

I thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to decline the offer now and then accept the offer the next time they contact me, but I decided not to.

‘It’s not good to take too much time.’

The bounce should also be appropriate.

If I wasn’t careful, the Hojeong-kwon could have held a grudge against me.

Shouldn’t all the fish caught escape the net and escape?

‘Maybe I should listen to what they’re saying.’

It’s time.

It is time to plant the seeds of division in the Senate.

-great. Let’s meet up sometime.

-thank you! Great cooperation!

-I will decide the date and time. We will contact you later through Hwayang Sangdan, so please return now.

-All right.
