Chapter 323
Episode 323: Master of the Sky Sword (2)
Yu Jin-san had been practicing only Taegeuk Geon-gunjang in the yard of the guest house for several days.
I didn’t even realize that time was passing by as I became more fascinated by the mysterious martial arts skills that I became more fascinated with the more I practiced them.
It was a time when I was assimilating to the world in a trance and continuing my dance moves.
“Grandpa. When are we going home?”
In the corner, Yoo Seol sat with his chin resting on his face, watching his grandfather.
It’s been like this for a few days, so it’s boring.
Yu Jin-san responded, swinging his arms in a circular motion.
“Where is our home? “I’m in the middle of training, so don’t disturb me and just wait.”
The existing house was completely burned down, so not even the skeleton remained.
Aren’t you now a wandering wanderer?
A distraught Yoo Seol raised his eyebrows and spoke again.
“When are you going to go to Hohyeon?”
To be exact, it would be the Paedo Gate of Hohyeon, the sacred site of Sapa.
For Yoo Seol, who grew up there since she was a baby, it was like a hometown in her heart.
It was also the place where we planned to stay until the day of decisive battle with the Murim Lord came.
Jinsan Yu took a deep breath as if trying to calm his mind.
Even though I was constantly being interrupted by my granddaughter at moments when I felt like I was about to realize something, I didn’t get angry. This was thanks to the practice of Taegeuk Geongonjang, which stabilized my mind and body.
“I have to leave soon. Just do a little more.”
Is it because of the energy of Wudang Mountain, which is full of pottery? Strangely enough, it felt like martial arts training here was achieved quickly.
Whatever the reason, I was at a point where I was gaining momentum in my training, so it was a shame to stop in the middle.
“I’m bored~ You don’t even play with me.”
Yu Jin-san, who continued his movements, spoke secretly to his granddaughter.
“Then come closer.”
Yoo Seol, who didn’t know why, walked towards him step by step.
“me?”
It was when the distance gradually got closer and narrowed to less than a day.
Jin-san Yu’s feet slipped and he approached his granddaughter like lightning.
It was a whirlwind technique, a family skill.
Slurp-!
At the same time, his right arm seemed to be shaking, and he was hitting Yuseol’s solar plexus with his palm.
It was a surprise attack using Taegeuk Gungonjang.
However, Yoo Seol’s movement of rotating his body in the opposite direction was faster.
Paang-!
It was a perfect blow, but his palm only split the air.
“oh. “Grandpa, that was just fine.”
Yu Seol grinned and stretched out his right hand forward. It was a provocation to fight him with one hand.
“You’ll have to be nervous this time.”
Yu Jin-san rushed towards his granddaughter again.
Their hands interlocked and they began to push and pull repeatedly.
Tooung-! Tootak-! Two tatak-!!
Although it looked like they were fighting, the goal was not to defeat each other.
“how is it?”
Yu Seol, the founder of Taegeuk Geongonjang, was helping his grandfather with his training.
Jin-san Yu shouted happily in response to his granddaughter’s question.
“Yes, this is it!”
I couldn’t hide my joy. This is because I began to gain enlightenment in areas that had been blocked for a while.
The increasingly flexible movements began to become more coordinated.
Only after about half an angle had passed did their movements stop at the same time.
Taaa-!
“Look down.”
Yu Jin-san, who had fully relaxed, looked down with a satisfied expression.
At that moment, he was quite surprised.
This is because the ground where they fit together was hollowed out with a huge Taegeuk symbol.
I just moved without thinking as my granddaughter guided me and didn’t notice at all.
“This is…?”
Yu Seol stretched out his index and middle fingers forward and folded them.
“The two of us play Taegeuk Geongonjang together!”
“A passing technique is possible with this martial arts skill?”
“huh. “I’m thinking about it now.”
What is the passing technique? It is literally a martial art performed by two or more people together.
In other words, it is also called Jinbeop, and it is generally performed using weapons such as swords or spears.
But what about a passing technique performed with bare hands? It was my first time visiting Eugene Mountain as well.
It seemed like the granddaughter hadn’t just been sitting around killing time.
“That’s amazing. But why did you think of making a passing liquor?”
Yu Seol said, touching his chin with a proud expression.
“Think about it. Put Grandpa, me, and the bad guy in the middle, and hit them from both front and back. “It’ll be fun, right?”
Eugene San, who had imagined the situation for a moment, shook his head excitedly.
Most likely, the victim would not be able to fall and would end up in a blood clot.
“The one who gets hit will experience a very terrible hell.”
I already felt sorry for who the target would be.
It was when I was taking a moment to catch my breath after a bout of training.
Suddenly, I felt a sign of presence on the other side of the fence.
Joson watched the entrance, wondering who might have come.
A total of three people appeared after a while.
“I guess they were here.”
It was Gwangcheon, the highest elder of the Shaman faction. And the appearance of Jang Mun-in was also seen.
However, the person who made Joson wonder was none other than Gwangneungjin.
His white hair and beard, which had been scattered like those of a wild horse, were neatly trimmed, and his eyes, full of life, were overflowing with clear energy.
His appearance was so mysterious that one could almost say he was a hermit.
Yoo Seol opened her mouth at the sight of his changed appearance.
“Wow! “Are you the old man who followed me around?”
Gwangcheon nodded with a kind smile.
Unlike before, there was no trace of hostility on his face.
“exactly. “I’m glad that I can finally officially introduce my executioner.”
Gwangneung, who had remained silent, slowly approached Yuseol.
Eventually, he stopped in front of the class leader and put his hands together.
“This is the Gwangneung Tomb of the Shaman faction.”
“It’s a conspiracy. And I am also friends with Grandpa Gwangcheon.”
“I heard a lot from the priest. “If you don’t mind being rude, may I take a look at your hands for a moment?”
I want you to show me your hands first. I couldn’t understand the English text, but there was nothing wrong with it.
Yu Seol stretched out his right hand without thinking.
“sleep.”
Compact, small palms without any calluses.
On the outside, he had such beautiful and delicate hands that you couldn’t even imagine that he was a martial arts expert.
“hmm. “I heard I almost died at the hands of these little hands.”
“sorry. “I didn’t do that on purpose either.”
Soon, Gwangneung’s wrinkled hand grasped Yuseol’s hand as if wrapping it around it.
“Then excuse me for a moment.”
For a moment, Yoo Seol’s eyebrows twitched slightly.
This is because he could feel Gwangneung’s energy being transmitted through his hands.
Overwhelm your opponent with overwhelming strength. Or, it was a technique used to test the opponent’s level.
Yu Seol was also not embarrassed and unleashed his inner strength to counter Gwangneung’s true energy.
The tension flowing between the two. And even the surrounding air has changed slightly.
While everyone watched in silence, Gwangcheon sent a message to Yuseol.
– Please understand if I am a little rude. This is a necessary process to confirm the inspector’s prophecy.
I couldn’t understand what he was saying, but I guess he was testing himself.
Yu Seol felt uncomfortable for a moment, but Gwang Cheon’s explanation quickly brought her mood back to normal.
It didn’t take very long.
After a while, Gwangneung let go of Yoo Seol’s hand and glanced to the right.
Then he made eye contact with Jang Moon-in and nodded his head once. Some kind of signal must have been exchanged.
Eventually, Gwangneung took a step back and Jang Mun-in stepped forward.
The words that came out of his mouth were shocking, something that even Jinsan Yu had not expected.
“From now on, our shaman will support Yinkai Daehyeop.”
Didn’t you say before that you would remain neutral?
But now you’re going to go one step further and support it? It was the same as saying that we would share the route in the future.
At that time, Yoo Seol opened her eyes and asked.
“Me?”
“yes. “We, the non-partisan faction, have decided to support Jo Jo’s maintenance.”
I had previously heard an explanation from Jang Moon-in. Jang Sam-bong’s prophecy that the one who draws the sword of the wind and thunder wall will save the world.
Of course, Josun didn’t believe that, but the shaman faction seemed to take it very seriously.
At that time, Yu Jin-san, who was watching from the side, asked Jang Moon-in again.
“Does that mean that the independent faction is giving up being a political faction?”
“If we have to do that, of course we have to accept that as well.”
It was an unbelievable situation.
The Shaman faction was one of the core forces of the Murim Alliance, which had been active at the center of the political faction.
Their change was undoubtedly something that would have a big impact on Gangho.
I wanted to be more certain about Eugene Mountain.
“If this rumor spreads, political faction members will fall into confusion. Also, the shaman’s sword may be pointed towards the political faction.”
Jang Mun-in answered immediately without hesitation.
“If the Yin Kai Association requests it, we will do it. Because that will be good for the world.”
Jinsan Yu was dumbfounded by the sudden change in the attitude of the shaman faction.
I didn’t know what story they had. And I wasn’t even sure if I could trust it yet.
But isn’t there nothing to lose?
There was a moment of silence. Yu Seol joined the conversation and said.
“But we have to leave soon.”
Gwangcheon, who was behind him, asked with a sad expression.
“Ah… you’re leaving already?”
“yes. “I will stop by the market today and then leave for Shaanxi right away.”
“Oh my…”
Gwangcheon was feeling regretful, but he couldn’t help but stop him.
While he was hesitating, Jang Moon-in left a final meaningful statement.
“Wherever you are, we will be there when the time comes. I wish you luck.”
“all right. “Grandpas are doing well too.”
Jang Mun-in of the shaman faction gave a quick look and said goodbye.
But was it a shame to send it off like this? Behind him, Gwangcheon was staring at this place with sad eyes.
Yu Jin-san suppressed laughter at that sight and sent a message to his granddaughter.
– baby. Looks like that old man has something to say to you. Still, I decided to eat with friends, but I have to say hello separately, right?
– okay. I’ll be back soon.
Nodding his head, Yoo Seol went to Gwangcheon’s side and gently extended his left hand.
“grandfather. “Would you like to hold hands with me and take a walk?”
“That’s good too.”
Gwangcheon’s sullen face quickly brightened.
He immediately started walking somewhere, shoulder to shoulder with Yu Seol.
Yu Jin-san, who was watching the scene intently, soon walked to the guest room to pack his luggage.
‘Well, age isn’t important when it comes to friends.’
* * *
Gwangneung and Jang Munin were walking toward Samcheonggwan in unison.
Each Taoist monk he encountered bowed with respect in his eyes, handed him a gun, and then disappeared.
“hmm. A lot has changed in the meantime. “The number of disciples has also increased.”
Jang Mun-in said, moving closer to the right side of Gwangneung.
“Yes, four hundred. “It’s probably two or three times what it was 50 years ago.”
“I guess it’s because you’ve been running the sect well so far. “You’ve worked hard.”
“no. “But why did you decide that way earlier?”
At that moment, Gwangneung’s eyes calmed down.
“I felt the energy of Buddhism from Yinkai. “The most warm and majestic energy shook my heart.”
“If it is the energy of Buddha… Are you saying that Yin Kai has built up his skills through the Shaolin Temple’s spiritual techniques?”
Gwangneung’s head slowly moved horizontally.
“It wasn’t the Shaolin Temple’s spiritual law or anything like that. I have no idea how to explain it. “It was like the energy of Buddha.”
A Taoist who studies the Way can feel the energy of Buddha? It was supposed to be funny, but I couldn’t laugh. This is because Gwangneung’s expression was so serious.
“Then, as Master Gwangcheon said, I guess Eum-gae is not that evil of a person.”
“Of course it will. There must be a reason why the inspector left such a message. “Let’s trust it and go somewhere.”
At that time, Jang Mun-in hesitated for a moment and spoke cautiously.
“But it’s a bit sad to just leave like this.”
“What did you mean?”
“This is the Sky Sword owned by Yin Kai. “If you don’t have it, you won’t be able to use the Taegeuk Heart Sword, right?”
Gwangneung shook his head horizontally with a kind smile.
“Have you forgotten? The desire for it had kept me trapped in my mind for fifty years. The root of all evil is greed. Only by getting rid of it can you become a good person.”
