Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Episode 389

‘It was said in an interesting way.’

It was undeniable that this was a crisis situation.

Two absolute experts who have refined the recommended methods to the limit.

Originally, I would have avoided the situation without any hesitation.

Even if you can’t win, you can still fight.

However, as the Bungcheon Demon Emperor said, there was no way to back out now.

Whether it was porridge or rice, I had to see it to the end.

‘I guess I should say it’s fortunate. Before the Cheonak Army invades, give the Bungcheon Demon Emperor a blow.’

Of course, the power gap could not be reversed as Bungcheon Demon Emperor’s internal injuries deepened.

I was also not in perfect physical condition.

He suffered some internal injuries while fighting with the Baek-faced Reaper inside the Seven Prisons, and he overexerted himself considerably in the previous battle.

‘I didn’t suffer any serious injuries that would interfere with my movements.’

It was clear that the conditions were disadvantageous compared to Cheonak-gun, which was in perfect condition.

Coo!

The air was shaken by the fists thrown by the two absolute masters at a time lag.

The wind that spread out in a straight line penetrated deeply into the ground.

I twisted my upper body to avoid the attack, then snapped my fingers and kicked the ground.

bang! Quack!

The moment the sphere of thunder energy exploded in front of the Heavenly Demon Emperor and the Heavenly Demon Emperor, they let go of their swords.

The sword flew with the sound of a wave and struck Cheonakgun.

The fists of the Bungcheon Demon Emperor and I struck at the same time.

The demons who were circling around, waiting for an opportunity, were unable to withstand the shock wave and were swept away.

“You seem impatient.”

The power struggle did not last long.

Cheonakgun sneered and struck down his sword, pouring out fire energy towards my head.

Chi-ik!

It was before I could correct my posture, so I had no choice but to protect myself with self-defense techniques.

The scorched hem of his clothes quickly turned black.

‘also. ‘Is it not possible to hold Cheonakgun even for a moment with inexperienced swordsmanship?’

The geoggeol, which circled widely in the air, returned to my hand as if drawn by a magnet.

I used the repulsion force to raise the new model and unleashed the Wolyeonggeom attack.

Twenty-third herbivorous month (水月).

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

Cheonakgun and Bungcheon Demon Emperor jumped into the waves of illusion and broke through.

In an instant, the distance between them narrowed.

‘That’s right.’

Although the latter part was somewhat herbivorous, it was not possible to tie down the movements of the two absolute masters for even a moment.

This result was not unexpected.

On the contrary, because I was confident, I overdid it and did a herbivorous move that resulted in a large recoil.

To get the two people inside the gap.

Sigh!

The sound of the fishing line being released rang loudly.

Three arrows flew secretly and struck the side of the Bungcheon Demon Emperor.

Swordsmen and strong energy poured in from all directions and attacked the two demons.

‘It’s definitely a situation where there’s no answer on your own.’

So, I wasn’t planning on foolishly struggling alone.

In large-scale battles, shouldn’t we adopt appropriate strategies?

I was not foolish enough to not prepare even though I clearly knew that the enemy had more masters than our troops.

“Ahh!”

“What are these guys!”

The demons who supported Cheonakgun and Bungcheon Demon Emperor were swept away like fallen leaves in a cold wind.

The gathered elites of the interception unit exchanged glances with each other and settled into their respective positions.

[If the Cheonak Army appears on the battlefield, please join them immediately. I’ll give you a signal to make it easier for you to recognize it.]

It wasn’t for no reason that it jumped into the air and performed a spectacular herbivory.

The number of absolute experts may be behind, but the interception team is far ahead in the number of mid-level strong players.

Hwaseong Sword (火性刀) Yanyun Sword (煙雲劍) Changming Palace (彰明弓) Changjiang Johyeop (長江釣俠).

There were only four 100-year-old masters who came to support.

In addition, there were many strong people who were equivalent to a hundred great masters.

If Wu Ga-jin had been there, he could have gone beyond just holding on and achieved victory, but he was currently assigned to the infiltration team and had entered the ruins.

In order to suppress the Sosalma Army (笑殺魔君), which was in the process of attacking the ruins under the order of the Demon Cultist, that much power had to be invested.

‘Meng Kyung… was he stranded by the Demonic Cult’s master?’

I glanced in the direction of Meng-gyeong and narrowed my eyes.

A singer of Hwagyeong who swings his abnormally long arms without hesitation.

It was a face I had seen several times in my past life.

Weird thing.

He was the strongest among the Demonic Cults, excluding the Eight Demon Lords.

As can be seen from the title, his spear skills were truly bizarre.

Even though he already had a body that was clearly different from others, he trained in special martial arts and his joints were bent abnormally.

All of the herbivores he displayed were anomalous, so it was bound to be difficult to deal with them.

‘On the other hand, Meng Gyeong rarely fought actual battles while hiding in Sangsal Gate. In his own words, he said his senses were not what they used to be.’

I thought he might die if I were not careful.

Immediately, he gave instructions to Dojang Cheonwoo and Daerang Hwa by eumseon.

Go and assist Meng Jing.

“dare!”

The Bungcheon Demon Emperor caught the flying arrow and broke it with a strong grip.

In my heart, I wanted to catch and beat up the obstructionists.

But you can’t simply turn your back on me.

“Sigh!”

The first Honyo Dojang of the Shaman Seven Swords, who joined in late, brought down the sword engulfed in strong energy in a straight line.

Cheonakgun, who hit it with a laughable expression, materialized a membrane of fire and covered his side.

The memorization thrown out by the poisonous people was blocked by a membrane and fell to the ground.

‘Each person does not have the skills to deal with an absolute expert. However, if you succeed in conjunction with me, the story will be different.’

With this level of power, even if there were two absolute experts, it would be enough to deal with them.

Ku-kwa-kwa-kwaang!

The ball of thunder energy exploded behind the Bungcheon Demon Emperor’s back.

“Big.”

The Bungcheon Demon Emperor took advantage of the impact and made a large leap, raining down blows at random towards the ground.

A technique favored by King Gwon of the Hwangbo family.

A torrential downpour hit the ground roughly.

The soldiers of the interception team, who each blocked the attack in their own way, let out a faint groan.

Some had blood flowing from the corners of their mouths as if they had suffered internal injuries.

“Did you think a few flies could do anything to us?”

Cheonak pushed away the fishing line with a light wave of his hand and closed the gap between him and me in the blink of an eye.

I answered in a humorous voice as I applied brain energy to the surface of the sword.

“Isn’t it quite threatening to be a fly? “If you let your guard down, you might allow an unexpected blow.”

“That’s funny.”

Every time the burning palm and the sword engulfed in white light collided, there was an explosion of noise.

When they faced each other before, there was no time to gauge Cheonakgun’s level due to the side effects of the bombing magic attack.

When I tried my hand again like this, I was able to see clearly.

That he has definitely become stronger than in his previous life.

It is said that he defeated a ghost by himself, and he was capable of doing so.

It could be said to be an example of how the twists of history do not always work to my advantage.

“Do you know what? “My master desperately wants that head.”

“……?”

Lord Cheonak frowned slightly.

A face suddenly asked what that meant.

I chuckled and added an afterthought.

“You better be careful. “You are a very scary person.”

* * *

The fierce battle continued for more than half a day.

There were numerous casualties.

The soldiers of the interception unit also suffered damage equal to the number of demon cultists defeated.

Blood flowed like a river, and a life barely exceeding three digits passed away.

Cough!

As I was engaged in a fierce battle with two absolute masters, I could not hold back the rising nausea and vomited blood.

Is it because I overworked myself for a long time?

Slowly, the limit began to come.

In order for the elites of the interception unit to exert themselves against the Cheonak Army and the Pungcheon Demon Emperor, there was one thing that had to be assumed.

I have to restrain the movements of the two absolute masters so that they cannot turn their attention elsewhere.

Of course, the burden I had to bear was bound to be that great.

“Whoa.”

My vision instantly spun.

I took a deep breath and straightened my posture.

The good news was that the absolute masters of the Demonic Cult were far from being okay.

Emperor Bungcheon’s internal injuries, which were already severe, became even deeper, and the Cheonak army also suffered big and small injuries due to the persistent checks.

“I’m getting bored.”

Lord Cheonak muttered in a low voice.

For a moment, a red glow appeared in his eyes and then disappeared.

thud!

As he stepped on the ground, the ground cracked and the heat rose up.

The amplified energy spread out and encroached on the surroundings.

‘Is there still that much room left?’

I clicked my tongue inwardly.

I was trying to take my time by fighting as defensively as possible, but now it seemed like even that would be difficult.

In some ways, this may have been expected.

By working together with the elites of the interception unit, we managed to achieve balance, but we were unable to secure victory due to the lack of a decisive blow.

The result was this.

Of the three absolute masters, Cheonakgun, who had the least strength intact, was the one who had the last laugh.

‘I think I’ve gained enough time like this.’

It was a time when I strengthened my resolve and adjusted my sword.

I felt a powerful figure approaching me at an incredible speed.

An old man wearing simple long clothes passed by in an instant and was attacked by Cheonakgun.

bang!

The two crossed long swords collided with the burning palms, creating a heavy collision sound.

“I guess I’m a little late.”

“Couldn’t you have come a little sooner if possible?”

White hair neatly tied up.

A grim face.

A long sword held in each hand.

Zhou Hwabaek, the Murim lord of the time, finally arrived at the battlefield.

‘It’s worth it to endure the hard work.’

By the time we reached the border between Bohwa-hyeon and Banghyeon.

Zhuge Hye had given me advice in advance.

[Could you please look behind me for a moment?]

[……?]

At that time, when I turned my head, what was reflected in my field of vision was smoke rising high into the sky.

Zhuge Dynasty had again sent some kind of signal with a beacon fire.

[What does that mean?]

[Apparently, Meng sent a messenger to Zhuge Dynasty.]

[Jeonseogu?]

[The Lord of Meng will arrive at the battlefield within a few days.]

[…… !]

Zhuge Huan, the general of the Meng Dynasty, opposed Zhuge Hye joining the reinforcements and going to Hubei.

It wasn’t because I was worried about her safety.

It wasn’t that she was worried that she might get caught up in political strife when she returned to her family.

Zhuge Huan secretly hoped that she would serve as an assistant to the lord who was heading to Hubei.

In fact, Zhuge Hye couldn’t wait until then and came to see me.

‘With this, all cards are prepared.’

I smiled, showing my teeth.

The missing pieces were filled.

The final piece to break the balance.
