Chapter 199: Wudang Sect’s Taoist Myung Jin (2)

Shh

Taoist Myung Jin stretched out his arm and drew a semicircle with the sword. The air gently moved like it was being dragged around, but it was so graceful to the eyes like it was an illusion.

Swish!

The moment when the sun began to set, one could see something gathering around the blade of the sword. It was like fireflies had surrounded it.

Maybe this got him distracted. It was just two breaths after which he stabbed toward Seol-Hwi.

Chiiik—ciik

Unknowingly, the created sword energy was aimed at him.

“…!”

<Incredible Airflow is being used.>

Obviously, Seol-Hwi had prepared himself and his reaction was not too late.

Even so, Seol-Hwi was in a situation that was quite dangerous. Myung Jin’s sword reached the chest of Seol-Hwi and was now just one inch away.

“Ahem!”

He had to push it away with all his might, but instead of being pushed back, the sword energy pushed deeper.

Seol-Hwi made a quick decision. It was impossible to push it back, so he had to choose a direction to dodge.

His choice was below.

Kwang!

The sword energy which penetrated the thigh and the floor made a huge exploding sound as it went deeper.

“D-did you change the path?”

Myung Jin’s eyes widened.

What the guy just used was sword energy with the essence of Taiji Wisdom Sword. It was something which went beyond normal sword techniques.

The sword energy which should pierce through the opponent even when defended against was impossible to block.

“Huh…”

Myung Jin was speechless. This was incredibly hard to believe despite seeing it.

Why doesn’t it appear?

Meanwhile Seol-Hwi’s head felt messed up. He was seriously injured, but he did not give his injuries a second thought.

Maybe if the opponent’s techniques went through, he would not be able to learn the sword anymore. He hoped to learn it, but what had transpired was completely different.

Seol-Hwi chose to delay healing his wounds and sealed the blood points.

Could it be that the guy cheated?

Doubt began to rise up,bBut the opponent was someone who had no reason to cheat him.

It was because just one sword attack had come at him that would be impossible to defend against at the level of Peak Demon, and he could not stop it unless he used a special technique.

Then… am I missing something?

It was said that the body being able to handle the sword arose from the Taiji concept. And Seol-Hwi thought that the Taiji Wisdom Sword was something which grew from the Taiji Sword, so he learned the Taiji Sword first.

But looking at this, it seemed like that would not work.

“You. You seem to be able to do something.”

Myung Jin’s face was cold.

The man performed the best martial arts he could think of. Even so, seeing that the guy did not die, it meant that he was not an ordinary warrior.

Come to think of it, it was absurd for a person who seemed like a wanderer in the Sleeping Dragon Forces to try and find out what the Taiji Wisdom Sword was.

Perhaps the opponent was someone who was hiding the true extent of his skills.

“Well, hurry up and give me the pill.”

“I cannot give it to you now.”

“What? You mean to say you won’t keep your promise?”

When Myung Jin asked, Seol-Hwi shook his head.

“Isn’t it you who didn’t keep your promise? I definitely asked for a way to see the sword. However, you just used it at a high level where I couldn’t even recognize what you did.”

“So? What should I do if you are that weak? You want me to take responsibility for your shortcomings?”

“If it was a simple hit, I would have agreed. But elder, weren’t you aiming to take my life with it?”

Shh

Seol-Hwi pointed to the thigh, which was blood stained despite the bleeding having stopped. And he looked at Myung Jin.

“Let me ask you once. Can a disciple of the Wudang Sect, having been struck by an elder of the sect, understand the essence of the Taiji Wisdom Sword right away?”

“…”

Myung Jin was silent.

Actually what he just did a second back was too much. Even if the opponent was a disciple of Wudang, they would die. It made no sense for one to realize the essence of the sword when the movement was as such.

“So. What do you mean?”

“For me to understand why you tried to take my life just for a greedy thought… well, if this is how it is going to be then I should pay you back.”

Shhh

Seol-Hwi removed the sword he was holding, revealing his chest and stomach.

“What is needed to learn the Taiji Wisdom Sword, tell me about it.”

“What are you saying… you are someone who doesn’t belong to the sect. Who is this man who doesn’t understand the principles?”

Myung Jin refused it.

As I thought.

This gave surety to Seol-Hwi. The additional conditions to learn the Taiji Wisdom Sword are present.

“Didn’t you walk out of the sect gate though? And didn’t you try to kill another person who is weaker than you, right away?”

“…”

“No matter how insignificant my life might seem to everyone else, I am one who breathes. How can a person who goes after the teachings of the tao undervalue life? Didn’t you just ask me to not hold you for any mistakes a second back? Then you must understand what I am saying. How can an elder not do it properly?”

“…You man, you really want to die? Why are you this obsessed with dying?”

Myung Jin asked as if it was odd.

Like he pointed out, he aimed to kill Seol-Hwi, because he did not want to regret showing the sword.

But the opponent was not begging him. Actually, the opponent looked like he would not even beg if death came. He wanted to die, so rather than just death, it had to be a death after seeing the true essence of the Taiji Sword.

“Whoever holds the sword, no matter their origin, would want to see the sword of Wudang. If I were to die here, I would go only after seeing it before I die. That is all.”

“Ha. For real…”

Myung Jin smiled.

At most, it was absurd for someone to pretend to be a third class warrior Kangho. Moreover, it was all just to see the Taiji Wisdom Sword? All before death? It can be done, right?

The Taiji Wisdom Sword was known to be something which came with long hours of training and enlightenment. And that is why the sect considered it prestigious, because it made sure to do that.

“If I let you know it, you will understand it, how dare… No, no.”

Myung Jin, who was about to yell back at Seol-Hwi, stopped.

This is better though.

This made his heart feel relieved. Just now, he did his best to throw in a single attack to kill him, but the guy did not die.

That was all he had to do was get the pill back, but that did not happen. And the opponent’s level was unknown.

Judging from the skills, it seemed like the guy would be able to counter. However, if they decided to kill him after the pill was handed over, fearing there would be trouble which would flare up later… this is what any taoist would do

So his mind felt a bit of a mess.

Was the human being desperate to die?

“Fine. I will teach you. There is something you need to know before moving to the Taiji Wisdom Sword.”

The essence of the Taiji Wisdom Sword according to Myung Jin—

It was based on the knowledge which was based on the several martial arts of Taiji. Among them was one which everyone had to master, which was this, the Yin Yang Divine Arts.

To move down the path of the Tao, which was originally one, to two, according to the Taiji, and using the power within the body to unleash the technique, one must understand the Millions of Possibilities and the Ground.

The Millions of Possibilities is the ten thousand ways of the Taiji Sword… in the end, it should be trained to a state of flawlessness where no mistake in movement would happen.

The Ground is how the technique is utilized. In order for the technique to start and end, the heart needs to be divided into two.

It is only when the body and mind can operate it as such can one learn the essence of the Taiji Wisdom Sword.

“Get it?”

After the little explanation which was clear, Myung Jin asked.

At first he was not sure about teaching it to an outsider, but the guy was willing to die for this, so he did not care much. It was like he was teaching a disciple, he said it all out loud.

“…”

Seol-Hwi, who heard the question, tied his hair.

He had heard what this was, the Millions of Possibilities and the Ground to execute it, it felt strange.

He touched the technique which is the pride of Wudang, and it seemed like it would take a long time for him to learn it.

But the other side was not willing to give him time.

“With this, I kept the promise. So now let me take it. Hah!”

The moment he thought, he saw the guy rush over to him.

Death…

The movement of the opponent was ridiculously quick.

Was that why?

Chak!

As Seol-Hwi’s body was almost cut down, he changed.

“As I thought, you were up to this.”

Myung Jin did not care what Seol-Hwi said. Rather this only riled him up.

From then, the movement of his continued.

Sasasasak

In an instant, four illusions were cut.

And Seol-Hwi was back to his original body, scared.

Fuck, how do I stop this…

This was not a stage of martial arts he could fight against. The blade which could cut down the body at a touch, even if the guy used water it seemed like the force would not decrease.

“Uha.”

Myung Jin put some distance between them right then and ran in random directions, but Seol-Hwi did not retreat.

Right now he had to endure this for the sake of Taiji Wisdom Sword, but he would die, he knew he would. So he held the sword.

Kang! Kaang!

The moment the sword was blocked, his entire body could feel the shock.

“You, insane old man… Euk!”

As Seol-Hwi bounced back, the guy was right in front of him.

This guy was in a different insane circle than Goo Jong-myung.

Was he hiding his skills back then?

Myung Jong who was watching these two was confused. Myung Jin was the best in the Wudang Sect. How long can one stand against him?

Being able to dodge his attacks was already a shock, and now the attack was being blocked despite being difficult to see with the naked eye?

Just who is that man?

Myung Jin would surely kill the guy and get that pill, but the guy was rather calm from the start.

He had never expected such a person to come from a filthy group such as the Forces of Evil.

But it will not be long.

There will be no more unknowns now. Even now, Myung Jin is his great sahyung, and he was not using his full strength.

With time, he will start to tap into his true power. And before that, this guy will certainly fall.

Kang! Kang!

Pung! Thud!

“AHH! Fuck!”

Seol-Hwi could not handle this and cursed. He pretended to be polite because he was dealing with a taoist, but he could not hold back the words any longer.

“Ha.”

The but attack did not stop, and it drove him insane.

<Sweet Nectar Water is being used.>

Several sword clashes happened, and he was recovering his stamina by using the Golden Belt.

But rather than enduring, it turned into a consuming form, like dying and coming back.

“Die! Die!”

Myung Jin was losing it, he was now just moving to kill Seol-Hwi.

“Kuak!”

Then, maybe let the guy stab the thigh and then stop him.

“Now, let’s get ready to kill you.”

Myung Jin’s eyes looked right at him and Seol-Hwi hurriedly brought up the promise.

“Elder, the Yin Yang Divine Arts…”

“What is it?”

This fucking man.

Seeing how he asked what the martial arts was, it meant he was sure to kill.

<Martial Supreme Peak Wind God is being used.>

“…!?”

Was it because he was holding himself back too much? Or was it because he did not take the attacks of Seol-Hwi seriously?

Myung Jin tried to avoid the power of Seol-Hwi, but it felt impossible.

Dd!

Lightning quickly came at him and electrocuted him, followed by a storm in black.

“I will kill you. I will.”

<Martial Supreme Peak Wind God is being used.> <Martial Supreme Peak Wind God is being used.>

Seol-Hwi did not repeat the mistake of the past. In the past, when the opponent was hit once with this technique, there was an opening which could be used.

Where is it?

“Haaa!”

Even before the black storm vanished, Seol-Hwi approached him and drew the sword.

<Heavenly Detention Ice Fire Storm is being used.>

Dudud!

The air movement which turned into the storm changed into pure white ice, and it soon exploded as flame touched it.

The explosion of ice and heat made black clouds of smoke form.

“Not yet!”

Seol-Hwi, looking at the slowly disappearing black storm, was ready to fight again.

<Annihilation of All Things is being used.>

It was just for a second. Violet flames moved into this storm and strange roars could be heard.

Kwaaak!

The pressure and force was so strong that the ice around began to fall away.

“Huk. Huk…”

Seol-Hwi was out of breath, but he continued to watch what was happening. He had a feeling.

Even if the man was alive, he must have at least done some form of damage.

If he was lucky, he might have beaten the greatest in the Wudang sect. Since he had used all the best skills he had, even if the opponent is a Supreme Master…

“Ha, fuck.”

However, the smoke cleared, making Seol-Hwi’s face darken.

The guy who should be on the ground panting or maybe dying was standing there calmly.

“To see a guy who would tear down the heavens… you, are the man of the Demonic Sect.”

Myung Jin was alive.

Far from fatal wounds, there was only a small cut. Still, there was something comforting.

<You have learned Yin Yang Divine Arts.> <Understood the Taiji Wisdom Sword.>

One of the techniques.

Come to think of it, it was not like he had to only defend to learn it. In the repeated deadly attacks, he must have used the Yin Yang Divine Arts, and as a result, he gained something nice.

“Excuse me…”

Is this why?

Seol-Hwi wanted to know.

Now that he got what wanted, he wanted to disappear.

“Shall we stop fighting?”

Of course, he was not trying to persuade him.

“Good game.”

Because he ran away.
