Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor
Chapter 137

Episode 137

Not all climaxes are the same, not all climaxes are the same, and not all flower scenes are the same.

Likewise, not all absolute experts are the same.

I knew that the Vampire Demon Emperor was one of the strongest among absolute masters.

Even though Shandong Musica prepared the stage, wasn’t he the person who single-handedly murdered King Gwon?

However, that was all I knew about blood-sucking demons.

I had never experienced hand-to-hand combat before, nor had I ever seen him fight against an absolute expert.

Geogeomsul (馭劍術).

An intangible sword.

These skills are like a symbol of absolute mastery.

In both my past and present lives, I have never heard of a person who can use these two skills at the same time.

A demonic sect leader might be able to perform more tricks than that, but he was basically not a swordsman.

‘You monstrous old man.’

The distance between them was too close.

The central axis of the formation collapsed, and before I even had to worry about Malchus, my body was about to fall into pieces.

The sword, engulfed in shimmering red energy, drew a semicircular trajectory.

I chose the lesser evil to avoid the worst.

As if struggling, he kicked the ground and jumped into the gap between his opponents.

Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

A strong storm swept over the area.

Everything that existed on the vast land was torn to pieces and lost its shape.

“Big!”

There was no time to leisurely look behind.

The price of recklessly narrowing the distance with the opponent was high.

The Vampire Demon swung his claw-like hands and tried to crush my body.

Red steel grows like an animal’s claws on long, thin fingers.

‘You can’t stop everything.’

I defended my head with my sword and raised my self-defense.

In addition, a membrane was formed on the brain base to cover parts of the body.

Wow!

My chest cracked and blood splattered out.

I was out of breath and lost consciousness.

Whoops!

The next moment, Shinhyeong, who had been kicked by the vampire demon, flew through the air.

After rolling on the floor several times, I finally regained my posture and urgently looked around.

‘What is the lineup?’

I was more concerned about whether Jinbeop was safe than my own physical condition.

The surroundings were still shrouded in thick fog.

Fortunately, it seemed that the central axis of the formation had not collapsed.

Although the energy in the area was slightly unstable, I thought it would hold up for a while.

Kaang! Let’s go!

Sparks flew with a sharp metallic sound.

The vampire demon was swinging his sword nervously, swatting away arrows.

When I wondered why he didn’t come after them right away, it seemed like he was being kept in check by Changmyeong Palace.

‘Cheonjamboui has become a rag.’

When I looked at it later, my physical condition was truly a mess.

The entire upper body was soaked in blood.

Looking at his appearance alone, it would not be strange to assume that he had been seriously injured beyond recovery.

‘But it’s not to the point where I can’t move.’

Fortunately, the wound was not as deep as it looked.

I made a samadhi evolution, supported the injured area, and hid myself in the fog.

It was fortunate that I had sprayed Chilhorn poison in advance.

If it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t have had the time to run away from the old monster that was sensitive to the smell of blood and regroup.

‘I’m going crazy.’

I scratched the back of my head as I stared at the old man, who was roaring and sending a lump of energy into the empty air.

I had no idea how to catch such a monster.

‘As expected, it must be brought to an end while the effect of the formation lasts.’

There was no answer to fighting outside.

Even if I decided to run away, I would have been caught before long.

Above all, there was a high possibility that the siege had already been completed by now.

‘You won’t fall for the same trick twice.’

No matter how much of a vampire demon he was, it would have been difficult to protect his body while forming an intangible sword.

As proof, he allowed me a sword a little while ago.

If the same opportunity came again, I would not hesitate to plunge the condensed brain energy into the opponent’s body.

‘For now, let’s keep bumping into each other. If you fight, chances will arise.’

After stopping the bleeding, he immediately rushed to the side of the blood-sucking demon and opened fire with his Wolyeong sword.

Twenty-third herbivorous month (水月).

Countless illusory blades struck the old man’s new form as he turned his head.

*

Quang!

Geomgang and Geomgang collided, causing an explosion of drinking.

I used the recoil to increase the distance between me and the opponent and clicked my tongue saying ‘tsk’.

Is it because even a single act of conversion could not subdue me?

The vampire’s movements became more cautious than before.

He never carried out any unreasonable attacks that did not take care of his own body.

‘There’s no room to dig in.’

It wasn’t that difficult to guess why the owner of that outspoken personality was so passive.

As time passed, the effectiveness of the method was weakening.

I was relieved because it didn’t look like the formation would collapse right away, but it seemed like the central axis had suffered some damage due to the aftereffects of the intangible sword.

‘Time is on the vampire’s side.’

The battle method was the battle method, but the bigger problem was the physical strength that was decreasing by the minute.

Because he had suffered quite a few injuries, his movements were not as free as before.

As my body continued to pour out strength, my internal injuries were getting worse.

As a vampire demon, there would be no reason to take risks and try to increase the odds.

If you just wait patiently, the enemy will destroy itself.

‘I can’t do it. If there is no gap, you have no choice but to force your way in.’

After taking a deep breath, I unleashed my Wolyeonggeom and kicked the ground.

This time, instead of going to the side or behind, they attacked head on.

The twenty-fourth herbivorous month (天月).

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

On the surface, it looked similar to Suwol, the twenty-third herbivore, but its essence was completely different.

All of the hundreds and thousands of swords were real.

It was an herbivore that was rarely used in actual combat because it consumed so much internal power and had low effectiveness.

‘But it’s also an herbivore that can be very effective when used in certain situations.’

For example, if the fight is prolonged like now.

What would happen if you suddenly unleash the Cheonwol (天月) on an opponent who has become accustomed to the herbivorous water moon (水月) due to a long fight?

“Another trick like this… Huh?”

The vampire demon wore self-defense gear all over his body with a puzzled expression.

The confidence that I could ignore the loose roots and only pick and crush the real plants became poison.

If he had wanted to, it would have been possible to get his body out of the range of herbivory.

Taboo, boom!

Countless energy swords struck his entire body.

Even though it was protected with self-defense equipment, it did not mean that shock could not be transmitted to the body.

The vampire’s face was distorted like a vicious beast.

I unleashed the Wolyeonggeom herbivores one after another.

April, the twelfth herbivorous month.

The illusion of a sword fluttering like a dance obscured the vampire’s vision.

‘I won’t be able to maintain my self-defense skills forever.’

All it took was a moment to create a gap.

I moved to hide behind the illusion and focused my brain energy on my fingertips.

Empty! Empty! Empty!

Bangcheoksam provided support fire at the right moment.

The Vampire Demon swung his left hand to swat away the arrows while unexpectedly throwing the sword in his right hand at me.

I tilted my head to avoid the flying sword, and the next moment I bowed sharply.

This was because the sword, which circled once in the air, was aimed at the back of the head.

‘Fighting swordsmanship. ‘If I hadn’t predicted it, I would have suffered.’

As if it were natural, the vampire who retrieved the sword raised both arms high.

A red river covered the surface of the sword.

I didn’t care about that and dug into the gap between the opponent.

By condensing the brain energy of the fingertips to the limit, a black but long needle was created.

Burns spread to the back of my hand due to the use of brain power, which was difficult to handle.

Whoops!

The arrow flew again and struck the vampire’s sword.

The trajectory of the sword falling diagonally was slightly deviated.

Sigh!

A burning pain assaulted my body.

I quickly twisted the new model to avoid it, but it still left a long scar on my side.

The wound itself was not that deep.

The problem was internal energy that had invaded through the affected area.

The destructive energy ran wild through the blood vessels of the body, causing internal injuries.

‘If you miss this opportunity, there will be no next time.’

The moment the tip of the sword touches the ground.

The blood-sucking demon’s movements stopped momentarily.

The self-defense energy that covered his entire body had faded, as if it were about to fall off at any moment.

I gritted my teeth and jabbed the brain’s needle into the other person’s abdomen.

‘Gotcha.’

I was confident of victory.

In this situation, I thought there was no way for the vampire to block my attack.

However, things in the world do not always work out as planned.

Sigh!

A dagger rose from the ground and pierced my left hand.

“Wow!”

The vampire spewed out dark red blood and took a step back.

It seemed like he suffered quite a few internal injuries, but unfortunately, the results did not meet expectations.

Due to the shock to my hand at the last moment, I was unable to put enough force into my attack.

‘Damn swordsmanship.’

I couldn’t tell when the dagger was buried in the ground.

I collapsed helplessly on the spot, clutching the affected area.

Because of the severe injury, I had no strength in my body.

“You’re giving me this much trouble.”

The vampire muttered, spitting spit mixed with blood and phlegm on the floor.

He drew a creepy smile on his lips and pointed his sword at me.

“It was a pretty good operation, but there’s nothing I can do about it.”

An arrow flew from the side and struck his body.

However, the vampire demon did not even react to that and raised his sword high.

“Perhaps I will end the life of the greatest genius in martial arts history.”

With difficulty, I lifted my head and stared at the sword falling on my head.

The passage of time suddenly slowed down.

Numerous thoughts appeared in my head and then disappeared repeatedly.

A burst of laughter came out.

I had a similar experience in a past life.

I never thought I would see the magic light twice in my life.

‘shit. Like this……?’

I was swearing in my mind and the next moment, my eyes were wide open.

In a world that has slowed down, there was a man in black who was moving alone as if accelerating.

Whoops!

The moment the man’s hand, stained with black light, collided with the red river, an enormous wave engulfed the entire area.

The new type of bloodsucking demon was pushed backwards, leaving a long mark.

He shouted, glaring at the intruder with annoyed eyes.

“What a guy!”

“Is this a blood-sucking demon?”

“I guess you asked who it was?”

“Judging by the reaction, it seems to be correct.”

The man in black nodded with a satisfied expression.

A feeling of anticipation arose in an instant.

I muttered to myself as I examined the man’s appearance beyond my blurred vision.

‘Could it be that Dokgo Woojin has arrived in Gwiju?’

Even with my dulled senses, I could clearly tell.

The man in front of me is not Dokgo Woojin.

The size, voice, and appearance.

Nothing matched.

‘Who is it?’
