Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor
Chapter 451

Episode 451

The demon ship was pushed away, leaving long marks on the ground.

The surrounding warriors looked at the source of the noise with surprised expressions.

Simaun looked back with a bewildered expression and his eyes widened.

The image of a young man breathing heavily, wiping the sweat from the back of his neck, came into view.

“Dragon King!”

“Have we finally arrived!”

The middle school students who recognized the young man’s identity breathed a sigh of relief.

There were also people who cheered.

Namgung Baek, the person who actually sent the letter to Haenam Island, rubbed his eyes with an expression of disbelief.

‘Nonsense.’

How long has it been since I sent Jeonseo-gu flying?

I had no idea how on earth we got to Gwiju so quickly.

“…You came earlier than I expected.”

“I felt like I had to hurry, so I ran hard.”

“Thank you for saving me.”

Sima Yun hung up the iron wire with a bitter look on his face.

If possible, I wanted to greet Ma Seon by lifting her head, but on the contrary, I ended up receiving help.

If Yeonsun had not arrived in time, he would have most likely been seriously injured.

“Thank you for your hard work. Please rest for a while. “I’ll come back after finishing it.”

“Are you okay?”

“What do you mean?”

“You look tired…”

“Don’t worry. “It’s not like you can’t suppress even a dying old man.”

Yeonsoon speaks confidently.

Sima Yun felt a little uneasy at that sight.

I could recognize it at a glance.

In order to arrive at Gwiju in time, Yeonsun went overboard.

‘For a master who has reached the absolute heights, and who has mastered the White Thunder Godkung (白雷神功) and has a body that is on a different level from that of an ordinary martial artist, to look so exhausted…

‘ It means overworking.

Even though Ma Seon’s condition was not normal, he could not be underestimated as he had temporarily regained his skills by taking the elixir.

“…….”

Did he read Simaun’s thoughts through his eyes?

Yeonsun, with a smile on his face, reassured him.

“I know more about Maseon than Sohyeop. “There will be nothing that the small cooperatives think of.”

“Be careful.”

Yeonsun, who placed his hand on the sword and stepped forward, confronted Ma Seon at a distance of three feet.

Maseon looked around with a frustrated expression, opened her eyes fiercely, and said.

“Now that things are like this, I guess I’ll have to take you with me as a companion. “So that you don’t get bored on the way.”

“I’m sorry, but I’m a bit young to go with you.”

“In the first place, there is no order in which to go.”

“And if you’re going to save a friend, you should choose someone who can be a companion. “What is a drug addict? A drug addict.”

“…….”

Ma Seon let out a laugh.

It’s been quite a while since I received such a low-level provocation.

He slightly bent his upper body and clenched his right hand tightly.

The swirling magical energy was condensed into one point and transformed into the shape of sharp thorns.

Absolutely! Quick!

As if waiting, the small cloud formed five thunder spheres.

The middle schoolers, who expected a collision to occur, slowly took a step back and widened the distance between the two people.

Quaaaang!

The fight started with heavy drinking.

The energy wave that arose around the two absolute masters spread out in concentric circles.

* * *

‘indeed.’

I was blown away by the shock and did a somersault to correct my posture.

The force that the demon ship gave off was truly terrifying.

He did not appear to be a person who was completely trapped in the trap of heaven and had exhausted most of his stamina and endurance.

‘I guess I get it roughly.’

A fishy smell stung my nose.

Since the situation was not going well, it seemed like he took an elixir to replenish his lost energy.

Of course, an ordinary warrior could not immediately recover his strength during battle even if he took the same elixir.

On the contrary, you will lose your life because you will not be able to withstand the unrefined energy that does not harmonize with your inner energy flowing through your entire body.

This was possible because Ma Seon had improved her constitution over a long period of time.

‘No matter how evil it is, the price of doing something unreasonable will not be small.’

He went through numerous trials and errors to complete the path he pursued as a warrior.

Improving the mind, making body modification elixirs, etc.

I heard that the number of believers who became victims of his experiments was quite large.

‘Each attack is heavy.’

With a light punch, the ground turned over and the air shook.

It was reminiscent of the overwhelming inaction shown by the religious leader in the past.

But that was all.

‘You’d think it would be advantageous. This person is very tired from running a long way without rest, and he can use the power of drugs to exert strength beyond his limit.’

It wasn’t a particularly wrong decision.

If you look at the situational advantages and disadvantages, it is true that Maseon has the upper hand.

However, that was when the fundamental difference in skill was not taken into consideration.

I am a different person now than when I faced Lord Ma in Banghyeon.

Through consistent training, I have made up for many of my shortcomings.

Even though it is just that, his overall skills have improved to an incomparable level.

Quang!

The needle of the thunderbolt that shot out hit the side of the demon ship.

The demonic spirit, which blocked the attack with a membrane created by condensing the overflowing demonic energy, closed the gap in the blink of an eye and extended its fist.

A blow that passes by just in the nick of time.

Even though he was protected by strong self-defense equipment, the nape of his neck was red and swollen due to wind pressure.

‘surely.’

The power of the attack was at a level that surpassed that of the Hundred-Faced Shinigami, who is said to be the strongest of the Eight Demon Lords.

It’s because other parts are lacking.

The third herbivorous full moon.

The sword’s trajectory drew a large circle.

A blow that accurately pierced the breathing gap.

The new form of the Demon Ship was completely pushed back by an attack that did not even contain strong energy.

“Watch your back. “There are many people waiting for an opportunity.”

“…!”

The fifth herbivorous half moon.

The sword that soared in a gentle curve suddenly fell down.

Did he feel a sense of crisis at the sight of unmanned people slowly approaching from behind?

Instead of dodging, Ma Seon stopped in place and tried to receive the attack by raising both hands.

Sigh!

At that time, the sword that left my hand changed its trajectory arbitrarily and stabbed the lower body of the devil.

Application of fish sword techniques.

The feeling of the blade digging into my skin made me feel anxious.

He quickly exploded his demonic energy, pushed Geoggeol away, and threw himself to the side.

There was confusion in his eyes as he looked down at the affected area.

‘You must have realized it by now.’

The injury itself wasn’t that serious.

As for whether it would interfere with movement, it didn’t.

But regardless, the psychological shock would have been great.

Because we suffered losses twice during the short exchange of defense.

‘It was not a secret attack or a hidden trick.’

‘He was simply defeated by me in a battle of reading.’

There was no way that someone as skilled as a magician would not have figured out what that meant.

‘Now how are we going to get out?’

* * *

The training I have done so far has not been anything grand.

In order to improve my fundamental skills, I just filled in my shortcomings and meticulously looked back on the path I had taken.

I have become somewhat accustomed to the use of swordsmanship.

The time required to implement the intended form has been reduced.

I was able to manage my energy more precisely.

By persistently delving into each of the twenty-four basic principles of Wolyeonggeom, my understanding and application ability increased.

[If I can only use it in such a monotonous way, it would be better not to practice swordsmanship.]

I was not the person of the past, who had been scolded by the Demon Cultist for not being able to properly control my skills.

There’s still a long way to go before I can use the expression ‘full maturity’, but at least I can use what I have properly.

I also became somewhat familiar with the complex use of each skill.

‘Even if they reach the same absolute state, the starting point for someone who has mastered the White Thunder Godkong is different from that of other martial artists.’

Maybe it was half a year ago.

For me now, the demon ship, which was classified as middle to lower among the eight great demon armies, was no match for me.

‘Of course, if the Demon Ship had been in perfect condition, it would not have been able to gain the upper hand so easily.’

His current condition was somewhat similar to mine, who had operated a bomb attack.

The power of the attack increased, but the variety and sophistication decreased.

Since the number of cards that could be used was limited, it was natural that one would be at a disadvantage in a water fight.

“Keuuu!”

An animal-like moan escaped from Maseon’s lips.

Time was not on his side.

Even if one had improved one’s constitution over a long period of time, it would have been a huge burden to withstand the energy of the elixir on one’s own without using luck techniques.

He would like to somehow turn the fight into a short-term decisive battle.

‘I also don’t have the energy. The conditions are the same.’

The end would come soon.

It will soon be decided who will be the last one standing.

* * *

“Huh.”

“Was the Dragon King’s skill like this?”

Those who were watching the battle between Yeonsun and Ma Seon looked surprised.

Even those whose level was not that high could recognize it at a glance.

Who has more leeway?

Which side continues the one-sided fight with the upper hand?

“indeed. “It is often said that it is time for the system of the two nobles, the three ghosts, and the five kings to change.”

“It’s scary.”

“No matter what, I never thought they would unilaterally push the Eight Great Demon Army.”

Hyeokjeokdo, who was taking care of the injured among the martial arts people who were shouting in surprise, swallowed dry saliva.

Simply saying that we had the upper hand was not enough.

Did you say that you only see what you know?

The martial principles reflected in Yeonsun’s movements were not enough to describe them as amazing.

‘…Now that I think about it, this is my first time witnessing the battle of the Dragon King who reached absolute heights.’

I couldn’t believe it even more because I had directly confronted Yeonsun in the past.

That he has grown so much in such a short period of time.

It was a rare sight that could not be seen even if one paid money.

In order to capture the view without missing a single moment, I focused my energy on my eyes, risking internal injuries.

I knew it intuitively.

By watching this fight, you will grow to another level.

thud! Kukukuk!

There was an explosion and a cloud of dust rose.

There were quite a few warriors caught up in the aftermath, but everyone stayed put and watched the fight between the two absolute masters until the end.

Crump!

The end has finally arrived.

Yeonsun’s left fist dug deep into Ma Seon’s chest.
