Chapter 374 – Chapter 75 (4)
‘Calm down. For now, I’ll somehow pull out the time.’
Jin-cheon, who is in the worst situation of losing his soul to Chi-woo, decides to buy time to see what he can do in this space.
“It’s a pretty cumbersome method. Can’t we just let anyone in and steal it?”
“I also told the shaman, but unfortunately, this technique is only possible for descendants who have inherited my blood.”
Jincheon experimented with various things possible because it is an image world, such as trying to exert strength in Chiu’s body while he was talking, or imagining an object coming out of the back of his heel.
Whether she knew this or not, Chiu explained things to Jincheon, whose soul would be destroyed.
“This space is a space where you and my image world merge. Survivors in this place can absorb their opponent’s abilities and memories under their own initiative.”
Then, he looked up and down at Jincheon’s body, which was also reflected in the image world, and sighed.
“Whoa. It will take some time to train that body to be usable. Still, it’s better than an ordinary person who doesn’t know anything.”
Chiu was drawing out a rough estimate for regaining his power, evaluating his body as if he had already taken Jincheon’s body.
‘Not yet. More. I’ll have to wait a bit longer.’
The other side is already fully prepared, but not this side.
Jincheon opened his mouth to mock him on purpose to buy more time.
“Ha! Thousands of years have passed since you died. In the meantime, the world has gained the power of internal energy!”
“Inner air?”
Chiu tilted his head, perhaps hearing the word for the first time.
‘Since it’s the mental world, you don’t need a power supply, right? No, please don’t need it!’
Jincheon purposely punched the air as a showpiece, then fired his fist again as if using martial arts.
Hong Hong Hong!!
‘Do! You can use martial arts in this space!’
Fortunately, in the mental world, it was possible to use martial arts even without dantian.
Jincheon, who deliberately procrastinated, checked the martial arts one by one that he hadn’t used for a long time.
However, Chiu’s expression became strange when he saw that, and he opened his mouth with a slightly mocking face.
“Hmm? It’s the first time I’ve heard the name, so I tried to do something, but isn’t it a fighting spirit?”
“What?”
“Did you pretend to be proud and do something, but did you brag about it with fighting spirit? This body,”
Quaaaaa!
After he stopped talking for a while and gathered his strength, Jincheon’s face hardened without realizing it.
‘What is this aura!?’
It is obviously more violent than the internal air, but it feels horribly refined and clean.
How on earth can such savagery and sophistication contain such opposing forces?
“It possesses fighting spirit, which is higher than fighting power. Even though the emperor himself called it virtuous power.”
“Kuh…!”
Jincheon unknowingly swallowed a groan at the sight of Chiu, who clearly had a higher level of strength than his inner strength.
It was because the self-proclaimed power of self-confidence was so strong that he felt a sense of crisis that his soul would disappear.
“Are the majority of warriors outside using the power of internal energy?”
“…Yes. Not the majority, but all of them.”
As long as he showed that he was using his inner energy, Jincheon, thinking that lying was meaningless, spoke the truth.
“Khhhhh! Haha! Haha!”
Chiu burst out laughing at his answer.
“That’s right! That emperor, he died with this power to himself! He always talked about the happiness of the people and that and other hypocrisy, but after I died, he revealed his true nature!”
Perhaps he had a lot of feelings for his nemesis, the emperor, and he was delighted that the emperor died without leaving any good power.
“If it’s a world where only fighting power is used, it must be very easy to rule this world.”
‘It’s the worst. It’s the worst.’
I can’t believe that internal energy was being used in the name of fighting power thousands of years ago.
And to think that Chiu had that upper level power.
He took enough time to figure out that he could use all of his abilities through this world of images, but the same goes for his opponents.
Jincheon felt a sense of crisis in the worst situation, not just death, but the extinction of the soul.
“I will learn the rest by consuming your soul and absorbing your memories. As I said before, I will use your name in honor of your sacrifice, so you will know it with honor.”
“Kuk!”
As soon as Chi-woo felt that he was going to die, Jin-cheon stanced right away and expressed his resistance not to die gracefully.
“Will you resist? That’s good! Because that level of fighting spirit is worth absorbing your soul!”
Kwaah!
Thinking that there was no need for further conversation, Chi-woo quickly shot towards Jincheon.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
Every time Chi-woo, who has been attached to him in an instant, punches, the sound of the wind not tearing but bursting reverberates.
“Big!”
Jincheon, who was competing head-on with such Chi-woo, desperately evaded in a sense of crisis that his body would explode if he was hit with even one shot.
‘Each fist is aiming at a vital point! It’s literally a road optimized for murder!’
Each fist is filled with the will to kill the opponent.
However, because of that, Jincheon was able to counter Chiu’s attack to some extent.
Quaang!
When I desperately bent my head, Chiu’s fist stabbed me with a slight gap.
“Khaaah!”
Kukkoom!
Jincheon grabbed Chiu’s arm and, using the strength of his extension, delivered an overturn that was so powerful that the floor cracked.
Chiu, who fell to the ground like that, spread out the index and middle fingers of the hand that was being held and released a force called fighting spirit.
Pipit!
After reading the blatant murderous intent, he quickly bent his upper body back to avoid it, but Jincheon’s eye area was torn due to the aftermath of the force, despite avoiding whether it was true that fighting spirit was one level higher than internal air.
‘I’m so far away… !’
Jincheon, who never imagined that he would get hurt from this distance, tried to attack again, but Chiwoo, who stepped on his arm and made his body into a ‘C’ shape, delivered a powerful kick.
Kwak!
“Keuuugh!”
He hurriedly blocked the kick with his arms, but Chiwoo’s footprints remained red on Jincheon’s arms.
‘If I hadn’t given you strength…’
If he had not momentarily strengthened his arm with internal energy, the attack would have completely broken his bones.
“Hmm. It seems that technology has definitely improved. I can’t believe that the difference in ability is compensated by technology.”
Chiu, who twisted his neck left and right while straightening his body, opened his mouth as if he was interested in how Jincheon used various techniques to deal with him, such as flipping over.
As he said, it was thanks to the difference in technology that Jincheon could deal with him despite the difference in ability.
If Chiwoo simply kills the enemy by hitting it with an efficient trajectory, Jincheon uses Chiwoo’s movement, which is all about efficiently attacking with various techniques.
Of course, it was only possible because it was Jincheon Bay’s technology combined with the martial arts of this era and the martial arts of the future, but it was natural that Chiu, who did not know such a fact, was so mistaken.
“But technology is meaningless in front of overwhelming power!”
Kwaaaaa —-!!
“You’re going up from here!?”
The difference between Jincheon and Chiu’s physical ability was clear.
At least Jincheon made up for the lack of skills, but Chiu raised her skills one step further.
“I’ll admit it! I ignored you too much! I’ll give my all from now on!”
Whoo!
“Ugh!?”
Sensing that Chiu’s power was getting stronger, Jincheon watched his movements with all his might, but when Chiu moved with all his might, he momentarily missed his presence.
Quaang!
“Cuck!”
The place where Chiu reappears is the front of Jincheon.
Jincheon felt the pain of his intestines bursting as Chiu’s fist hit his stomach.
‘This place… Silver… Image… Count… Total… !’
However, Jincheon, who knew through all kinds of creative works in modern times that the logic and laws of reality do not work in the world of images, restored his body even in the midst of pain.
The problem was that I couldn’t do anything until the shock I received.
This is because Jincheon and Chiu are currently facing each other in the state of soul, so the blows inflicted on each other are transmitted to the soul.
It was a kind of problem that could not be recovered because of the mental world.
“Aww!”
Even while feeling the pain, Jincheon swung his fist at Chiu’s face with all his power.
Kwaaang!
Chiu didn’t defend or avoid Jincheon’s attack, but deliberately greeted him intact.
Chiu’s head is slightly pushed back, and a drop of his nosebleed bleeds out.
His eyes are like ‘is this all about you?’ Seemed to be laughing.
“I’ve tried resistance with power, so you know. The difference between you and me is obvious.”
Fuck!
“Kahak!”
Qiu hit Jincheon’s abdomen with his knee, jumped over his body soaring into the sky, and lowered his waist with his elbow.
Wood deok!
“Aagh!”
Feeling the pain of breaking his bones around his waist, Jincheon screamed and fell to the ground.
Kwak!
The ground cracked due to the intense impact, but because it was the world of images, the cracked ground healed again.
‘Pond… Win… My… Giral…’
Jincheon was devastated that there was a clear difference in strength between Chiu and himself.
“Sleep in peace, descendant. Your body will enjoy the glory of ruling the world.”
“Kuhhhhh…”
He resisted Chiu’s lines by raising his middle finger, but literally, that was his final resistance.
Chiu began absorbing Jincheon’s memories and abilities under her own initiative as she grabbed Jincheon’s head and lifted it up.
At the same time, Jincheon was able to see Chiu’s memories.
No, to be precise, Jincheon’s soul went through the process of melting in Chiu’s memory.
– Feet! Why! I loved you!!-
The first thing Jincheon saw, melting into Chiu’s memory, was the most intense of Chiu’s memories.
In the first-person memory, a beautiful woman stabbed Chiu with a poisoned blade.
=I’m sorry… Sorry… But… I am the emperor’s daughter… I couldn’t disobey my father’s orders… Sorry… =
-Cool… ! Bar… Foot…-
Through a series of victories in the fight against the emperor, only one last move remains.
In that situation, Chiu, who was attacked by the beauty world through the daughter of the emperor, was poisoned.
In the end, Chiu, who was defeated in the battle with the emperor due to this injury, barely survived and fled, but feeling that his lifespan was short, he gathered his shamans and decided to promise his future.
One thing is clear, the Emperor’s daughter also loved Chiu, and she shed tears, feeling guilty.
‘To the woman… Betrayed… I’m defeated… ?’
In an instant, Jincheon, who had melted into Chiu’s soul, began to see the fighting spirit once again.
“Hmm!?”
Qiu, who was absorbing Jincheon’s soul, suddenly became distorted as the repelling force became stronger.
“Kuaaaaa!”
Tuquaaang!
“Ouch!”
Then, when Jincheon swung his fist, Qiu was so shocked that he vomited blood and bounced on the floor several times.
Stagger!
Chiu, who was getting up again, stumbled momentarily as his legs lost strength from the shock from just before.
“Uh…How…? Suddenly this kind of power…?”
“Haa! Whoo! Whoouk!”
Her soul almost melted, but Jincheon, who barely escaped, breathed heavily and made an angry expression toward Chiu.
“You bastard!”
“!?”
“A weak bastard who was finally betrayed by a woman, who dares to absorb someone! Huh!?”
The reason Jincheon is so angry is because of Chiu’s experience of betrayal.
No, it was exactly the reason why the betrayal happened.
“Bal was the emperor’s daughter! Her betrayal…!”
“So that means you’re weak!”
“What!?”
Chi-woo suddenly felt that his spirit power was not getting stronger, and he was surprised to see Jin-cheon overpowering him.
“If it were me, I would have made that bitch obey so she wouldn’t betray!”
At the same time, Jincheon’s appearance gradually began to change from a human to a beast.
“If it’s a male! You have to tame or subjugate a female so that she can’t do anything stupid! Chiwoo! You may be a strong warrior, but as a male, you’re weak!”
After continuous changes, it has become similar to Werewolf in terms of fantasy novels.
The value system, which is different from the common sense of general human beings, has been changed as the power of the image world has been added.
“I don’t submit to males weaker than me!”
Recognizing her opponent as a male weaker than herself, Jincheon’s soul, awakening the instinct of a ‘male’ deep within her heart, exploded several times stronger than when she first fought.
