Chapter 454 – King Yan’s Disciple 4 (31)
The reason why I thought it was better to aim for the portal rather than defeating King Nan was because the amount of resistance I could have increased as my combat power increased.
I again made a black and white twin wheel and then flew a white wheel on my back.
Then, I gathered all my remaining energy and flew towards the north.
Shuwaaaaa!!!
As I wrapped myself in shadow armor to protect myself from air resistance and accelerated with all my might, Shahemoth shouted at me.
(Master? Are you planning to run away from the enemy like this?!)
(I want to give priority to destroying the dimensional door connected to the Sword King. Because once the night passes, it is impossible to recover mana through Yeonyeong Shinkong.)
(Something seems to be losing its shape… If I am behaving like my master, am I behaving like a master?)
When I think about it, Shahemos, in the form of a baby elephant, knelt down and prayed to me, shedding tears because he did not want to die.
If it weren’t for the sudden quest that appeared at that time, I would have died, so it was the best choice for Shahemoth, but does that mean I resemble him?
(I can’t completely deny it.)
He converted all his internal energy into propulsion and flew through the sky, and when his internal energy ran out, he used Yeonyeong Shingong (連影神功).
Wow!
The moment I stopped for a moment and recovered my energy, King Nang’s red sword energy flew towards me.
(You say you haven’t expanded the distance yet? I’ve achieved the maximum speed I can?)
(No, master, the distance is wide enough. However, the white ring attached to the back is easily visible.)
(It’s a good target because it carries a white ring in the dark sky, right?)
I had never seen myself using black and white twin wheels in a mirror, so I wouldn’t have known.
It seems like the back is a little bright, but because of Shadow Mastery, I can see well even in the dark, so I guess it may also be a part of not noticing it that much.
(Then let’s keep increasing the distance.)
I used all of my recovered strength again as propulsion and headed north.
The EX assimilation rate seems to be increasing as it gets closer to Namgung Sega, but as the combat power increases, the ominous feeling becomes stronger.
*
As I continued to climb north without any hesitation, shaking off King Nang’s pursuit, I arrived at Hebi, a very developed village.
To be precise, should we say that progress has been made? Something huge had hit the body and destroyed the wall, leaving a big hole and houses burning here and there.
I thought it would be better for the warriors remaining in Hefei to move on while killing monsters if I found them around me, but I couldn’t waste time considering the king chasing me from behind.
I recovered my strength again using Yeonyeong Shinkong and flew again towards Namgung Sega, whom I had visited before on a carriage.
I brought up the status window and confirmed that the direction was not wrong as the EX assimilation rate continued to increase, and I arrived at Nangung Sega, which was a complete mess.
(It’s in the place where I fought Namgoonghyeon before.)
Since I was looking down from the sky, I could immediately see where the dimensional gate was.
The old sword king, whose left arm had fallen off, was standing blankly holding his sword with unfocused eyes. I thought that I wanted to resolve this situation quickly.
“Heavenly thunder!”
‘He stopped attacking from the middle! I’ve been caught up!’
If I hadn’t told you the name of the technique, I would have been attacked by the king.
Wooooo!
When I moved forward to avoid the red lightning falling from the sky, my body fell to the ground.
‘This place was within the range of the Sword King?’
Go go go!
Since Baekryun’s acceleration power had not disappeared, I swept the floor with my body and when I stood up, a river full of blue energy greeted me.
Baekryun (white wheel) Bunyeom (噴炎).
The white wheel used for acceleration was brought to the forefront to block strong winds.
Ugh!
When the white heat shield created by the fluttering blue sword energy and white ring resonated, an enormous amount of my stamina was consumed.
Is this a natural result since the powder dye itself was a technique that consumed a lot of internal energy in the first place? And that was enough, but a bundle of red river energy flew towards me from the sky.
‘Was this a mistake?’
I tried to block the attack by immediately moving the white wheel, but the blue energy wrapped around the red energy.
“Ha. Sword King, I don’t know why you’re doing this when you’re in the same situation.”
As King Nang said those words, he removed his eye patch with his hand and golden eyes appeared.
King Nang, who seems to have been transplanted with the eyes of another living being rather than human eyes, and the King of Swords, whose left arm, separated from his body, is opening a dimensional door.
Everything was not normal.
The battle between the blue energy that seemed to cover the sky and the red energy that surged so quickly, resembling a thunderbolt, had entered a transcendental realm that I could not do anything about.
A battle began that was so difficult to participate in that I realized that it was foolish for me to think it was worth it when I reached level 5, so I decided to aim for the relatively empty dimensional door.
‘First, let’s put on the shadow and cut down.’
Holding the Sword of Shadow in my hand, I granted it the Shadow Blade, the power to cut down mana.
Transcendent resonance of black and white twin wheels.
Skill Link-Boost
Yeonhwanryu (連環流) Chamjeol (斬切). Spiritual energy.
In order to apply all the power, we used transcendental resonance and added an element that can cut down the space itself, which can only be used when there is still darkness.
“Ha!”
Ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga!
The downward slash with all my might was blocked in vain.
The Sword King’s left arm, which seemed to be holding the dimension door, moved in time with my sword strike and unfolded a shield made of round scales.
It was similar to the Hyeonmu arm that Old Man Gu was carrying, unfolding a hexagonal shield.
‘In the past, I couldn’t break through even with a spiral breakthrough.’
Since I’m even opening a portal, my defense will be lower than that of Hyunmoo, so if I put all my power into it, will I be able to destroy it?
With that thought, I used my white wheel to avoid the bundle of blue energy that was attacking me as time slowed down.
Shwaaaaa!
Quagga gaga river!!!
If I hadn’t left quickly, I would have been caught up in that flowing blue river, so it was no different from asking the Sword King, whose priority was protecting the portal, to look after me.
And the red sword of the king of reason was shot towards me.
Isn’t it a violation to keep using thrusts at ridiculous speeds while using swords? I used Baekryun’s instantaneous acceleration to avoid attacks targeting certain targets and thought about the strongest move I could use.
‘If you use Unlimited, there is no next time.’
In order to build yang energy, the wave ring resonance had to be maintained as a nine wheel.
Is it really possible to avoid the attacks of those two monstrous swordsmen and thieves without Baekryun?
‘I want to aim for a long-distance sniper, but the problem is that King Nang is in his right mind.’
But you have to do it.
Breaking wheel.
It destroyed the black and white rings within the body and used the amplified heat to build new rings.
Nine wheels, nine wheels, resonance.
A similar level of power as when using Transcendental Resonance lingered in my body.
With my body filled with heat, I used my calmness and insight to the best of my ability and looked at the bundle of strong energy flying towards me to end my life.
I continued to dodge the sword of the King of Swords, which touches gravity and restricts movement, the sword of the King of Dragons, which is sharp in its stabbing force and also fierce in its spread, and the blue and red strong energy with different properties, all by a hair’s breadth.
A cut can be recovered immediately.
There is no problem in moving the body as long as it is penetrated.
Keep your head and body well so that they do not separate, keep your arms and legs from falling off, and build a yam yang qi that can contain everything.
(Master, are you okay?!)
While listening to Shahemoth’s worried voice, I focused on the Sword King and King Nang who were rushing towards me.
All of their attacks were fast, strong, and free.
I made changes by adding skills, but just seeing the attacks of people who had already surpassed those skills was helpful.
When my whole body screamed, and I blocked the pain from my head, enough yang energy was gathered.
‘There is no time to attack while dodging.’
The beginning when the Sword King and the Nang King were fighting was an opportunity, but now there is not even a moment of opportunity.
At that time, a person’s name passed through my mind.
“Namgoonghyeon!”
Did my voice reach the Sword King? The blue steel flag showed a slight gap.
Now that I was desperately avoiding them, I took advantage of the small gap to look at the King of Swords and King of Darkness, and I could see that my resistance had dropped considerably.
Isn’t it natural that you can recover your inner strength just by heating it like Master Yeomwang did? Compared to the two people, I was concentrating on avoiding all attacks, so I was relatively relaxed.
The moment I thought I had time, time slowed down again.
‘Crisis again? ‘Why?’
The attacks of the Sword King and the Nang King are reflected in their eyes.
So, an attack coming from a blind spot? Another king?
Breaking wheel.
While bursting nine rings, he stepped on the wave wheel and escaped from the spot with all his might.
Shooooo!!!
A flash of light flashed where I left.
Kwaaaaa!!!
And then a huge shock wave hit me.
I focused all the heat amplified by the wave wheel on my self-defense strength, but I was unable to control my body as I flew into the air.
When I finally opened my eyes and looked down, I could see a white window stuck in my seat.
And in the blink of an eye, a man with a long, white beard oozing from both legs pulled out a spear.
“To the King of Chang.”
When you think it’s difficult to get your mind right in a combination that seems easier if you give up.
Red flames rose from beneath the feet of the three kings.
“Your body is a mess, disciple.”
Master’s back appeared in front of me after a long time.
