I Am Alone EX-Grade Summoner Episode 192

Wuji Immortal

At that moment, the air grew heavy.

Hunkyo, holding his sword, gazed at Aso with serious eyes, while in contrast, Aso’s expression was somehow peaceful.

It seemed like there was no strength in the wooden sword she gripped.

Silence.

And at that moment.

– Gasp!

Hunkyo, sensing a faint flow in space, was startled and deflected his sword.

Clang!

Clearly Aso hadn’t moved or thrust her sword…

Yet there was the sound of metal.

How could this make sense?

– Huh!

Hunkyo exclaimed in admiration.

Heavenly Sword.

The sword of heaven can pierce and cut opponents with just the mind, without thrusting.

Though her proficiency was low, Aso was clearly taking her first steps into that realm.

The stage of manifesting one’s will into reality.

A realm leading toward godhood.

– Yes, that’s exactly it, Aso.

– Aso is tired…

From Baek Jin-woo’s perspective, he couldn’t tell what had happened between the two.

However.

Hunkyo was acknowledging it, and Aso seemed completely drained of energy.

Staggering.

She approached Baek Jin-woo.

– Father!

Thud.

She hugged his legs and went completely limp.

“Yes, yes. You worked hard, Soso.”

Whatever it was, she must have trained incredibly hard all this time.

It seemed like the first time he’d seen Hunkyo react like that too.

Baek Jin-woo ruffled Aso’s long black hair.

In case you forgot, let me mention that her real name is Soso.

The martial arts girl, Soso.

“Hunkyo.”

– Yes, Master.

“How is it?”

– To learn Heavenly Sword up to 2-star level… It’s truly unbelievable talent.

“Then we’re moving on to the next lesson right away?”

– That should be fine. However, the process will be difficult. Even I cannot perform this martial art.

Still, well.

Hunkyo wasn’t a Training Instructor for nothing.

He’s EX-grade because he teaches well even things he can’t do himself.

– Aso.

– Mmm.

– I’ll teach you properly starting tomorrow.

– Yaaaay…

The next day.

– Aso.

– Yeah!

Aso, having regained her composure, was sitting in a neat lotus position again.

Inhale, exhale!

Inhale, exhale!

Using the breathing technique of Geoncheon Mind Art to keep body and mind clear and clean.

Also naturally circulating internal energy according to her heartbeat, continuously amplifying her qi.

– Stand up, I’ll start the training as promised.

– Ooooh!

Aso’s eyes sparkled.

The martial arts of the Wuji Immortal.

The ultimate martial art that surpasses everything she’d learned before, even higher than Pacheon Singong!

Learning up to 2-star makes you the best in one world, and reaching 3-star makes you the greatest of all time.

It wasn’t human martial arts to begin with.

It was immortal martial arts.

Therefore, it wasn’t simple.

While humans focus on strength, immortals focus on transcending limits.

– First, the Wuji Immortal’s martial arts I know can be divided into three categories.

– Yeah.

– First is Geoncheon Mind Art. That’s what you and Master are learning through breathing.

Right.

Now it’s only used to relieve fatigue and improve internal energy…

But as that pure internal energy accumulates, it creates a body capable of transcending human limits.

– By the way, I haven’t learned that breathing technique either.

What Hunkyo had learned was Resonance Demon Art.

A peculiar mind technique that, in exchange for sacrificing one’s life, allows smooth control of any kind of energy.

The forbidden demon art preserved by the Cheonma Sect that the Heavenly Demon had ruled.

Of course, since Hunkyo was a summoned creature, he could avoid the worst penalty of the mind technique.

– Right, Geoncheon Mind Art. It’s a really good mind technique. I can feel it too.

– That’s right. Next is the Wuji Heavenly Sword Technique.

– Wuji… Heavenly Sword Technique?

Wuji Heavenly Sword Technique.

A sword technique with the magnificent name of transcending limits!

This was the core sword technique of the Wuji Immortal.

Therefore, it doesn’t set limits on sword techniques.

Whatever comes to mind immediately becomes a skill…!

A profound yet strange sword technique.

– It’s also a sword technique that requires spiritual training rather than physical conditioning. If properly mastered, you can create fire with a sword, distort space, cut the sky, and create thousands of phantom swords like Doldoli’s formless swords to rain down. Also… this is just a vision in my head, but there seems to be a technique called Chaos Sword… that absorbs all the energy in the world with a sword and releases it.

– Cough.

Aso, who had been listening, cleared her throat.

– Just hearing about it sounds incredible! Is that possible?

– That’s why he’s the Wuji Immortal. A transcendent being who became an immortal by surpassing human limits.

– He must have been truly amazing. If there are three categories, what’s the last one?

– Azure Sky Movement Technique.

– Blue sky movement technique?

– That’s right.

– He must have really loved the sky. Same with the Wuji Heavenly Sword Technique.

Azure Sky Movement Technique.

The name was very clear and pure, but the techniques contained within were terrifying.

– Azure Sky Movement Technique is the same way. Thousand-Li Meteor, Wind Transformation Without Trace, Dimensional Sprint, Flash Step… From what I can see, these aren’t metaphors. You can actually become like that.

– That means….

Aso frowned.

– Ah.

And chuckled.

Master Hunkyo!

Your jokes are really too much!

– What movement technique in the world crashes down like a meteor to cross a thousand li, becomes light as wind leaving no trace, leaps between dimensions, and moves at the speed of light?

– It’s not ‘like’.

– Eh?

– You actually become a real meteor. You become real wind, move between dimensions, and become light.

– What does that even mean.

– I don’t know either. That’s probably why I can’t learn it.

– Kek.

Aso coughed awkwardly.

– You’re going to teach me something so ridiculous right now?!

– Don’t doubt me. Among all the knowledge I possess, the Wuji Immortal’s techniques suit you best.

– Hmm.

That’s probably right.

How many potential abilities has Hunkyo unlocked?

Countless summoned creatures of SKY Guild have passed through Hunkyo’s hands and are growing splendidly.

And at that moment.

In the sight of Baek Jin-woo, who was sitting far away watching the training scene.

[Emergency Quest Activated!]

[An emergency Quest has arrived for ‘Aso’ (EX-grade)!]

[Would you like to open the Quest?]

[Y/N]

A system window appeared.

“What.”

He shot up.

Why is this appearing?

Wasn’t Aso’s condition to master one martial art to perfection?

So I thought it was still far off?

“Yes! Open it!”

Let me read it first.

[Emergency Quest!]

[Learn the martial arts of the Wuji Immortal (???-grade)!]

[Though he was human, the Wuji Immortal transcended humanity to become an immortal! There are almost no beings capable of learning his martial arts! However, this possibility has been raised for Aso! This is a golden opportunity!]

[Learn three of the Wuji Immortal’s techniques to 1-star level! (1/3)]

[There are no type restrictions!]

“Huh.”

Baek Jin-woo sighed.

First time seeing this.

Not S-grade, not EX-grade….

???-grade?

What’s that?

Is it a higher grade?

Or is it so overwhelmingly powerful that the system can’t display it?

There’s no way to know.

I can feel it even here.

Just how ridiculous this being called the Wuji Immortal is.

Telling the genius Aso… to only learn to 1-star level.

That’s the condition for unlocking potential abilities.

And only three out of countless skills.

But?

(1/3)

One is already learned.

Must be the Clear Heart Art.

“Aso!”

As Baek Jin-woo approached.

– Yeah, Father!

Aso threw down the wooden sword and clung to his thigh.

I’ve been noticing this lately, but our Aso is quite affectionate.

Yu Ji-a likes her a lot too.

Whether it’s sense or instinct.

She always calls her Mother.

“Let’s learn two more Wuji Immortal techniques.”

– That’s correct, Master.

Hunkyo nodded.

His potential ability ‘Instructor’ seemed to be telling him.

– The Wuji Immortal’s skills themselves are probably Aso’s hidden potential abilities.

“Huh, really?”

– It will be a difficult path. But if it’s just to 1-star level… I’ll somehow make her learn it.

“Yeah, you’re working hard.”

– Not at all, Master.

Hunkyo raised his right arm horizontally and bowed his head.

That guy’s expression was more vivid than ever.

He’s happy.

He’s happy just to be training those ridiculous skills.

Truly living up to his name.

“Aso, did you hear? Work hard, okay?”

– Yeah, Father! Hunkyo seems to be talking nonsense! But I’ll do my best anyway!

Hey, calling it nonsense.

It’ll all become our flesh and blood.

– Aso.

Hunkyo spoke up.

– Yeah?

– If you learn just those skills I mentioned to some degree, even Pokryong won’t be a match for you.

– Hehe.

Aso stuck out her tongue.

At this point.

The strongest summoned creature in Baek Jin-woo’s squad!

The Explosive Dragon Mage.

She’ll be able to subdue her?

Suddenly I feel motivated.

‘Father likes strong summoned creatures.’

If that happens, couldn’t I win back some of the affection directed toward Pokryong?

– Hunkyo! What should I learn first?

– First, the movement technique. Wind Traceless Step.

– Becoming the wind?

– That’s right. Let’s learn that to 1-star level first. Get in position and close your eyes.

Full-scale training had begun.

PBC’s ambitiously prepared project!

【Challenge of the World’s Strongest】 had already aired up to part 3 and was a sensational hit.

And now.

A new documentary was produced as part of the Baek Jin-woo series.

The name?

【Demon Realm Conquest】

This was also a trilogy.

You could indirectly see the 51st and 60th floors of the Tower of Trials, and this time there’s a special appearance! Rachel appears.

“Wow.”

First.

Yu Ji-a, who received the part 1 review request file, was amazed.

“I don’t think even movies could be made this well.”

Starting with the 51st floor.

From the ruined research lab, you could feel the overwhelming presence of the scene.

Moreover, from here on, the summoned creatures openly speak.

Part 1 was structured up to exactly the 53rd floor, before meeting Rachel.

The final scene was spectacular.

– Kiaaa!

– Kiaaaaa!

A scene was first captured of souls viciously swarming in the distance, tormenting someone.

Anyone could tell.

That it was Rachel.

“Let’s go.”

Baek Jin-woo muttered, and the summoned creatures now called Baek Jin-woo’s Squad all rushed out at once.

Whoosh, whoooosh!

Pokryong began breathing fire, and the souls died instantly.

Finally.

Part 1 ended with discovering Rachel collapsed and asleep.

She immediately made a phone call.

Directly to the PBC Director.

– Did you see it? If there are any parts that need revision, please feel free to tell us!

“It’s not just that I like it, you know?”

– Excuse me?

“When will you give us part 2?”

– Well, the experts are working on it all night, but it seems like it’ll take a bit longer. There’s just too much footage.

“It’s so well done. I feel like locking up the entire documentary team and feeding them only steamed dumplings.

– Hehehe, we’re just grateful for such high praise. The part I’m slightly worried about is the scenes where the summoned creatures talk… would it be okay to broadcast that?

“Of course.”

Yu Ji-a smiled.

Was there anyone in the world who didn’t know about that now?

She was certain.

The moment this video spread, Baek Jin-woo’s brand value would skyrocket.

Until now.

There were still many people who thought Baek Jin-woo was on par with Rachel.

Publicly, it was known that Baek Jin-woo barely won in the World League finals.

But?

The moment they see this video, it would be confirmed.

The undisputed world number 1!

They would understand why he was jokingly called Ilcheon (One Sky) by those rotten waters.

“I think you can proceed like this.”

– Hehehe, thank you… Then.

The Director and Yu Ji-a shared more detailed plans.

Various marketing and profit distribution matters.

The atmosphere between the two, facing an obvious jackpot, was naturally harmonious.
