Chapter 807.
Bu Eunseol’s body bore no trace of spiritual energy whatsoever.
Yet Yu Woon Ryong could perceive it.
An unimaginable, terrifying power coiled within his frame.
If that were not the case.
From the moment of his first appearance.
Bu Eunseol would have hastily evacuated them or regarded Juk Lip In with utmost gravity.
But he observed Juk Lip In.
As one might gaze upon a stray dog wandering through the neighborhood—with utter indifference.
Which meant…
Bu Eunseol did not regard Juk Lip In as a mortal nemesis.
Rather, he perceived him as an adversary he could face alone with sufficient capability.
Yu Woon Ryong, a brilliant strategist, observed these subtle details with keen precision and discerned that Bu Eunseol had already attained the Mujik Gyeong.
“Suddenly the Mujik Gyeong? What are you saying?”
“That man concealed his whereabouts and handled various matters during this time.”
Yu Woon Ryong exhaled sharply through his nose.
“And it was likely a matter requiring him to face formidable adversaries. Whenever danger arose, he concealed his tracks and acted alone.”
“Then….”
“Exactly. He fought against tremendous powerhouses and prevailed… and finally ascended to the Mujik Gyeong.”
Myo Cheon Woo’s heart thundered within his chest.
In all of Murim’s history, no one under thirty had ever reached the Mujik Gyeong.
Bu Eunseol was now… writing a new chapter in Murim’s history.
“But why isn’t he attacking?”
Myo Cheon Woo gestured toward Juk Lip In, bewildered.
“Even with minor internal injuries, his energy is in chaotic reversal.”
“He is deliberately granting time for his body to recover.”
“What?”
“Countless formidable enemies will descend upon him like mushrooms after rain.”
Yu Woon Ryong spoke matter-of-factly.
“If he cannot eliminate a single assassin who came alone, what will he accomplish in the future?”
“Is his confidence excessive?”
“No, he trusts himself.”
In that instant, Myo Cheon Woo’s eyes flickered like flames.
He finally understood how Bu Eunseol could reach such an unprecedented realm at so young an age.
“So that is why… he is so formidable.”
When facing mighty adversaries or when great tribulations approach, he never wavers.
Without fail, he strives daily to transcend his limits.
He does not fear failure and advances ever forward.
“When I heard he had suppressed the Mujik Deung Gak, I thought it reckless.”
Furthermore, the reason for his rapid ascension in strength was.
It was not because she followed the standards set by others, but because she walked the path she believed in.
It was a path where the way ahead was utterly obscured.
Tribulations as harrowing as the Asura Hell unfolded ceaselessly, and she could not know when she would arrive.
She could not even know where she would end up.
But Bu Eunseol believed in herself.
And the place she finally reached was… a shortcut that was several times faster than the paths others had taken.
Snap.
At that moment, a sound like a rope snapping echoed from Juk Lip In’s body, and the shockwave of his inner energy began to ripple outward.
He had completely subdued the reversed energy and restored his body to perfect condition.
Zing. Snap.
As Bu Eunseol spread her true energy, a colossal barrier of force unfolded across dozens of zhang in all directions.
The Life-Death Battle Ground, which once took more than an hour to establish, she now set up in a single breath.
This was partly to prevent the outside world from witnessing this battle.
But it also revealed her resolve to share life and death with Yu Woon Ryong and the others within the formation.
[Watch from a safe distance at the edge of the formation.]
Bu Eunseol transmitted her voice to Yu Woon Ryong and Myo Cheon Woo.
[Simply observing a master’s battle will grant you tremendous insights.]
Whoosh.
At that moment, Juk Lip In slowly removed the bamboo hat he had been wearing as Bu Eunseol approached.
“Haaah.”
He released a hoarse sound—whether laughter or a battle cry, it was impossible to tell.
And there it was: a purple tongue, severed halfway through.
The reason he had not spoken a single word until now was because Juk Lip In’s tongue had been completely cut away.
“Good.”
Bu Eunseol, having discerned what Juk Lip In meant to convey, nodded in acknowledgment.
“Since you waited for me, I will wait for you as well.”
The reason Juk Lip In had not killed Yu Woon Ryong and Myo Cheon Woo outright, but instead subdued the energy within his body.
It was because he sensed a tremendous master from afar.
Bu Eunseol was rapidly approaching this place.
So rather than kill these two insignificant wretches, he had chosen to swiftly stabilize the energy within his body.
To prepare himself to face the formidable opponent drawing near.
The moment Bu Eunseol spoke her words of patience, Juk Lip In began organizing his energy once more.
Whooom.
At last, his battle preparations were complete.
Light flowed from Juk Lip In’s pupils, and suddenly the whites of his eyes turned pitch black.
Zing.
And white pupils emerged.
Ordinarily, a human should possess black pupils within white sclera.
But white pupils had formed within black sclera instead.
It was a form like that of an abyssal monster encountered in a nightmare.
“So it was Incheon.”
Bu Eunseol’s eyes gleamed as she gazed at the crimson spear he wielded.
“With a spear in hand, could he be Jang In?”
Whiiiing.
As if answering her question, a formidable aura bloomed from the tip of the red spear.
Kwaaang!
As radiance burst forth from the crimson spear, even the sky itself turned a dark crimson,
and a colossal meteor shower capable of destroying all creation began to descend upon Bu Eunseol’s head.
Mortals cannot alter the color of the heavens, nor summon meteor showers.
Mujik Gyeong.
Jang In had transcended mere martial refinement, wielding the absolute power of an apex that surpassed human limitations.
Flash!
At that moment, a five-colored radiance erupted from Bu Eunseol’s body, shooting forth in an instant.
She had prepared for Juk Lip In to unleash Mujik Gyeong.
From the moment she arrived at this place,
she had been readying her Harmony to counter it.
Paaah!
When the two forces unleashed by the masters collided, Yu Woon Ryong and Myo Cheon Woo’s eyes widened.
―The hidden explosives will detonate!
If such power collides?
Surely the shockwave of true energy would soar to the ends of the sky, and the trees and rocks in the forest would melt like taffy.
And the explosives they had set in this place would undoubtedly detonate from such a powerful collision.
“….”
Yet an unexpected situation unfolded.
Nothing happened at all.
As Bu Eunseol poured forth her light,
the colossal meteor showers falling from the crimson sky simply vanished without a trace.
There was no collision whatsoever.
―What is that?
Yu Woon Ryong and Myo Cheon Woo witnessed Bu Eunseol’s Harmony for the first time, so they did not know it was a mysterious force that annihilated all things.
Flicker.
Then Jang In shook the crimson spear shaft once more.
Kwauuu!
The sky turned crimson again as another colossal meteor shower began to pour down.
Flash!
Bu Eunseol likewise unleashed her Harmony in succession.
Upon obtaining the Wind Cloud Divine Technique, not only did the conflicting energies within her body stabilize,
but she could now unleash Harmony three times consecutively without any strain on her body.
Whoosh.
As the power of Harmony caused Mujik Gyeong to vanish in an instant,
Whoooosh.
Jang In’s eyes blazed crimson.
Recognizing that his Mujik Gyeong could not penetrate this formidable opponent, he resolved to destroy her body directly through his weapon.
Crack!
A fan-like expanse of radiant light unfurled.
Hundreds of crimson spear shafts multiplied, piercing toward Bu Eunseol’s vital points.
Jang In’s spear technique was, in truth, the supreme ancestor of all spear arts scattered throughout the Murim.
Though the heavy spear moved with deceptive lightness, infinite power dwelt within each thrust.
The speed at which he deployed his techniques surpassed even lightning itself.
Tssss.
Even as I immediately unleashed my Extreme Speed Shadowless technique, my body bore fresh wounds.
The crimson spear danced with spectral grace.
It predicted my movements in advance and unleashed attacks tailored to counter them.
‘Formidable.’
I could not suppress my inner admiration.
Jang In’s spear technique did not merely attack the enemy—it dominated space itself, much like the Namgung Family’s Imperial Sword Form.
Within each individual technique lay principles that transcended orthodox martial methods.
He was pouring forth entirely new martial mysteries that the masters of the Murim had never before demonstrated.
Shimmer!
Moreover, each time the spear shaft moved at such velocity,
I felt something sharp and piercing drive keenly into my mind.
Heart Strike.
Jang In’s spear art was not merely the movement of a weapon—it possessed the power to pierce and wound even the opponent’s spirit itself.
Crackle.
Purple lightning flowed from my body.
Unable to respond to the speed Jang In unleashed, my Thunder Divine Force activated of its own accord.
Crackle! Boom!
As the Thunder Divine Force erupted, my movements accelerated far beyond anything before.
With my reflexes heightened, I could now intercept Jang In’s lightning-swift attacks at close range.
Clang clang clang clang!
As close combat commenced, Jang In moved as though wielding hundreds of spears simultaneously.
Creating thousands of spear shadows in all directions.
Bang bang bang bang!
Yet the Muk Hon Sword, infused with Thunder Divine Force, struck down the tip of each incoming spear with precision.
Shatter!
As the Thunder Divine Force reached its zenith, the sword shadows I created began to overwhelm the spear’s phantoms.
By nature, weapons like spears are vulnerable in close combat.
Because Jang In wielded his long spear with rapid sweeps,
the trajectory had to travel a greater distance compared to the relatively shorter arc of the Muk Hon Sword.
Thud.
Suddenly, the spear in Jang In’s hand multiplied into two.
He had separated what was once a unified weapon and now wielded both with blinding speed.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
As they closed the distance until their faces nearly touched, the exchange reached its crescendo.
It was no longer a mere clash of physical techniques, but a collision of spiritual force against spiritual force.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Ting! Ting! Ting! Ting!
The metallic impacts grew increasingly rapid, then abruptly ceased as both fighters froze mid-motion.
Time itself seemed to halt, and the world fell into an infinite silence.
Whooom!
A deep vibration suddenly resonated through the air.
Jang In had shifted tactics, initiating an internal energy clash against Bu Eunseol.
With their distance so perilously close, there was no way to evade such a confrontation.
Rumble, rumble, rumble.
As the internal energy battle erupted, the ground trembled violently, and spider-web cracks began spreading across its surface.
Whooom!
The pressure expanded relentlessly, growing more ferocious, yet Bu Eunseol’s expression remained serene and untroubled.
My current internal energy reserves exceeded ten decades—a power of immeasurable depth.
In all of Tianxia, none could match my internal force.
Jang In, who had never dreamed I possessed such vast reserves,
had inadvertently abandoned his greatest strength and engaged me on terrain wholly favorable to my victory.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Unable to withstand the tremendous pressure, Jang In’s face began to contort.
At this rate, his meridians would liquefy and his body would rupture.
Whoosh!
At that moment, a crimson meteor suddenly plummeted from the Distant Sky toward my head.
Unable to withstand my overwhelming internal energy, Jang In hurled one of his spear shafts upward with a single hand.
Boom!
As I retreated a step, Jang In attempted to escape the domain of the internal energy clash.
But that was merely his delusion.
Whooom.
My internal force was not only formidable but also viscous as glue,
rendering escape from the clash impossible.
“Ughhhh.”
Emitting a grotesque cry, Jang In unleashed a crimson aura from his body.
It was a force utterly alien to conventional internal energy.
Screech!
The power was tremendous, momentarily repelling my ten-decade reserves in an instant.
‘Is this the unique power possessed by Jin Ma’s subordinates?’
Boom!
Seizing that opportunity, Jang In conjured hundreds of spear phantoms once more.
As if she had been waiting, Bu Eunseol immediately wielded the Muk Hon Sword to counter his assault.
“That is….”
Myo Cheon Woo, watching from a distance, could not close his mouth.
Each time weapons imbued with tremendous inner force collided, cyan light soared to the very edge of the heavens.
With every shift in their movements, shockwaves rippled outward like a tempest.
To his eyes, this was no ordinary battle between Murim masters.
It appeared as though divine warriors from mythology had descended to earth and were clashing.
“So this creature has always fought against such masters…?”
Yu Woon Ryong nodded at Myo Cheon Woo’s words.
“Perhaps.”
Yu Woon Ryong took a deep breath and nodded.
“All along.”
Bu Eunseol’s martial prowess had transcended the Jeol Jeong realm and entered the Celestial Human Domain.
Without even deploying the supreme techniques of Musang Cheon Ryu, Blood Dew Seven Techniques, or the Three Divine Arts.
She was confronting a master of Mujik Gyeong head-on with perfect confidence.
“And now she has found her path.”
Bu Eunseol had not ascended to the Mujik Gyeong realm; instead, she had departed seeking a new path whose destination remained unknown.
And at last, she had discovered her own unique way.
Otherwise, she could not have matched a master of Mujik Gyeong so evenly in such a short time.
“A completely new path.”
For centuries, Murim had yearned for the realm of Mujik Gyeong.
And if someone had claimed that realm first, it was difficult for those who came after to surpass it.
Because they had climbed the stairs first.
Because they were ascending ahead.
But Bu Eunseol shattered the stairs laid before her eyes.
And soared directly into the heavens in a single bound.
“Grraaaah!”
Jang In roared toward the sky as Bu Eunseol continued to match him evenly in combat.
Boom!
At that same moment, a crimson aura began to spread in a sphere from his entire body.
Drawing endless circles with his crimson spear.
He had created an invincible force that could destroy all things and could not be breached by any power.
Clang! Clang!
When the Muk Hon Sword touched the crimson force, it was repelled outward by tremendous power.
Whoosh.
When her weapon proved ineffective, Bu Eunseol deployed the Kwon Ma Chil Sik Fourth Form, Thousand Hands Shattering Strike.
Boom!
As a tempestuous wave of fist force poured forth, the force surrounding Jang In’s body trembled like waves.
Yet in the end, it did not shatter.
Tap! Tap!
As a flaw appeared in Bu Eunseol’s movements, a crimson spear shaft suddenly erupted from within the circular qi barrier.
Bu Eunseol barely evaded it, yet even the grazing contact left a long wound across her flank.
Considering that her inner strength had reached its zenith, where ordinary attacks left barely a scratch—
One could imagine just how devastating Jang In’s strike truly was.
“Damn it. How am I supposed to defeat such a monster?”
Myo Cheon Woo, watching from a distance, bit his lip.
The moment Jang In fused his unbreakable qi barrier with his terrifying spear technique, the tide of battle shifted dramatically.
Bu Eunseol found herself struggling against the onslaught.
He wanted to rush in and help immediately, but—
If he stepped into the radius of that clash, his body would be torn to shreds in an instant.
“No, he has already devised a counter-method.”
Yu Woon Ryong pointed toward Bu Eunseol as he spoke.
“Look closely.”
With a metallic click.
As Bu Eunseol sheathed the Muk Hon Sword, a crimson radiance blazed from her eyes and hands.
She had already penetrated the nature of the qi barrier surrounding Jang In’s body.
The Heavenly Water Breaking Technique had merely been the process of confirmation.
And now, preparing the decisive strike to shatter it—
The Falling Star Crossing Moon Technique, which seized a fleeting instant to deliver death upon the enemy.
A brilliant flash!
With dazzling radiance, the Falling Star Crossing Moon Technique finally unfurled.
Yet something was strange.
The moment the ultra-high-speed Falling Star Crossing Moon Technique touched the qi barrier—
It moved sluggishly.
For the briefest instant, it seemed to pour forth slowly, not at its original velocity.
A sharp sound!
Then something impossible occurred.
Crimson blood erupted from Jang In’s shoulder, despite the red qi barrier enveloping his body.
How had she pierced through the absolutely unbreakable qi barrier?
“So it was not a qi barrier created from spear force, but rather a secret technique that uses the incoming force as a counter-reaction directly.”
Myo Cheon Woo exclaimed upon grasping Jang In’s method.
No matter how supreme one’s martial arts reached the Mujik Gyeong—
It was logically impossible to surround oneself infinitely with qi that could destroy and block everything.
―Then could it be that through the principles of the highest martial philosophy, he was creating an illusion like a qi barrier?
Bu Eunseol harbored such suspicion and deployed the Heavenly Water Breaking Technique, pouring forth pure force.
Thus she could discern the true nature of the qi barrier.
A principle similar to the harmony transformation of Tai Chi—
And utilizing the principle of Adaptive Force Increase, where the stronger the enemy’s power, the stronger one’s own becomes—
He was endlessly redirecting the cascading attacks.
The problem was that such subtleties could not be grasped in such a short time during combat.
Yet for Bu Eunseol, who endlessly researched the profound mysteries of martial arts across Tianxia and had mastered the Distant Sky Heart Eye, it was nothing.
―Then it should be easy to break.
As Bu Eunseol unfolded her sword technique, the moment her blade touched the energy barrier, she thrust forward with extreme slowness and weakness.
Consequently, the barrier failed to generate proper recoil, and the Muk Hon Sword passed straight through.
Splurt!
Once again, blood bloomed from Jang In’s body.
Ultimately, the formidable energy that could block everything had become useless.
As Bu Eunseol shattered Jang In’s martial principles, his eyes blazed crimson with fury.
The Eight Immortals Heaven were all grand masters who profoundly influenced the martial arts of Murim, and among them, none possessed greater pride than Jang In.
That his techniques had been broken by a young martial artist like Bu Eunseol—
It was a humiliation beyond all others.
Krrrrr.
A strange energy ripple emanated from Jang In’s body.
[Grrrgh.]
And he released an angry, guttural cry.
Reaching the Mujik Gyeong meant, in other words, mastering the principles of a single martial discipline to perfection.
Since Bu Eunseol had wounded him using only martial principles without deploying true qi techniques,
He too would now fight using only the principles of martial arts.
“Good.”
Originally, Bu Eunseol had been preparing to employ the Musang Cheon Ryu technique infused with the Three Divine Energies.
But as Jang In chose to fight with pure martial principles, she too drew upon only her inner power.
“To have refined the spear to such a miraculous realm that you’ve never faced a true match until now.”
Facing Jang In, the prospect of comparing her mastered sword techniques filled Bu Eunseol’s heart with exhilaration.
Whoooosh.
Tens of thousands of razor-sharp light streaks wove through the air from all directions,
And a peerless spear technique of world-shaking power enveloped Bu Eunseol’s form.
These were speeds that far transcended what human flesh could possibly achieve.
Thrash thrash!
In that instant, the Muk Hon Sword in Bu Eunseol’s hand thrashed like a freshly caught fish,
And a luminous membrane formed around her body.
Simultaneously, it began precisely deflecting the cascade of spear strikes.
As Jang In unleashed a barrage of killing intent using pure martial principles, the Wind-Cloud Harmony Formation activated,
And the absolute defense technique that responded to murderous aura—the Diamond Fish Sword Technique—was triggered.
Clang clang clang clang!
With metallic rings, spear tips and sword tips began colliding precisely in mid-air.
No matter how exceptional a master might be, if subjected to ultra-high-speed close-range attacks at such proximity,
One’s mind must focus entirely.
But Bu Eunseol didn’t need to concentrate on defense because the Diamond Fish Sword Technique responded automatically.
‘This is…’
And another transformation occurred.
‘The Wind Cloud Harmony Seal… it resonates perfectly with the Wind Cloud Divine Energy.’
The Wind Cloud Harmony Seal was the heart method required to activate the Diamond Shattering Sword Technique.
It not only sensed killing intent but naturally perceived the flow of air,
allowing it to effortlessly block incoming attacks—much like the heart method of the Diamond Shattering Sword Technique itself.
In other words, the Wind Cloud Harmony Seal was remarkably similar to the method of channeling the Wind Cloud Divine Energy flowing through Bu Eunseol’s body,
and as a result, the power of the Diamond Shattering Sword Technique had grown even more formidable.
Thud, thud, thud, thud! Clang, clang, clang!
The Diamond Shattering Sword Technique, now merged with the Wind Cloud Divine Energy, began moving at such extraordinary speed that even Bu Eunseol could barely keep pace.
Not only did it perfectly defend against Jang In’s spear technique, but it could even perceive the minute flaws within it.
Boom!
Bu Eunseol seized that fleeting moment, twisting her fist to unleash the Extreme Lightning Mixed Essence Technique.
Whoosh!
The Extreme Lightning Mixed Essence Technique, released while the Wind Cloud Divine Energy naturally manifested,
became a fist force as sharp and keen as a polished blade.
Crack!
As Jang In’s right arm flew away, a terrifying inner force flooded into his meridians.
[Aaahhh!]
Jang In, his severed tongue producing agonized groans,
Whoosh!
used the blood pouring from his severed arm
to create hundreds of blood-clot spears that he hurled at Bu Eunseol.
As the blood clots scattered in all directions, the boundary of the Life-Death Battle Ground remarkably began to blur.
‘This too is the power of his subordinates.’
Swish, swish, swish, swish!
Just as the Diamond Shattering Sword Technique automatically blocked the attacks,
Bang!
Jang In instantly deployed a movement technique and fled toward the Distant Sky.
Drip, drip, drip.
Observing the crimson blood pooled thickly where Jang In had stood, Bu Eunseol
did not bother to pursue him as he fled.
The ten heavenly stems’ worth of counter-extreme true energy had already destroyed his protective true energy,
shredded his meridians, and severed his heart meridian with violent force.
Within half a moment, he would become a cold corpse somewhere.
Shudder.
As the battle ended, Myo Cheon Woo and Yu Woon Ryong trembled.
As if a new world had unfolded before their eyes, their expressions brimmed with awe.
The dream of countless young martial artists.
A Grand Master who had reached that supreme pinnacle stood towering before them.
Gazing upon that figure,
the emotions surging from the depths of their hearts could not be suppressed.
At last, Bu Eunseol had….
Reached a level where she could face Jang In, one of the formidable Eight Immortals Heaven, and emerge victorious without sustaining a single wound.
