Chapter 458. …Huh…?

 

 

Whoosh.

She dodged the Blood Jiangshi’s fingertips.

Her hair fluttered in the wind.

Ha Seol-ran calmly raised her shield to block the next attack, then thrust her sword according to her role.

The sword pierced straight through the Blood Jiangshi’s neck.

Without rejoicing or letting out a cheer.

She calmly retreated according to the formation’s movement.

Maengryong Corps Seventh Group.

The formation created by the remaining five, excluding Baek Ri-pyeong and Ju U-myeong, moved organically as they cut down countless jiangshi.

Baek Ri-pyeong and Ju U-myeong.

The two were facing the Silent Iron Jiangshi together with swords that generated sword energy.

The Silent Iron Jiangshi was indeed solid and strong, but the combined attack of Ju U-myeong and Baek Ri-pyeong was stronger.

They were steadily taking them down one by one.

Wi Ji-gun was facing the combined assault of the Myeolcheon Jiangshi, Dark Blood Jiangshi, and Silent Iron Jiangshi.

While he watched the attacks flying toward him without rest.

Part of his concentration was directed elsewhere.

Specifically, toward Ha Seol-ran.

The most important thing to Wi Ji-gun was her safety.

Next came his own safety.

And after that, the safety of those present here.

Therefore.

He remained ready to help her at any moment.

Accordingly, the power he could use against the enemies before him was inevitably reduced.

‘She’s doing quite well.’

Even now.

He was clearly watching and sensing each of Ha Seol-ran’s movements.

The most certain method would be to immediately defeat all these creatures and go to her side.

But these enemies were not to be taken lightly either.

Wi Ji-gun.

Could not defeat them instantly while dividing his attention toward Ha Seol-ran.

The moment he focused his mind entirely on these enemies to eliminate them.

Even if just for an instant.

He would have to turn his gaze away from Ha Seol-ran.

And in that single moment.

No one knew what might happen.

So Wi Ji-gun could not do so.

It might even be easier to temporarily withdraw, take Ha Seol-ran to a safe place, then return to sweep them away.

But Ha Seol-ran would not want that.

In a life-or-death situation, her safety would come before her opinion.

But in a situation like this.

Wi Ji-gun wanted to respect his disciple’s opinion as much as possible.

Clang! Clang! Clang-clang-clang! Boom-boom-boom-bang!

Loud and rough sounds echoed without rest.

Wi Ji-gun’s figure, using the seven techniques of the Wuji Yeoui Eight Absolute Sword Sea at the right moments to block the combined attacks of seven jiangshi and counterattack.

Was like an iron wall that could not be brought down by anything.

Dongbang Un seemed angered by such an enemy’s appearance.

He was pouring out increasingly powerful palm force.

His expression gradually changed.

Despite being a jiangshi, it was contorting fiercely.

 

“Left!”

At Yeon Ha-min’s instruction, Dan Mok Un-rae’s sword flew to the left with fierce momentum.

Bang!

“Behind you!”

Nak U-jin quickly turned and raised his shield.

Bang!

The Silent Iron Jiangshi’s attack rang out heavily.

“Seol-ran!”

Before Yeon Ha-min’s shout even ended, Ha Seol-ran moved quickly.

She too could sense the Blood Jiangshi approaching her through her qi perception.

Yeon Ha-min was exerting concentration as if her eyes might pop out.

The future sight thus manifested showed her the surrounding jiangshi.

The current movements of countless jiangshi overlapped with their future movements moments later.

Truly mind-splitting information flowed into her head through her eyes.

Yeon Ha-min analyzed it instantly and instructed her team members on appropriate responses.

The Maengryong Corps Seventh Group, already the strongest.

Thanks to her, they were rapidly defeating the surrounding jiangshi.

The Seventh Group’s movements gradually drew the attention of the Silent Iron Jiangshi and Dark Blood Jiangshi.

Within that, Ha Seol-ran was gradually growing stronger.

Experiencing this kind of group battle using qi perception for the first time.

Her abilities were gradually developing.

‘Just a little more.’

Enough for her to feel it herself.

“U-jin!”

At Yeon Ha-min’s shout, Nak U-jin’s sword moved.

The waist of the Blood Jiangshi that had just charged was cut away.

‘Ugh.’

The chest pain felt at that moment.

Nak U-jin only slightly frowned.

Whenever he came to Sanwol Demon Forest, he felt this strange pain.

Sometimes in his chest area.

Sometimes in his head.

It was inexplicable.

Nevertheless, Nak U-jin concentrated and faced the enemy.

Losing concentration in such a place was not just his problem alone.

It would be an action that put his comrades in danger as well.

 

“Those guys fight incredibly well.”

The Seventh Group’s appearance stood out like a crane among chickens, naturally catching the eye.

At Pung Geon’s muttering in admiration of that sight.

“Focus!”

Yu Gwi-gwang shouted.

Pung Geon made an embarrassed expression and infused his sword with internal energy.

Scrape.

Gwan Ha-gyeong’s blade brought down another Silent Iron Jiangshi.

Though the Seventh Group was called exceptional, the Black Squad’s second group was even more impressive.

They were specifically hunting down and cutting through only the Silent Iron Jiangshi.

Since the Maengryong Corps was showing unexpectedly strong performance.

They decided to leave the Blood Jiangshi and Poison Jiangshi to them, and take down the Silent Iron Jiangshi that would be difficult for them to handle.

What about the Dark Blood Jiangshi?

Five of them were rushing toward the two people displaying seamless power.

And there were about five remaining ones.

One of them was instantly brought down by six Hotian Dan members working together.

The remaining four were being held back by five Hotian Dan members.

There might still be more Dark Blood Jiangshi hiding somewhere.

Dark Blood Jiangshi were on a completely different level from other jiangshi.

Of course, they weren’t as powerful as that monster jiangshi that had pounded the castle wall.

The battle was proceeding fiercely.

Then at some moment.

Ha Seol-ran’s expression changed drastically.

She had sensed another massive force approaching.

But while she was focused on the battle.

That force had increased to six.

It was the same as before.

The approaching force had stopped, joined with new forces, and was now rushing toward them.

The current situation maintaining an even balance.

Would be brutally shattered the moment they arrived.

Just as she was about to immediately inform everyone of this fact.

She felt conflicted.

Right now, the Maengryong Corps’ morale was indescribably high.

They were successfully fending off the sudden attack of the jiangshi horde.

Something that would have been impossible without the practical training against that jiangshi at Gyoryong Hall.

They were now proudly accomplishing it.

With even the Jeongcheon Alliance Leader and the Mysterious Master joining in.

They were holding back the monster-like jiangshi.

At a time like this.

If she informed them that six more monster jiangshi were coming?

Ha Seol-ran couldn’t predict the outcome.

So she had no choice but to hesitate.

“Seol-ran!”

Then Yeon Ha-min’s sharp voice pierced her ears.

Ha Seol-ran was startled and hastily raised her shield.

Clang!

It was a strike from a Poison Jiangshi.

Scrape.

And when had he appeared?

The sword of the person called the Vice-Leader of Hotian Dan.

Split that Poison Jiangshi vertically.

Dam Mu-heun glanced at Ha Seol-ran, gave her a slight smile, then disappeared.

“Focus!”

At Yeon Ha-min’s shout, Ha Seol-ran nodded and raised her shield again.

When Ha Seol-ran had momentarily lost her concentration.

Wi Ji-gun’s sword wavered slightly.

And when she escaped from danger, his sword returned to its original momentum.

Dongbang Un watched this scene clearly.

When the sword wavered, the direction Wi Ji-gun’s gaze turned toward.

Dongbang Un looked at that place.

‘That woman.’

He understood immediately.

His action after understanding was easy.

Just as two Dark Blood Jiangshi were attacking Wi Ji-gun.

Swoosh.

Dongbang Un immediately launched his body.

Toward Ha Seol-ran.

“…Huh…?”

At that moment.

Yeon Ha-min’s thoughts stopped.

An unbelievable scene appeared before her eyes.

The sight of all their necks flying off at once and Ha Seol-ran being grabbed by the throat.

Because she could see before her eyes the future after that monster charged toward them in an instant.

Her thoughts stopped, and her cries ceased.

It was the same for Ha Seol-ran.

When that tremendous energy exploded toward her, there was nothing she could do.

At that moment.

There was only one person who assessed the situation and moved.

It was Wi Ji-gun.

“You bastard!!!”

To think that a mere insignificant jiangshi.

Would read the worry he had shown for just an instant, identify his weakness, and act on it.

‘I was complacent.’

He blamed himself, but that was for later.

What he needed to do now was catch that damn jiangshi bastard.

Wi Ji-gun’s internal energy surged through his entire body as if about to explode.

In an instant, his body shot forward.

The Lightning Swift Travel covering an extremely short distance.

For the first time since the battle began, he used his full power.

Because it was about saving Ha Seol-ran.

He had no time to worry about anything else.

Scrape.

Then.

The sword swung by a Dark Blood Jiangshi cut the hem of his pants on his thigh.

A thin line of blood also formed.

But he paid it no mind.

Wi Ji-gun, shot forward like a beam of light, instantly caught up behind Dongbang Un.

Dongbang Un had now reached within arm’s length of the Seventh Group.

“Huh, huh?”

Then Yeon Ha-min saw the changed future in her eyes.

Still, the unchanging fact was that they would be defeated by the jiangshi before their eyes.

However.

It was different from just before when she could do nothing.

The newly appeared future showed that jiangshi defeating them but failing to capture Ha Seol-ran and falling to the elder.

If that was the case.

“Fall back with full force!”

Yeon Ha-min poured all her internal energy into her sword and hurled it toward Dongbang Un while shouting.

She wasn’t hoping for a long time.

She just needed a moment’s respite.

A thrown sword to create that opening.

Dongbang Un dodged the sword flying toward his face by slightly turning his head.

Even the time to deflect it was precious.

He too had felt the tremendous momentum of Wi Ji-gun approaching from behind.

He had to catch that woman as quickly as possible.

The sword that just flew at him made him change his plan.

He had intended to sweep away everything around and capture her.

But since those bastards were retreating in the meantime.

He reached out his arm to catch only the woman.

In his eyes.

The face of the bitch who had thrown the sword at him came into view.

A smile playing at the corners of her mouth.

It was an expression of relief.

‘What?’

The moment that question formed.

Slice.

The sword that had fallen from midair.

Cut off the arm he had extended toward his target woman.

“Damn bastard.”

Then.

A menacing voice reached his ears.

Wi Ji-gun had somehow blocked his path.

His sword burst into flames.

Pure white sword energy blazed up, too brilliant to look at directly.

It transformed into white flames.

The moment he confirmed this.

Wi Ji-gun’s sword moved.

Mugeuk Yeoui Eight Severing Sword Sea.

Eighth Severing Mugeuk.

The moment one sword technique unfolded.

It devoured not only Dongbang Un but also the remaining Dark Blood Jiangshi and Silent Iron Jiangshi rushing from behind.

“Wh-what the…”

He hastily unleashed his full power with his other intact arm.

But so futilely.

It was consumed by Wi Ji-gun’s sword.

White flames swept across Wi Ji-gun’s front.

Kuaaaaaaaaaaa!

A rough and ferocious explosion that seemed not of this mortal world erupted and.

Disappeared.

Perfect annihilation that left not even dust behind.

At that sight.

The battle paused momentarily.

Because a scene beyond imagination had unfolded.

‘Indeed…’

The thoroughly exhausted So Hwi-ung nodded slightly with an expression of admiration.

Before him lay two fallen Dark Blood Jiangshi and two Silent Iron Jiangshi.

And even Chu Geum-ryeong, the Myeolcheon Gangsi, showing clear signs of exhaustion.

So Hwi-ung recalled a sword technique he had seen before.

It was the form that had pierced Gae Hong-cheon’s heart.

Though it was a higher level than the sword Ha Mu-baek had displayed at the time, he recognized it as the same technique.

Wi Ji-gun’s gaze briefly turned toward the center of Ma-rim.

Spreading his ki sense wide once more.

He nodded.

“We need to finish this place quickly first.”

After muttering this, Wi Ji-gun glanced at Ha Seol-ran.

Then lightly swung his sword.

The Eighth Severing Mugeuk unfolded once more, beginning to sweep and devastate the surroundings.

Dam Mu-heun, who had just blocked a strike from the Dark Blood Sword Corpse rushing toward him, looked at that scene with disbelieving eyes.

“As expected, the master of a monster is also a monster…”

As he muttered this.

The Dark Blood Jiangshi in front of him disappeared, swept away by Wi Ji-gun’s sword.

“M-Master…”

Ha Seol-ran stamped her feet anxiously at Wi Ji-gun’s appearance.

Because her ki sense was telling her about her master’s current condition.

He was pouring out all the internal energy in his body.

When this terrifying sword flow ended.

Master would have used up all the internal energy in his entire body.

Then the new monsters currently rushing toward this place…

Ha Seol-ran, who had been watching her master and the front with such worry.

Started.

“Huh?”

As she let out that small murmur.

Wi Ji-gun’s sword was racing toward its peak.
