50. Final Dance (5) – I figured out all four patterns

Like other buildings used by martial artists, Waryongjeon also has its own training ground.

A practice room that is unusually spacious, as befitting a Sega that possesses a martial arts school that uses the Kinesis Sword Technique.

The fourth and final life-or-death decision makers were gathered there.

Dang Se-ryeong and Jegal Hyeon, the parties involved in the life-or-death decision.

Mokjin, Yongjeoksan, Kim Yeonhwa, and Asura Buddha, who are the absolute masters and the ones who have entered the life and death battle.

Other entrants include Zhuge Jiwon, the commander of the Zhuge family, and Sunja.

‘It’s fortunate that at least some people I know came.’

All three absolute masters invited by Jegal Hyun were close to Seolyeong. Sunja looked at them with a much more relieved expression.

However, it didn’t take long to realize that it was a mistake.

“······!”

A gaze that was extremely cold. It wasn’t like this when they had exchanged greetings inside the Waryongjeon, but now that they were facing a life-or-death situation, they were looking at Seolyeong and Jegalhyun with gazes that had literally erased all emotions.

Only then did Sunja realize it. The people in front of her were not just close acquaintances of Mokjin and Seolyeong, but also veterans of the Jeongpa martial arts world and absolute masters who had achieved great success in martial arts.

“I am Lee Mok-jin, who has been entrusted with the supervision and entry of the revenge movement by the Dang Se-ryeong of Sacheon Dangga. From now on, I will proceed with the life-or-death decision between the two people.”

“I am Jegal Jiwon, who was entrusted with the responsibility of attending the revenge event by Jegal Hyeon of Jegal Se-ga. Today, I am here as the attendant for the life and death decision.”

“This is Yongjeoksan, where I joined together with two other masters.”

“I admit it.”

Mokjin nodded while looking at Yongjeoksan, who represented Zhuge Jiwon and the other two people.

Now it was the turn of the parties involved in the life-or-death battle. Seolyeong, standing in the center of the martial arts field facing Jegal Hyun, glared at him and opened her mouth.

“The Tang Dynasty’s Sachon Dangga.”

I demand your life as payment for the destruction of the Sacheondang family, and I request a life-or-death decision.

“Zhuge Xian of the Zhuge Family.”

I agree to the life and death decision.

Mokjin, who confirmed the declarations of the two people, declared in a solemn voice.

“With this, the matter of life and death is settled.”

And immediately after that, he pulled the sword out of its scabbard slightly and flicked the blade with his fingers.

A sharp sword strike cuts through the two people.

As the final battle of life and death began, countless flying knives shot high into the sky from the container behind Serin’s back.

‘I don’t intend to drag it out for long.’

The opponent is a master of the Jegal family who is skilled at achieving victory through countless strategies. He does not want to get caught up in something like a clumsy exploration battle.

Therefore, from the beginning, Dang Se-ryeong displayed the most powerful martial arts she could.

Thunderstorm.

The strongest martial arts she possessed, which overwhelmed the Iron General Hwang Bo-ryung and even made Namgung Su-ryeon, the wall sword master who had overcome the wall of absolute masters, bleed.

‘I’ll destroy it in the first shot with overwhelming power······!’

Under the control of the Kinetic Sword Technique, the scattered arrows high in the sky begin to swirl in a huge circle.

A vortex of iron slowly tightened around the entire smokescreen, as if it were unfolding a space preview and not giving anyone a chance to escape.

Jegal Hyun, standing in the middle, raised his head with an indifferent expression and looked up at the rain clouds that filled the sky.

“Is it a thunderstorm?”

As expected. He hummed softly and raised the Euncheonggang sword he was holding high into the sky.

Then, just like the spirits a moment ago, countless shadows rose into the sky from the kinesis swordsmanship containers on either side of him.

The shape of the weapon was different from the fan blades that the Jegal Se-ga warriors that we had met so far used when performing the Gangmo Fishing Boat Technique. Se-ryeong’s eyes lit up when she saw its appearance.

‘That’s a black iron pen.’

A cluster of Pan-gwan-pil (判官筆), a brush-shaped iron skewer weapon made of black-bronze alloy developed by the Jegal Se-ga clan. Instead of restricting the use of Jegal Se-ga’s proud Ssae-geo-gang-gi, these hidden weapons are equipped with devices specialized for unfolding formations, and are Jegal Hyeon’s unique weapon for unfolding his specialty, the Black-Gang-eo-pil-sul (黑罡馭筆術).

This is the expected response. Since he has been using Kinetic Sword Technique for a long time, that would be the only way to deal with Mancheon Noewoo, who is also a Kinetic Sword Technique martial artist.

‘But it’s too late.’

If you had formed a formation by deploying black iron pens in all directions from the beginning, then it would have been different, but if you hadn’t done so, you wouldn’t have been able to withstand the thunderstorm.

“good······!”

Seolyeong kept her gaze fixed on Jegalhyun so as not to miss his movements and extended her sword towards him. Then, in response, the flying swords that had been swirling in the sky began to fall to the ground all at once.

He doesn’t use delicate control like he does when dealing with Hwang Bo-ryung or Namgung Su-ryeon. He just uses the opportunity to store more internal energy and shoot it downwards.

A group of black iron pens rose outward, as if protecting Jegal Hyun like a hedgehog. And the lightning-filled arrows, pouring down like a shower toward him, clashed in the air.

-!

For a moment, the sound of a flock of birds flying filled the smokehouse.

And the result that unfolded before Serin’s eyes was-.

It was the appearance of Jegal Hyeon, the Seungryongje, standing proudly in the same spot as before, without shedding even a single drop of blood.

“What is this······.”

Seolyeong muttered to herself, not knowing that the Mancheon Thunderstorm, which had poured all its might into overclocking its internal drive, had failed to inflict any damage.

Jegal Hyun looked at her in shock and opened his mouth in a calm voice.

“Even a monkey would figure out a solution if he saw it twice.”

Did you think that you were the only one who could look at unmanned data and devise a method of destruction?

Serin looked at the black iron pens floating around him and his own swords lying helplessly on the floor as if he couldn’t believe his words.

“You didn’t even experience it yourself, and you figured out the method of destruction just by watching the life-or-death video twice······?”

It was nonsense. Especially against the martial arts of the Kinetic Swordsmanship. She knew it because she was the one who designed and used Kinetic Swordsmanship herself.

“Yes······Usually it would be impossible. But isn’t the basis of your martial arts the Mancheonhwawoo of the Sacheondangga?”

“······no way.”

Seolyeong flinched. While researching about Jegal Hyeon in the past, it occurred to him that one of the masters who competed with him during his prime was a master from Sacheondangga.

“I see you noticed.”

Jegal Hyun smiled faintly.

“I have experienced the Mancheonhwawoo many times, and I have studied its destruction method for quite some time. No matter how arranged the season is, its secret is still the original. Do you think it would be difficult to find its destruction method?”

What he was dealing with was a perfected Mancheonhwawoo who had reached the tenth level. So why would he have trouble with something as clumsy as Mancheonnoewoo who had not even reached the fifth level?

From the beginning, Jegal Hyun had never been wary of her name season, Mancheon Noewoo.

He took a step forward towards Se-ryeong, who couldn’t hide her bewildered expression.

“It’s my turn now.”

“She’s the daughter of the Tang family,” Jegal Hyun said to her.

“There is sufficient data on your martial arts.”

Through the life-and-death determination video, he establishes the framework of martial arts, and based on the combat data obtained by Jegal Hee, who fought with Seolyeong, he analyzes the destruction method and creates a response method to go into battle.

If you are stubborn, you will lose a hundred battles.

This is a phrase from the art of war that says, “If you know your enemy and know yourself, you will not be in danger in a hundred battles.”

And he was extremely faithful to that fundamental.

That was the fighting style of Emperor Seungryongje Jegal Hyeon.

“······It won’t be easy.”

Mok-jin, who had been silently watching the life and death of the two people, muttered.

Sunja, who was feeling anxious about the situation that was unfavorable to Seolyeong, looked back at him.

“Is Queen Wang’s situation really that bad?”

“There is a huge difference between knowing the opponent’s martial arts and not knowing them. But he went beyond simply knowing them and studied the methods of destroying Seolyeong’s martial arts. Seolyeong has also studied the methods of destroying Seungryongje’s martial arts, but he is very lacking.”

The data on Jegal Hyun is old, from the time he was active. Also, the data is not detailed enough to be easily obtained. On the other hand, Seolyeong fought fiercely and precariously in most of his battles, without any time to hide his power, so the quality of the data itself is incomparably detailed.

“Seolyeong simply knows how to solve it, but Seungryongje knows the solution as well.”

“But even so, to that extent······.”

“It is because Seolyeong’s training in martial arts is lacking.”

Thanks to the enormous amount of training he had done while receiving Mokjin’s assistance, Seolyeong’s proficiency in martial arts had improved by leaps and bounds. However, the problem was that this proficiency was not even close to reaching the level of the fifth star.

There was nothing that could be done about that part. Only honest effort and time could fill the skill in martial arts. Seolyeong’s talent in martial arts was clearly outstanding, and she didn’t lack effort, but she absolutely lacked the time to practice.

“If the achievement in martial arts was the talent of Chil-seong, or even Se-ryeong, then it would have been easy to overcome it even if it had only reached the level of Fifth Seong. However, Se-ryeong’s current achievement is very lacking.”

Look. Mokjin raised his finger and pointed at the smokescreen.

Jegal Hyun’s sword easily overpowered Seolyeong, who was using the Seomryeosadokgeomsik with the help of the black iron pens. Mok Jin continued speaking while looking at the scene.

“The Seungryongje’s sword is clearly inferior to Seolyeong’s sword. But he is able to launch an attack so easily. Of course, even if he knew the destruction method, he wouldn’t be able to push Seolyeong back like that······.”

Mokjin’s eyes narrowed slightly. His eyes looked at Jegalhyun’s sword and the black iron pens he wielded.

“That······is a formation.”

“What is the formula?”

Yes. Mokjin nodded to Sunja’s words.

“Those black judges are forming a formation and suppressing Seolyeong’s sword.”

Now that I think about it, didn’t the leader of the Baekryongdae use a similar martial art in the past? Mokjin muttered to himself as he thought of the Heavenly King, Jegal Mujun. He didn’t really feel it because it wasn’t very effective against him at the time, but it definitely had some kind of effect.

“I heard that the secret battle formation of the Zhuge family······is actually used by only a small number of warriors.”

Of all people, it had to be Seungryongje. Sunja looked at the training ground with worried eyes and tightly held Mokjin’s collar. Since Seolyeong had defeated even Namgung Su-ryeon, the wall sword saint, she had thought that she would definitely win this life-or-death battle, but in reality, she was on the defensive throughout the life-or-death battle.

“Mr. Mokjin, surely it’s not like Wang Unni is losing······?”

“Well. If it’s a battle, then you don’t know whether you’ll win or lose in a life-or-death situation until the moment the result is announced.”

“······.”

The words of a cold-hearted person who could not offer any consolation. Sunja shut her mouth. She knew that Mokjin was a consistent person when it came to martial arts, but she couldn’t help but feel annoyed.

But unlike what we’ve seen so far, this time it was a little different.

“······!”

A familiar hand lightly patted her shoulder. When Sunja, startled by the unexpected sensation, turned to look at Mokjin, Mokjin spoke to her in a slightly softer voice without taking his eyes off the training ground.

“Trust your sister. There is always a way.”

There are two ways to destroy the formation, Mokjin said in a calm voice.

“One is to dismantle the formation through a classic destruction method.”

And the other one.

“It is to destroy the formation itself with overwhelming martial arts.”
