The World of Sound - Chapter 116
Only Krnovel
‘I hope the master wasn’t involved.’
After finishing cleaning up the surroundings, Cheonhwa’s mind became complicated as he set out to track down the beast again.
I don’t really care about anything else, but the name of the master that Bokma mentioned is what bothers me.
Could it be that Master was somehow involved in this matter?
It was the master who had spent time with him for the past ten years, and it seemed that Bokma had never actually seen his master, so even if the name really was his master, it would be difficult to find a connection.
It was likely just an object of longing, something he had seen before, and his last words did not seem to be an answer to his own question, but rather a rambling of what he wanted to say.
‘If that’s really the case… … .’
However, if the Master really had something to do with them, it couldn’t help but be quite a headache.
There’s no way his master would scold him for causing trouble, and with his master’s abilities, he could have wiped everything out without resorting to such tricks, but he still feels a little reluctant to clash with him.
‘I guess I have no choice but to raise my level. If I want to fight my master, I’ll need to reach at least 11 stars in the Heavenly Sound Divine Skill.’
Of course, the reason for that reluctance was not because he couldn’t commit the act of destroying the knighthood by fighting with his master.
Because if he fought his master right now, it was clear that he would be unilaterally defeated.
Rather, Cheon-hwa was full of thoughts of wanting to meet the master who had been feeding him water and taking all the money he had and give him a beating.
So, although there was a sense of impatience about the rise in real estate, in fact, it was progressing quite smoothly.
There hasn’t been much change in my daily practice, but after experiencing several incidents in the past and encountering things with strong spirit energy, such as the Wind Spirit Tree and the Mother Tree, my understanding of Cheon-eum Shingong has deepened.
If he continued to grow and attain enlightenment and reach the 11th level of the Heavenly Sound Divine Art, he would not be afraid of even his master.
Although he is a master who has already reached the 11th level of Cheon-eum Shingong a long time ago, he is a genius himself.
Cheonhwa was confident that he would not give up if he reached the same level.
“I, Eun-gong.”
While Cheonhwa was lost in thought for a moment, Bukgungyeon, who had been hesitating as if she had something to say, approached him and spoke to him.
“Oh, it’s okay. I just had something to think about.”
“That’s not it… … I think I need to explain it to you because you don’t seem to know much about the taboos of the martial arts world.”
“The taboo of the martial arts world?”
Cheonhwa replied lightly, “Are you worried about me?” but the answer he got was somewhat unexpected.
A sudden taboo in the martial arts world?
Could it be that I made a mistake?
When he looked at her with eyes that demanded an answer, Bukgungyeon opened his mouth again as if he had expected that.
“Do you remember what you did when you were fighting the mob earlier?”
“action?”
What did you do?
Did he fan the old man? Or did he blow up rocks similar to the bomber’s bomber, but different? Or did he kill the bombers?
Bukgungyeon suddenly extended her hand to Cheonhwa, who had an expression on her face that said she had no idea why.
“Finger. You snapped this finger.”
“Why is that?”
“This action itself is considered taboo in the martial arts world. The act itself is not prohibited, but it is not done unless it is a mortal enemy. Tanji. It is because it is an expression of the intention to kill the opponent in the most miserable way.”
“Huh?”
Is snapping your fingers a martial arts taboo?
Is that also an expression of wanting to kill the opponent in a very miserable way?
Cheonhwa’s expression became strange after hearing the explanation.
Why on earth is snapping your fingers an expression for killing someone?
Strange, but if that were an actual taboo, it would mean that at least one person has done it, but there is no way such a thing as martial arts in the world… … .
‘Yes.’
There was something.
If it’s Cheon-eum Shingong, then it’s definitely possible.
Also, if you set your mind to it and prepare sufficiently, it is something that is possible.
It would be possible to annihilate any number of enemies, not just one.
If you use your hands spontaneously right now, you can go from first-class to climax level, and if you take enough time to analyze the unique sound and wavelength of your opponent and then do it, you can kill and break them down from climax to super climax.
The amount of internal energy consumed is indescribable, no matter how much it is.
The reason for dividing the categories here is that the former can certainly resist the latter depending on the depth, enlightenment, and characteristics of the martial arts.
That is why, upon hearing that advice and request, there was only one person that Cheonhwa could think of.
‘What on earth have you been doing?’
If that eccentric old man did something, it couldn’t possibly be ordinary.
Anyway, he’s an old man who doesn’t have a serious sense of humor like you.
Clicking his tongue inwardly, Cheonhwa thought that he should take this opportunity to ask Haomen not only about his current location but also about his master’s past.
“Okay, I understand. I’ll take note.”
“Keek!”
After saying those words, Cheonhwa and his party increased their speed even further.
It wasn’t that difficult to move in pursuit of the beast.
The attack was so powerful that Cheonhwa directly used the energy of the brain spirit to exert his power, so the scent of the brain spirit remained strong.
It wasn’t something that could be erased by washing the body or healing wounds, nor could it be resolved by covering it up with other scents or the like.
Because it is like a brand engraved on the soul, not the body.
So there is no escape.
Unless you use the magic of shrinking to run a thousand miles away or transform yourself to wash away the brain spirit that has infiltrated your body, you will not be able to avoid the brain spirit’s nose whether you hide underground or dive underwater.
“Kiyut!”
“Here? You’re using your brain.”
The place they arrived at was a small village not far from the mountain where Cheonhwa’s old residence was.
He must have hoped that we would think he had run far away, past the village, so he hid inside this small village.
Perhaps he couldn’t go far because of the injuries he received from the brain bruise, but either way, it meant nothing to Cheonhwa.
It’s just that the lifeline has gotten a little longer.
“Whoa! Whoa!”
The village was not large, but it had everything you needed.
It was a place that was not only a place of honor, but also a place of honor.
So, if you wanted to hide, there was plenty of room to hide.
Where on earth could that guy be hiding here?
Cheonhwa hurried her steps with anticipation in her heart, and Noeryeong pointed to one of them.
“military officer?”
It was surprisingly unrelated.
A martial arts instructor who earns money by teaching children who dream of becoming martial artists after giving up their martial arts life, which is difficult to see as a martial arts breakwater.
It was usually a space for those who were below the first class and sold basic skills that were not even on the day of the wedding as self-defense or as a luxury for children to dream.
Of course, that’s true, but since they were once part of the martial arts world, they act like they’re in a safe haven in places where there’s no other way out, and it seemed like that was the case here right now.
“What are you doing? Don’t clean every nook and cranny!”
A man who has barely managed to get a foothold in a second-rate society is showing off his power and authority to his young disciples and servants.
The splendid decoration of the military government did not match the size of the town or its location and atmosphere, which did not seem particularly commercially developed.
It was obvious without having to look too deeply how much the townspeople had been exploited.
“What do the guests coming from Heukmumun think of me! What are you doing there, Sambok? Do you really think you’ll come to your senses only after being hit with a whip!!”
It was obvious just by looking at the way they mobilized the children who came to learn martial arts and made them do things like clean up.
In particular, the things he says while doing so are even more impressive.
“I worked hard to make a place for you so that your talents can be used highly! Do you think I should be the one to receive the favor because I can’t even clean properly?”
He may look like a swindler, but he acts like a child trafficker or human trafficker.
Even the Black Mute that he was talking about was one of the factions, as its name suggests.
At best, he is trying to sell the children he taught to a mediocre black magic sect led by a top-notch martial artist.
Even though the children and their parents must have consented without knowing anything, it was no different from selling them out.
The kids here right now were obviously not talented enough to be coveted by the big wave, and their fundamentals weren’t solid either.
If it is a proper place that aims to train disciples to become masters, there is no reason to take them there, and it is meaningless.
But are we introducing these kids to Heukdobangpa?
Recommend and have them take you as their disciple?
Even in these times?
In the end, there was only one thing I could think of.
It’s just a gathering of people who are worthy of being swordsmen, not disciples.
‘I don’t think so. It was human trafficking. They must have received an introduction fee. And that was from both sides.’
The children were excited by the idea that they could become martial artists without even knowing it, and that they would one day become masters and roam the world of martial arts. Their parents, anxious but also proud, must have brought in introduction fees and bribes.
Not knowing that it might be pushing my child into a corner.
At the same time, he must have received an introduction fee from a place called Heukmumun.
If you look at it that way, this was indeed human trafficking.
‘It’s not my job, though.’
But Cheonhwa got angry at that and didn’t come forward.
That was the time. That was what the kids wanted and what their parents wanted, so whether they told the truth or made a scene here, they would be the only ones who would hear complaints.
In addition, real human trafficking and running away from home, not just tricks like this, were also frequently occurring throughout the Central Plains.
However, I couldn’t do anything because I knew that there was a widespread blind belief that if I became a martial artist, I would be able to make a lot of money and live a luxurious life.
“Who’s there… Are you perhaps from the Black Gate?”
At that moment, someone who appeared to be the head of the military police discovered them.
It was a very unusual behavior since Brain and Moo-oh were together, but it seemed even more special because he quickly changed his face, bowed in a friendly tone, and approached Cheon-hwa.
With that, everyone’s eyes were on them, and only one man did not look at them.
A servant of a military officer called Sambok.
The man who had been moving around in a flustered manner, sweating profusely and following the director’s instructions, only stopped in surprise and didn’t look back at them.
“Kiyut!”
“It’s you.”
At that moment, Cheonhwa smiled at him like an evil spirit.
Even without that suspicious behavior, even without the brain spirit screaming, I could smell the strong scent of the brain spirit from the guy.
“What is that…? Eek!”
Cheonhwa and Sambok moved their bodies almost simultaneously.
He was trying hard to act as if he was not hurt, even though he was clearly in pain from being hit by a thunderbolt, but he raised his internal energy and unleashed his energy.
“S, Sambok, you bastard. What on earth are you doing… …!”
“You’re going to be so dirty until the end!”
It was powerful enough to instantly kill a first-class expert.
The manager, who had been spewing out such things repeatedly but had lost his mind due to the sudden situation, still had not grasped the situation and was about to yell at the guy, but ended up throwing himself and rolling on the floor.
He rolled on the floor in the ugliest of forms, called Naryeotagon, and let out screams or shouts, but even his screams were drowned out by the noise and no one could hear him.
Kuung!
Bang! Bang! Bang!!
As Cheonhwa stomped his feet, the tension he had released began to explode in the air.
In fact, it didn’t matter at all that a guy like that died, because the real target of those forces was the young disciples.
To save my life, to buy time to escape, I sacrificed children.
“Oh my, my dear! How much does that cost!!”
Even though it was a situation where the lives of his disciples could easily be lost, the author, the director, was worried about the officers being destroyed in the aftermath of the clash, and he did not like the sight of them, but he could not let it happen.
Kuung-
Clang!
By stepping on the crowbar and ringing the bell, Cheonhwa neutralized all of the bastard’s attacks.
At the same time, he quickly advanced and chased after the bastard, and shouted at Bukgungyeon out of concern for possible enemy reinforcements.
“I leave it to you!”
The rest was left to her and the two spirits.
It’ll be over once we catch this guy anyway, but just in case.
“Everyone, gather here!”
Bukgungyeon immediately shouted in a voice full of internal energy and gathered the children who were panicking or crying in fear to his side. Thanks to this, Cheonhwa, who was now much more at ease, was able to focus on subduing the bastard instead of trying to fight off tension and such.
“Put the pressure down!”
Cheonumshinkong
Field of resonance
Resonance wave
Boom!
The incense sticks held in both hands collided with each other, creating a loud noise.
It was a wave that had the power to not only tear apart the bastard’s attacks, but also shake and shatter his very existence.
“Ugh?!”
Even though it has reached its peak, it is an attack that is impossible to withstand if you do not know the secrets of the first attack.
If you are exposed to such things, even if you control your strength so that Cheonhwa doesn’t die, your brain and organs will shake, you won’t be able to control your body, and your mind will become dizzy. That would be normal.
“Whew!”
‘also?’
But this time, the bastard held on.
It was clear that spitting out blood and vomit at the same time wasn’t a trivial thing, but somehow he managed to hold on without collapsing.
‘How on earth… … .’
It was unbelievable.
It was impossible.
Even though his level is quite high and his intensity has been lowered, he is still able to withstand the Heavenly Sound Technique that was used to knock him out?
Was the level of martial arts higher than expected?
“I see.”
No, that couldn’t be possible.
Cheonhwa’s eyes sparkled as he examined the bastard again.
I immediately ran to him and took cover behind him.
“Let me see your back!”
No way!
I roughly grabbed the back of the guy who had been hit by a brain blast and tore it open to check inside.
“Did you do something fun?”
The back of the guy who looked dark wasn’t burned by the brainwashing machine.
I thought it was a little strange, but it wasn’t a burn, it was just completely black, as if it had been burned.
And when the bastard’s back was properly exposed, the reason became clear.
A thin suit of armor that generates strange waves on its own.
The fact that he was able to resist the Heavenly Sound Sword twice was all thanks to this armor.
