“Stop!!!”
The Heavenly Dragon Corps that had caused the Heavenly Dragon Sword Strike were all subdued in a single day.
They lost consciousness and rolled around like corpses, and this time there was not a single exception.
“Well done. You did a good job!”
Although they were in a truly miserable state, the unmanned people who soon appeared embraced their unconscious bodies and praised them.
Even though we lost, we bought some time.
Because all the other armed forces, those who could be considered the true power of the Jeongcheon Alliance, were able to gather together.
In fact, several armed forces gathered around Cheonhwa while he was still standing, forming a siege net.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a battle between two sides, as neither side was at an easy position.
Although their individual martial arts skills may have been inferior to those of the Heavenly Dragons, they had been properly trained and were capable of stopping anyone, and they were confident that if other masters joined forces during that time, they could defeat even the masters of Hwagyeong.
“What a bunch of useless things you’ve done. What’s the point of raising such idiots?”
But so what?
However, Cheonhwa’s thoughts were very different from theirs.
In the first place, it wasn’t that they were buying time by holding back Cheonhwa’s ankles, but Cheonhwa was the one who allowed it to happen.
I just took the time to find out why they were able to reach a level in a short period of time that couldn’t be achieved with elixirs.
“Is this the bluff of the political party?”
And I thought I knew.
The reason why not just one but all of them could suddenly become top-notch experts.
It wasn’t because they monopolized the elixir, had a good teacher, or had several masters share the same teachings.
Someone really forced them into the top tier.
By forcibly guiding the true energy, a hole was made in the upper chamber and something called the spirit eye was created.
It was a crazy thing that could have easily made them stupid in the process, but they tried it and succeeded.
In Cheonhwa’s eyes, it seemed like he was raising a bunch of scoundrels who were just superficial.
“Well, it’s my guys’ loss.”
If you think about it, it would actually be a loss.
The ones who are in charge of their true skills are probably the masters of their families and sects.
It must have been a true martial art and a kind of martial arts major.
At least, it seemed highly probable that it was a bizarre Great Law that was forcibly achieved by a master who was at the peak of maturity or by masters who were prepared to fall to the beginning or below the peak of maturity, and who breathed life into them and guided them.
Otherwise, even if they had acquired some skills, it would have been difficult for them to experience a proper rise in their level.
At least half of them should have become idiots or lost their lives or martial arts skills to be normal.
Maybe the elixir went to them and not to them.
However, it may not be an easy task to recover the ground you have already reached.
Also, it was clear that even if I recovered my internal energy, my physical condition would not be the same as before.
So, it may not be considered an advantage in the overall evaluation, but they must have made that decision because they think differently.
It seemed more important to them to show off their strength and show off their swagger by showing those who were once the latecomers reach the peak of their power.
These were things that Cheonhwa, who was an extreme pragmatist, could not understand at first.
“The Heavenly Dragon Sword… … First, I need to meet the guy who made that.”
I was interested in them for a while, but now I’ve completely lost interest in them.
Instead, they turned their attention to the Dragon Sword they had finally shown.
Although the ones who unfolded it were so incompetent that they couldn’t display their full power, it was because they were handling the same wave techniques that the elite of the Tang family and the disciples of Kyungcheon Black Emperor had unfolded.
That means, whoever created that craft may have a pretty deep understanding of the mysteries of waves.
It was an opportunity to learn how this secret was learned, how it was secretly spread, and who it was used to oppose and defend against.
“You are already surrounded. Drop your weapons and surrender!”
To do that, you first need to get rid of all the clutter surrounding you.
Cheonhwa glanced around at them, urging them to surrender, and lightly placed her hand on the Noeryeonggeum again.
The sight startled each force and they almost jumped out, but perhaps because they had also seen Cheonhwa’s incredible power, they seemed to want to avoid clashing if possible.
But it’s not a heavenly flower.
If necessary, you have to knock it down.
Even if it’s all of these.
“Everyone stop.”
At that moment, a voice with a heavy resonance was heard from somewhere.
He pressed down on the swordsmen of the unmanned soldiers who seemed ready to come out at any moment, sitting down on everyone.
“Mr. Building Owner?”
The one who came down between them and Cheonhwa like a god was the old man who had once entered Cheonhwa’s territory and laid down while spying on Namgung Se-ga.
“Hey, Your Majesty!”
And, in the martial arts world, Namgung Se, known as the Sword King, was also the strongest master.
“How are you, young musician? No. Should I call you a demon?”
Just as he recognized Cheonhwa, Cheonhwa also had a way of guessing his identity.
Because everything about him, from the way he used his internal energy to the prayers he had, that had infiltrated his territory, told me that he was by no means an ordinary old building owner.
However, I wasn’t sure that he was the Sword King.
At that time, I couldn’t fully gauge the level of the current martial arts world, and I didn’t know to what extent the Namgung family’s masters had martial arts skills, so I only thought that he could be the Sword King, or one of the elders.
But now I know.
It was not because other martial artists spoke of his nickname, but because the aura and temperament he gave off were like those of a master who had reached the highest level.
“Are you going to stop it?”
“For now, that’s the way it is. Since we’ve decided to make an enemy of Jeongcheonmaeng, shouldn’t we at least prevent the children from carrying firewood and jumping into the fire? However, I don’t think I can easily subdue you. At the very least, this place will be reduced to ashes, and I might even lose face as I get older. So, wouldn’t you show some respect to this old man? It may sound like a fool, but as I get older, this kind of respect becomes quite important. Please give me some concessions.”
“That would be difficult, wouldn’t it? I learned a lot from my master, but I didn’t learn anything like surrender!”
He didn’t hide his aura, and even groaned softly as he asked Cheonhwa to give in, but Cheonhwa wasn’t the one to listen.
“I’m not asking you to surrender. I’m just asking you to think about this old man’s dignity. In short, how about we make a bet?”
“A bet?”
“Since you have a rather grand nickname of Sword King and have a certain status here, let’s do this. If you accept my sword, I will forget all the fuss we’ve had so far and do whatever you want.”
“Hmm… … .”
“Your Majesty the Sword!”
“How can you possibly condone the plight of such a thug!”
However, the Sword King’s proposal was not an invitation to surrender.
He already has his own reputation to lose, and if he were to continue to clash, it would obviously cause great damage to Jeongcheonmaeng, so he wants to mediate.
Through the method of making a bet with yourself.
When Cheonhwa looked thoughtful for a moment at those words, others around him also rose up.
It seems like the two are already acquainted, so it seems like the Sword King is trying to turn a blind eye to it.
“Now, do you not trust my sword?”
“Ah, no. That’s not it… … !”
“No way! I believe it. But in this case… … .”
“Then shut up. Those who can’t even tell the difference between themselves and others are just talking… … .”
However, the Sword King firmly cut off their complaints.
He also didn’t like the fact that he was talking nonsense without even knowing that his name was almost written in the fool’s register just a moment ago, even though he had saved his life.
The Sword King, who usually smiled and listened to the words of lower-ranking warriors with a calm demeanor, appeared so strong that no one dared speak to him anymore.
He treated them comfortably, but in terms of distribution of power, status, and military power, the Sword King was a figure who was far removed from them.
Even if he had taken the situation into consideration and let the demon go, there would have been no one here who could say anything to him.
Unless the Taegeuk Sword Master or the Plum Blossom Sword Master appears.
“Doesn’t that seem too easy?”
At that moment, an absurd sound came out of Cheonhwa’s mouth.
It is quite an easy task to obtain the Sword of the Sword King.
Everyone’s conviction hardened at those words.
That there was some kind of transaction or communication between the two.
“Hehehe. Is that so? Then that would be a good lesson for me too. Then take it.”
“Well, that’s right!”
However, when the Sword King laughed again and raised his sword, everyone’s thoughts changed.
Top tax.
All it took was a single movement of raising his sword high toward the sky, and the air changed.
I had no choice but to completely erase any thought that he had proposed this bet in order to save Cheonhwa.
“Hey, back off!”
“Get as far away as you can! Hurry up!!”
Emperor’s sword type.
Because it was a sword that resembled the sky.
Not only did he look up at the sky with awe, he also quickly pushed back those who were weak in martial arts.
Although it was hard to believe that Cheonhwa could block it, I had a gut feeling that the aftermath of the sword strike alone was so overwhelming that it could cause fatal damage to those who were inexperienced.
“You said you wanted to see the world, not the sky. Then can you show me your sky too?”
“Let’s do that. It’s not that difficult.”
While the surroundings became noisy, the Sword King slowly opened his mouth to Cheonhwa.
It is a story about showing the sky as Cheonhwa saw it, recalling a conversation the two had once had.
Cheonhwa said that he wanted to see the world, not the sky, but there must be a sky in that world too.
At first glance, it may seem like a request to limit power, but in reality, it wasn’t quite like that.
Even for Cheonhwa, it was difficult to capture the world in one sound.
Among them, choosing to express the appearance of the sky was enough to exert power close to full power, so he nodded lightly and placed his hand on the wind chime.
Although he could express the sky with anything he had, the wind chime and pipa were the best instruments to play the vast and ever-changing sky.
“Then, I’ll go first.”
As Cheonhwa finished preparing, the Sword King’s sword began to move slowly.
It seemed like he was only lowering his sword very slowly rather than striking, but the real masters could tell.
That there is a terrible power within it.
It was like a sword in the sky.
It was filled with a powerful aura that did not go well with slowness, like the sword of the Heavenly Emperor that rules the sky.
Darararang-
At that moment, Cheonhwa’s hand also began to move.
It was a very quick hand movement, in contrast to the slow swordsman.

The Wind Chimes
Wind chimes
However, it does not take the form of an attack in itself.
As he lightly plucked the strings as if releasing his hand, the energy of the wind spirits filled his entire body.
Hands and body move lightly yet powerfully, ready to perform at their best.
“The last of the Emperor’s Sword types. It’s called the Emperor’s True Light Heavenly Sword.”
At that moment, the Sword King introduced his own diet.
The final moments of the Emperor’s Sword.
It was an absolute swordsmanship that ended everything with a single sword, in contrast to the crude martial arts of Namgung Se-ga-ju, who sprayed sword energy from nine fogs.
The power, the idea, the change and the pressure contained within resemble the sky, so when facing it, it would feel as if the sky was falling down on them.
Cheonhwado was able to witness the scene in its entirety.
‘Shin Seung told me to be careful… … It wasn’t an empty promise.’
At that moment, Cheonhwa’s eyes also changed.
Although he spoke lightly, the swordsmanship he unleashed and the power and temperament contained within it were something that even he could not take lightly.
Any sword strike from the Sword King would be like that, but this was the ultimate strike.
A blow that pours everything into it without a thought for the future.
Since the bet was on, there was no way to block it in advance and weaken its power, so all one could do, all one had to do, was to accept its full power.
‘You’re like a sinister old man.’
I don’t feel any desire to live or kill.
However, the force was so strong that even a slight push could split your body in two or tear you to pieces and kill you.
That’s why Cheonhwa thought that maybe this was a test.
I didn’t know that I had discovered the characteristic and weakness of the sound hole that only shows its greatest power when the sound is properly built up.
Maybe, contrary to his smiling face, he is trying to hide himself in this place.
‘Let’s give it a try.’
But Cheonhwa was not afraid or gave up.
The time given to him was short, but the power was not unmatched.
He quickly plucked out the strings of the wind chime, releasing the power of the wind chimes embedded in his entire body.

He started playing the sky against the sword that resembled the sky.
