The Namgung family.
His power was truly formidable, as he had released his hidden power and even obtained the abilities of Asura Pacheonmu.
He surpassed his father, the Sword King, and if it weren’t for Cheonma and Cheonhwa, he would have been able to truly rule the world.
“How, this power… … !”
However, the problem was that I was born in the same era as those two.
Even though Cheonma was defeated, Cheonhwa remained.
Even though he had mastered the secrets of the Asura Pacheonmu and mastered the Emperor Sword to its extreme, that bastard’s black sword could not reach Cheonhwa.
No, it didn’t even reach the level of Cheonma.
I even thought that it would have been better if I had spent more time honing my martial arts skills instead of scheming and plotting behind the scenes.
As with Cheonma, the waves of Asura Pacheonmu were capable of countering the Cheonum Shingong, but because the one performing it lacked understanding, it did not show the same intensity as before.
This was the case even though the creation of the world, let alone destruction, had not taken place.
“Is this all? Sacrificing countless people and even stealing their intelligence is the result?”
That’s why Cheonhwa’s eyes were so cold.
At first, I was surprised at how much power he had secretly built up, but after dealing with him, I understood.
That power is like a sand castle built without foundation.
Traces of the Absorbing Technique and the Explosives that I discovered sometime ago.
The bastard absorbed all the powers that he had taken from the demon’s ability, extracting the power of the veins and transporting them somewhere.
I don’t know if he used the Absorption Method or another similar method, but it was clear that he had forcibly built it up and broken through the realm.
Compared to the level of internal energy that reached the extreme of Hwagyeong, the use of internal energy and the sophistication of the first technique were poor.
Properly, I meant that it wasn’t a power that I had gained on my own.
“Shut up! I am Namgung Se-ga-ju! I am the leader of the martial arts world! The king of swords and the ruler of the martial arts world… …!”
“I’d rather be the Sword King than someone like you.”
Kwakwakwakwang!
Namgung Cheonmyeong desperately resisted and unleashed the Emperor’s Sword style swords, but was powerless.
All of my sword power was scattered, and my body was torn apart and toyed with by the sound waves of the Heavenly Flower.
Cheonhwa cruelly destroyed him, as if she wasn’t going to kill him easily, but rather let him die in the most miserable and helpless state possible.
He adjusted it so that it would intentionally inflict damage but not be fatal, and he perfectly suppressed the sword that the bastard extended.
I was going to play with him until his energy ran out and he couldn’t move a finger, and then I was going to chop his body into pieces and throw it to the wild animals.
“Kuaaaaaaah!”
Eventually, even the innate energy is extracted.
At this point, he had a fit as if he was going to kill Cheonhwa somehow, but nothing changed.
No matter how many times I swung, no matter how much energy and qi I pulled out, I couldn’t reach it.
Even though I didn’t bother to use something like the wind god to dodge it and just took all the power head-on, it was like that.
“Leader?”
“What on earth is going on… … .”
At that sight, the people of the Murim Alliance who were watching the two also tilted their heads.
The conversation between the two is unknown, and although Cheonhwa was embarrassed because he went out to Namgung Cheonmyeong first, no one moved or emitted energy to save him.
Because Bukgungyeon and the spirits blocked their path.
They didn’t know the circumstances either, but they had faith.
It was an absolute belief that Cheonhwa would not have attacked him for no reason.
That’s why, by raising their energy, the three of them were able to suppress all the martial artists of the martial arts alliance.
On the other hand, when all three emperors were dead and only the Overlord and the Poisonous King remained, excluding Cheonhwa, there was no one on the Murim Alliance side who could overcome Bukgungyeon, who was emitting energy and qi waves comparable to the three emperors, and the two spirits with peak power.
So I watched for a while, but as Namgung Cheonmyeong’s condition gradually became strange, I started to have doubts.
Is it really right to help him?
It is no exaggeration to say that Cheonhwa, who defeated Cheonma and the demons and single-handedly defeated the Demonic Cult, was the first to leave after some conversation, so I began to wonder whether it was right to reject him and take the side of the leader.
“Help me! This guy is trying to harm me! Stop this guy’s wicked scheme to take over the Central Plains on behalf of the Heavenly Horse… …!”
Meanwhile, Namgung Cheonmyeong’s chattering words did not reach my ears.
I don’t know what to do with Cheonhwa, who seems to have already regained his strength, and I’m not sure if it’s right for everyone to join forces and drive out Cheonhwa, who has accomplished great things without any evidence.
Of course, the biggest concern and problem is the absolute power of Cheonhwa and Bukgungyeon.
“These useless things!”
In the end, Namgung Cheonmyeong exploded with anger.
When the idea of using them to buy time somehow and come up with a clever plan didn’t work, even the look in his eyes completely changed.
As I waved my arms in a gesture full of venom and malice, something strange happened.
“Stop playing! If you don’t stop, we’ll all die!”
Bulging bulging
Some of the martial artists of the Murim Alliance, or rather a considerable number of them, began to gradually swell up.
His body swelled to the point where it was hard to believe he was human, and his internal energy became unstable to the point where his skin was on the verge of tearing.
A violent person.
They were the bombers that Namgung Cheonmyeong had planted in advance.
They took away the martial arts of the Bokma and placed the Bokhyeol people, who were created by stealing the energy of countless warriors and veins, all over the place.
Originally, it was intended to be used to deal with the masters by self-destructing when the situation was not favorable during the battle with the Demonic Cult, but it is now used differently.
It is used as a tool to threaten to destroy the Murim Alliance and demand Cheonhwa’s surrender.
It was a cruel judgment that if you don’t help yourself, they will use you in some other way.
“Try it.”
“What?”
Hostage situation.
But I misjudged the person.
Cheonhwa knew about the explosives, but he knew just how powerful those explosions were and how much damage each one of them would cause, so what did he want?
Even if they suffer great damage, even if they are annihilated, what does that have to do with me?
Of course, there were some who had a good relationship with Cheonhwa, but that doesn’t mean he should risk his life for them.
Representative? Consultation?
Because Cheonhwa was far from that kind of thing in the first place.
“Do it. How would I know if you did it alone? If you think about it, just wipe out all the guys involved.”
“profit……!”
And there was no reason to hide such thoughts.
That’s why he was able to openly provoke Namgung Cheonmyeong, and he ground his teeth.
I actually thought it might not work, but I didn’t know it would be this resolute.
‘I have to buy some time somehow… … .’
But if we could buy time, there was still hope.
The explosive’s purpose wasn’t just suicide.
“Freeze!”
As Namgung Cheonmyeong rolled his eyes and tried to find a way out, someone moved a step ahead of him.
It’s Bukgungyeon.
She fired an extreme ice blast at one of the explosives, which was puffing up its body and ready to explode at any moment.
Tsk tsk tsk-!
Then the explosive man froze in an instant.
It wasn’t just that my body was frozen, it was that I was completely trapped in a block of ice.
“Kwaaak!”
Cookies, cookies, cookies, cookies, cookies, cookies!
But it didn’t end with mere bondage.
The moment he was provoked, the explosive ball was activated on its own, causing an explosion.
The ice surrounding him shattered, and the force of the explosion spread in all directions.
“Haat!”
However, there was no damage.
The power that arose from the guy’s body, the explosion was quite large, beyond his level, but his opponent was a seasoned master of firefighting.
That’s because he was the best of the Ice Blood Qigong, and he had the Ice Blood Body.
The explosion was contained and the shock was dissipated.
Bukgungyeon successfully subdued the explosive man.
“Oh my… … !”
Namgung Cheonmyeong was embarrassed by that sight.
It seemed that he had no idea that he could so easily subdue the explosive man and neutralize his power.
Of course, the power was immense, and the number of explosives was in the hundreds, so it would not be easy to subdue and neutralize them one by one, but the fact that it was done was important.
Because the number of people who are scared by it will be greatly reduced, and your losses will be reduced.
“If you have the confidence, give me a chance! When my power is at its full strength… …!”
Thanks to that, Namgung Cheonmyeong, who had become impatient, made his final move.
It was an attempt to take advantage of Cheonhwa’s composure and carelessness.
If Cheonhwa, who is underestimating himself, gives him time, he can absorb all the latent energy within the bodies of those explosives and try to turn the tables.
The calculation was that if I could absorb all of them, or at least 70% of them, I would be able to easily crush Cheonhwa, and if I could absorb just 50% of them, I would be able to secure victory.
Even he himself didn’t mind carrying them all in one body, but now he had no choice.
Instead, if I could just do it, I might be able to exert powers that surpass even Hwagyeong, at least for a moment.
“Why, are you trying to absorb their energy?”
Cheonhwa had already seen through that thought.
Because at this point, that was the only thing he could do.
Otherwise, there would be no reason to keep a close eye on the bomber.
“Try it.”
“… … !”
That’s why I smiled wryly.
When I gave permission to Namgung Cheonmyeong, he ran without looking back.
As he used all his might to spread his magic and made some gestures, the thugs gathered around him.
However, the warriors of the Murim Alliance who were watching it could not move.
Although Bukgungyeon blocked it well, it was not easy to touch it after seeing its enormous explosive power.
Since even the slightest mistake could lead to an explosion, no one could sense something was wrong and try to stop or deal with the explosive man.
“Okay. Okay… … !”
Just a little bit, just a little bit more.
Namgung Cheonmyeong, who barely managed to escape Cheonhwa, extended his hand toward the approaching Bokkeol people.
He prepared to use the Absorption Law and suck out all the internal energy from those close to him.
“If you can.”
Ta-da!
But then, there was a force weighing down on his body.
The sound waves created by Cheonhwa crushed the guy.
“Ugh?!”
Namgung Cheonmyeong’s legs were broken after being hit by that force without any defense.
He hit his head and fell violently to the ground.
“dastardly……!”
“When did I ever say I would let you do it?”
That’s not wrong.
Because Cheonhwa never really said anything like that.
He gave Cheonma a chance, but it was because he also wanted to see Cheonma, who had taken it, and he was also an Asura Pacheonmu.
Because it seemed like it would allow me to test my limits.
There was also an expectation that perhaps I would be able to step into the 11th star of Cheonumsingong, but unfortunately, it did not happen.
Of course, in the same context, a similar opportunity could be given to Namgung Cheonmyeong, but why?
I didn’t want to do that to him, and above all, I couldn’t use Creation or Destruction right away.
Knowing that, I didn’t want to take the risk.
“Wow!”
Glance
But Namgung Cheonmyeong still had a chance.
He was being crushed, but the thugs who had already received orders were coming towards him.
If I could somehow reach it, and if I could just unleash the absorption technique, I could relieve this pressure and try for one last chance.
“Okay. Give me a chance.”
At that time, Cheonhwa changed his mind.
He kept the pressure on him, but he said he would give him another chance, as if he wanted to test him out.
“If you want to absorb it, try it.”
‘Okay. Now just reach out and… …!’
As evidence, I ignored the thugs who were running towards me, and they gathered one by one within arm’s reach.
“If you can.”
“!”
At that moment, not only Namgung Cheonmyeong but also the Bokhyeol people were shocked.
Rather than simply creating a massive pressure that crushed his body like it did to him, it spread a sound that struck him from within.
“You son of a bitch… … !”
Kwakwakwakwakwakwang-!
In response to the shock, the bombers went berserk.
An explosion. And it caused a chain of explosions, continuing the suicide procession right in front of Namgung Cheonmyeong’s eyes.
