?Episode 677.


    Where does blood flow? (2)


    “The air is nice.”


    The expression on his uniquelynguid face was quite refreshing, and the most impressive thing about it was that he had gone somewhere.


    Myeonggeuk stretched out as if to show off and looked back.


    Each of the twelve hundred red wolves, including Havok, had their murderous eyes shining. Most of them were out of breath, but considering the forced march they had been through so far, it was surprising that they didn’t copse in the middle. It was a stamina worthy of praise.


    Myeonggeuk waved his hand.


    “As the sun begins to set, we will advance slowly. “There will be an onught as soon as night falls, so take care of your physical strength until then.”


    Havok lowered his head.


    “I follow your orders.”


    There is less than one o’clock left until the sun goes down.


    And if you march for more than a day, you will still be tired even if you rest for an entire day, not just one hour. Even if you are a martial arts person who has learned inner skills, you will need to rest for at least half a day to movefortably.


    However, Hyeolrangdan was different.


    Although their level of martial arts was different, at least in terms of physical strength, they were among the best among the fighting units of Saeumgyo. In the first ce, the martial arts they learned were specialized for recovery, and were a type of martial arts that allowed them to hang on to the enemy until the end even if their limbs were blown off.


    Moreover, since he was personally selected by Myeonggeuk, one of the sessors, he possessed a high level ofbat power. If we were talking about 1,200 troops, the number was far more than the number of troops from the Daemun faction.


    “The scenery on the continent is definitely unique.”


    Myeonggeuk smiled and looked around.


    His face was uncharacteristically excited. It might be because the battle is right around the corner.


    “Once we defeat Jongnam, we will have to set up our base here for the time being. “I like it very much.”


    At that time, Habok approached Myeonggeuk and politely held out the bundle.


    “soju. this.”


    Myeonggeuk waved his hand.


    “I’m fine, so please share with those below.”


    “Is that okay?”


    “I feel full just by drinking in the abundant energy of the earth. It’s okay, so distribute it to the leaders. “If they keep their wits about them, the damage will be minimized.”


    “All right.”


    Before the battle, we prepared foods that were nutritious and quick to digest. Of course, most of them were dried.


    It seemed that Myeonggeuk didn’t need that either. It urred to me once again that he was a person ying on a different level.


    ‘Will I really be able to reach that level?’


    As a member of the Hyeolrang Danju, he had a fairly high standing in Saeumgyo. Since he was the head of a unit with 1,200 troops under hismand, it was natural.


    However, it has been more than ten years since Havok reached this level. For ten years,bat capabilities have grown steadily, but they have not been able to break through the limits and rise to the sky.


    Since he is already over 50 years old, it will be difficult for him to break this level and soar.


    ‘But he could be a useful loyalist to someone.’


    His title was Soju (小主), but in his heart, he had already decided to follow him as lord. In the future, when Myeonggeuk surpasses his sessors and ascends to the position of religious leader, he will hold great power as the number one public servant.


    ‘For that to happen, we must win this battle.’


    Fortunately, the enemies would not have noticed Hyeolrangdan’s movements.


    It was a strategy that had been prepared step by step over a very long period of time. And this strategy was prepared by Danju himself by suggesting it to the high-ranking person of Saeumgyo.


    Originally, it was a very meaningless tactic, but from the moment the paradise in Sacheon copsed, the importance of the tactics prepared by the Hyeolrangdan increased significantly.


    ‘Once Shaanxi is breached, a devastating offensive will begin from then on.’


    Havok smiled bitterly.


    ‘If I achieve numerous achievements along with my sessor at the forefront, my position will be solidified even if Soju does not be the leader.’


    That was when Habok was imagining the future andforting the members.


    “…Hmm.”


    Myeonggeuk, who was recovering his original energy by gathering the energy of Mother Nature, suddenly felt a strange feeling.


    ‘what?’


    It feels like someone is watching you from somewhere.


    It didn’t feel like I was only looking at myself. It was close to the feeling that the entire blood troupe, including myself, was being watched.


    ‘…’


    Myeonggeuk’s eyes became serious.


    At least there were no masters who caught his fancy. In other words, there was no owner of this gaze nearby.


    ‘Is it an illusion?’


    There is a high possibility that it is an illusion.


    As far as he knew, there was no one in Shaanxi who had reached this level except Emperor Yin. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that there are some outsiders who hide themselves and pursue their own affairs, but it was meaningless to even consider that in the first ce.


    ‘Or is it some type of magic…?’


    Myeonggeuk shook his head.


    ‘That can’t be possible. ‘I guess it’s my mood.’


    As excited as I was, I also became more sensitive.


    Is someone watching from so far away that you can’t sense your senses? It was impossible.


    ‘….’


    Myeonggeuk, who was looking around with deeply sunken eyes, suddenly felt something and looked back.


    ‘Hyeolrangdan.’


    The power of the Twelve Baek Hyeolrang Dan is enough to overwhelm the Daemun Sect of the Martial Arts.


    That’s howbative and fierce the spirit is. Even when he wasn’t disying his will to kill, most experts were so intimidated that they couldn’t approach him.


    In other words, the intent to kill, which is ingrained in the body as a habit of the rough atmosphere of life, is inherent in all members of the Hyeolrangdan.


    ‘…Probably not.’


    Myeonggeuk’s eyes deepened.


    ‘There is no guarantee that there will not be a stronger expert than me in Shaanxi, but it is difficult to believe that there is someone who would ignore my senses and keep an eye on this ce at this time. ‘Whether it’s martial arts or martial arts.’


    Myeonggeuk was particrly active in top-tier battlespared to other experts of simr level.


    Therefore, he had excellent intuition and his sense of energy was much more sensitive than that of an expert of the same level. There were times when the emotions I felt disyed a supernormal ability that was close to precognition.


    It was thanks to such talent that the Saeum religious leader tried to teach him directly. Although he was a martial artist, he was often able to quickly read approaching threats thanks to his naturally developed upper-level fighting skills.


    ‘I feel ufortable.’


    My excited mind calmed down.


    The excitement that had been building up turned into coldness, and the recovered Jinki instantly swirled around my whole body, sharpening my senses.


    Wooooow.


    The dantian vibrated, speeding up the recovery speed of the true energy to the highest level.


    “Hyeolrangdanju.”


    “Yes, soju.”


    “I will go slowly and look around.”


    “yes?”


    “When you give the signal, let’s go. “Just in case, I will act as an advance guard.”


    Havok was embarrassed.


    “So Soju. There’s no need to do that…”


    Myeonggeuk looked back at Habok.


    In an instant, Havok’splexion turned pale.


    “I obey Soju’s orders!”


    Myeonggeuk turned his head again and walked slowly.


    To him, it was a slow walk, but in reality, it was faster than a normal person sprinting.


    hook!


    In an instant, the distance between them and Hyeolrangdan widened by hundreds of pages.


    Is the legendary Chukjiseongchon simr to this? The level of walking technique was so high that it gave incredible speed to ordinary walking.


    Slurp! Slurp!


    Furthermore, by relying on the walking method, the act of walking remained the same, but the speed became much faster than before.


    Parlk!


    The hem of the clothes fluttered at great speed. The speed was as fast as that of an expert at the peak of his powers performing a new technique.


    It was an amazing martial arts and great realization. It was a martial art that was difficult for even an expert of Seongcheon to easily implement.


    It wasn’t that Myeonggeuk was stronger than Seongcheon’s master.


    He was born with a wide range of abilities, and the martial arts he achieved in the first ce was different from others. It was more mysterious and more magical.


    He was born with a talent for martial arts rather than martial arts. In fact, he came to create a new martial arts bybining the martial arts he learned with the permission of the Saeum sect’s leader.


    The technique he is showing now was the Chakgong secret technique, one of the many martial arts he created himself.


    Slurp.


    How far has it progressed?


    Myeonggeuk, who had just climbed over a peak, stopped.


    hook!


    A strong wind blew from the back. When I stopped walking, the air pressure disappeared and my back felt refreshed.


    Myeonggeuk looked back.


    As I climbed up to the high ce, I could see Hyeolrangdan in the distance. It was so far away that I had to concentrate extremely hard to see it.


    ‘Thirty lire.’


    As he stepped on the ground, he sucked in the negative energy rising from the earth and stimted the dantian. In fact, your energy recovery bes faster as you walk.


    On the other hand, the sparkling feeling has decreased somewhat. With the news of the start of construction, there was no choice but to give up the sensitivity of the senses while maximizing the recovery of true energy.


    ‘nevertheless.’


    Myeonggeuk frowned.


    ‘This strange gaze never leaves.’


    I thought that even if I put an extreme amount of effort into the top fight, it would be simr to what it is now.


    ‘…is this really true?’


    If there was indeed an expert at a simr level to himself and was keeping an eye on this ce, there was a high possibility that it was not because of him, but the existence of the Hyeolrangdan that was giving him information.


    Murderous intent exuding in the air. Due to the pressure that can only be felt in a targeted location.


    If there is someone who has opened the realm of infinity ande into contact with the will of Mother Nature, and if there is someone who has trained their senses to the limit even in that area, it would not be impossible.


    ‘Even if that were really the case, I wouldn’t be able to keep looking.’


    There are limits even to the top battle of an absolute expert who has reached the infinite level. If he were to unleash that ability all the time, he would no longer be a human being but a god.


    ‘I’m confused. ‘How on earth is this going on?…’


    That was then.


    ‘…?!’


    Myeonggeuk’s eyes sparkled.


    ‘has disappeared.’


    I no longer felt the strange gaze that had caused me difort.


    It was like a dream. When this happened, it made me wonder if I was being so sensitive that I got angry for no reason.


    ‘That’s strange. When I think about it, it doesn’t make sense that someone captured me… Even if I try not to pay attention, I keep focusing…’


    At that moment, Myeonggeuk’s eyes wavered.


    ‘Do you really believe that a Seongcheon-level expert exists?’


    Is it really a music festival?


    ‘Even if he were the Emperor of the World, or even the God of Power, he would not be able to make me feel ufortable like this. ‘Maybe it would be better if it was Geomseon (劍仙).’


    Buddhist martial arts and Taoist martial arts were simr but very different.


    If Takmuja, a swordsman who is said to have achieved the pinnacle of martial arts, predicted this attack, it would not be impossible to capture and observe the moment of crisis by disying magical abilities even from hundreds of miles away.


    ‘Unstable.’


    Wooooow!


    Myeonggeuk’s pupils twinkled strangely.


    ‘I’m getting more and more anxious.’


    It was then.


    thud!


    From far away.


    There was an echo resounding from the direction of Jongnam Mountain, an invisible distance.


    Slurp.


    The green trees of Jongnam Mountain had quite an abundance of leaves even in this weather. The wind passing through the leaves created a strange ensemble.


    thud! Ujikkeun!


    The sound got closer and closer.


    Now I know the identity of that sound. It was the roar of huge trees falling across the mountain.


    “…!”


    Myeonggeuk’s prayers became increasingly sharper and tighter.


    thud! Coogung! bang!


    It seemed like a huge battering ram was approaching, sweeping the earth like a gale. The sound, the harsh force, and the mighty fighting spirit were getting closer at an rming speed.


    How much time has passed?


    It can be boring, but as a masterpiece, you can’t help but feel nervous after a period of time has passed.


    Fuuuuuuu!


    Thick smoke rose from the top of the opposite peak.


    There was surprise on Myeonggeuk’s face.


    From the top of the mountain peak, it is a distance of over ten li in a straight line, or a little over 20 ri to reach on foot.


    A horned white tiger with red wings pping was ring in this direction, raising its two fierce snake-like tails.


    Quaaaang!


    Myeonggeuk ran at a frightening speed.
