Chapter 262: Pierce Through The Gaps (3)
I see victory with a single hit.
In his mind, he thought of a martial art which would suit the situation well.
It was with Blood Sea Sword Soul, seventh form.
Although its origin belonged to a quick sword technique, if one classified it based on power alone, they could hear how great it is. This was because depending on the technique of the swordsman and the energy condensed in their hand together, the speed of it would increase proportionally.
Sis!
The light shone as his attack was performed, and the moment something flashed, three or four stabs would be done.
However, in this case, Yo Su-gwang made his hand move slightly differently from before. He changed direction a bit to the right, and the act of stabbing in too deep was eliminated.
He thought it did not matter anyway. It would be good to give the guy in front of him a good injury and a fear of death.
Swish
On the other hand, Seol-Hwi felt his senses work very sensitively the moment the sword moved.
It was intuitive, and he was concentrating on the way the attack would be executed.
“…!”
And his prediction was right. A light suddenly shone on the tip of the sword, which moved slowly at first, and then changed to a swift motion.
It was an unfamiliar experience for him. Even for Seol-Hwi, who had seen numerous martial arts, this quick sword attack without any previous movement, was bizarre.
Swish
The ground Seol-Hwi stood on had cracked.
It was a phenomenon which occurred when he hurriedly moved back to avoid the quick sword, which was faster than he expected.
Shhh
Still, the sword moved like it would pierce the stomach of Seol-Hwi.
Jkjkjk
And with just three centimeters left, it did not get any closer.
Swish.
Along with the shaking of the ground, strange things wrapped themselves around the body of Seol-Hwi, and after that, his movements became swift.
He used the Second Form Illusion.
“This, damn it!”
Jkkkk
When the opponent dodged the attack, Yo Su-gwang gritted his teeth. It was because of the regret that if he attacked a little faster, he could have hit Seol-Hwi.
“Avoided it? Again!”
But there was a bit of fear behind his anger.
His best technique was avoided?
It was a shock, since no one before had managed to escape it, except for his superiors. But this guy did?
Does that mean he was as skilled as his superiors?
That could not be.
Tststs!
Yo Su-gwangraised his internal energy to the limit and decided to cut the guy down without mercy this time
“…!”
He hesitated before using his sword.
Dadadak!
It was because the sound of footsteps were approaching. The instructor was getting close.
“Where are you looking?”
“…!”
Pak
In an instant, Seol-Hwi attacked him. One strong kick forced his opponent back, and then it was followed by two or three kicks in the air.
“You brat!”
Seeing the guy kicking without even using his sword, made Yo Su-gwang furious. He seized the point where he was charging and swung his sword.
Wheing!
“…!”
However, that did not work.
Seol-Hwi lowered his stance and rushed in again, stepping firmly and leaping straight.
Puak!
“…This brat!”
He kicked, aiming at his head. He only kicked because if he used just a little more internal energy, then his head would have flown away.
Tatak.
“…!”
However, at that time, the instructor was already close.
Crack!
Yo Su-gwang gritted his teeth, came to his senses, and then disappeared behind a tree.
“Here you are,”
Said the instructor who had arrived.
Papat!
Yo Su-gwang, who stepped on the tree and ran, looked back to see the instructor Heo smile.
“If I miss you from this distance—”
The instructor estimated roughly the speed of the opponent moving through the forest and the number of leaps.
“I wouldn’t be qualified to be an instructor.”
Pat
After stepping on the few branches, he spun naturally, and then moved.
Shhh!
He used a new technique that used rotation and a foot technique which was as light as a feather and made his body even lighter.
It was a movement which felt like a leopard sprinting across the ground, like a shadow.
Tang! Pang! Sak!
The three branches stretched out everywhere. The footsteps on those unstable tree branches were faster than running on ground.
Tung. Pat!
Along with walking on the sky, another light footwork was used.
It was to accelerate his speed even further.
Tang!
It isn’t going to be easy.
Yo Su-gwang felt sweat running down his face.
The one following behind him, he looked down on the instructor. It was because the troops he had seen up until this point were not at such a high level.
Tung! Tung!
However, looking at the speed and the movement of this one, he was sure there was little to no difference between the two.
Following him was no mere instructor.
It is fine. He doesn’t know who I am. I can just run.
As his heart began to get a bit anxious, he began to make odd promises to himself. There was no specific difference between him and the instructor now.
But when it came to fighting, he was sure to subdue him. The problem was that there was a restriction of fighting.
Papt
There was only a little distance left. Feeling the instructor following him without stopping, Yo Su-gwang made the decision.
Shhh
He began to swing his sword against his face and hands.
Huk.
Even though he was bleeding, he did not stop himself.
Supreme Blood Sura Sword—
It was a martial art of his, and the blood which began to come from his wounds was excessive.
However, Yo Su-gwang had no intention of hesitating now.
The worst case was this. It was because he decided that it was better to kill the instructor than to be discovered and eliminated.
Bastard. Because of that one…
Yo Su-gwang remembered the unknown person.
If it was not for the guy who deliberately outed them, he would not have had to go through such hardships. And if they crossed paths again, he would never let the guy go.
Tak!
Almost there.
As Yo Su-gwang thought, a loud voice came from the surroundings.
“Until there only. Trainee, stop and show your face now, be disqualified.”
Despite the call of the instructor Heo, the opponent did not come out.
Then, instructor Heo moved his gaze to where they were heading to, and soon began to start his footwork again. At that time, when he was moving from branch to branch—
“Kuak!”
He felt the air cutting through, and seeing the aura which was red, he knew what it was.
Chak!
As soon as three of four attacks came out, the instructor wrapped his body in defense.
Kwang!
“Kuak!”
However, it was not a perfect move.
He had not thought that the trainee could handle an instructor like this. Instructor Heo fell to the ground after one hit.
“This guy… ah!”
It was when he raised his head with arms outstretched.
Sh. Sh. Sh.
He could see the blood gushing from around. And this wasn’t a simple defense attack. It was sword shorts.
And this was something one instructor could not handle.
I could avoid…
He forgot the footwork to execute in an instant, no, it was not even something he could avoid.
Swish!
Both his arms were slashed off.
Next, his entire body convulsed, and he fell to the ground just like that.
“Well, no one say it.”
Yo Su-gwang caught his breath.
“To kill an instructor. You are an idiot.”
The guy who drove him into being caught was on the other side.
“…!”
In an instant, Yo Su-gwang’s head became calm.
He saw the one who was observing the scene and, in addition, the one who forced him into making this decision.
Thinking he said,
“Let’s negotiate.”
“…”
“I didn’t even see you yet. If you do that, it is good for you and me too.”
At those words, Seol-Hwi tilted his head.
“Why should it be good for me?”
“Because I don’t have to turn you into an enemy.”
“I don’t care.”
Seol-Hwi smiled and said,
“But I plan to report this. It will be fun to see how you handle it. Will I be taken down right away or will you get to have a chance?”
“You…”
Pick
Yo Su-gwang frowned. At the same time, a vicious red energy flowed from the tip of his sword.
“Do you really have a death wish?”
“Death wish? Me?”
Bang!
Yo Su-gwang swung his sword, and then a bloody red energy passed by Seol-Hwi.
Chachachahcak!
The branches cut into countless pieces.
“I will give you another chance. Another…”
“This is hilarious.”
Tuk
Seol-Hwi kicked the cut off branches with his tip toes and picked them up. Then, he picked one up and pointed the branch at Yo Su-gwang.
“Why are you so scared? A guy who cannot control his internal energy properly and is overdoing it.”
“…”
Sparks flew from the eyes of the two men, and soon Yo Su-gwang smiled.
“Well, one of us will have to die here.”
“…Will that be me? Or you?”
“Hehehehe.”
Tststs
The more Yo Su-gwang was getting angry, the more his internal energy was growing at the tip of his sword.
The Supreme Blood Sura Sword technique was a martial art which uses the owner’s own blood to amplify their internal energy.
He was trying to use his internal energy, which had reached its peak now.
Wheik
On the other hand—
Seol-Hwi was just swinging a branch.
It was definitely an enemy he could not have imagined in the past. However, he did not even feel that excited.
A typhoon formed in an instant.
Perhaps that composure was expressed through the knowledge he obtained through the Taiji Sword.
The stronger the attack, the stronger the opponent. But the core of it felt weak.
So, the twig he caught which could break soon was fine. And the deep red glow of the opponent, he thought he could easily overpower it.
Here he comes.
Pat
Yo Su-gwang kicked off a tree branch and jumped into the air. The movement he used was not so simple.
His body was spinning, and it was getting faster and faster. Seol-Hwi stood holding a tree branch.
And Seol-Hwi blinked his eyes to catch where the guy was moving. But the movement was not so simple.
Before getting close, he fired a bundle of the Supreme Blood Sura Sword.
Chak
A web of bloody shots splashed at him.
Instructor Heo had fallen in vain for this.
Got caught!
As expected, Seol-Hwi only could stare without moving. It was an unavoidable technique.
It was impossible to resist it. It had a bloody nature which heightened its strength. And it was a strong attack which could not be resisted with strength alone.
Swish
What is this…
However, the movement of the opponent caught in the area around Yo Su-gwang was amazing.
The airflow around, it was also trying to counter the attack with the branch.
Yo Su-gwang was sure that the opponent would be attacked by this now, until he saw it—
Swish
The first attack was caught on the branch before it reached Seol-Hwi’s body. Of course, the branch should have been cut, but the direction of the energy was changed.
And it was from there.
The bloody energy which cut through the rocks began to get caught by the branches and then disappeared one by one or moved away.
“What is this…”
And by the time it was over, all the attacks failed.
“Shall I show you a better world?”
Crack
With the words of Seol-Hwi, the ground below began to rise.
“Void Air Movement…?”
Stones were flying everywhere, along with the broken tree branches.
And the flow of the bloody air coming from the center again—
Kwaaang!
Yo Su-gwang did not have time to even come to his senses, and just stared at the situation in awe.
The most harmonious attack with Void Air Movement and Taiji Sword.
