“Tsk!”
The face of Nie Liang, the elder of the Sun Palace, was horribly distorted.
‘What on earth are these guys?’
His small eyes wavered faintly. It can’t be like this. This cannot happen.
In essence, their martial arts skills are those that burn people. As long as we are human, we are bound to feel rejection and fear from burning flames.
Whether a person with unwavering faith, a cruel killer, or any expert, he or she would inevitably flinch when faced with the heat of Yeoyanggong. Due to the nature of hot air, even if you block the tension itself, you cannot avoid all the heat that comes with it.
Even if you run wild, all that’s left is a golden-brown body. So she should step down. That is not only natural, it is a common sense response.
But these crazy people are completely ignoring that common sense.
“Damn it! “It’s hot!”
The red-hot tip of the sword flew into Nie Liang’s face along with a swear word. Her mouth was screaming, and her face was actually distorted, but the sword strike was cool and calm.
‘How can this be?’
I thought all I had to do was stop it.
If they cook the already exhausted things properly, the cliff will collapse on its own, and all they have to do is pull the body out through the path already prepared.
How did something that was so easy become like this?
“Aaaahhh!”
They are even being pushed back. I could clearly feel the confusion around me. In particular, those who lacked experience were unable to demonstrate their skills due to the urgency.
I always laughed at this situation, but now the sun sign was being forced into such a situation.
‘volcano’. Their momentum even strengthened Nie Liang’s body.
“Get out of the way, you bastard!”
‘danger… … .’
When Nie Liang saw the curly-haired young man running towards him with shining eyes, he unconsciously took a step back. It was as if his momentum was suppressed before he could compete with his skills.
It was that moment.
“This shameless bastard!”
“100 million!”
Nie Liang opened his eyes wide.
He suddenly froze like a stone statue and slowly looked back. What I saw at that moment was not the owner of the voice, but a huge sun shining as if it would cover the world.
‘Oh, no!’
Quaaaaaaa!
Immediately afterward, a flying firearm struck Nie Liang. The body instantly melted and began to burn pitch black.
“W-what!”
“damage!”
In the sudden burst of tremendous heat, Yoonjong hurriedly grabbed Jogeol. The two bodies became one and rolled around.
“Aaaaaaaaa!”
Just hearing the painful scream froze the fierce battlefield for an instant. Amidst the scorching scarlet flames, the black body struggled and struggled as if dancing.
“I… … .”
It was a sight that cannot be described even in words of horror.
After a while, when the fire died down, Nie Liang’s body, which was as black as charcoal, fell down.
Passs.
Everyone stared blankly at the sight of people’s bodies being reduced to ashes. Then, I turned my attention to the person walking out from behind the ashes that had been Nie Liang’s body.
“Gu, palace lord!”
“What a pathetic bunch. “How far are you going to lose my face?”
Jinpyeong, the sun palace lord, spit out the words with gritted teeth as if in anger. His eyes flashed like flames.
“volcano? “Only to these guys!”
A molten ball like lava rose from the entire body of the Sun Palace Lord.
“come. “I will send you to hell myself!”
The gatekeeper of the final gate leading to the exit from hell let out a loud roar.
“Gu, palace lord?”
A dumbfounded voice came out of Jo Geol’s mouth.
“It seems he is the owner of the South Sea Palace of the Sun.”
“Is that him?”
Jo Geol asked back as if he couldn’t believe it, but then his face was cruelly distorted.
“Isn’t this so unfair? Our Sobaek is so small and cute, but why is that person… … ?”
“What nonsense are you talking about! “You idiot!”
Yun Jong, who criticized Jo Geol, kept the Sun Palace Lord in check with a tense face. It was funny to think this after mistreating Jo Geol a little while ago, but in fact, I could understand his nonsense at first glance.
‘It’s like the blazing sun.’
The heat emitted by the Sun Palace seemed as if it could even burn the hem of Yunjong’s clothes, who were standing far away. When Yeolyang Qigong reaches its polarity, does it exert this much power?
Yunjong felt his body stiffen from tension.
On the outside, he just looks like an old man of noble status. He seems like a person who would enjoy a leisurely life in a suitable villa.
In short, like the Black Dragon King, he is not a person who can overwhelm the viewer with just his appearance.
However, the enormous and terrifying energy emanating from the body overshadowed its ordinary appearance.
‘Why, at a time like this… … .’
There was no way to stop sighing at the overwhelming darkness.
That road must be opened. A must in order to survive.
But now the wall blocking their path was too high and thick. Even though I was running out of time, I had to overcome a wall that was difficult to overcome.
‘We have to find another way… … .’
At that moment, someone rose above the head of Yoonjong, who was in agony.
“accident!”
Shocked, he reflexively shouted.
When he worries, Yu Iseol takes action. Her body rushed fiercely towards the Sun Palace Lord like a hawk.
“Reckless, accident! now… … .”
“Ah-mi-ta-bull!”
And at that moment, a large lion’s rear exploded next to Jo Geol.
Taaaaaang!
With a striking sound like a huge whip being struck, Hyeyeon’s Hundred Step Divine Fist flew towards the Sun Palace Lord at incredible speed. Operation that focuses on speed rather than power. It is a book filled with the will to support Yu Iseol.
In front of you, the Baekbo Shinken unfolded by Shaolin’s Cheongogijae flies, and from above, the deadliest blade in the volcano is aimed at your neck.
This is a situation where anyone would feel threatened.
But the Sun Palace did not even flinch an eyebrow.
“A petty trick!”
Hwaaaaaaaaa!
Soon, an enormous amount of heat energy exploded from both hands of the Sun Palace Lord.
‘What about that?’
Yunjong opened his eyes wide.
The tension emanating from both hands of the Sun Palace Lord was tinged with gold rather than orange. Soon it rolled over like a wave and covered his entire face.
Wooooow!
The power of Baekbo Shinwon was unable to break through the heat and oxidized. And Yu Iseol, who swung her sword with all her might toward the incoming tension, was unable to overcome the Bantanjigi and bounced back.
“accident!”
widely.
Yu Iseol got down with one knee on the ground, blood dripping from her lips.
“accident! Are you okay?”
“… … are you okay.”
After only exchanging swords, the ends of her hair were scorched and blood flowed back through her mouth.
Literally, in one blow.
“does not make sense… … “It’s history.”
“eww… … .”
Yunjong’s eyes trembled slightly.
‘Is that really possible?’
Not everyone they’ve dealt with so far has been easy.
The power of the Black Dragon King’s work was so strong that they could not even imagine, and the speed of the Heavenly Face Master was so great that the eye could not catch up with it.
Jang Il-so made everyone cringe as a human being, and I got goosebumps just thinking about Godfather Mangeum’s sword, which was all about knowledge.
But that ‘strength’ is different.
How enormous an internal force must be in order to occupy that much space with the force of a few days? That is literally an absolute shield. A blazing shield that burns and kills anyone who even approaches.
Hyeyeon said as if she was in pain.
“South Sea Sun Palace Lord… … I heard that they are royal family for generations. “With the power of the royal family and the power of the palace lord, they monopolize the many elixirs of Im-eup.”
Jo-geol looked at Hye-yeon as if asking what kind of nonsense that was.
“No, does that happen if you eat the elixir like rice? “Didn’t Cheongmyeong say that elixirs don’t mean much beyond a certain level?”
“That’s probably true. “In general.”
“yes?”
“If there is more water than the container, it will overflow. but… … The author is a member of the royal family and was destined to become the lord of the sun sign from birth. “Of course I wouldn’t have made the bowl first.”
“This dirty world. “I should have been born into a rich family.”
“… … “You shouldn’t say things like that, you bastard.”
“What about the monk? “Isn’t the monk also a rich and pampered person in Shaolin?”
“Well, I too come from a street orphan… … .”
“Yes, sorry. “Anyway, I’m the only bad guy you’ll ever meet, just me.”
Yunjong, who was worse than him, was just about to hit him in the back of the head.
“damage!”
At Yu Iseol’s brief shout, everyone rushed in all directions. Almost immediately, a golden tension rushed to where they were.
Wooooow!
There was no binge drinking. The incoming tension was melting the surroundings instead of destroying them. Hit by the tension, the ground they had been standing on a moment ago turned red and then burned black.
“… … oh my god.”
Jo Geol opened his mouth wide and was astonished.
In that brief moment, the ground burned up. What would happen if a person was hit by that much heat? Even if the body is surrounded by inner strength, can a human body made of flesh and blood be able to fully handle that?
“These are people who rarely know manners.”
The Sun Palace Lord frowned and glared at them.
“How dare you make jokes in front of me?”
Those eyes were extremely arrogant, as if they were standing in the sky.
But strangely enough, in Jo Geol’s eyes, the arrogance did not seem excessive. No, on the contrary, it looked extremely natural.
“Oh, seeing you think like this, I guess I’m a commoner. Slave spirit to the core… … .”
“What kind of idle talk are you talking about, you bastard!”
“Keueuung.”
Jo Geol let out a groan.
“Palace lord! These are trivial and mean things. “These are not things the palace lord would deal with directly.”
“I am afraid that my precious jade body may be damaged! Please fix it!”
“We will take care of this place.”
The guards who came rushing in frightenedly begged and dissuaded the Sun Palace Lord as if they were ready to fall flat on their faces. But all they received in return were cold stares and contempt.
“What are you going to do?”
“Gu, palace lord.”
“These pathetic bastards. “How much more will you have to humiliate me before I will be relieved of my senses!”
As the wrath of the Sun Palace Lord poured out, the guardians turned pale.
They knew the Lord of the Sun very well as they served him right by his side. It is not common for Sun Palace Lord Jinpyeong to be this angry.
In fact, from the Sun sign owner’s perspective, it was entirely worth it.
If this had been Im-eup, he would not have been humiliated by Jang Il-so, who was just a commoner. It was not enough to receive instructions from Jang Il-so, a low-class citizen, and he would never have even bowed his head.
But what if you can’t even do this properly?
I couldn’t even imagine how much humiliation and shame he would receive from Jang Il-so. The Sun Palace, who was born to stand above others, could never accept such a situation.
So even if he personally takes on this mission… … . No, this proposal must succeed. For Im-eup, for his sun sign, and even for himself!
The hem of his golden clothes began to flutter violently as if hit by a typhoon.
“Stay back. “Unless you want to die too!”
The guards were frightened by the tremendous heat emanating from them and retreated left and right. If they were around me, they too would be reduced to charcoal.
The Sun Palace lord took steps toward the volcano, covering his entire body with enormous heat-yang qigong. It wasn’t enough to just stop them, they were so fierce that it seemed like they were going to burn them all to death.
“Vulgar things. Rude… … “What’s more, you don’t even know the topic!”
The swordsmen of the volcano retreated without realizing it.
I felt like my soul was being taken away just by facing how intense the heat was. Even though I knew I shouldn’t back down, instinctive fear and rejection grabbed me by the back of my neck.
I know that I can only survive by moving forward and opening a path. But if the road is covered with hell-like flames, would you really be willing to jump in?
Jo Geol clenched her teeth so that her jaw muscles bulged.
“What should I do, death sentence?”
“It’s me… … .”
“Thinking is the death penalty’s job! “How are we supposed to deal with a bastard like that?”
Instead of answering, Yoonjong bit his lower lip.
“Is there no way?”
“It has to be there.”
There is a way to fight any opponent. Cheongmyeong informed them of that fact. but… … .
“What is it?”
“Internal power is never infinite. Because it is consumed anyway. “No matter how great the power it has, there is no way it can continuously emit that much tension.”
“So?”
“So originally… … “We have to drag it into a war of attrition.”
“… … “It’s going to spin, really.”
Jo Geol’s face suddenly darkened.
There was nothing wrong with what Yoonjong said. Surely that is the best option.
However, the current volcano is in a position where time cannot be lost. Rather, one o’clock is urgent.
There are weaknesses, but you cannot exploit them. Doesn’t the world call such a being invincible?
Jo Geol thought urgently, clenching her hands tightly to make the blood disappear.
‘No, no. ‘Something has to be done!’
He is now the vanguard of the volcano. Even if it is difficult and difficult, he must open the way. Because that is his role and value.
But I can’t think of a way to connect.
The moment you fight against it, you will turn into charcoal. Your whole body will burn out. What can you do against such an enemy?
‘rather… … .’
Would you rather jump off that cliff? Wouldn’t it be more likely than dealing with the author?
Of course I know. As the road they opened was long, the road they had to open again was endlessly long.
But rather than knocking on that wall of despair… … .
It was the moment when Jogeol stopped and was about to look back.
‘uh?’
A sight caught my eye.
There is a person standing head-on, facing the heat that seems to dry out and burn his entire body just by facing him. The back of the person standing in front of the Sun Palace Lord was firm, without wavering even an inch.
The man’s soft voice reached Jogeol’s frozen ears.
“Whether it is a path of thorns or a pit of fire… … “The resolve was already made a long time ago.”
“buy… … .”
“Can you carry out the important things?” … .”
The volcanic plum sword was aimed at the Sun Palace Lord.
The moment the heated sword was aimed at my face, the sun archer twitched her eyebrows.
“… … “Who are you?”
“Baekcheon.”
“Sa, Sa-suk!”
In the heat that seemed to melt his body, Baekcheon’s eyes were infinitely cold.
“It’s a long story about volcanoes.”
