Chapter 365

Episode 365.Power of the strong (7)

Easy profit!

The blue blade cut through the air.

The movement of the sword itself was fluid, but its speed and sharpness were not at all suitable for a sword. I could see that the swordsman’s mind was very sharp.

Prosecutor Yeon Ji-pyeong looked ahead with bloodshot eyes.

A fairly large rock was sitting still and laughing at itself.

grasp!

Yeon Ji-pyeong narrowed the distance in an instant and swung his fearsome sword.

Let’s go!

Even though he was in an unstable emotional state, he used sophisticated swordsmanship, cutting through the surface of the rock with an inch-long blade. I could see that the martial arts I had learned and practiced had completely melted into my body.

Babababababaak!

Stone dust bounced off the rock.

Although it was a swordsmanship that stood out for its sharpness and precision, it is difficult to give it a good score in terms of Jingi’s delicacy. If the true energy had been loaded properly, the sword wind would have blown it away before the stone dust even splashed, and if it had been a little sharper, the stone dust itself would not have spattered.

It was evidence that although the technology was familiar, the spirit was being shaken due to psychological problems.

And Yeon Ji-pyeong himself knew that better than anyone else.

‘urg!’

Gritting her teeth, Yeon Ji-pyeong suddenly threw a left hand attack.

Coo!

The rock shook violently and then returned to its original position.

Considering the size of the rock, its weight must be truly incredible. It was truly an incredible feat to be able to throw away half of a rock like that.

However, Yeon Ji-pyeong was not satisfied.

Kaang!

Immediately sink the sword into the ground. It was an act of unknown anger.

“It’s just this much.”

Yeon Ji-pyeong sighed.

“That’s all.”

Looking at it objectively, Yeon Ji-pyeong cannot reach the feet of his father Yeon Wi or even his older brother Yeon Ho-jeong. This is because those two people are true masters who have not only broken through the barrier of wujongjiji, but also walk through the seven and eight divisions of Mount Tai.

However, considering Yeon Ji-pyeong’s age, the fact that he reached the realm of a peak expert at an age when he had not yet reached the age limit was an incredible feat in itself. Yeon Ho-jeong was only quick because he went back the way he had already passed, but he cannot dare compare to Yeon Ji-pyeong in terms of talent.

How high will we be able to reach in the next five or ten years?

Yeon Ji-pyeong may achieve the level of Emperor of Darkness in his forties through sheer effort, which Yeon Ho-jeong achieved in his forties through the greatest martial arts skills, drive without looking back, and immeasurable life and death decisions.

The problem was now.

“Whoop!”

Yeon Ji-pyeong took a deep breath and sat down, looking down at the sword with complicated eyes.

‘weak. I was so weak that I fell. I was such a helpless bastard.’

Since when did it start? It was probably after receiving instruction from his older brother in the Murim Alliance.

Yeon Ji-pyeong was able to look at his talents and skills objectively. He honestly acknowledged that his talent was not ordinary, and thanks to this, he gained the ability to distinguish between the possible and the impossible.

From then on, Yeon Ji-pyeong saw the path he should follow more precisely and clearly.

And because of that, I couldn’t help but feel an even more crushing sense of defeat.

‘With my current skills, I can’t be of any help to my father and brother.’

What if your skills were much better than they are now?

Indeed, if that had been the case, he would have been able to participate in this fight. It certainly must have been so.

Because they are blood relatives? Because you were young? Not like that.

Although he is the older brother, Yeon Ho-jeong was also one of the youngest in this battle. Nevertheless, as if leading the battle was not enough, he came back with a great achievement.

‘In other words, I haven’t been recognized by anyone yet.’

Yeon Ji-pyeong closed his eyes.

‘It’s far.’

The fact that it wasn’t recognized wasn’t sad. The really sad thing was that I was too weak to help my brother.

If he were stronger than he is now and had joined him in this fight, he would have been able to share in some of the work that his older brother had to do.

If that were the case, my brother might not have been lying down. Then, naturally, the deep sorrow on my father’s face could have been removed.

The reason why Yeon Ji-pyeong feels confused and even feels self-destructive.

That’s because I thought that no matter how talented or skilled I was, it was meaningless the moment I couldn’t help my family.

“Is this your first time seeing me?”

Yeon Ji-pyeong was startled by the sudden voice and turned around.

There was a river there.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen you look like that.”

“ah! “Has your brother come?”

I saw a rock located not far from the river.

The rock with dozens of net-like sword images drawn on it looked like a work of art.

Kang Ryang’s eyes suddenly changed.

Chaaaaaa!

With a sharp sword strike, a blue sword light crossed the air.

click.

Before I knew it, Kang Ryang, who swung the sword he had drawn, landed it.

The three stages of retrieving the sword slash were very quick and precise. It was a ghost-like skill that I had never seen from Kang Ryang before.

That wasn’t all.

Jump!

Only after landing the sword did the rock split in half.

It was a straight speculum without a single tremor. The blow was so sharp that the cross section of the cut rock was as clear as glass.

Yeon Ji-pyeong was greatly surprised.

Kang Ryang asked in a calm voice.

“How do you feel? “My one sword.”

“You are amazing.”

“okay? “I still feel like I’m not good enough.”

“no. I have never seen such a fast and precise sword since my father. “You are truly amazing.”

“thanks.”

“But when on earth did you use such sword skills…?!”

“Well, that’s it? “When you lay awake at night worrying about your father and brother?”

Yeon Ji-pyeong’s face hardened slightly.

It wasn’t just a sarcastic remark. It contained an unusual meaning.

Kangryang continued speaking as if nothing had happened.

“You were always calm and polite. But right now you are very shaken. “Even my spirit is shaking with lost anger.”

“….”

“Are you angry at the fact that you couldn’t help your matriarch and older brother?”

His vision was as accurate as that of a ghost.

Yeon Ji-pyeong could not answer yes. It’s true, but for some reason, my lips didn’t separate.

Kang-ryang, who was quietly observing Yeon Ji-pyeong’s expression, suddenly asked.

“I said my current sword is amazing, right?”

“yes? “Oh yes.”

“You might see it that way, but I don’t. Now, I can see the absence of power to support Geomro. “It retains its sharpness, but it lacks the fundamental strength to push through that sharp slash.”

“…!”

“I think it will become difficult to control the speed once I fill up my power. Once you control your speed, it will be difficult to maintain sharpness. “If you work through it step by step, there will come a time when you will run out of strength again.”

Kang Ryang looked up at the sky and smiled.

“There is really no end to kendo. “The sword is martial arts, so martial arts will also have no end.”

After looking up at the sky for a while, he lowered his head and looked at Yeonjipyeong again.

“Jipyeong.”

“…yes.”

“What were you doing?”

“….”

“The head of the family and your older brother have secretly gone to carry out a difficult mission? It’s a worry. It’s also a pity. “If those two people had recognized my strength, if I had been recognized as a fighting force, they would have been worried about whether or not to take me on this mission.”

“….”

“But like you, I wasn’t there for that mission. Because I’m from Heukdo? “I absolutely don’t think so.”

Kang Ryang’s eyes deepened.

“But what does that mean?”

“yes?”

“I wasn’t even treated as a power player. “The skills I am talking about include everything from improvisation skills, practical experience, insight, etc.”

“….”

“In other words, the reason you didn’t take me was not simply because I was weak in martial arts. “It’s because the people themselves are lacking.”

“…!”

Yeon Ji-pyeong’s eyes wavered.

He was painfully aware of his own shortcomings. But I have never thought about it so deeply as Kang Ryang. Sёarᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

I just felt ashamed of myself and was overly worried about my father and older brother. I was angry that my older brother came back injured, and that anger was expressed as strong disappointment in myself.

So what is the intensity?

“But are you just sucking your fingers and worrying about the two people who have already left for dead until they return? “Why didn’t I work harder sooner? Why didn’t I gain enough experience? Should I look at the sky and lament?”

“I…”

“What I did after sending those two away was to cut down on sleep at night and swing my sword.”

Kang Ryang pointed to Yeonjipyeong with his finger.

“If you are taking out your anger on a rock like you are, you are not really swinging a sword. I tried to forget all my worries and anger and just immersed myself in the sword. because? “I need to be a little stronger when it’s time to worry.”

“…!”

“People cannot know the future. In other words, the moment you leave, the people left have no choice but to trust you two. “I will come back alive and I will accomplish my mission.”

“….”

“The problem is me. The key is what I will do other than trusting and waiting for the two of you. worry? If I spend all day worrying about you two, will my mission succeed? “If I don’t pray, will my mission, which would have been successful, end in failure?”

“….”

“Don’t mistake yourself for being an overly great person. Although there may be differences in talent, you and I are ultimately people who risk our lives with a single sword. In that case, you should have invested the time in yourself that will never come back once it passes.”

Kang-ryang pointed to a rock.

“This is the result I have achieved so far. There are still many things I lack, but at least I am better than I was yesterday. “It was a vague sword attack for me 10 days ago, and it was a result that I could not have even imagined a month ago.”

Yeon Ji-pyeong bit her lip.

Gangryang didn’t say don’t do that, you shouldn’t have done that. He simply raised a topic that did not expect an answer and revealed how he behaved in that situation.

Yeon Ji-pyeong was embarrassed.

For the past dozen days, he had been busy not only practicing martial arts but also correcting his confused mind. However, Gangryang immediately faced reality and devoted himself to the sword to achieve the current results.

‘You lost.’

Talent is firewood. The more quality firewood you have, the stronger the fire will burn and the longer it will last.

And the firewood needs a spark to burn, and it is effort that ignites talent.

Effort is not just about selling out. It is fundamental to be able to see your own condition, and furthermore, you must be able to read the surrounding situation so that you can plan when, how, and to what extent you will exert effort.

Kang Ryang did it. Thanks to this, I was able to learn such amazing sword techniques.

Kang-ryang smiled as he looked at Yeon Ji-pyeong’s face.

“I thought I would be happy when the target I was chasing was stopped, but somehow I got a little annoyed.”

“yes?”

“That’s just the way it is.”

Kang-ryang turned around.

“The higher the summit, the more enjoyable it is to climb the mountain. You have become a mountain that was conquered by me a dozen days ago. “Now you’ve collapsed to the point where you can’t even interest me.”

“…!”

“Become a big mountain again. Become the highest mountain in the world and set my eyes on fire. “I will also become a great mountain that can ignite your heart and look down upon the world.”

Life bloomed in Yeon Ji-pyeong’s eyes.
