Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 527
Only Noblemtl
527. Jungwon Ilgeom (中原一劍) (3)
Kang Yu-chan, whose voice trailed off slightly, looked somewhere.
Hanbin took his words.
“I can also feel the energy of the Taegeuk.”
“That means?”
“It’s a story about a volcano and a shaman.”
Hanbin, who had finished speaking, also looked over the wall.
Two new models flew over the fence.
Swish. Swish.
The two landed lightly in front of Hanbin like butterflies.
At that moment, one of them came out and threw a winning ticket at Kang Yu-chan.
“Greetings, sir.”
“Yeah, it seems like you’re doing well too. Plum Blossom Sword Association.”
“Don’t tease me, Sa-suk.”
The man folded his hands politely again.
When he put his hands together, his sleeves fluttered and the plum blossom petals in full bloom rustled.
He was none other than Seo Jae-oh, the plum blossom inspector of the Hwasan faction.
A lucky man who keeps getting more and more plum blossoms embroidered on his sleeves after meeting Hanbin.
The man who is now better known to the world by his nickname, Plum Blossom Swordsman, is none other than Seo Jae-oh.
Then someone coughs next to me.
“hmm.”
Everyone’s eyes were on him.
At that moment, Kang Yu-chan gave him a lottery ticket.
“Hyunmun Daehyeop! It’s been a while since I’ve seen you.”
“Hmm, you finally saw me.”
“No. I made a mistake because I was briefly overcome with emotion after seeing you for the first time in a long time.”
When Kang Yu-chan laughed brightly, Hyeon-mun waved his hand.
“Don’t be rude.”
“I’m sorry, Grandmaster of Hyeonmun.”
Kang Yu-chan bowed his head politely once again.
It was similar to the animal kingdom where hierarchy was strictly observed.
That’s understandable, since the distribution and age of this position were clear.
To be exact, Hyeonmun was the highest adult here.
The person who was rumored to have a bad temper was none other than Hyeonmun.
A troublemaker of all people who caused so many accidents that even the shaman sent him away, telling him not to return until he had attained enlightenment.
Kang Yu-chan’s shoulders shook slightly.
Although his expression didn’t show it, his body was reacting instinctively.
Hyeonmun, who was also a shaman priest, was someone that even Kang Yuchan found difficult.
While Kang Yoo-chan was getting nervous, Hyun-moon looked at Han-bin expressionlessly.
Hanbin quietly avoided eye contact.
It was because he knew why Hyunmun was looking at him with such a serious expression.
Hyunmun, who had been watching for a while, asked.
“Why is there such a wind blowing on the road that Prince Peng is walking on?”
“Perhaps it is a tree branch that does not sway well in the wind.”
“A tree branch… … .”
“How can a tree branch move by itself?”
“… … .”
“What can I do when the wind blows and shakes me even when I try to stay still?”
“I was afraid that you would become like this… … . I told you to stay at Sacheondangga for seven years!”
“The tree was trying to take root, but the carpenter cut it down and moved it.”
Hanbin smiled brightly.
Hanbin tried to stay still, but the family and the emperor said that he had been moved.
“Haha, should I say that this is a foolish answer? You seem to know the Tao better than the Taoist.”
“Let’s leave it as is.”
“I appreciate your humility, but this was a reckless act. You should have kept the death penalty’s request.”
“I will remain quiet from now on.”
“Hmm. Don’t forget that you are my benefactor. If anyone harms you, our shaman will not sit idly by.”
“thank you.”
Hanbin bowed his head slightly.
Kang Yu-chan narrowed his eyes as if he was nervous about their conversation.
This is because a strong bond was felt between Hanbin and the Mudangpa.
As I thought about this, a sense of crisis crept up my spine.
What kind of place is Gangho?
The most basic one is the law of self-respect.
The strong survive and the weak are eliminated.
This also applies to the old school.
Long ago, there was even a story that volcanoes were the stomachs of shamans.
But the current evaluation was below that of a shaman.
Although Kang Yu-chan left Hwasan and lived in the palace, his affection for the Hwasan faction did not cool down.
The volcano faction was like his hometown.
But I couldn’t stand the thought that the Volcano faction was being pushed out by the Mudang faction.
Shamans take all the good things?
Of course, the good thing here was Hanbin.
Anyone could see that Hanbin would become the best in the world in the future.
In the next twenty years? No, in ten years, he would become the best in the world, a talent recognized by the martial arts world.
Looking at the current situation, it seemed like Hanbin was being taken away by the nonpartisan faction.
There, Hyeonmun, who belonged to the highest rank in the martial arts world, called Hanbin Peng Gongja.
Normally, it would be proper to speak to him in a polite tone, such as “you” or “so-hyeop.”
Kang Yu-chan gritted his teeth.
He quickly nodded to Seo Jae-oh.
It was a signal to join their conversation.
Seo Jae-oh was quite flustered by Kang Yu-chan’s sudden change in gaze.
But Seo Jae-oh was a man with a keen eye for detail.
The intuition inherited from a merchant family did not disappear when he became a plum blossom inspector.
Seo Jae-oh coughed in vain.
“hmm.”
Thanks to that, the conversation was interrupted for a moment.
Both Hyunmun and Hanbin looked at Seo Jae-oh.
Hanbin tilted his head and asked.
“What’s going on? Plum Blossom Sword Association.”
“We want to make sure that our volcano is safe, Prince Peng.”
“What does that mean?”
“Our volcano is also on Peng Gongzi’s side.”
“Haha, thank you.”
Hanbin looked at Seo Jae-oh as if he couldn’t believe it.
In fact, Hanbin couldn’t figure out why Seo Jae-oh was acting like that.
When he felt that Hanbin’s reaction was lukewarm, Kang Yuchan intervened.
“Oh, from now on, call me hyung!”
“Brother?”
“Hasn’t it been a long time since I met you? From now on, instead of calling me ‘daein,’ just call me ‘hyung.’”
“Oh, I understand. Sir.”
“Haha. Just call me hyung.”
“Yes, that’s right. Large.”
As Hanbin reluctantly smiled, Kang Yuchan smiled and looked at Hyeonmun.
There was no change in the expression on Hyunmun’s face.
It’s like a giant stone that hasn’t moved.
It was when Kang Yu-chan was observing.
The expression on the gate changed.
A few wrinkles appeared on his face, as if an earthquake had occurred.
Everyone tilted their heads and looked at the lips of the gatekeeper.
Hyunmun opened his mouth as if responding to their gaze.
“I have something important to say.”
Kang Yu-chan asked cautiously at Hyeon-mun’s words.
“Shall we step aside for you, Grandmaster?”
“I would appreciate it if you would do that.”
At Hyeonmun’s words, Kang Yu-chan and Seo Jae-oh quietly left the place.
They hadn’t completely disappeared, but they were so far apart that they looked like dots.
Kang Yu-chan stared at Han-bin and Hyeon-mun in that state.
He could hear the conversation between Hanbin and Hyeonmun.
Kang Yu-chan’s hearing improved dramatically while he was in the Royal Palace.
As I focused on the events and struggles in the palace, my senses developed.
Kang Yu-chan pricked up his ears.
If we were to judge only by hearing, Kang Yu-chan would have to be considered comparable to the Three Masters of Murim.
Kang Yu-chan’s eyes widened as he quietly listened to the conversation.
* * *
Hanbin’s eyes also grew wide as he was talking.
“What do you mean? Apostasy?”
“It’s literally true.”
“This is my first time hearing about it.”
Hanbin looked up at the sky quietly.
Hyunmun was now talking about the realm of martial arts.
What he was discussing was a slightly different perspective, at the level of martial arts.
Hyunmun was discussing the martial arts realm called Talkyung.
It was said that the Taegeuk Sword Master of the previous generation had accidentally caught the martial arts realm called Talkyung.
I heard that beyond the wall of Hwagyeong, there is a realm called Hyeon-gyeong.
In the current martial arts world, there was no one who had reached the realm of Hyeon-gyeong.
What kind of state is this, when it is neither a state of reality nor a state of escape?
Hyunmun said that it was a framework that broke away from existing martial arts.
At that moment, Hanbin recalled the seven steps that Taegeuk Sword Master had taken.
Hanbin continued speaking carefully.
“Could it be that the seven steps that the Taegeuk Sword Master left behind last time were the martial arts of Talkyung?”
“That’s right, Prince Peng.”
“hmm.”
“By any chance… … .”
“Tell me.”
“If you learn that martial art, will you reach the realm of transcendence?”
“Have you mastered those seven steps?”
“I don’t know exactly, but I have interpreted the seven steps that the Taegeuk Sword Master left behind.”
“The executioner said this. If you interpret those seven steps, you have to find seven more steps hidden behind them.”
“I also found the seven hidden steps.”
“… … .”
“… … .”
“You said you found the seven hidden steps? Peng Gongzi.”
“Maybe.”
Hanbin nodded and thought of the Cheonra Shinsunbo.
The seven steps of the Cheonra Shinseonbo that I got from Jiseon were also included.
If he had not mastered the seven steps that the Taegeuk Sword Master had left behind, he would not have been able to fully understand his Heavenly God’s Secret Treasure.
then?
Could it be that the seven steps hidden behind what Hyunmun said are referring to the Cheonra Shinsunbo?
In fact, if that’s true, then the martial arts realm called Talkyung can be understood.
Hanbin’s Yongrin Sword Technique was not an ordinary martial art.
Hanbin was able to emit black energy from the tip of his sword with only a first-class level of internal energy.
It was the imminent outbreak of the Yongrin Sword Technique.
Hanbin was able to surpass the speed of a top-class swordsman with his first-class internal energy.
It was a lightning strike of the Yongrin Sword Technique.
This was the question that always came to mind while learning the Yongrin Sword Technique.
Can the level of martial arts displayed through the Yongrin Sword Technique be evaluated on the same level as existing martial arts?
It was impossible.
In fact, the Yongrin Sword Technique was a martial art that could not be taught to anyone.
Among them, some martial arts in the fusion section could be passed on, but the first techniques such as Lightning Strike, Ilchok Jikbal, and Seongdonggyeoksu could not be passed on to others.
At that moment, Hyunmun shook his head.
“That can’t be. My executioner, Taegeukgeomje, has predicted ten years ahead.”
“Ten years?”
“That’s the period when the death penalty was at the end of its quest. In other words, you evaluated him at the same level as the Taegeuk Sword Master himself.”
“I have just one question, Grand Master Hyeonmun.”
“Tell me, Prince Peng.”
“Why on earth did you teach me such martial arts?”
Although the subject was missing, there was no way Hyunmun wouldn’t know who it was referring to.
It was clear that he was talking about a shaman or a Taegeuk swordsman.
Hyunmun answered.
“He said it was for the sake of Kangho. He said he would tell you the details when you reached that level.”
“Then I want to know now. As I said, it seems like I have already set foot on the herbivore behind the seven steps.”
“Can you prove it?”
“How can I prove it?”
“Try to break me.”
“Beat the Great Swordsman, that’s… … .”
“I will throw away my sword and go by the recommended method.”
Hyunmun pointed to Wol-ah.
Hanbin tilted his head at that sight.
“Would that be okay?”
“That’s enough.”
Hyunmun nodded and showed his momentum.
In an instant, the dust that had settled on the floor spread out in all directions, centered around him.
Swish!
Hyunmun, who had shown incredible momentum, quietly looked at Hanbin.
The intention of the statement was simple. Just because you are a master of swordsmanship doesn’t mean you are also a master of martial arts.
This is due to several factors, including physical condition, attack intervals, etc.
Hyunmun was a martial artist who specialized in martial arts.
If Hanbin, who had dug a well called swordsmanship, could defeat him, it would be considered that he had reached the realm of transcendence that the death penalty spoke of.
The result is something that goes beyond the conventional wisdom of martial arts.
Anyway, Hyunmun’s intention in showing off his momentum like this was because he didn’t want to hurt Hanbin.
Hyunmun tilted his head.
Hanbin’s expression was a little strange.
He was unable to even make eye contact with himself and was just rolling his eyes here and there.
In Hyunmun’s view, there was only one reason.
Hyunmun asked.
“Are you not confident? If you are not confident, you can just ignore my offer. Peng Gongzi.”
“No. Please do me a favor.”
Hanbin quietly bowed his head.
