Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 680
Only Noblemtl
680. Brain Jade (5)
Hanbin narrowed his eyes and looked at Suwoon’s master.
Su-un’s master clasped his drooping hands together, trembling.
“Thank you for saving my life. My name is Hyeondam.”
“That’s it for the greetings. I’d like to ask about the current situation.”
“I don’t really know why I’m here right now… … .”
Hyundam was rather embarrassed.
At that sight, Hanbin continued speaking in a calm voice.
“Then, try to recall your memory right before you lost consciousness.”
“My last memory is the night I was writing a letter in preparation for the Heroes’ Tournament.”
“What happened that day?”
“Nothing happened. I was just writing letters to each sect and clan, and I got tired so I took a short nap.”
“It’s been about two months.”
“Two, two months? What do you mean?”
“I came from Habuk Pengga. I received the letter and came to attend the Heroes’ Conference. The time between the time I got here and the letter arriving at Habuk from the shaman will be roughly two months.”
“I’ve been here for two months?”
“I don’t know. It’s possible that he moved from somewhere else to here.”
“What on earth happened in the past two months?”
“Looking at the Taoist monk, I guess there must have been a lot of things going on with the shaman.”
“Tell me what happened.”
“I don’t know. Let’s find out together. Master, let’s dig into it step by step from now on. Have you ever lost consciousness and opened your eyes in the middle of something?”
“I just opened my eyes.”
“Now? Don’t you remember anything else?”
“I don’t know if it was a dream or reality, but I saw the Grim Reaper. The Grim Reaper even checked my breathing… … . Of course, I don’t remember it exactly.”
“What did you talk to the Grim Reaper?”
“If we had talked, how could I still be in this world? I would have already crossed the Samdo River. However, the face of the grim reaper I saw in my dream was not human.”
“Not a person?”
“I had a rabbit’s face. I’m sorry. Please understand if I talk nonsense. Right now, I only have vague memories of my dreams.”
“It’s not a dream.”
Hanbin caressed his chin.
I thought I had a rough idea of what the situation was.
It was clear that Hyundam was drunk on the wedding pill.
Someone must have been running this place, feeding it enough food to keep it from dying.
If Hyundam had not been unmanned, his body would not have been able to last two months.
“Ku, it’s not a dream… … .”
“Those rabbit masks are the ones who imprisoned the Taoist.”
“Who are they?”
“It’s not who they are, but how many Taoists are caught that is important.”
“What does that mean?”
“I think the Taegeuk Sword Master has been captured.”
“The Taegeuk Sword Master has been captured?”
“Yes, that’s right. He must be somewhere in this prison.”
“That’s impossible. Our Jang Moon-in is one of the Three Masters of Martial Arts. There’s no way someone like that would be kidnapped by anyone.”
“You were not kidnapped. You were probably locked up yourself.”
“What does that mean?”
“The Taegeuk Sword Master has a weakness. It’s a very big weakness.”
“Our elder brother has no weaknesses.”
“It has weaknesses.”
“Not that I know of.”
“Shall we make a bet?”
After finishing speaking, Hanbin listened to Manwol again.
Then he went back behind Su-un.
Everyone’s mouth was open at what happened in the blink of an eye.
It was so bad that even Akpilseung was turned into a stone statue.
Then Hanbin continued speaking.
“I hold the life of the Taoist monk Su-un in my hands. What will you do?”
“… … .”
“If I move even one hand, Master Su-un’s head will be cut off. If you want to save Master Su-un, you must do as I say.”
Su-woon just blinked at the unexpected situation.
Hanbin asked again.
“Would you like to follow?”
“Oh, I understand. I will do whatever you say.”
At his words, Hanbin hugged Manwol in his arms.
Then he crouched down in front of Su-un’s master, Hyeon-dam.
“That is your weakness, Master Hyeondam.”
“Just wait a minute. What the heck… … .”
“Love for your disciples, that is the weakness of the Taegeuk Sword Master. Just like Master Hyeon Dam.”
Hanbin pointed to Hyundam.
Akpilseung let out a gasp at the sight.
“So, aren’t the shaman’s disciples being held captive in the brain prison right now? The Taegeuk Sword Master gave up his resistance because his disciples’ lives were in danger.”
“Roughly… … . But I guess there are a few things missing.”
Hanbin’s tone had changed to a condescending tone.
But it wasn’t awkward at all.
It seemed like I had been speaking to Akpilseung in a relaxed tone for a long time.
As they overcome a life-or-death crisis together, the relationship between Hanbin and Akpilseung is also somewhat established.
Akpilseung tilted his head and asked.
“What is that?”
“It is highly likely that Taegeumgeomje had fallen into an enemy trap before then.”
“What if it’s a trap?”
“The bloodshed I talked about in Baekdokmun.”
“hmm.”
“He must have sensed danger in that situation and sent me a secret letter. If it weren’t for his disciples, he would have chosen death. In some ways, you could say it was fortunate.”
“So how on earth does this game work?”
“In a word, it’s a mess.”
After finishing speaking, Hanbin quietly looked across the dark passageway.
If it were any other time, Su-woon and Hyeon-dam would have drawn their swords after hearing this conversation.
Anyone can see that this is a remark that belittles shamans.
No, it was a criticism of not only the shaman but everyone who attended the hero competition.
If I had said something like that at the Heroes’ Tournament, everyone would have drawn their swords.
However, neither Su-woon nor Hyeon-dam could respond to Han-bin’s words.
Then Hanbin continued speaking.
“Now let’s go find another Taoist master.”
“Shouldn’t we start by looking for the Taegeuk Sword?”
“Do you think that’s possible?”
“What do you mean, my lord?”
Akpilseung’s eyes lit up.
It wasn’t like he was trying to keep his feet out.
In fact, a small whirlpool was swirling inside Akpilseung’s heart.
He was furious at the sight of Hyun-dam’s face, his bones touching.
Food was that important to Akpilseung.
Hanbin tilted his head at Akpilseung’s serious gaze and continued speaking.
“Do you know where the evil footnote is?”
“How would I know? You have to find it, my lord.”
“How would I know? This is my first time here too.”
“It seems to me that you are familiar with the machinery of this place.”
“The food you eat in the world of martial arts will never go away.”
“Kal-bap? Come to think of it, it hasn’t been that long since you came out to the world of martial arts.”
Akpilseung tilted his head.
In fact, the person who knew Hanbin better than anyone else was Akpilseung.
The first warrior of Habukpengga to be defeated by Hanbin was Akpilseung.
Meeting Hanbin was both a fateful and a fortunate one.
Hanbin said at the expression on Akpilseung’s face.
“Don’t try to know too much, evil footnote.”
“Yes, I understand. But what should we do? Cheonjamsa is gone… … . Won’t there be a problem going back?”
Akpilseung pointed to the silkworms lying on the floor.
Cheonjamsa was built on a huge rock.
It was the very rock that had just rolled over.
Hanbin looked at the rock and said.
“It’s okay, evil footnote.”
“Even if we say it’s okay, wouldn’t Elder Muyeong up there be worried?”
“You don’t have to worry, Master Muyeong. But it seems like you and Master Muyeong have become quite attached.”
“no.”
“While we’re at it, should we move to Shaolin Temple?”
“No, I’m sorry. There’s no place for me there.”
“It seems that Master Muyeong is coveting the skills of the evil footman… … .”
“That’s why I hate it even more. In Shaolin, they only eat grass. I don’t want to work in a restaurant like that.”
“Even though the Ilji Ambassador is your teacher?”
“I don’t like it.”
“Okay, evil footnote.”
Hanbin chuckled.
It seemed like his resolve had become stronger than before.
Hanbin decided to take a breather here for the time being.
There were two choices.
Should I break the giant rock with the True Dragon Sword and then go back the way I came?
Or should we keep moving forward?
That was when.
Hanbin narrowed his eyes and looked somewhere.
What Hanbin was looking at was none other than the empty space where the Yongrin Sword Technique was located.
The Yongrin Sword Technique was now shining.
Of course, only Hanbin can see that light.
The light seemed to be pointing to something.
Hanbin slowly walked in the direction that Yongrin Sword Technique was pointing to.
What the Yongrin Sword Technique pointed to was, surprisingly, a wall.
Hanbin looked closely at the wall.
I was wondering if there might be a hidden passage.
But the passage was not visible.
It wasn’t like there were any marks on the wall.
But there was no way that the Yongrin Sword Technique would provide useless clues.
What on earth could it be?
Hanbin sat down for a moment and sat cross-legged.
Because I needed time to think.
Akpilseung asked at that sight.
“Are you okay?”
“Evil footnote, take a break for a moment. It seems like it won’t be possible to leave here in an hour or two. Let’s have breakfast first.”
“Understood, Your Majesty.”
Akpilseung also sat cross-legged.
Hyundam and Suwoon, who were next to him, also took a moment to catch their breath.
Hanbin, who had confirmed them, quietly closed his eyes.
What is the enlightenment that the Yongrin Sword Technique is trying to convey?
Hanbin quickly used the spell of wisdom.
The number of mosquitoes gradually decreased.
[Wisdom: Ninety-Nine]
[… … ]
Hanbin’s head turned violently.
How much time has passed?
Hanbin’s eyes widened.
Because I found the answer to what the Yongrin Sword Technique refers to.
What the Yongrin Sword Technique pointed to was the passage itself.
A maze of winding passageways.
It seemed like a tactic to trap people, but it might not have been.
Hanbin pictured the route from the passage he first entered to here in his head.
in result!
This passage communicated with the blood vessels.
What this means is that the passageway represents the path along which the energy flows.
The order in which the energy flows out.
And that road.
Putting everything together, it turned out that this passage contained an unidentified secret method.
This passage itself is considered an emergency.
Who did this?
The reason was unknown even to Ji’s dismay.
What was the intention behind making it?
It was an unsolvable mystery as to who created it.
Thinking about it this way, Hanbin began to clearly see the structure of this brain prison.
Each sect has different methods of exercising, but the human body is all the same.
If the brain jade itself was a passage through which true energy passed, then the method of passing through it would definitely be related to the method of un-gi-jo-sik.
If you find the way, getting out will not be a problem, and finding the Taegeuk Sword will now be easy.
Hanbin, who had been worrying, got up from his seat with a serious expression.
Then he tapped Akpilseung on the shoulder while his eyes were closed.
“Evil footnote, wake up?”
“Ah, my lord.”
“What’s with your expression? It’s like you’ve just reached a realization.”
“That’s right. Something important was going on in my head, and then suddenly my lord… … .”
Akpilseung glared at Hanbin with an expression that said he was wronged.
Hanbin laughed.
“You’ve got a look in your eyes that’ll make you want to hit me!”
“no.”
“I think I should go now.”
“Already? I think Master Suun will need a little more time.”
Akpilseung pointed to Suun and his master.
Su-un was breathing energy into his master’s back while resting his back against his chest.
