Chapter 358
Episode 358: Only one weakness (1)
Namgunghyeon, the grand duke of the Namgung family.
He, who was scheduled to inherit the position of head of the family, was an absolute expert who had reached the level of perfection.
Such a great person was now sitting helplessly and dying.
‘Where on earth did it go wrong?…’
Cheongeomdae, the best of the Namgung family, was absurdly destroyed.
I still can’t believe what happened here.
Even at this moment, it felt like I was dreaming.
‘I wasn’t coming here in the first place.’
His eyes filled with remorse began to close after three days.
I endured the injustice until the end, but now I have given up all hope.
It was a time when my entire body was losing strength in the quiet silence.
“Grand Duke! Come to your senses!”
Are you hearing auditory hallucinations? Namgoonghyeon’s eyes slowly opened at the familiar voice.
Soon, a liveliness that had never existed before began to appear in his eyes.
Isn’t Nam Gung-seong, the unit leader of Cheongeomdae, crying right in front of his eyes?
“You’re alive, Seong-ah….”
“No! Forgive me for being late.”
“Why are you still here?”
“I went down to ask for help and got lost, but heaven helped me and I found benefactors.”
“A benefactor?”
Namgungseong moved aside and introduced the people standing behind him.
“It’s a yin-yang twin monster.”
For Namgung-hyeon, one of the leaders of the Murim Alliance, they were like natural enemies.
Frightened, he stretched out the sword he was holding in his hand and shuddered.
“…Why is the yin-yang twin monster here?”
It was not Namgungseong who did not know his feelings. Because I went through the same situation.
Nangongseong quickly reassured the Grand Duke.
“Do not worry. “You just came to look for the Millennium Lunar New Year flower, and you have no ill feelings toward us.”
Namgung-hyeon, who was sitting helplessly, looked at the yin-yang twin monsters one by one and said.
“The Millennium New Year Flower is not something that humans can take, so it would be better to give it up.”
Yooseol asked as if he couldn’t understand.
“why?”
“It’s guarded by a fearsome being. “Can’t you see the way I look?”
Even at a glance, it seemed clear that Nam Gung-hyeon was a great expert.
His whole body was covered in wounds.
In particular, his left arm looked tattered, as if it had been torn off by something.
It was by no means a sight that had been inflicted on a person.
“Is the handshake really protecting the flower?”
“I don’t know if it was a handshake or what, but he was a scary guy with the head of a dragon with horns and the body as sleek as a tiger.”
As Yu Jin-san listened to the description, something came to mind.
“…giraffe?”
Kirin (麒麟). It was a legendary beast known as the leader among divine beasts.
Of course, no one has actually seen it, but it appears often in folk tales, so it was famous even among the general public.
“It’s a giraffe. “Maybe it’s true.”
Yoo Seol’s curiosity grew in a conversation that only the two of them knew about.
“I’m curious~ I want to see you soon too.”
“If you look at it in person, you won’t hear that sound. “Its entire body was covered in thick scales, and even with a sword sword, you couldn’t even make a scratch on it.”
What is Geomgang (劍罡)? It is a crystal of the purest energy that can be released with a sword and cuts through any metal like tofu.
You couldn’t even make a scratch with that kind of sword? If what Namgung-hyeon said was true, it was usually not a serious problem.
Jinsan Yu, who was watching from behind, said with a dark complexion.
“baby. Why don’t we just get back from here? “It’s not too late.”
“Grandpa, what do you mean? Do you know how much it costs? “You can never give up.”
“But if your sword skills don’t work at all, there’s no way to defeat it.”
Yu Seol asked, clenching his walnut-like fists.
“Are my fists weaker than the sword?”
Yu Jin-san thought for a moment and then shook his head horizontally.
Haven’t you seen the power of the Wind Profound Fist firsthand?
I thought that maybe there was some possibility.
“It’s not like that, but it’s because it doesn’t feel right. So, don’t overdo it and fight, but if you find yourself at a disadvantage, retreat.”
“okay.”
That was the answer, but the granddaughter’s face was already showing a solemn expression.
It was the will and determination to never back down.
Yu Jin-san shook his head excitedly and asked Nam Gung-hyeon.
“Which direction should I go?”
He, who was leaning helplessly, pointed to a high peak with his chin.
“It’s at the top of the peak above the clouds. “It’s not far from here.”
“I understand. “I will finish it soon and come rescue you, so you can wait here.”
“Come back alive.”
At that time, Jinsan Yu and Seol Yu were about to turn their steps.
Namgungseong, the unit leader of Cheongeomdae, called out in a sorrowful voice.
“…Yanggoek Daekhyeop!”
Namgungseong had the face of a puppy that was about to poop.
It wasn’t Eugene San who couldn’t figure out what he wanted.
As he was rummaging around in his arms, he ‘poofed’ the steamed bun he had brought with him.
“I’m sorry. “I forgot for a moment.”
“Thank you!”
It was food to feed Namgoonghyeon, who must have starved for several days.
The loyalty of the commander of the unit to assist the Archduke until the end was not an easy sight to see.
Jinsan Yu smiled slightly and turned his back.
There was no reason to hesitate anymore.
Namgung-hyeon sent a final warning to the yin-yang twin monsters heading towards the top.
“Beware of its sharp claws and long, pointed tail.”
Yu Jin-san answered by gently raising one hand behind his back.
Immediately afterwards, Jo-Son’s steps rapidly accelerated.
Ta-ta-tat-!
There was no hesitation in racing towards the summit.
“Let’s just finish it off and come back.”
“Yes!”
As he neared the top, Zhao Son pulled out the main spear from his back at the same time.
In a moment, you will face him.
Soon, the two new models passed the last hill and flew up.
Taaa-!
The yin-yang twin monsters standing tall on a high rock in the highlands looked around.
Everywhere in the world was hazy due to the thick snow fog.
Because the visibility was short, it was impossible to see far away, but a master who has reached the level does not rely solely on vision.
The flow of energy emitted from the entire body began to explore the shape of the basin.
The summit that was confirmed in this way was in the form of a flat area with a depression like a crater.
And I felt something very strong in the center.
“I can feel it from here too. “There must be a thousand-year snow lotus flower in the center.”
“Yeah, let’s go quickly.”
Joson walked slowly in the direction of the flowers, shoulder to shoulder.
After a while, I started walking while being wary of my surroundings.
Not long after, their steps stopped at the same time.
“Do you see that over there!?”
From somewhere in the snow fog, two red eyes were glaring at this place.
He was probably the one who attacked the masters of the Namgung family.
Yu Seol nodded and said.
“Get ready, grandpa.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Joson started evasive action by leaping left and right.
Quang-!!
Something fell on the spot where they were a moment ago, and a snowstorm rose up.
Soon I was able to clearly see its identity.
Slightly larger than a horse. And it was a nimble four-legged beast with the head of a dragon with horns.
It had white claws on its ankles, and the end of its tail had something sharp like an awl.
‘It’s just like what I saw in a picture somewhere. ‘Is it really a giraffe?’
At that time, the giraffe seemed to be angry and blew out thick cold air like fog from its nostrils.
Huuuuk-!
The feeling of intimidation was incredible.
Yu Seol sensed something was unusual and sent a warning to her grandfather.
“Be careful, grandpa!”
At that moment, the giraffe’s tail, as long as a scorpion, flew towards Yusul like a flash.
Paang-!!
While Yoo Seol lays his upper body back and avoids the attack. On the other side, Yu Jin-san rushed at the Kirin and struck its side with a spear.
Kwaang-!
“Ugh!”
What is this pain that feels like my wrist is breaking?
The attack was successful, but did not cause any damage.
Even though Chang Gang was used, it failed to pierce the scales.
Meanwhile, the giraffe turned its body once and swung its tail at Yujinsan again.
It was an incredible speed that I had never experienced before.
Unable to dodge, he swung the dragon lance with all his might.
Quang-!!
“Tsk!”
It was only a single hit, and Yu Jin-san’s new model bounced off three pieces.
But that wasn’t the end.
Isn’t the giraffe chasing after you at an incredible speed with its mouth wide open?
It felt like if a body were cut into by blade-like teeth, it would be cut off in an instant, including a golden Buddha statue.
‘This is a disaster.’
A chill ran down Yu Jin-san’s spine.
At the time I was getting confused about how to stop it.
Yuseol flew in like a beam of light from the other side and delivered a side kick to the giraffe’s body.
Kwasik-!!
The giraffe fell away in shock and disappeared again into the snow fog.
“Grandpa, are you okay?”
“OK. “Don’t let your guard down.”
Joson turned his back to me and searched for the guy’s location.
However, no matter how much I looked around, there was only a whitish blizzard and I couldn’t find anything anywhere.
At that time, the tension gradually increases.
Yu Seol shouted urgently.
“stomach!”
That was the signal.
Yugasalpungchang Gu Chosik Maengryong Seungcheonse (猛龍昇天勢).
The two twin dragon spears rose up at the same time, spewing out powerful energy towards the sky.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!!
A giraffe that was hit by a bundle of steel lost its balance in the air and fell.
Kuung-!
However, it didn’t take even a single breath for him to get up again.
It didn’t give the slightest shock.
No, it only seemed to make me even more angry.
Huuuuk-!!
A thick, cold air constantly poured out from the giraffe’s nose.
He stamped his feet a few times and started rushing in.
The yin-yang twin monsters that were waiting in advance simultaneously stepped on the whirlwind method.
Slurp-!
Josun, who split to the left and right, swung his spear at the guy’s side again.
Kang-! Kakaan-!
Eugene Mountain once. And Yoo Seol hit two additional attacks.
But no attack could hit him.
As the situation continued, the fight naturally became longer.
Kwakwang-!! Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!!
A snow storm followed the place where the yin-yang twin monsters and giraffes were entangled.
The fighting was so fierce that avalanches occurred in various parts of the snowy mountain.
There was no end to fighting like this.
I hope you fight with all your might.
Jin-san Yu, whose stamina was slowly starting to deplete, shouted urgently.
“Do something, baby!”
Whirly lick-!!
It was the sound of Yuseol’s dragon fire spear flying into the air.
I didn’t miss it. He performed fishing techniques to gain time to use the Wind Sensit Fist.
A tremendous amount of energy began to swirl through the small fist filled with thunderbolt.
Rumbling!
Surprised by the enormous flow of energy, the giraffe tried to attack Yuseol intensively, but failed every time.
This is because Yujin Mountain and Yonghwachang, floating in the air, were clinging to each other like crazy.
And the preparation time for Feng Xin Fist did not take very long.
A powerful roar of a lion burst out from Yu Seol’s mouth as he rushed towards the giraffe.
“Kyaayayap!!”
Kwaaaaang-!!!
With a huge explosion, the snow that had accumulated around the area spewed out like a tsunami far into the distance.
At the same time, the first moan came from the giraffe’s mouth.
Shut up!
The Wind Heart Fist, which consumes as much as three pounds of internal power with a single punch.
It was the most powerful fighting technique in history that gave me goosebumps every time I saw it.
The giraffe, which was convulsing, fell helplessly to the side as if its entire body had lost all strength.
Slurp-!
“You did it! “My granddaughter did very, very well!”
Jinsan Yu raised both his hands in approval.
But that joy did not last long.
This was because the granddaughter was shaking her head horizontally with a dark expression.
“Not yet…”
Unbelievably, the giraffe was wiggling and trying to get up again.
I couldn’t help but feel creepy at that sight.
Jinsan Yu couldn’t keep his mouth shut, as if he was appalled.
“How can I defeat that thing?”
Could it be that he is an immortal being? I really couldn’t believe it when I saw it.
The giraffe’s defensive ability was truly invincible.
“Huh…”
Yooseol also seemed frustrated.
This was the first time Yu Jin-san had ever seen his granddaughter sigh in front of an enemy.
Wasn’t he a confident child even in the face of any powerful enemy?
“This should have been enough. “Let’s withdraw quickly before he regains his strength.”
“no. Just wait there, grandpa. “I’ll give it a try somehow.”
“What are you planning to do?”
I couldn’t continue the conversation anymore.
The giraffe, which had suddenly regained its strength, was standing tall and glaring at Yu Seol.
The guy seemed very angry and was breathing heavily.
He slowly waved both hands as if he would not give up on the rumors.
“I heard it from a prophetess. You said you fell from heaven, right? “Now my sister will take you up to the sky again.”
The distance between Yuseol and Kirin is six chapters.
The two looked at each other and strengthened their resolve, like generals on the battlefield preparing to discuss their daily stories.
Soon the giraffe lowered its head and erected its sharp horns.
On the other hand, Yoo Seol was just raising his hands, which did not even hold weapons, to eye level.
And by the time one more breath had passed.
As if they had made a promise, Yu Seol and Kirin rushed towards each other like lightning.
Taaa-!!
The collision occurred in the blink of an eye.
Quang-!!
Yu Seol’s hands were holding the horns of a giraffe with its head down.
It looked like two buffaloes competing for strength.
It looked like they were in a tight relationship with each other, without any hesitation.
Jin-san Yu, who was watching, tried to help but couldn’t.
“No, grandpa! “Wait there!”
“…?”
Eugene-san was confused, but he must have something in mind.
First, I decided to watch a little more.
And then. Yuseol’s left foot began to dig into the ground.
Kkguguguk-!!
At the same time, anger spewed out from Yu Seol’s mouth.
“Aaaah!!”
At that moment, the giraffe began to take a step back.
Surprisingly, he pushes Shinsoo with force.
The giraffe, which was embarrassed, finally raised its awl-like tail.
“Watch your tail!”
I had already noticed the rumors.
Its tail, raised like a scorpion, came down to its head and continued to stab Yuseol.
However, Yoo Seol calmly avoided it by shaking his body from side to side even while holding his horn.
That was when about a dozen attacks had passed.
At one point, Yu Seol’s hand succeeded in snatching the giraffe’s tail.
Buuuk-!
Yuseol pulled the tail all the way, wrapped it around the guy’s horn, and shouted.
“Now is the time, Grandpa! “This is the weak spot!!”
Yu Jin-san, who did not understand his granddaughter’s signals, did not know what to do.
“You mean weakness to medicine?”
When the grandfather hesitated, Yuseol let out a yell as if he was frustrated.
“Come quickly and stab me in the ass!!”
It was only after the tail went up that I could see clearly. There was a hole there that had never been seen before.
I don’t know how long my granddaughter can tie him up. There was no time to hesitate.
Yoo Jin-san gritted his teeth and started running like crazy while holding the dragon’s spear.
Ta-ta-tat-!
