Chapter 22

‘Fast!’
The speed of the flesh-eaters’ pursuit was many times faster than Bu Eun-sul had thought.
At this rate, he would be attacked from behind and killed without being able to use his hands.
“I have no choice but to fight!
If she couldn’t escape the pursuit, she had no choice but to fight or be killed.
Bang.
Rushing out of the wide-open Red Gate, Bu Eunseol drew his black sword in a lightning-like motion.
Cha-ang!
But the flesh-headed beast was still standing in front of the large gate of the martial hall, as if it had been chasing him all along.
“…….”
Bu Eun-sul and Salgui stared at each other through the red-painted gates.
Beads of sweat broke out on Bu Eun-sul’s forehead as the tension between them continued to build.
But even though she held her stance at half-mast, Salgui didn’t react.
“I see.
Bu Eunseol’s eyes widened as she suddenly realized something.
“The flesh-eaters can’t leave the restricted area!
When she stepped outside the gate, there was no sound to warn her that she was in a restricted area.
It was clear that the restricted area was inside the pavilion at the Hwuwoo checkpoint.
“…….”
Even though Bu Eunseol was staring at him, he didn’t even give her a glance.
The pupils of his eyes, revealed through his mask, seemed to be looking off into the distance.
Sigh.
Taking a cautious step backward, Bu Eunseol fled the place with all her might.
‘All I could do was dodge with all my might.
This was the first time since she had mastered the Beast Sword that she hadn’t been able to find any trace of an attack.
I can’t even guess what weapon it used. Perhaps the flesh-eaters were more skilled than just pikes.
Whistles. A percussion.
Running like a madman, Bu Eunseol arrived at the southern shore of Hell Island.
A black ship was moored in front of the gazebo, and the sun was setting over the horizon.
“Whoa.”
Bu Eunseol’s back was covered in sweat as she stopped running.
The back of her head.
As she stopped walking, a few strands of her hair fell to the ground.
Some of the hair that had been cut off by the flesh-eaters’ attack had fallen back.
“I’m a frog in a well…….”
Picking up the fallen hair, Buunsul’s eyes glowed with despair.
“No, I was a frog that never made it out of the well.”
The frog’s martial arts skills were beyond Bu Eunseol’s comprehension.
Still, the section where his hair was cut was rough.
“But he…….”
The beast that had killed his grandfather had sliced through the living, flesh-and-blood human’s two arms as smooth as glass.
It was a level of mastery that was difficult to achieve…… even for those who had spent decades honing their swords.
Only by surpassing that level could Bu Eunseol seek revenge.
Self.
At that moment, there was a shadowy figure walking towards the setting sun from the other side.
A large sword was slung over his shoulder.
“Buunsun.”
To her surprise, the boy with the knife called out her name.
“I’ve been looking for you for a long time.”
Bu Eunseol stood tall, unmoving.
“Similar.
Similar to the flesh-eaters I saw earlier.
If she moved any faster, that dull knife would cut her in two.
“My name is Fang Yak. I’m a master of blood swords.”
After introducing himself, Fang Yak’s eyes flashed at Bu Eunseol.
“I’ve heard that you’ve mastered the Beast Dao. Is it true?”
A practitioner of the Blood Flame Dao knew her condition?
But Bu Eunseol was not surprised.
There are many clans in this place. If Fang Yaq’s group had an ally in the Hua Wu Sword Gate, it wouldn’t be surprising if they knew his information.
“No need to say more, right?”
Looking at Bu Eunseol’s tightly-clenched mouth, Fang Yak slowly drew the greatsword slung over his shoulder.
Hmph.
What a strange stance.
Fang Yaq raised the great sword above his head like he was chopping firewood. It was a signature move of the Blood Salt Sword Method.
But Bu Eun-sul stood still without even drawing her sword.
He sensed that the moment he drew his sword, a thunderbolt of lightning would strike.
“You already know the Blood Dye Sword Technique.”
The reason it’s so frightening is that it’s timed to strike the moment the opponent moves.
“No.”
Fang Yaq took a deep breath as he studied Bu Eunseol’s stance and nodded.
“With my beastly senses, I’ve already figured out his path. The Beast Road.”
A strange thought flashed through Bu Eunseol’s mind.
Which group did this man belong to? Was he in the same group as the masked man she had encountered earlier?
How could he know the details of not only their appearance but also their abilities?
Just as his mind was wandering, Fang Yak suddenly began to tell him a strange story.
“After all, you must be one of the …… Ten Demon Warriors.”
Sigh.
Suddenly, Fang Yak’s posture changed.
From a bloodthirsty stance that looked like it was about to strike, he suddenly assumed a bizarre stance that looked like he was unfurling a net.
“The sprouts of the Demonic Sect must be nipped in the bud!”
“Demonic sprouts?
At that moment, a thought flashed through Bu Eunseol’s mind like lightning.
-Xing, do you really think that everyone here wants to become a Ten Demon Warrior?
The words were spoken by Seo Jinha, a trainee of the upper echelon who had an amazing sword technique that rivaled his own.
From those words, Bu Eunseol inferred that there were not only martial artists on this island, but also infiltrators from the main sect.
‘This Fang Yak is also…….’
Boom!
At that moment, a cipherun blade stopped on Bu Eunseol’s forehead.
The moment he took a glance, Fang Yaq’s pleasure poured out, and his body reacted before his mind did, preventing him from being eaten.
If she hadn’t mastered the Beast Sword, she would have been killed by this single blow.
“I must let go of my thoughts!
Feng Yu shouted in his heart and gripped the black sword with both hands.
Just a moment ago, Fang Yaq had used a technique other than the Blood Flame Sword Technique, which was proof that he had mastered a technique more powerful than the Blood Flame Sword he had just learned.
“Bu Eunsul, you will die here!”
Boom!
Sword and sword clashed again.
In that instant, a powerful Qi was transmitted from the sword to Feng Shui’s wrist.
“Kick.”
The sharp needles pierced into her wrist, piercing every inch of her body.
Not only did Fang Yaq’s technique have a powerful suction force, but with every strike of the weapon, a powerful Qi surged into her body.
Ugh.
Each time, Bu Eunseol felt a bone-shaking impact that shook not only her wrists, but her entire body.
“Hebei penga……?
At that moment, Bu Eun-sul remembered the time when she was making salts with her grandfather many years ago.
-He was killed by a Hebei Fang Family master.
Grandpa, Bu Zhanyang looked at the corpse on the salting table and shook his head.
-How do you know that?
-There’s no trauma, and the bones of his entire body are incontinent.
These are the marks of the Five Tiger Demon Sword of the Hebei Fang Family.
Bu Zhanyang sighed and said.
The masters of the Ha Baku Panga didn’t reveal their appearance for a while… This person has probably committed a great sin.
Picking up a clean cloth and dipping it into a vat of warm water, Bu Zhanyang muttered in a low voice.
-When I fought against a master of the Wu Hodan Mundo, I should have utilized the outpouring of absorption to counterattack, but instead, I fought straight into my hands, and my body is in this state.
Bu Eunseol’s eyes flashed as she finished reminiscing.
The words had been incomprehensible to him in the past, but thanks to his training in swordsmanship from his superior, he was able to fathom their meaning.
‘Utilize the suction crystal to counterattack…….’
Crash!
At that moment, Pang’er’s greatsword once again sliced through Bu Eunseol’s shoulder.
“Hah!”
At that moment, Bu Eunseol plunged her black sword into the ground with all her might.
The Five Horsemen Sword Technique.
It was a poisonous sword technique of the Fang Clan that crisscrossed Hebei Province, and its power was heavier than the Tai Mountain.
Not only that, but it also had the effect of attracting the opponent’s weapon with every passing second, using the moment of their collision to unleash a powerful blow.
“No?
Fang Yaq’s eyes widened as a swift sword strike hit his shoulder.
He had expected Bu Eunsul to raise his sword to defend his shoulder, but instead, he plunged his sword into the ground.
Whirr.
The black sword wrapped in the absorption threads moved in the wrong direction, and Fang Yaq’s vertically descending greatsword became slightly crooked.
“You bastard!”
As the attack missed, Fang Yaq spun the greatsword again and swept it across Feng Shui’s waist.
Shhhh.
But Bu Eun-sul was unfazed and moved her sword in the wrong direction.
Fang Yaq snorted as the sword missed again and again.
“You’re using tricks!”
Despite the word “tricky,” Bu Eun-sul’s actions were nothing short of bold.
In the face of an enemy’s blade flying at you, how many people in the martial arts world would have the audacity to make such a foolish move without blocking it?
“Not this fast.
You’ve managed to neutralize the attack with your suction, but that’s all.
It was clear that this method would not defeat Fang Yak, but would only drain his health more and more violently.
Boom!
The dao poured out of his head like a meteor, but Fang Yaoxue opened his hands as if to welcome a welcome guest.
However, the power of the absorption was stronger than expected, and her black sword moved towards Fang Yaq’s body.
-I’ll teach you how to unleash the late bloomer’s technique in the sword arts.
As the sword moved at will, the voice of Dan Tianyang, who had been interpreting the texts in the upper hall, suddenly came to mind.
-Fast is relative. I don’t need to be extremely fast, I just need to be half a step faster than the enemy.
”Use the absorption crystals to make your sword movements faster than the paddle.
Flash!
A flash of realization flashed in Bu Eunsun’s eyes.
Pow!
Fang Yue’s greatsword slashed through the air, cutting through Fang Yue’s torso.
However, Feng Xiaoxuan was unperturbed and quickly stretched out his sword to slash at Fang Yue’s throat.
Whirr.
His movements were slow, but his black sword touched Fang Yue’s uvula in the blink of an eye.
“No?”
Fang Yaq was stunned, and he stepped back, having stopped practicing.
“How could that slow sword technique be faster than mine?
Clenching his teeth, he unleashed the technique once more.
Clang.
With a faint thunderous sound, the shadows of dozens of swords swept across the snow.
Whiz!
But once again, Bu Eunseol slowly extended his sword, and it pierced through the shadows and dug into his throat.
“Crunch!”
Fang Yaq ducked, narrowly avoiding the black sword that was digging into his celestial blood.
Fang Yue’er’s sword technique was slow, but how could it be faster than his own, which cut through the air?
“Hah!”
With his entire body energized, Fang Yaq once again unleashed his technique.
Using his intense absorption, he attempted to smash the black sword of Feng Xiaoxuan against the dao.
“No?”
However, the black sword that was about to strike Dao suddenly changed direction and attacked his uvula.
“Could it be that this ghostly bastard is using the power of the absorption crystal to extend his sword?
The Five Horsemen’s Sword Technique, which destroys the enemy’s insides by colliding with the weapon.
In order to use it, he had to extend his intense absorption every few seconds.
Bu Eunsul had used the pulling force to quickly extend her sword, then changed the direction of the force slightly at the end to attack Fang Yak.
“That’s impossible!
The absorbing force of the Five Horsemen Sword Technique could even attract rocks outside of the three realms.
To utilize such a powerful force in such a clever way was not something that even a sword master could easily do.
Cut!
At that moment, Bu Eunsul unleashed another slow sword strike.
The movements were gentle and the sword strokes were concise, but they were only slightly faster than Fang Yue’s airborne sword strokes.
“Good!”
Fang Yaq shouted as he twisted and squeezed the greatsword. Then, like a chopstick swing, he swiftly unfolded his greatsword.
Thud!
The sound of an enraged beast’s grinding echoed out, and a shower of sharp swords rained down in a gale.
Paaaaah!
As the swords unfurled, an intense suction force enveloped the sword of Feng Shui.
Burrrr.
The black sword in his hand swayed like a pole, but his pupils remained unmoved.
”The stronger the absorption bond, the faster my sword becomes.
The Five Horsemen Sword Technique was not a subtle technique, but rather a technique of injuring enemies with a powerful internal force.
If the weapons don’t collide, they can’t exert their full power.
