Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 429. Those who read the struggle (3)

A powerful career was put into the swing of the javelin.

Easy profit! Pow!

The fire that came out from the spear blade crushed the thick tree from the base and broke it in one go.

It was great power. The human body was capable of being shattered with a single blow. Even if the level of spearmanship itself was not high, the heaviness of the experience was so great that it was possible to overwhelm with force.

“Whoop!”

Zhong Liying took a deep breath.

Boys of this age grow up quickly. Zhong Liying had already grown up and had a strong physique that could be called a young man. A

smile never left the face of Xiliang, who was looking at Zhong Liying from afar.

‘Physics .’ ‘You’re born with one thing.’

Perhaps because he resembles his father, he has magnificent bones. Although he is not yet perfected, if he grows at the same rate, he will eventually have a perfect body.

‘Both his body and martial arts are growing quickly. The way he uses his energy is also at a high level for his age.’

It is a difficult achievement to achieve with simple effort. Although I follow the routine, my Qigong operation is creative. In many ways, I thought that I was born with martial arts skills.

“Whoa, it’s not enough yet.”

Jong Li-young, who was muttering softly, relaxed his shoulders. The writhing muscles were both strong and flexible.

“If you strike a little more refreshingly, you can definitely shake the lower defense without the opponent even realizing it…” “

No.”

“omg!”

Surprised, Zhong Liying looked back.

Seeing Xu Liang walking out of the bushes, Zhong Liying knelt down on the spot.

“Dominion Holy Church, Heavenly Demon Immortal. Zhong Liying meets the leader!”

“Huh, look at this guy? Are you having memory problems already?”

“⋯⋯Yes?”

“You called me hyungnim when we were alone. “The cult leader is a pestilence.”

“Church leader!”

Zhong Liying was embarrassed.

Are you my brother? That was a title that was only possible when Xi Liang was the leader of Sogyo. How can I call the person who has become the most powerful person in Shinsect and the god of the Demonic Murim my brother?

Xu Liang shook his head with a serious face.

“Anyway, that’s not what’s important right now. “You just tried to change the nature of Jinki, right?”

“Yes? Ah… yes.”

He was in a daze as he answered. He didn’t even know that Seo-ryang would appear out of nowhere, and he even saw right through his heart. It was an embarrassing situation in many ways.

“You can’t do that.”

“yes?”

“Your true skills have already been sufficiently honed. “It means that there is still room for qualitative improvement, but there is no need to aim for other paths.”

A doubt appeared on Zhong Liying’s face.

Xu Liang chuckled.

“Now look.”

thud!

Seo-ryang suddenly advanced and stretched out his fist powerfully.

Huh!

It felt like the air was being pushed out.

Seo-ryang was originally skilled in dark attacks and violent attacks. This is because they are accustomed to killing methods that aim for maximum efficiency with small force. Apgyeong (壓勁) and Junggyeong (重), which are used to push and press with strong force, were not impossible to use, but they preferred to use them mixed for efficiency or to hide them so that the opponent would not notice.

But it was different now. Although he did not emit energy through actual Balgyeong, he used the power of Jungkyung to push out the very air spread throughout the space.

And when Zhongliying saw that, he felt so shocked that his eyeballs were about to fall out.

“how is it? “Is this the technique you are practicing?”

“How…?!”

A master of magic can use this level of martial arts as naturally as breathing. However, there is no one who would not be surprised to see his technique realized at once and at the height of enlightenment

. “If it had been spewed out, it would have crushed rocks. In other words, this is the path you are pursuing.”

“That’s right.”

“However, if you change the nature of true energy, the merits of the Jung-kyung you have cultivated and cultivated will disappear. If your path is wrong, I would advise you to change it now, but your martial arts path is not wrong.”

Seo-ryang, who relaxed his posture, raised his index finger and said,

“What is important is not the nature of true energy, but the beauty of qigong, or the method.”

“How?”

“okay.”

Xu Liang pointed to the broken tree with his index finger.

“Look, it broke after being crushed from the base, right? If you attack it with a heavy and strong force, it will break like that tree. But what if you change the direction of the force here?”

Change the direction of force?

After receiving Zhongliying’s puzzled gaze, Xioliang stood in front of another tree.

“Now I’m going to hit that tree with the same heavy gun. “Please open your eyes and look.”

thud!

There was no time to reply. Before I knew it, Seo-ryang had stepped on the ground and threw his fist out.

OK.

Kwazizig! Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

Zhong Liying’s eyes widened in shock.

Xu Liang relaxed his posture.

“What do you think? The results were completely different, right?”

Unlike the tree that Zhongliying struck with his spear, the tree that Xu Liang struck was literally broken into pieces.

It was not broken, but completely broken. If this kind of martial arts was used on a person, there would not be many experts who could guarantee survival.

“What you and I have. “The difference in the quality of energy is clear. However, while you used the power of seven, I used the power of two. Even so, the degree to which the tree was damaged is different.”

“⋯⋯!”

“How do you think I made the tree like this?”

Zhong Liying muttered without realizing it.

“Rotating…?!”

“Exactly. The point is not to change the true energy, but to change the way of healing. “Rather than just throwing a hard rock quickly, throwing it with rotation can produce stronger penetrating and destructive power.”

Xi Liang slowly rotated his fist and extended it forward.

“Qi is the essence of all things in the world. In that case, we should follow the laws of Mother Nature. “Whether you spin it, sharpen it, or spread it wide and twist it, if you train it to suit your martial arts characteristics, strength will follow.”

“Ah…!!”

“Qi is just Qi. It’s like a stone rolling around on the street. However, Mount Taesan is also made up of small stones and handfuls of dirt piled up, rising through the clouds.”

“Are you saying that there is no need to attach great meaning to ki?”

“You have to give it meaning. However, there is no need to think of it as an isolated weapon. Just like your arms, your body is one with you. When you realize that, the scope of what you can do will expand.”

Xu Liang narrowed his eyes.

“How do you feel? Was it of some help?”

Zhong Liying, who had been listening to Xu Liang’s martial theory in a daze, knelt down on the spot.

“Thank you for your great grace, Master!”

“What about Hahae? And don’t call me a cult leader? “Why do you keep breaking your promises like that?”

Zhong Liying was embarrassed again.

“Ha, but…”

“But what?”

“How dare you tell the leader…”

Seoliang snorted. It was to the point where I thought someone would see a runny nose like that.

“Are you definitely going to ask your father to call you Gaju just because you became the head of the Geogyeong family?”

“That’s not true, but…”

Geogyeongga is Muga and Cheonma Shingyo is fundamentally a religion. This means that there was no point of comparison in the first place.

But that was not the case for Seoryang.

“That’s why I added the premise that it was when the two were together. If it keeps coming out that rigidly, I’ll be disappointed.”

Zhong Liying carefully raised his head.

Looking at Xu Liang’s expression, it seemed like he was really upset.

“⋯⋯Then I will do it.”

“Well thought out.”

“But… can I ask you one thing?”

“It’s a masterpiece with only the name omitted.”

“Oh, can I ask you one question?”

“OK.”

Zhong Liying hesitated for a moment. It seemed like it wasn’t an easy question to ask.

After a while, Zhong Liying opened his mouth.

“I wonder why you teach me martial arts like this.”

Seoliang tilted his head.

“We’re not related by blood, but you’re my brother. So what’s the point of teaching you something that doesn’t even seem like a lesson?”

“I…”

“It’s frustrating. Just say it, you idiot.”

Zhong Liying closed his eyes tightly.

“Are you not going to kick us out?”

Xiliang narrowed his eyes.

“Kick me out? You guys? But who are you?”

“⋯⋯.”

“ah!”

Now that I see it, it seems like he was talking about other disciples who received teachings from Lee Cheon-sang.

Xu Liang smiled.

“Why? Were you afraid that I would kick you all out?”

Zhong Liying could not easily continue speaking.

To be exact, I was scared that I would be killed, not kicked out. The first thing anyone who takes power is to eliminate the seeds of rebellion, and the seeds of rebellion could only be the executioners who competed together.

It was also a common occurrence in succession battles throughout the ages. Of course, there were cases where this was not the case, but in most cases, the executioners were kicked out or falsely accused and killed.

But Zhong Liying could not escape.

Even if he ran away, he had nowhere to go, and his father was the head of the Geogyeong family who played a part in the Mado Chil family in the first place. Being harmed by one’s family was something more terrifying than death.

So he practiced every day. Because that was the only thing that could be done.

Of course, I thought that such an act might give Seo-ryang a sense of crisis. But I didn’t want to just sit there and ignore it either.

The reason why Zhong Liying grew so much in such a short period of time was because he invested all of his available time in training.

Xu Liang chuckled.

“Yeah, you might think so.”

“⋯⋯.”

“There are a lot of things I want to say, but I don’t think I need to say too many. I have no intention of kicking you out or killing you.”

“⋯⋯Thank you.”

“thanks? “I don’t know why I should be thankful for that.”

“yes?”

“Do you think you can serve as the leader of a religious cult without being able to support even those who competed with you?”

“ah!”

I’ve never thought about it that way. Zhongliying was impressed by Xiliang’s large bowl.

“And I promised you, I will be your brother. I am a person who always tries to keep the promises I make. How could I kill my younger brother as the older brother?”

A light of emotion appeared on Zhong Liying’s face.

No matter how important the promise was, no one could show the gift of saving the life of a person who could become the spark of rebellion. So I was surprised and thankful at the same time for the person named Xu Liang.

“A useless thought . “But just train harder. Even if you don’t become the leader of a religious cult, you have to become a great person, right? I’ll always leave your spot empty, so grit your teeth and train harder and write history together with me.”

“I received the order of the leader…”

“Useup, you bastard?”

“Oh, I understand! I’ll do my best!”

Seo-ryang smiled and stroked Jong-li-young’s head. No matter how big Jong-li-yeong was, he was still much shorter than Seo-ryang, so it didn’t look awkward.

“Anyway, what are the other kids doing?”

“He will be at his residence or at a nearby training center like me.”

“I guess I should stop by sometime.”

“Yes.”

“Oh, by the way, I have something special to ask of you.”

“Please speak, brother.”

“Looks like it’s already melting in your mouth?”

“⋯⋯.”

“I’m kidding, man.”

“lol.”

“That’s nonsense. Anyway, how long has it been since you went home?”

“I haven’t been there since I joined the church during the Pasunje period.”

“Really? “Then I guess I can see my parents at this point?”

“Yes?”

“How old are you?”

“I’m sixteen.”

“Well, I’m a little young, but as long as I have the ability, it doesn’t really matter, right? “Well, he’s a good size.”

An insidious light appeared on Xu Liang’s face.

“Would you like to work as a special inspector? I’ll even provide you with a light belt.”
