Chapter 86: Lazy Man, Collision (3)

For the first time since his appearance in the world of martial arts, Wei Yanhu was experiencing extreme tension.

Although he spoke leisurely, there was no way he didn’t know how dangerous the Bloodthirsty Demon Emperor was. Baek Mu-han’s thorough training had taught him how to deal with strong opponents, but this was his first time facing such a strong opponent in real combat.

If he hadn't gotten several chances on his way to the palace, the Bloodthirsty Demon Emperor would have been so strong that he would have had no chance of winning.

one…….

Wi Yeon-ho gritted his teeth.

It is not a situation where you can retreat just because the opponent is strong. The surrounding area is already surrounded by those brought by the Blood-Blooded Demon. If you try to escape clumsily, you will be caught by them and have to turn your back to the Blood-Blooded Demon. That is the only way to death.

In that case, the only path that Wi Yeon-ho can choose is to confront that bloodthirsty demon head-on… … .

“……That’s easy to say.”

He said that he already had a plan in his head for dealing with every situation he would encounter in the world of martial arts. That's what his master said.

So what should we do in this case? … … .

“What if you face off against an absolute powerhouse?”

"yes."

“So, when you say absolute power, you mean someone so strong that you can’t deal with them?”

"yes!"

Taaak!

As soon as he finished answering, a stone fist landed on Wei Yanhu’s head. Wei Yanhu couldn’t even scream, so he grabbed his head and rolled around on the floor.

“Ahh! Why are you hitting me!”

“You stupid disciple! Do you call that a question?”

“Then let’s call it a question! Let’s call it a question! Since we have nothing better to do, let’s just kill time… I think the disciple asked a stupid question, Master.”

Wi Yeon-ho, who saw Baek Mu-han's stone fist slowly rising again, immediately sat upright and became respectful.

Throughout history, the answer has always been clear.

“If it’s an absolute power that you can’t handle, then you shouldn’t fight.”

"omg."

“What’s wrong with you? If you can’t win, you shouldn’t fight. If you fight when you can’t win, what else is there to say other than you’re going to die? Sometimes you seem smart, but you’re consistently stupid.”

“That’s not what I’m saying. It was you, Master, who said that anything can happen in the world of martial arts, so there could be cases like that!”

“Then you should die.”

“Huh…….”

Baek Mu-han clicked his tongue.

“Haven’t I always said that in martial arts, inaction is only a standard, not an absolute truth. What good is being the best in the world? If the second or third person in the world attacks you, you’ll just die. After all, we’re all just a sheet of paper apart, so do you think I’ll be okay because I’m a little stronger? It’s not the strong who survive, it’s the survivors who are strong!”

“……That’s such an obvious statement.”

Taaaaaah!

And it was a straight shot.

Wi Yeon-ho felt that Baek Mu-han's stone fist hitting his head was getting stronger by the day. If this continued, his head might really break later.

“So instead of saying such obvious things, please tell me something that will actually help you! Even Master, you couldn’t handle the combined attack of the second and third people in the world?”

“No. I won even though the kids who were about 2nd to 30th in line attacked together?”

“…….”

Perhaps it was a dream come true to hear a sensible answer from that person.

'How can a person with such irrational thoughts come up with a sensible story?'

The truly terrifying reality was that this ridiculous boast was probably true.

“I can’t do that!”

“That’s right! Who are you!”

“That makes sense! I wonder if I won’t know when I’m your age!”

“Even at your age, I was called the best in the world?”

“…….”

The Wei Yan Lake stretched out.

If you can understand something, don't talk.

“Tsk tsk tsk.”

Baek Mu-han clicked his tongue loudly and looked at Wi Yeon-ho with pitiful eyes.

“Don’t worry, you punk. I already know you’re stupid, so I won’t ask you to do the same thing as me.”

“Oh, thank you.”

“It wasn’t a bad question for something that came out of your head. Absolute strength……. If by your standards you’re absolute strength, then by my standards…… umm…….”

Baek Mu-han tilted his head.

“Oh, this is subtle. I don’t know what level to take this.”

"yes?"

“It’s the same problem as which is stronger, a stag beetle or a longicorn beetle.”

“…….”

I wanted to scream out loud, but I couldn't. Maybe, no, definitely, in the eyes of the master, all the martial artists in the world would look like that.

“Anyway, figure out how to deal with an enemy that you absolutely cannot deal with, right?”

“Yes.”

“……This guy, isn’t he crazy? Hey, you! How can you fight an enemy you can’t fight! Where in the world is there such a thing!”

I don’t know why I’m going back to square one now, but Wei Yanhui was also a seasoned person when it came to dealing with Baek Muhan. He immediately figured out the most appropriate thing to say.

“It is such a difficult thing, that’s why I ask Master. Master is the one who makes it possible.”

“Don’t flatter me, you punk!”

Even though Baek Mu-han said that, his shoulders were secretly going up.

“Ahem. Well, it shouldn’t be that difficult. There’s no such thing as an unbeatable enemy.”

"yes?"

Baek Mu-han chuckled.

“Do you think I’m doing this for nothing? I’m causing this chaos to make you stronger. You don’t need to worry about that in the first place. If everything goes as I think, when all your training is over, there won’t be many people in the world who will bother you.”

“But what if it exists?”

“I said there isn't any!”

“But it could be possible. You said that Master is a person from three hundred years ago? The martial arts world could have developed during that time.”

“That’s why I said that. True strength is to adapt to the times…….”

“So, isn’t it still possible?”

“Ugh.”

Baek Mu-han glared at Wi Yeon-ho as if his temper was rising. However, Baek Mu-han was a rational person, unlike Wi Yeon-ho. Wi Yeon-ho’s words certainly made sense. The current martial arts world and the martial arts world during his time cannot be the same.

“I don’t think that will happen, but it’s unlikely to happen! If that happens, just think about one thing.”

"yes."

“Don't back down.”

"……yes?"

Wi Yeon-ho opened his eyes wide.

What kind of nonsense is this? You're telling me not to back down when you're an unstoppable enemy.

“Basically, you too…….”

"yes?"

“That’s what a fight is like. It’s not often that I can subdue an enemy without taking any damage. In most cases, I’m fighting an opponent who I have to give up my arm to kill.”

“Is that so?”

“And yet, most of the so-called experts are able to subdue their opponents without taking much damage. Do you know why?”

“If I knew that, I would be an expert.”

Baek Mu-han sighed. He should change his tone of speech. He shouldn't use interrogative language with this guy.

“The higher the level, the more you realize that you can’t win. Those with low levels may not be able to let go of the vain delusion that they can win if they fight well, but as their ignorance deepens, they become more and more aware of the difference between themselves and their opponents. If they rush in and kill themselves, even if it means cutting off their arms, they can somehow find some hope, but if not, they slowly start looking for a way to escape?”

Baek Mu-han raised his hand and cut his own throat.

“That’s how it goes.”

“Sounds like a story from experience.”

“It’s a story from experience.”

Baek Mu-han said with a laugh.

“There is no escape route for the cowardly. You make your own path. If you really find yourself in that situation, run with the mindset that you’re willing to die!”

Wi Yeon-ho nodded and answered.

“So the conclusion is, if I run away I’ll get stabbed in the back and die, so I should throw a tantrum so that he’ll think I should just let him go rather than fight him and get my arm cut off?”

“That’s right! That’s correct!”

“Arai!”

Wi Yeon-ho threw the stone he was holding in his hand at Baek Mu-han.

“That’s what a master should say!”

“Where the hell are you throwing stones at! You’re going to die today! Yeah, try running away! If you can run away, there must be another way! Let’s go!”

“Eek?”

'Why does it always end like this?'

Wei Yanhu sighed deeply as he remembered the bickering with his master. At the time, his master’s words had sounded like nothing more than nonsense, but now that it was at this point, what should he say…?

'The truth is the truth.'

It's the same thing, but the situation is different, so how you perceive it is different. At the time, my master just laughed it off, but when I actually found myself in this situation, I thought I understood what it meant to say that you can't run away.

In that case, there is no other way than to rush at them with the determination to cut off their arms. The moment you get scared and look for a place to run away, your concentration will be lost, and eventually you will show an opening.

Of course, the current gap between Wi Yeon-ho and Gwang-hyeol Ma-je is not so great that it seems impossible to win, so the situation could be said to be somewhat better.

Wi Yeon-ho clenched his teeth as he watched the rushing bloodthirsty demon. Then, we have no choice but to clash!

Wi Yeon-ho also ran towards the Gwanghyeolmaje.

Boooow!

The power of the Bloodthirsty Demon Lord flies in so honestly. It is the same power that just a moment ago distorted the forest and created new terrain.

“Hot!”

Wi Yeon-ho briefly drew out his white sword with a shout. The white sword emitted a dazzling light as it was filled with the energy that surged through his dantian.

"her?"

A surprised voice was heard, but Wei Yanhuo did not have the energy to pay attention to it at the moment. The power flying towards him was more frightening than any other experience he had had so far.

Even Kwon Geuk's one-fisted attack was not comparable to this power. Of course, Kwon Geuk may not have used all his strength.

If you collide force against force, there will be no answer.

'Do not fight strength with strength.'

If you can't deal with it with one strike, strike twice or three times and that's it. The sword covered in pure white light swept through the air.

One, one more.

The sword created a pure white shadow. The pure white shadow of the sword gradually filled the air, and soon began to cover the sky.

Faced with the power rushing in like a torrential waterfall, Wei Yanhu's sword created waves of sword shadows.

And then there's a collision!

The raging waterfall erased the dark reflection of the Weiyen Lake, which shone like pure white foam.

It can't be stopped. It's not even a match.

But that wasn't all.

As the countless swords created by Wi Yeon-ho were destroyed one by one, the power of the mad horse gradually weakened.

The madman's face distorted as he felt his power slowly fading away.

“To such a little kid!”

With a roar that shook the earth, the mad horse let out all of its unrefined rage.

And at that moment.

At the point where the waterfall of power and the waves of swordsmanship collided, a white light-covered Wei Yanhu burst out and rushed towards the mad horse.

The mad horse's eyes opened wide as if they were going to tear apart.
