Chapter 322

Episode 322The one who lights the sacred fire (4)

“It was somehow strange.”

Arriving near the primary information base, Yeon Ho-jeong looked around and nodded.

“Oh my waist. “What do you mean?”

The cost of Yeonhojeong’s Cheonjong operation was rising exponentially. The speed of the divine law exploding with the internal power of the Yeonga Shindan was already enough to hear the voice of the head of a sect.

I almost got carried away, but I ran too much. It was no wonder that Zhuge Yan’s back was sore.

Yeon Ho-jeong pointed to the surroundings with his hand.

“How does it look?”

“How do you feel?”

“Tell me what you felt when you saw this terrain.”

Zhuge Zhen’s eyes sparkled. This is because there was no way Yeon Ho-jeong would ask such a question out of thin air.

“Let me see.”

Zhuge Yan, who was looking around seriously, tilted his head.

“well? Is there anything strange about it? “Did you say the primary base was in the forest over there?”

“okay.”

“You have a good location. It definitely shows that you care. “Unless you were suspicious and looked into it from the beginning, even the world’s most expert would just pass it by.”

“Other than that?”

“How about making good use of geographical advantages to make it easy to hide and cover? Although it is reasonably far from the village, it is convenient to monitor the village due to its location. But…”

Zhuge Zhen’s eyes sank.

“There are so many trees.”

“That’s it.”

The cold of winter had not yet gone away. It will take two more months for new leaves to grow on the bare trees.

However, the Shinhwa Church’s information base was not visible. This is because the trees are so dense.

“I don’t think they would have set up a base in this terrain just for cover. “If you think about it calmly, you can find more secret places than this.”

“What do you mean?” Sёarᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“There is another reason why it has to be a place like this.”

Zhuge Zhen’s eyes sparkled. It was similar to the look in the eyes of a curious girl who discovered something interesting.

“Are other bases like this too?”

“okay. I felt a strange sense of déjà vu, but when I thought about it, there were trees growing around all the bases. “It’s so hard to find.”

“Hmm.”

Yeonhojeong’s eyes sparkled with fire.

Although he had met the enemy of the Mythology, he had never fought against the master. Most of the people he fought were demons from the Saeum Church.

However, I was aware of the characteristics of the Shinhwa religion’s adherents.

‘They worship fire.’

Myth and sacred fire.

The leader of the Shinhwa religion receives absolute trust from the believers as the representative of the god who first gave fire. Like evil spirits and bloodshed, their trust also reached the level of fanaticism.

That’s why all the martial arts they use are based on fire energy.

Of course, it is not just a firearm. From what I heard, the prevailing opinion was that their hot-yang skills were completely different from those of the central plains, and that the firearms they possessed were also overwhelming.

According to the words of a master of the Saeum religion, the fire power emitted by a person who has mastered the martial arts of the Shinhwa religion is almost equivalent to that of lava.

With that level of firepower, it can be seen that even compatibility is ignored.

‘At the same time, in order to develop martial arts based on firearms, it is said that training is done in a place where the wood energy that will be used as the sacrificial lamb is strong. After building a certain level, it is said that in order to suppress the compatibility, you train Yeoyanggong in a place with abundant water energy.’

It was like throwing a few drops of water into a strong fire and it would burn even more fiercely.

Yeon Ho-jeong looked around once again.

‘This place is rich in wood energy. All bases are like that. It is not simply for the sake of imperviousness, but for escape and concealment in case of discovery. Furthermore, in a place like this, you won’t be defeated even if an expert a few levels higher attacks you.’

There is a saying that it is Cheolongseong. This means that absolute defense is possible.

In that sense, for those in charge of the base, this place is close to Cheolongseong. If we concentrate our firepower, the entire place will become a sea of fire in an instant.

“This time, all of our enemies have learned the martial arts of Geukyang. Since we have been practicing only Yeoyanggong for hundreds of years, the level of Yeoyanggong should be considered superior to that of the Jungwon martial arts.”

Zhuge Zhen’s face became serious.

“Then… that explains why we set up a base in a place like this where wood tools are abundant.”

“okay.”

Yeon Ho-jeong sighed.

‘I should have noticed it sooner.’

I finally realized why my father told me to take a break.

If it were him normally, he would have noticed this level of strangeness right away. However, due to his intense excitement and increasing fatigue, he thought of his opponent as if he were dealing with a Four-eum religion rather than a Shinhwa religion.

That’s why understanding was delayed. It was an uncharacteristic mistake.

“Of the formations you found, how many are based on water energy?”

“Two out of fifteen total.”

“enemy.”

“In the first place, the fact that it is a method that draws on the five elements is rare. “It boasts the highest level of difficulty.”

“hmm.”

“Furthermore, since the true method of controlling and regulating energy does not follow natural rules, it is bound to naturally break down over time.”

“How long will it last?”

“At least two months, assuming it’s done properly. Manufacturing itself is not that difficult as long as you have people involved.”

“Good.”

“Instead, we need a water source to complete the formation. “If you set up a formation without that, the area outside the formation will become extremely dry.”

Yeon Ho-jeong looked north.

There was a long, narrow river near the northeastern part of the village.

Zhuge Yan nodded.

“It’s a long way, but it’s possible if we connect the main axis. Instead, it will take fifteen days to connect the axes. “It will take about five more days to work secretly.”

“Twenty days.”

Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.

“Anyway, we have forty-five days until we send the information again. “Now there are forty-two days left.”

“Shall we get started?”

“of course.”

“Just this one?”

“no. This place and the two last bases in Heochang…”

That was then.

grasp!

Yeon Ho-jeong covered Jegal A-yeon’s mouth and immediately retreated to the rear.

Embarrassed, Zhuge Yan sent him a message.

[What’s wrong?!]

[Quiet.]

I felt an enormous weight in the answering voice. Zhuge Zhenyan kept his mouth shut without realizing it.

Yeonhojeong, hiding behind a huge rock, looked towards the north in the distance.

‘master?!’

Grrrr.

A burning energy wave is conveyed like a hallucination.

The nameless expert also made his presence felt to the fullest, but it was not enough to avoid Yeonhojeong’s senses, which had become extremely sharp due to rest, Yeongasindan, and the balanced Four Gods.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes wavered.

‘What’s happening all of a sudden?’

He is a great expert. Surprisingly, the level of perfection of Jingi, judged only by feeling, was comparable to that of the six generations of the family.

It is difficult to compare him with his father or Prince Moyong, but at least he did not seem to have any shortcomings compared to Namgungin, the head of Paengga or Namgungga.

A transcendent expert who is not easily seen. An expert of that caliber entered an area only a few dozen miles away from the Murim Alliance.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes trembled slightly.

‘These guys are fearless.’

In terms of Saeumgyo, it is like the appearance of a military commander-level expert who takes charge of the vanguard.

‘Why at this point? why? Could it be that they are this careless? Or is it because you have absolute confidence?’

Questions keep coming back and forth. However, when the opponent’s prayer reached the base, Yeon Ho-jeong stopped thinking.

He secretly used internal energy and maximized his hearing.

“Twelve Commander, are you here?”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.

It was a familiar voice. It was clearly the middle-aged man I heard at Mook two days ago.

After a while, the voice of an unknown expert was heard.

“I heard that that half-assed person sent a message.”

It’s heavy.

The voice itself was rather high, but it sounded strangely low and resonant.

It was great majesty. The dignity of a great master was revealed in the voice delivered. Regardless of the completeness or density of the Jingi, the intimidation itself as a strong man was great.

“That’s right.”

“What information was it?”

“Didn’t you hear?”

“….”

“omg! sorry! “A small person commits a mortal sin…!”

“Okay. I am not a leader. “I am not a person so merciless that I would punish you for not responding promptly.”

“I just apologize.”

“So what kind of information was it?”

“It was information about a late Jisoo named Yeon Ho-jeong, the leader of the Murim League’s remnant troops.”

“By Yeonhojeong, do you mean the later Jisoo, who has recently become famous?”

“That’s right.”

“Are you saying that it wasn’t even Bonggong, but that he only sent some petty information?”

“Yes, but I believe it is a sufficiently surprising matter if what was sent is true.”

“Give me the letter.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes deepened.

It was he who threw out fake information based on the truth. However, it felt strange to hear his name mentioned in the mouths of his enemies.

Kuuk.

Suddenly, my fists gained strength.

I felt like I wanted to run out and blow their heads off right away, and even more coldness took over my body.

Sreuk.

Zhuge Yan gently squeezed Yeon Ho-jeong’s shoulder.

I don’t know what’s going on, but it probably means to calm down. Yeon Ho-jeong took a deep breath.

After a while.

“Is this true?”

“We dispatched an informant separately to find out the truth. “It may take some time, but we will be able to conduct sufficient research into the person named Yeon Ho-jeong.”

“…whether this is true or false, it is clear that this is information that must be handled with caution.”

“That’s right.”

“Maybe they noticed our presence? “Isn’t there a possibility that this incredible information was openly leaked?”

Yeon Ho-jeong felt his heart pound for some reason.

“As of now… I think there is absolutely no possibility of that happening. However, there is something that happens just in case, so we are being very careful.”

“I heard that Jamyeong Ilho was assigned to a half-dead person. “Where is he now?”

“It is not understood.”

“what?”

“That thing! He had the Holy Flame and a handwritten letter from the Senate! “We are not receiving orders from our side because we are allowed to communicate directly with our superiors!”

“It’s a senate…”

Yeon Ho-jeong could feel a faint smile in the voice of the master called the twelve chiefs.

It was a voice mixed with ridicule.

“Old men who have lost all their teeth. That’s always the problem with people who are ready to go. “Our school is also a world where people live, clinging to useless traditions and blood ties.”

“I just apologize.”

“I get it. Anyway, Jamyoung Ilho is just a guy blinded by power. “He’s an idiot who doesn’t even want to be embarrassed, but he’s someone who would never betray himself, even for his own sake.”

“That’s right.”

“i get it. I will stop by again in the future. “So that we can protect it properly.”

“I’ll keep that in mind!”

Sreuk!

The presence of the expert, known as the Twelve Leaders, disappeared in an instant.

“Whoa, I’m dying. “How could a man who is so powerful have suddenly come all the way here?”

The owner of the grumbling voice entered the prison.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.

[zinc. Return to Mang as is now. We must maintain our current prayer. You must never get caught.]

[You?]

[I’m chasing after you.]

Zhuge Yan read Yeon Ho-jeong’s strong will in her voice. He wasn’t the type of guy who wouldn’t go even if you tried to stop him.

[be careful. Don’t overdo it.]

[Got it.]

Sarak!

Yeonhojeong disappeared from sight in an instant.
