The Red Mysterious Soul Shifting technique—
It was a technique the Red Mysterious Sect, which were in the western region, possessed. It was mostly gathered on the Yuan side of the land.
And this technique had been secretly passed down in order to achieve eternal life. However, no matter how thoroughly one shut down the sect, rumors followed.
The secret that there was one who had achieved eternal life spread to the ears of the Evil Forces, and of course the head of theirs too. The Overlord Blood Martial God longed for eternal life and perfect harmony with the body, so he brought in many warriors to get the technique and improve it.
But—
‘Why?’
For the first time, Neung Man-ha, who had put his palm on the top of Mumu’s head, was shocked. Even though he had the improved and developed technique, which now had very few flaws, it still wasn’t working.
The biggest drawback to this technique was that if one wasn’t of the same blood, the soul would be rejected. But even so, if he used the skill, he could temporarily control the body.
It was just that the body couldn’t stand it, but this was strange.
‘It doesn’t work?’
No matter how he looked, Mumu didn’t seem to have his soul pushed out. If it had been pushed out or eroded, since there was a stage where two souls could be put in one body, the two eyes would show it.
But Mumu seemed fine.
“What did you do?”
“What?”
Mumu frowned at the question. Did he not know what this was ? Or was there something unexpected with the technique that happened?
“You have an anomaly?”
“…”
“Interesting. Are you saying that even though you are a vessel to me, you can handle this?”
“You keep saying things I don’t understand.”
At those words, Neung Man-ha said,
“It seems difficult now, but sooner or later….”
Crack
It was before he could finish talking. Mumu’s slap had pushed out the head of Neung Man-ha, and the body stumbled.
Mumu snorted at this.
“You keep saying what you want to say. And I don’t have anything to say or ask you either.”
Crack
At that time, the veins and flesh near the neck of the fallen head began to wriggle like they were going to recover quickly, but it didn’t manage to happen.
Paaanh!
Just like that, the whole body had exploded, and seeing this, Mumu shrugged his shoulders and looked at Yang Muoh, who had his lower body hurt.
“If the head is blown up it doesn’t recover.”
Yang Muoh’s body, which started to erode, began to fall. It was quite distasteful that things didn’t go their way.
“You are quite disrespectful for a vessel.”
“Vessel?”
Mumu approached Yang Muoh and pulled him from the ground like a radish.
Kukuku!
As soon as he pulled out Yang Muoh, he swung his legs to kick Mumu. He had recovered his spine and broken parts already.
Mumu raised his other hand to block it.
Pak!
Mumu’s hand, which had bounced it off, grabbed the ankle of Yang Muoh.
‘He grabbed it?’
Yang Muoh’s eyes narrowed, he knew Yang Muoh was better than other vessels and could be better assimilated. So even though it wasn’t perfect, his body would work well.
However, Mumu seemed to have adapted to the force already.
‘This is a body more amazing than others.’
Crack!
Mumu broke the ankle of Yang Muoh. Mumu, who had broken the ankles enough to make it poke out of the flesh, didn’t stop and tore it out.
Normal people would have been unable to bear the pain.
But Yang Muoh wasn’t like that.
Crack!
The femoris and other muscles around the left thigh of Yang Muoh began to swell up, and it all happened in an instant. Yang Muoh’s kick rushed straight for Mumu.
Paaang!
The power and the speed at which it happened was shocking, but Mumu was hit. He put the elbow down while his muscles contracted at the leg which came to hit him.
Pak!
As a result, the muscles of Yang Muoh took on a horrible shape. Mumu didn’t stop there as he grabbed Yang Muoh’s swollen leg like he wanted to tear it off.
That moment—
Yang Muoh’s eyes flashed intensely. Along with it, a sharp feeling spread.
Then, Mumu, who was about to pull his leg, coughed up blood for the first time.
“Euk!”
And he got down on his knees.
Thud!
Mumu’s expression contorted at the pain which seemed to tear his heart down. He couldn’t figure out what this was.
Yang Muoh didn’t even touch him, but it became difficult to breathe.
“What is it?”
Kang Mui who was surprised at this asked. He thought Mumu could take this man down, but then he was acting differently.
Crack!
In the meantime, Yang Muoh was regenerating rapidly. As the bones grew and the muscles interlocked, the terrifying appearance took place. But there was something which stood out.
Shhh
As the torn leg healed, the wrinkles on Yang Muoh increased, and even the hair turned white. As if aging was happening, he looked 10 years older.
‘What is this?’
It was at the moment he was shocked the leg was fully healed, Yang Muoh approached Mumu, who was clutching his heart.
“What… did… you do?”
Mumu tried to stand up despite the pain.
Crack!
But his heart throbbed like someone was clutching it. Kang Mui couldn’t understand it.
It didn’t look like Yang Muoh did something, and Mumu was in pain, to which Yang Muoh raised his eyebrow and said,
“Nothing else seemed to work, so I decided to use the Heart Sword.”
‘!!!!’
Kang Mui’s eyes widened. Did he just hear this?
‘Heart Sword?’
Heart Sword—
It was exactly what it meant, a sword to the heart. This only happened when one had fully attained their enlightenment with the weapon they use.
Occasionally there were rumors about swordsmen who could cross the last wall. But the thing with the Heart Sword was it was entirely different.
A long time ago, Baek Muja, a man from the Zhou Dynasty was said to be the one who trained in the sword and defined the mastery of the sword to be of three levels. The first was to unify with the sword which was said to be like moving one.
The second was the state where even a blade of grass can be used as a sword, and then the third and final state was the level of handling the sword at one’s will.
Even if one didn’t have a sword, they always have a heart sword, so they can cut anything with their thoughts.
‘… No.’
Kang Mui trembled in fear. All the sword masters knew that the third one was a rumor, a legend which couldn’t be attained, but it was actually possible?
“Kuak…”
Seeing Mumu cough up blood, Kang Mui gulped. It was the first time he saw this guy cough blood.
Tak
At that time, Yang Muoh went to Mumu and placed his ten fingers on the acupoints in Mumu’s head and smiled.
“If you endured it, then I will do the technique now.”
With that, he began to chant something.
‘Damn it!’
Kang Mui, unable to watch this, called up the three types of qi from his body, lightning, fire, and ice.
He knew that he could not do anything here, but if Mumu ended up wounded, then he would die.
“Stop!”
Pat!
Although injured, Kang Mui pulled out all the qi he could and tried to unleash it but—
“Do not do foolish things.”
Yang Muoh turned his head and just glared at him.
Kwak!
“Euk!”
He fell to the ground right there with pain in his heart.
Something sharp felt like it pierced his heart, but this was a pain different from one from external wounds.
“Euk… euk…”
‘I cannot even breathe.’
It felt like his breathing stopping wouldn’t be weird, so he could understand how much pain Mumu was in.
“Wait your turn.”
After a snort, Yang Muoh turned his head and began to chant something.
“Nuimanu…”
Woong!
The face of Yang Muoh turned red, and as expected, after subduing him with the heart sword, it clearly felt like the soul could be eroded and he could take over the body of Mumu.
‘Your body is mine…’
In that short moment he was convinced of his win, and Mumu was suffering and had goosebumps rise on his body.
It was clear that something unknown was happening within his body.
“Nuimanuk…”
Shh
As the chant continued, his head felt pierced as if it had opened up. This Soul Shifting technique was known to open up the area of the soul and place the other one into the same space.
But the blood point opened in the head brought in something unexpected.
‘!?’
When the point opened up, Mumu suddenly thought.
“Infant level growth, new dawn….”
It was the Heavenly Martial True technique which he would mumble for training each day. And normally it was done to attain enlightenment and open up the internal energy a person can hold.
This time the blood points were forced open.
Goooo!
In that moment a bright light of five colors shone from the body of Mumu as his eyes glowed. Yang Muoh couldn’t hide his shock at this bizarre thing.
‘What is this…’
It was then…
Kikikiki!
The golden band on Mumu’s left wrist turned by itself and moved to open.
Clack
And the band which was suppressing the power of Mumu was released.
Creepy
An unimaginable force of intimidation came out, making Yang Muoh pull back his hand from Mumu and step back.
