Novel Return of Mount Hua Sect Chapter 424

“Are they coming now?”

Hong Dae-gwang extended his neck.

He could feel some energy rushing up the mountain from the bottom.

In his eyes, there was a glint of curiosity.

“Could it be someone?”

Hua Mountain? What about the Yuryong Sect?

Mount Hua is too powerful for the Yuryong Sect’s disciples. However, the story is a little different when it comes to Lightness Art.

The Yuryong Sect is specialized in nothing but solely in Lightness Art (경공(輕功)) and Light Body Art (경신법(輕身法)); By raising the center of gravity excessively upwards, it is a series that obtains incredibly light and fast feet, and releases its destructive power.
[The before Lightness Art may not be correct. Since there was now Light Body Art. It was never with Chinese character (as far as I remember.) so I just lumped Divine Law and Sinbbeop (Both are the MTL gives you) together, but looking through it, the two was actually different, albeit not much. Divine Law was Lightness Art and Sinbbeop was like a derivative art from that. Namu said the two were interchangeable names but nevertheless, seeing the two were mentioned in one sentence, I think it is safe to say the two-term here refers to different things.]

As a result, it couldn’t tell which was better just by looking at Lightness Art. It was difficult for Hong Dae-gwang, who is considered an expert in Lightness Art, to predict..

‘But still, Mount Hua…….’

Mount Hua Five Sword would never fall behind the Yuryong Sect…..

It was that moment.

Paaaat!

A person who popped out of the bushes rose to the top.

“Good work!”

“Oh?”

The person who flew in like a beam of light kicked the tree’s top and flipped it over. He then sprinted downhill at the same pace he had been running.

‘Yuryong Sect?’

He expected Baek Chun or Yoo Iseol to be the first to arrive, but Aksso of the Yuryong Sect was the first to reach the summit.

“The way down is over there!”

“I know!”

Aksso ran away without looking back.

A question crossed Hong Dae-gwang’s mind, who was looking at the back of Aksso’s head.

‘What about Mount Hua?’

At that moment, several people from the bottom jumped to the top again.

“Good work!”

“I’m going to knock it over!”

All four people who climbed to the top one after another were disciples of the Yuryong Sect. Hong Dae-gwang’s eyes widened.

‘Is this how it works?’

No matter how fast they are, Mount Hua won’t be this unilaterally pushed back.

A scream erupted from somewhere as if to answer his question.

“Euaaaaaah!”

“I’m going to kill youuuuuuuu!”

“Huh?”

The voice arrived before the person.

The forest seemed to shake greatly, but someone jumped out of it as the tree leaned left and right as if going to break.

“Uh….”

‘Baek… No, is it Baek Chun?’

The human, dyed in ocher, sprinted towards the summit, almost like a four-legged beast. Seeing the madness, Hong Dae-gwang cringed unconsciously.

‘Is that really him?’

But why is he putting mud all over his body?

“N- No. Baek Chun Sohyup! Why did you….”

Baek Chun lifted himself up to the air without a chance to answer, kicked the tree as if to break it, and ran back in the opposite direction.

Mount Hua’s disciples popped out of the bushes one after another.

‘What’s wrong with them?’

Back Chun was dirt-covered only in the front, but Jo-Gol and Yoon Jong, who had just arrived, almost looked like humans made of mud, covered in ocher-colored soil.

Every time they took a rough step, the dry soil fell and dust flew.

Seeing the strange scene, Hong Dae-gwang wondered what this was all about.

“Euaaaaa!”

“Kill! I will definitely kill them!”

The two darted like beasts with their eyes glaring. There was a moment of silence as their voices drifted away.

“….”

Hong Dae-gwang blinked his eyes.

‘Wasn’t this just a race?’

“Then another….”

Swaeaek!

Something black popped out of the forest before he could think of anything.

“….”

It was Yoo Iseol. As she rose like a hawk, she spat energy from her eyes and sprinted away from the tree only after kicking it.

Seeing the cold face as if covered with ice, Hong Dae-gwang felt chill for no reason.

‘What the hell is going on?’

Anyway, nothing goes normally for those Mount Hua guys.

“Sasuk!”

Yoon Jong and Jo-Gol, who followed, called Baek Chun enthusiastically.

“… Kill.”

But Baek Chun just ran forward faster, not even looking at them. His eyes are fixed only on the front.

Then a creepy voice rang next to him.

“Faster!”

“God! You surprised me!”

Jo-Gol looks sideways in surprise. The cold air flowed from Yoo Iseol’s eyes, which had already caught up with them.

Baek Chun gritted his teeth and said.

“Catch them! Make sure to catch them! Even if we die, we can’t lose!”

“Yes!”

“Let’s kill them!”

“Ooooooohhhh!”

Mount Hua’s disciples began to speed up more and more.

Kwaaaaa!

As the four people exuded their energy and ran with all their might, great aftermath swept behind them.

“More! Faster! Draw out everything you got!”

Mount Hua’s disciples clenched their teeth at Baek Chun’s cry.

“Those bastards!”

“Catch and kill!”

There were a lot of words that a Taoist should not say.

Contrary to the unprecedented attitude, their pace has become frighteningly fast. They proved with their whole bodies that humanity and martial art had nothing to do with each other.

“I can see it!”

“Got them!”

Their eyes glistened with madness as they caught up with the Yuryong’s disciple running ahead of them.

“Huhuhu. This is why helpless scribes is.”

Aksso smirked as if it were ridiculous.

Now they’re not competing with Lightness Art. It’s about competing who arrives at the goal first.

After all, Lightness Art is a way to get to a particular point quickly, but it cannot be a purpose in itself. Either way, they just have to arrive earlier.

Perhaps even those helpless Mount Hua scribes will be deeply aware of that fact.

“When I get there, I’ll give you a drink and apologize…….”

At that moment, the disciple of the Yuryong Sect, who was running at the very rear, looked back at the creepy energy felt behind his back. Then he freaked out and screamed.

“Sa- Sahyung! The Mount Hua bastard is coming!”

“What? Already?”

Aksso looked back in awe. He could see Mount Hua’s disciples galloping like beasts.

“Speed up! More!”

“I- It’s already the limit!”

“Damn it! What kind of Taoists are so fast?”

Unfortunately, Aksso was missing one thing at this moment.

The fact that Mount Hua’s disciples are not just quick, but also half sane.

“Gol-ah!”

“Ereureureu!”

Baek Chun and Yoon Jong stretched out one hand from either side of Jo-Gol and grabbed his shoulder.

“Bite them!”

“Go!”

Both men threw Jo-Gol vigorously at the same time.

And then he screamed.

“There’s no rule against fighting!”

“Bite them!”

Jo-Gol, who became one with the dried soil, drew out the sword with his eyes full of madness.

“Hey, you bastard!”

“Oh!”

“Escape!”

The disciples of the Yuryong Sect, who saw Jo-Gol flying over their heads, became panicked and scattered everywhere.

“Slow!”

But everyone couldn’t avoid him.

Jo-Gol’s sword struck the thigh of the last running Yuryong Sect disciple.

“Argh!”

The Yuryong Sect’s disciple rolled down, and Jo-Gol fell to the ground simultaneously.

Kuung!

But Jo-Gol, who got up as if he was not in pain even after the fall, shouted out loud.

“I’ll take care of this bastard! Go away!”

“Hurry up and catch up!”

“Yes!”

As the remaining four were shot forward, the fallen Yuryong Sect’s disciple was startled and tried to get up and run.

“Going where?”

But Jo-Gol blocked the front.

A sly smile formed on his lips.

“You should hang out with me.”

“Ge- Get out of the way!”

“I want to get out of the way. I’d want so, too.”

Jo-Gol smiled grimly and lifted his sword.

“At least, you should become my opponent. Don’t you think so?”

“….”

“Let’s go crazy.”

Jo-Gol turned his eyes and rushed at the Yuryong Sect’s disciple.

“What’s the distance?”

“They’re a little closer!”

“Damn it!”

Aksso gritted his teeth.

They were running as if their legs were crushed right now, but he wasn’t sure the distance would widen. No, it was only getting narrower.

‘Does this mean we’re behind in terms of Lightness Art?’

This was not supposed to happen.

The Yuryong Sect’s martial art is specialized in Lightness Art. Therefore, they can never fall behind with Lightness Art. It is a matter of pride that they lose to Taoists who have mastered martial arts instead.

“Chu Pyeong!”

“Yes, Sahyung!”

“Go! Grab their ankle and give us time!”

“Yes!”

Chu Pyeong, who was following him, turned around and rushed toward Mount Hua’s disciples.

His hands, which went into and out of his sleeve, were full of small round rings.

“Eat this!”

The rings were scattered through the air.

Poong! Poooong!

As the ring exploded with a roar, a white smoke screen filled the road instantly.

‘Now, let’s just hit the guys who are running out of here in moderation… … .’

At that moment.

A black shadow rushed toward Chu Pyeon without any hesitation between the white smoke screens.

“Huh?”

Poook!

Yoo Iseol’s fist rushed without hesitation and almost buried in Chu Pyeon’s face.

“Kuwaaaaak!”

Tung! Tung! Tung!

Chu Pyeong, who was thrown out at once, crashed to the ground several times and bounced off.

Yoo Iseol lifted herself up to the air like a hawk hunting for food as if she had no intention of stopping there. And she then descended on him.

Kung!

Yoo Iseol, who climbed on top of Chu Pyeong, gritted her teeth with a blistering chill in her eyes.

“You’re the one from earlier.”

“… Yo- Young Lady? I- I’m…!”

Pook!

But Yoo Iseol’s fist hit Chu Pyeon’s chin without giving him a chance to answer. A wail rang out every time she slanted her waist left and right.

“Go first!”

“… I’ve seen that somewhere.”

Baek Chun and Yoon Jong darted past her like that.

“Yo- Young Lady! Spare me……. Argh! Argh! Save me! Ugh!”

There was no look of mercy on her face as she smacked Chu Pyeon.

“Euaaah! Those chaotic leeches!”

Aksso let out a scream.

‘No, but you’re still a Taoist.’

He doesn’t know much about Taoist Sect, but if it’s a Tao, shouldn’t there be something noble and profound?

Even if they used Lightness Art, they couldn’t make such a move!

However, the disciples of Mount Hua had no such appearance. They were rushing ignorantly to the point as if they were a wild boar prepared in advance.

“The trap?”

“I- It doesn’t work!”

When a rain of arrows falls, it is blown away with their sword, and when the stepping disappeared, they rise without a moment’s delay. When a wooden spear came out from the side, they even bit it with their teeth.

“Can’t be helped! Run! In the end, it will be decided by Lightness Art!”

“Yes!”

The disciples of the Yuryong Sect clenched their teeth and began to run with all their might.

Kwaaaa!

They also have their pride at stake.

When the Yuryong Sect disciples, who are said to be second to none in terms of Lightness Art in the world, started to accelerate properly, their speed was so great that they could not even be followed with eyes.

But….

“The- They’re still not shaken off, Sahyung!”

“No, what the hell are they……?”

Aksso’s eyes convulsed.

‘N- No. We can’t lose.’

This was the path they used to train. It changed every time, but he half knew where the traps were and where he had to be careful.

And they will lose even with all that?

“Euaaaaa!”

Aksso pulled all his internal strength from his Dantian and pushed it into his legs. He can never lose even if he coughs up blood as soon as he arrives.

His body leaped forward, leaving the other Sahyung behind.

“Sa- Sahyung!”

“Be sure to win!”

His Saje began to slow down as if they knew what to do without being told. And they cried out while looking at Mount Hua’s disciples.

“You shan’t pass!”

“Over my dead body!”

Aksso closed his eyes tightly to the sound from behind his back.

‘I won’t forget your sacrifice…….’

But at that moment.

“No, these bastards, they’ve dropped their heads first, and they’re pretending to be something noble! I’m gonna pull your chin out!”

‘Uh…’

‘Actually, that’s true. Yes, that’s right.’

“Die!”

The Saje’s screams pierced his ears, along with a striking sound that was heartbreaking just by just listening to it.

But Aksso ran without looking back.

‘More! More!’

There is no strength in the legs.

He was out of breath and felt like his lungs were about to burst.

“I can see it!”

Finally, the Yuryong Sect came into his eyes in the distance.

If he has seen it, it will be easy. He can win if he just hangs in there a little longer. And once he wins…….

“Hoo?”

“….”

Then, a dreary voice came from behind his back.

Aksso’s eyes, which looked back instinctively without knowing, showed the face of the Gisaeng Orabi dressed with dirt.

A smiling face with a bizarre expression on it.

“Hey, did you hear the rules right?”

“….”

‘Huh?’

‘That is what I said earlier…….’

“Unfortunately.”

A white crack broke out on a face full of ocher color. Baek Chun’s eyes, smiling while showing his teeth, sparkled with madness.

“They didn’t tell us not to fight.”

“Euuaaaa!”

Scared Aksso pulled out all the last of his powers and rushed for the Yuryong Sect.

‘A little bit! A little bit more!’

The surrounding landscape stretched long. He was that fast.

His heart was about to explode, but Aksso didn’t stop his legs. His rushing speed to Yuryong Sect became faster as if he had gained momentum.

‘Catch me, you damn bastard!’

‘Sword or whatever, that’s when you can run at the same speed. No matter how strong you are, I’m faster than you!’

Paaat! Paaaaat!

The sound of kicking the ground was powerful.

Aksso, who felt that he was running the fastest in his life, clenched his teeth as if he were going to break it.

A mountain passes by.

Jump across the creek.

Aksso’s head was excited as he climbed the last mountain path to the Yuryong Sect.

The gate of the Yuryong Sect, which used to look like a small dot, expands instantly.

Twenty Jang! Ten Jang! Five Jang! Three Jang! (One Jang/Zhang = 3.03 m (9.9 ft))

Aksso, who was not careless until the end, gathered all the remaining strength and hit the ground. With his legs outstretched and both hands clasped to his chest, he soon became an arrow and shot straight at the gate of the Yuryong Sect.

“Won…!”

Tok!

“Huh?”

Aksso tilted his head for a moment.

‘What?’

His legs are still floating in the air. Of course, the arm didn’t touch the ground.

But….

But why did the body stop? Why?

Aksso slowly turned his head to the side. In his sight, a man standing right next to him came into his view.

A man reached out and grasped his neck tightly.

The grinning man pointed down with a wink.

“Huh?”
