Three ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍swords filled the space between the two.

CLANG ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG!

Over a hundred exchanges passed in less than a single breath. And the one who made a troubled expression first was surprisingly the Sword Immortal.

‘I… am being pushed back? Me? Being pushed back by a human of the lower world?’

Lü Dongbin’s specialty was Sword Control Art during his lifetime, and now that he had become a Sword Immortal, it was Immortal Sword Art created by combining divine power.

Both were powerful techniques, but they were techniques closer to authority than swordsmanship.

If it was competing in pure sword arts at this close distance, Patrick was a level above Lü Dongbin.

Patrick’s sword, built up through countless practical experiences crossing two worlds and steady training, was surpassing the Sword Immortal in the aspect of technique alone at this moment. Eventually….

CLANG!

Along with a sound like striking a clear percussion instrument, the sword fell from Lü Dongbin’s hand.

Exquisite Sword Disarming.

And he had snatched the sword from none other than the hands of the Sword Immortal.

“Kuh….”

Lü Dongbin hurriedly tried to retrieve the sword by unfolding the Sword Control Art. However….

THWACK!

Before that, the flat side of Patrick’s left sword smacked Lü Dongbin’s face.

“Kuuugh….”

Just how long has it been since he felt physical pain? His nose burst, and he tasted iron in his mouth. And this was not the end. Rather….

“Haaaaaap!”

As if this was just the beginning, Patrick’s sword piled up myriad sword shadows and struck Lü Dongbin.

‘Bo… Body Protection Gang Qi….’

Lü Dongbin hurriedly protected his body by unfolding Body Protection Gang Qi. However, the sword strikes flying from all directions beating his whole body were giving sufficient impact even beyond the Body Protection Gang Qi.

BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM!

Along with sounds like firecrackers exploding continuously, the two gradually fell toward the ground. And then….

BOOM!

When they finally arrived at the ground.

Patrick gathered both feet and stomped forcefully on Lü Dongbin’s chest, planting him into the ground.

“Keu-heok….”

Lü Dongbin vomited blood and was embedded deep into the ground. And Patrick himself used the recoil of kicking Lü Dongbin to fly up, then landed lightly on the ground slightly away.

And wiping his sweat with a refreshed expression, he said….

“Haa…. My body and mind feel clear after exercising violence for the first time in a while. As expected, this is the taste.”

Are you human?

Anyway, looking only at the result….

“How is it? Can you continue?”

“No…. Cough….”

Lü Dongbin, who barely crawled up to the ground, spoke while bleeding from the corners of his mouth.

“I… lost.”

Patrick Schneider.

He had proudly won against Sword Immortal Lü Dongbin.

* * *

Lü Dongbin felt empty yet strangely happy.

‘Even though he reached the divine rank, to surpass the Immortal Way with a human body. It is truly marvelous.’

This is absolutely not easy.

Even though he used Immortal Sword Art to make attacks impossible with a sword of the human world, Patrick proudly overcame it.

“Magnificent. Patrick…. No, Radiant Dragon Great Master.”

“Huh? Suddenly?”

“Indeed, with this skill, I understand how you defeated the Heavenly Demon.”

“Ey…. Nothing comes out of flattery.”

“It is not flattery. I merely express true respect to you as a fellow sword friend walking the path of the sword.”

“Hahahahahaha. You don’t have to go that far.”

He seems to like it.

Seeing Patrick bending his waist back and laughing loudly, Lü Dongbin chuckled.

Looking at that appearance, shouldn’t it be seen as bright and pure rather than frivolous?

The junior scholars who have forgotten the truly important devotion by being tied up in excessive formalities should see this and take it as a model….

“Now, then shall we return to the original business?”

Patrick slowly walked towards Lü Dongbin, who was in the midst of being moved.

Seeing Patrick walking while clenching his fist tight, the emotion filling Lü Dongbin’s chest disappeared, and ominousness arose.

“Wha… What are you trying to do?”

“I told you earlier? What did I say at first?”

“…Jade… Jade Emperor come out?”

“No, before that. When we hadn’t met for long, right after listening to your bullshit imperial order, what I said. Think carefully.”

Regrettably.

Patrick’s explanation was quite detailed.

Moreover, perhaps because he was an immortal, Lü Dongbin had a good memory.

What Patrick said back then was definitely….

[Let’s get hit first.]

Lü Dongbin’s face turned pale. And then….

“I keep my promises.”

“Wait, that is not a promise, but you unilaterally….”

“Shut up!”

SMACK!

Patrick’s fist planted squarely into Lü Dongbin’s face.

“Keu-heok!”

Lü Dongbin, hit squarely on the jaw, floated into the air.

And Patrick, forcefully stomping his foot, said….

“Clench your teeth and put strength into your Body Protection Gang Qi. Or else you’ll die.”

You can just not hit me, can’t you? You crazy bastard.

Those words could not come out.

Because the pain felt next was too desperate to open his mouth and argue.

Infinite Hell Chain Fist (Modified Form)- Sword Immortal or whatever, if you talk bullshit, you get beaten -

THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD!

If it were possible to deep fry a person with fists, perhaps it would make this sound.

‘Es…. Must escape….’

Lü Dongbin hurriedly withdrew his spirit from the body of the boy named So Jil.

“Ah! This bastard is running? You won’t come here?”

Patrick screamed at the top of his lungs as Lü Dongbin’s soul escaped.

“Where is this bastard trying to run to? Picking a fight first and then saying let’s stop is the thirty-second thing I hate. You won’t come here quickly?!”

No, the person who picked the fight first was definitely Patrick.

Lü Dongbin felt aggrieved.

But he wanted to decline continuing the confrontation with that devil just to resolve his grievance.

‘I’m avoiding it because it’s dirty.’

Thus, Lü Dongbin’s soul slowly returned to the Celestial Realm.

“Come heeeeere!”

Would you go if you were me?

* * *

A beautiful place where gorgeous yet solemn palaces are situated between five-colored clouds.

This is the Celestial Realm.

A place where Taoists who accumulated divine power in the Central Plains and ascended to the divine rank gather to manage and tune the world.

And there, right now….

“Kuh-eok….”

Lü Dongbin, who had his eyes gently closed, opened his eyes while vomiting rough breaths.

Seeing him sweating profusely, it seemed he had completely exhausted his energy. A fairy approached Lü Dongbin and said, “Thank you for your hard work.”

“Huuuuuu….”

Lü Dongbin could not even answer the fairy’s question and sighed deeply with a despondent expression.

The fairy held out a small gourd bottle towards Lü Dongbin.

“It is mineral water from the Upper Heavens. I cooled it, so your stomach….”

Before the fairy could finish speaking, Lü Dongbin snatched the gourd bottle from her hand and gulped it down.

As the ice-cold water entered his stomach, the frustration relieved a litt….

“What kind of bastard is that?”

…did not relieve.

Indeed, it was not something to be relieved by that.

The fairy sighed towards Lü Dongbin and said, “Did I not tell you? You should never take him lightly.”

“No, still, that….”

“In the first place, it was not a matter for the Sword Immortal to go. I should have gone myself.”

“But you….”

“Or will you go yourself next time too, Sword Immortal?”

“…….”

Lü Dongbin was silent.

Meet that thing again?

‘I’d rather quit being an immortal.’

Lü Dongbin, who let out a sigh, said.

“Then, will you go yourself next time?”

“I will do so.”

At the fairy’s calmly answering words, Lü Dongbin felt a little relieved.

But on one hand, he also felt worried.

“By the way, will it really be okay? You are….”

“It is fine.”

The fairy smiled brightly at Lü Dongbin and said.

“I can handle him.”

* * *

Songshan, where the martial arts tournament was in full swing.

That place was buzzing greatly.

“Did you see last night?”

“Of course. It was the first time I saw such a sight in my life.”

“Hahaha. Just what on earth….”

The reason the sect leaders of small and medium sects were buzzing and agitated was because of what happened last night.

What they witnessed after going out due to the roar shaking the earth axis suddenly heard in the middle of the night was the sight of a giant celestial sword and a dragon of light clashing with each other.

Two energies full of auspicious aura, enough for even those who hadn’t learned martial arts to feel, clashed and emitted brilliant light.

If one or two people witnessed this strange phenomenon, it could just be dismissed as nonsense.

However, since thousands of people including martial artists and civilians witnessed this phenomenon, they dared not deny it.

“Could it be a bad omen of some disaster?”

“A bad omen of disaster?”

“That… how should I say it? Like an evil dragon appeared and the heavens sent down a sword to judge it….”

Roughly correct.

Except for the fact that the judgment was suffered by the other side, it is correct.

“Haha, Sect Leader Jo? Does that make sense?”

“Stop reading unofficial histories.”

“Tsk tsk, a gentleman should keep strange phenomena and supernatural beings at a distance….”

No, that person is right though….

Since ancient times, even if one speaks the truth, if there is no one to believe it, the truth is bound to be buried.

“Ahem, then what becomes of the martial arts tournament?”

“Well?”

“Wouldn’t the higher-ups decide on their own?”

“Hmm, they will notify us once a decision is made soon.”

As they expected, the sect leaders of the Nine Sects and Five Great Clans were all gathered and in a meeting.

They also saw what happened yesterday.

If they had heard it from others, they would have yelled and scolded them for deceiving the world and misleading the people, but since they saw it with their own two eyes, they could not bear to deny it.

And above all….

“The giant dragon of light and the celestial sword felt yesterday truly held an auspicious aura.”

“That is correct. I do not know why they clashed, but both were existences from which clear and pure energy was felt.”

“Amitabha, this monk also felt the same.”

Many of them were martial artists and simultaneously Taoists and monks cultivating themselves.

It means they could feel that there was no wickedness in the energy felt from the clash between Lü Dongbin and Patrick yesterday.

So, gathering the above information, the Head of the Jaegal Clan, who knew the most among them, interpreted:

“This is a good omen.”

…Let’s listen for now.

“A dragon is an existence that signifies heroes and emperors since ancient times.”

Think carefully.

Not all dragons are like that.

“In other words, it points to the birth of a great hero who will brilliantly shine upon the Murim in this martial arts tournament.”

At the Jaegal Clan Head’s interpretation, the other sect leaders nodded as if that was indeed so.

At that moment, Sect Leader Jeong Seon of the Kongtong Sect said.

“Then what is the giant sword that descended from the sky? Why did it clash with the dragon?”

Then the Jaegal Clan Head stroked his beard with a hollow laugh and said.

“Hahaha. It might have looked like a clash to us, but in fact, isn’t it that the sword and the dragon tried to help each other?”

No, they definitely fought big time.

“As many of you felt, that sword and dragon both held holy and pure energy. There is no way good and good would fight each other.”

Good and good, huh….

“According to my interpretation, it seems to mean that the celestial sword descended from the sky grants the power to punish evil to the righteous dragon.”

If Lü Dongbin were here, he would have tried to pull out all of the Jaegal Clan Head’s beard.

Especially, do you know what is the most unfair thing?

“Ooh. Indeed, that is plausible.”

“As expected of the Jaegal Clan Head.”

“To have the wisdom to unravel an exact interpretation based on broad insight and knowledge.”

“I, Moyong Mo, have realized the great name of Godly Skill Jaegal only today.”

This means that to others, it sounds quite plausible.

“Hahaha. I see. It was a good omen.”

“Then it would be good to continue the martial arts tournament.”

“It’s not just good. We must see this to the end.”

“I also agree.”

Thus, the martial arts tournament proceeded.

Along with a serious misunderstanding.
