Absolute Sword Sense Chapter 257

[Episode 85 Agent (1)]

Baek from the distant future?

I was montarily confused by Geomseon’s words.

If we take the words literally, the current Geomseon is not the hundred I t, and that hundred is sothing that happened in the distant future.

In other words, the swordsman I am currently eting is...

-The swordsman of the past?

At Sodamgeom’s words, Geomseon nodded, still frowning.

Is the swordsman in front of

really a person from the past?

“Ha....”

If I hadn’t experienced regression, I would never believe this.

I just passed through the foggy forest and t a sword ship from the past.

I thought it was strange that in the image, he looked younger than when we t.

-How is the sword of the past present in the present?

Sodamgeom’s words made

wonder, too.

People, including Geomseon, were hidden in a mysterious formation in the foggy forest.

I don't know how this is happening.

I was about to wonder why, but at that mont, Mosanpa flashed through my mind.

‘Geomseon's first disciple said there was a Mosan faction.'

Wait a minute, that ans

“......Elder. Where I was from, the Mosan faction had long since beco extinct. But he spoke as if the Mosan faction was still alive and well. “Is this the past, or is it the past for ?”

My voice trembled the whole ti I spoke.

If this was really the past I thought it was, this wasn't all that surprising.

It ans that I have co to the past.

Geomseon asked

a question with a bright look in his eyes.

“Is the Mosan faction going extinct?”

“That's right.”

“Huh...so that’s what happened in the end.”

“......Elder. “Didn’t you see my mories yourself?”

I read your mories with Cheonki, but why are you talking as if you don’t know?

Geomseon shook his head at my words.

“You just ca into contact with another

within you.”

“yes? Are you saying you ca into contact with the old man’s bag?”

Now that I think about it, I absorbed the hundred pieces of Swordsman obtained from the second Jibo with the Heavenly Fist.

I thought the bag had lted into , but does it still exist with a will?

Geomseon sighed and said without letting go of my hand.

“I see how you could get in here. “It was possible because I had Nobu’s bag.”

“Because you have the old man’s bag?”

“Only invited people can enter this fuse. Otherwise, you won’t even be allowed to set foot in the first place.”

So, when you try to enter the foggy forest, it seems like you have escaped from the forest on the other side.

But I also went to the forest on the other side a couple of tis.

Then, I was able to co in by going up, and I thought,

‘Ah! Prison sentence.'

It seems to have been entered when the prison cell in the Big Dipper was opened.

It could be said that it was truly elaborate.

But the question was still not resolved.

“Honestly, it still doesn’t make sense to . “I ca to this place inside the forest of fog. Even if it is as the old man said, why did I co to the past?...”

At those words, Geomseon stroked his beard and spoke to .

“The person nad Nobu could definitely be soone from a long ti ago for you. “But the fuse here doesn’t have that concept.”

“yes?”

What does this an?

When I was puzzled, Geomseon answered.

“Fuse is not a place that can be defined by past, present or future.”

“What does that an?”

“Dohwaseon is a place where people are completely cut off from everything in order to sever ties with the world. The fuse is nowhere and everywhere. And it is as if there is a certain ti and there is no ti.”

“.......”

This is a very contradictory statent.

What does it an to be present at any place and not at any ti and not at any ti?

It is questionable whether that is even possible.

“I still don’t know enough, so it’s hard to understand what the elders are saying. “Could you explain it a little bit easier?”

“Hehe, since I haven’t practiced the Tao, it’s natural that I can’t understand it.”

If you learn the Tao, will you be able to understand it?

“This place, Dohwaseon, is a completely independent place, regardless of the ti and changes outside. That’s why you were able to co here from the ti you were there.”

It's difficult. It's difficult.

However, if my rough understanding is correct, the concept of ti seems to be completely different here.

Anyway, as Geomseon said, I am not a Taoist who practices the Tao, so there is no need to take this difficult.

Geomseon clicked his tongue and said.

“It’s truly a coincidence. “After getting the hundred that I will leave behind, I can’t believe that he guessed countless odds and guessed when and where the fuse would open.”

If you listen to it, it seems like there is sothing beyond chance and chance.

Maybe it was fate that I ca here and t Geomseon of the past.

This is truly amazing.

But now that the question has been resolved, there was sothing more important than that.

“Elder. “If I get out of this fuse, I can go back to the ti I was in, right?”

In response to my question, Geomseon released the hand he was holding.

Then he spoke in an urgent voice.

“It almost got into big trouble.”

“yes?”

“Let’s go.”

“You an now?”

“We must hurry. The entrance to the fuse is constantly changing. If sothing goes wrong, you may miss the ti and place you were originally at.”

“Is that true?”

If that's the case, I don't have ti to stay like this.

When Geomseon waved his hand, the body that had been bound by his energy beca free.

“I will give the swords back.”

Strangely enough, when Geomseon raised his hand, the disassembled wooden armor ca back together and returned to its original form. And the blood demon sword and the love sword that had been lying on the floor floated up and entered the wooden armor.

“Follow Nobu.”

-Sigh!

When Geomseon winked, a sword that was hanging on the wall ca flying out.

He turned his back and climbed on top of the sword.

Geomseon told .

“Now that you understand the prison sentence, you can do it too.”

yes. Of course I know how to do it.

I just can't take my eyes off it when I see the original form of the sword flying.

‘Namcheon.'

-i get it!

Namcheoncheolgeom lay down on its side so that I could climb on it.

I also got on the sword.

Then, as if the sword had been waiting for him, he climbed on top of the sword and went out the window.

I also flew after him.

-Shoooooo!

The sword line imdiately stretched into the sky in the southern direction where I had flown.

I followed suit and went up, and soon the sun in the sky disappeared and the sky was covered with darkness.

It was truly a strange phenonon.

The warm air in Dohwaseon also turned very cold.

‘Are you cold?'

At that ti, breath flowed out.

‘!?'

It's not winter now. What on earth is this?

The mont I looked down, I was dazed.

-Woonhwi....the forest is covered with snow.

As Sodamgeom said, the entire forest on the ground was covered in white snow, and the topography of the place was completely different from the forest I was originally in.

A sword ca flying on a sword and spoke to .

“Is this where you ca from?”

I responded in a puzzled voice.

“no. “It wasn’t winter when I was there.”

“Oh my...”

Geomseon also couldn’t hide his embarrassnt at those words.

No one could have predicted that sothing like this would happen.

‘Sama Yong.... Ah Song.... Left Baek....’

They were the first thing that passed through my mind.

I don't know where I am or what ti it is, but from the perspective of my companions, they will think that I have disappeared after flying over the foggy forest.

“Elder! “Is there any other way to get to where I was?”

Geomseon spoke to

in a serious voice.

“There is no way that change can occur in such a short period of ti.”

“What do you an by that?”

“Follow .”

The sword changed direction and flew back to where the fuse was.

I felt frustrated, but since there was nothing I could do about it, I followed him.

As we entered the fuse, the sun shone brightly again, revealing Mureungdowon.

The sword passed by temple-like buildings and a lake and headed up the highest hill here.

There I saw a cave-like place.

He got off his sword and gestured for

to follow him.

“Where are we?”

“It’s the center of the fuse.”

“center?”

“Don’t say anything, just follow .”

“All right.”

I followed the sword and entered the cave.

Normally, when you enter a cave, you would feel a humid atmosphere, but this cave had none of that, as if it had been created artificially.

Rather, I even felt a warm feeling.

What does it feel like to feel even more heat inside the cave?

However, the swordsman frowned, his face beca serious, and he launched a new weapon into the cave.

I followed him and picked up speed, but soon a large cavity was revealed.

-Rarrrrrrrrrr!

“What the hell is this...”

The entire large cavity was burning with fire.

The walls inside the cavity were filled with scriptures written in red, like amulets, and the fire quickly spread through them.

“ha!”

The swordsman let out a deep sigh and waved his sleeves towards the flas.

Then, the fire that was spreading throughout the cave like a fire was extinguished by strong wind pressure.

-Wheeeeeeee!

The fire was extinguished in an instant with profound engineering power.

The power of the void is so deep that it can instantly extinguish the fire within this large cavity with just a wave of the hand.

I don’t think he’s called a good man for nothing.

“I wonder why the change happened so quickly...”

“Elder. “How on earth is this happening?”

“...It looks like soone set fire to the thirty-six heavenly directions gate at the center of the fuse.”

“Are you saying you set the fire on purpose?”

Geomseon nodded as if he was sure.

I asked in an anxious voice.

“Does this have anything to do with

running back to where I ca from?”

The sword pointed upward.

I didn't realize it, but when I looked up, there was a small hole at the top of the cavity.

It was a hole the size of a fist, and light leaked through it, stretching out in one direction of the cave.

“If you use this to look at the thirty-six heavenly directions, you can look back to see at what point you ca, but it has been burned.”

“Then what should I do?”

An ominous feeling ca over .

If this continues, won't we really be able to return to the original ti?

Hearing my words, Geomseon sighed deeply and said.

“I’ll be honest. “You have already missed your ti.”

“What do you an by that?”

“It is impossible to guess when and where we originally ca.”

‘!!!'

I was left speechless by Geomseon’s words.

So does that an we can't go back to the original ti?

For a mont, my heart felt heavy.

I was at a loss as to what to do with this.

So do I have to be trapped in a ti where I don't know when?

The worst couldn't have been this bad.

Then the swordsman said to :

“I know the direction in which the shadow shines, so if I postpone it and restore the scriptures, I think we can go to a similar ti.”

I was dumbfounded by those words.

For a mont, I felt foolish for feeling frustrated with despair.

“Couldn’t you have told

right away? “I’m afraid I won’t be able to go back for no reason…Sir?”

However, Geomseon’s expression was not very bright.

Geomseon said as if he felt sorry.

“Look. How many scriptures do you think were in this cavity?”

I looked around.

Just looking at the paper in the scriptures, it was hard to guess the number.

Judging by the size of the unburned paper and writing, it seed to be at least thousands of sheets.

But shocking words ca out of Geomseon’s mouth.

“A total of three hundred and eighty-six thousand seven hundred and sixty three.”

“.......”

“The preparation period for Dohwaseon’s independence from the secular world has been over ten years.”

Those words made

drool without realizing it.

Looking at the wall, more than a third of it was burned and damaged.

So, if it took four years to build everything as Geomseon said, doesn't that an that it will take at least three to four years before it can be restored?

“Then I...”

“I have no choice but to stay here while the scriptures are restored.”

‘!!!'

Ah...

I'm really going crazy.

I ca to look for Sodamgeom and I don't know what kind of disaster this is.

The good news is that even if I spend that ti here, I should take comfort in the fact that it will be the sa ti when I leave.

But here, the prosecutor revealed even more shocking news.

“...And even if the restoration of the scriptures is completed, considering the range of error in the scriptures where the light points, there will be at least so ti error.”

“How much is that?”

A day or two, or up to ten days, is okay.

If it lasts that long, it will be difficult for the group.

However, that wind collapsed cruelly.

“There will be an error of at least a few months and up to a year.”

‘.......ah.'

At that mont, a curse almost ca out.

-Really, what should I do? Everyone will think you're dead.

That's what I want to say.

This wouldn't have happened if that guy, Geomseon's first disciple, hadn't taken you by force.

Of course, it was an honor to actually et him, who was called the best swordsman in martial arts history, but I had no idea what would happen if I was absent for nearly a year without any news.

Geomseon spoke to

as if comforting .

“It could end with a difference of two or three months.”

“.......”

Yes. thank you

It's not much of a consolation though.

“Did you say that the pale-faced man was your first disciple?”

“Whew. Nobu raised his student wrong. “If it weren’t for that kid, you wouldn’t have gone through this.”

“.......”

It was absolutely not an easy thing to say that it was okay.

Geomseon spoke soothingly to .

“A pure friend. As a result, it beca toxic and I bumped into it here and there and had many accidents. At least it wasn't done out of malice. It is based on purity and fairness. All of this happened because of Nobu’s lack of teachings, so don’t bla that child too

much…” -Ta-da-da-da-da-dak!

“execution!”

Before Geomseon could finish speaking, soone ran into the cavity.

He was a middle-aged man wearing a uniform, and everything about him, starting with the energy he gave off, was unusual.

However, the middle-aged monk’s expression was very serious.

Geomseon seed puzzled and said while looking at him.

“What's going on? Priests.”

“Female execution. Big trouble...Ahh!”

“Priests?”

“You can’t believe they made a scripture like this! Vigilante Inooooooom!”

A middle-aged Daoist could not help but feel anger as he looked at the damaged amulet scripture in the cavity.

Geomseon couldn't hide his embarrassnt at the word “vigilance,” and asked.

“What does that an? “A motorboat?”

Now that I think about it, I rember that Geomseon called his first student Gyeongjeong.

I think it's his na.

But why are you so angry and shouting his na when you see the damaged scriptures?

Could it be that he was the one who started the fire here?

I looked at the sword.

“........”

Geomseon’s expression was so dark that it could not be described in words.

I don't know how to express this feeling, but at least it seed close to extre disappointnt.

Geomseon slowly released his lips.

“What's going on? Priests.”

“That Vigilante bastard ran away with half of Dohwaseon’s eight tools.”

“what?”

“Two of the monks guarding the Buddhist temple lost their lives. And according to the words of the injured monks, it seems that Yang Seon-i, the second disciple of the executioner who was trying to dissuade him, was also forcibly taken away.”

“How!”

The swordsman stumbled as he must have been so shocked by those words.

I could guess how emotionally damaged he must have been if he, a man of deep discipline, showed himself like that.

There is nothing greater than the feeling of being betrayed by soone you trusted.

Even more so if it is your favorite disciple....

-Paaaaaaa!

Intense wind pressure occurred around the sword.

How profound is the power of gong that just by being angry can it create such a wind pressure?

It gives

goosebumps.

I can say for sure that there is no one, not even among the eight major masters or the four major evildoers, who can deal with him.

Geomseon said, looking at the burnt scriptures in the cavity.

“So you’re saying he did this to stop the chase?”

“...I guess so. execution. Haa...”

The Taoist sighed.

Oh, I feel really angry.

So, the reason I'm trapped here in this fuse is because of what he did.

Geomseon raised his voice and shouted.

“Nobu will go out and catch him.”

“Sahyeong, I would like to do that right now, but... Have you forgotten the oath you made to President Jeongyang and Jinin? Didn’t all seven of us decide to leave the world and not get involved anymore over two hundred years ago?”

Geomseon, who seed ready to run away at those words, stopped.

My face turned red and then blue, and it seed like I was trying to calm down my anger.

No matter how deep your discipline is, will it be easy to tolerate it?

I, too, was furious at the guy, but I watched quietly before intervening.

At that ti, Geomseon's eyes narrowed and he spoke to the middle-aged monk.

“Priest…..as long as it’s not us.”

“What do you an by that?”

The sword slowly turned its head and looked at .

‘!?'
