Chapter 116: Guangjianling-2
The next morning, Do Mun-seung was finally released from her restraints and could walk toward the entrance of Bright Sword Tomb.
Beside him, the Thousand-Circle Master, Mak Woo-jeon, was swinging his sword to warm up.
Mak Woo-jeon addressed him.
“As you saw yesterday, inside lurks the Deputy Sect Leader, Gayuak, who has fallen into madness. For some reason, he never ventures beyond a certain distance from the cave. He only attacks those who try to enter it.”
At those words, Do Mun-seung frowned.
Gayuak attacks those trying to enter the cave?
He asked Mak Woo-jeon with a skeptical look.
“If it’s the esteemed Master Gayuak, the Vice-Chairman, then you’re a supreme master who’s transcended the eighty-year barrier of internal energy, aren’t you? If someone like that is guarding the cave, then there’s no way I could ever get inside, right?”
Then, Mak Woo-jeon chuckled softly and replied.
“Of course. What’s more, astonishingly, after falling into madness, his martial prowess actually rose another level. I sparred with him briefly, and now he’s on par with me.”
“What?!”
That was nothing short of astonishing.
That Gayuak’s martial prowess had increased after falling into madness?
It’s even said he’s reached a level where he can match the Thousand-Circle Master, who’s transcended the ninety-year barrier of internal cultivation and gazes upon the pinnacle.
His descent into madness had actually elevated his prowess.
