Chapter 48: Dangga Sword Peak-4
Kwaaak!
Mayu Gyeom’s crimson sword aura and my violet sword aura collided, sending sparks flying through the air.
Mayu Gyeom, his sword locked against mine, shouted in shock.
“Peak state?! When did you reach the peak state?!”
After receiving teachings from the Sword Saint and meditating for a time, I had realized.
That sword energy isn’t about compressing the blade’s power, but about channeling it into a finer, more intense stream—like a torrent of water blasting through rock with immense pressure.
The Sword Saint had used water as an example to enlighten me.
Then, having been flung apart, we charged at each other once more, exchanging sword strikes like rays of light.
Mayu Gyeom’s sword stabbed toward me at a speed that seemed to pierce through space.
Whoosh!
It was a speed that seemed capable of piercing even the sun.
As the hyper-speed thrust created three afterimages, I desperately swung my sword and barely managed to parry it.
Clang!
“Ugh!”
While I had reached a peak level comparable to his and could block his energy, it seemed my skill as a swordsman still couldn’t match his.
“Hahahaha! Still a greenhorn! Your ki is utterly sloppy!”
Mayu Gyeom sneered as he unleashed a torrent of sword thrusts.
Shishishishish!
He was right. I was still unaccustomed to generating qi, consuming too much internal energy and lacking stability.
It was fortunate he had replenished his energy with a potion immediately after reaching the peak of his power.
