Chapter 68 — Dropped into Murim with an Instant Kill Skill

Chapter 68

Chapter 68 opens with Yong Useok, the peak realm master of Iron Dragon Stronghold, delivering a philosophical monologue on why tigers ignore dogs, using combat context to illustrate his point. He engages Yeon So-wol, launching relentless saber attacks that generate tiny explosions from accelerated blade qi. Yeon So-wol is forced on the defensive, his arms trembling as he blocks strikes that leave him bleeding but resolute. The dynamic shifts when Noh Huideok, a swift swordsman from the Dian Cang Sect, intervenes, appearing like a ray of light. Yeon So-wol distracts Yong Useok while Noh Huideok attacks, but Yong Useok’s protective qi art deflects their combined efforts. Through voice transmission, Noh Huideok asks if Yeon So-wol has an ultimate technique to break the defense; Yeon So-wol confirms he can kill. Yeon So-wol deliberately hides his 'Heaven-Killing Star' power, using the encounter to study Yong Useok's qi flow and weaknesses, while Noh Huideok engages in close combat, sustaining shoulder and hand injuries. Yong Useok, irritated by Yeon So-wol's cold, hunter-like gaze, attempts to provoke him, but Yeon So-wol remains still. Seizing a moment, Yong Useok charges to split Yeon So-wol in half, expecting him to be caught off guard. Instead, Yeon So-wol uses assassin-style footwork and exceptional qi sense to step through blind spots, moving silently without leaking qi. As Yeon So-wol thrusts his sword at a gap in the defense, an unknown chill severs Yong Useok's protective qi art from within, causing it to shatter. Terrified by this instinctual warning, Yong Useok recklessly detonates his own qi to evade. Though he avoids the initial fatal strike, a lingering, presence-less sword qi leaves a minute wound on his side. Yeon So-wol immediately follows with a flash of sword qi, severing Yong Useok's head. Noh Huideok stares in shock at the rolling head, realizing Yeon So-wol achieved this without revealing his ultimate technique.
