Chapter 80 — Dropped into Murim with an Instant Kill Skill

Chapter 80

The chapter opens with Won Huiseung, visibly disheveled and wiping wine from his face, glaring at Yeon So-wol in a frozen crowd. While spectators whisper about the implications of this slight, both martial artists rise and grip their scabbards with cord, signaling a duel without drawing blades. Jin Geol, amused, offers two gold yuanbao on Yeon So-wol’s victory, enticing others to wager silver ingots on Won Huiseung, who is immediately thrust into a crushing assault. Yeon So-wol recalls Yi Yu-baek’s explanation of Zhongnan’s Thirty-Six Swords Under Heaven, realizing the art does not merely cover thirty-six directions but embodies thirty-six Heavenly Spirits, each representing a distinct martial disposition. As the fight progresses, Yeon So-wol deduces that Won Huiseung is employing only thirty-five swords, obsessively seeking the final ‘Heavenly Spirit’ strike to achieve enlightenment. Confident, Won Huiseung unleashes a magnificent, blazing sword qi, believing the fight is over. However, Yeon So-wol utilizes Willow Leaf Steps and his superior qi sense to evade into Won Huiseung’s blind spot, delivering a precise, ordinary-looking jab that collapses the opponent. After confirming Won Huiseung is alive, Yeon So-wol turns to leave, ignoring the stunned crowd. When Won Huiseung desperately asks why he lost, Yeon So-wol hesitates, wary of appearing to ‘teabag’ or lecture. Softened by his opponent’s pale, desperate expression, Yeon So-wol blurts out, “Why didn’t you dodge?” causing Won Huiseung to blush intensely as the river outing concludes with the victors disembarking first.
