Star Dragon Swordsman

2 Months later

A shabby white-robed grandfather is seen enjoying his homemade sweet tea that has been mixed using War Bee honey. He sat on a wooden chair on the porch of his hut, watching his students in training.

The grandfather's eyes looked at a twelve-year-old young man who was trying to lift a large stone. The stone with the size of the elephant was used as a physical strength exercise for his student.

"Hopefully this practice can suppress that black energy, although it may only be able to suppress it for a year but at least he has time to become strong enough to be able to annihilate that black energy." Grandfather murmured inwardly.

He still remembered the time two months ago when he examined the body of his disciple more thoroughly and more deeply. A fact shocked him, an extremely weak black energy lodged within his disciple's body.

But it is different from the way Kuyung Sentan is more risky, he preferred another way of giving exercises that could suppress the black energy until Walangka's purifying power was enough to completely annihilate the black energy

Meanwhile, Walangka seemed to end his training and rest for a while. He caught his breath while sitting on the ground. His clothes were also wet with sweat.

At the end of this, Ki Jagalang did give him more physical exercise than breathing exercises. His originally leisurely activities turned extremely violent since Ki Jagalang learned about the black energy that was in his body two months ago.

The Star Dragon had also become even more quiet during these two months. Walangka felt very happy because the Star Dragon no longer bothered her, but on the other hand she also felt lonely because there were no more friends accompanying her. Other than the Star Dragon, only Dilaya and Arkasari understood it.

"It's over?, just twenty times." Said Ki Jagalang while sipping his tea.

"Pardon the teacher's student, the student is not strong." Reply Walangka with breath still panting.

"Wake up, set up and restore your inner energy back."

"Ba..how does the teacher know?" Walangka could not hide her surprise. He thought his teacher wouldn't know that silent he was using his profound strength to help him lift the boulder.

"Don't underestimate your teacher Walangka, next time don't repeat!" Ki Jagalang smiled meaningfully before throwing his wooden stick at Walangka.

Unprepared Walangka can only surrender the wooden stick hit his head. He held onto his swollen head and tried to drain his inner strength to ease his pain.

Arriving, Walangka felt the flow of his inner energy clashing against each other. He hurriedly stopped flowing his profound energy then immediately started his meditation to normalize his internal flow. The surprised reaction shown Walangka was curious Ki Jagalang.

"Is something wrong Walangka?" Ki Jagalang asked while standing up and then walked closer to Walangka. He did feel Walangka using his inner power but he did not know more than that.

Walangka who was focused did not answer Ki Jagalang's question until then Ki Jagalang was nearby. Ki Jagalang then pointed his palm at Walangka trying to feel what was going on with his student's body.

"It looks like you're wrong again in using flying fish breathing." Ki Jagalang shook his head slowly as soon as he knew what was going on with Walangka's body.

"Wrong?, again?" Walangka immediately opened his eyes when he heard Ki Jagalang's words.

"How can you get out of this mountain if you keep making the same mistake."

"What do teachers mean, students don't understand?" Walangka is confused.

"I've warned you many times heart to use the breathing of flying fish, if you're wrong just a little then you'll give whatever you touch the power in yours."

"When you used the breathing of the flying fish earlier when you lifted the stone you instead gave the stone your inner strength and added to the weight of the stone while you did not stop using your inner power to make your inner power split two, one flows into the rock while the other tries to strengthen your body, it all makes your inner energy flow collide with each other."

"Hmmm, allow me to rest and sleep for a while teacher." Walangka Pinta.

"Again, ten times you have asked permission to sleep, you must not finish your physical training and first understand the breathing of flying fish!" Said Ki Jagalang firmly.

"All right teacher." Said Walangka.

. . .

"What, how can you fail?!!!" Ardigata's voice boomed and echoed throughout the narrow room.

"Sa. I don't know the chairman." His subordinate voice trembled in fear. His chest suddenly became claustrophobic due to the powerful aura that Ardigata released.

"Explain what you know!" Ardigata stared intently at his subordinate.

"They should have arrived here a few weeks ago but they didn't come so I decided to look for them and find them in the red valley in terrible conditions, all of them died with their heads and bodies hanging on tree branches, until now I'm still figuring out who killed them."

"What about the team that's on duty to East Jawata?"

"I lost contact with their chairman."

"Damn it!!!" Ardigata hit the table until it was smashed to pieces. Anger was clearly on his face.

"Please, chief, but it seems that the one who killed the team that served to West Java was the guard troops of Batujaya temple, and it seems the same thing happened with the East Jawata team."

"What about the owner of that Star Dragon energy?"

"I'm still looking for his whereabouts and will kill him immediately" the chief."

"Still looking?!, it's been 12 years and you still haven't found it?!"

"Pardon me chairman, the island of Jawata is very broad, to search in every corner takes a very long time, he said, but the chairman was calm I had spread the password and got information on the whereabouts of the boy." The subordinate smiled cunningly.

"Where?"

"On the Karacak mountain chief."

. . .

An explosion from the underground suddenly created and shocked all the disciples of the Fire-Clear Lion sect. They all gathered together trying to see what was going on.

Two shadowy figures seemed to shoot out from the puff of smoke from the explosion towards the exit of the paddle. Karayan who was also watching the explosion recognized one of the two people who shot it. he scrunched his forehead,

"Teacher Linga?"
