In the upcoming Murim Login Chapter 183, Jin Taekyung is gearing up to face a new wave of enemies post his showdown with the Blood Lord. Thanks to leveling up twice post the recent events, he’s a bit patched up and ready for the next challenge. Plus, he’s got the Sword Saint by his side, although he’s oblivious to the Sword Saint’s true identity, and it’s unlikely to change in this chapter.
The recent chapters have revolved around Jin Taekyung, Cheong Pung, and Cheongang taking on the formidable Blood Lord. The Blood Lord had swooped in to snatch the Jade Talisman, but the trio intercepted him. Instead of making a quick getaway, the Blood Lord stuck around, finding amusement in the idea of toying with them – and later proving that his arrogance wasn’t just hot air.
The three faced considerable difficulty against the Blood Lord, and as the battle unfolded, it became apparent they were outmatched. Cheongang had to resort to a Chi-draining technique, but it proved futile as he eventually got knocked out. The other two fought valiantly until they, too, reached a point of helplessness. Just when things seemed bleak, Jong Richu made a timely entrance, revealing himself to be the elusive Sword Saint.
