Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 277
Episode 277 The Demon Frontier (2)
It was a sudden explosion, but Seoryang was not surprised.
Whoa!
Black smoke and bright yellow smoke tried to engulf the area at an incredible speed, but it was impossible.
Cheeeeeeeek!
Suddenly, a huge sphere was formed around Seoryang’s body. It was a barrier of true energy that boasted powerful defense power, enough to block even sword energy with a magical membrane made from the reigning Demon Emperor.
Thanks to this, the monster’s exploded flesh, bone fragments, and terrible smoke and morale did not reach Seorang and his party in the slightest.
Ugh! Ugh!
A sphere of true energy that gradually becomes smaller.
The sphere, which had grown small enough to fit into Seoryang’s hand, was not only yellow, but had a soft bluish green color.
“It was quite sudden, though.”
Xi Liang clenched his fists.
Pow!
The sphere of true energy exploded and the morale disappeared without a trace. Even the monster’s flesh and bone fragments.
“Firecrackers would have been better.”
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
A blue ghost fire flashed in Seoliang’s hand.
It was not a method of destroying the small world that Lee Cheon-sang had developed.
However, the evolution of samadhi using the reigning Demon Emperor was clear.
Since even the Gate of Desire has been opened, it will not be long before he too, although not as good as Lee Cheon-sang, will be able to use the Extreme Yang Ji-gong (極陽之功) of Socheongeolhwa.
“Master Xiao! Are you okay?”
“are you okay?!”
Seo-ryang glared at the woman without answering.
The corner of the woman’s mouth twitched. The rotten, tattered flesh split apart. It was truly a disgusting sight.
“Amazing….”
Fuuuuuuuuuuck!
The woman’s body was torn to pieces. It was a devastation created by Xiliang’s power of violence.
Patter.
Rotten flesh and bone fragments flew everywhere.
Xu Liang said calmly.
“let’s go.”
The two men and women looked at Seo-ryang with puzzled faces.
“You are welcome.”
“Are you welcome?”
“It’s an illusion that’s close to reality. “You brought vitality to the welcome, so I think you should acknowledge the effort and skill.”
Ma Dong-pil stuck out his tongue. Even he, who had reached his peak, did not realize that the woman in front of him was an illusion.
“A similar thing is taught in Murder Gate. But it’s much higher than that.
“If a person’s emotions are shaken and a gap in their mind is created, they use that gap to induce them to hallucinate.”
“I see.”
“It’s not that surprising. “Once you get used to it, it’s not difficult to break it.”
Seo-ryang speaks calmly.
Although it was somewhat profane, Ma Dong-pil could not believe Seo-ryang’s words.
This type of fantasy formation is not only difficult to get used to, but it is also not something that can be easily destroyed even if you get used to it.
‘Where on earth did I get this kind of experience…?!’
Why?
Recently, Lord Xiao seemed to be a little different from before.
It was something difficult to explain logically. To put it bluntly, it was more like just a feeling.
Unlike before, where it was a bit difficult to handle and at the same time very friendly, it was difficult to say a word these days.
Things that I couldn’t ignore before are now bothering me one by one.
‘No, Master Sogyo has not changed. If things had changed, I would have changed.’
Ma Dong-pil tried hard to suppress his anxiety.
Seoyang took a step forward.
Pusssss.
The forest landscape began to change from the point where my feet touched the ground.
This place was still in the Gwangmok Forest. However, the fantasy labyrinth was surrounded to prevent people from going down a side road.
This is what was real.
“pit?”
In front of them, there was a hole so large that three men could enter in one go.
I don’t know how it was dug. However, even if I looked down, I could see that it was filled with endless darkness and the depth was beyond imagination.
And from that pit, surprisingly deep wood energy was constantly leaking out.
“Just here.”
Seo-ryang looked at Yeo Sang-rin.
Yeo Sang-rin’s face was frozen.
“Do you know what this is?”
“I don’t know for sure, but I’ve heard it through rumors.”
“What?”
“It’s the seven battle tactics.”
“What is it?”
“The seven great gods of Cheonryong Palace are each martial artists named after the five elements of water, wood, fire, earth, and gold, and the yin and yang of the sun and moon.
However, martial arts that are biased toward one side, whether it is the Five Elements or Yin and Yang, are bound to fail.”
“yes.”
At first glance, Yeo Sang-rin’s ice ball can be seen as similar, but strictly speaking, Binggung’s ice ball and Shingyo’s Yeolyang ball have different textures.
Both martial arts were martial arts that could be called jeolgi (絶技) and had solid fundamentals.
It should be seen as a way to create strengths by using an unbiased background as a foundation and utilizing the unique energy.
The Seven Great Gods of Heavenly Dragon Palace were different.
To be precise, the five great gods, excluding Ilwol, were martial artists who burned off concentrated energy from the root.
So, it has a conversion speed comparable to that of magic, but if it exceeds a certain level, it hits a wall and hinders its growth.
In severe cases, you may even fall into a state of insomnia. If you look at it that way, the five great gods of Heavenly Dragon Palace can be called magicians who do not emit magical energy.
“The technique of blocking the wall of growth and suppressing collapse is called the Chilyoujip Tactic. “But I don’t know how to create such an environment.”
“is it?”
“yes. “My father said that it goes beyond simply breaking through walls and can create the optimal battlefield.”
Xiliang looked down into the pit once again.
Just by hearing the name of Heuksashin Woodworking, one could tell that it corresponds to wood energy (木氣) among the five elements. And from inside this pit, a tremendous amount of wood energy was flowing out.
If a person who has learned martial arts based on wooden weapons fights in a place like this, he will definitely be able to exert strength beyond his abilities.
As the energy overflowing from all directions increases the achievement of Neigongsimbeop, the strength, speed, and movement speed of internal force will also increase.
“Is there anything wrong? “Let’s go down first…”
At that moment, Seoryang stopped.
What held him back from trying to go down was a nightmare he had experienced a while ago. The nightmare of Ma Dong-pil and Yeo Sang-rin’s horrible deaths stopped him in his tracks.
‘no way.’
The hand holding the Cheonmado was tense, and there was a slight hesitation in my steps.
‘no. You have to admit what you have to admit. That nightmare was definitely unusual.’
Moreover, the lives of my colleagues are at stake.
‘Even if I repeat it ten or twenty times, it won’t be enough. ‘It’s too petty to put these guys in danger just to shake off their anxiety.’
Seo-ryang took a deep breath.
‘Let’s relax. There may be no one stronger than me, but there may be some more dangerous than me. Always keep that in mind.’
Wooooow.
The reigning Demon Emperor Qi subtly vibrated within his body.
‘Go in.’
Chii Iik.
The blue magic energy disappeared and red magic energy soared in its place. Guyumagong is now open.
When I pulled up Guyumagong, I definitely felt that something had changed.
This is because the gates of desire close and the gates of hell open. Beyond the difference in martial arts, even cognitive ability has changed.
Of course, Seoryang didn’t know much about the desire gate, but he could feel the subtle difference.
Xu Liang closed his eyes.
‘It’s blurry. There are at least over a hundred masters. But the exact number is unknown. The physical energy was so strong that it even clouded the masters’ pretense of popularity.’
Flash!
He opened his eyes.
“Dongpil.”
“Yes, Master Xiao.”
“You protect this place. If someone I missed jumps out of this hole or if an unknown enemy appears, it’s entirely up to you. “Be patient with everything.”
The two people exchanged looks in an instant.
Ma Dong-pil smiled. Even though he said he would leave me alone, I somehow felt reassured.
That sinister red eye glow gave me that belief.
“I follow your orders.”
“good.”
Seo-ryang looked at Yeo Sang-rin.
Yeo Sang-rin shrugged her shoulders.
“I’m telling you in advance, don’t say thank you or sorry or anything like that. I followed because it was fun…”
“What are you talking about? “You must follow me.”
“…What is your personality?”
“shut up.”
Yeo Sang-rin grumbled softly. However, she also seemed to have sensed the subtle changes in Seo-ryang, and her face became more relaxed.
Slurp.
Seoryang lowered the Cheonmado from his shoulder.
A brilliant demonic spirit appeared in his eyes as he looked down into the pit.
“stick.”
Yeo Sang-rin hugged Seo-ryang’s torso. This is because she knows very well that there is no comparison in the divine law.
Seo-ryang, holding on to Yeo Sang-rin’s waist tightly, stamped his feet.
“let’s go.”
Pop!
The two people fell into the pit.
Whiiiiing!
A huge wind blew with the force to tear the two people apart.
Xiliang’s magical eyes became even more vivid.
‘That’s amazing.’
Two people falling at an incredible speed.
Even though we descended quite deeply, it was difficult to guess where the end was. I don’t know since when this hole was dug.
It was then.
‘Deception?!’
Woooooo!!
Red demonic energy wavered all over Seo-ryang’s left arm. He slammed his arm into the wall.
Quad deud deud deuk!!
The falling speed noticeably slowed down.
Yeo Sang-rin’s eyes widened.
“Fine…?”
“Don’t open your mouth! “Bite your tongue!”
Quad deud deuk! Tuk!
Finally, their bodies stopped.
Yeo Sang-rin wiped her forehead.
“Whew, it’s been a while since I’ve felt better. But doesn’t your left arm hurt?”
“….”
“huh? “Master Su?”
“I knew it too.”
“yes?”
Seoliang, who was looking down at the bottom of the pit, frowned.
“These guys knew we were coming down.”
“Yeah… I guess so. “If you see something similar to that illusion, doesn’t that mean that the other side also knew about it?”
Oh, really?
Xu Liang cursed his stupidity. I don’t know why I didn’t think of that obvious thing.
‘Is it because of the reigning Demon Emperor?’
He shook his head. Now was not the time to think about that.
“I guess I have no choice but to take it easy when things end up like this.”
“Of course I knew that would happen, so I followed.”
“….”
“It’s because it has something to do with Tianlong Palace. “Don’t look at me like that.”
Seo-ryang exploded a bomb on his left arm, which was stuck in the wall.
Quaaaang!
With a strong explosion, the two people descended again at high speed.
It was then.
Ji-ing! Jiiiing!
A strange sound was heard and bright yellow spirits were seen soaring.
Seo-ryang threw Yeo Sang-rin upward.
Huh!
Her body floating in the air suddenly stopped. Xiliang’s airborne object lifted her into the air.
At the same time, his body was hit by a storm of morale.
Kwakwakwak!!
“Aaaah!”
“Ugh!”
A bloody scream erupts. All morale evaporated from the merciless attack and about a dozen of Heavenly Dragon’s warriors were reduced to blood clots.
Quang!
Seo-ryang’s two feet hit the floor.
‘Damn it.’
I felt like everything from my ankles to my knees and hip joints were creaking.
The internal energy released to annihilate Yeo Sang-rin in one blow and the internal energy released to keep Yeo Sang-rin floating in the air put a huge strain on the body.
But it’s okay. Ultimately, the pain and burden that was building up in my body was quickly eliminated.
If he were not an expert of the level of Seoliang, he would not have been able to survive this exquisite attack. It was such a timely and powerful attack.
Phew.
Yeo Sang-rin’s body landed gently on the floor.
“How can this be?!”
A panicked voice came from the darkness.
Seo-ryang’s red eye light and Yeo Sang-rin’s white eye light flashed at the same time.
“You were here, you moles!”
“Inform the High Priest! “It’s an enemy attack!”
“Noisy!!”
Squeeze! Qarring!
Yeo Sang-rin, who moves forward while creating a white ice storm, creating a storm of red lightning.
The martial arts skills of the two men, who attacked to the front in an instant, were so amazing that they were dazzling.
There were many warriors attacking in the dark, but thanks to the thunder light of the Wall Power Fist and the white light of the Ice Soul Beast, their vision was wide open.
Quad deuk! Fuuuuuuu!
Not even a moment had passed since the two men entered the pit, and the entire basement was in chaos.
Two men and a woman advancing at frightening speed.
Even if you didn’t see with your eyes or hear with your ears, you could tell just by their murderous intent that those gathered underground were obvious enemies. This was the reason why the two people killed each other without hesitation.
How far has it progressed like that?
‘It’s light!’
A soft light leaked out in the distance. It was the light emitted by the artificial light, night light.
Paaaaang!
The two people picked up speed and soon reached the square.
“…!”
Yeo Sang-rin’s face turned pale.
Seo-ryang’s cheeks trembled.
“These guys were really causing trouble.”
Blood flowing from the center of the square was soaking everywhere.
