Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 349
Episode 349 Awakening (4)
The sound of breathing quieted little by little.
“I can see it now.”
Kwak So-gyo’s words made Xiliang shiver.
“I can see it now. “Who are you?”
“Do you understand?”
“Okay, now I understand.”
Kwak So-gyo paused for a moment and his evil eyes flashed.
“How did you do it?”
“I do not know.”
“You don’t know?”
“It just happened that way.”
He died as King of Death Cheon Ha-jin and woke up as Seo-ryang, the Three Dukes of the Heavenly Demon Church.
Kwak So-gyo thought that such a divorce was impossible except through extreme techniques.
Do people die and be reincarnated? Reincarnation?
There is no such thing. When a person, animal, or plant dies, it returns to the ground and disperses. The corpse rots and becomes nourishment for the land, animals eat the plants that grow from the land, and those animals are then eaten by humans.
That’s the cycle. Although Guo Xiaoqiao had fallen into the evil way of evil, he had a clear understanding of the providence of this world. Because going against that providence is Sima Mao’s way.
In other words, Seo-ryang approached the concept of immortality that not only Kwak So-gyo but also the Four Gods ultimately pursued. If the soul can transfer to another body even if the head falls off, that is immortality and going against providence.
“Nothing just happens that way. “Everything in this world has a clear causal relationship.”
Although he achieved the pinnacle of boatmanship and lost his humanity, Kwak So-gyo’s knowledge and enlightenment did not go anywhere.
Seo-ryang saw himself in Kwak So-gyo’s appearance.
I saw myself as a different person from the past, who only pursued infinite freedom, but with new relationships and a heightened level of martial arts.
‘I see.’
Kwak So-gyo realized. I realized that the opponent was truly Cheon Ha-jin, a reaper who had gained notoriety throughout the central plains as the best killer in the world.
And the moment she realized, Seoryang also realized.
‘I am no longer Cheon Ha-jin.’
He raised the reigning devil flag over Guyu Demon Duke. When he dealt with Guo Xiaoqiao with the Demon Emperor of the Emperor and the Heavenly Demon Road, he was no longer encroached upon by excessive killing.
I thought it was because of the difference in magic, but it wasn’t.
There is no Cheon Ha-jin anymore. The resentment that Cheon Ha-jin left behind remained, but he could no longer become Cheon Ha-jin.
Because I gained valuable things that I didn’t know at the time.
Because the life I have lived for a little over two years as Seoryang has been much more independent than the fifty years I lived as Cheon Ha-jin.
Because he saw his limitations and growth in such a life, he was no longer Cheon Ha-jin. He was truly born again.
If Guyumagong symbolizes the resentment left behind from his previous life, then Gunrimmawanggi is the martial arts that symbolizes his era in which he will create a new life.
Slurp.
The blue lightning that had been traveling through Xiliang’s body little by little lost its power.
Grumbling.
A red energy emerged from his right eye. It is to use the reigning Demon Emperor and the Guyu Demon Attack at the same time.
As Cheon Ha-jin, he used Guyu Demon Gong against him, and when he realized that he could not win, he used the Reign Demon Emperor Qi to continue the match on equal terms.
And now I use both.
Holding my past self, my present self, and another Heavenly Demon who will become a future demi-god, I aim my sword at my past enemy.
‘….’
Kwak So-gyo’s eyes wavered.
Zuo Qingwuhong’s eyes were very deep, as if he had come to some kind of realization. The burning anger was still there, but it was not swept away by it, and the spreading majesty was intense, but there was a human being within it.
“Do you want to be the best in the world?”
Kwak So-gyo flinched at Seo-ryang’s words.
Xu Liang smiled. It was a strange smile, as if he had embraced everything and had shaken off everything.
“I can’t do even one thing, so the best person in the world is freezing to death.”
“What?”
“Right now, Old Man Dam and Song Seongju are probably not below you. Moreover, the political faction has a political god, and our school has a demon god who puts them all under his feet.”
Grumble!
A menacing flash of lightning erupted around Cheonmado Island, filled with red-hot flames. It was the thunder fire of two magicians.
“It’s a pity. “If you had been born in a different era without us, you would definitely have been the best in the world.”
“…Shut up.”
“You struggled as hard as you could, but you got there in the end.”
“I told you to shut up!”
Kwak So-gyo, who had been swearing, raised his hand. The nails were overflowing with a vicious poison and were emitting a menacing, deadly force.
But why?
For some reason, Kwak Xiaoqiao could not easily take his steps. I should have rushed in and skinned that damn thing’s face, but all I could do was flinch. ‘
There are so many
gaps….’
It seemed like they could win if they rushed in right away and poured in Sasadokjo, Biyoeumjang Strangulation, and Four Hwangpa. I was drawing a plan in my head where I could throw away the knife and deliver a direct hit to the right upper arm of the abdomen and chest.
But my instincts tell me not to move. They say you shouldn’t move.
The moment he attacked, he had an ominous feeling that all the killing techniques he had come up with would be shattered.
“Are you scared?”
“profit!”
“Do you know why I called your boatman half-hearted?”
“shut up!”
“In order to reach a higher level, whether it is spiritual, magical, or evil, you need training, experience, and suffering. But you excluded all of that and forcibly raised your level.”
Kwak So-gyo’s eyes wavered.
That guy knew exactly how he got to where he is now.
There was disgust in Seo-ryang’s eyes.
“Even the religious leader who transcended human limitations and entered the ranks of gods could not escape the human framework. When a person wants to achieve something, he or she must put in a certain amount of effort. “Any other method is an apostle.”
“I’ll rip your snout off!”
“Whether they swing their fists, kill people, or struggle with mental pain, the growth of those who fail to pursue their goals will inevitably be ruined.”
“Noisy!”
“It may work for those below you, but to those who see the same scenery as you, your martial arts skills are no different from a sword without a handle. “It’s very sharp, but you can’t really swing it.”
“pup! “You talk about what you know!”
“Because I can see it. Your martial arts skills have grown, but your soul has actually weakened. “I was more scared of you back then when you were trying so hard to gain the martial arts skills of the old faction.”
Xu Liang smiled.
“At least you had desire back then. “The desires of a human being.”
Kwak So-gyo’s eyes wavered.
Xu Liang took a deep breath.
“As the king of flesh, I have resolved my resentment and as the person who will become the heir of the clan, I have seen your limits.”
Huh.
Xu Liang stretched out his left hand forward.
Kwak Xiaoqiao flinched once again. Even though it was a movement with no apparent intention, it kept getting on my mind.
The posture of Seoryang, with the left arm extended forward and the Cheonmado naturally lowered to the bottom.
It was like the cardinal formula of Dancheon Samdo or the cardinal formula of Inhwadobeop.
It was also like the Noeongong 10,000 mile approach and the Gujung Demon Geomse.
“I’ve brushed it all off and experienced it all, so let’s end it now.”
Ugh!
Kwak So-gyo, who had been hesitant, finally took the first step.
I had doubts that it might be too urgent. I also had doubts that I may have applied too much force. I was also anxious about whether the attack would work properly.
Still, Kwak So-gyo ran.
‘I will definitely kill that guy!’
He secretly kills those he finds offensive and lowers his tail in front of those he finds difficult to fight. If he felt that he was an opponent he could no matter what he did, he would not hesitate to run away.
King Biyo lived like that. That’s how I survived.
For the first time, she didn’t run away from someone she shouldn’t have faced. The exhilarating fear and unpleasant joy raised her morale even higher.
‘die!’
Kwak So-gyo’s fingernails touched Seo-ryang’s neck.
At that time, Seoryang’s body moved.
Suddenly!
“Kuhuh…”
Kwak Xiaoqiao’s abdomen widened.
It was cut horizontally without even an inch of tilt. Internal organs were about to spill out of the split stomach.
‘Sigh!’
He closed his abdomen with the Four Hwanggeukcheongi and attempted to recover with extreme morale. At the same time, he turned his body and struck Seo-ryang.
Whoa!
Four wounds appeared on Seo-ryang’s chest. The furrow was deep and deep enough to cut through the flesh and even tear the muscle.
Xu Liang swung his sword indifferently.
Suddenly! Suddenly!
Kwak So-gyo’s body was cut diagonally twice.
Instinctively, I took half a step back, avoiding my body being torn apart, but getting seriously hurt again. There was no bleeding due to the heat from the sword, but Seoryang’s power penetrating through the wound made her lose consciousness.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
Xu Liang vomited blood and retreated. My heart was hit hard by the rainy sound field.
Tieeing!
I even missed Cheonmado. The Cheonmado that had fallen to the ground was trembling. They are provoking each other to kill the other, but in reality, both of them have lost their strength.
‘Oh no…’
I thought I could kill him with three cuts, but was I wrong?
Phew!
Kwak So-gyo came right in front of us.
The unique, sinister look in his eyes aroused an unknown feeling in his slightly dazed eyes.
A faint smile appeared on Seo-ryang’s face.
‘Not only the martial arts skills, but also the person has become half.’
thank god. I was really fortunate.
I can’t believe that the person I wanted to kill was so devastated. Even though I had let go of all my resentment, the joy and pleasure was still there.
Pow! Pow! Quack!
The two people swung their fists at each other.
Skin was torn and bones were broken. The internal strength was gradually weakening, and the speed of swinging fists was also noticeably slowing down.
puck! puck! puck!
At some point, the surroundings became quiet.
Not only Gorumazon and Gwangsoul Gok Cheon-sak, who were fighting once again, but also the two spirit creatures and the masters of Jinma Dae’s current stage, looked at the two with tired eyes.
Phew!
“crane!”
Kwak So-gyo trembled. Seo-ryang’s index finger pierced one of her eyes.
puck!
Seo-ryang’s body tilted to the right. Guo Xiaoqiao’s spear, which he swung carelessly, struck his ear. Blood was flowing out of the ear where the eardrum was ruptured.
‘what?’
I suddenly lost my balance. It felt like the ground was rising rather than my body falling down.
‘It’s over…’
Is it over? Did I win?
is not it? Did you lose?
At that moment, a terrible demonic spirit appeared in Xiliang’s eyes.
“Kaaaaak!”
Kwasik!
He roared like an animal and grabbed Guo Xiaoqiao’s head.
I didn’t know where that power came from. A small surprise appeared on Guo Xiaoqiao’s tired face.
Pow!
Kwak So-gyo’s face was smashed into a mess by the powerful slash.
Kwak So-gyo, who was retreating while vomiting blood, grabbed her hair even as she stumbled. This was to keep Kwak So-gyo from moving away and at the same time maintain his body’s balance.
With my shaking fists, I gathered and gathered all the strength that had already been exhausted.
Bye! puck! puck!
Seo-ryang, who had been beating Kwak So-gyo mercilessly, crawled and hugged her neck. I didn’t even have the strength to get up.
‘Uh…’
Kwak So-gyo looks up blankly at the sky with his only eye.
Little by little, the life drained from her eyes. No matter how much of a master you are, you cannot make up for the amount of blood you have shed by using internal energy.
‘More than I thought…’
Kwak So-gyo opened his mouth.
‘Is it comfortable?’
What can I say? I felt very unfair, angry, and shaken.
However, the death I faced before my eyes was not as scary or terrible as I thought.
“Crrrrrrrrr.”
Blood also flowed from Kwak So-gyo’s nose and mouth. The force that penetrated through the shattered face traveled through the esophagus and tore open the stomach.
She thought.
‘But who was this guy?’
Quack!
Her thoughts went no further.
“Ugh!”
As if to avenge what had happened to her in the past, Seo-ryang ripped Kwak So-gyo’s entire cervical spine apart and raised her head and cried.
He no longer looked like a person.
