The Regressed Young Master’s Guide to Living on Easy Mode

Chapter 160 : The Easiest Way to Eat the Blood Cult (2)

I've never had good luck with draws since I was young.

That's why I had expected that the living jiangshi might not be my share.

And this time, as expected, the prediction became a reality.

Even I couldn't have predicted this kind of situation.

The Mad World Heavenly Demon, Yoo Jin-sung.

A person known to be the strongest in the entire history of the martial world, both in name and reality.

Although nothing is known for sure about his martial prowess, looking at his achievements alone, I can be sure that he is among the top three in the entire martial world.

And the Mad World Heavenly Demon, the mister, was definitely dead. I could be sure of this. Because I had met the dead mister in person.

Then whose soul is in there?

"Mister?"

A living jiangshi is generally known to be a living person made into a jiangshi.

But that doesn't mean that a living jiangshi is alive. To be precise, the body is dead, but the soul has not yet left.

In other words, the exact definition of a living jiangshi was a person in a state of suspended animation who had been turned into a jiangshi.

In the end, because the body was dead, even a living jiangshi would eventually become like a jiangshi as time passed.

I had one thing that bothered me here.

The mister had definitely said that he had left his soul to my junior sister. And he had told me that in the process of my junior sister giving me the yin mind's eye, a loss had occurred and his soul had not been completely sent.

What if.

What if my junior sister had completely handed over her soul from the beginning?

The junior sister I know is not a person who makes mistakes.

Then the one assumption I mentioned earlier comes out.

On the assumption that my junior sister did not make a mistake.

What if the process of transferring the soul was not complete in the first place?

Wouldn't the rest be in there?

Originally, the soul in a living jiangshi disappears as time passes. And it becomes a dog that listens well to its master.

The soul follows the body.

But the body in there was not just a body.

One of the few bodies that had reached the end of causality.

Can that be expressed simply as a body?

If what I'm predicting now is correct, I might be able to give my junior sister a real family.

To do that, I have to get rid of the obstacles first.

Four figures emitting a red energy.

They all had red hair, and something like madness was in their eyes.

On the contrary, the mister was watching the situation with a very calm expression. Above all, looking at those clear pupils, it seemed as if a soul was dwelling in them.

'For now, I'll strike quickly.'

Because even if I set aside the four Blood Demons, it would be troublesome if the mister joined the fight.

The martial art that the Blood Demon has learned is the Blood Demon Divine Art.

Unlike other qi arts, it is characterized by a qi that moves as if it were alive.

"Do you know how to calm a rampaging qi?"

Although there was no way an answer would come, I asked them. I was checking to see if they had a mind.

"You just have to set a limit to the qi."

A kind of application of the Profound Manifestation.

To prohibit the use of the great meridians and to use only the fine meridians.

I spread the Reversal of Heaven Boundary.

Reversal Boundary.

At that moment, the red energy that was emanating from the Blood Demons' bodies began to gradually decrease.

On the contrary, I was in a state where I had strengthened the muscles of my whole body through my fine meridians before spreading the Reversal Boundary.

Press.

I press the ground with my feet and lower my center of gravity.

I couldn't find any big changes in the four in front of me.

Without any waste of power.

Swish.

I kick off the ground.

The phenomenon of sand scattering due to the dispersion of force did not appear.

Instead, the air naturally split left and right, creating a path.

A perfect harmony of power and grain.

–

Yoo Jae-ha arrived in front of the four Blood Demons in an instant.

The movements of the four Blood Demons were not bad. They all surrounded Yoo Jae-ha in the north, south, east, and west.

And although they seemed to be fumbling at first because they were prohibited from using their internal energy, the actions they were showing now were a sign that they had adapted to this situation.

It was also an advantage of the jiangshi, who are not greatly affected by the situation.

Yoo Jae-ha, as if he had expected this situation, extended his fist half a beat faster with his eyes half-open.

When his arm was almost fully extended, Yoo Jae-ha's eyes widen. Such a Yoo Jae-ha's pupils had turned slender.

This was a symptom of having exerted the 3rd stage of the Profound Manifestation.

Yoo Jae-ha tilted his head, looking at his fist and the Blood Demon who had blocked it from the front.

"You blocked this?"

Without a moment to think about the question, Yoo Jae-ha kicked off his position and distanced himself from the Blood Demons at the attacks pouring in from three directions.

Yoo Jae-ha looked down at his fist. It was swollen red. The tingling pain was felt, and although there was no problem with the bone, it seemed that the ligament was at least damaged.

"It's not a living jiangshi for nothing, is it?"

When a person dies, the body becomes hard. This is called rigor mortis. The strength at this time is reminiscent of a steel frame.

And the time this rigor mortis is maintained is about three to six shichen.

After that, the rigor mortis is released, and it returns to its original strength.

The jiangshi-fication process takes place at this time.

A completed jiangshi has a strength that is not even scratched by a sword qi.

Let alone a living jiangshi, which is said to be the best among the jiangshi.

At the very least, that body now would only get a slight scratch even if it were stabbed with a powerful qi.

"It's been a long time since I've dealt with a jiangshi. I had forgotten."

Yoo Jae-ha immediately released the Reversal Boundary.

And he immediately raised his energy and placed his palm on the face of the first Blood Demon. And he extended his hand in the opposite direction and placed his palm on the face of the second Blood Demon.

The Twin Poles of a two-way spray.

However, the form was a little different from what he had shown so far.

In his left palm, there was yang qi, and in his right palm, there was yin qi.

The original Twin Poles is an attack that is biased towards extreme yang.

Therefore, after performing the Twin Poles, a side effect washes over the body, and one becomes unable to move for a while.

This is the original, perfect form of the Twin Poles, where the harmony of yin and yang is achieved.

Drip.

The head of the Blood Demon on the left melts as it is. The remaining body falls to the ground with a thud. The Blood Demon on the right is frozen solid. Crack, the ice breaks, and the Blood Demon's body also breaks.

The remaining two Blood Demons rush in, covered in blood scales.

Screech.

Yoo Jae-ha immediately drew his sword.

And again.

Reversal Boundary.

He spread it.

As the use of internal energy was prohibited, the Blood Demon's blood scales are released. Confirming that, he released the Reversal Boundary again.

On the smooth iron sword, a sword qi, and then a powerful qi, ripples.

Slice.

With one swing, the neck of the third Blood Demon is cut off.

Slice.

When he spins around and swings his sword backwards, the neck of the fourth Blood Demon is also cut off.

The four Blood Demons who had died so easily.

In a way, this was a matter of course.

The fact that their minds were taken by the Blood Demon qi meant that their martial prowess had not reached the Profound Realm in the first place.

In the first place, there was no way they could be a match for Yoo Jae-ha, who had entered the complete Profound Realm.

Yoo Jae-ha now aimed his sword at the last remaining opponent. A seriousness that was quite different from when he had dealt with the Blood Demons just now was evident on his face.

"Is it a boundary?"

And a voice was heard.

Unlike the four Blood Demons who had already died, the former Heavenly Demon Yoo Jin-sung was manifesting his own will.

Yoo Jae-ha's eyes widen in surprise.

"You seem to be a great master. In my time, there were only three martial artists in the entire martial world who had entered a boundary. To think that such a young martial artist can use a boundary so freely."

"Do you remember?"

"What do you mean?"

"When you were alive."

"It's blurry. But I remember that I was the Heavenly Demon. The reason you are being polite to me... are you perhaps a disciple of the Divine Cult?"

"Yes. That's right."

"Oh. To think that there is such a promising young man in the Divine Cult, I am relieved as a former Heavenly Demon."

"No. I am still lacking in many ways."

A smile appears on the former Heavenly Demon's face.

"Excellent."

The words coming out of the former Heavenly Demon's mouth were full of sincerity.

"And I will apologize in advance for what I am about to say. I'm sorry, child of the Divine Cult."

The former Heavenly Demon raises his sword and takes a stance. Yoo Jae-ha could tell what kind of form that was at once. In the first place, there was no way he wouldn't know.

Heavenly Demon Three Swords, First Form, Heavenly Killing.

A simple but a technique that maximized the thrust.

The sharpest spear that pierces everything that exists in this world.

"In the martial world I was in, only ten people survived after being hit by this thrust."

—

Gulp.

I could roughly guess who they were. It must be the ten great martial artists who are called the strongest in both the Righteous and Demonic Factions.

And I could vaguely know.

That the seal of internal energy through the boundary that I had used on the Blood Demons would not work.

The Heavenly Demon, who I could tell from the conversation just now, knew about the existence of the boundary. This meant one thing. That he was a master who had reached the complete Profound Realm like me.

In my eyes now, I could see what the Heavenly Demon was doing.

The small boundary that the current Heavenly Demon had shown before.

The former Heavenly Demon was showing a sophisticated application that was one step ahead of them.

-Jae-ha, if it were me in my prime, I could subdue you with just a simple thrust.

I thought it was a lie, but it seems it was true.

Five small boundaries were spread along the former Heavenly Demon's sword and arm.

In the first small boundary, there was acceleration.

In the second small boundary, there was weighting.

In the third small boundary, there was aiming.

In the fourth small boundary, there was output.

In the fifth small boundary, the law of tuning was applied.

To break that, one had to perform the small boundaries of reverse acceleration, reverse weighting, reverse aiming, reverse output, and reverse tuning in order without any deviation.

Of course, it was impossible to do this in this short time.

The moment the sleeve of his arm seemed to shake.

Swoosh.

The sword rushed in.

I extended my sword.

"Oh! I was wondering, but to think that you were the young leader."

What I had performed was the same Heavenly Demon Three Swords, First Form, Heavenly Killing as the former Heavenly Demon.

I couldn't think of anything other than the same Heavenly Killing to block the Heavenly Killing.

However, unlike the former Heavenly Demon who had perfectly complemented the Heavenly Killing by dividing it into 5 stages, I had focused on only one thing.

Speed.

An absurd action that could only come out because I believed in the strength of the sword I was holding.

As expected, the tips of the sword and the sword met.

The energy collided first, and sparks flew, and after the energy was stripped away, the sword and the sword really collided.

Crack.

And the Heavenly Demon's sword was splitting in half.

The sword I was holding now was a sword made of the ten-thousand-year-old ice crystal left by the Sword Emperor.

"It's a good sword."

The Heavenly Demon, seeing the sword approaching, cutting his own sword, purely praised his opponent. And the moment the sword touched the hilt.

"The joke is over."

The former Heavenly Demon let go of the sword from his hand.

Huh? Come to think of it, I suddenly remembered.

-Jae-ha. Most people think of me as a swordsman, but in fact, I'm a real martial artist, and I learned the sword as a hobby. In that sense, the Twin Poles you showed me is a bit lacking.

A clenched fist.

A lightly pulled arm.

A simple, rough straight punch extending from there.

Boom.

The sword made of the ten-thousand-year-old ice crystal bends.

Clang!

Then the sword breaks.

"Heavenly Demon Three Fists, First Form, Limitless."

Right away, the former Heavenly Demon began to take his second stance.
