Chapter 161 : The Easiest Way to Eat the Blood Cult (3)
Chapter 161 : The Easiest Way to Eat the Blood Cult (3)
The moment I saw the blow just now, I could tell.
The opponent in front of me now was on a completely different level from the opponents I had fought so far.
It wasn't just that the sword was broken.
If the current Heavenly Demon had used the boundary by subdividing it, the former Heavenly Demon had spread the boundary directly on his own body.
This was like pouring new water into a glass already full of water.
Normally, even a body that had entered the Profound Realm would surely have been broken.
How on earth was this possible for the former Heavenly Demon?
I raised the sword with the broken blade.
It was a pity that the sword made of ten-thousand-year-old ice crystal was broken, but thanks to that, I was able to save my life once, so it could be said that it was a cheap price.
The second blow was about to come.
And I had come to understand the former Heavenly Demon's strange phenomenon to some extent.
'Is he a monster?'
Because he was incomplete, he had made the impossible possible.
The former Heavenly Demon's soul is incomplete. To be more precise, the former Heavenly Demon had given his yin mind's eye to my junior sister.
In other words, what remained there was the former Heavenly Demon's yang mind's eye, that is, the shell of his body.
As I said before, a living jiangshi refers to a state where the body is dead and only the soul remains. And as time passes, the soul also disappears, and it eventually becomes a complete jiangshi.
That is the general case.
But the former Heavenly Demon had replaced the incomplete part with something new, making the incomplete complete.
That was the secret that allowed the former Heavenly Demon to maintain his reason completely, unlike the other living jiangshi of the Blood Demon.
The boundary is also made of yin and yang.
The former Heavenly Demon had achieved the harmony of yin and yang by filling the yin part he lacked with a boundary.
And such a former Heavenly Demon was now standing alone in a realm that no one in the history of the martial world had ever reached.
Because there was no human who would do such a crazy thing in the first place.
Because failure would lead directly to death.
"It's called the Heavenly Demon Three Fists, Second Form, Heavenly Dance. I hope you can block this."
"Why?"
"Because no one has ever received my third fist yet. Isn't it too sad for a person or a form to be born into the world and not be recognized by anyone?"
"Haha. Then, who is the person who has seen that second fist and survived?"
"There is none. You are the first. In fact, it all ended with the first fist."
"This is an honor."
After the answer, a quiet silence flowed between the former Heavenly Demon and me.
Although it was noisy with the sound of fighting all around, I could not hear anything other than the former Heavenly Demon's breathing now.
That's how much my concentration had reached its peak.
A state of unconsciousness that had come after a long time.
It seemed I could do anything now.
It's coming.
Before the former Heavenly Demon even moved, my senses had anticipated and captured his movement one step ahead.
In response, the former Heavenly Demon moved.
He lightly extends his fist from his position.
But the result was by no means light.
I urgently kicked off the ground and rolled my body.
Rumble.
The place where I had been disappeared without a trace, as if it had been torn apart by something.
A scene as if the space itself had disappeared.
Gulp.
Saliva was swallowed on its own.
The former Heavenly Demon, whom I had confirmed by raising my head, was pulling his arm back with his fist clenched again, as if he had never extended his fist.
'It's coming.'
Still a sense of being one step ahead.
The moment the former Heavenly Demon's arm moved, I kicked off the ground.
Crack.
This time, the ground was torn apart again, and I was able to avoid it faster than before.
"Oh. They say that if you train your future sight to the extreme, you can predict the next movement just by seeing the person breathe. What are you seeing now?"
I'm sorry to say, but even though I'm seeing him breathe, I can't see the next.
What I'm seeing is just everything I'm seeing.
The air touching my skin.
The smell that tickles my nose.
The wind that brushes past my hair.
The presence of the things that exist around me.
Again, the former Heavenly Demon extended his fist, and I avoided it. Faster and more concisely.
And through the various presences I was feeling, I could know exactly what the former Heavenly Demon was doing now.
He extends his fourth fist.
The former Heavenly Demon was not just sending it with energy.
Although the empty space seems to exist as nothing, it is just that it is not visible to the eye and cannot be touched, but many things exist in the empty space.
In other words, the empty space was also a medium full of something.
And the fact that it clearly exists meant that it was achieving the harmony of yin and yang, which is the basis of the world.
That fist of the former Heavenly Demon was a power that completely destroyed that basis, to exaggerate a little, a power that twisted the providence.
Of course, this was an exaggeration, and to explain it simply.
"A method of forcibly pushing yin energy into a space where the harmony of yin and yang is achieved, and forcibly breaking the harmony."
The result is that the space itself seems to have disappeared.
"Oh! To see through this, it's amazing. But what can you do about it?"
As expected, the former Heavenly Demon was accurately aware of the problem I was facing now.
"Do you know why this is called the Heavenly Dance?"
Just because you know the principle, it doesn't mean you know the way to break it.
That one fist was not just energy.
A blow that destroys the space itself.
Therefore, it was impossible to block or resist it.
"I'll show you from now on."
Unlike before, the Heavenly Demon's body is full of strength.
My instinct is.
'It's coming.'
The feeling is.
'Something bigger than before.'
Danger signals were being sent like crazy.
"Please don't die."
The Heavenly Demon extended his fist.
The difference from before was that he was extending his arm so fast that it was not visible, many times.
Heavenly Dance.
A blow of martial arts that covers the sky.
There was no place to run for a human standing in front of the sky.
I looked at the illusions of the countless fists that were swallowing the space and flying, and I raised my sword.
If it were the mister who knew me, he would never have thrown such an attack at me.
Because I am the only person in the martial world who knows how to move the yin mind's eye somewhere, just like the mister.
An attack that makes the space itself a yin domain.
The way to break it is very simple if you think about it.
In the end, if you achieve harmony again, the attack itself is nullified.
I recalled the sensation of giving my junior sister the yin mind's eye, and I sealed my yin mind's eye by pushing it deep into a corner of my body.
Then the familiar sensation of my stomach hurting washed over my body.
Slice.
The sword and the fist touch.
The former Heavenly Demon's fist, full of yin energy, is offset by my sword strike, full of yang energy, as the harmony of yin and yang is achieved.
After swinging like that for a long time and offsetting even the last fist, I looked at the former Heavenly Demon.
I saw him looking at me with surprised eyes.
"You are the only one who has received my attack in this way."
"Is that so?"
It was you who taught me this method.
"Amazing. By the way, can you tell me how much time has passed since I died?"
Oh. I never thought he would even be aware that he was dead.
"About 20 years have passed."
"20 years. A lot has passed. Above all, as a former leader, I am very happy now that there is a martial artist like you in the Divine Cult."
Roar.
For a moment, the nature of the energy emanating from the former leader changed.
If it was calm and quiet until now, now it was as fierce as an angry wild boar.
If I were to find a comparison, yes, it was similar to when the current Heavenly Demon was angry.
"If I use this, I will become no different from other jiangshi. And you will be the one to liberate me."
"Excuse me, sir. It's not me, but I'll bring the current Heavenly Demon, so can you wait a moment?"
"No. I've already released the limit."
"Ahaha. Then I can't help it."
"This is just a side note, but as I keep looking at you like this, you look strangely familiar. Have you perhaps seen me in the past?"
"I have, but you probably don't remember. You said you don't remember the past. And I was young then."
"Young?"
"Yes. I saw you when I was two or three."
"Do you remember things from that age?"
"I'm a child prodigy, you see. My mom said I started talking a week after I was born, started walking a month after, and two months after..."
-Jin-sung! Look at this! My kid is calling me mom!
There was a being called a divine maiden in the Divine Cult. And as you can tell from the text, the divine maiden was lost.
-Divine maiden, you should call me Leader, not Jin-sung. I'm still above you.
-What are you talking about? You're weaker than me. Do you want to get beaten up?
-Ahem. S-So what is your child doing?
The Mad World Heavenly Demon, Yoo Jin-sung, had few people he could open his heart to. It was because of his position, and everyone was afraid of him.
Just two people.
Except for his closest friend and that friend's wife.
-Now! Look. Jae-ha, say mom.
-Mom!
-Hohoho! See! My kid is a genius, right?
-Didn't you say he was just a year old?
-That's right! I'll show you again. Jae-ha, perform the Heavenly Demon's Reigning Steps.
-Divine maiden, don't joke around...
-Bbya!
-Huh?
-See! See! See! My Jae-ha is a genius!
A rare genius who started talking a month after he was born, started walking two months after, started running three months after, started practicing qi circulation four months after, and after a year, he had learned the Heavenly Demon Divine Art and had even performed the Heavenly Demon's Reigning Steps on his own.
She had left the Divine Cult on her own to protect the Divine Cult.
-Jin-sung, I'm sorry. I probably can't stay in the Divine Cult. If I stay in the Divine Cult, the Divine Cult won't be safe either.
He learned later that the reason she had left was because of the Chaotic Heavenly Society.
A few years passed, and Yoo Jin-sung was able to meet her and his friend again.
Fortunately, the two of them were living an ordinary life.
And their child was three years old.
-Mister, what? Why are you looking at our house with triangular eyes? Do you want to get beaten up?
Two people who had asked him, the current Heavenly Demon and the strongest Heavenly Demon in history, if he wanted to get beaten up.
-Is your name perhaps Jae-ha?
-Yeah!
-Mister is your mom and dad's friend, can you guide me to the house?
-Then, are you the Heavenly Demon-Nobody?
-W-Well, yes.
-The pushover who gets beaten up by my mom every day?
-P-Pushover is a bit much.
-Alright. Mister, seeing that the Heavenly Demon Divine Art in me is reacting, it seems you are the Heavenly Demon.
-Uh, child?
-Not child, Jae-ha. My name.
-Yes, Jae-ha. The Heavenly Demon Divine Art can only be learned by the young leader and the leader of the Divine Cult from generation to generation.
-So?
-It's a very big deal that you, who are not the young leader, are learning it.
-My mom knew it even though she wasn't the young leader.
-T-That's because her position is special. Ahem!
-Alright. What kind of Heavenly Demon is so pathetic. I thought he was all majestic and stuff.
-You're also quite foul-mouthed for a three-year-old.
-My mom said that a fine Demonic Path person should be like this.
-If the divine maiden says so, then it is so.
-Mister, then I'll be the young leader or something. I'm worried about the future of the Divine Cult if a pushover like you is the leader.
-T-Thank you for being so considerate.
The Mad World Heavenly Demon Yoo Jin-sung asked.
"What is your name?"
"It's Yoo Jae-ha."
"I see."
The past is not yet over.
-Jae-ha will save the world later. Because he's a genius
