Chapter 162 : The Easiest Way to Eat the Blood Cult (4)

I vaguely remembered.

There, I was defeated and was waiting for my impending death.

And as if I had anticipated this defeat, I had even taken some measures to plan for the future.

Thinking about it now, it was a truly foolish act.

To postpone one's own work to others.

Was that really a justifiable act for a Heavenly Demon?

Because I had no memory of that time, I couldn't know what kind of feeling I had made such a decision with.

But I could never imagine surrendering to someone.

Because that is the Heavenly Demon.

"I'm sorry."

Even though I knew who my opponent was, what I had to do was set.

Because I am the Heavenly Demon.

Because I am a being who should never be allowed to be defeated.

The Mad World Heavenly Demon, Yoo Jin-sung, created a third fist that he had not completed when he was alive.

The first condition.

To eliminate the distance between the opponent and myself.

"Fault Boundary."

The world we live in is made up of 4 dimensions.

You draw a dot on a pure white drawing paper.

Then only one dot exists on the drawing paper.

That is called the 1st dimension.

You draw two dots at the ends of the drawing paper and connect them. The drawing paper is divided into two spaces with the line as the center.

The differentiation of dimensions, that is called the 2nd dimension.

You fold the drawing paper that has been divided in half. A new concept of height is added to the space that exists outside the plane.

The three-dimensionalization of dimensions, that is called the 3rd dimension.

And there, you overlap another 3-dimensional drawing paper and draw a dot at the same position. That dot exists at the same position and is on a different drawing paper.

In other words, a new concept of time has been added to the world where only space and space existed.

That is the world we live in now, the 4th dimension.

What Yoo Jin-sung was trying to do now was to forcibly downgrade the dimension.

If you attack in a 4-dimensional world, the opponent has various options to avoid it. Because in a 4-dimensional world, the opponent and I have different spatial and temporal zones.

Yoo Jin-sung had temporarily downgraded the 4-dimensional space to 3 dimensions by spreading a fault boundary.

As a result, the opponent and I were in the same time zone.

What this meant was, for example, if Yoo Jin-sung attacked, the opponent would surely be hit by that attack.

Because that is the causality that happens in the same time zone.

But it wasn't that the opponent had no means to block the attack.

Because although the time zone was the same, the spatial zone was still different.

If a straight, planar attack comes, you can avoid it with a three-dimensional movement using height.

But this was not a perfect means.

Because if an attack comes from two directions, a straight line and a height, it will surely hit the opponent.

And Yoo Jin-sung had thoroughly eliminated even such variables.

The technique that the current Heavenly Demon, Hyuk Sa-wol, had used before.

The application of the second law of the boundary.

A double fault.

A law that forcibly confines each other to a 2-dimensional plane by eliminating the height from the spatial zone.

As a result, they were placed on a single line.

It was the moment when an attack zone from which one could not escape to any place was completed.

* * *

The boundary spreads.

I could tell that this was different from the boundaries I had fought so far.

First, movement was restricted.

I couldn't move in any direction other than forward and backward.

The former Heavenly Demon and I were exactly on a straight line.

Whoosh.

The former Heavenly Demon's bangs sway in the blowing wind. At the same time, the wind blew on my bangs.

Is it a coincidence?

I cast my gaze a little higher. A leaf was falling.

And a leaf was also falling on my side.

This is also a coincidence...

I could tell that this was by no means a coincidence. Because in a boundary, causality is always applied to what happens.

Then what is the law that applies to this boundary?

It was not a type that restricted the body like the reversal of heaven. Then it must be a type that affects the surrounding environment like Cheongcheonju's three-step severance.

The former Heavenly Demon was pulling his arm back with a horse stance.

The same stance as the second fist.

But I guessed that something completely different from the second would come.

It was impossible to avoid in a situation like this.

In the first place, I couldn't avoid it.

Then all I could do was to strike back.

In a fight between a sword and a fist, the sword is usually advantageous. The reason is that because the sword is thinner than a rough fist, it can have various movements.

To be more precise, it had the huge advantage of being able to avoid a frontal confrontation.

Avoid and cut.

Now, a situation where the former process of avoiding has become impossible, I threw away the sword that had no advantage.

Just then, the former Heavenly Demon extended his arm.

'It's coming!'

I opened my eyes wide.

What I saw was not a fist, but a palm.

And a huge wave of qi was approaching, covering the front.

I could immediately figure out what the former Heavenly Demon's intention was.

'He's planning to crush me with his energy.'

I released the energy of my whole body to resist the approaching energy.

Rumble.

My energy and the former Heavenly Demon's energy met. A heavy weight was transmitted. I bent one knee.

'This is not on the level of being heavy.'

A feeling that the source that makes up the energy is different.

A confrontation continued for a while. And I could find out what the identity of this energy was.

Earth.

The energy located below everything, and the hardest and heaviest energy that can support any creation.

Drag.

I began to be pushed back little by little. A sensation of my back being blocked by something was transmitted. And I was no longer pushed back.

It seemed I had reached the end of the space.

The energy continued to wash over me, who had no place to retreat.

My energy was gradually being pushed back by the Heavenly Demon's energy.

At this rate, it was only a matter of time before my body was crushed by that energy.

'I'll die at this rate.'

At that moment, a thought came to me. Honestly, I was not sure if it would succeed or not, but in the current situation, there were no other options.

I released my energy at once.

The former Heavenly Demon's energy washed over me as it was.

I cast aside my fixed ideas.

That my back was not blocked, but open.

Crash.

The prediction was exactly right.

The sound of something invisible breaking was heard from behind.

I still did not resist the energy and entrusted my body to the flow. Then, along with the energy, I was pushed back.

The energy that seemed to be powerful gradually lost its momentum as I was pushed back, and at some point, the flow was completely cut off.

Without a moment to rejoice that my intention was right, swish, I kicked off my feet.

Because I had to close the distance before the second attack came.

Because the former Heavenly Demon's one blow completely covered the front. And with that just now, the former Heavenly Demon must have also figured out my intention.

If not this time, I might not have a chance to reduce the distance with the former Heavenly Demon at all.

Fortunately, I was able to reach the front of the former Heavenly Demon with one kick of my foot.

I saw the former Heavenly Demon's calm eyes with my slightly raised head.

Such a former Heavenly Demon was already extending his second blow.

I extended my arm as it was and clasped my hands with the former Heavenly Demon's open hand.

"If you do this, you won't be able to emit palm force, right?"

"If I emit it in this state, my body will explode in reverse."

He had blocked the exit of the palm force. The huge release of energy like just now was completely blocked.

"An excellent countermeasure. I never would have thought of such a method. But child of the later generation."

A close-quarters fight.

The very basis of the basics that form the foundation of martial arts.

"I have never lost a fight at this distance."

The former Heavenly Demon twisted his arm as it was. Yoo Jae-ha's body tilted. The former Heavenly Demon then tripped him. Yoo Jae-ha's body was completely in the air, and crack, the former Heavenly Demon brought his arm down from above.

Boom!

The floor shatters into pieces, and Yoo Jae-ha's body, which had collided, bounces off the floor like a freshly caught live fish from the water. The former Heavenly Demon, in that state, snatches Yoo Jae-ha's arm and begins to spin. Then, when he lets go of his hand, Yoo Jae-ha's body flies into the air. The former Heavenly Demon immediately kicks off his feet and chases after Yoo Jae-ha, then raises his leg vertically and brings it down as it is.

Crack!

With his waist bent in half, Yoo Jae-ha is buried in the ground. The former Heavenly Demon, who had landed on the ground, kicks Yoo Jae-ha's body again, and Yoo Jae-ha flies into the air again. At that moment, Yoo Jae-ha spreads his body and stops his body in the air, then lands on the ground.

Blood was flowing from the mouth of Yoo Jae-ha, who had been hit one-sidedly. Nevertheless, he was grinning.

The blow just now.

It was clearly a 3-dimensional attack based on height that came from a 2-dimensional space where only horizontal existed.

After the former Heavenly Demon changed the form of the fight to a close-quarters fight, the restriction of the fault boundary had weakened.

It seemed that maintaining the boundary while fighting in close quarters was too much even for the former Heavenly Demon.

'Forcing a dimension is not easy.'

In the first place, it was surprising that he could force a dimension!

Yoo Jae-ha sat down completely. And he jumped up high as it was.

With a crashing sound like before, Yoo Jae-ha's body soared even higher.

The former Heavenly Demon also immediately followed Yoo Jae-ha.

A weakened boundary.

Yoo Jae-ha twisted his body in the air and dived down.

The former Heavenly Demon's attack brushed past his body and missed.

This also meant something else.

That their time zones had become different.

Yoo Jae-ha had instinctively realized that.

Thud.

Yoo Jae-ha, who had landed on the ground, raised his head.

The Heavenly Demon, who was floating in the air, looked down.

A situation where their positions were completely reversed, unlike before.

Yoo Jae-ha extended his palm upwards, and the former Heavenly Demon's eyes widened at once.

He urgently turned his head left and right.

"Hahaha!"

And he suddenly laughed.

"Excellent!"

He never would have imagined that he would be hit by his own attack.

The former Heavenly Demon had momentarily realized that the young man had reconstructed the dimension.

To a 2-dimensional line of a dot and a dot connecting him and the young man.

As a result, he was now in the same space and time as the young man, and there was no way to avoid that attack.

Boom!

With a roar, the former Heavenly Demon fell.

At the same time, the sound of something breaking was heard from all directions.

The fault boundary had been completely broken.

"Phew."

Yoo Jae-ha, seeing the fault boundary collapse one by one during the close-quarters fight with the former Heavenly Demon, was able to glimpse the basis that formed it to some extent.

If he had been told to spread a fault boundary from the beginning, he would have failed nine out of ten times.

That was the same now.

But in this space now, there were traces left after the fault boundary had been spread, and Yoo Jae-ha had just followed those traces.

"I almost got really fucked this time."

Moreover, because he had to subdue the former Heavenly Demon without harming his body, the difficulty was doubled. What if he brought the former Heavenly Demon with his arm cut off to his junior sister later and said, 'Sorry, hehe, I accidentally blew off his arm while fighting? Tehee!' How awkward would that be for both of them?

Now all he had to do was to safely move the unconscious former Heavenly Demon to his junior sister. At that moment, he felt a sharp premonition at his neck.

He tried to avoid it, but he couldn't.

This was not a 2-dimensional attack of a line connecting a dot and a dot, but a 1-dimensional attack of the dot itself.

The sword touched his neck.

Slice.

Do you know how to block an unblockable attack?

If I hadn't experienced the fight with the former Heavenly Demon, my neck would have been cut off by that attack just now.

A 1-dimensional space.

You draw a new dot at the opposite point.

You forcibly expand the 1-dimensional space to 2 dimensions and create a space.

Swish.

I kicked my feet into that place.

If I were to name the technique I had just performed, it would be the reverse fault boundary.

I urgently stroked my neck and gasped for breath, then I looked at the guy who had dared to ambush me.

A sheep mask covering his face.

"It's been a long time."

A memory that can never be forgotten.

"Wow, look at this fate. Don't tell me you're the one who did the thing in the Blood Cult?"

"That's right. I was originally planning to call the Blood Demon, but it turned out well."

I cleared my throat and asked.

"We have to resolve our past grudges, right?"

The beginning of all the twists.

"What if I had killed you then?"

"Don't be ridiculous. You ran away because you were afraid of being caught by the Heavenly Demon."

It's time to untangle the twisted and tangled thread.
