The man in the bamboo hat was amazed at the powerful energy he felt from the north.
There was no human who could deal with that thing.
Even if it was one of the best in Wulin, they would still fail.
âHow are they still fighting?â
He thought that the one facing that thing would be dead.
Its power grows stronger as time goes by, but it hasnât yet reached the apex of its power.
He knew it better than anyone as he competed with it once every ten years.
â⊠is there a person who can deal with it?â
Such a person would be close to the âapexâ like himself.
Anxiety crept over the man.
He was worried that âthat personâ might reappear with time.
Phat!
Finally, he reached the area where the battle was taking place.
If it was âthatâ then it was definite that the people would be killed on the spot.
Woong!
The man in the bamboo hat moved high in the air.
He stopped in the air and focused his eyes on the place where two people were fighting.
âHuh?â
However, it wasnât âthat personâ who was competing.
âIf it isnât him, how is he being cornered? Ah!â
In the eyes of the man in the bamboo hat, he saw black energy rise from the sword of the man competing with that thing.
The vicious energy wasnât internal energy.
âHe absorbed a spirit beast.â
Now he understood.
Otherwise, he wouldnât have been able to compete with it.
The purpose of the one with the black energyâs visit was clear.
âHeâs aiming for the spirit beast.â
He couldnât let him enter.
Other than the man with long hair, the other people didnât seem that tough to handle.
That was what he thought,
âLorddd!!!â
He used Void Punch twice, but the energy didnât go down.
If the man was indeed hit, then his energy should have at least fluttered, but instead, it rose.
âWhat?â
Black energy rose in the dust.
The man in the bamboo hat waved his hand, trying to clear the dust and see his opponent.
One hand was outstretched, and a large invisible sword blocked the attack like a shield.
âHe blocked it both times?â
The man was in shock.
After twenty years, he found a man who stopped his attack twice.
And with an invisible sword too.
â⊠I see, a Divine Master.â
Since he blocked the punch, the man was indeed experienced.
âPhew.â
Chun Yeowunâs eyes narrowed.
Even when he was dealing with the one in black, all he had to do was use his energy, but this time he had to create an invisible sword to defend himself.
âYouâre the same as me.â
The man in front of him was a Divine Master too.
He also reached the end of the Divine Master Level.
It was his first time experiencing a warrior who could do such things.
âN-No mistake. He, he isâŠâ
After confirming that his grandson was safe, Chun Inji, who felt relieved, looked at the man in the bamboo hat with a firm expression and said.
âGod of the East, Ark Wui!â
He was a man who reigned as one of the five strongest warriors with just his fists.
There were rumors going around for a long time that he was the best in the world, but he never thought that the man would be so strong.
A thrilling master who made everyone feel inferior.
âDoes such a person exist?â
Marakim and Dan Jucheon, who were nearby, had the same reaction.
The two looked at the man in the bamboo hat with trembling eyes.
In the mountain, the only person who could deal with their Lord head-on was that person.
âTwo gods have gathered at one place.â
The meeting of two of the five strongest warriors who had the word god in their titles.
The bamboo hat man, who judged that Chun Yeowun wasnât an easy opponent, increased his energy.
Goo!
âKuak!â
âWh-what energy?â
At his energy, the lower leveled warriors of the cult staggered as the air became heavy for them.
They felt as if their bodies were trapped.
Even Ko Wanghur and the other Superior Masters felt the same way.
âTh-that monster.â
He was someone who could crush the crowd with just his energy.
It was no exaggeration to say that he blocked the 5000 troops of the Yulin all alone.
If he had such strength, not just blocking, he could annihilate them too.
Everyone looked at those two with tensed faces.
Chun Yeowun opened his mouth.
âThe fact that you threw a fist at me twice means that you have no intention of conversing, right?â
If there was no hostility, he would have tried to talk first.
However, he attacked twice without even knowing if the man was an opponent or not.
But, contrary to their expectations, the man opened his mouth to answer.
Drrr!
The man underneath his hand trembled.
Even before being attacked by him, the man in black was undergoing mutation, and now he returned to his original state.
As the man in the bamboo hat took three steps back, the man in black stood up.
âUgh! Bastard! How dare you crush me!â
He grumbled with a voice full of displeasure as he looked at the man in the bamboo hat, making the latter point his finger at the mountain.
âYouâre the one who tried to break the oath first. Go back now!â
At that, he shouted.
âIâll do what I⊠cough!â
A handful of blood gushed out of the man in blackâs mouth.
He thought that it was an internal injury caused by the man in the bamboo hat crushing him, but it wasnât that.
The man made a face as if he couldnât understand something. He thought that his body was restored to its original state.
âArenât the wounds healed?â
The 23 slashes he sustained had completely regenerated.
However, the parts where he was hit were still throbbing.
Looking at Chun Yeowun, he grunted.
Step!
âI knew it, you bastard! You absorbed the core of a fallen spirit beast!â
âFallen spirit beast?â
Chun Yeowun frowned at the unfamiliar words.
All he did was use the Sky Demon Force of all four qiâs he had.
âWhat do you mean by fallen?â
âHow dare you ask me that!â
At Chun Yeowunâs question, the man took a step towards him with a malicious grin, but the man in the bamboo hat stopped him by grabbing his shoulder.
âStop.â
â⊠if you donât take your hand off my shoulder, Iâll cut off your fingers and throw them away.â
It was strange.
The man had the ability to do what he said.
However, despite the threat, the man didnât let go.
âIf you donât drive out that energy, you wonât be able to fulfill the oath. Does that not matter to you?â
Startle!
The manâs eyebrows rose at the word oath.
It was as if the word oath was a kind of restriction.
Pak!
The man shook off the hand on his shoulder roughly and mumbled while calming his anger.
âDamn you bastard. Instead, I will definitely kill you.â
After those words, he glanced at Chun Yeowun and moved to Changbai Mountain in anger.
But there was no way Chun Yeowun would leave him alone.
Chun Yeowunâs question wasnât answered, and his identity was unknown.
When Chun Yeowun tried to move, the man in the bamboo hat stopped him.
Bang!
At that, Chun Yeowun took a step ahead.
At that moment, as if ripples could exist on the ground, yin soared around, creating frost on the ground.
Jrrk!
A huge rock rose from the ground and blocked the man who was heading towards the mountain.
The eyes of the man who barely managed to hold back his anger turned red.
âYou arrogant jerk! Did you block me with ice?â
Ice could be broken right away.
He pulled out his sword and attacked it at once.
Clang!
âWhat is this?â
The ice which should have broken didnât break. Rather the long sword bounced off of it.
The man couldnât even understand what was happening.
Bang!
He hit the ice with his fists.
âWhatâs wrong with the ice?â
The ice swords which were created before werenât that strong.
However, this ice rock was very hard, as if it was stone.
Not natural.
Unlike the ice swords, this ice rock was made up of the essence of the Ice Cold of Heaven technique, and it had the strength to capture even a spirit beast in it.
âThat bastard! He absorbed a core, but is he really a human? If I donât transform my body, I wonât be able to wake up.â
Trickle!
In addition, the last attack of Chun Yeowun was interfering with his movements.
He could have moved away from the ice, but he wanted to destroy it and then move. It was then, he felt energy from behind.
âHuh?â
When he turned around, Chun Yeowun had his sword stretched out.
âI never said Iâll let you go.â
Swosh!
The large invisible sword that stood like a shield in front of Chun Yeowun a moment back now aimed at him. But,
Woong!
The man in the bamboo hat blocked the sword as he moved his hand and rotated it before sending it down.
âHe stopped the invisible sword?â
And that wasnât the end.
Kwang!
When the man pushed the sword to the ground, the ground trembled.
In a short time, he realized that only if the yin was constantly being released would the rigidity of the stone be maintained.
âHurry.â
âTch!â
The man in black frowned at the words of the man in the bamboo hat and stepped on the ice, and jumped away.
Phat!
âWho said you could?â
When Chun Yeowun raised his hand, numerous ice swords appeared in the air.
And as he tried to release them, the man in the bamboo hat moved, extending his fist towards Chun Yeowun.
Pang!
The sound of air being ripped could be clearly heard.
âThis?â
It looked like a light punch, but it wasnât.
The fist stretched out a lot, and its effect and power didnât reduce.
It was as if a raging volcano exploded.
âAs we reach the end of the Divine Master Level, we focus on the capabilities of the effectiveness of one thing rather than useless techniques. You canât stop me with those clumsy moves.â
Once he was done, no one would be able to stand in front of him properly.
Unlike the previous punch, this one was difficult to respond to.
If the young man was really a Divine Master, then the difference between him and the young man should be felt.
âSmiling?â
Chun Yeowun, who should have been shocked, was smiling.
And something unique happened.
A ferocious black invisible sword was born in Chun Yeowunâs hand, and all 24 forms of the Sword Art of the Demon God aimed at one point.
â!?â
The man in the bamboo hat realized it.
The unification that took him several decades was already being unfolded by the young man in front of him.
In an instant, the sword in his hand, which unfolded all aimed for one point.
Kwang!
As if a bomb had exploded, the strength of the two rattled the place around them.
The aftermath of it was the members of the Demonic Cult being pushed away.
Swoosh!
âWh-what kind of aftermath?â
âEuk!â
Some bounced off.
The capabilities of the combatants were overwhelming the other warriors.
When the dust fell, a large pit with a five foot radius formed where the two attacks collided.
âL-Lord?â
The cultists checked to see if their Lord was okay.
As the dust moved, the figure standing in the center was Chun Yeowun.
A haze-like smoke rose from Chun Yeowunâs upper body as if it was driving away the opponentâs energy.
He moved three steps back, and there seemed to be several clashes.
âDid our Lord hit him? Ah!â
They found the man ten steps away.
His face was revealed under the torn bamboo hat. He was a middle-aged man with pure white hair and a strong face.
A haze rose from the middle-aged manâs chest too.
Looking at the blood running down his lip, he must have suffered internal injuries.
Shh!
The man wiped off the blood with his sleeve.
He was unable to move for an instant.
âI tried to suppress it immediately because the technique seemed poor, but I got pushed back by the counterattack.â
This was what happened in the short time of the exchange.
As Chun Yeowunâs sword came for him, he tried to kick Chun Yeowunâs right shoulder.
Chun Yeowun, who avoided it, hit the man in his upper body.
Pupuk!
âNo?â
He thought that Chun Yeowun would be thrown away when his punch reached him, but his fist began to turn cold.
In his moment of hesitation, Chun Yeowunâs sword pierced his chest.
As a result, he got pushed back ten steps.
âHis energy is impossible to understand. Heâs hard to push.â
He figured it out in the short exchange of blows.
Srrrr!
Chun Yeowun, who had driven out the energy of the middle-aged man which was digging into his body, looked at him.
âHe is able to unify all his energy and concentrate on executing it perfectly?â
It was admirable.
Chun Yeowun understood that.
The Sword Art of the Demon God was based on the Sword Force of the Sky Demon.
It was given the right to move freely.
âEvery single blow aims for death.â
This man in front of Chun Yeowun was the toughest opponent he ever met.
It was no exaggeration to call him the strongest.
To become that strong without a core, he is a great person, even if he is an enemy for now.
Chun Yeowunâs energy, which was increased as he obtained four cores, exceeded the manâs.
However, the middle-aged man in front of him, who hadnât taken a single core and reached this level, was commendable.
âHow long did he practice to achieve that level?â
Maybe he was a person with talent.
To some extent, they managed to understand each other.
The man relaxed and walked.
âIt has been a long time. Since I fought properly.â
He clenched his fists and spoke, taking out his energy properly.
âIt would be unfair for me to not use my full strength against a warrior like you. Itâs the first time in several decades that Iâve had to use the Void Punch.â
Chun Yeowun too acknowledged his opponent.
And the man accepted him, not as an uninvited guest to the mountain, but as a true opponent.
Gooo!
Energy rose in both fists of the man, who warned.
âFrom now on, lose a little concentration, and youâll die.â
It has been a long time since he fought properly, so he wanted to use all his skills.
That was what his warning meant.
At that, Chun Yeowun responded.
âThose words. Right back at you.â
As soon as that was done, the space around Chun Yeowun shook, and his energy began to condense.
Three invisible swords were created in an instant.
All three had different attributes.
Crackle! Jjjjk! Flare!
They were the black thunder qi sword, the black ice qi sword, and the black flame qi sword.
Completely different from ordinary sword qi.
As Chun Yeowun slightly moved his hand, the three swords aimed for the opponent.
âA little carelessness, and youâll die. God of the East.â
The warning held no ounce of a lie.
â⊠hiding the power, we both were doing the same.â
Tension stood in the eyes of God of the East, who saw three attributed swords raging with energy.
