Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation

Chapter 208: Different Future, Different Result (4)

One month, then another.

Time passed quickly like an arrow being released.

The subordinates were adapting well. Even on the remote island, they managed to find something to do.

Thanks to that, Seol-Hwi was able to focus on the training.

Once he reached the Supreme Demon level, all things in the world felt new.

The upper and lower body and, by practicing the energy derived from dantian, his martial arts were stronger, and his life felt vibrant.

Thanks to this, the time spent every day on it increased.

External changes had to be adapted to slowly, and it required time for the body to adapt to changes.

Shhh

Seol-Hwi raised a hand and tried to pull the energy flowing through the body.

Shhh

Clumps of mud floated up from the paddy field.

Void Space—

The ability to think and make things move.

In the field of spells or Taoism, it was like a supernatural power similar to telekinesis, and after reaching Supreme Demon, he could use this without needing to concentrate much.

Tingle

However, he was not that used to it yet, so he immediately felt like needles were stabbing him in the head.

“Phew.”

Seol-Hwi, who lost strength again, began to settle calm and the tingling sensation vanished with the soil setting down.

“This is the Supreme Demon level…”

Qi—

It was an expression which usually gathered energy and was pushed outside. Even if one reached a level to use it, they are always in the first rate warrior level.

If a common sect was there and someone checked, they could find one or two people there.

However, even if they knew how to do it, they have to be skilled as well, and if they reached the level of a warrior or were able to use a higher level ability, then they would have to be above Super Master Level.

For example, being able to use a large number of sword energies or energy bullets with condensed energy. This was not something which someone normally saw. In particular, it was difficult to find super sword energy and enhanced energy beyond the level of using a sword technique freely.

And due to that, they say it could only be done by those who are at least at the Peak Demon stage.

Seol-Hwi had gone past it. He learned to use the sword energy and now could control it too.

Interestingly, Seol-Hwi’s problem starts from here.

“I don’t know which direction I should focus on.”

After stepping into the supreme stage, he felt as if he was facing a sea he had never seen before. Although he had huge growth, he could not find a path or a higher road for him to take.

They said Supreme Demon is divided into three stages.

According to the contents of the book he heard, the three of them are, Entry, Master, and Supreme.

At first he did not know what it meant, but as time passed, he got the rough idea.

Wang Mo-ryeok, the bald head warrior who was a recluse, his level was lacking compared to the other Supreme Demon level warriors he met. Perhaps this was just the start of it.

Next, Seol-Hwi remembered Goo Jong-myung.

If I try to assess his level, he must have been around the Master stage.

It was easy to guess with the way he moved, thought, reacted, and used the sword.

Compared to Wang Mo-ryeok he was several times faster and stronger.

If he thought about the subordinates of the Second Disciple—

They were all highly proficient.

He was not sure which level they were in. This was because Seol-Hwi had not entered into the Supreme Demon for a long time, and he had never experienced Yupae or the First Disciple’s skills in person.

He could feel nothing from them.

Come to think of it, I heard that a Supreme Warrior had died… was it Yupae?

He remembered the subordinates of the Second Disciples who the Earth Demon had killed.

With no clear information, it was difficult to know. He would have to head to the sect to find out what happened, if he was alive or dead.

Step

Seol-Hwi walked on the mountain path to cool off his head. It was not some high mountain but one with few slopes, so climbing it was not difficult.

In the meantime, Seol-Hwi’s steps halted at one point.

Wheik! Wheik!

He saw the figure of a woman practicing.

This must have been Seo Ryeong’s training ground.

They seldomly ran into each other during training, but now he saw her, and it seemed like she trained alone.

She swung the sword with concentration, but it looked like she was lost. It was the first time Seol-Hwi saw this side of her, but rather, he too was immersed in his thoughts.

Of course…

It was already a couple months ago.

It was time to talk about dreams, and then, he said he was looking at the same place with her.

A little silence passed.

Seol-Hwi saw it as a signal and naturally put his lips to hers.

Did it succeed?

Yes. It was a huge success until that point. However, he got a bit more greedy after that.

He put his right hand on her waist and Seo Ryeong ran away in fright.

I barely talked to her after that.

From then, she would avoid him at all costs. If he did not avoid her, then she would.

It was not hate from the looks of it… but it was not like she liked it either.

However, it was embarrassing to ask anyone about this, so he did not bring it up.

If only we were in the sect… I could have known what she was thinking.

Love +3

The one floating above her head which activated last time. If it was there, maybe it would have changed a lot.

But being out of the system range made it hard.

“Captain!”

Seol-Hwi turned his head at the call, and it was from Yong Jin who was running to him.

“What is it?”

“Please come to the residence quickly.”

“Why?”

“Because there are interesting things to see, hurry please.”

“So what is it?”

“You will know once you come… hurry… Uh? Seo Ryeong.”

At the sound of Yong Jin talking, even she came over. Thanks to that, Seol-Hwi looked away from her for no reason, well because she found out he was looking at her.

“Good. Come down, both of you, quick!”

Yong Jin shouted as he went down. Seol-Hwi and Seo Ryeong, who were looking awkward, began to follow him down.

“Master, you here?”

“Captain! Here!”

The subordinates were all present at the residence, and it was not common for all of them to gather early in the evening.

“Yes. What? I heard there was something to see.”

At Seol-Hwi’s words, Jeok Song smiled and pointed at two men talking while changing clothes on the other side a little away.

“Do we have… to go this far?”

One was Yorim, who was complaining.

Since early morning, he had been to several clothing stores.

On the other hand, his expression when being handed clothes was cold.

“Have you never heard that clothes are like wings? You have to look like a person with money. The silk clothing and head accessories make you look confident. You should also choose your jacket and pants which fit well. You cannot wear cheap shoes like ever. You get to catch a big fish by gathering the right things.”

“But if I wear this… will women like this?”

“Of course. First of all, your face is smacked in… No, just lacking a bit of sleep, so that will be helped when you get these. Also wear a belt… and nice shoes… now, let’s see the face.”

Clothes were scattered all around, and he was constantly changing it.

When Seol-Hwi looked away with a bit of shock on his face, Yong Jin chuckled.

“I think he will be going out for a meeting tomorrow. Maybe that is why he has been at it since before.”

“What? who?”

“I don’t know but it was arranged by Imugi, and it seems like one of his acquaintances.”

As Seol-Hwi continued to need some more information, Jeok Song calmly said,

“It is simple. After being dumped by the woman who he liked for long, he has nothing to hold in his empty heart, so he soothes his loneliness with another woman. Well.”

“…”

“…”

In an instant, the atmosphere went cold.

Seo Ryeong and Seol-Hwi avoided each other without looking at them.

Perhaps not knowing the situation, Yorim continued to change clothes.

“Oh, this!”

And then his face brightened. There were clothes which were bright.

In addition, the upper jacket worn over the robe with sleeveless hands was quite nice.

“It looks… fairly good?”

“Of course it is. This was mainly preferred by scholars, but these days even the wealthy families’ children wear them. It is especially popular for…”

Imugi seemed satisfied and grinned.

“But, have you decided on what job you will take?”

“Well… how about a carpenter?”

“Huh. You didn’t even put up a shop, what kind of carpenter are you… right, rental side. The private loan givers, let us go for that.”

“But I don’t have that much money…”

“Excuse me, Master is rich, right?”

And the two looked at Seol-Hwi, who smiled awkwardly.

“Yes, lender is a good role.”

At those words, the two smiled again.

“Right, that is it then. Wait for tomorrow now.”

Imugi said it and Yorm walked out in front of everyone.

“Wow! Perfect!”

Clap! Clap!

They clapped, liking it, but that was all.

Jeok Song quickly went out and Seo Ryeong did as well.

“Let’s go.”

“Right.”

In turn, Seol-Hwi and Yong Jin too moved out.

Noon the next day—

Chak!

Waves were raging on the port.

The winds which had been rough since dawn were now making it tough for a boat to move.

Chung Gyung, the third class disciple of Haenam Sect, who was in charge of the patrolling the port pulled back his hair and said,

“Uh? Will trade ships come in this weather?”

It was an odd thing. Normally there was a rule to not sail ships in such weather, but for some reason, one was coming.

“It isn’t bad. If there is one good sailor then such winds can be crossed.”

Sahyung, Chung Myung next to him, said that. The ship stopped and people began to get down

“Uh… Uh?”

Chung Gyung thought it was strange. They didn’t seem to be holding anything inside, and people on the ship did not seem normal.

For example, their clothes.

They got off the ship wearing black clothes and seemed trained in martial arts.

“Chung Myung, call the other hyungs.”

“Yep!”

Chung Myung too sensed it and ordered him right then, but before the younger one could take a few steps.

“Kuak!”

A person from the ship cut his throat in the blink of an eye.

“W-who! You people!”

At the sudden appearance of these unknown people, Chung Myung shouted. However, they did not care.

Clack

Chung Myun drew the sword and quickly used the technique of Haenam, but the opponent avoided it.

“Kuak!”

Puak!

He was beheaded at once.

“What is the matter?”

“W-what is this?”

It was then when the scream was heard that people began to appear.

“Handle that.”

Shhhh!

A masked man on the ship gave the order and dozens of them jumped out and cut down all the people around. The area around was stained with blood.

Tuk

The man who gave the order got off slowly. He had a mask and was in black. It was a considerable body which couldn’t be controlled.

Two masked men stood next to him and an old man was behind.

“Is this the place?”

When the masked man who seemed like the leader looked away, the one next to him took off the hood and said,

“Yes. My baby said so.”

There was a woman and a baby.

Meow.

It was the cat in her arms. The masked man who seemed to be the leader turned to the old man and asked,

“You can tell from the face?”

“Yes, elder.”

The old man was Geum Man-jung.

Somehow, he too arrived here.

Shhh

Another soldier next to the woman lowered their mask.

It was Hyang Gae.

The tenth ranked in the sect, opened his mouth.

“Young leader. Do we really step into such a shabby place?”

At that, the person who had given the order took off the mask.

He was the First Disciple.

He had appeared.

“This is the only clue to the Four Peak Demonic Arts. Of course I have to come and check it.”

He nodded and then Si Ah-young, the head of Jade Girl House, put down the cat.

“Would you like to look for it?”

Meow

The cat ran somewhere as if it had been waiting all the while, and its speed was shocking too.

Tatak

Seeing that, the subordinates followed.

“A member under the Earth Demon or a descendant…”

The First Disciple mumbled, stepping ahead.

The Fourth Disciple, the Earth Demon—

The First Disciple wanted to see with his own eyes who would succeed that guy.

He was curious.
