“Uhhh.”
The face of Songhwa turned red.
No matter what kind of strategy Seol-Hwi used before, the chaotic qi which was disturbing his head disappeared.
He would slowly turn back to his original self.
“Ah…”
But then his face went stiff like he understood the situation. The skills of the Third Disciple who turned into the Soulless demon was beyond a level that would be easy to deal with.
It was not known if she was stronger than just the Supreme Demon level. The strange energy she was giving out was also cloudy and not one which existed in this world. If it was not for high level demonic arts, countering it would be difficult.
Swish swish swish
When he saw the Third Disciple rush at him, he had no choice but to think everyone was dying. But something had changed.
Kukung!
Uh?
This cold ice arts stopped the energy from touching Seol-Hwi. And this felt mysterious despite seeing it.
In order to resist such a mixed energy, at least experience on the level of Supreme Demon was needed.
Even with that, let alone meeting face to face, they had to escape to not die. But what about blocking it head on?
Kukukk!
It is coming again!
Songhwa, whose eyes looked pale, thought that there was no other answer when the Third Disciple moved again.
It was because the black energy around her was several times powerful than before, so he looked at Seol-Hwi in sadness
Shh
Uh.
The energy he was giving out was calm. The nature which opposed the darkness was like the gentleness of a moon and not the sharpness of the sun.
This goes against demonic energy!
Songhwa felt goosebumps rise on his body.
Just how in the world did such an energy exist here?
Clearly the Sect deals with demonic arts, so how?
It was a martial art one could never learn once they entered the Demonic Sect.
While Songhwa opened his mouth, the Third Disciple shot ahead with this black stream.
Piiing
The predicted explosion and clash did not happen.
When the black energy attacked him and the man, it was intense enough to shake the earth, but somehow it all vanished right after the collision.
“…!”
“…!”
“…!”
Unlike Songhwa, who watched Seol-Hwi from behind, most people witnessed the scene clearly.
Shhh
The dark energy emitted from the Third Disciple soon vanished as it touched the fingers of Seol-Hwi.
“This… is above the wall?”
The air flowing was soft from the collisions of the two energies and made everyone feel various different things. The energy of the evil disappearing even raised the morale of those who witnessed it. It was so intense that everyone saw it.
“Phew.”
Seol-Hwi’s fingertips brushed his face.
He had dealt with the Justice faction’s martial arts, but the Shaolin’s martial arts had a different flow than the other ones he had used before.
When one used the technique from the Shaolin Five Fist and then dispersed the demonic energy—Seol-Hwi saw a strange sight.
The pale face of the monks, even though their whole bodies were soaked in cold and pain, he saw countless monks concentrating on the stone wall in front of them.
What can this be? How?
It somewhat resembled training. It was so unrealistic that he doubted his own eyes, but he knew what this was.
It was the sight of those at Shaolin training.
It was their lifelong training to shake off the negative thoughts of the others and save their own monks.
The appearance was insignificant and sad, as if they were being abused, and it was difficult for Seol-Hwi to understand the various emotions in the hearts of the Shaolin monks who trained face to face
“Phew, phew…”
Pat—
“…!”
On the other hand, the Third Disciple reflexively jumped out when the offense was disrupted, closing the distance with Seol-Hwi.
For a while, things continued to happen chaotically, and that was due to the potential threat in front of her, the one who continued to disrupt things.
“Ha!”
With this sharp energy, she ran to Seol-Hwi, due to her instincts.
She had a premonition of defeat, one where if she continued to simply watch, she would continue to get caught in it. She intended to destroy the place with her own power.
Sahsasah!
Seol-Hwi saw the Third Disciple move.
At first he was confused like Yupae but soon calmed down.
-Vain, vain, everything is vain, in the end, everything in the world comes from thought and disappears in thought…
It was as if he could hear the chant of this old monk who had dedicated his life to indifference. And with that—
Kik!
The confusion building up in his mind had disappeared. The faltering illusion of the Third Disciple broke down, and it was clearly revealed as he stretched out his body and rushed toward her.
Chiing!
The energy of the darkness was scattered around like ash, and it spread like poison.
Along with that, the energy which flowed in the body of Seol-Hwi was protecting the surroundings.
Chiing
The energy of the demonic arts and the exorcism arts repeatedly collided with each other and dispersed.
Kakakakang!
“How! How!”
The face of the Third Disciple had turned red. The dark flow that even defeated Yupae did not work on the opponent. The extreme skills were no match for any man.
Seol-Hwi said,
“It is just one thing.”
“…?”
“You have changed. That one energy obtained from borrowing the soul.”
Seol-Hwi raised his lips into a smile, at the woman who was red faced.
“We need to resist martial arts here, so your existence is no longer needed. Moreover, you have an ego, and that will not listen to anyone. In the end, you have no choice but to be eliminated.”
“Eiik.”
The Third Disciple paused for a moment and looked around.
The Soulless Demon, who had been running around, following him as if they had lost their reasoning, stopped as if they were dead because of the odd energy which was moving around.
“Haa, haaa.”
It made no sense.
Somehow, they had met, and he never even thought that she gained a power which others could resist.
For now… I need to buy some time…!
Anger flared up, but the Third Disciple decided to get out and then think about what to do.
She sighed and looked around.
“Kuaaah. Uhuhuh.”
Fortunately, the Soulless Demons responded to her hand gesture. It was because of their instinct to follow the strong of their kind.
“Phew.”
“…?”
When she turned around, there was Yupae standing behind.
“Get lost. You…”
She was wide eyed. Was he not the guy who could not withstand her a while back and was defeated from her onslaught?
“What if I wont move…?”
“What a joke.”
Wheeik
Black flame shone from his anger.
Wheik!
However, Yupae stood up as if he was waiting for this. The flame was purple, and it was an energy which Seol-Hwi had noticed before.
Annihilation Flame Arts!
The supreme version of the Flame Demonic Arts.
As shown in one of the Four Peak Demonic Martial Arts, the end of things was referred to as annihilation. And it was the form of flames which transcended the natural world and was said to be brought in from another world.
It was this different type of power from the other world rather than a simple energy attack.
How?
Seol-Hwi frowned.
When Yupae stood in front of the woman, he clicked his tongue. It was because he clearly witnessed that he was not able to resist the power and speed of hers.
So it was quite shocking when yYupae was standing in front of her and began to use flame arts to attack her.
Kukukuku. Kukukukuku.
“…!”
This was different from when Seol-Hwi confronted them. The two energies from both sides collided with a huge explosion happening. The wall collapsed, and the ground cracked.
“H-how…?”
Among them, the Third Disciple stood puzzled.
When she defeated Yupae a little while back, she thought she won it all. She felt this strength which was unstoppable.
But now she was instead pushed back in this clash.
It was like the upper hand she had earlier was but an illusion.
“Ah… ah, it was a mistake. For a moment I thought you were just another human.”
Behind Yupae, who stood proudly, was another person walking out like he had been waiting for this moment.
“Even you…”
“Even you? Did samae think that she was the best in the world?”
It was the Second Disciple who smiled.
Snap
Snapping his fingers as he looked around.
“It is normal. When the energies which are different in nature collide, an explosion happens depending on the amount of it. However, the higher the martial arts level, the more often technique trumps pure strength.”
When one first hits a book, it would make a loud noise. But if you poke it with something, the book will tear with little sound.
When they clashed first, Yupae countered with enhanced energy.
This was a mistake.
The enhanced energy can certainly take anything under normal situations, but the attack of this Soulless Demon which was now supreme demon, was a special case.
“But I am not someone to look down on. Being at the level of the third troop leader in the sect, it isn’t just about your abilities, but of how desperate my abilities are. I also learned martial arts which are at the peak of flame arts.”
Tssss
Flames bloomed again this time.
Yupae gave out the Annihilation Flame so that he could get the result he wanted. It was as if he was fighting back at the defeat which arose a while back due to his carelessness.
The Third Disciple broke into cold sweat at this.
Seol-Hwi was pushed back by this, and Yupae who was thought be strong was pushed back by the purple flames.
Although he gained a temporary upper hand due to the nature of his martial arts, after being discovered, he was being pushed into a corner.
“Ha. You had your life saved thanks to your subordinate, and now you are acting all proud.”
“…Thanks to my subordinate?”
Demon Lord’s eyes twitched. The Third Disciple saw that and provoked him.
“Am I wrong? For someone like you, who has no strength to be able to command one of the three best troops leaders. Honestly to me, it just seems like a pathetic sight.”
“Now… this, isn’t samae looking down on me? On the subject of being taken down by Yupae you are slowly diverting your attention to me. Should we clash again then if you think it is unfair?”
“What? You? Pfft.”
Pang
When the Third Disciple laughed, the Demon Lord nodded.
Yupae stepped aside with a smile which held no meaning.
Pang!
The Demon :ord swung his hand so loudly that it made a huge sound.
“Come on then. Let’s see.”
“…You will regret doing this, you idiot.”
The Third Disciple was grinning in joy at this.
What is she thinking?
On the other hand, Seol-Hwi, who was watching this happen, was puzzled.
The Demon Lord—
He was a person who never moved forward unless the situation was in his favor. And after the slight provoking of the Third Disciple, he immediately moved to fight.
Chaaak!
This time, the Third Disciple did not bother shooting energy shots from a distance. She rushed close to Demon Lord.
“It is over. You moron.”
The black energy in the shape of a cross hit the Demon Lord
Chak!
But the Demon Lord disappeared.
At the point of the final clash, he just stood beside her in an instant.
“You got caught, samae.”
“…?!”
“I always said that if you didn’t abandon this personality of yours, one day you would get seriously injured.”
Clench
And he grabbed her from the back.
“It ended up like this. Well, I will take the energy of samae, thank you now.”
Shhhh.
And this black energy rose from the hand of the Demon Lord.
“…!”
At that, the Third Disciple felt her body twitch as she struggled under him. She was definitely trying to resist it, but it looked like she was being completely suppressed.
“That is…?”
“Absorption Great Technique.”
“Absorption?”
Beside Seol-Hwi. who was startled, Songhwa groaned and said so.
“The energy of the Third Disciple who turned into Supreme Demon Soulless…. He wants to steal it and make it his own… how… cunning…”
“…!”
It was only then did Seol-Hwi manage to see the truth of this situation.
The situation created by Demon Lord was so shocking that he doubted just how far the guy planned ahead for it.
