Chapter 218: Second Aerial Assault Strategy, or Gate Toto (3)
Five gates opened in the sky above the Sahara Grassland.
Therefore, the monsters pouring out also increased by more than five times.
They came out endlessly.
Now I understand why Jacques Deluane’s world was destroyed.
No wonder even highly advanced magical engineering couldn’t handle this.
Now it was time to prepare for a prolonged battle.
Tae-ju released his dragon ascension.
Use power efficiently, don’t waste it, only when absolutely necessary.
He couldn’t overuse Mancheonhwau either.
Attack the gates rather than the monsters.
It would be good to actively use Manribibeom too.
A treasure that flies around by itself, nothing beats it for hit-and-run tactics.
Tseuppit! Tseupirit!
Ilseom (One Flash) with the Divine Spirit Flying Sword.
Bipok (Flying Waterfall) with the Willow Leaf Flying Sword.
When dangerous moments come, he’d also scatter Jecheon Daeseong’s fur.
He was confident in this kind of prolonged battle.
Not only Toxic Spirit, but also the Yeouiju and Dragon Heart were masses of energy themselves.
He wasn’t without anxious feelings though.
Would it really end with just five?
What if the gates became 10? What if they became 20?
Then even he couldn’t guarantee anything.
In the end, he’d have no choice but to borrow someone’s power.
‘…I should also consider opening a dimensional gate.’
If just one of either the Swordsman or Jecheon Daeseong came over, those measly monsters would be finished immediately.
Meanwhile, the Toxic Spirit phone was flying through the sky, filming the situation on site in detail.
Everyone would be watching.
Thinking that the Immortal Realm, Hwangcheon-gye, and Cheon-gye were together, strength surged up.
Let them open as many as they want.
‘With just about five…’
But right at that moment!
Jiiiiiing!
‘Huh?’
What’s that sound?
He heard the sound of a door opening.
‘One, two, three, four, five.’
There were still five opened in the void.
It’s not a gate where monsters come out.
The sound was different from the start.
Didn’t it open?
Is this also an auditory hallucination?
“…Oh.”
There is one newly opened gate.
But on the ground, not in the sky.
‘I’ve seen this form somewhere before…’
It’s similar to the door that Yama King opens.
‘No, it’s identical.’
He must have opened the door.
A moment later,
Swoosh!
“Kim Tae-ju! I have come.”
That person is…
“Gonryun Seonin?”
“Uhahahaha! To think the day would come when we’d work together in harmony, don’t worry anymore.”
He wasn’t alone.
Sambong Seonin and Maehwa Seonin were there too.
“So this is Earth. Tseup, it smells good!”
“Hey, stop doing useless things and let’s destroy the gates.”
Why did they come over?
“We didn’t come because of Kim Tae-ju. Yama was firmly determined to give the Swordsman a good hit,”
“What?”
What does opening the door have to do with the Swordsman?
“The story is long, let’s do it later.”
Although they couldn’t match the Swordsman, these people were also immortals who ascended through swords, so naturally they had the Gigeogeom as basic equipment.
Tseupiririt!
Countless invisible sword energies embroidered the sky of the grassland.
Pupupuk! Pupupupupuk!
Monsters being annihilated by the invisible sword energies.
When the three immortals of the Murim worked together, they were not inferior to the Swordsman.
It wasn’t just them.
Swoosh! Swooswooswooosh!
“Greetings!”
“Wow! So this is Earth. Finally my first experience.”
“What time is it now? I need to match the strategy time.”
“Hehe, is that important? This isn’t the Immortal Realm, it’s Earth.”
“That’s right. The land of opportunity and promise. Something like toto…”
“Hehehe, let’s finish this quickly and go have fun.”
“Good!”
They kept coming.
It seemed like all the immortals in the Immortal Realm had come over.
Except for the Swordsman and Jecheon Daeseong.
The immortals began the gate strategy, each utilizing their specialties.
Including summoning wind and rain, fire and ice, earth and stone…
Immortal techniques similar to elemental magic from fantasy novels unfolded splendidly on the battlefield.
Even immortals who weren’t skilled in combat transmitted their immortal energy to other immortals through remote power transmission.
Like auxiliary batteries.
Immortal energy rushed toward Tae-ju as well.
Ahhh!
Power overflows.
Even if he used Mancheonhwau indefinitely, Toxic Spirit wouldn’t dry up.
Kwakwakwakwa!
Crash!
In the blink of an eye, one gate was annihilated.
Did only the immortals come?
Mi-ho Seon-ja also crossed through the door that Yama opened.
“Kyaak!”
As soon as she came out, Mi-ho Seon-ja transformed into a fox with a body as huge as the monsters, her nine tails spread out like a fan.
“Kaoooouuu!!!”
Sharp teeth and claws tore through the monsters’ bodies.
Crack! Snap!
Having heard Mi-ho Seon-ja’s roar,
Thump thump thump thump!
Ilisambaeyi came running from far away, kicking up clouds of dust.
I was going to send him back in case it got dangerous…
‘He fights well.’
Canine fox and feline Three-Headed White Tiger.
Perhaps because they were both mystical beasts, they worked together perfectly.
The monsters disappeared as soon as they emerged from the gates.
In the midst of this, Iron Seonin’s hammer spun around and flew to strike the edge of a gate.
Crash!
No matter how cracked it was, the gate shattered in one blow.
“See that? That’s my level.”
“Taking credit for delivering the finishing blow to something already broken.”
“Hehe! Should I show you once more?”
Another one broke.
Three remained.
The tide of battle had clearly turned.
So another one broke in succession.
Crash!
Two left.
“Let’s break them simultaneously.”
Concentrated attack on the gates.
The monsters had also drastically decreased and weren’t even a threat anymore.
But right at that moment!
Zzzzrrrr!
Screeech!
Zzzzrrrr!
Screeech!
Zzzzrrrr!
Screeech!
.
.
.
Gates opening tremendously without even going through a crack phase.
“…Fuck!”
There were a whopping 10 of them.
‘How long do we have to keep breaking these?’
What choice did we have?
We had no choice but to break them desperately until they completely disappeared.
That’s when it happened.
A person caught Tae-ju’s eye.
“…Ah!”
Why is that person here?
They shouldn’t be here.
* * *
Swordsman strongly protested to Yama.
“Match fixing!”
“I told you it was a mistake.”
“…Ha! Fine. Let’s say it was a mistake. But how long are you going to keep the doors open?”
“I tried to close them, but they won’t close properly.”
“How despicable. How can the head of magistrates who judge human good and evil do such petty things like match fixing.”
“What does this have to do with good and evil? And if it were match fixing, I would have crossed over. If you have eyes, look. Not a single one of our Saja, Chasa, or Pangwan crossed over.”
“…”
Indeed, Yama had instructed the Hwangcheon-gye administrators to remain inactive.
Never to cross over even if the doors opened,
Because he needed to create an escape route for later.
Swordsman felt like his head would explode from the surging anger.
Tae-ju’s live broadcast coming from the screen.
Gates were being broken one after another.
At this rate, the conquest would be completed within 30 minutes.
‘Should I just cause a ruckus?’
But the back of his neck felt hot.
Someone was glaring at him fiercely.
Probably Dok-seon.
As if asking why he wasn’t crossing over.
Let’s not make eye contact.
His entire fortune was at stake.
He needed to be thick-skinned.
It might be different if Kim Tae-ju was in danger.
But he was fighting so well like that.
“Ahem!”
However, Jecheon Daeseong seemed unable to withstand Dok-seon’s piercing gaze.
He quietly moved his steps to enter through the door.
Grab!
Swordsman grabbed Jecheon Daeseong’s shoulder and shook his head.
‘Don’t you have any pride? Are you giving up?’
‘At this rate, we’ll all die. We might not be able to do the delivery business.’
‘How much money did we bet? Let’s endure it.’
‘Ugh,’
‘We’re already ruined because Dok-seon has marked us. Let’s at least save the money. Let’s hold out to the end.’
Jecheon Daeseong with a dejected expression.
If only he hadn’t lent coins to Swordsman…
That’s when it happened.
Zzzzrrrr!
Screeech!
“Huh?”
“Oh!”
It was visible.
Through the screen.
The sight of more than 10 new gates opening.
Swordsman was moved.
Were the Heavenly Deities helping?
“How much time has passed?”
“Over there…”
Jecheon Daeseong pointed to the electronic board.
Looking over, it showed 2 hours 35 minutes 22 seconds.
Hope was visible.
Looking at the situation, the gate openings were not ordinary.
The 10 that opened this time might not be the last either.
‘The momentum is still on my side.’
But the back of his head felt not just stinging, but burning hot.
He could clearly feel Dok-seon’s rage.
‘Endure it, endure.’
Managing his expression too.
Blessed are those who endure.
‘Please, just 3 more hours…’
Meanwhile, Sangje clicked his tongue as he watched the nerve war between Yama and Dok-seon, Swordsman and Jecheon Daeseong.
“Jecheon Daeseong aside, how did that Swordsman fellow achieve immortality? Do you know, Seo Wang-mo?”
“I don’t know. It’s the greatest mystery of the Immortal Realm.”
“Then Taesang Nogoon, what do you think?”
“Well, it must have been the will of heaven and earth. Think about it. What would have happened if Swordsman hadn’t achieved immortality and remained in Gangho?”
“Ahhh.”
Come to think of it, that would have been terrible.
Anyway, Sangje decided not to worry about it and just enjoy himself.
Pop!
He opened a refreshing can of beer and drank it down.
“Ahh!”
Next, he put grilled squid legs generously coated with rich butter into his mouth.
“Hehe, this is true heaven.”
The heavenly realm had been as boring as the Immortal Realm.
Of course, the good celestial beings didn’t complain, but he always felt sorry.
What good is eating well and living well?
There needs to be fun.
But thanks to Kim Tae-ju, it finally became a heavenly realm worthy of heaven.
Sangje turned his eyes back to the large screen.
An action drama more vivid than movies.
The gates had increased to 10, but he wasn’t worried at all.
Even if 100 appeared.
If they can’t handle that much, they don’t deserve to be immortals.
Kim Tae-ju of course, the immortals showing off their diverse immortal arts and techniques, Mi-ho Seon-ja acting as a nine-tailed fox for the first time in a while, the three-headed tiger that was Earth’s spiritual creature.
And Haemak-i hopping around the grassland with flowers in her hair at the ominous scene where monsters were pouring out… Huh? Haemak-i?? Haemak-i???
Pfft!
Sangje spat out the beer he was drinking.
“Uh-uh-uh, why, why is Haemak-i th-there?”
How could this be so absurd.
Then Takdap Sinjang said.
“J-just a moment ago, when the immortals rushed over, it seems Haemak Seonnyeo also followed along out of curiosity.”
“Hehe,”
He didn’t have the heart to blame her for going over.
The important thing was that Haemak-i was left in that dangerous place.
Sangje shouted at the top of his lungs.
To the heavenly army, the Heavenly Soldiers and soldiers.
“What are you all doing! Hurry over and protect Haemak-i!”
“Yes!!!”
Rumble!
Thus, a large force of heavenly soldiers lined up and crossed through Yama’s Gate to Earth.
With this, even the heavenly army joined the battle.
Swordsman watched this scene in a daze.
The moment when his thread-like hope was severed.
The number of heavenly soldiers crossing over was roughly several thousand by his count.
A quick change of stance was needed.
Throwing away things like pride.
Swordsman quietly pulled out a betting slip from his chest.
And right in front of Dok-seon’s eyes, he ripped it apart.
“Ahem,”
After clearing his throat once,
“D-Dok-seon, don’t worry. I’ll go over right away and handle things.”
Danggumak replied with a cold expression.
“I don’t think you need to go over…”
“What! What are you saying! Who knows if the gates will become 20, no, 100, and monkey, you too stop thinking about being lazy and let’s go over.”
“In the time we’re talking like this, we could have already gone over…”
Whoosh!
Before he could finish speaking, Swordsman and Jecheon Daeseong disappeared into the Gate to Earth.
Danggumak chuckled.
He wanted to hate him, but Swordsman was someone he absolutely couldn’t hate.
* * *
The first to discover Haemak Seonnyeo was Tae-ju.
Although the immortals were driving back the gate monsters, this place was dangerous.
So he quickly approached and protected her while saying.
“Haemak Seonnyeo-nim.”
“Ah! Tae-ju-nim! There are flowers here too. They’re flowers I’ve never seen before.”
Haemak pointed to small wildflowers blooming in the Sahara Grassland.
“Yes, they’re pretty flowers.”
After nodding and answering.
Tae-ju took out all the remaining Jecheon Daeseong’s fur from the Infinite Space and scattered it.
Pop pop pop pop! Pop pop pop pop pop! Pop pop pop pop pop…
Countless large-scale clones multiplying rapidly.
The instruction Tae-ju gave was to protect Haemak Seonnyeo.
“Over there, there are more flowers. Shall we go look?”
“Yes!”
When he guided her to a place far from the scene.
Haemak jumped up and ran quickly, hop hop hop hop.
At the same time, golden monkey clones surrounded her and ran together.
As if Earth also welcomed Haemak’s visit, flowers that hadn’t yet bloomed spontaneously blossomed in the grassland field where she ran.
Tae-ju smiled warmly.
Right then!
Whoooosh!
An enormous number of people coming out of the gate in lines.
‘The heavenly soldiers too?’
The heavenly soldiers were each heavily armed with armor and weapons.
Takdap Sinjang spotted Tae-ju.
At the same time, he also saw Haemak-i running with the clone monkeys.
“Kim Tae-ju.”
“Yes, Sinjang-nim.”
“Please take care of Seonnyeo-nim. We’ll handle those things ourselves.”
“Understood. Don’t worry.”
Taktop summoned Cheonju Bima and flew up into the sky, charging toward the gate.
The heavenly soldiers joined in too.
And following behind came Swordsman and Jecheon Daeseong.
“…Tae, Kim Tae-ju.”
“Haha, ah, greetings.”
“Oh! You’ve arrived.”
“I’m a bit late. Don’t worry, we’ll do our part.”
“I’ll finish it in 10 minutes with my Ruyi Staff.”
Swordsman and Jecheon Daeseong also joined in.
10 gates?
They were destroyed in an instant.
As if making a final desperate struggle.
Wooong! Jjeojeojeojeojeok! Jjaeaeaeaeng!
More than 20 gates appeared again in the sky above Sahara Grassland.
Wajangchangchang! Wajangchang! Chaechaechaeng!
They shattered the moment they were created.
That was the last of them.
* * *
Heavenly Realm.
Only after Danggumak confirmed through the screen that the gates had completely disappeared from Sahara Grassland.
Click!
He pressed the stopwatch.
The final clear time was 3 hours, 3 minutes, and 3 seconds.
It ended safely and well.
He was satisfied with the results too.
Then who would be first place?
Who would be the lucky winner to claim over 100 times the payout?
When he tried to ask Ha Seon-go, she had already disappeared.
She must have gone to Earth, naturally.
He opened the tablet recording the betting list to check directly.
First place was?
Actually, it was obvious without looking.
‘It’s Haemak Seonnyeo.’
He knew it would be.
Who could possibly beat the heavenly fortune possessed by a celestial being?
But the betting amount was quite disappointing.
Only 1 coin in Heavenly Realm currency.
It was such a Haemak-like bet.
‘She earned about 100 coins.’
This won’t do.
No matter how low the odds, 9th and 10th place would earn more than Haemak-i.
Danggumak looked around to see if anyone was watching.
Then he added a few more zeros next to the number 1.
‘She should receive at least this much.’
Yeonla’s Gate was still open.
Shortly after, people came trudging back through the gate.
All were celestial soldiers returning after completing their missions.
Sangje asked Takdap Sinjang.
“Where’s Haemak-i?”
“The fairy said she would stay on Earth for a while.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, Kim Tae-ju told us not to worry, so only we returned.”
“I understand.”
All the celestial soldiers had returned too.
But the rest of the Immortals didn’t come back.
He had expected this.
Would a sparrow just pass by a mill?
Yama King asked Dok-seon.
“Dok-seon, shall we close the gate now?”
“Hmm,”
He wanted to go over and forcibly bring them all back.
…Well, they worked hard though.
“Yes, please close it.”
Let them go have fun.
It’ll be troublesome for Tae-ju though.
