Legend of the Evil Martial God

Chapter 70

 

 

 

Jeok Wigang spoke to the bewildered Seungwisa.

 

“Ah, it’s fine. It’s magic arts.”

“Ma, magic arts?”

“Yes. I know a bit of magic arts.”

 

Thud-.

 

As he set down the box he had taken out on the ground, the black space disappeared.

The Seungwisa’s gazes focused on the box.

 

Creak-.

 

When the box opened, it was filled with weapons inside.

 

“Now, each of you take a weapon that suits you. This is a gift from the Castle Lord.”

“The Spirit Pills alone are more than enough!”

“That’s right! We can’t accept more because we’d feel too guilty.”

 

He said a word to the Seungwisa who were firmly declining.

 

“It’s an order.”

 

At the word “order,” the Seungwisa hurriedly searched for and took out weapons that suited them from the box.

 

“Huh? Th, this is too good? I, I must have taken the wrong one.”

 

When the Seungwisa who had taken out a sword was startled and tried to put it back, Jeok Wigang stopped him.

 

“Do you like that sword?”

“What swordsman wouldn’t like such a fine sword.”

“Is that so? Now you’re the owner of that sword.”

“What? Me, me?”

 

Jeok Wigang nodded his head.

The other Seungwisa also chose weapons that suited them, and they were all amazed.

 

“It looks like you’ve all chosen.”

“Are, are we really allowed to take such fine weapons?”

“Yes. Since it’s a gift from the Castle Lord, use them well.”

“Sob! We are losers who have done nothing for the Castle Lord.”

“That’s right! We cannot accept such things.”

 

At the Seungwisa’s words, Jeok Wigang erased his smile and spoke with a serious expression.

 

“The word ‘loser’ is not something to be used carelessly. If you truly care for the Castle Lord, you should take those weapons and become stronger. Isn’t that right?”

“You’re right!”

“We will become stronger!”

“I’ll give you one week. If I’m not satisfied after one week, you’d better be prepared.”

“Yes!”

 

 

 

After ordering the Seungwisa to train, Jeok Wigang moved back to the Seven Star Ascension Tower.

He dismantled all the mechanism formation styles and formations, then reset the formations and mechanism formation styles according to the difficulty level of each floor.

It was never easy, but not so difficult that it couldn’t be overcome.

He began installing formations with great care and consideration to make them stronger by overcoming this place.

 

“There really won’t be another filial grandson like me.”

 

He resolved to boast about everything he could to Grandfather later.

He reset the formations up to this floor and reached the final floor.

He didn’t touch this place.

 

“Let me see Grandfather’s skills.”

 

When he activated the formation, Grandfather’s phantom appeared.

Grandfather appeared with his hands behind his back like the first time.

Strangely, Grandfather didn’t attack and just stood still.

 

“What? Does it only react to attacks?”

 

Come to think of it, when he first met Taecheon, he didn’t attack either and only defended in that posture.

Let’s see how much of Grandfather was reflected?

Jeok Wigang excitedly rushed forward and threw a punch.

 

Whoosh-.

 

Grandfather flew away and disappeared in one hit.

He disappeared too easily.

Wondering what this was about, he watched quietly and soon gritted his teeth tightly.

 

“This damn bastard set our Grandfather up as a complete scarecrow!”

 

All it did was just stand there quietly.

Anyone who climbed up to this place could easily claim first place.

Jeok Wigang was angry at the fact that Grandfather was treated this way.

 

“Military Advisor… There better be a clear reason for what you did to Heavenly Martial City. If not, you’re dead…”

 

He would definitely ask the Military Advisor.

The reason for making the Seven Star Ascension Tower like this.

Among the time spent here, he put the most effort into creating Grandfather’s phantom.

 

“Phew! All done.”

 

Having fought with Grandfather many times, I know his abilities better than anyone.

But if I reflected Grandfather’s true power as it is, no one except me would be able to pass through this place.

I need to make it so they can pass while moderately showing Grandfather’s greatness.

 

“Now, shall I test if it’s working properly?”

 

I activated the formation.

Then Grandfather appeared standing with his hands clasped behind his back.

Grinning, I rushed toward Grandfather and threw a punch.

 

Clang-.

Rumble rumble rumble-.

 

Unlike before, seeing Grandfather perfectly defending finally made me smile.

It’s unfortunate that he doesn’t show any signs of panic, but it doesn’t matter since there won’t be anyone among those who climb here who could make Grandfather panic anyway.

Even after attacking several more times, he blocked well.

I set it so that after defending three times, Grandfather would attack once.

The power would get stronger as it went on.

 

Whoooosh-.

 

Since I couldn’t replicate Grandfather’s martial arts, I made it attack in a similar way.

 

Boom boom boom-.

 

The power is quite decent too.

If they can withstand this attack from Grandfather, they’re qualified enough to be successor candidates for Cheonmu Castle.

Since they could die if they make a mistake, I even added healing incantations to the formation so they wouldn’t die.

This is perfect.

Standing on the top floor and opening the door, a cool breeze came in.

 

Whoooosh-.

 

In the distance, I could see the palace halls of Cheonmu Castle.

Now this Seven Star Ascension Tower will become the future of Cheonmu Castle.

Jeok Wigang grinned as he looked down below.

Jeok Wigang jumped straight down from the Seven Star Ascension Tower and landed on the ground.

 

Thud-!

 

The moment he landed, powerful energy waves spread in all directions, destroying the Cloud Sea Formation.

The fog disappeared and sunlight began to shine through.

Jeok Wigang crossed his hands, muttering an incantation while placing his hands on the ground.

 

“Wash Away Old Traces, Brilliant Renewal”

 

Whoooosh-.

 

Wind swirling around Jeok Wigang as the center.

As the wind swept over the moss-covered ground, it transformed like new.

The wind grew larger and larger, completely enveloping the area around the Seven Star Ascension Tower.

 

Whoosh-.

 

After a moment.

The wind calmed down and the Seven Star Ascension Tower, completely transformed like new, revealed itself.

 

“Very good.”

 

Looking satisfied, Jeok Wigang smiled brightly.

Exactly one week. That’s how long it took to reorganize the Seven Star Ascension Tower.

 

“Now, since the promised week has passed, shall I go verify how well you’ve been training?”

 

 

 

Jeok Wigang walked toward the direction where people’s shouts could be heard loudly.

His expression wasn’t very good.

Because Jeok Wigang could see the Seungwisa training.

He didn’t like what he saw.

How will they ever get stronger like that?

They were sparring, but they were moving in sync with each other.

That was no different from just dancing.

They can’t get stronger by sparring like that.

It’s just self-satisfaction.

The Seungwisa who spotted Jeok Wigang during their sparring stopped moving and all bowed in unison.

 

“You’ve arrived!”

“What are you doing right now?”

“Pardon?”

“I asked what you’re doing right now.”

“We were training.”

“What kind of training is that? You’re just playing around.”

 

The Seungwisa’s faces turned red at Jeok Wigang’s harsh words.

 

“Sigh. This is my fault. I should have seen how you train first.”

“We’re sorry for disappointing you.”

“It’s fine. You can train properly from now on. I’ll train everyone here very properly.”

“Pardon?”

 

How is he going to train them?

Jeok Wigang grinned and said.

 

“Everyone prepare for combat.”

“Pardon?”

“Prepare for combat!”

 

At Jeok Wigang’s roar, the Seungwisa took fighting stances without understanding what was happening.

 

“That’s your combat preparation? Ridiculous.”

 

With an expression of disdain, he instantly launched his body toward where the Seungwisa were gathered.

The Seungwisa panicked seeing Jeok Wigang suddenly charging at them at high speed.

He began attacking them mercilessly.

 

Thud thud thud-.

 

“Kugh!”

“Kehk!”

“Krgh!”

 

Crash clang clang-.

 

The Seungwisa flew in all directions and rolled on the ground.

But he didn’t wait for them to get up after falling.

He moved quickly toward the Seungwisa who were still down.

 

Crack-.

 

“Kugh!”

 

Whoosh-.

 

A Seungwisa’s body flew up into the air from Jeok Wigang’s kick and was sent flying again.

The others saw their colleague getting beaten and endured their pain to stand up.

Because their turn might be next.

 

“Why, why are you doing this?”

 

When one Seungwisa cried out in an aggrieved voice, Jeok Wigang answered coldly.

 

“I’m training you. If you want to live, face me with the resolve to die.”

 

Faced with Jeok Wigang’s appearance overflowing with killing intent, the Seungwisa had to squeeze out all their strength to survive.

 

“Heaven Breaking Slash!”

“White Earth True Flash!”

“Single Thunder Assault!”

 

They mobilized all the martial arts they could deploy to attack Jeok Wigang.

But none of their attacks could hit Jeok Wigang.

 

Crack crack-.

 

“Kehk!”

“Kyaaak!”

 

They began getting beaten by Jeok Wigang again.

 

Crash clang clang-.

 

The Seungwisa rolling on the ground were no longer in the neat attire from their earlier training, but looked like beggars in clothes that had become complete rags.

Blood was flowing from their noses and mouths, and there wasn’t a part of them that didn’t hurt.

Even so, they had to get up.

Because Jeok Wigang was coming again, radiating killing intent.

They wanted to live.

 

“Damn it all!”

“Fine! Let’s do this!”

“Uaaah! Die!”

 

As the fear of death overwhelmed them, the Seungwisa, driven to desperation to survive, rushed at Jeok Wigang.

Only then did a slight smile appear on Jeok Wigang’s cold face.

What the Seungwisa had been lacking was fighting spirit.

Having been in this place where no one came for so long, their fighting spirit had naturally disappeared.

Jeok Wigang had now drawn it back out of them.

If he could now equip them with venom as well, they would become much stronger than they were now.

Since these were people who showed complete loyalty to Grandfather, he intended to make them properly strong.

 

 

 

“Ngh!”

“Urgh!”

 

Groans could be heard from all directions.

The Seungwisa couldn’t even stand properly and were crawling on the ground.

 

“Stand up.”

 

At Jeok Wigang’s words, the Seungwisa tried somehow to raise their bodies, but it wasn’t easy.

 

“If you don’t get up, we’ll start over from the beginning.”

“Ngggh!”

“Uaaak!”

 

At the mention of starting over, the Seungwisa gritted their teeth, endured the pain, and stood up from their positions.

They were in so much pain that their eyes were bloodshot and appeared red.

Jeok Wigang smiled coldly at the standing Seungwisa and said.

 

“Starting tomorrow, you’ll train with me. Since today is the first day, let’s finish here.”

 

Finishing here because it’s the first day?

Then tomorrow would be worse than this?

The Seungwisa turned pale.

The Jeok Wigang the Seungwisa had experienced was strong.

Strong enough that even if they all attacked together, they couldn’t touch even his collar.

Well, he must be that strong for the Castle Lord to secretly entrust him with missions.

 

“The Castle Lord thinks of you all as special… surely you’re not finding it difficult with just this much?”

 

Moved by the words that the Heavenly Martial Emperor thought of them as special, the Seungwisa all raised their voices in unison to respond.

 

“No sir! It’s not difficult at all!”

“Anyone who wants to quit even now can quit.”

 

The Seungwisa didn’t even budge.

Jeok Wigang smiled with satisfaction.

 

“Then tomorrow, let’s gather at this training ground by the early hours of jin time.”

“Understood!”

 

Jeok Wigang deliberately didn’t use the Healing Formation Technique on the Seungwisa.

If they thought they could receive healing after sparring ended, they might move carelessly.

Instead, he had laid down a healing formation at the Seungwisa’s accommodation.

If they went there and fell asleep, their bodies would be somewhat recovered by jin time tomorrow.

Only a slight amount of pain would remain.

After Jeok Wigang left, the remaining Seungwisa slumped down onto the ground.

 

“That was like a storm of training…”

“I can’t believe I’m still alive.”

“Earlier, I really thought I was going to die.”

 

They all muttered with dazed expressions on their faces.
