Chapter 246
In the deep darkness.
Two shadows flickered inside a secret room where even moonlight could not penetrate.
“I hear Prince Lee and First Miss are getting engaged.”
A cold voice flowed from the young man sitting on the grand chair. Somehow, he seemed pleased.
“An engagement between the Heavenly Killer Star and the Purple Forbidden Star, isn’t that amusing?”
A strange smile spread across the young man’s lips.
“Will you just watch and see?”
The masked man asked cautiously with his forehead pressed to the floor.
His voice was filled with tension, as if even daring to ask was sinful.
“Do not act rashly.”
Cold sweat trickled down the masked man’s spine at the man’s chilly tone.
“I-I apologize.”
“I understand your desire to atone, but everything has its time.”
As the young man scratched the armrest of his chair with his nails, an eerie sound echoed through the secret room.
“Finally, an answer has come from The Organization.”
“Blood Heaven’s Revenge, long live, long live, ten thousand years!”
The man listened to the masked man’s triple cheer with his eyes closed, as if savoring it.
“Since they’re engaged, there will be a wedding within a few years. We kill the bride the night before the wedding.”
The masked man’s head jerked back.
“The night before the wedding?”
The eyes of the man in the darkness flashed with madness.
“The happiest and most beautiful day will become the worst day of her life.”
The man added with a bizarre expression.
“Hmm, what would happen if we made First Miss’s death look like Cheonma’s doing?”
“Ma-make it look like Eok Yeo-gwang’s doing…!”
“The mother of First Miss we killed was the only woman Cheonma ever loved, wasn’t she? First Miss is the spitting image of her mother.”
“That’s correct. Everyone mistook her for Tak Ga-ju’s real daughter come back to life.”
“A senile Cheonma who can’t forget his first love targets that daughter. Hahaha! This will turn out quite entertainingly!”
A sinister and evil energy dominated the secret room.
“The Heavenly Killer Star must awaken filled with deep murderous intent. That way it will be easier to dye this world in blood.”
“Ah! I await that day!”
The masked man cried out in ecstasy.
“On that blood we will bloom our blood flowers. Blood flowers and blood fire.”
“For the glory of our organization, I will gladly spill blood!”
“Those blood flowers should have bloomed 17 years ago!”
The masked man’s body trembled greatly at the man’s roar.
“Do you remember the failure!”
“I should beg forgiveness with death, but…”
“Do not forget The Organization’s grace.”
Thud!
The masked man slammed his head hard against the floor. Red blood seeped from his forehead, staining his mask.
“This time I absolutely will not disappoint you!”
“Learn from that past failure and devise every possible means and method from now on.”
“Yes!”
“I will not tolerate a second failure.”
At the man’s murderous voice, the masked man cried out once more.
“Blood Heaven’s Revenge, long live, long live, ten thousand years!”
The darkness filling the secret room only deepened, as if swallowing their wicked scheme.
My eyes and Eok I-geon’s collided in midair. In that instant, our energies clashed and even the surrounding air vibrated.
“Ha!”
“Hap!”
With thunderous battle cries, I unleashed the Mahu Hwan-hon Shin-gong.
Whoooosh!
Red energy enveloped my body, and I soared up the Majung-cheon Wall toward the sky like a legendary phoenix taking flight.
Tap!
The steps of Mabang Bicheongang flapped like wings at my feet, treading on empty air.
Thud!
It was then that a heavy sound came from the opposite cliff.
I quickly flipped my body like an acrobat.
I could see Eok I-geon ascending by kicking off the wall with imposing bearing.
It was the Cheonma Gunrimbeo I had learned from Grandfather Cheonma’s insights.
It was a magnificent footwork technique no matter when I saw it.
With each step he took, I felt as if thousands of troops and ten thousand horses were charging.
Eok I-geon turned his body to look at me.
Flash!
Whoosh!
The moment our gazes met, we launched ourselves toward each other.
Thud thud thud thud!
I cut through the overwhelming momentum created by Eok I-geon’s Cheonma Gunrimbeo in one stroke.
Boom!
The atmosphere burst and heaven and earth shook.
The moment our bodies crossed, we grasped each other’s hands and drew a perfect rotation.
And we soared toward the sky even higher and more magnificently.
The entire area swayed, caught up in the energy emanating from us.
The powers of Cheonma Gunrimbeo and Mabang Bicheongang intertwined, and we were flung outside Majung-cheon.
Whoosh—
Step!
Once we left Majung-cheon, the world completely changed.
The Outer Realm where pure white snow stretched endlessly. As we set foot there, fierce snow winds whipped around us, cutting to the bone.
Eok I-geon and I crossed the snowfield without leaving even a trace in the snow and stood beneath a peak of Cheonsan.
When I first succeeded at leaving no traces in snow, I had screamed with joy, but now this much was routine for me.
Having reached our destination, I looked at Eok I-geon.
Though the blizzard was blurring the boundary between heaven and earth, even within it, Eok I-geon’s black pupils were as clear as unextinguishable flames.
“Can you do it?”
Looking up at the snow-capped mountain that soared piercingly high, Eok I-geon asked.
I smiled lightly and raised the Mahu Bonghwang Sword.
“I’m not the same Seolha as before.”
At my answer, Eok I-geon nodded and took a true step.
Thud!
Cheonma Gunrimbeo—that single step created massive waves as if shaking the mountain range itself.
Rumble rumble rumble!
Snow beneath his feet bounced up, and sudden waves surged through the snowy mountains.
Boom!
The tremor that started from Eok I-geon’s foot finally exploded at the mountain’s peak, at the very top.
Clear and resonant vibrations pierced through the air and crossed the earth.
Crack crack crack—
The sound of earth splitting crawled up from very deep places.
Rumble!
The eternal snow covering Cheonsan collapsed all at once.
It wasn’t just a simple avalanche.
The mountain was collapsing.
Even massive boulders and thick trees couldn’t withstand it, swept away somewhere in the snowstorm.
A blizzard so thick I couldn’t see an inch ahead blocked my view.
But I could sense it with my qi.
Enormous snowballs were rolling toward me.
“Hah!”
I raised my sword to face them.
Wooooong!
The Mahu Bonghwang Sword, responding to my energy, trembled lightly and let out a clear cry.
Bow down and pay homage.
No one can stand against where Mahu stands.
Mahu Gunrimgeom, Mahu Dokjwa.
Clear demonic energy gathered on the sword.
The demonic energy soon took distinct form and condensed into sword qi.
Red energy wrapped around the blade and gradually extended outward.
As the sword qi stretched over a foot long, I felt like I was holding a great sword.
“You’d better follow me closely without falling behind!”
I shouted without looking back.
“I will.”
I heard Eok I-geon’s laughing voice.
“Then I’ll see you at the summit.”
With those words, I threw myself forward.
I ascended upward, cutting through the raging snowstorm.
“Hyah!”
I sliced through house-sized snowballs in half and smashed everything that blocked my path as I headed for the summit.
And finally, I faced the massive snowstorm.
It was today’s final trial.
‘I’ll break through!’
I released all my internal energy.
The sword qi rippling on the blade grew even larger.
At the same time, my clothes swelled as if about to burst.
As if it had been waiting for me, the snowstorm poured down toward me.
I moved forward as if cutting the world with my sword.
Do not stand in Mahu’s way.
Even the heavens bend to her gesture.
Mahu Gunrimgeom, Mahu Hwicheon.
Swish!
I swung my sword again and again toward the endlessly attacking snowstorm.
The form of a phoenix dwelt in the afterimage created by the sword light.
The avalanche split and cracked as it shattered.
“Hah!”
I swung my final strike at the collapsing center.
Crash!
With a thunderous roar that shook heaven and earth, the snowstorm split in half.
As if the sky was opening, clear skies revealed themselves through the blizzard.
A crystal-clear sky without a single cloud welcomed me.
I spread the Mabang Bicheongang and soared into the sky.
The endlessly blue sky—that was freedom.
“I finally did it!”
My voice filled with joy spread throughout Cheonsan.
That sound became an echo and returned to me.
“Young Master!”
Eok I-geon was already looking up at me from below.
If I wasn’t mistaken, his face showed pride directed at me.
Without Eok I-geon’s help, I never could have achieved this.
The martial arts novice who had recklessly rushed to Sichuan while crying about getting revenge for Grandmother no longer existed.
Hyeolcheon-hoe.
A secret organization created by descendants of the Blood Sect.
The time when their emergence would truly ignite was now.
Hyeolcheon-hoe, who in the original story used every possible means to drive out Eok I-geon after he unified the martial arts world.
At nineteen years old, I was perfectly prepared to fight against them.
