Chapter 460. Wh-What Is That…?
Deung Ang-cheon.
Among the Guardian Deities, he was the one who became a Guardian Deity after Dokgo Ya-pae.
His strength was also the highest among the six gathered here.
Excluding Dokgo Ya-pae, he was also the last to awaken.
After arriving at This Place.
He was shocked by the scene that unfolded.
One Guardian Deity lay collapsed in ruins, while another had no trace left.
Judging by the fact that no qi energy could be felt, it seemed they had been defeated.
But to leave no traces behind.
Had they been completely annihilated?
Such thoughts even crossed his mind.
Therefore.
As soon as he arrived.
Without even looking around.
He unleashed a full-power attack on the humans on the Castle Wall.
Combining the strength of all six.
The response that came from the Castle Wall was.
Strong.
Two humans were holding off the combined power of six Guardian Deities, even if only briefly.
It was understandable that the two Guardian Deities who arrived first had been defeated.
More than that.
‘Where are the jiangshi?’
Hadn’t Il-no said so.
That he had sent all the remaining jiangshi of the Blood Cult as well.
But there were no jiangshi here whatsoever.
There were countless fallen remains of them.
But it couldn’t have been just this much.
Had they been defeated without even leaving corpses behind?
Such doubts briefly arose.
But what he needed to do now was kill all the humans before his eyes and return with their corpses.
He needed to replenish as many as the jiangshi that had disappeared.
The strong ones needed to be kept barely alive.
To turn them into Dark Blood Jiangshi.
While having such idle thoughts for a moment.
Their attack was gradually advancing toward the group of humans.
They had held out quite well, but this was the natural result.
Just as the corners of his mouth twitched and a cruel smile-like expression was about to form.
KWAAAAAAAANG!
A tremendous roar erupted and he was swept away by a sudden fierce and savage gale, flying backward.
A truly unsightly appearance.
Deung Ang-cheon lay on the Ground like that, looking up at the Sky.
What on earth had just happened?
He couldn’t understand.
So he got up to check.
There was a man who had suddenly appeared.
‘When?’
He hadn’t sensed anyone’s approach.
A human who suddenly appeared as if dropping from the Sky.
Above all.
He had instantly ended the tremendous struggle of qi energies.
And he had blown the aftershock only toward their side.
The fact that the side where the humans gathered was unharmed was proof of this.
As the dust gradually settled.
That arrogant expression became visible.
“These fucking bastards, there are six of them…”
The quietly muttered voice was clearly audible.
[Attack!]
Deung Ang-cheon got up while giving mental commands to the other Guardian Deities.
Swoosh.
The Guardian Deities flew in simultaneously from six directions.
Their bodies were emanating a menacing light with gray qi energy.
Their entire bodies were covered with something like gang qi of unknown energy.
Ha Mu-baek’s sword moved.
Clang! Clang clang clang! Clang!
With one sword, he struck all six.
Loud collision sounds rang out.
Ha Mu-baek’s sword did not rest.
The Myeolcheon Gangsi also did not rest.
Attack and defense continued without pause.
The Sword Aura on Ha Mu-baek’s sword gradually grew thicker.
The qi energy of the Myeolcheon Gangsi also grew stronger.
Deung Ang-cheon frowned.
There were no less than six Guardian Deities.
They were launching a Combined Attack.
Yet there was a human confidently holding his ground and fighting evenly.
Could such a human really exist?
‘Still, he’s human.’
Being human, there were limits to his strength.
Unlike themselves, who had become gods after meeting death for the sake of protection.
[Myeong Cho-jin. Release all your power!]
At Deung Ang-cheon’s instruction.
Changes began to occur in the body of one of the Myeolcheon Gangsi.
The eyes of the Myeolcheon Gangsi who had been unleashing the most ferocious attacks turned blood-red.
His muscles swelled throughout his body and his size doubled.
At the same time, the qi energy he emitted also doubled.
A strange light flashed in Ha Mu-baek’s eyes.
The Myeolcheon Gangsi he had fought at the end of the last war had not shown such an appearance.
Whooom.
A massive Fist Strike flew toward Ha Mu-baek’s face.
A fist the same size as Ha Mu-baek’s head.
He raised his sword to block it.
Clang!
With that sound, Ha Mu-baek took one step backward.
“Not bad.”
At Ha Mu-baek’s calm reaction.
Deung Ang-cheon frowned, but he had his own task to do.
Taking advantage of the moment when Myeong Cho-jin poured fierce attacks on Ha Mu-baek.
Deung Ang-cheon swiftly retreated backward.
Ha Mu-baek glanced at him.
But didn’t pursue.
Because he was heading in the opposite direction from where the people were.
If he had gone toward where Seol-ran was, he would have cast aside everything else and torn that bastard apart first.
Myeong Cho-jin drew two massive sabers from his back.
Before his transformation, he had carried sabers as tall as himself on his back.
Now they were just the right size.
The gray energy emanating from his body wrapped around the blades.
It looked similar to manifesting blade qi.
The two sabers flew fiercely toward Ha Mu-baek.
While Ha Mu-baek’s sword blocked the two sabers without much difficulty.
The other four Myeolcheon Gangsi also drew their respective weapons and charged toward Ha Mu-baek.
A one-against-five battle.
Even so, Ha Mu-baek didn’t retreat.
He was blocking all the attacks coming from all directions.
Ha Mu-baek was blocking as if he knew exactly where their weapons would come from.
“Those bastards. They’re using Blood Cult martial arts.”
At that sight, Dam Mu-heun muttered.
“Even seeing it again, those martial arts make my skin crawl.”
So Hwi-ung nodded.
The jiangshi were each using martial arts that Blood Cult masters had used countless times during the last Murim War.
Among them.
The blade technique used by the Myeolcheon Gangsi whose size had suddenly doubled.
Nine Layers Nine Blood Blade.
It was a troublesome blade technique whose power doubled as the forms progressed.
With that size, and using twin sabers to perform Nine Layers Nine Blood Blade.
So Hwi-ung shook his head slightly.
When he imagined how many forms he could withstand if he were in Ha Mu-baek’s position, it was a natural reaction.
The white sword qi surrounding Ha Mu-baek’s sword became so dense it was almost transparent.
Bang!
Clang!
Crash!
Loud explosions rang out continuously.
A storm raged.
The people on the castle wall could only watch that scene.
The power was so tremendous they couldn’t even dare approach.
‘Well done, Mu-baek.’
Wi Ji-gun watched that sight with a proud face.
He was endlessly proud of his disciple who had surpassed his own level by several stages.
After confirming Ha Mu-baek’s admirable display, Wi Ji-gun immediately began energy circulation.
Even though Ha Mu-baek had come.
Even though he was displaying such powerful prowess.
Since no one knew when something might happen.
It was to maintain perfect condition.
So Hwi-ung, who glanced at Wi Ji-gun’s actions, also began energy circulation.
Deung Ang-cheon’s eyes gleamed as he stood quite far from the battle between Ha Mu-baek and the five Guardian Deities.
“To think such a monster exists in Gangho. This won’t be easy.”
The Guardian Deities were increasingly revealing their abilities.
The power of their attacks was increasing and fierce energy was swirling.
But the one who had dropped from the sky was still holding out.
That level of power.
‘I thought only Elder Dokgo was capable of this.’
Deung Ang-cheon recalled the First Guardian God Dokgo Ya-pae.
He soon.
Decided to make his next move.
His eyes, sharp as sword qi, became even blacker.
When darkness darker than pitch black filled his eyes.
Black energy surged from his body and spread to the surroundings.
Black mist.
That’s exactly what it looked like.
It couldn’t invade where Ha Mu-baek and the five Guardian Deities were fighting, but it covered the surrounding area.
Ha Mu-baek’s gaze turned toward Deung Ang-cheon.
Because although he had fought countless battles with the Blood Cult, this was the first time he’d seen such a sight.
Part of Ha Mu-baek’s attention was diverted by the black mist.
Even so, he was still blocking the Myeolcheon Gangsi’s attacks well.
No, with appropriate counterattacks, the Myeolcheon Gangsi were actually accumulating damage.
When the black mist covered a certain range.
Strange incantations began flowing from Deung Ang-cheon’s mouth.
At the same time, the black mist began trembling finely and scattering dark light.
Blood Heaven Death Spirit Soul Return Great Blood Technique.
Deung Ang-cheon began performing a technique that no one in Blood Cult history had ever been able to perform.
To perform this technique.
The first condition was.
To be an elder of the Blood Cult who had learned jiangshi arts.
The second condition was.
To be a Guardian Deity.
These were the two requirements.
That’s right.
Deung Ang-cheon was an elder of the Blood Cult from ancient times.
And he was also the only elder among the Guardian Deities.
In other words, Deung Ang-cheon was the only one in Blood Cult history who could use this technique.
The moment black energy exploded from his body.
Rustle. Rustle.
Squirm. Squirm.
Changes occurred.
All sorts of jiangshi that had been cut, split, and fallen.
Those bastards were moving.
Their severed bodies were crudely reattached.
And they stood up.
Among them was one that couldn’t reattach its severed head and was carrying it tucked under its arm.
“Uuuuuaaahhhhh.”
“Uahhhuahhhhuahh.”
The ones making strange cries.
Moved slowly.
Toward the castle wall.
Among them were those who had been Dark Blood Jiangshi.
But they seemed unable to recover the intelligence they had before falling silent.
They moved like Death Jiangshi.
Even so, the aura they emanated was far from ordinary.
“Cr, cr, crazy….”
Dam Mu-heun, who was watching that sight from atop the castle wall, muttered unconsciously.
“Wh, what is that…?”
“Does this even make sense?”
Chaos.
Truly extreme confusion swept over the people.
Jiangshi, demons created using the corpses of the dead.
They had defeated those demons.
Yet they were reviving again in such a hideous and grotesque form.
At the sudden confusion, So Hwi-ung and Wi Ji-gun opened their eyes.
They too had sensed this anomaly.
And at the scene unfolding before their eyes, they couldn’t help but furrow their brows.
Slowly.
Those creatures approaching the castle wall while emanating a sinister aura.
Ha Mu-baek tried to block them.
But the five Myeolcheon Gangsi blocked Ha Mu-baek’s path.
That wasn’t all.
Deung Ang-cheon’s mystical arts continued.
A jiangshi’s hand that emerged from underground grabbed Ha Mu-baek’s ankle.
“Pathetic.”
With swift movement, that hand was immediately shattered.
But it succeeded in troubling Ha Mu-baek.
Gongsun Mu-oe looked at that scene with bewildered eyes and asked Ma Jin-gi who was beside him.
“Is, is such a thing possible? A jiangshi that uses mystical arts….”
It was a voice as if his soul had left him.
Something he had never even imagined had become reality and unfolded before his eyes.
Ma Jin-gi shook his head.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen such a thing. No, there aren’t even records of such a thing. Though it might exist in divine texts….”
Ma Jin-gi seemed equally dumbfounded.
“Could you perhaps stop it?”
Gongsun Mu-oe asked cautiously.
Ma Jin-gi shook his head.
“The distance is too far for my mystical arts to reach.”
Meanwhile, those things—whether newly revived jiangshi, monsters, or demons—were approaching moment by moment.
“Go!”
“Get lost!”
At that moment.
Wi Ji-gun and So Hwi-ung simultaneously burst into shouts and threw their sword and blade respectively.
Qi Control Sword and Qi Control Blade unfolded simultaneously, cutting down the approaching creatures.
Just as relief was about to appear on people’s faces at that sight.
Those who had fallen.
Began to rise again in crudely reassembled forms.
“Wh, what….”
Someone muttered with a sickened face.
Yeon Ha-min’s face was also rigidly hardened.
She was still activating her future sight.
The future her eyes showed.
Was only the sight of those charging monsters falling.
But since it was only the future a breath away at most.
Even she couldn’t know what would happen next.
Ha Mu-baek frowned.
‘A jiangshi creating jiangshi?’
And so simply reviving jiangshi that had been defeated and silenced just by scattering qi energy?
Making them into immortal monster-like creatures that rise again even when defeated?
He was a dangerous one.
Ha Mu-baek made that judgment about Deung Ang-cheon.
However.
There wasn’t much qi energy left in his body now.
He had consumed much energy rushing here at full speed.
And upon arrival, what he had witnessed.
He had used a considerable amount of his remaining energy to block that tremendous collision of qi energies.
Now he was recovering it while fighting.
Therefore.
He fought only to the extent of responding to the five Myeolcheon Gangsi’s attacks.
Fortunately, Master and the Alliance Leader also seemed to have recovered their internal energy to some degree.
He could only hope they would hold out just a little longer.
Ha Mu-baek once again crossed swords with those charging toward him.
Even during this, recovered qi energies were steadily accumulating in Ha Mu-baek’s dantian.
