chapter 58
58. Battle of 100,000 Mountains (4)
A castle on Mt. Tenmandae.
The territory of Cheonma Shinkyo is wide, and there are countless believers belonging to the religion.
There is a minimum entry standard, but not all of them can be masters.
“Kill! Go ahead and kill me!”
Protestant warriors were holding a sit-in on the walls of a relatively remote area.
Most of them are peak unmanned. It was a state where he was treated as a worthy soldier in Moorim, but in the current situation, it was difficult to find a way to live alone.
Realizing that there was no escape anywhere in the midst of pouring enemies, they eventually united on top of the castle wall and fought against the monsters.
─aaagh!
It’s a corpse running amok under the castle wall.
It was a group of corpses that moved deliberately rather than zombies who vaguely coveted the slaughter of living beings without reason.
There were also corpses that had the state of being alive, and they were Jiangshi who were revived by the power of blood demons.
The physically gifted Jiangshi and the beasts who suddenly jumped out of the crowd and climbed the wall became the vanguard of the army.
It pulled a warrior who stabbed a spear at the castle wall and wielded a fist, and the object with excellent leaping power bit off the scruff of the neck.
Either way, the result was the same.
“aaagh!”
It was death.
Endless death, even rejoining the army of corpses with their flesh ripped and their organs dismembered.
The frequency of this was low, but the sparse screams echoed and remained in the memories of the warriors.
The sight of a familiar, terrifying corpse crawling up the wall became a nightmare.
“… … ugh.”
My body was sluggish with feelings of fear and astonishment.
As a result, there were cases where the momentary concentration was broken and dragged down the wall, while others moved more desperately.
In order not to be like that, in order to survive somehow, I had to move.
Knowing this fact, those who did their best to resist survived until the end of the day.
“Are there any reinforcements from the headquarters? I told you that if you hold out just a little longer, reinforcements will come!!”
“Please shut up!”
“Close your mouth and stab the spear! Damn you bastards!”
Even among the survivors, various conflicts, hopes, and despair were mixed, but somehow they survived.
Desperately resisting, they lived their lives until the time the bombs fell.
Reinforcements finally arrived.
─Quaaang!
“… … uh?”
something fell from the sky
It crashed at terrifying speed, unable to properly recognize its shape, and fell among the legions of corpses, causing a roar and disappearing.
A pit resembling a crater seemed to have been made in the ground beneath the wall, but it was not very noticeable due to the number of dead bodies.
The soldier who had been stunned by the fall of something for a moment was diligently spearing again and found him at the moment when corpses suddenly soared into the sky.
─Keee
The Jiangshi or demon screamed.
The reason why they couldn’t be accurately distinguished was because several of them flew in the sky at the same time and were separated.
I’m sorry-! The corpses that filled the ridge were cut in half in an instant.
It was a sword attack that suddenly crossed the army.
The reason the drone was able to recognize that fact was not because of its excellent body vision.
It wasn’t particularly exciting.
I just had a little bit of space, observation, to look around.
In fact, the one who didn’t recognize it was even weirder.
Everything under the walls that could be seen now had been cut in half.
The tree trunks on the ridge were cut at once and flew through the air in an instant, and the corpses whose internal air and body were not properly preserved were easily cut into pieces like rotten radishes.
Most of the army of corpses that had plagued the soldiers all day were wiped out.
The only ones who survived the sword attack were the strong-armed Jiangshi and demons.
Even their heads flew into the sky when the greatsword moved again.
He faced death so easily that it was futile.
“… … Crazy, doesn’t it make sense to tell you right before the descent point?”
By a knight with a somewhat angry mood. The army of corpses was all returned to the arms of Mother Earth by the iron-clad giant.
Without even time to express their joy that the warriors on the wall survived, the gijin moved quickly.
[ Defeat the named ‘Blood Demon’. ]
It was because of the revelation that popped up in one corner of his field of vision.
Ta-dad-!
I used to run towards the goal without hesitation, but the gijin knew it.
The fact that that blood demon would be much stronger than he was.
Among the guys with demons in their special editions, none of them were easygoing, and I could guess his strength from the news Choi Kang-jun said.
At least, the end of the hwagyeong, or the monster of the prefecture.
And at this moment, Kishin once again realized the strength of the Blood Demon.
‘… … Demons are gathering from all sides.’
Not only that, it was pulling the morale and blood of all corpses, regardless of the enemy.
This wasn’t simply gathering qi in its natural state into the body.
The realm of the void was also far out of reach.
‘Half transcended.’
At least, the opponent was in the realm of an immortal who had escaped his mortal destiny.
A monster of the prefectural police, which is a far higher level.
Realizing this, the Kishin frowned and moved at the speed of thunder.
─Quaaa!
Even when a big explosion occurred in the sky, it did not stop and continued to move.
I knew from a long time ago that the guy whose existence itself was questionable, who fell from the flying boat without a word, was engaged in a fight with a blood demon.
The only thing in her mind was the idea of joining as soon as possible and adding strength.
After jumping over dozens of mountain peaks in an instant, the Kishin suddenly stopped on top of a high cliff.
hard-
I felt more energy than the previous explosion.
The most terrible and violent feast of energy that I have ever experienced in my life.
However, a heterogeneous energy in the midst of it, a halo of light, was suddenly caught in the spirit.
So the kishin stopped moving.
For some reason, among the many talents she had, her exceptionally good intuition shouted.
look at that now
otherwise you will regret it.
So she saw
A group of brilliant lights that would blind you if you were not careful.
“… … her.”
Suddenly, two suns appeared in the sky.
The heat seemed to burn my throat.
The strong breath of the sun came back as soon as I inhaled a breath that had stopped for a moment.
aaa!!!
The mountain shook only in the aftermath of the explosion.
***
The universe is vast, and the waves emitted by the stars summoned there are powerful.
It’s even violent enough to destroy everything around it just by showing up.
The energy comparable to the sun burned the forest and blinded the living.
It was only in the aftermath.
Because there was only one thing that hit the starlight that appeared above my hand.
─Quaaagh!
It feels like exorcising evil spirits.
Looking at the guy screaming because he couldn’t die even though his entire body was burned, it seemed like he had just changed his job to an exorcist.
Even including his previous life, he was such a filthy persistent guy that he could be counted on the first finger.
‘It’s already this much.’
As you can see, it was not yet ripe.
Although he reached the level of a Hyeon-gyeong, he did not fully learn how to handle his will.
The same goes for the arrangement of knowledge including martial arts.
If you set those things right, it was a soldier and an enemy that would become much stronger.
‘So let’s kill them here.’
There was no hobby of half-killing, giving enlightenment, and sending them back to life.
Be sure to bury it here.
It would be a lie if I said I had no regrets as a soldier, but getting rid of the aftereffects was the priority.
If the opponent’s stage had been a little higher, it would have been this side that would have lost.
‘I don’t have time.’
The limit of qi, the end of the time to maintain the Cheonyang Jieum Taegeukmu (天陽地陰太極武) is approaching.
So I had to hurry even more.
I felt like I had to overdo it this time too.
“───Fully open.”
I activated the wings of the fighting spirit that I had turned off in case it interfered with the flow of energy.
At the same time as the rays of light bloom, the body’s ability rises rapidly.
Stepping into the sky, I took a powerful leap. I stretched my hand forward.
The energy gathered in one point of the fist sprouted.
“The Pole.”
I dug into his arms at once.
Even while his whole body was burning, the blood demon reached out and tried to stop it, but his movements were too slow before the pain.
─Quad Deuk Deuk!
The outstretched hand sharply dug into the chest and grabbed the heart inside it.
Before I knew it, my gaze met with the blood demon whose eyes had been regenerated.
Even though the attack stopped for a very short time, it regenerated organs in the meantime.
‘A filthy persistent guy.’
Just like my impressions from my previous life, it seemed that he had something to say to me.
The blood demon tore the corners of its mouth and spoke in a voice full of regret.
“Ah, you are the most beautiful in the world. I should have eaten you.”
It wasn’t worth hearing any more.
I clasped my hand.
Perong, the star’s heart has been destroyed.
***
Teouk, God descended to the earth.
In the eyes of the first elder who looked at it from beginning to end, he could only see the God of Destruction appearing on the ground.
Having greeted him with the mind of the first elder, no, a soldier, Hae-hyeon Mu approached him with hesitant steps and asked politely.
“Is there anything you want me to do?”
Choi Kang-joon paused for a moment at that tone of voice and looked down at the back of his head, which was bent as high as possible, and then answered.
“Let’s go to the main altar.”
It was time to go see a friend.
