Chapter-29 (Abandoned Disciple of Heavenly Demon)

Episode 29: Breakthrough (2)

Bang!

Gok Yang’s attack was blocked by Jin Myeong’s swords that appeared suddenly.

“WHAT!”

Upon seeing Jin Myeong’s sword, Gok Yang regained his senses and stepped back.

“What do you think?”

“That’s considerable. It’s not just about copying the appearance.”

Gok Yang was amazed by the power contained in Jin Myeong’s sword. His hands, which were holding the sword, were trembling.

“Is that a flying sword?”

“It’s similar. A little unusual.”

Gongdong Twin Elders could sense that the white flame surrounding Jin Myeong’s sword was extraordinary too.

Shhh!

Soon, Jin Myeong’s sword rushed towards Gok Yang.

Then Gok Jeon blocked Jin Myeong’s sword. At the same time, Gok Yang moved towards Jin Myeong.

Phew!

However, Gok Yang had no choice but to stop because of the sword that appeared before his eyes.

“Wow. You can handle more than just one.”

Gok Yang looked at the sword blocking him and admired it.

‘How many people at that age can handle their internal energy with this much precision?”

‘It wouldn’t be easy to kill him.’

Perhaps because Jin Myeong couldn’t use Sword Art while controlling them with telekinesis, it wouldn’t be easy for him to win against masters like Gongdong Twin Elders.

“Need some help”, said Shin Ye-hyang, who suddenly appeared next to Jin Myeong.

“Then, I would appreciate it if you could take care of that skinny guy.”

Jin Myeong did not reject Shin Ye-hyang’s words. Instead, he left the burden of one elder directly to her.

“Although they are not as strong as The Noble Kings, it’s said that, they are close to them. Is that okay?”

The Noble Kings, title given to the thirteen most powerful warriors of world.

Although, both these elders weren’t included in the list, there’s rumour that, if both elder join hand, and attack together they are comparable to top ten Noble Kings.

“In other words, it is only when they join forces that they are comparable to the Ten Kings”, commented Jin Myeong, before continuing, “Okay. Then do your best.”

Shin Ye-hyang drew her sword and ran straight towards the Gok Jeon. And Jin Myeong began to push Gok Yang around comfortably again.

‘Those swords are annoying, not to mention those mysterious projectiles’, thought Gok Yang while fighting Jin Myeong.

Jin Myeong was using Heavenly Demon Sword Control Art to fight Gok Yang. And whenever he got any opening, he would use Heavenly Demon Divine Finger Art to shot energy shot at elder.

So, for Gok Yang, rather than swords, the projectile shot by Jin Myeong felt more threatening. It made him unable to attack, because he would need time to prepare his skills, but those projectiles could be shot anytime.

“You are already struggling with this, I was thinking of adding few more..?”

“What?”

It was when Gok Yang was looking surprised at Jin Myeong’s words. Suddenly, another sword flew in and started attacking him.

“Ugh!”

It must have been difficult for Gok Yang to block the four swords that were flying in at high speed from all directions, as wounds started to appear on his body.

Bang!

He was somehow holding on by blocking the vital points, but it didn’t seem like it would last long.

“How about one more?”

Suddenly, he saw Jin Myeong approaching him. That calm voice sent shivers down his spine.

Visor!

Gok Yang blocked the sword swung by Jin Myeong and immediately stepped back.

“Can you handle a sword in this situation?”

“Yeah, that’s possible.”

The swords were flying around, and Jin Myeong was even attacking them directly.

Regardless of whether Jin Myeong’s martial arts were strong or weak, it was such an amazing sight that he was speechless.

‘It’s only a sword controlled by internal energy, but it can withstand the strong attack. The most difficult thing was the white flame that wrapped around his sword.’

‘Only… Only if I could break Jin Myeong’s sword, it wouldn’t have been this hopeless.’

But Jin Myeong’s pure internal energy easily withstood Gok Yang’s strong energy.

‘This isn’t good. I didn’t think that little guy would be this strong.’

Gok Yang had no choice but to admit that Jin Myeong was not simply a young, late-blooming demon.

Woof!

Gok Yang stabbed the sword with a blue aura that had become even darker.

visor!

Jin Myeong blocked Gok Yang’s sword and extended his left hand.

When Gok Yang saw that Jin Myeong’s index finger was grey, he instinctively moved his body, and something brushed past his face.

“Ugh!”

After avoiding Heavenly Demon Divine Finger Art, Gok Yang tried to rush straight towards Jin Myeong.

But Jin Myeong’s swords were faster, which rushed at Gok Yang.

‘Damn it.’

Gok Yang had assessed Jin Myeong’s technique. These ‘flying swords’ were used with simple sword technique, but he found it difficult to face them, because there were many swords. Moreover, every time he tried to move, projectile was shot was in his way.

It wasn’t easy to approach Jin Myeong under such exquisite attacks.

“Kill that disgusting demonic bastard!”

Gok Yang heard shout of his sect’s disciples. He couldn’t help but feel downhearted, ‘is it because they saw me being pushed?’

The Taoist Priests of the Gongdong Sect rushed towards Jin Myeong.

Phew!

Gok Yang licked his lips when he saw that, but he never opened his mouth to stop them. It’s a blow to his pride.

‘Since I couldn’t kill this bastard alone, didn’t my fellow disciples also rush towards him?’

‘Then it would be better to use my disciples to kill that guy quickly. It would be beneficial to kill that guy quickly and destroy the Heavenly Demon Sect. I couldn’t stay held captive by him forever.’

“That’s how you will continue.”

Jin Myeong smiled brightly as he watched the Taoist priests of the Gongdong Sect rushing towards him.

Then, immediately, five swords began to rise around him.

‘Am I laughing even in this situation?’

Even as Jin Myeong watched the Taoist priests rushing towards him, he was handling five swords with a relaxed look on his face.

‘That guy’s internal energy is endless!’ Gok Yang couldn’t help but be surprised by Jin Myeong.

He felt that Jin Myeong’s internal energy was truly amazing. It’s not at a level that could be ignored.

Choaack!

Five swords covered in white flames soon began to fly and dance around the area.

“Kwaaak!”

“Cough!”

And every time the sword moved, a scream was heard.

Although there were some who were able to block the sword, most of the disciples were helpless against the flying sword.

“This is absolutely ridiculous.”

Even Gok Jeon, who was fighting Shin Ye-hyang, stopped his sword.

“What on earth is that guy’s true identity? Is he the son of the Heavenly Demon?”

“…….”

Shin Ye-hyang couldn’t answer that.

‘I don’t know.’

She never thought Jin Myeong would be this strong.

“I don’t think it can go on like this.”

Gok Jeon, who had distanced himself from Shin Ye-hyang, approached Gok Yang and spoke.

“Should we retreat?”

There was no longer a smile on Gok Yang’s face. Instead, he was glaring at Jin Myeong with a hideously distorted face.

“Calm down.”

“Ugh!”

Gok Jeon saw Jin Myeong, who seemed comfortable even though he was facing disciples of the Gongdong Sect.

“Isn’t it necessary for the us to kill that guy?”

“Hmm.”

It’s just as Jin Myeong had said. Gongdong Sect had asked something from Kunlun Sect while they would block the Heavenly Demon Sect from the front.

“We really can’t kill them. You were the one who said that.”

“Of course I know.”

‘That’s why we give ways to Shadow Demons who was going ahead.

Although they were here at Kunlun’s request, both of them did not really intend to destroy the Heavenly Demon Sect.

The plan was to appropriately block the path of the Heavenly Demon Sect and receive compensation from Kunlun.

“I was too arrogant.”

“Hmm.”

However, Gok Yang felt ashamed, when he was defeated by Jin Myeong, whom he thought he would win easily.

“Should we just leave him like this? It’s too dangerous.”

However, Gok Yang could not give up on killing Jin Myeong.

“Laughing Blood Demon? He is much worse than that guy?” instead of answering Gok Jeong, Gok Yang said staring at Jin Myeong in anger.

‘Could it be that he’s really that strong?’ Gok Jeon couldn’t help but ask himself after hearing Gok Yang.

Mok Ja-gyeong- Laughing Blood Demon. He is currently listed as most dangerous among the young demons of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

‘How many young warriors in the Central Plains can compare to him?’ Gok Yang would often ask this question to himself, after hearing about him.

‘I thought it was that guy from Heavenly Demon Sect, that we had to be most wary of, because it was clear that he would become a Heavenly Demon in the future. But now…’

‘If we only consider the current situation, he is not stronger than Laughing Blood Demon.’

Gok Yang didn’t take his eyes off Jin Myeong.

“He is someone with unique martial art skill, and that too had its weaknesses. If I get a little more used to his attacks, I might be able to deal with it.”

“But I had a strong feeling that his martial art wasn’t complete. While, the martial arts of the Laughing Blood Demon-Mok Ja-gyeong, are already complete.”

“Of course, if he learns the Heavenly Demonic Art, he will become stronger, but this person will be different.”

“A feeling of infinity. That’s what he made me feels.”

“A swordsman wielding five swords. Although he has not yet demonstrated swordsmanship, the ultimate goal of this martial art is clearly to demonstrate swordsmanship with multiple swords.”

“If he can handle more than five…”

“If he were to use more swords and perform other sword techniques, how many people in the Central Plains would be able to stand up to him?”

“And swordsmanship.”

“Unlike his energy shots, the swordsmanship he was practicing himself also seemed far from perfect. In short, it can be developed even further.”

“That’s why we have to kill him quickly. Before he perfects his martial arts.”

“Hhmm.”

After hearing Gok Yang, Gok Jeon views changed too.

 

Although he thought Jin Myeong was great for his age, Gok Yang, who had faced him directly, had declared that, they should eliminate Jin Myeong at all costs.

“Then what do you want us to do? Are you suggesting we attack together?”

“If necessary.”

Gok Jeon frowned and looked at Gok Yang.

“I’ve already figured out the weaknesses.”

Although Jin Myeong’s attacks were certainly tricky, the movements themselves were simple.

It seemed like an exquisite attack, but the attack itself was simple and the reconfiguring swords was poor.

If they can deal with Jin Myeong’s attacks well, he will eventually be able to approach him. Gok Yang was confident that he could slice Jin Myeong’s neck, if he managed to approach him.

“I think it would be best to kill this guy as quickly as possible and leave.”

Shadow Demon eventually broke through the Gongdong Sect, but the young demons of the Heavenly Demon Sect were still surrounded between the Gongdong Sect and the Kunlun Sect.

“If this continues, Kunlun will catch those guys.”

‘We should leave this place right after killing Jin Myeong. Then, the anger of the Heavenly Demon Sect will be directed at the Kunlun Sect.’

“Is it really okay to be this cautious?”

“If the Heavenly Demon Sect had come over, it would have destroyed Kunlun.”

War is truly complicated.

It could be something minor, or it could be something serious and be overlooked. And Gok Yang was convinced that if Heavenly Demon Sect moved, Jeong Ui-maeng would also move.

‘Kunlun Sect will pay the price.’

The Heavenly Demon Sect have to be satisfied with that. Gok Yang was confident that if it went any further, the Orthodox Alliance would stop it.

“I don’t know why you’re so sure, but if that’s what you’re saying, then it must be so.”

And Gok Jeon nodded to Gok Yang’s words.

“Then we must move before more disciples die.”

“I’ll cut that guy’s neck off, so you block the attack.”

Unlike a moment ago, Gok Yang was smiling again. That means he found some free time.

“I think it’s coming soon.”

Shin Ye-hyang, who was fighting the Gongdong Sect’s Taoists with Jin Myeong, discovered that the Gongdong Twin Elders were moving.

“What are you going to do?”

“Do you think the two of us can beat those old men?”

“No. They say that twins become stronger when they attack together.”

Shin Ye-hyang shook her head firmly.

“Really? Then…….”

Jin Myeong glanced back.

The warriors of the Heavenly Demon Sect were still seen fighting against the disciples of the Kunlun Sect and the Gongdong Sect.

‘Are you very relaxed even in that situation?’

The most notable of these was the Mok Ja-gyeong. Unlike others who appeared to be having a hard time, Mok Ja-kyung had some composure.

“Shall we try to break through?”

There was no need to kill all the enemies. If these people try to escape, it would be difficult to catch them except by a join twin.

“Are you going to abandon them?”

“If you are weak, you should die.”

Although it was a cold remark, Shin Ye-hyang nodded.

“I will take the lead.”

She didn’t hesitate and immediately swung her sword hard.

“Ugh!”

A huge storm arose, blowing away the Taoists who stood in her way. The two people flew into the gap without hesitation.
