Return of Mount Hua Sect - Chapter 1749



Only Noblemtl

Episode 1749. You can call it venting your anger. (4)

Hwaaaaah!

The blood cultist’s eyes opened wide as if they were going to tear apart.

The place where his enemy had been just a moment ago was instantly covered with red petals.

‘Illusion? Or an illusion sword?’

Either way, it’s equally astonishing.

The Blood Cult’s deformed sword, which had paused for a moment, was swung again. More powerfully than before.

It is an incredibly strange sword energy. However, even at a glance, the energy contained in the sword energy is not that great. Even if you cover your appearance with that strange sword energy, the person behind it will not disappear, so you just have to cut the sword energy down.

“asleep!”

But at that moment, the red petals that had covered Yunjong burst out in all directions.

Paaaaah!

‘what?’

The black energy that rushed in before they could even react pierced through the bodies of the Blood Cultists.

Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!

The Blood Cultists were swept away by a storm of petals and were thrown back.

A body as tough as rubber. Even a sword could not penetrate that body, but the thin, flower-like sword energy pierced through it with ease.

Thud! Thud!

Those who are stuck on the ground roll around on the floor.

“… … Phew.”

Yun Jong straightened his posture, which had been lowered to the lowest point. His breathing was not rapid, but sweat was running down his forehead like rain.

Even though it was intense, it was only a single blow, but a feeling of weakness, as if I would pass out at any moment, took over my body. It was as if something inside my body had been completely pulled out.

“Ugh… … .”

At that moment, the voice of the fallen cultist was heard.

“That damn bastard. Showing off his tricks.”

These people, whose entire bodies were riddled with black holes, were getting up again as if nothing had happened.

“… … .”

Yoon Jong’s eyes suddenly darkened. The tentacles in question were wriggling between the black holes.

‘Is it a failure?’

I don’t know. He couldn’t define exactly what he had done either.

“Not bad for a last-ditch effort.”

The blood cultist facing Yunjong wipes his mouth with his sleeve. The tentacles wriggling through the holes in his cheeks are making Yunjong feel nauseous.

“But even so, they are unbelievers.”

Even though his wounds had not yet fully healed, the Blood Cultists who had raised their bodies began to press Yunjong again. Their indifferent attitude towards the holes in his flesh suffocated Yunjong’s heart.

“Those creatures who have not received the grace of the teachings cannot stand up to us. I regret not having converted to the teachings earlier… … .”

The blood cult member who had been muttering something suddenly stops talking.

“… … .”

It wasn’t just him. Those who had been closing the distance with him, surrounding Yunjong, also stopped walking all at once.

‘what?’

Yun Jong’s eyes were filled with bewilderment. However, the eyes of the Blood Cultists were filled with even more bewilderment.

“What the… … . Ugh! Woofwoofwoof!”

The central cultist clutched his chest and knelt on the floor. He then vomited out a bowlful of black, dead blood from his mouth.

“This… this… this…? Ugh!”

The Blood Cultist, who had once again vomited blood, looked at his own body with astonished eyes. His body, which had been healing, began to bleed again. As if reversing the miracles they had seen so far, his wounds were rapidly worsening.

“Blessings, blessings of the church?”

The Blood Cultist’s eyes shook so much that he could no longer move.

“This, this is nonsense!”

The blood cultist’s hands trembled like an aspen tree, perhaps more shocked by the fact that the tentacles protecting him were no longer moving than by the fact that his wound was wide open and his life was in danger.

“You! What are you doing… … . Uwaaaaaaaaa!”

The Blood Cultist once again spits out thick black blood.

“Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!”

The blood cultist, out of breath, looked at Yunjong again. A fear that had not been there before was rising strongly in his eyes.

The blood cultist, who seemed conflicted about something, bit his lips hard.

“Step back.”

“Yes? But… … .”

“Back off!”

The blood followers nodded.

Those who glared at Yun Jong with hateful eyes slowly backed away, then quickly turned around and started to walk away.

“there……!”

Yun Jong, who was instinctively trying to chase after them, suddenly stopped walking and took a deep breath.

‘Let’s calm down.’

If they can no longer regenerate, they are not such a difficult opponent. Even Yoon Jong alone can handle them. However, it would be premature to conclude that they have completely lost their strange ability.

Besides, he didn’t come here to defeat the enemy right now.

“Phew… … .”

Yun Jong took a deep breath and looked at his sword. It was no different from usual. However, there was something clearly different about the sword than before.

‘No. It’s not different.’

Although he still does not understand exactly what the premonition is, it is clear that its power already resides within him.

Slurp.

Yun Jong put the sword back into its scabbard. Now was not the time to organize complicated thoughts.

“Are you okay?”

“Uh… … . Ah! Yes!”

Those who had been watching the battle with their injuries nodded vigorously to Yoon Jong’s words.

“Is your master okay?”

“It’s a bit too ugly to be considered okay… … but I don’t think it’ll be a big problem.”

The heads of the Cheonwoo Alliance members slowly nod.

“I should take care of your injuries, but unfortunately I don’t have the time to do that right now. I know it’s hard, but there don’t seem to be any enemies here, so climb the mountain and join the support team.”

“Yes. The seal… …. Ah, no, Your Majesty! Then Your Majesty?”

“We need to apply elsewhere.”

Yun Jong grabbed the sword lightly.

It’s not like anything has changed much just because I can use the preemptive strike. I can’t use it freely yet.

Yet, strangely, I felt a bit more confident. Maybe it was because I realized that there was already something special inside him.

“then.”

“Be careful.”

“thank you.”

Yun Jong politely threw the lottery ticket and flew away. As his figure quickly disappeared, sighs escaped from the mouths of those who remained.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes, brother. More than that… … .”

The man who had been sitting down smiled bitterly as he pressed the long wound on his shoulder with his hand.

‘We were busy running away even though we had close to ten people.’

That person suddenly ran in alone and defeated everyone. Rather, it was someone who looked younger.

“Hwasan Ogeom. Yun Jong-i… … .”

It is impossible not to know. He is the vice-chairman of one of the five factions within the Cheonwoo Alliance. If the Cheonwoo Alliance does not know him, they will consider him a traitor to the Sa-pae-ryeon and have to behead him.

However, the Yunjong that he knew and the world talked about was someone who didn’t really stand out in terms of academics among the Five Swords. He was just someone who was buried in the Five Swords’ reputation through his distribution and knowledge.

‘That person?’

A hollow laugh flows. It’s not that that person is buried in the five swords, but rather that the people around him are buried in the five swords, so that kind of person doesn’t really get much attention.

“I think I have come to a painful realization of how unreliable the rumors of the world are.”

“… … I know what you mean.”

The Cheonwoomaengdo members sighed and got up with difficulty. In case the enemy comes again, they should first join up with those who are coming to support them as Yunjong said.

“Let’s go up.”

“yes.”

The person who had been stepping away turned his head and glanced at the place where Yunjong had moved away.

‘But what could that be?’

The last sword he showed me. There was definitely a strange energy in that sword. Something warm, yet clear, and… … auspicious.

“What are you doing?”

“I’m going.”

Those who had recovered from their injuries mustered up their strength and began to climb the mountain.

* * *

“Fuck! Damn it!”

“upright.”

“Ahhh! It’s not as easy as it sounds!”

Jogeol let out a loud noise and swung his sword fiercely.

Subjugation is not about blocking enemy attacks, but rather making it impossible for the enemy to attack. However, these guys are not afraid of having their limbs cut off, or even having a sword stuck in their heart.

It wasn’t as easy as it sounds to subdue those guys and keep them from moving. With Jo-geol’s current abilities, he was barely able to attempt it.

Still, the reason why we can deal with them is.

Crunch!

“good job.”

“What did I do?”

No matter how much Jogeol holds the enemy in place, it must be because of Yui Seol’s skill that allows her to accurately cut off the enemy’s head at any time and in any position.

“damage.”

“Shit!”

Jo-geol, who sensed that it was already too late, rolled over to the floor. Several deformities were stuck in the place where he pulled out.

‘Those damn guys!’

If there was only one enemy, it would be easy to deal with them, but there were a lot of them moving in groups that could not be stopped except by cutting off their heads in one fell swoop.

Jo-geol’s back was already soaked with sweat. It was a small-scale skirmish, so he could deal with it somehow, but if these guys were sent into a real battlefield, the thought of what the outcome would be was terrifying.

“I’m out of breath.”

“I know. Damn it!”

Even as he said that, Jo-geol desperately tried to catch his breath. Compared to Yu-i-seol, who wasn’t even breathing hard, he was now overly agitated.

“… … How dare these guys!”

A bright red light shoots out from the eyes of the Blood Cultists. It seems that the decapitated corpses of their dead comrades have stimulated their ferocity.

‘I don’t have any special skills.’

No, swordsmanship and sorcery cannot be said to be all that is required for their skills. If we were to classify those strange bodies as a kind of ‘qigong’, then their skills would have to be considered quite impressive.

“I will tear you limb from limb and kill you!”

They approached them, growling like animals. On the outside, they looked like they had lost their minds, but there was clearly caution in the steps they took toward them.

It seemed like he was planning to rush in all at once, as he would get his neck cut if he rushed in clumsily.

‘I don’t like it.’

Jo-geol’s eyes narrowed.

Those deformed swords can tear human flesh just by brushing past them. However, they could only swing their swords and cut off the enemy’s neck with one blow. If the enemy attacked at once, there would be some who could not handle it, and then those deformed swords would tear their bodies apart.

‘If only there had been one or two more people… … It was a mistake that two people came.’

If it was a mistake to fail to accurately assess the enemy’s capabilities and numbers in a fit of haste, then it was a mistake. However, now was not the time to discuss such things.

“Is it okay?”

“If you do it, it will happen. If you can do it, it will happen.”

“… … I thought I was the most comfortable person on the volcano.”

These days, I feel like his strengths are being stolen by others.

“Coming.”

“Damn it!”

He infused his sword with a lot of energy. Strong swords are not his specialty, but this was the only way to cut off that tough neck in one go. His sword was not as graceful as Yui Seol’s.

“Come and see! I’ll cut off all your heads!”

The moment when Jo-Geol kicks the ground and tries to run towards the enemies.

Paaaaah!

“uh?”

“hmm?”

A myriad of plum blossom petals swirled over their heads.

“Th-the death penalty! It’s no use! That won’t work… … .”

Jo-geol, who had discovered Yun-jong rushing in front of them, shouted urgently. Hadn’t we already confirmed countless times that this kind of black magic wouldn’t work on them?

But then.

“Kuaaaah!”

“What, what is this?!”

The enemies who were trying to rush at me with all their might collapsed on the spot, clutching at my body. They let out a horrible scream that I had never heard from them before.

“… … It works?”

Jo-Geol blinked stupidly when he saw that none of those disgusting tentacles were rising from their bodies.
