KWAGAGAGAK!!!Two martial artists collide as they cut across the forest.
BANG!!
With each impact, shocks burst in all directions. Absolute masters.
A clash between those who have reached the extremes as martial artiststhey are enough to devastate their surroundings.
"Hmph!"
The Small Moon Division Leader gripped his sword tighter and swung.
Tracing a half-moon, a crescent moon formed in the air. The moonlight that cleaved through the night raced toward his opponent, but
SHIRIRIK!!
A supple sword path swept the moonlight away. Flower petals spread out, enveloping the crescent moon.
PAK!
The energy exploded, and the brilliance scattered everywhere.
Distance opened up between them for a moment.
The Small Moon Division Leader checked his opponent with a chilling gaze.
WHOOSH!
The Plum Blossom Division Leader also shook his sword, brushing away the lingering energies.
Seeing this, the Small Moon Division Leader asked,
"...... Why are you doing this?"
His tone showed incomprehension. Hearing this, the Plum Blossom Division Leader simply stared back at the Small Moon Division Leader with an expressionless gaze.
"Plum Blossom Division Leader. You shouldn't be doing this."
They were those who drew the lines of the Righteous Faction.
The Heaven Beyond Heaven, who saved countless lives in the war.
The Sect Leader of Mount Hua; the Plum Blossom First Sword is a martial artist admired by many.
And
The Plum Blossom Division Leader standing before him was no different.
While he did not stand out in the war, the Mount Hua Sect contributed greatly in the battle against the Demonic Cult.
The Plum Blossom Division Leader also slaughtered countless demonic fiends and greatly aided the Righteous victorya hero, nonetheless.
"Why have you joined hands with those filthy ones?"
He had betrayed them. The Small Moon Division Leader could not believe it.
'Keep an eye on the Plum Blossom Division Leader. He's a spy.'
Even when Bang Sung-Yun had said this, it sounded ridiculous to the Small Moon Division Leader. He had simply dismissed it.
'...... Is it really true?'
He truly betrayed us. Sweat of fear trickled down the Small Moon Division Leader in the current situation.
"...... Plum Blossom Division Leader. How could you..."
"The heavens are lofty."
"...... Hmm?"
The Plum Blossom Division Leader opened his mouth.
"The high heavens are boundless and wide. Did you know?"
"...... What are you talking about?"
"As vast and wide as the sky is, there's somehow only one sun. Do you understand what that means?"
"......"
In the vast sky, there is only one sun.
That's natural. There was only ever one sun.
But, what's the problem with that?
"Small Moon Division Leader."
The Plum Blossom Division Leader called him.
"What do you think of the current Blue Moon Sect Leader?"
"...... What?"
At the mention of the Virtuous Moon Sword, the Small Moon Division Leader's brow furrowed.
"Have you ever coveted that position?"
"......"
CRAAACK. Intense killing intent began to spill from the Small Moon Division Leader's body.
"Mind your words."
Rage colored his voice. How dare he say such things now?
A potent force burst out, but the Plum Blossom Division Leader's expression was unchanged.
"The world only remembers one sun. It sees nothing else. How unreasonable is that?"
SSSSSS! A surge of intent also radiated from the Plum Blossom Division Leader.
"A shining sunnothing can replace it. So, even if one wants to be the sun, all one can do is wait...."
Metallic shingthe sword was wrapped in purple-red sword aura.
"If the sun doesn't intend to set first, then shouldn't we hasten that time? That's all I've ever wanted."
"......"
Hearing these words, the Small Moon Division Leader stared at the Plum Blossom Division Leader. Then
He snickered.
"Why are you laughing?"
"You ask why I laugh?"
The Small Moon Division Leader replied, the corners of his mouth lifting.
"Because it's an utterly petty thing to say."
"What?"
"I meanno matter how elegantly you wrap it up, in the end"
KWAGAGAGAK!!
The Small Moon Division Leader unleashed sword aura. It was blue, resembling the moon.
The Blue Moon's energya ki unique to the Blue Moon Sect.
Although somewhat different from the Radiant Moon Annihilationcreated by Yu Chun-gil and cultivated by Bang Sung-Yunit was still a secret art of the Blue Moon Sect.
Embodying that force, the Small Moon Division Leader's eyes sparkled as he spoke.
"You betrayed us because you coveted the position of Sect Leader."
"......"
"That's all there is to it."
He felt relieved. All his doubts were swept away.
"You're the sort worth killing."
SWISH!!!
The moon reached out to invade the flowers.
The Small Moon Division Leader disliked complicated things.
He simply rendered a straightforward answer.
And
Such answers were mostly correct.
***
CLANG! CLANG CLANG!
Kgh!
Senior Brother.... Please!
The scent of blood and iron began to permeate the cave's interior.
The surging ki of the martial artists heated the air to a near-boiling point.
As the temperature rose, someone dropped a bead of sweat.
Drip.
Sweat fell from the tip of a chin. The one sweatingwas Hwang Sogong.
Drip.
The drop of sweat rolled off his chin and hit the ground.
And just like that, Hwang Sogong pulled himself together.
'What is this?'
What did I just do?
No way.
'Was I... scared?'
Could it be that he had been overwhelmed by fear?
Hwang Sogong relaxed his stiff body, grimacing.
Even if he tried to deny it, the cold sweat revealed the truth of the situation.
"...... You."
Hwang Sogong glared ahead.
There stood Moon HeroBang Sung-Yun, rising slowly to his feet.
"What are you?"
Hwang Sogong demanded in a sharp, hostile voice.
"......"
At that, Bang Sung-Yun gazed at him with a gentle look in his eyes.
A shiver ran down his spine.
"......!"
When their eyes met, a chill swept Hwang Sogong's back.
It was certain.
"How do you ave eyes like that...?"
Icy red demon eyes.
The origin of what is recorded in the Demonic Celestial Cult for ages
The one who possesses the red demon eyes shall become the heaven of the Demonic Cult.
The leader of the Demonic Cult.
The most critical requirement to become the Heavenly Demon was precisely those red eyes.
And, from generation to generation, every Heavenly Demon of the Demonic Cult had those burning crimson eyes.
Moreover, the red eyes were referred to as
'The sign of the Heaven-Slaying Star.'
A fate born solely to kill.
It was also the hallmark of those Heaven-Slaying Stars.
"...... You. Are you a Heaven-Slaying Star...?"
Could the Sword Saint's successor really be a Heaven-Slaying Star?
That was unthinkable. Even seeing it with his own eyes, Hwang Sogong could hardly believe it.
Even so, even if he really was a Heaven-Slaying Star, there was a further problem.
'Then, what's with that demonic energy?'
The black aura emanating from Bang Sung-Yun at this very moment.
That was unmistakably demonic ki.
'...... How does he possess demonic ki?'
Demonic ki is different from ordinary internal energy.
Only demonic practitionersmoreover, only those permitted by the Heavenly Demoncan access this supreme, sacred force.
And yet
"How do you have it?"
How could Bang Sung-Yun possess it?
Hwang Sogong asked, but Bang Sung-Yun did not answer.
CRACK.
Instead, he simply limbered his body, stretching this way and that.
"You! Answer me right n!"
"Shh."
"......!"
Bang Sung-Yun placed an index finger over his lips and whispered. Strangely, Hwang Sogong's mouth shut completely at the gesture.
"Don't bark so carelessly. It's irritating to my ears."
"......"
Soft and emotionless.
It was a cautioned tone, spoken just so.
CRUNCH.
He clenched and unclenched his fist. Only then did Bang Sung-Yun nod, as if confirming something.
"Heaven-Slaying Star...."
He gave a faint smile.
That smile seemed horrifyingly eerie.
"It's really a pathetic excuse, isn't it?"
"...... What...."
"I mean, those are words and excuses for worms who can't even control their own fates."
Bang Sung-Yun looked somewhere.
There stood Sword Phoenix, frozen just like himself.
"Such things don't apply to me. I left that behind a long time ago."
"... You said, 'I'?"
Hearing the term, Hwang Sogong's brow twisted ferociously.
"You? What arrogance."
THUD.
Hwang Sogong gripped his treasured sword, his muscles swelling.
"......!"
Yu Yun's eyes widened at the sight.
It was dangerous. She could tell at a glance.
Hwang Sogong was roaring out with all his mighthis aura was incomparably greater than when he faced her.
Bang Sung-Yun was in danger. Whatever was going on, Yu Yun once again tried to step between them.
SCRAPE.
"......"
Her body became petrified, pinned by an unidentifiable energy.
"That's right."
Bang Sung-Yun spoke to Yu Yun as he looked at her.
"Stay like that for a moment. I dislike being interrupted."
STEP.
Bang Sung-Yun began to walk.
SLIDE.
At the same time, he drew his sword. The blade, dark as ink, was calm in his hand.
"Hm."
Bang Sung-Yun's eyes curved into a crescent as he gripped the sword.
"The Poison Sovereign. That fool made something useful after all."
His tone was satisfied.
He seemed extremely relaxed. This display stoked Hwang Sogong's wrath.
"How dare you act so nonchalant in front of me?"
Both those red eyes and the demonic ki he radiated
Everything was strange, but only one thing mattered.
'I must kill him.'
That man needed to die.
He was nothing like when he faced Sword Phoenix.
'If I don't dispose of him'
It would surely become a problem for the Young cult leader in the future. No room for complacencyeven though he was just one of the rising stars.
Resolve.
By any means, he vowed to kill that man here and now.
"Hruuh!"
Hwang Sogong charged. The distance closed in an instant; he reached Bang Sung-Yun.
WHOOOOSH!!!
Winds roared. From his body, a storm of energy erupted forth.
Great Heaven Martial Mountain Sword .
Great Dragon Union .
The energy imbued in Hwang Sogong's sword transformed.
It was rough and savage, like a dragon baring its fangs.
An ultimate arta secret technique.
The attack, carrying his full intensity, shot at Bang Sung-Yun
SHLUK
"...... Huh?"
What was that sound just now?
He heard something being sliced. Hwang Sogong's eyes trembled.
The sound clearly came from his right arm. He looked down with shaking eyes to confirm it.
THUD
Something hit the ground.
An arm.
His own arm rolled across the floor.
"......!!!"
KYYAAAAAA!!!
Hwang Sogong clutched his severed stump, howling in pain.
When?
When was it severed?
"You... how did you...!!"
How had he cut him? Eyes twisted in pain, Hwang Sogong stared at Bang Sung-Yun.
At that moment
"Shh..."
"Hrk...!!"
His throat clamped tight and his mouth shut instantly.
"Do not raise your voice."
Bang Sung-Yun met Hwang Sogong's gaze.
"I told you beforedo not bark in front of me."
"...... Y... you..."
While Hwang Sogong's face turned blue, Bang Sung-Yun reached out his hand.
His index finger.
The slender, delicate fingertip touched Hwang Sogong's chest.
"I am not one to forgive a dog for barking at its master."
SSSSSS!!!
"......!"
Hwang Sogong sensed it. Something was happening at the tip of that finger.
"But I see that your head will be of use to me in the future, so I will show you mercy."
At his fingertip, darkness spread.
"You who could not become the nightwatch closely."
FWOOOSH!!
A surge of black energy burst from Bang Sung-Yun's body.
A shape formed behind his back, causing Hwang Sogong to tremble.
"This is true night."
THUD.
"Ugh...!"
The energy from Bang Sung-Yun's fingertip flooded Hwang Sogong&039;s body.
In an instant, the whites of his eyes turned pitch-black.
BOOM!!
Hwang Sogong's massive form crashed to the ground.
"......"
Yu Yun watched, eyes trembling.
When Bang Sung-Yun glanced at her
SLIDE!!
Yu Yun reflexively pointed her sword at him.
She watched Bang Sung-Yun warily, and at her posture, Bang Sung-Yun smiled.
"Your instincts are good."
"......"
"But now is not the time."
Seeing the collapsed Hwang Sogong, Bang Sung-Yun stood up.
The battle was still ongoing elsewhere. Amid that, he looked somewhere.
A blank wall was all that could be seen. Staring at that spot, Bang Sung-Yun spoke.
"Come out."
Who was he addressing? Yu Yun was perplexed.
FWOOSH.
The wall warped and, to her shock, someone burst out from within.
"...... Ah... aaah... aaaah...."
With teary eyes filled with emotion, the young man shed streams of tears.
Flushed cheeks, eyes full of reverencethe tears flowed endlessly.
He radiated a touch of madness.
THUD.
The youth dropped to his knees.
"...... My heaven.... I greet my new heaven...."
He was the Ghost Demon.
