Chapter 481 Descent of the Heavenly Demon (4)

It was a sight that was hard to believe even with one’s own eyes.

The eyes of the warriors, who had been gripped by fear, overwhelmed by the countless evil spirits and monsters endlessly surging forward and filling the horizon, now flickered with black light.

-Woosh!

Black sword energy bursts flowed from thousands of weapons.

Those light streams instantly covered the sky, becoming a black meteor shower stretching towards the evil spirits and monsters surging towards the Ten Thousand Great Mountains.

-Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

The meteor shower of sword energy bursts at incredible speed.

The advancing evil spirits and monsters tried to change direction when they noticed this, but they couldn’t due to their allies filling both sides and behind them.

-Roar!

-Growl!

Finally, the black light streams crossing space struck the evil spirits and monsters directly.

-Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!

With this, the sword energy bursts pierced through the front lines of evil spirits and monsters, causing green and purple blood to burst out in all directions.

Thousands of sword energy bursts split into eight branches, becoming tens of thousands.

The sword energy bursts split the evil spirits and monsters with unstoppable momentum.

Low-level fierce beasts and monsters were shattered to pieces, unable to withstand it, and even demon beast-level and higher evil spirits and monsters were pushed back, unable to withstand the tremendous momentum of the demonic energy-infused sword energy bursts.

At this amazing sight, cheers erupted.

-Waaaaaaaaah!!!!

The morale of the warriors under the former Heaven and Earth Society couldn’t help but soar at the world-changing, absolute majesty their lord displayed.

These cheers soon led to another cry.

A cry that emerged from someone’s mouth spread throughout the Ten Thousand Great Mountains.

“Descent of the Heavenly Demon! All demons bow down!”

The Heavenly Demon has descended, and all demons prostrate themselves in reverence.

-Descent of the Heavenly Demon! All demons bow down!!!!!

-Descent of the Heavenly Demon! All demons bow down!!!!!

-Descent of the Heavenly Demon! All demons bow down!!!!!

The warriors of the Righteous Alliance and Evil Alliance could only shrink back with hardened faces at this reverence for the Heavenly Demon echoing like a reverberation.

Although the Righteous Alliance revered righteousness and chivalry, at this moment, they felt a shudder towards the demonic.

“Descent of the Heavenly Demon…… All demons bow down……”

“What is happened are we doing here?”

“Amitabha Buha. The demonic that was only stirring has finally bloomed.”

Sa-tae of the Hengshan Sect spoke with a darkened face, her palms pressed together.

At her words, Master of the Diancang Sect, asked:

“What do you mean by that? Sa-tae.”

“In a world divided only into white and black, right and wrong, the pure demonic intent, the demon, has awakened.”

In Buuhism, the pure evil called ‘demon’ is something to be avoided even more than a deceitful mind.

The same is true in Taoism.

A third intent, the demonic, has been born in a world that was divided into right and wrong.

“The Way of Demons!”

The feared event had finally occurred.

-Descent of the Heavenly Demon! All demons bow down!!!!!

The reverence towards the lord of demons echoing.

It was binding together those who worshipped the demonic.

Now they could only watch helplessly as the birth of the demonic, which the righteous and evil should have joined forces to prevent unconditionally, took place.

The demonic is suppressing the inhuman beings, the demons.

At this moment when demons are trying to annihilate humans, the righteous, evil, and demonic were standing looking in the same direction.

-Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

-Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!

Wherever the black meteor shower touched, there was only destruction and death.

The eyes of Danmok In-ho, Mok Gan’s avatar and the head of the Danmok clan, watching this, grew cold.

‘…….’

How is such supreme power possible with a human body?

The spatial perception ability to handle thousands of weapons simultaneously and the matchless capability like an inexhaustible spring, no, like a great sea.

This was not a realm possible for a mere human body.

‘Could it be that he’s regained his original power?’

He is an avatar.

The King of Demons.

If he had regained his original power, all this might be possible, but looking at him with the Three Eyes, he was still human.

‘…… There’s no core.’

The absence of a core that should be present in a demonic clan.

It was decisive evidence that he hadn’t regained his former power.

-Grip!

Danmok In-ho’s clenched fist tightened.

Then does this mean he has reached the highest realm possible for a human?

The Life and Death Realm reached within the boundary of life and death is not the end.

If one can achieve harmony with the five elements of great nature, one can reach the Natural Realm, which can be said to be the end.

If that happens, one can draw energy from great nature, so there is no limit to inner energy.

‘Did he consume a spirit beast?’

But then he said to another avatar:

[You take that kind of thing.]

[What?]

[That’s not what’s important.]

He is utterly arrogant.

Perhaps because he was the King of Demons, but he tries to break all existing things.

Such a person wouldn’t go back on his word.

Having thought only of him for over a hundred years and being destined enemies, he could understand this.

Then does this matchless capability possess a power close to infinite that even rivals the energy of great nature?

-Tremble!

“Kuk…… Kukuk. Kuhahahahahaha!”

Eventually, Danmok In-ho burst into mad laughter.

It truly inspires awe.

You are undoubtedly a worthy arch-enemy to devote one’s life to killing.

Yes. If it were a fight that could be ended easily, it wouldn’t be fun.

“This is just the beginning. And even your tremendous ultimate technique is not without weakness.”

-Crack!

At that moment, an anomaly occurred in the weapons emitting the sword energy bursts of the black meteor shower.

The blades of the weapons began to break.

-Hiss!

The fragments of the broken blades couldn’t withstand the demonic energy and oxidized on the spot.

The corner of Danmok In-ho’s mouth curled up sinisterly.

As expected.

Ordinary weapons cannot fully withstand his power.

It would have been strange for ordinary weapons to withstand that sword energy burst that could crush and penetrate even evil spirits and monsters.

-Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack!

Eventually, the weapons that couldn’t withstand the demonic energy broke rapidly.

In an instant, nearly half were broken, and the other weapons were cracking and splitting, looking like they would all break soon.

Yes. That’s the limit of that ultimate technique.

And now is the chance.

-Poof!

Danmok In-ho flew his form towards Mok Gyeong-un.

Concentrating all his power on thousands of swords, he can’t turn his attention elsewhere right now.

The Righteous Alliance and Evil Alliance might not aim for his back, but I’m different.

I am an enemy trying to annihilate humanity.

I desperately wish for your death.

‘Though inferior to other bodies, this is enough for you now.’

-Woong!

Danmok In-ho extremely compressed his sword energy and concentrated it on his sword.

‘Heaven’s Sword Technique: Heaven-Defeating Sword!’

-Swoosh!

His form rushing towards Mok Gyeong-un became one with the sword, and its tyrannical momentum seemed like it would cut through everything in existence.

This was an ultimate technique created based on his method of concentrating all his power into a single point.

It was only possible once with this body, but that didn’t matter.

With just this one chance, he could kill him……

-Clang!

-Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

‘!?’

Danmok In-ho’s three pupils shook.

Mok Gyeong-un still hadn’t even turned his head.

Yet somehow, a formless sword that appeared in mid-air created black lines, not only shattering his Heaven-Defeating Sword but also cutting off his limbs in an instant.

To have this much strength left here?

‘With avatars…… Is it impossible to do anything?’

A true monster.

A monster that can’t be dealt with unless it’s the main body.

His body, with its limbs cut off, was about to fall to the ground, spewing fresh blood.

However,

-Grip!

His body floated up due to profound inner energy.

Then his floating body was drawn towards Mok Gyeong-un.

Meanwhile, the remaining thousands of weapons unleashing the Heavenly Void Bright Light, Eight Immortals’ Sword Competition broke.

-Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack!

Mok Gyeong-un aimed his sword energy-imbued fingers at the third eye of Danmok In-ho, whose limbs had been cut off and who had flown right in front of him.

“How long do you intend to hide?”

“……”

“Main body. Show yourself now.”

At Mok Gyeong-un’s direct question, the corner of Danmok In-ho’s mouth twitched.

Seeing this, Mok Gyeong-un was about to unleash his sword energy towards Danmok In-ho’s third eye as if he had lost interest.

Then,

-Bulge!

The blood vessels in the third eye bulged, and the voice changed.

It was not Bi Yong-heon’s will.

“How much do you think I estimated the capabilities of you, the avatar, and humans in the plan I’ve been weaving for a long time?”

“What?”

“Through the Jiao-Dragon Demon King’s Human-Demon War and the first great calamity, we revised many strategies. Even the most insignificant and insect-like beings can’t have their limits carelessly judged when cornered.”

“……”

“Humanity will realize that the Human-Demon War and great calamity that occurred over hundreds of years were merely the beginning.”

-Woosh!

As soon as those words ended, the front that had been obscured by the haze from the Heavenly Void Bright Light’s aftermath gradually revealed itself.

The corpses of numerous evil spirits and monsters were strewn about miserably.

It seemed to be nearly tens of thousands.

At this sight, the faces of the former Heaven and Earth Society warriors under Mok Gyeong-un, as well as the Righteous Alliance and Evil Alliance warriors, were about to brighten, but it didn’t last long.

-Rumble!

Once again, the Ten Thousand Great Mountains began to shake with vibrations.

Shadows filling the horizon began to appear as the hazy smoke cleared.

The faces of the warriors looking at this hardened.

“This can’t be……”

“How…… How many are there?”

Countless evil spirits and monsters, too many to count, were approaching, trampling on the corpses of the dead monsters as they surged forward from beyond the horizon.

Mok Gyeong-un’s eyes narrowed as he looked at this.

Suddenly, Mok Gyeong-un recalled the map of the Central Plains that Jin Ye-rin had drawn on the ground.

A massive formation encompassing the entire Central Plains.

‘…… Are all the evil spirits and monsters in the Central Plains gathering here?’

During the first great calamity, evil spirits and monsters throughout the Central Plains went berserk and tried to harm humans.

And in the second great calamity, the evil spirits and monsters were controlled by him.

Not just going berserk, but with a clear purpose.

It might be difficult for ordinary humans, but martial artists who have cultivated martial arts have the power to confront evil spirits and monsters.

They were trying to slaughter all the martial artists gathered in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains.

‘I need to kill the main body.’

It’s certainly him controlling this technique.

If he’s not killed, there would be no choice but to continue an endless battle with the evil spirits and monsters.

-Swish!

Mok Gyeong-un reached out towards his third eye.

Now that most of the avatars have been destroyed, if he could trace the will, he should be able to find the location of the main body.

Just as his hand was about to touch,

-Flinch!

Suddenly, Mok Gyeong-un’s hand stopped.

-Whoosh!

Simultaneously, a tremendous wind pressure spread throughout the Ten Thousand Great Mountains as if a storm had hit.

The wind was so strong it was difficult to maintain balance.

“Ugh.”

“Wh-what kind of wind is this!”

The sudden gust of wind was not a simple natural phenomenon.

At some point, they could tell.

A huge shadow was being cast over the front of the Ten Thousand Great Mountains.

And as the shadow gradually shrank, the incoming wind became as cold as if accompanied by a north wind, even causing frost to form all around.

-Crack, crack, crack, crack!

The cold wind pressing down on everything eventually brought despair.

-Flap! Flap! Flap!

-Whoosh!

A huge, pure white being accompanied by a storm that seemed capable of freezing everything with a single wing beat.

It was a Great Peng larger than one of the peaks of the Ten Thousand Great Mountains.
