Myst, Might, Mayhem

Chapter 487 – The Supreme Sword (1) Jjeojeojeojeojeojeojeojeok!

As the dark clouds split and a dazzling light illuminated the earth, everyone’s gaze turned towards it in an instant.

It was as if the Heavenly Emperor himself was descending.

A being with curly golden hair, flapping magnificent and brilliantly golden wings, slowly descended from the sky.

“Ah!

” Exclamations flowed from the mouths of those watching this being.

Just looking at it, the golden-haired being was incredibly beautiful, sacred, and overflowing with majesty.

Even more shocking was not just this appearance.

Martial artists with even slightly sensitive energy perception were unable to hide their shock.

“What kind of energy is……” “This is…….

” When the Six Demons appeared, it was despair itself due to the demonic energy encompassing everything.

But the energy of this sacred-looking being truly covered the sky.

It was hard to believe, but it really looked like a divine being.

Kwakwakwakwakwakwang!

Its presence was so intense that even the Hundred-Faced King Golden Nine-Tailed Fox, who was engaged in a fierce battle with the Great Strength King Ox Demon King, glanced sideways for a moment.

‘…….

What on earth is that?

’ The Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s eyes sharpened.

She hadn’t been nervous at all while fighting the Great Strength King, who was called the strongest among the Six Demons and known to be unrivaled in strength.

But when that being appeared, her heart beat strongly.

How could such a thing appear in the world?

“Elder…….

that is…….

” It wasn’t just the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox who felt this.

Jin Ye-rin, who was fighting against the Lion-Grasping King, couldn’t help but have her attention divided by the strange energy encompassing everything, tightening around her heart.

It was the same for Sima Chak, the Moon Evil Sword.

‘Dangerous.

’ Sima Chak was more experienced than anyone else here.

He had gone through the Human-Demon War of the Dragon Demon King that threatened the safety of the Central Plains martial arts world hundreds of years ago, and even the great calamity that divided the Old Murim and the current martial arts world.

Yet even he couldn’t help but be extremely tense when that being appeared.

Shuuuuuuu!

“Yoo Moo-jin.

” “I know.

I’m watching too.

” Yoo Moo-jin, leading the Yoo clan, also couldn’t easily take his eyes off that being that appeared between the split dark clouds.

Kugugugugugugu!

Since that being appeared, all the energies in the area were unable to circulate properly, and even the energies were gathering and swirling around those golden wings.

Unlike the incredibly sacred spectacle, the concentration of energy that seemed like it could blow away the entire Ten Thousand Great Mountains area at any moment was ominously unparalleled.

The spark of hope they had just kindled was becoming precarious again.

Kkwak!

‘So you finally show yourself.

Golden Heavenly King.

’ Mok Gan bit his lower lip hard.

He might be the only one who knew that being accurately.

The Heavenly clan opposing the Demon clan.

And that being emitting such an overwhelming pressure is the leader of the Heavenly clan, called the Golden Heavenly King.

‘Why now of all times!

’ He thought it would never show itself until his given role was fulfilled.

It considers humans as insignificant as insects.

Yet for this arrogant being, who considers itself the master of all creation, to show itself like this – is it because of him after all?

Mok Gan’s three eyes turned towards Mok Gyeong-un.

His incarnation’s gaze was also directed towards the Golden Heavenly King.

He doesn’t look at himself.

At this sight, the words the Golden Heavenly King had said echoed repeatedly in Mok Gan’s mind.

[Your role ends here.

] Kkadeuk!

Kkadeuk!

The blood vessels in the third eye on Mok Gan’s forehead intertwined and swelled up.

Indeed, to it, he was just a chess piece.

That’s how he was born in the first place.

The Eye of the Heavenly King.

That was the entire reason for his existence.

To exist for it and to observe everything on its behalf.

Therefore, he should have accepted that his role was over, but, Ukssin!

At that moment, a voice echoed in Mok Gan’s mind.

‘In the end, we weren’t the main characters.

’ Pareureureureu!

The light in the eye on Mok Gan’s forehead wavered with the suppressed will.

The ‘Eye’ feeds on madness and desire.

‘I… I……’ Mok Gan, who had absorbed the madness and desires of thousands, tens of thousands of people for his given role, gradually developed his own will and sense of self.

And that vast desire aroused in him a longing to break free from his predetermined role.

The desire to become the subject, no longer a puppet.

This didn’t take long.

He found the desire and madness that could cut the puppet strings.

That was Bi Yong-heon.

True madness beyond the role allowed Mok Gan to break free from the shackles of the role he had so longed for.

Ssiiik!

The corners of Mok Gan’s mouth split into an eerie grin that reached his ears.

“That’s right, partner.

We can’t be dragged around by something called a role forever.

We should be the main characters of everything.

” Seuk!

Mok Gan raised the red jade staff.

At that moment, the red jade began to emit a red light and started resonating.

Uuuuuuung!

Meanwhile, the Golden Heavenly King slowly descending from the sky looked at the Hundred-Faced King Golden Nine-Tailed Fox and the Great Strength King Ox Demon King, who were engaged in a fierce battle that was changing the surrounding landscape.

Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwang!

After observing them closely, the corners of the Golden Heavenly King’s mouth twitched.

-Useful.

With those words, the Golden Heavenly King stretched out its hand, pointing at the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox.

At that moment, Uuuuuuuuuuung!

Bright light concentrated around where the Golden Heavenly King’s hand was pointing, and in an instant, it became a pure white beam.

Chwak!

The beam was truly a stream of light itself.

In the blink of an eye, the beam extended and pierced through the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s back.

Kwajik!

Keok!

The huge body of the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox, hit in the back by the beam, staggered forward.

Being so enormous, even its staggering shook the ground.

Kukukukung!

Kureureureureu!

Kkwaaaaak!

At that precise moment, the Great Strength King Ox Demon King didn’t miss the chance and roughly grabbed the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s neck with both hands, slamming it down towards the ground.

Kwaaaaaaaaang!

That wasn’t the end.

The Great Strength King Ox Demon King opened its mouth and breathed lava-like flames towards the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox slammed to the ground.

Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwaka!

As the dark red lava fell on the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s face, Chiiiiiiiiiik!

Hwareureureureuruk!

Smoke rose with the flames.

The Golden Nine-Tailed Fox tried to twist its body as if in pain, but the Great Strength King’s strength was by far the best among the Six Demons, so instead, its pressed body dug into the ground.

Kwadeudeudeudeudeuk!

The earth shook and the ground split as the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s body sank deeper into the ground.

As if trying to finish it off, the Great Strength King’s hands also turned into lava and started burning the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s neck that it was gripping.

Then, Pakwakwakwakwakwaka!

The Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s nine tails, which had dug into the ground, broke through the floor and wrapped around the Great Strength King’s arms and torso.

In that state, extreme cold arose from the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s tails.

Jjeojeojeojeojeojeok!

She was trying to push back the Great Strength King with an opposing force.

However, the Great Strength King, seemingly prepared for some sacrifice, didn’t let go of its lava-transformed hands even as its shoulders and body were freezing.

As a result, heat and cold collided, turning the surroundings into a haze of yellow steam.

Pushushushushuk!

Seeing huge thorns shooting up from within, it seemed the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox was trying to push away the Great Strength King somehow, but it didn’t look easy.

‘Damn ox!

How can you have this much strength after being sealed for so long……’ The Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s golden eyes gradually lost their light.

Although she was preventing her face from melting in the heat with demonic energy, her breath was being choked off by the physical force on her neck, causing her to gradually lose consciousness.

If there hadn’t been any interference in the middle, this wouldn’t have happened.

It was absurd.

What on earth was that being?

It had too easily pierced through her fur imbued with demonic energy, which even the Great Strength King couldn’t properly penetrate with its power.

Seuseuseuseuseuseu!

It’s hard to endure any longer.

If she loses consciousness like this, her head will be torn off and melted by the Great Strength King.

Dying wasn’t so frightening.

It’s just that the prophecy hadn’t been properly fulfilled, and yet like this…… Pupupuk!

It was at that very moment.

Three enormous, utterly transparent formless swords pierced into the Great Strength King’s torso where her tails were binding it.

Normally it would have been difficult to penetrate, but it seems it was possible because those areas had frozen.

At that instant, the Great Strength King’s lava-dyed grip loosened.

‘Heavenly Demon!

’ This strength was undoubtedly him.

The Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s closing eyes suddenly opened wide, emitting a golden light.

Her remaining tails transformed into sharp spears and dug into the Great Strength King’s torso where the formless swords had pierced.

Pupupupupuk!

Kweoeoeoeoeoeoeo!

The Great Strength King roared in pain and staggered backward.

Not missing this moment, the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox raised her body and lunged at the Great Strength King, trying to bite its neck, but, ‘My body……’ Her body wouldn’t listen, having been continuously strangled along with the lava’s heat.

As she was about to miss this golden opportunity, Kweoeoeoeoeoeo!

The Great Strength King Ox Demon King was seen clutching its forehead and appearing to be in agony.

While wondering why it was acting like that, a red light rose from the Great Strength King’s forehead area and it was gradually splitting.

Jjeojeojeojeojeojeok!

Eventually, blood vessels intertwined in the splitting area, gradually forming a spherical shape.

The Golden Heavenly King watching from the sky showed a change in its gaze.

The sphere gradually intensified in form, and soon it became an eye.

As the eye moved, the Great Strength King brought its hand to its forehead, trying to forcibly tear it off, but, Kwadeuk!

Kwadeuk!

The Great Strength King’s forehead area bulged out, and the hand it had brought there stopped moving completely.

Then finally, the Great Strength King stopped its trembling vibrations and lowered its hand.

The third eye emitting a red light filled with madness gradually began to fill with ecstasy.

Then, Kuhahahahahahahahaha!

Instead of a roar, maniacal laughter burst from the Great Strength King’s mouth.

‘Success.

’ A new will had entered the Great Strength King’s mind.

It was the third Mok Gan.

After obtaining the forbidden technique to freely handle souls, he had devised all sorts of means and methods to transfer himself to this being weakened by long sealing.

And it had finally come to fruition.

He had never infiltrated an evil spirit, which could be called a concentration of yin energy beyond humans or beasts, but he had accomplished it.

He had become one with the Great Strength King Ox Demon King, which could be called the strongest evil spirit.

‘No longer a puppet.

’ He had expected it to some extent, but it was enough to make him tremble.

If this overflowing demonic energy and his own power became one, no one could be his match anymore.

Even if it were the Demon King or the Golden Heavenly King.

Kuhahahahahahahahahahaha!

Mok Gan, who had become one with the Great Strength King and was bursting into maniacal laughter, then sought out the incarnation.

I’ll show you the sight of this lord easily annihilating that being you’ve been searching for so long.

And that this lord is no longer a being bound to you…… Heumchit!

At that moment, the eye on the Great Strength King’s forehead trembled.

What is this?

The surrounding energy is stirring.

He thought perhaps the Golden Heavenly King had judged him as a threatening existence and was about to act, but that wasn’t it.

The source of that energy was none other than the incarnation, Mok Gyeong-un.

‘How is this guy’s energy……’ Supreme power was surging from the guy he thought would be severely depleted of energy after raising the Myriad Sword River just moments ago.

Gooooooooooo!

That power was so strong that it was enough to make the surrounding energy fluctuate.

At that moment, Mok Gyeong-un opened his mouth.

“Now that everyone has shown themselves, I guess I can do it properly.

”
