Myst, Might, Mayhem
Chapter Summary
As it was a situation where he could even die if he stayed like this, Mok Gan, who had become one with the Great Strength King, forcibly endured the pain of his pierced chest and tried to turn his body to attack the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox. As his horn, which could be called the center of demonic energy, was cut off, Mok Gan, who had become one with the Great Strength King, unable to bear the pain, let out a roar. The pain soon turned into anger, and Mok Gan, who had become one with the Great Str...
Chapter 490 – The Supreme Sword (4) An immense roar erupted from Lion-Grasping King‘s throat.
“Aagh!
” “Kugh!
” The roar, filled with Lion-Grasping King’s demonic energy, instantly ruptured Jin Ye-rin and Sima Chak’s eardrums, the shock reaching their brains.
As a result, their bodies became paralyzed.
Already dazed from blood loss, Jin Ye-rin couldn’t regain her senses.
Not missing this moment, Lion-Grasping King tried to forcibly close his mouth, enduring the pain of the formless sword piercing through his palate and jaw.
‘No.
’ Her body wouldn’t listen.
Was she going to face death without being able to do anything?
It felt too empty to go like this after meeting the only blood relative in the world.
In that instant, countless memories flashed through her mind like a kaleidoscope.
-If I just keep watching, I feel like I’ll hear Young‘s resentment.
A voice echoed in her head.
The owner of that voice was her ancestor, Jin Woon-hwi.
‘!?
’ -Relax your body and mind, and accept it.
‘Ancestor…’ -Goodbye.
I’m saying farewell in advance.
Live for your own happiness, not for revenge or the revival of the clan.
Jin Ye-rin’s eyes reddened at Jin Woon-hwi’s warm farewell.
However, it didn’t last long.
-Pop!
The Heavenly Concealed Secret suddenly jumped out from her bosom.
The secret, which had been operating the Heavenly Concealed technique across time and space on her behalf, ignited.
-Whoosh!
Eventually, Jin Ye-rin’s hazy eyes gleamed with golden and blood-red light as someone entered her consciousness.
-Seventh Star of the Seven Stars Mystic Script, Vibrating Light, shine forth.
-Goooooo!
A blue light in the shape of the Big Dipper flickered on the back of Jin Ye-rin’s hand, temporarily connecting her spirit, energy, and mind.
-Woooong!
Along with this, a resonating sound flowed out, and the ground stained with the blood of fallen warriors began to ripple with blue light.
The blue light soon formed human shapes.
The warriors of the Evil Alliance didn’t know how to react, their eyes reddening at the sight.
They were overwhelmed with emotion seeing the forms of their fallen comrades.
-Swish swish swish swish!
The swords that had lost their masters rose simultaneously with the will of the warriors that remained there.
The ground, sparkling with blue lights and the silver glow of swords, was as brilliant as the Milky Way.
As Jin Ye-rin stretched her hand towards Lion-Grasping King, -Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Numerous swords enveloped in blue light flew in and burrowed into Lion-Grasping King’s mouth.
-Kwaaaaaargh!
With the sudden intrusion of swords, Lion-Grasping King let out a beastly roar and began to be pushed back.
‘What?
’ Sima Chak of the Moon Evil Sword’s eyes widened.
Wondering what was happening, he saw thousands of will-bodies made of blue light, holding swords and rushing towards Lion-Grasping King.
It was a sight like a blue meteor shower flying by.
-Bam bam bam bam bam bam bam bam!
Could this be…?
Sima Chak’s gaze turned to Jin Ye-rin.
Golden and blood-red light streamed from Jin Ye-rin’s hazy eyes, and the form of Jin Woon-hwi overlapped with hers.
‘You!
’ To Sima Chak, who recognized him at once, Jin Ye-rin, no, Jin Woon-hwi spoke.
-Ying asked me to send her regards to her father-in-law.
‘………’ At those words, Sima Chak’s eyes quickly became misty.
Jin Woon-hwi smiled at him and then leapt upwards, kicking off the air.
-Pat!
The will-bodies of the swords were rushing towards Lion-Grasping King like a meteor shower, and the confused beast was trying to escape to get away from them.
At this, Jin Woon-hwi raised his sword to the sky, -Rumble rumble boom boom!
Lightning struck from the sky and wrapped around the sword.
As powerful lightning energy enveloped the sword, ‘Thunder Splitting Heavenly Concealed, Divine Path Luminous Star Sword Art, True Chasing and Turning Sword!
’ -Crackle crackle crackle crackle!
From the tip of the lightning-wrapped sword, a sword energy enveloped in thunder spiraled out, becoming a huge storm of lightning stretching forward.
Its power was incomparable to when Jin Ye-rin had wielded it herself.
It was breathtaking just to look at.
-Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!
The storm of lightning striking from the sky trapped Lion-Grasping King as he tried to escape, and the meteor shower of swords rushing in pierced into him.
-Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
-Kwaaaaargh!
Lion-Grasping King’s agonized roar echoed all around.
At the sound of Lion-Grasping King’s dying roar, the red light in the third eye of Mok Gan, who had become one with the Six Demon Great Strength King Ox Demon King, flickered.
Having watched the world for a long time, he remembered seeing a sight like this before.
It was during the Human-Demon War instigated by Jiao Ma King.
To think such a situation would occur again.
-Crunch!
That’s not all.
That annoying Yoo clan is the same.
The Six Demon White Phoenix Demon King‘s body was also rapidly breaking down from simultaneous internal and external attacks.
The descendants of Mushang Fortress, the Yoo clan… what on earth are these things that come back to life and thus thwart his grand plan?
How many long years had he spent trying to control all these variables?
It had all become a mess.
‘…This can’t go on.
’ If two of the Six Demons, Lion-Grasping King and White Phoenix Demon King, were to be annihilated, the tide of battle would become unpredictable.
At this, Mok Gan, who had become one with Ox Demon King, turned his gaze towards the Golden Heavenly King.
Despite using the power of the divine artifact, not only was the battle situation not reversing, but they were being pushed back, yet he still showed no sign of wariness.
‘As expected.
’ For him, even the Six Demons, who could be called moving natural disasters themselves, and all those numerous evil spirits were merely long-term strategies.
That’s why he doesn’t even blink whether they live or die.
-Grr!
Mok Gan’s gaze alternated between the incarnation that was slaughtering the rampaging evil spirits with overwhelming majesty, and the Golden Heavenly King.
The Golden Heavenly King probably didn’t care about any other beings.
The fact that he was only interested in killing him might actually be a good thing.
‘I’ll aim for the fisherman’s gain.
’ Anyway, for him, even I was just a card that could be discarded at any time.
And since I had already shown signs of trying to break free from his control, I would be a target for disposal after his battle with the incarnation was over.
Then there was no reason to move according to his will.
‘I’ve broken free from the influence of the ring.
’ But I’ll wait, pretending I haven’t broken free from its influence.
The Golden Heavenly King was underestimating the incarnation just because he had become human.
But I have physically felt how quickly he has grown stronger.
That is a monster beyond imagination.
He will surely continue to grow even as he contends with the Golden Heavenly King.
‘But the Golden Heavenly King is a being close to a god, enough to look down even on the Six Demons.
The match between those two won’t be easily decided and could end in a draw.
’ If I aim for that moment, there’s a possibility of taking out both of them… -Stab!
-Kugh!
At that moment, something burst through the chest of Mok Gan, who had become one with the Great Strength King.
‘This, this is…’ It was the tail of the Hundred-Faced King Golden Nine-Tailed Fox, each hair transformed into a sharp blade.
The Great Strength King’s eyes wavered.
He had thought she had already reached a level beyond recovery from the Great Strength King’s offensive before they became one, and all his attention was on the war and breaking free from the ring’s control.
‘I let my guard down.
’ -Grrrr!
-Grab!
Mok Gan, who had become one with the Great Strength King, hastily grabbed the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s tail that had pierced through his chest.
Her voice reached his ears.
-You should have made sure to cut off my breath before turning your attention elsewhere.
-You wench!
-Grrrrr!
Reddish lava flowed from the Great Strength King’s hands.
It was too late to calmly observe the situation to take advantage of the fisherman’s gain.
As it was a situation where he could even die if he stayed like this, Mok Gan, who had become one with the Great Strength King, forcibly endured the pain of his pierced chest and tried to turn his body to attack the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox.
However, -Whoosh!
In an instant, the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s tails wrapped around both his arms and legs, making it impossible.
Then the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox clung to the Great Strength King’s body, climbing up to his shoulders.
The Great Strength King tried to shake her off with force, but -Grab!
The Golden Nine-Tailed Fox grabbed his head and opened her mouth towards the third eye on the Great Strength King’s forehead, shooting a golden beam.
-Zzzzzzzzzz!
-Crack!
Feeling his life in danger, Mok Gan, who had become one with the Great Strength King, exerted tremendous strength in an instant, tearing off the two tails wrapped around his arms and throwing her away.
-Boom!
As the huge Golden Nine-Tailed Fox was thrown away, the ground shook and cracked.
However, even in the midst of this, before the beam of golden demonic energy stretching from her mouth could pierce the ground, it split the Great Strength King’s left eye and left horn.
-Zzzzzzzzzz!
-Kwaaaaargh!
As his horn, which could be called the center of demonic energy, was cut off, Mok Gan, who had become one with the Great Strength King, unable to bear the pain, let out a roar.
-You damn fox bitch, you must be crazy to want to die!
The pain soon turned into anger, and Mok Gan, who had become one with the Great Strength King, ran towards the Golden Nine-Tailed Fox who had not yet gotten up from the ground, trying to stomp on her head with his foot stained with lava.
-Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
It was at that moment when his hot and giant foot was flying towards her head.
-Slash!
A single black line cutting through the air.
Along with it, the Great Strength King’s foot, which had been stained with lava, fell helplessly, revealing the cross-section of his severed leg.
-Boom!
‘What?
’ The Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s eyes widened as she blocked the foot falling helplessly towards her face.
What just happened?
As she wondered, a roar of pain erupted from the Great Strength King’s mouth, his horn and eye now followed by his right leg being cut off.
-Kwaaaaargh!
Amidst the ear-splitting roar, a human figure was visible.
The Golden Nine-Tailed Fox’s eyes filled with joy as she saw the figure flying at an incredible speed.
It was none other than, ‘Heavenly Demon!
’ Mok Gyeong-un.
She was overcome by a strange feeling.
Since her birth in ancient times, had she ever received help from anyone?
It was the first time in her life.
‘Not bad.
’ As she savored this strange feeling, she suddenly wondered.
Wasn’t he dealing with the rampaging evil spirits?
When did he appear here?
Soon, her wondering eyes caught sight of countless torn corpses of evil spirits on the ground opposite the Ten Thousand Great Mountains.
Is this what they mean when they say corpses piled up to form a mountain of the dead?
‘!!!!!!!
’ Some evil spirits were still alive, but their numbers had visibly decreased to barely 20% of what they were.
At this level, the warriors of the three major forces could easily handle them.
‘He did that alone in such a short time?
’ The Golden Nine-Tailed Fox was genuinely amazed.
Not only did he almost annihilate the evil spirits by himself, but he also flew here and cut off the Great Strength King’s leg?
‘Ha!
’ It seems she had been mistaken.
She had thought that although he had become incomparably stronger than before, he still hadn’t reached the level of the Six Demons.
But that wasn’t the case.
The aura Mok Gyeong-un was emitting now was actually overwhelming the Six Demons.
