Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 442

Episode 442 Ruler of the South (2)

“You truly are an amazing person. You swallowed up the largest merchant union in southern Central Plains in just a few days.”

“It’s a lot of momentum, but it’s also unsettling.”

“hmm.”

“The Church of the Heavenly Demon is the organization that the martial people pay the most attention to. It was the same in the past and it is the same in the present. Doesn’t the situation in the central plains change depending on how the Church of the Heavenly Demon moves?”

“It’s the same for Uicheonmaeng and Sanghyeolseong.”

“Of course it is, but what I’m saying is…”

“I know what you mean. An angular stone is the right thing to do. “If we maintain a certain line, if we cross the line, the martial arts people may become one and try to put pressure on the Heavenly Demon Church.”

“The question is who is leading it.”

“Who could it be?”

“??.”

“If the target was not Gangseo Store, he might have been purely happy. “Because his ability to agitate the public is outstanding.”

“Gangseo Sanghoe is one of the greatest powers that Lord Dam has. So it may be more of a problem. Master Dam is a person who does not know how to give up. Since we have lost a great deal of power, we can drive the Heavenly Demon Church into a corner to receive commensurate compensation.”

“Yes, I will. That’s probably why the small religious leader, or rather the religious leader, did it this way.”

“yes?”

“This is the letter I received this morning. “Read it.”

“??I really don’t know how far ahead you are, Master Seo.”

“You probably didn’t think about it from the beginning. “I think the result was something like this because we were just trying to catch the leader of Dam.”

“Still, it’s great. “Gangseo Store raised money through illegal business and even made it known that Dam Master was behind it, so now it will be difficult for Dam Master to come to the forefront for the time being.”

“No.”

“yes?”

“What the sect leader wants is to kill the dam leader. “I’m sure you’re working hard to bring him to the forefront.”

“Ha, but if we continue like this…”

“I’ve been thinking about it. Why did the religious leader make himself known?”

“yes?”

“I’m talking about Gangseo Castle. He is the one who came directly to devour the Gangseo Chamber of Commerce whole and catch its leader. In that case, he should have hidden himself, but instead, he boldly made his presence known.”

“Thanks to you, we were able to quickly and reliably take down the Gangseo Chamber of Commerce, weren’t we?”

“That’s right. But what is His number one goal?”

“??!”

“It was my goal as the leader of the Heavenly Demon Church to swallow up Gangseo Sanghoe. However, to the leader personally, the leader of the dam is much more important than the Gangseo Store.”

“Then why make such an unreasonable number…?!”

“Because I don’t know where the other person is.”

“??!!”

“At the same time, the opponent will approach him in some way. Even if he is not the leader of Dam, he has no choice but to check the direction of Gangseo Province.”

“I see… But there is a chance that the Dam leader will hide even more because of that.”

“There is no chance of that happening.”

“Why is that so?”

“Because he thinks so.”

“yes?”

“The leader has made sharper and more accurate judgments than any other intelligence group in matters related to the Dam leader. “I don’t know how you analyze the Dam leader, but the leader always knew exactly how the Dam leader would come out.”

“Ah…!”

“You are sure this time too. They said they would contact me first. “Even if the cult leader himself appeared in Gangseo Province, he was confident that he would never hide and make contact.”

“I see.”

“The problem is us.”

“yes?”

“I think it’s about time.”

“Lord Moon?!”

“For the survival of the clan, we had to get under the enemy’s crotch. I sent a few letters secretly to try to help him, but I wonder how much help they would have had. Even after the collapse of the Uicheon Alliance, we were still unable to return to prepare for an unexpected situation.”

Gong Yachi smiled and raised his head.

“It’s a little early, but I think it’s time.”

“…Are you trying to stretch

yourself?” “The Heavenly Demon Church has swallowed up Gangseo Store. It is no different than showing his will to enter the world in earnest before his true intentions.”

“It means you don’t have to worry about Lord Dam anymore.”

“You have to pay attention. That’s why I said it was a bit early. But I wonder when I can go back if not now.”

Paralarak!

A bright blue dove flew in from the window and landed on Gong Yachi’s shoulder.

Gong Yachi’s eyes shone brightly.

“Now, let’s go give him strength.”

Geumju thought.

‘Unbelievable.’

Feeling the shocking force, he swallowed his saliva without realizing it.

‘What kind of strength is this!’

To be honest, I was somewhat dissatisfied with the orders from my superiors. This was because it was only now that he had completed the Hyeolgeumsingi (????) and was able to fully engage in the Seven Battles of War.

It was absurd that he, the high priest of Geumjeong, would be dispatched directly to Gangseo during the most important time. If he completes the Seven Battlefields Tactics, he will be able to overwhelm all the sword-wielding bastards in the central plains, so is this such an absurd order that he would be dispatched at such an important time?

Not long ago, I even heard that the fire master and the water master had reached the brink of completion of the executing technique.

I thought I would definitely have to consider it after this incident was over. Even though the opponent was a demonic cult leader, he firmly believed that he would never be defeated by a demonic cult leader.

That belief was shattered as soon as I arrived here in Hoyen Lu.

Phew.

Strangely enough, I didn’t feel any demonic energy.

As the purity of demonic energy increases, its tendency to expand becomes stronger, so conserving energy was several times more difficult than using divine skills. If there was a Demon Cult Master over there, the Demon Cult Leader’s level had to be much higher than he thought.

The problem was not magical energy but cold energy.

The weather, which had been warm and cozy, was rapidly becoming colder as we got closer to Hoyen Lu.

The temperature didn’t actually change. That was the overflowing energy that Geumju felt.

And Geumju was able to realize the identity of this energy, albeit belatedly.

‘Could it be an ice palace?!’

It was then.

“Hmm? “It’s surprising.”

A voice coming from the window on the top floor of Hoyeonru.

Even though it does not contain any internal energy, it gently penetrates into the ears. Geumju felt a chill running down her spine.

“I never imagined that I would come to the central plains and see a man of heaven. Moreover, he is not a henchman but a high priest of the Seven Lords?”

The voice was full of composure.

But Geumju knew. That composure is not due to belittling the other person, but comes from the natural demeanor of someone who has reached the highest level.

“Did you know that too?”

“I didn’t know. But we bumped into each other once before.”

“ah! I heard it from Lin. “You met the High Priest of Wood?”

“That’s right. I heard that they amplified the wood energy tremendously using the Seven Pillars of War or something like that.”

“Yeah, I think I’ve heard that too. Huh! If you think about it, you and Rin were lucky. Once the Seven Elements of War is completed, its destructive power is truly enormous.”

“Is it that much?”

“The yin and yang of the sun and moon are the strongest high priests in the seven heavenly dragons. They have already mastered the art of martial arts and can be said to have established extremely pure energy within their bodies. They are at the level of heavenly rank. “When I ascended, I once fought with Wolju.”

“How was it?”

“I lost.”

“You lost?”

“To be precise, it was closer to a two-party plan. However, I retreated because there was no need to risk my life, but even if I had decided to risk my life, I would have had to give up an arm.”

“I heard that the level of Heavenly Wisdom is the same as the level of the Extreme Demon Flower Realm in the central plains.”

“That’s right.”

“Does this mean that the high priests who have perfected the art of execution are no different from those who have reached the same level?”

“It’s a little different. The purity of the True Qi can be said to be above a thousand levels, but their enlightenment falls far short of the True Qi. However, they have many evil arts and magical arts that can make up for their somewhat shallow enlightenment. “I dare say that even today’s country will not be able to relax against Ilju and Wolju.”

“It sounds like there won’t be an earthquake.”

“You know, right? That winning or losing is not that simple. One wrong step can cost you your life. However, if it’s pure power vs. power, I think it’s worth it even against the two masters of the sun and moon.”

“In other words, if the masters of the remaining five elements complete their martial arts skills, they will gain power comparable to that of the masters of the sun and moon?”

“It also depends on the situation. If the environment supports it, it can show more power than expected, but in the opposite case, it can also show something below expectations. But if you look at the purity of the simple gem… you can answer yes.”

“That’s scary.”

“It’s scary. What’s scarier is that until I heard from you, I didn’t know that Damsayoung had taken control of the Heavenly Dragon Palace. Even though he had that power, why didn’t he show his magic soon?”

“I don’t know. There are probably many reasons. I can easily guess one of them.”

“What is that?”

“Church of the Heavenly Demon.”

Whiiiiing!!

The cool wind suddenly turned into a strong gust of wind.

Flash!

I thought a flame was flashing in the window on the top floor of Hoyeonru, and then Seoryang and Yeo Geukdo landed on the first floor.

Seoliang’s eyes sank coldly. .

“Dam Sa-yeong thought that the Heavenly Demon Cult would be the biggest obstacle in conquering the central plains. So, he planned to send King Salsuji, who is arguably the best in the central plains and arguably the best in history, to assassinate the Demon Cultist.”

“Huh! What’s the result?”

“It didn’t work out. But I expected it to inevitably fail.”

“Do you really think so?”

“That’s right. “Even if it were me now, not Master, I would definitely have failed.”

“That’s a lot of confidence.”

“It’s a given. And from now on, I plan to tell the whole world why Damsayoung was so afraid of the Heavenly Demon Church.”

Xu Liang took a step forward.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

At some point, the fire burning beneath his feet began to spread to the surrounding area.

It literally happened in the blink of an eye. Strangely enough, the objects touched by the magic fire were fine, without a single scorch mark, but they were brimming with a deadly force that was much more dangerous than the actual flames.

Geumju’s face turned pale.

Hwaaaaaaa!

The moment the fire covered the world, the hidden absolute magical energy began to rage like a storm.

‘omg!’

Geumju’s body automatically pushed back.

Even though I didn’t throw away the tension or shoot out the wind, my body is pushed. The pressure of the gushing demonic energy even pushed the body of Geumju, a supreme expert.

Xiliang lifted his chin.

The image of the devil who would turn the world into hell filled me with the absolute confidence that no one under heaven would ever be on top of me.

“You have quite a bit of guts. To think that he would defeat his subordinates and come alone. It’s really useful because it’s under Damsayeong.”

Geumju took a step back without realizing it.

It wasn’t that he was pushed out by the pressure of Magi. The body reacted on its own.

“by the way.”

Let’s go!

A dark blue thunderbolt flashed in Xu Liang’s right hand.

It was the manifestation of the absolute great power of the reigning Demon Emperor, the Manapgeummajang (?????).

“Shouldn’t we call our subordinates even now?”

Geumju shouted without realizing it.

“Geumnyeong-gwi (Geumnyeong-gwi)!!”

P-b-

b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b! Dozens of

monsters wearing golden glitter flew in from far away. At the same time, the new type of the week retreated all the way back. It was an amazing new technique that would make even the extreme demon expert stick out his tongue.

Seoliang grinned.

“Very good.”

Quaaaang!

The ground he stepped on was dented as if it had been hit by a gun. And before he knew it, Seoryang had reached Geumryeong-gwi’s nose.

It was the beginning of a race to catch Dam Sa-young.
