Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation

Chapter 120: Increase All Stats (5)

“Why are you so noisy in the morning?”

It was the dawn of a new day.

Standing at a place where the horizon was visible, Seo Ryeong frowned as she questioned two men.

The aforementioned people were arguing with each other about something.

“You’re here?”

“Hey.”

Yorim, who had just gotten there, greeted Seo Ryeong first. Jeok Song, who was leaning against a tree, raised one hand to greet Yorim.

“What’s going on?”

When Seo Ryeong asked Jeok Song, he replied calmly,

“Those two want to show us the abilities of their Divine Weapons.”

“They can do that any time. Why bother calling us all here?”

“Let me guess, they want us to decide which is better?”

Seo Ryeong was annoyed. Yorim noticed this and smiled. He had an interested expression on his face, as if he found the current situation funny.

In fact, Seo Ryeong was not wrong.

Yong Jin and Imugi had been fighting since the day began about whose Divine Weapon was superior.

The two couldn’t come to a conclusion, so before everyone’s training started, they gathered them all here.

“Is everyone present?”

Imugi asked. Yong Jin looked around and nodded. Then, he spoke to his rival.

“Are you going first?”

“Of course.”

Imugi stepped forward, and with everyone’s attention on him, he announced confidently,

“Have you all heard of Shifting Transition?”

“…”

“….”

No one responded. It wasn’t because they didn’t know of it, but because they didn’t know why he was asking them this.

Imugi continued to speak, like he had expected their silence.

“Shifting Transition - a form of martial arts that can be unfolded only when one reaches the highest level. It got its name because it creates an illusion of one person turning into two.”

There were still no questions from everyone present.

“Why do you think I’m acting like this? It’s my Divine Weapon! It has the ability to create four of me. And that’s not all! The moment I swing my sword at the enemy, I can annihilate my target from four different directions!”

“Really?”

“Are you telling the truth?”

Yorim asked in amazement, and Jeok Song was curious too.

After seeing their reactions, Imugi felt satisfied.

“I’ll show you! It’s different from the abilities of your Divine Weapons.”

Imugi pulled out his Willow Leaf Blade.

Even Seo Ryeong, who didn’t look interested before, seemed focused now. Imugi felt the gazes full of anticipation on him.

“Here I go!”

Imugi looked around once more, and then stood up straight, holding his sword in his hand.

“Let’s start, let’s start!”

Every phrase was punctuated with a movement.

He looked like… a frog, with its legs tucked underneath its body.

Imugi would stand up, squat, stand up, squat, and so on and so forth. Like this, he would switch between being a human, and a “frog”.

“…”

“…”

“…”

Everyone felt embarrassed, even though the subject of that embarrassment didn’t feel ashamed of himself at all.

“Let’s start, let’s start!”

After Imugi did his standing and squatting six more times…

He stepped back, jumped forwards, held his sword with both hands, and then shouted,

“Vertical Horizontal Sword!”

“…?!”

For a moment, everyone’s eyes widened.

Around Imugi, three more copies of him were created. And then, following the same slicing motion of the original Imugi,

Swish! Swish! Swish!

“Woah!”

“Wow!”

Front, back, right, and left.

Blades moved from all directions towards the space which Imugi considered as his enemy.

In this way, he could attack the opponent without getting too close to them. Someone who wasn’t aware of this ability would be taken down before they even knew what had happened.

Everyone was shocked, except for one.

“Is that all? Don’t worry, guys. My weapon is better.”

Even after seeing Imugi’s ability, Yong Jin’s confidence in himself didn’t waver.

Seol-Hwi’s subordinates shifted their attention to him. Perhaps because Imugi’s ability was so amazing, all of them were eager to see what was to come.

“Alright, here I go…. One, two, one, two!”

Instead of standing and squatting like Imugi, Yong Jin shook his head side to side, while standing still. Every time he turned his head left or right, he made a noise with his mouth.

“One”, Yong Jin turned his head left. “Two”, Yong Jin turned his head right. “One”, left, “two”, right.

As a result, a strange sight could be seen.

“Do you really have to make those noises? No matter how much I think about it, what you are doing seems unnecessary…”

Seo Ryeong had recovered from her earlier shock. Jeok Song also had something to say.

“My thoughts are the same. Such bizarre movements don’t seem to have anything to do with activating your weapon’s ability.”

Yorim hurriedly interrupted them.

“Shhh! If you say that out loud, those two idiots will never let us hear the end of it!”

“Uh…”

“Um…”

At Yorim’s warning, Seo Ryeong quickly covered her mouth, and Jeok Song coughed. Still, they couldn’t help smiling.

“One, two, one, two!”

Even during the others’ conversation, Yong Jin never stopped moving.

No matter how many times Seol-Hwi had done this, Yong Jin would have to do it ten times more. Then, at some point…

Yong Jin jumped into the air with one leg bent.

“Now he does it.”

As soon as those words left Yorim’s mouth, Yong Jin swung his sword.

Pssshhh!

Yong Jin disappeared from sight.

“Void Air Movement?!”

Jeok Song exclaimed, and Seo Ryeong and Yorim looked up.

Yong Jin appeared much higher in the air than he was before.

“This can’t be Void Air Movement. So what is it…”

Seo Ryeong wondered. The way Yong Jin moved was different from stepping on air. What Yong Jin did was simply jump, disappear, and then suddenly reappear at a higher position.

“Is it teleportation?”

“It can’t be…”

“In the end, it will depend on how it is used, and in what situation.”

Yorim, Jeok Song, and Seo Ryeong gave their opinions on the matter one at a time. Meanwhile, Yong Jin made his way back to the ground, and approached Imugi.

“How was it?”

Yong Jin asked Imugi after a while.

“That was great!”

Imugi complimented Yong Jin.

“Yeah, you did good too.”

Yong Jin praised him back. They both looked happy. They had argued with each other about whose weapon was better, but after seeing each other’s abilities, they agreed that both were.

“Should we tell them…”

Seeing them like that, Yorim spoke quietly to Jeok Song and Seo Ryeong.

“Let’s leave them alone.”

“We will only tell them when they are on the verge of death.”

Jeok Song refused, and Seo Ryeong agreed with him.

Dududu!

Suddenly, a loud roar could be heard. The mountain was rumbling. Rocks and debris were falling off of Mount Daetong.

“It’s not a landslide, so why…?”

Yorim questioned why the mountain was like that. Seo Ryeong answered immediately.

“That’s where the Captain is.”

Seol-Hwi was practicing his martial arts.

He inadvertently caused an avalanche, after the rocks he was training with broke apart, and rolled down the mountain. Seol-Hwi was surrounded by a cloud of dust.

Should he say he lost control in the heat of the moment?

Seol-Hwi’s eyes looked at the flames burning unrelentingly on the grass. The flames burned without dying, and they looked different from a normal flame.

“This is the Sura Exploding Flame Arts…”

It wasn’t a difficult skill to use, and it even felt easier to control than his other abilities.

*Flame Aggregating Demonic Martial Arts Skill Table* [Sura Exploding Flame Arts]: (Run) ? ? ?, A

Since both strength and flame were used at the same time, the damage incurred would be great, on the one who was hit by the attack. Seol-Hwi felt amazed that the Supreme Pavilion Lord trained with a power like this, to climb to the top.

And there’s another, even stronger than this one…

What’s more surprising than the Sura Exploding Flame Arts, was that there’s another technique above it.

Hellish Annihilation.

It was a force that was known to not exist in this world.

Therefore, it was a skill which could be learned only by those who reach the peak of Supreme Demon level. It was something that a normal human body couldn’t handle.

“Okay, let’s move on to Supreme Wind God now.”

Seol-Hwi remembered the actions of the AI.

At that time, he only saw the power of Supreme Wind God after it tore down the building. Seol-Hwi didn’t have a full understanding of it.

It’s a little difficult to activate though…

Seol-Hwi thought, as he looked at the table in front of him. Actually, Supreme Wind God wasn’t much different from Wind God, other than one thing.

*Four Peak Demonic Martial Arts Skill Table* [Supreme Wind God]: ? N(Neutral) ? ?, A <25x speed>

25x speed. That was the only change.

Seol-Hwi wondered how hard it would be to move 25 times faster, but then another issue popped up.

The shoes given to him by Elder Baekhon.

Unlike before, with the previous ability, one movement to activate Supreme Wind God wasn’t removed.

“Should I take the shoes off, and try again?”

Just in case, Seol-Hwi took the shoes from Elder Baekhon off.

<Which skill would you like to choose?> ? Supreme Wind God ? Sura Exploding Flame Arts ? Supreme Low Temperature Ice ? Thrift Wind Sword

So it was because of this!

Seol-Hwi’s face brightened right away.

As he gained access to more skills, it seemed like he needed confirmation to use them.

“Right. If I don’t get rid of this one, I can’t even attempt the Supreme Wind God.”

Seol-Hwi didn’t hesitate. He chose to erase the ‘(N) Neutral’ movement, which was something he never quite understood.

[Revised version] [Supreme Wind God]: ? ? ?, A <25x speed>

“Done!”

Seol-Hwi felt happy, but also worried at the same time. If he ever lost these shoes from Elder Baekhon, he wondered if he’d be able to activate Supreme Wind God without them.

“That’s why I need to do my best in this life.”

Seol-Hwi put the Windwalker Demon Sword down.

This sword, that was given to him by the Earth Demon, has the effect of nearly doubling the power of Supreme Wind God. Seol-Hwi wanted to confirm what it was like without the doubling effect.

“Haaa!”

The first try was a failure.

“Haaahh!”

The second try too.

“Haah!”

Finally, on the fourth attempt,

Swish!

Something happened.

<Using the Supreme Wind God>

Papapat!

Previously, Wind God would only generate wind and thunderstorms, but this time, a blue light moved along with the wind.

The storms tore through the mountain, causing it to rumble and shake.

Seol-Hwi wondered what the blue light was. It didn’t look very dazzling, but the outcome of it was amazing.

The rocks which had the blue light pass by them, were crushed to the point that they were no longer rocks anymore. The blue light made the rocks and debris disappear.

This was something Seol-Hwi didn’t think was possible before reaching Supreme Demon level.

It was so powerful, that perhaps even those who were at Supreme Demon level, would not be able to handle it.

-It will be of great help in times of crisis.

“It’s like that AI said…”

Seol-Hwi was still scared of what was coming in the future, but with this level of strength, he couldn’t give up.

During the chaos of the mountainside collapsing, Seol-Hwi made his escape.

“Captain!”

“What happened?!”

Seol-Hwi saw his subordinates rushing up to him worriedly.

“Let’s head back to the Sect.”

“…”

“Because the remaining two months can’t be wasted.”

Seol-Hwi gave them instructions, but in fact, the order to return to the Sect had already been given by the system.

<Would you like to return to the Sect?>
