Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation

Chapter 233: Practice (1)

Meeting with warriors who were absolute warriors and learning under them which went for four months—

Originally the training period was supposed to be just two months, but as the final date approached, the masters pushed it down the road for another couple of months.

The method of evaluation changed too.

They decided to prove their strength by using the martial arts they taught to Seol-Hwi, showing the other that theirs were superior. Actually, when Seol-Hwi’s performance exceeded a certain level, both masters felt greedy.

The achievement of the disciple who showed more results than just expected was satisfactory.

In particular, the understanding of their techniques was unrivaled, and in some areas, they showed better knowledge and performance. So, the deadline was extended by three months, and then they began to touch the internal energy.

They even taught secondary martial arts which often followed after learning the primary martial arts. Among them, Cho Ah-ran, taught him the technique the Touch of Death.

“One point in the eyes in the Blood Demon Hand is a technique which is like a blessing to those who mastered it, that is the Touch of Death. Not only is it faster and more accurate than the normal ones, and the effect of it is a lot stronger.”

She pointed to a couple blood points.

“The blood flow you see now. If you use that at one point, you can stun or incapacitate the opponent with just one point.”

“Ah…”

Seol-Hwi naturally exclaimed.

The point method she taught really seemed to be useful. In particular, now that he had mastered the Blood Demon Hand, he did not need to learn the other martial arts.

So Seol-Hwi listened to her teachings with more concentration than usual.

“Especially when it comes to the fourth blood point, it is twice as effective as the general method. Now I will show you an example.”

It was not that difficult to understand it. It was because the sensitivity of his fingertips had already been trained to the extreme.

It was important to move quickly to the blood point, but it was also important to accurately grasp the movement of the target.

The Blood Demon Hand had martial arts specialized in those, so in a way, it was perfectly suited for the point method.

“And the second blood acupoint is also one of the important ones. I will teach how it is operated, so please try this as well.”

The technique which was taught later, moves the blood of the body however one willed it. Even if someone touched and sealed the blood point, it could still be stopped.

So he learned the two of them from Cho Ah-ran, and he learned the divine arts from Ack Ni.

Actually, when Ack Bi said he would teach him that, Seol-Hwi did not expect much.

He had learned the Heavenly Demon’s footwork, so he wondered if there was anything better than it.

As expected, when Ack Bi continued the explanation for the first time, he was not that interested.

“Selfless Swift Steps. This is very useful for those who use ice arts and will be of tremendous help.”

However, the moment Ack Bi performed the technique to show him, those thoughts vanished immediately.

Chung!

And he moved faster and faster, and began to step on the air before Seol-Hwi realized it. The unique footwork of freezing the air and stepping on it showed the highest possible level of footwork.

In addition, as soon as the speed began to pick up, the footwork turned extremely fast. This was where no illusion would be seen, but there was a lot to follow. In addition, even when a change of direction happened, the speed did not decrease but instead increased.

If the Heavenly Demon’s footwork was turning illusion to reality, this was making people doubt everything they saw.

Tuk

Ack Bi approached Seol-Hwi again and raised his hand.

“Now, if divine arts are practiced, it will be easier to use the ice arts. There is no need to raise the internal energy.”

The more the technique was used, the more the ice arts seemed to accumulate in Ack Bi’s body.

The power of ice arts in the hand he raised seemed to have accumulated several times more than usual. So, Seol-Hwi had no reason not to use this technique.

“Thank you, Master.”

Seol-Hwi began training according to the teachings of Cho Ah-ran and Ack Bi.

The Blood Demon Hand and Ice Moon Divine Arts, Seol-Hwi immersed himself in martial arts training and time flew by.

The day of the showdown came.

Seol-Hwi was alone on an unknown peak and was looking down at the bottom of the mountain.

On this day, there was no separate training, so the masters were not visible.

Wheeing

Despite the biting cold, it didn’t pose a threat to Seol-Hwi at all. He had reached the state of Supreme Demon before he knew it.

Is it time to choose?

The steady flow of his dantian had already been raging for the past few days. The bedside was cold and an intense light was leaking from the corner.

Seol-Hwi knew it—

The sign for Supreme Demon.

It must have been the insight I gained from the Blood Demon Hand and Ice Moon Divine Arts which brought me here.

When this phenomenon appeared in the past, he reached the peak by uniting the upper, middle and lower dantian.

But now, he was rejecting the old ways.

“Depending on what kind of martial arts you learn, the level of Supreme Demon martial arts will be different…”

This time, he refused to become a Supreme Demon by uniting the three dantians. In the end, there was no perfect way to move ahead. So he decided to stop at the last step.

That would be the case, and Seol-Hwi who reached this state in the past clearly remembered it.

The Four Peak Demonic Martial Arts.

After reaching the Supreme Demon level, he could not find the right way to get stronger. So he reincarnated like this and learned this from the beginning.

However, when he arrived at it again, he could not blindly climb it.

“If I get the help of two martial arts… can I climb until Profound Demon?”

The Blood Demon hand and Ice Moon Divine Arts—

These were the two martial arts which required special means to achieve the ultimate goal. Even so, the Blood Demon Hand was still a martial art which used the energy in nature, with the power to twist it once more.

This was because it was expected that if he went to the Supreme Demon level with this, he would have considerable difficulties in the understanding of internal energy.

But what if he achieved the Supreme Demon level with Ice Moon Divine Arts? He was also likely to get into complete trouble.

Even if the body was that of a skilled warrior, the flow of time will change, along with its ability to go against the order of nature.

As Cheon Miryo said, if understanding nature was the shortcut to Profound Demon, it must mean that the power beyond the ability of martial arts requires the power of nature.

But was he prepared to understand that level of discourse?

Nothing is easy.

In the end it was obvious that if he chose one of the two new skills and went to Supreme Demon, the same result as before would appear.

Of course, if he could break through the walls of the Supreme Demon level, that was enough.

He would not try to look for a way to the Profound Demon level. That is why Seol-Hwi was hesitant to climb.

I need the teachings of someone who is higher than it. If that doesn’t work…

Seol-Hwi decided to stop there. This was going to be his work from now on.

No matter what martial arts it was, if he did not solve it, no help would work. Then, it should not be extreme.

Because he had to think slowly and move the way he wanted to go.

There were three people gathered in the cave.

Finally, the day to verify it all came, the results of months of hard training. And today—

The one higher and lower would be determined by the martial arts he learned here.

“Kangho is said to give three skills. Let’s both give three to the disciple. How about it?”

When Ack Bi said it, Cho Ah-ran accepted it without saying anything.

“Then who is first?”

“You do it first.”

When Cho Ah-ran handed over the opportunity to go first, Ack Bi accepted it.

After he was a little further away, he spoke to Seol-Hwi.

“Now then. The martial arts of the Blood Demon Hand you learned. Use the strongest one…”

He took out a stick and drew a circle around his legs.

“If you can push me out, I will grant one wish.”

He was prepared and confident. In the first place, he thought that he could easily block the attack.

I have to do my best…

Seol-Hwi was looking down at the sword in his hand. It was the weapon which Cho Ah-ran gave him earlier. Even at first glance it seemed like a famous sword equipped with skills.

If he was clumsy with this sword, then he would be criticized by Cho Ah-ran.

Shhhh

When Seol-Hwi infused internal energy into it, red energy began to gather into the sword. It was the aura of the Blood Demon Hand technique.

Normally, this energy was derived from fingertips spread out while moving the sword body.

Look at him.

On the other hand, Ack Bi stood there, watching Seol-Hwi.

He knew that the kid mastered it, but did not think he would be sending it out like this. If it was the third level, then he would already be at a good level.

Considering that there were ten levels to reach the Supreme level, being at the eighth was already amazing.

“Start.”

“I come.”

Even so, Ack Bi did not lose his composure. That was what Supreme Demon was. He was able to respond to any level of attack and pressure of any type.

Master Ack Bi will definitely block it.

Seeing him, Seol-Hwi’s mind moved fast. There must be a reason why Ack Bi was this confident. A wall built with ice arts was what he experienced before.

This was because it would create an absolute defense of several layers of ice. Rather than a wall, it was a single strong barrier. And it was so hard that it could not be pierced.

There are two options. Shoot out Blood Killing Arts or break the wall with ice arts.

Since the latter would not work now. Seol-Hwi had to choose the first.

Of course, the time and distance was important. A high degree of concentration was a bonus now.

Goooo

“When are you coming?”

Seol-Hwi stared at him with the sword. Seeing him like that, Ack Bi asked.

Seol-Hwi knew.

It seemed like he was saying it without looking bothered, but he would respond with his best.

But there is there an opening…

No matter how many times or dozens of times he thought, he could not see any openings in the opponent. He could not see the road, so he could not move his hand.

Knock

Was there mental exhaustion?

Seol-Hwi had sweat coming down his forehead. There was this phenomenon of him seemingly being dizzy, but Seol-Hwi could not give up either.

He repeated it several times. Suddenly, a strange change occurred in Seol-Hwi.

Wheeing

The scenario in his head was starting to be more clear. He saw the air flowing which he did not see before.

Upper dantian?

Seol-Hwi felt it.

The middle and the lower had opened up but did not unite.

“Hah!”

Seol-Hwi could not delay this any longer, so he raised his sword.

And—

“…!”

Jjkkkk!

As expected, Ack Bi created an ice wall before he did.

Fail…?!

At the strange sight which unfolded before the eyes of Seol-Hwi, who was saddened for a moment—

Kwaak!

There was a huge roaring sound behind the ice wall along with the sound of something being thrown back. Cho Ah-ran looked shocked and Seol-Hwi was blank.

“You, how…”

And soon the reason came.

Cho Ah-ran asked,

“Did you use the Blood Killing Arts while using it as Void arts?”

Void arts?

The power to turn anything into shots. As a result, the technique flew over the ice wall and changed direction to attack Ack Bi. It was a similar attack to a sword technique.
