Chapter 805
????Evil Tyrant Alliance???
Namgung Hwang opened his mouth with a stiff face. Namgung Hwang??s face stiffened as he spoke.
??What do you mean Evil Tyrant Alliance?”
Jang Ilso nodded with a relaxed look.
??It??s a name that didn??t exist until now. But now it will become a name that no one can be unaware of. Eighteen Water Fortress of the Yangtze River, Black Ghost Fortress, Hao Sect, and Myriad Man Manor will gather under one name.??
??????The Evil Sect have formed an alliance???
During the war with Magyo a hundred years ago, the Evil Faction formed an alliance. But it was only a temporary alliance for survival, and even that was an imperfect fa???ade.
Is he saying that these Evil Sects that were so mutually antagonistic have gathered under one flag?
But there??s no reason not to believe it.
It is conceivable that the sect leaders of the Ten Great Sect gather together. And no one thinks it very strange that the heads of the Five Great Family gather in one place.
??But who could have imagined those four people standing side by side in one place???
That dreamlike event is unfolding right before their eyes now.
??Hmph!??
Namgung Hwang snorted derisively. As if he would never show a weak side.
??What??s so great about the trivial Evil Sect banding together???
??Indeed.??
Jang Ilso smiles brightly.
??It may not seem like much to the head of a prestigious family. However, we came together after making a big decision on our own, so why won't you congratulate us?”
“??.”
Namgung Hwang glared at him with eyes that seemed ready to devour him.
??Hmm. It seems you don??t intend to. What a shame.??
But the look didn??t make Jang Ilso flinch at all.
Even his tone of voice and his soft hand gesture show his composure.
Looking at such a Jang Ilso made one??s heart involuntarily anxious.
Heo Dojin stealthily looked behind him.
??It??s narrow.??
When they came in through that narrow valley, he thought it was a natural fortress for defense. However, as things went on, it seemed more difficult to get out than to enter.
??The ships will tangle together and hell will break loose.??
But there??s no way they can wait in a relaxed manner. The enemies will come after their backs.
??Retreat had no meaning from the start.??
Even if they had secured a way out and entered this place, nothing would have changed. A retreat is only meaningful if it can be used.
Having assessed the situation, Heo Dojin looked at Jang Ilso.
??Evil Tyrant Alliance??. Whatever it is, an alliance is a good thing. May I offer my congratulations???
Jang Ilso nods heartily.
??A celebration from Sect Leader of Wudang Sect. It??s a great honor.??
??I??m glad. But you see, Paegun.??
Heo Dojin??s gaze fixed sharply on Jang Ilso.
??You??re not in a position to be congratulated. If you truly want congratulations, shouldn??t you come down from there???
??Hahaha.??
Jang Ilso laughed merrily and shook his head.
??That??s right. Yes, that??s correct. It??s a fair point.??
“??.”
??That makes sense. But what can I do? I??m a scoundrel of the Evil Sect who knows nothing of manners. Isn??t it ridiculous to start acting righteously now???
??You??re not telling us that the Ryeonju of Evil Tyrant Alliance is scared, are you???
??Hahahaha. You??re saying something obvious. Of course, I??m scared.??
Jang Ilso??s cunning smile twisted grotesquely.
??Shaolin, Wudang, Namgung and Qingcheng. How could I not be scared when facing such a great sect? I??m so scared that I??m trembling as I stand here. Hahahahahahahat!??
Heo Dojin??s face grew cold.
??That scoundrel??????
It was meant to scratch his pride, but it didn??t work at all. Normally, when one first attains a high position, they tend to consider their appearance first, regardless of their original tendency.
But Jang Ilso didn??t seem that way at all.
Heo Dojin is well aware. Such a person is the most difficult and troublesome to deal with.
??Then??.??
He stared at Jang Ilso with cold eyes.
??It seems you??ve come to pay your respects.??
The way he spoke got more and more rough. It was proof that his inner mind was getting shaky and nervous.
??Respects??????
Jang Ilso slowly stroked his chin with his white hand.
??Is it your place to say that, when you??ve violated someone else??s territory and brandished swords without permission???
??It??s the first time I??ve heard that permission is needed to annihilate pirates.??
??Haha. That??s right. There??s no need for permission. Yes, it is. That was the case until now.??
There was an arrogant light in Jang Ilso??s eyes as he looked down at Heo Dojin.
??But now you??ll have to ask for permission. To this Jang Ilso, not anyone else.??
Gritt.
Heo Dojin gritted his teeth.
Who had he ever heard say this to him?
??Ask for permission???
He tightly grasped the sword at his waist.
??What if I can??t?”
??Hahahaha. You ask the obvious question. Surely, there must be a price to pay???
At that time, Namgung Hwang, who had been listening from the side, couldn??t contain himself anymore and roared in anger.
??You brat, all talk and no action! If you are so confident, come down and face my sword!??
??Hmmm.??
Jang Ilso looked around everyone with a strange expression and tilted his head.
??It seems that none of you understand the situation you are in.??
Then he nodded as if it was quite reasonable.
??That??s possible. Shaolin and Wudang, Nmagung and Qingcheng. The power of those four sects will never fall behind no matter what forces they encounter in the world. Moreover, this high cliff has its ambiguities in terms of strategic location.??
There??s no escape.
But they won??t be attacked either.
Even if arrows are shot or stones are rolled, or even if boiling oil is poured, it??s unlikely that these martial masters would suffer significant damage.
a??In addition, there are remnants of the Black Dragon Water Fortress.'
Quite a few have died, but more than three-quarters are still alive. Ignoring them and launching a wide attack would be an unacceptable choice, even for Evil Sect.
In the end, to attack, they would have to come down from the cliff.
If they fight head-to-head, no matter how much these four of the Five Great Evil Sect is, it??s worth facing. They couldn??t have brought all their force since they were in a hurry.
Jang Ilso clearly understood their thoughts as well.
??But??.??
With a sneer, Jang Ilso??s pale face twisted grotesquely..
??That??s a thought that came up from underestimating this Jang Ilso. It seems like you need to understand your own situation.??
At that moment, Heo Dojin felt a chill in his heart.
Jang Ilso flicked his finger lightly.
Snap.
The sharp sound echoed into the valley.
????.What is it???
Heo Dojin looked up at the cliff with tense eyes. Obviously, Jang Ilso had signaled something, but nothing seemed to move. An ominous silence lingered.
a??Is it a bluff?'
No, that couldn??t be??
It was just then.
Ureurung.
“??.”
?? A heart clawing terrifying sound was heard. It wasn??t that loud, but they could hear it clearly in this dead-rat-like silent valley.
??What??”
Kwaaaaaaaang!
At that moment, a thunderous noise erupted as if the sky was falling.
And then an unbelievable scene unfolded.
One side of the cliff they were stationed on exploded in a massive blast. The hazy dust rose like clouds, and the debris was shot like fireworks.
Kureurung!
Kureururung! Kureurung!
??This??.??
Even the world-known Heo Dojin was stunned with his mouth agape.
Soon, one side of the cliff where the explosion occurred slowly began to fall and tilt.
His mind went blank for a moment.
Kureurururung!
Massive-sized rocks began to fall with increasing speed, casting shadows over the heads of the four sects.
??Ah, ah?? Euaaaaaaakh!??
??Doooooodge!??
Even the elite of the elite, who feared not even death, screamed in terror, running away in chaos.
These were individuals who could risk their lives for their comrades. But the moment they faced that enormous falling rock, their hands instinctively grabbed and pushed aside their fellow Sahyung blocking their path.
It was an overwhelming sight.
It was something beyond reason and common sense. Even the world-known Heo Dojin was so overwhelmed by the sight that he opened his mouth blankly that he was unable to grasp what he should do.
??Euaaaaat!??
Surprisingly, the first to move was Namgung Hwang.
His sword spewed out a formidable Reinforced Sword Energy. It was more than twice as big and overbearing as Reinforced Sword Energy, which destroyed the whole ship just a moment ago. He roared as if to burst his throat and swung his sword.
Kwagagagak!
The Reinforced Sword Energy he discharged lodged in the falling rock. It was a truly formidable Reinforced Sword Energy and in fact it left scars of as many as five zhang length, but the rock did not break or crack.
??Euaaaa!??
Namggung Hwang did not give up and exerted his full strength again, spewing out another Reinforced Sword Energy.
??Amitabha!??
Bop Kye also chanted in a harsh voice, perhaps knowing what he had to do.
A massive golden fist force was added to Namgung Hwang??s Reinforced Sword Energy and struck the boulder.
Kwareureung!
Finally, a rock the size of a large pavilion was cut in two. But that was far from enough.
??What are you all doing! Break it! Break ittttttttt!??
When Bop Kye??s desperate scream rang out, the people finally came to their senses and exerted their internal strength, sending sword energy and fist energy upwards.
??Heuuaaaaaa!”
??Aaaakh!”
It was a scene close to madness.
Various attacks hit, sliced, and pulverized the falling boulder. The boulder began to split, crack, and crumble.
??More! More! Squeeze out all your strength! Otherwise, we all die! Hurrrrrrrrrrrrry!??
??Heuuaaak!??
The elite members of the Ten Great Sect, with bloodshot eyes, attacked with all their might. However, it was impossible to get rid of that colossal boulder from the beginning.
The rock, which was as large as a pavilion, broke and split apart into hundreds of rocks the size of people, crashing to the ground.
Kwang! Kwaaang! Kwaaaang! Kwang!
Rocks that had fallen from an immense distance were embedded into the solid ground as if crushing mud.
Kwaaaang! Kwaaang!
The series of falling rocks continued for some time.
The world shook, and the entire cliff seemed to scream in agony.
What could describe this place, where human screams and the screams of the earth mingled, if not hell?
Kung! Kuung!
Finally, the last rock hit the ground.
Dust filled the air thickly.
As if to hide this horrible sight from the world.
Only when the wind that blew from somewhere lifted the risen dust did the utterly horrific scene reveal itself.
Heo Dojin stared at the disaster before his eyes with a dazed and lost face.
??Ughhhhh????
??My, my leg?? My?? Ughhhh????
Those pinned by the rocks.
Those scattered about, bleeding.
The spilled blood was covered by the risen dust, and above it, new blood endlessly flowed.
Heo Dojin stared blankly at the scene and turned his eyes to the cliff above.
??Hahahahahat!??
“??.”
??Euhahahahahat!??
The insane laughter of Jang Ilso, sounding truly deranged, along with the jingling of his accessories, mercilessly filled the valley infested with groans.
