6.
No, that is not the case at all.
In a battlefield, people set up countless hypothetical scenarios and prepare for them, but they don’t actually think such things will happen.
No, to be precise, I just hope that doesn’t happen.
It’s not certain yet.
I prayed and prayed inwardly that it wasn’t true.
If this is a real spirit, then we’re really screwed.
“……
It wouldn’t be, would it?
I asked Yang Ja-pyeong, who had approached me, with a desperate heart, but…
“…….”
His tightly closed mouth shows no sign of opening at all.
“sheep……
Great Hero?
Why are your eyes trembling so violently?
“Damn it…….”
That is correct, Mannyeontoung.
Yang Ja-pyeong, snapping out of it with my cursing, even delivered the final blow.
Mannyeontoung.
I don’t know what the appearances of the other spirits are like, but compared to the Sun Empress, the appearance of the Millennium Earth Woong wasn’t particularly special.
If there is anything special about it.
“big…….”
It is incredibly huge.
It was as big as a house when it was crouching.
But when the guy got up.
“Shiba…….”
My head keeps bending endlessly.
A tall height that easily exceeds two pages.
A body so thick that it is hard to even guess how much one has to stuff into a day to maintain it.
Medium-sized black claws on its toes shine with a strange radiance, and a faint glow spreads from its eyes, which, unlike those of humans, have no whites.
I could understand that monsters that shed their skin, like the Imugi or snakes, were large, but it was hard to believe that a mere bear cub, which doesn’t even shed its skin, could have such a huge body.
Next to me, the voice of someone muttering to themselves, as if overwhelmed, can be heard.
“It truly is… a mystery of nature.”
“Is this the time to be marveling?” “That’s strange.” According to Yang Ziping, a divine spirit is a being that is difficult to find even if one wanders the Mukrim for a lifetime.
It must not be called a spirit for no other reason.
“But the Empress of the Sun has revealed herself, and now even the Eternal Earth Woong has appeared… … ‘It is certain that there is some connection to the Demonic Cult.’ Just as the Demonic Cult has occupied Mukrim, the Eternal Earth Woong stood in our way, radiating hostility.”
Can this really be called a coincidence?
I couldn’t believe I was that unlucky. Damn it, seriously.
“Uh, what are you planning to do?”
Nam Hwa-seong trembled, unable to take his eyes off Mannyeon Toung.
“What else can I do? We have to stick to the plan.”
Nam Hwa-seong’s face turns a poop-like color. Because Nam Hwa-seong is also a participant in this operation.
“Great Hero Yang, I need your help with the directions.”
Please take care.
At my gesture, the procession starts moving again.
The original plan was for the designated personnel to strike first as soon as they saw the spirit, lure it away from the group, and move as far as possible.
Judging by his massive size and the aura he exudes, there is absolutely no sign that striking first will resolve the situation.
It felt as if the fear of being prey, completely unrelated to the presence or absence of internal energy or the level of martial arts skill, had taken over my reason.
Kwoa woa woa woa!
A loud cry echoes throughout the entire forest.
Those who were moving cautiously stopped in their tracks, frozen solid without even realizing it, and barely managed to move again at the signal from the person behind them.
Get ready.
“Ah, not everyone has gathered yet…….”
“I need to keep them apart for now. How long are you going to wait?”
The goal is, above all, to separate the spirit from the main force.
It’s not a situation where we can hunt leisurely, and it doesn’t make sense to hunt spirits now that more than half are injured.
However, I wonder if it is possible to push away that heavy-looking thing.
But what can I do? I have to do it no matter what.
Push back as much as possible on the first move.
You can feel your inner strength rising even without saying a word.
White mist rose from the shoulders of the person with their hands clasped in prayer.
Everyone knows this.
That the moment that massive body goes on a rampage, tremendous additional damage will occur.
“Huh… crazy….”
Even Dang Gi-han and Mo Yong-jae-hwa, who joined late, were left speechless upon seeing Mannyeon Toung.
“H-Brother. How do you plan to deal with him?”
I don’t know either.
It’s the first time I’ve seen a bear like that. #What is the decisive difference between a divine spirit and an ordinary spirit?
My experience (once)
According to [the source], the biggest difference is that it is clever.
I cannot publish this to the academic community because the sample size is so small, but even looking at the current situation, that is the case.
Why is the bear cub facing us looking around at the front and rear of the procession, gauging the formation with that look?
“It is coming…….”
“What? Not yet…….”
Get ready!
It seems some of them are hoping that the bear might just watch and pass by.
I’ll say it again: you shouldn’t just view that as a stupid animal.
That bastard Taeyanghu manipulated Cheonyeonjin as he pleased and even spoke.
Kwoa woa woa woa woa!
Sure enough, as soon as it spotted the Sixth Battalion members gathered with the wounded, this bear cub began to charge.
Pour it out!
Rumble rumble.
I poured out the Gwangcheonsinjang I had gathered in my hand.
Kwagwagwagwang. Then, Namhwaseong’s Deer Antler Iron Cloud Palm adds strength, followed by the Great Power Diamond Palm, a masterpiece of Shaolin, pouring out its power.
Papapapapapang!
That is not the end.
As the full-scale battle began, all the members selected for the special task force started unleashing their respective martial arts skills.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Kwa-kwa-kwa!
Since the chunk is large, the burden of aiming has been reduced.
The mindset that if you just throw it, it will hit somewhere.
A tremendous force swept through the area, strong enough to completely cut out part of the forest.
Run!
As soon as the signal sounds, the students passing by cautiously start running like crazy.
If we get swept up in a battle here, there really won’t be a solution.
Puff puff puff puff puff!
The green Samyang Divine Palm is added one after another, and the Heaven and Earth Water Palm is shot out from both hands of Moyong Jaehwa.
The aftermath of the explosion was so severe that some of those passing by were running while spitting up blood.
The special task force was staring at Mannyeontoung, without even the energy to pay attention to them.
The air was thick with dust due to broken trees and piles of dirt covering everything.
Because the view is obscured, it is not possible to see exactly what condition Mannyeontoung is in.
“Lord, is he dead?”
Along with the unlucky words spat out by Nam Hwa-seong, the distinct massive body of Mannyeontoung is clearly visible through the hazy smoke.
Along with the curses spat out by someone from the special task force, the enraged Mannyeontoung burst into loud sobs.
When the dust cleared and the skin of the Millennian Earthworm was revealed, it was covered in small wounds, but no member of the special task force was filled with joy at the sight.
Because there wasn’t a single injury that looked serious.
Still, I harbored a little hope.
Because he didn’t seem to have any special abilities like the Sun Emperor.
Then again, unlike fire, it can’t exactly spit out dirt…
Fuck, he’s not actually going to spit it out, right?
Kuaaaah!
Did being hurt make the anger worse?
Mannyeontoung suddenly raised his hand. ‘The distance shouldn’t be enough…’ The distance between Mannyeontoung and the special task force members was such that even a massive body could not reach them in the length of a single arm.
however.
Bang—Mannyeontoung slams the ground.
*Smack*—the moment I thought, “Is he threatening me?”
“What the heck!!!!!”
The floor began to ripple and shake like waves.
I’m practically losing my mind from this overwhelming vibration.
The ground, surging like a river during a storm, passes the special task force and reaches the procession, bursting open like an explosion.
pop!
Soon, the piles of earth turned into waves and completely engulfed the students in the academy.
“Aaaargh!”
“W-what is this!”
“Cough…!”
The procession instantly turned into chaos, and the students were frantically trying to pull out those buried in the dirt.
In the meantime.
There was also a change in the appearance of Mannyeontoung, who let out a cry while celebrating his victory.
“H-Brother… that, that wound….”
The wounds that at least left a scratch.
It began to recover gradually.
What the hell is this, seriously. #Kwoawoawoawoa!
Thump, thump, thump, thump. Mannyeontoung, having recovered from his injuries, began to run.
Block it!!!!
As if he had drawn upon the Diamond Body Divine Art, a golden aura shimmered all over his body.
Right, with a self-defense weapon of that caliber, even the claws of the Millennium Earthworm…
At that moment.
“her…….”
I was dumbfounded to see Ilgak spring up from the ground and make eye contact with Mannyeontoung.
I mean, what do you intend to do by jumping so high?
puck!
bang!
As the bear cub swings its front paw at the new model that has sprang up right in front of its eyes, the golden new model flies away like an arrow.
“Th-that useless…….”
Since you unleashed the Diamond Body Divine Technique, you probably didn’t suffer any serious injuries.
I shouted at Nam Hwa-seong.
“Don’t forget that his body is three times our size!”
“Do you think I’m a fool!”
The bald man was dumber than Nam Hwa-seong.
Nam Hwa-seong puts on his protective gear and sticks tightly to Mannyeon Toung’s feet.
Mannyeon Toung tried to shake off Nam Hwa-seong, who was clinging to his feet, as if he found him bothersome, but Nam Hwa-seong’s body did not budge.
“Don’t underestimate Samwonmun’s Thousand-Weight Hammer, you dummy… Argh!”
Mannyeontoung shook his feet a few times, but when Namhwaseong could not fall off, he slammed his feet into the ground.
Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow!
Slam the floor several times with that huge body.
Boom.
A large pit formed in the hard earthen ground, and inside it remained only Nam Hwa-seong, who had eventually lost Mannyeon Toung.
Mannyeontoung, having dealt with Namhwaseong, pounced on the academy students struggling to escape from the pile of earth.
“Aaaargh!”
“Cough!”
With every swing of the hand and step, the number of corpses increases by one.
He swung his sword energy with a flashy sword technique, but it only left a small scratch, and Mannyeontoung did not budge.
Ta-da-da-da-da-da.
I ran toward Mannyeontoung with all my might, kicking off the ground with all my might.
And the moment it reached a height of one jang above the head of Mannyeontoung.
He used the Thousand-Weight Strike along with the Sword Energy and slammed the head down.
Couple Book.
It is a sword energy that slices through everything, yet the sound of it forcibly digging into flesh can be heard.
It would have been nice to catch it even like this, but the problem was that only the sound of flesh being cut, not bone, was heard. ‘You… are you going to dodge this?’ Mannyeontoung hurriedly snapped his head back at the last moment.
Thanks to that, the Red Light Sword only pierced the guy’s shoulder a little deeper.
The little guy shakes his body wildly, as if in pain.
In the meantime, he reached out his other hand with sharp claws, and I quickly drew my sword and jumped high again.
Its sharp claws swing beneath its toes by a narrow margin.
The defense is ridiculously strong, and swords don’t even penetrate properly.
Natural regenerative power is so good that wounds heal quickly.
Moreover, as if trusting in his own regenerative abilities, he was ignoring the powerful special task force and unleashing a one-sided attack on the wounded. ‘This won’t do… I need a plan…’ At that moment, I saw the guy’s eyes filled with a bloody glow.
And the moment he lowered his hand.
He drew up the Yang family Qi obtained by capturing the Sun Empress and performed the Thousand-Weight Kick once again.
Puff puff puff puff puff!
The scorching heat pouring down like rain burns the fur of the Mannyeontoung and emits a foul odor.
He swung his hands wildly, as if the pain of the burns was greater than being cut by a knife.
After narrowly missing its claws and coming down to the floor, I pulled my body back through its crotch.
I shot the Flying Dragon and climbed behind it again.
And then.
Crackling sound
With both hands full of sunlight, he burned the guy’s eyes just like that.
Kwoa woa woa woa woa woa!
Mannyeontoung, covering his eyes with both feet in more pain than ever before.
Taking advantage of that moment, I wrapped the Flying Dragon Bird around the guy’s neck and ran toward the rear at full speed.
And using the thousand-pound weight, he began to draw out the Mannyeon Toung.
“Now! Hit!!”
Once again, explosive force erupted from all directions, and Mannyeontoung, still blindfolded, began to be slowly dragged toward the Flying Dragon.
Nevertheless, the eternal earthen snail stands almost motionless in its spot.
At that moment, the immense force of a giant struck Mannyeontoung from within the forest.
Bang—a huge vibration felt through the air, as if a bell had been struck.
Master Toung, I cannot view you as merely an animal.
A dry gaze from a corner turns toward the student dormitory students who died in the pile of dirt.
Carnivores hunt only when they are hungry.
One corner’s clasped hands take turns reaching toward Mannyeontoung.
Thump—thump—with every movement of his hand, the heavy ringing of the bell spread, and the figure of Mannyeontoung, who had been as immovable as a mountain, began to be pushed back.
Ttooooong─Ttooooong─Kwowowowowowowo!
Mannyeontoung tried to resist, but as long as he could not take his hand off his eyes, he was only pushed further and further back.
Thump—thump—finally, the new form of the Millennium Earthworm broke far out of the procession.
Golden power emanates from the two fists of the corner.
Puff puff puff puff puff puff
For the first time, Mannyeontoung sheds a massive amount of blood and sheds flesh.
Seizing this opportunity, Dang Gi-han thrust a poisoned dagger into the wound.
“Hwaaaah!”
Finally, I tried to cut off his arm with my sword.
However, even though the flesh was deeply gouged out and the bone was exposed, the bone itself was not cut off.
Grrrrrrr.
The moment I thought something was strange.
My gaze met the two eyes of Mannyeontoung, which had been burned by fire.
Whoosh
It would be nothing more than a light swing.
The entire interior shook violently.
The moment I smashed a couple of trees, barely managed to stop, and pushed off the ground to stand up.
“Squeak.”
Blood gushes up.
He was definitely wearing a self-defense suit…
How did Il-gak and Nam Hwa-seong endure this?
Suppressing the internal injuries that threatened to turn me inside out, I ran back to Mannyeontoung.
Hoping that the last scene I saw is not reality.
Kwoaah woaah woaah—the eyes of the Millennium Earthworm, which had been threatening while letting out a ferocious cry, had returned to their original state.
Dog-like regenerative power.
“Damn it… are you a zombie?”
Even the wounds inflicted by pouring out all of the Special Task Force’s internal energy are healing in an instant.
The special agents’ expressions suddenly contort.
The same goes for the students searching for the injured buried in the piles of dirt.
“Th-how am I supposed to… deal with this….”
“What on earth is it…….”
Everyone freezes at the absolute difference in power that is impossible to overcome.
Sigh, I didn’t want to take on this kind of risk.
chuck.
He put away the Red Light Sword and withdrew the special task force.
“Rescue the people trapped in the piles of dirt first, starting now!”
“J-Jin Danju?”
“hurry!”
The special agents who were confronting Mannyeontoung slowly retreat one by one.
Mannyeontoung, thinking he had won, tries to lunge at the students again.
He unleashes the Gwangcheon Divine Palm residing in his hand toward the guy.
The internal energy filling the Danjeon was instantly depleted.
Flames shoot up all over Mannyeontoung’s body.
but.
“Damn it…….”
Along with acrid smoke, the flames soon gradually subside.
As the damage heals, even the traces of the burn are extinguished.
Nevertheless, I cannot stop.
After glancing briefly toward the pile of dirt, I climbed straight up onto the body of the Millennium Earthworm and tightly wrapped the Flying Dragon Bird around its neck.
“Jin Danju! I’ve saved everyone!”
“Then move quickly!”
“but…….”
“It’s an order! Hurry!”
At the same time as I shouted, the students who had rescued the injured began to leave the arena.
In the meantime, he activated the Blue Dragon Orb with full force. ‘With such incredible regenerative power, I won’t turn into a mummy.’ Using the Blue Dragon Orb in front of this many people is extremely dangerous.
However, I absolutely could not think of any other way.
“Let’s see who wins!”
Riding the Blue Dragon Ring, a massive amount of internal energy flows into the Danjeon.
A massive wager that felt like it would cause all the blood vessels, including the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, to burst.#“Ugh……
Ugh… … .”
The blood vessels in the face and the entire body swell up as if they are about to burst.
No matter how immense the power, the dantian, which had exceeded five sixty years, quickly becomes full.
“Aaaargh!”
I once thought that as long as I had the Blue Dragon Orb, I wouldn’t fear any enemy. But I realized something while facing Je Geum-hak.
That it was just arrogance.
The Danjeon, blood vessels, and energy vessels all have their limits.
The human body is not hard iron.
The energy absorbed roughly eventually exhausts the body.
Energy rises, and bursts out exactly as much as it has risen.
Whether it’s the Holy Flame Demon Slayer Hand or the Mutual Annihilation Fist, I pour out whatever can deal damage.
How fortunate it is that he doesn’t spew flames from his whole body like the Sun Empress.
Kwoaow
Not only the lower abdomen, but the blood vessels throughout the entire body swell up as if about to burst, then contract instantly as if about to break.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
When Mannyeontoung tried to shake me off but realized it was impossible, he began rolling in all directions and slamming his body against the giant tree.
Another bucketful of blood gushes out of the mouth.
In the end, he tried to unleash the Flying Dragon and break free, but…
“shit…….”
Perhaps because they got tangled while rolling together, the silk threads won’t unravel.
There is no need to panic. If you calmly control your internal energy… … .
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Unable to wait that long, Mannyeontoung rolls on the ground again.
He could not detach from Mannyeontoung’s body because his hands were tightly bound by the Flying Dragon.
He activates the Blue Dragon Ring once again and unleashes the Holy Fire Demon Slayer Hand with the absorbed energy.
As the Holy Fire Demon Slayer Water touched the newly healed skin of Mannyeontoung once again, the creature let out a scream as if about to collapse.
Come to think of it, even I would go crazy if I kept burning my scalp.
I approached his head while he was disoriented.
Crunch.
As I peeled off the burnt, wrinkled, and crumpled skin, a black skull was visible.
Damn it, is this bone or steel?
kkung
-Kkung
“No matter how hard I strike the bone with the Holy Flame Demon-Slaying Water, there is absolutely no sign of it being pierced. ‘Is this the limit…?’ ‘I can’t believe it, but I feel like I could catch it if I just pushed a little harder.'”
I have enough internal energy in my lower abdomen, but for some reason, I can’t put any more strength into my arms.
I wish someone would just land a knockout blow on me…
“Who is here…….”
When I turned my head, only a lifeless corpse remained.
Ah, I told everyone to run away saying I would use the Blue Dragon Pill.
I have to run away now, too…
It is not easy to unravel the silkworm cocoon, and even if I do, the Mannyeontoung, who is furious to the core, will not just let me go.
I gave up on such expectations.
If I were Mannyeon Toung, I would chase him to the very end and tear him to shreds, even if it meant losing an arm.
In the end, it will be one or the other: either I die from my blood vessels being torn to shreds and my divine power running out, or I die from the Millennium Earth Bear’s regenerative power being completely exhausted…
I mean, it doesn’t seem like Mannyeontoung will die first.
Look at this, the flesh is healing again right now, isn’t it?
I just hope the Life and Death Group can escape in time.
At least while I’m holding the Millennium Earthworm…
“Jin Danju!”
Then, a voice was heard from a corner that had to evacuate along with the injured.
huh?
I barely managed to turn my head to see a shiny bald man running toward me. ‘He’s so damn disobedient.’ Still, I guess it’s a relief.
He let out a smirk and quickly looked at Mannyeontoung.
Although it became a bit gaunt, it did not turn into a mummy.
You wouldn’t doubt the Absorption Technique after seeing this, would you?
“One corner! It is the Hundred Steps Divine Fist!!”
“Uh, huh?”
“Head! Smash the bones of your head!”
It will not be possible to destroy it with ordinary martial arts.
Because no matter how much I struck it with the Holy Fire Demon Slayer, it didn’t budge an inch.
In that sense, how fortunate it is that the most disobedient people are just a few of them.
If it is the Shaolin Seventy-Two Ultimate Techniques, it will demonstrate sufficient destructive power.
I know why you are hesitating.
But now is not the time to argue about that.
“Hurry up, you bald head!!!”
Il-gak’s hesitant expression turns serious.
Then, his robe swells up as if it is about to burst.
“Jin Danju, be careful…….”
He seems a bit pissed off for some reason… He won’t make a mistake, right?
While trembling with anxiety like that.
Woooong.
Space distorted like a mutual destruction technique, and a powerful energy barrier was generated in the void.
A martial art boasting the highest level and destructive power among the 72 Shaolin techniques.
Baekbosin Kwon.
wedge
– Kwon-gyeong falls, leaving a trail like a shooting star.
And it explodes precisely into the skull of the Millennium Earthworm.
Bang—I was almost dragged backward for a moment by the tremendous punch, but no accident occurred because Cheonjamsae held my body in place.
“Jin Danju, have you become one?”
I unconsciously gave a knowing smile to Il-gak, who was asking with a weary expression.
crack
A small crack appeared in the skull of the Millennium Earthworm, which looked harder than steel.
There is enough space to insert the Holy Fire Demon Slayer.
Disobedient bald man.
It’s useful for the first time.
Gathering my last remaining strength, I thrust my hand deep inside.
