Chapter 454
Episode 454 Lion’s Claw (4)
Seoryang’s body, which was about to advance immediately, hesitated for a moment.
‘no.’
I was definitely shocked. However, it was not enough to make him lose his grip on the sword. In the first place, the sword and hand are covered in ice, and unless you try to remove it with internal energy, it will never be removed.
‘I didn’t miss it, I pulled it out on purpose!’
It was then.
Whoa!
The ink-colored essence once again appeared on the giant sword that was flying high in the sky.
It was much more powerful than when I held it and swung it with my hand. It felt like the deadly energy sealed within the sword body was surging, as if the sword itself was a living thing.
Xu Liang’s eyes wavered.
Paaaaaaaa!
The giant sword moved.
By myself in the air.
‘Dark sword!’
Piyuuung! Whoa whoa!
Seoliang exquisitely dodged the sword. It was a brilliant evasion ability.
Surprisingly, the giant sword, which was supposed to be stuck in the ground, did not stop. It dug into the ground gently, as if gently pressing the tofu with a finger.
Xiliang’s magical eyes scanned all directions.
‘where?!’
Quaaaang!
The huge sword that came out of the ground with an explosion was immediately aimed at Seo-ryang’s back.
Seo-ryang, who tried to immediately avoid it, felt embarrassed for a moment. Before I knew it, the blood-covered money transfer bag was approaching right in front of me.
Although it only lasted a moment, it was as if it was a battle between Japan and Japan. Trying to avoid it in the first place was a mistake.
No, in fact, it was too harsh an evaluation to call it a mistake. This is because, no matter how much money you have, using a sword while being hit by the Jincheon Byeokseokpa itself was incredibly difficult. No one would have thought that he himself would be attacked in the meantime.
The face of Zhong Zheng Baek appeared in Xiliang’s magical eyes.
Blood was pouring from his nose and mouth, and his face was pale. It is definitely unreasonable.
‘Yes, you want that too.’
A fight between absolute masters can end in one fight, or it can last for seven days and nights.
This fight was obviously the latter. The heart, energy, and body of the two masters have entered the realm of perfection, and there is a clear reason why neither should lose. Even though we tried to get them to let down their guard, each of them was so well-disciplined that it got to the point where the fight was meaningless.
In the end, this fight was a fight of endurance. However, neither Seo-ryang nor Jong-seong-baek wanted that.
Flash!
That split second moment.
Xu Liang realized. The fact that he hasn’t used his full power until now.
To be precise, he did his best, but it showed a different aspect from his usual fights.
‘I didn’t throw everything into this fight.’
The reason why he has been able to overcome opponents stronger than himself.
Because you’re good at it? Have a lot of experience? Because you have great senses?
This is all correct. However, there is another decisive reason.
He would do anything to kill his opponent. Even if it means risking my life.
That was the natural attitude of a warrior facing a life-or-death situation. At least that’s what Seo-ryang thought.
‘So, what kind of mindset did I have going into this battle?’
The answer to the question came to mind quickly.
It’s an anger outburst.
He was truly angry and tried to take out his anger on Song Zhengbaek.
Of course, the intention to kill him was clear. I tried to concentrate to kill.
However, he did not throw everything away like before.
‘Because I am the cult leader.’
Yes. He was the leader of the Heavenly Demon Church.
He was a person who should not have died in a place like this. Before that, there was someone who would take responsibility for his death, but now that he has become the leader of a religious cult, he cannot ignore the responsibility of all people that he carries on his shoulders.
‘I made a mistake.’
Xiliang’s eyes regained their composure.
‘I was never the type of person who could move around so carelessly.’
He knew that instinctively. That’s why I wasn’t as immersed in this battle as I was before.
Finally, Seo-ryang realized. Why didn’t Lee Cheon-sang come out into the world?
Climbing to such a high level? Because it is clear that heaven will restrain you?
Not like that.
This is because before that, he was the head of an organization and a person called God. Such a person should not act like a general at the forefront, saying that he can solve the problem if an incident occurs.
Even Lee Cheon-sang, who had reached a state where no one under the sky could touch him, acted like that. This is because there was a clear awareness of one’s own position before the issue of providence.
That is the weight of the head of Munju.
There is only one case when a leader has to risk his life.
‘Unless the safety of the Church is at stake, I am in a position where I cannot risk my life carelessly.’
I realize the truth that I knew in my head through the fight with the remittance bag.
A split second of time is literally a split second. But in that brief moment, Seo-ryang’s thoughts were spinning at high speed. Even he himself didn’t know how this was possible.
‘Then why was this person waiting for me? ‘Were you sure I would be weak?’
Flash!
Another bolt of lightning struck the corner of my head.
‘The Iron King is eight years old.’
Yes.
The Iron King Eight Ages, whose temperament was much thicker and tougher than when he was the King of Sal, were stationed nearby. Even if Song Sang-baek is faced with a truly fatal situation, he is confident that he will somehow escape with the help of the Iron King.
I am standing here because I have thought of all of that and am confident. He is completely different from himself, who charged like a wild boar on fire for the Protestant cause and personal goals.
‘then?’
One realization soon gave way to another.
‘I shouldn’t even kill Iza.’
Song Sang-baek clearly intends to kill himself. No, it has to be that way. This is because he joined hands with Dam Sa-young and had already made some preparations to attack the Heavenly Demon Church. If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t be waiting here.
Seoliang was different.
If you kill Song Zhongbaek now, war will break out. War is not scary, but it is extremely irresponsible to rush into it blindly, believing only in the fact that the Heavenly Demon Church is powerful.
The idea of killing the other person because they are just an inconvenience without even knowing anything about them.
In a situation where you can’t even guess what level of power you have, you stick to the attitude that you’re not afraid because you’re confident no matter who you fight with.
That… is the thinking of a very immature person. It was an idea that at least the head of an organization should not do.
‘It’s a completely different matter to know your opponent and act without knowing him or her.’
It was confusing.
The person who holds the lives of so many demons in one hand only says that he feels responsible, but his actions are no different from before.
Shhh!
The sound spread slowly.
Before he knew it, Zheng Zhongbaek’s fist had reached half an inch in front of his chest. If you are hit by this fist, you will be thrown back, and then your body will be pierced by the huge sword and you will die.
Seo-ryang closed his eyes.
‘What a contradiction.’
To overcome this crisis, we must risk our lives as before. However, since he is the leader of a religious cult, he should not risk his life carelessly.
You must not kill Zheng Zhongbai in this fight. However, if you do not seriously immerse yourself in the life-or-death situation, you will definitely be defeated.
‘then.’
Can not help it.
How can we overcome the current situation where we have made such a big mistake, unlike previous accidents?
‘Remittance back.’
Seoyang opened his eyes again.
Now Zhong Zhenbaek’s fist was touching Xiliang’s clothes.
‘I hope your body has been trained enough to withstand my killing methods.’
The Gu Yuma Qi that unconsciously controlled life exploded all at once.
Fuuuuuuuu!!
A terrifying pillar of fire rose high into the sky.
I’m crying!
Blood poured out from Seo-ryang’s mouth. It was not possible to completely block Zhong Zhenbaek’s fist.
Still, I avoided the giant sword. This was because, even as he was thinking for a split second, his feet were stepping on the Demon Lord’s Limbo.
But that wasn’t important now.
Kwasik!
Grasp the ground with your hands.
The hard soil was dug in the shape of a finger.
‘fast!’
Zheng Zhongbaek looked behind him. In his eyes, he saw Seo-ryang with a lowered posture.
Hehehe!
Above Song Zheng Baek’s head, the Taecheon Geogeom gave off a yo-yo glow. The sword is not over yet.
“It must have been quite a painful blow. “It must be a more severe internal injury than if I had overexerted myself.”
Grumbling.
Bloody tears once again flowed from Zheng Zhongbaek’s eyes.
The tears were thicker and thicker than the first time. The blood stains on both cheeks became darker.
“Let’s end this now.”
It is a battle between masters where life can be lost even over a single piece of paper. Now that the gap has widened to this extent, the chances of Seo Liang beating him are much reduced than before.
That’s when Song Baek was preparing for his next attack.
Fazizik.
Dark lightning flashed over Seo-ryang’s back.
Zhong Zhenbaek’s face clearly hardened.
‘What about that lightning?’
For a moment, a truly terrible past came to mind. The image of a devil spewing black lightning full of only darkness, much thicker than me, came to mind.
The worst monster in the history of Murim, who single-handedly destroyed numerous buildings of the Uicheon Alliance, which were full of authority and history, and wiped out seventy percent of the Uicheon Alliance’s troops.
‘Heavenly Demon!!’
At that time, a dazzling light burst from Seoryang’s waist.
Flash! Kwaaaaaaaa!
Before I knew it, it was a luxurious longsword that sent the giant sword Taecheon flying far away. Although it was not as long as Taecheon, it was longer and thicker than any other long sword, and the sword had a golden dragon pattern engraved on it.
Zhong Zhenbaek’s face turned pale.
“How about that sword?!”
A sword that flew away somewhere along with the worst demon god that created history like never before that day.
That sword, which had been invisible before and during the fight, was finally visible now.
It’s a joke!!
The blue lightning flowing through the golden dragon gate was spraying terrible magical energy across the entire area within sight.
Suddenly,
Seoryang’s body began to tremble.
As the tremors became stronger, the threat of life in his body amplified exponentially.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Quang!
The deadly force that spewed out mixed with demonic energy and pulverized even distant trees and rocks.
It was on a different level from the life I had shown so far. It was clearly showing what kind of monster a person who had reached such a supreme state could become when he was truly tainted by the desire to kill.
Seoryang’s body, which had been trembling, suddenly shook! and stopped.
“⋯⋯. “If I kill the enemy… you have to make me stop…”
Talking to myself that I can’t even hear.
However, the last word was clearly heard in Zhengmeibaek’s ears.
“please.”
And that was the end.
Quaaaaaang!
“Gasp!”
Song Sang-baek opened his mouth in shock.
Just as he was about to burst, Seo-ryang, who had arrived right in front of him, was pouring out a murderous attack that was beyond imagination. Puh-
uh-uh! Puh-uh-uh! Kwaang! Kwaarrrrrrrr!!
The two people exchanged dozens of attacks in a short period of time. But
it was too one-sided to be called an attack.
Even in a situation where the skin was torn, the arms were broken, and most of the demonic treasure was torn off and blown away. Even though
the eyes were bloodshot, blood was gushing from the nose and mouth, and the demonic energy was weaker than life.
Xiliang’s attack . He didn’t stop. He didn’t care at all how the opponent attacked him or where he was aiming.
His goal was simply the death of Song Zheng Baek.
In the face of an opponent he should never kill, he became a monster and pushed forward to survive as a god. He entrusts his life to another absolute being and is determined to kill someone he should not kill.
Pow! Quack! Quad deuk!
Zheng Zhongbaek’s right arm was broken and a handful of muscle from his left leg was torn off.
‘This…!’
Fear finally rose on Zhong Zhengbaek’s face.
Seoryang was laughing even in a situation where it would not have been surprising if he collapsed at any moment. Even though he was vomiting blood, he was laughing like crazy and trying to tear his own body apart.
A monster in human form that I see for the second time in my life.
The only difference was that while the person I first saw was a monster that had become a god, the person I was seeing now was a monster that had become a devil.
“You monster!!”
Quack!
Jang Dong-geumbaek’s chief broke Seo-ryang’s collar bone.
At the same time, Xu Liang’s fist hit Zhong Zhenbaek’s chest.
Kwasik!
