## Chapter 990 – 990. The Ascent Of Radiant Light
“What’s the story behind Hwangbo Ga-hye’s engagement to Oh Ji-mu, the young master of the Three Severance Sect?”
“Isn’t it obvious? Hwangbo Ga-hye was sold off.”
The cloth in her hand soon moved between her thighs. Like other women in this world, her pussy was hairy. The contrast between the wet black hair and the white semen made it look even more lewd.
Swish, swish.
The cloth wiping her pussy continued to move. There was so much semen inside her that it didn’t stop easily.
“What about Oh Ji-mu?”
“The Wind Sword Young Master of the Three Severance Sect. That’s Oh Ji-mu’s nickname. As befits the young master of a promising sect, he’s arrogant and loves to play around. He’s also famous for making over thirty marriage proposals to the Shandong Jewel, Hwangbo Ga-hye. People’s opinions of him aren’t bad.”
“He looked like a nobody when I saw him.”
“That’s probably how he seems to Young Master Seong. Oh Ji-mu hasn’t caused any major incidents. He stays within the bounds of common sense. Plus, he’s handsome and a genius in martial arts.”
“Genius? He’s not as good as me.”
“Compared to Young Master Seong, everyone else should just die. I really hate saying this myself… but Young Master Seong is an unparalleled genius.”
“Hmm.”
I nodded. A beautiful woman’s praise pleases me and my alter ego.
Whether she knew my mood or not, Gongbi was scraping out the semen from her pussy with a frustrated expression. Did she know that I was right behind her, less than a meter away from her ass?
‘I get it! Now that I see it, she’s trying to seduce me by showing off her pussy and anus!’
I watched as her pussy gushed out semen and waited. Once all that semen was gone, I’d fill it up again.
“So, the conclusion is that Oh Ji-mu is a solid and good guy?”
“I told you earlier, Hwangbo Ga-hye was sold off. Why would she be sold off? Oh Ji-mu pressured the Hwangbo family with the power of the Three Severance Sect. It’s not bad for the Three Severance Sect either, as they can gain legitimacy by connecting with the Hwangbo family.”
“Then, is Hwangbo Ga-hye’s entry into the Myriad Martial Tower because of Oh Ji-mu?”
“No. I don’t know what those two think of each other, but their entry into the Myriad Martial Tower is for different reasons. In the first place, the Myriad Martial Tower is a tower of opportunity for wanderers and small-to-medium-sized sects. Even those small-to-medium-sized sects don’t challenge the Myriad Martial Tower often. Do you know why?”
“Because it’s dangerous.”
The Myriad Martial Tower is dangerous. From the first floor, it was a scene of slaughter. Would a prominent sect want to send their carefully nurtured disciples to a dangerous place like the Myriad Martial Tower? Absolutely not.
‘If you send someone without skills to the Myriad Martial Tower, they’re likely to die, and if you send someone with skills and something goes wrong, the loss is too great. The entry condition of being under 50 years old is too much.’
It’s not high risk, high return. It’s high, high, high risk, high return.
Moreover, prestigious sects have little to gain from the Myriad Martial Tower.
Martial arts? A prestigious sect isn’t prestigious for no reason. They’re called prestigious because they have excellent martial arts.
Elixirs? Sects of a certain size all cultivate elixirs.
Mystic weapons? They can be bought with money. There’s no reason to take the risk.
The Myriad Martial Tower was hell. If you endure hell, you’ll become a master, but if you can’t, you’ll just die.
“Hwangbo Ga-hye’s goal must be elixirs. If the Hwangbo family’s fortunes have declined, the supply of elixirs would be difficult.”
“For righteous sects, elixirs are almost essential for famous martial arts. Hwangbo Ga-hye is an ambitious woman.”
“Yeah. She’s kind of a tough woman.”
“Oh Ji-mu’s goal is martial arts. It’s true that the Three Severance Sect is rising, but they don’t have the fundamental, excellent martial arts like the Hwangbo family. Maybe his goal is to conquer the Myriad Martial Tower? The martial art offered in this Myriad Martial Tower, the Nine Moon Spirit Sword Technique, is no ordinary sword technique. Other famous people must be aiming for the Nine Moon Spirit Sword Technique too… didn’t you see them?”
“I don’t know. There weren’t many noticeable guys. Aren’t they all dead?”
“……This Myriad Martial Tower seems to be brutally difficult.”
Gongbi’s pussy cleaning was finished. Her pussy was clean. And I grabbed her ass from behind and thrust my dick into her.
Squish.
Even though the semen was scraped out, the walls of her vagina were soaked with vaginal fluids.
“Kyaaaah?!”
“Heh heh. Feels good, huh?”
“Y-Young Master Seong…! Hnnng, haaaah!”
Gongbi cried out in pleasure. It was a body that had just been in my arms and experienced countless climaxes. Once a body has heated up to the limit, it doesn’t cool down easily.
“Hnnng, haa, haaang!”
I pinched her nipples and clitoris with my fingers. The effect was outstanding. Gongbi even wet herself as she fell into the depths of climax.
***
The trial on the 10th floor of the Myriad Martial Tower was to survive for a week. It was different from the survival trial on the 5th floor. This time, you had to survive against assassins who were after your life. Moreover, it wasn’t a group trial but an individual one.
I turned my gaze to Hwangbo Ga-hye. If something happened to Hwangbo Ga-hye in this trial, I felt like I would go crazy. Hwangbo Ga-hye was calm. There was no anxiety on her face.
‘Is she confident?’
Then, I looked at Seong Ji-gon and Jeong-bin. Jeong-bin was in the realm of stubbornness, so he would pass the 10th floor without much difficulty.
“Yujin, don’t worry. It’s not like I’ve been just playing around.”
Seong Ji-gon smiled confidently and raised his fist. Jeong-bin nodded beside him.
“Amitabha. This humble monk can vouch for Young Master Seong Ji-gon’s skills. His efforts will not betray him.”
I handed Seong Ji-gon a detoxifying stone.
“It’s a detoxifying stone. Take it. Don’t get poisoned by the assassins.”
“Will assassins use poison in a trial?”
“The Myriad Martial Tower is full of people who don’t care if you die. There’s no reason not to use it, right?”
“Ah, I guess so. I’ll take it gratefully.”
I felt a sparkling gaze. It was Jeong-bin. The monk was looking at me with anticipation. It was obvious what he wanted.
I threw him a hamburger. It was a warm hamburger bought from an ordinary fast-food restaurant.
‘This monk has never eaten a hamburger before.’
Jeong-bin tore open the wrapper as I taught him and took a big bite of the hamburger.
“Ooooooh!?”
Jeong-bin’s body glowed brightly with golden light, and white light emanated from his eyes.
“Mimi~!!”
And he spurted out white liquid.
Fortunately, he was wearing a monk’s robe, so the tragedy of it splattering on me didn’t happen.
‘If that happened, I’d cut his throat and kill him immediately.’
Anyway, we each challenged the 10th floor trial.
I was guided by a soldier to a place with a small hut.
“You must survive in this dwelling for a week. We’ve put a rope around the hut. If you cross that rope, the trial will end immediately. If you want to give up, cross the rope.”
“Are those the only rules? Can I kill the assassins?”
“It doesn’t matter. Whether you kill the assassins or negotiate with them, you just need to survive for a week.”
“So, I can negotiate.”
“……”
I had no intention of negotiating with the assassins. If they attacked, I would just kill them.
“My guidance ends here. I’ll be leaving now.”
The soldier left. I opened the door of the hut.
Swish!
An assassin wearing black clothes and holding a dagger rushed at me, aiming for my neck.
‘A split second.’
The assassin’s movements slowed down. I hadn’t felt any killing intent until I opened the door. He was a top-notch assassin skilled at hiding his killing intent.
‘But I’ve been suspicious since I entered the 10th floor. There’s no way they’d suddenly give me a house. I even suspected that the soldier who guided me was an assassin, but it seems that wasn’t the case.’
From the moment the soldier said that the 10th floor trial was about surviving for a week against assassins, the assassins were at a disadvantage.
I grabbed the assassin’s wrist and twisted his arm. I took the dagger and stabbed it into the assassin’s neck.
“……!”
The assassin’s eyes rolled back. I threw the corpse out of the house carelessly. At the same time, I spread my senses. I carefully checked places where someone could hide, such as under the bed, inside the closet, and under the table. There were no other assassins.
‘There’s food in the corner. Meat and vegetables. It’d be perfect to grill.’
It was too obvious. That’s why it was suspicious.
‘Assassins are all about poison.’
I threw all the food out the window. Then, I sat on a chair. I thought that the assassins wouldn’t come for a while.
‘Assassins who could attack at any moment. There’s nothing more unsettling and stressful than that. They’ll make me as anxious as possible and then come to assassinate me on the last day.’
Who am I? I’m the one who ran a maid assassination squad. Although Yuria did most of the work, I received reports on how they assassinated.
‘If I were an assassin… I would have launched a missile.’
The boring week didn’t happen. I had auto-progress. A week passed in an instant, and it was the last day.
As I thought, there were no assassination attempts for a week.
‘It was exactly as I thought. Praise my high intelligence!’
I was grinning when it happened. Assassins appeared from all directions. They broke through the front door, windows, and walls and rushed toward me. There were 12 assassins in total.
I welcomed the assassins with open arms. There was too much time to not prepare.
“Welcome to my home! And now, get out!”
Stormbreaker became armor and instantly covered my body, and the bombs I had set up in advance exploded.
Boom! Boom!
In the midst of the spectacular explosions, only I was unharmed. I walked out of the hut confidently and faced the soldier I had seen a week ago.
“…Is that armor a mystic weapon?”
“Yes. Isn’t it cool?”
“It is cool. Isn’t the armor uncomfortable?”
“It’s all prepared, so it’s not uncomfortable when you wear it. And like this… I can take it off anytime.”
As soon as I deactivated Stormbreaker, the soldier extended a spear toward me. A blue sword aura flickered at the tip of the spear. I blocked the spear with Stormbreaker, which was still covering my hand, and swung my fist at the soldier’s chest. The soldier’s armor crumpled, and blood poured from his mouth.
“Cough! Did you know….”
“Didn’t you say the trial was over?”
“…The 10th floor trial is over. Congratulations.”
The soldier died on the spot.
I waited in that state for a few minutes, and then soldiers appeared.
“Young Master Seong Yujin. I will guide you to the 11th floor. Have you decided what reward you will choose?”
“I’m thinking of an elixir.”
“The elixirs given from the 10th floor will be satisfactory for Young Master Seong.”
***
I chose the golden carp’s inner core as my reward. There were many other good elixirs, but… I instinctively chose it because it was said to be good for stamina.
‘…I have enough stamina, but it was instinct, so I couldn’t help it.’
It wasn’t a bad choice since I could absorb spiritual energy.
I met Seong Ji-gon and Jeong-bin. Seong Ji-gon’s top was stained with blood, but his face wasn’t bad. Jeong-bin was the same as always. Seong Ji-gon also chose the golden carp’s inner core as his reward.
“Yujin, you chose this too, right? It seems like this is the best elixir among the 10th floor rewards.”
Jeong-bin was chewing on some strange-looking weeds.
“Amitabha…. This humble monk made the wrong choice. I didn’t know the root of the White Eating Wood Ghost that had lived for a thousand years would taste so bad….”
“What’s a White Eating Wood Ghost?”
“It’s a white tree ghost. It bears red fruit every 30 years, and the fruit is known to be heavenly, but I didn’t know the root would taste so bad. Haa….”
We chatted. Most of the topics were about the 10th floor trial.
Seong Ji-gon said he was tormented by three assassins all week, and Jeong-bin said he faced assassins who came every day. The Myriad Martial Tower sent different assassins to each person.
Soon, other participants also ascended to the 11th floor.
About 3,000 people. These were the ones who had passed the 10th floor trial. The riffraff had all been weeded out.
‘Fortunately, Hwangbo Ga-hye is safe. I don’t like that guy named Oh Ji-mu being next to her, though….’
Soldiers rushed in. At their center were a seasoned general and an old woman. The old woman exuded a noble aura. She was no ordinary old woman. Just looking at her made my body tense up naturally.
“Yu, Yujin. It’s noisy. Please be quiet.”
“Huh? I’ve been keeping my mouth shut since earlier. What are you talking about?”
“Zzzzzzz. Zzzzzzzzz…. It’s too noisy. Is that not your sound, Yujin?”
Seong Ji-gon looked around. Then, he lowered his head and smiled blankly.
“……It was me.”
