Chapter 595 – King Yan’s Disciple 6 (16)
He was still heading towards Kaena without anyone being left behind, but everyone was on edge.
Should I say that the closer you get to Xinjiang, the more mana the same monster has?
Movements gradually became faster, and fighting methods began to become more systematic.
Should I say that it feels like dealing with wild monsters and then suddenly dealing with an army made up of monsters?
Minor wounds began to form on the bodies of the punitive force, and as they had to fight with more care, fatigue also increased.
‘The guys I decided to take down are actually easier to deal with.’
I guess I should say that I’m glad that Kaena isn’t at the level of fighting by taking control of her body.
After the battle was over, I spread my divinity to create a relatively safe place, and the punitive force finally began to catch their breath.
“Baekyeom (白炎), are you okay?”
“I am learning the Yeonyeomshingung (連炎神功) and thanks to you all, I am saving a lot of my stamina.”
Unless you were fighting while moving quickly from place to place, the Yeonyeom Shingung, which could absorb used heat and recover your strength, was clearly superior.
“I’m really jealous of that.”
Jo Jin-cheol, a ronin, said as he sat down.
Except for Jeong Hwan and Jang Mun-in of the Kunlun faction, the others looked similar to Jo Jin-cheol.
“Everyone’s fatigue has reached its peak. I think we need to rest for about a day…”
“I can survive the night. And since I don’t sleep much, a quick nap afterward is enough to recover.”
“Whoa. I’m sorry you feel like we’re a burden.”
“No. If we find a place like a cave with few places to be on guard, we can rest for a day.”
When recruiting Chojeoljeong Sang-sang, Jang Moon-in seemed overflowing with confidence, but it seemed like he couldn’t lie about his age.
After listening to the story, he said that he even saw Master defeating the Cheonma nearby.
Wouldn’t he be similar in age to King Tao, who is relatively younger among the Seven Kings? As I was thinking that, I heard a rustling sound from the forest.
The unmanned soldiers who were sitting in their seats immediately got up from their seats as they took out their weapons, and I also looked in the direction where the sound came from.
“Kwoaaaaa!!!”
The guy who suddenly appeared without being detected by my presence was a troll.
“Is that a jiangshi? What on earth… “
However, it was not an ordinary troll, but its skin was almost purple and bubbles were bubbling all over its body.
It is not that important to find out whether they are undead or a mutant born as a result of some experiment.
‘If you think about it, she’s even summoned the undead.’
She realized that it would be difficult to hastily determine which enemies Kaena could summon, as she had a record of summoning everything from the Dragon Emperor to the Death Knight and the Bone Dragon.
“I think it would be better to end it without approaching it. I will do it!”
They all had the ability to use sword energy, but they could not use sword energy carelessly.
The more energy you consume, the more tired you will be.
I gathered all my energy into both palms and fired them out continuously.
The five wheels of the burning fire.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The white force, whose power was amplified as it passed through five rings of heat, exploded at the purple troll.
“Kuuuuur!!!”
The guy who was hit by the flames screamed loudly as if he could feel the pain and twisted his whole body, but his wounds were healing even after being hit by the flames that weakened the troll’s regenerative power.
I thought this kind of blind attack wouldn’t work, so I recovered the heat and used the air gift to line them up in a straight line.
Yeomryun Fist (炎輪拳) Ten Wheel (十輪).
Kwahiah ahhhhh!
The white pillar that pierced the troll’s chest in one go was a bit thick, so it completely made the troll’s body disappear.
The troll’s head, arms, and legs fell to the ground, and there is no one here who would be disgusted by this.
“That’s terrible. Are you still moving even though you lost your body?”
However, the sight of the disembodied head and limbs floundering around was a bit strange to me.
“I need to move quickly. I need to rest a little sooner.”
“Sure. Everyone packs your bags.”
*
Since Xinjiang has many Rocky Mountains, fortunately we were able to find a place to rest.
We all unpacked our bags and closed our eyes in a place that wasn’t very spacious but had a narrow entrance.
I, the only one awake, closed my eyes and spread a wave of heat to see how close I was to Kaena.
Presence detection – flame.
I was able to confirm the monsters that filled the forest, but seeing as I couldn’t find the Kaena I was targeting, there was still a long way to go.
‘It feels like it’s not a big deal to be full of monsters.’
I decided to force the punitive force that had not yet fallen asleep inside the cave to sleep.
Skill Link-Boost
Dominate Shadow. Shadow Craft.
A sleep magic circle was carved so that the punitive force could not notice, and after making everyone fall asleep, the entrance was completely blocked by shadows.
“Let’s rest well and move quickly again tomorrow.”
Starting with the monsters that could feel the waves of heat due to the presence detection I had spread, more and more monsters were coming towards me.
I was limiting my power to some extent for the final battle, but I need to release some of my power to relieve the accumulated stress.
Because I purposely came to a narrow place where I could use the Yeonyeom Magic Technique.
Ten wheels of wave ring resonance.
Ten rings of heat resonated within the body, spreading hot heat throughout the body.
“Bwaaaaa aaaaa aaaaah!?
Should I call him a troll champion? Unlike the troll, which felt shallow compared to the ogre thanks to its slightly longer arms and legs, a troll with thick lines rushed in holding a club.
“I like the place. Can I use a little more effort?”
He ducked and quickly approached the running champion, concentrated the heat spreading throughout his body on his right hand, and threw an uppercut.
Yeomryun Fist (炎輪拳) Ten Wheel (十輪).
Kwahiah ahhhhh!
A pillar of white flame rose up to brighten the dark night sky and become a guidepost for monsters.
“Welcome.”
*
“I slept so well that I felt like all the sleep I had had all my life was trash.”
“If I have to sleep in this situation, I refuse.”
In the morning, the people of the punitive force began to wake up one by one.
Everyone clearly looked refreshed, probably because the sleep magic circle and the heat I gave to their bodies helped.
“Baekyeom, shouldn’t you get some rest too?”
“Okay. Now we will protect you.”
The punitive force that woke up first wanted me to rest, so I decided to sleep in as well.
“A few came during the night, and I took care of them. Then, I’ll take a break for a little while.”
I entered the cave, roughly leaned back against the wall, and closed my eyes.
When I opened my eyes, the punitive force was taking turns eating.
I should have been energized by the lighter load, but I felt tense even while eating because I felt like the final battle was getting closer.
“Han Sohyeop, has he woke up already?”
“Yes. I’m a little sleepy. Let’s finish eating.”
“Yes. A few small monsters came while you were sleeping, but the big ones haven’t arrived yet.”
“That’s really fortunate.”
Like the men of the punitive force who were eating, they took out their belongings and chewed the dry food.
As she felt her hunger subside, she felt a little uncomfortable as she calculated how far she would have to go to reach Kaena.
‘Are you really saying that all I did was kill a monster during the night?’
She raised a pillar of white flame and killed countless monsters drawn there.
When the morning came, no more monsters came, so I thought I was running out of the monsters I had summoned, but is it okay to think of that so positively?
‘This isn’t us going, but maybe they can come?’
Because I think she has a more impatient personality than I thought.
When she roughly stuffed the dry food into her mouth, got up and came out of the cave, I realized that my prediction was not wrong.
A huge shadow suddenly appeared in the sky.
When she looked up, she saw something large and round falling into the cave entrance.
“Everyone goes into the cave!”
“What on earth is that?”
When the punitive force that was standing guard outside rushed into the cave, I pulled out a surprise to protect the cave.
It wouldn’t be a bad idea to use force to prevent falling, but it must be to create ‘space’.
Kwaaaaang!!!
The shaking of the earth’s axis gave us an idea of how big and heavy something had fallen from the sky.
I felt like I was going to finish off the forest I had expanded while fighting all night, but only after the dust cleared did I realize that what had fallen from the sky was Hyeonmu.
‘That must be Hyeonmu’s shell.’
A woman was sitting on top of Hyeonmu, who had taken out a turtle’s head and legs and a snake’s tail from a hole in its body.
The woman was hardly an ordinary woman, and her entire body was covered in white fur.
Should we say that the ratio of humans to werewolves was slightly increased? In any case, it was clear that the shell of a white tiger was used.
“Han Xian… You’ve become a lot weaker? I’m disappointed.”
With those words, the white tiger pulled out its long claws and lunged at me.
I’m not sure about Hyeonmu’s shell, but it seemed like Kaena was directly controlling that white tiger.
“White Flame! Is that the king of monsters?!”
“They are the shells of Hyeonmu and Baekho! Baekho seems more dangerous, so I will deal with him!”
It would be difficult to deal with the huge Hyeonmudo subjugation force, but it still seemed better than dealing with the white tiger, which seemed to kill everyone in the blink of an eye.
Kwaang!
I deflected the attack of a white tiger charging at me while stepping on a wheelbarrow.
As I stood facing the white tiger on the very wide shell of Hyeonmu, the tail of Hyeonmu and the head of a snake glared at me and lashed out with their tongues.
“I think it would have been much more convenient to come alone, but why did you come here with such a tail? Because you need someone to inform your master of your death? I’m sure the King of Flames would sense with his intuition that his disciple is dying, right?”〈 Br〉
Kaena seemed to already know what I was thinking about bringing the punitive force.
Because I need someone to prove that I defeated it and let others know.
With that desire in mind, we set off together from Kunlun Mountain, but as we talked along the way, we got to know each other a little better.
“Because I want to show them the moment of victory.”
“Hmm. That would be impossible.”
“Shhh!”
When Kaena spoke using Baekho’s mouth, Hyeonmu’s snake head also made a hissing sound.
“Kaena, at least say that after you get her body. You can never stop me by infusing energy into her shell.”
Wave wheel resonance, infinite wheel.
