Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation-Chapter 280: Hidden Truth Corp’s Crisis (4)

The window which appeared before his eyes did not stop there.

<You have learned a special skill.>

An unexpected skill popped out. It was the Red Heavenly Demonic Arts.

*Red Heavenly Demonic Arts Skill Table* [Heaven And Land Great Source Arts]: ↓↓↓ A or B

This.

The sight stood out in Seol-Hwi’s eyes.

Not just the martial arts, but he also acquired special skills.

“The system was designed… is this some form of escape method?”

There were supposed to be certain requirements that needed to be met in order to learn the opponent’s skills. Mainly, he had to see or experience all of the techniques of the opponent with his own eyes.

But this time he did not need to go through such a complicated procedure. It only took just three attacks.

That was all he experienced. However, after interpreting the meaning within it in various ways, he naturally learned of its flow.

Above all, the analogy that the source of the Red Heavenly Demonic Arts was in line with the Red Flow Divine Arts was right, and the method of breathing and cultivation was not so different from a normal demonic art.

To be honest, he tried it because it felt like it was worth a shot, but he was not sure whether it would succeed or not.

“It is my turn this time.”

At the words Seol-Hwi mumbled the elder flinched for a second. It was the same as the one before. The guy he thought was dead was back to talking to them again, so they ended up panicking.

However, no matter what he thought or did, Seol-Hwi was able to use the martial arts.

Swish!

The technique spread out a little faster, and it was because he reduced its area of effect, increased the internal energy used, and changed it to the last form of the martial arts. The method of it moving up and down and wide was changed to a straight stabbing movement.

“Kuaaak!”

The elder could not even react. Seol-Hwi’s method to unleash the technique was quite swift, but the adaptation of this technique felt quite absurd, but since Seol-Hwi was back from the dead, the opponent was too shocked to respond.

Tuk. Grrr.

And the attack went down his throat, with his own demonic arts.

Slash. Thud.

The headless body fell to the ground, with blood gushing. One by one, the eyes of the elders and the escorts gathered there simply stared.

At first, they simply had looks of uncertainty, but they could no longer deny what their eyes saw Seol-Hwi doing.

Elder Naeng Ack-bi, bit his lip.

“We cannot take him lightly any longer.”

The elders around nodded, thinking of the vicious tricks of this opponent.

The man pretended to be unskilled and incompetent, and then used a plan to end the lives of fellow elders. Because of that, they were flustered that two elders were killed by a member of the Hidden Truth Corps.

Of course, things will change from now on, because everyone knew how to deal with him.

“Elder, let me go.”

“We will solve this issue.”

After a slight exchange of glances, the escorts moved ahead, and these were not ones who were superior to the elders.

But the opponent was now using tricks, and because they could not guess what the extent of his strength was, they stepped in.

In the first place, the position of escort was for such a time. Even at the cost of their own life, exposing all of the enemy’s hidden abilities would allow them to maintain an advantage.

If they could prevent him from holding onto his trump cards, then the elders would be able to handle the rest.

Asasak

Soon all the guards, including the elders, began to surround Seol-Hwi. There were 12 of them.

“Is it a full on attack now?”

Said Seol-Hwi as he calmed himself down like he had been waiting for such a moment.

“Whatever your tricks are! You cannot hide them anymore!”

“Get down on your knees right now and beg for mercy!”

Each of them said something and threatened him, but Seol-Hwi looked at them with an incredulous expression on his face.

“No matter how difficult the situation was…”

Their eyes—

Their movement—

Everything was clearly visible. It was so easy to predict it all that it was rather suspicious. No, maybe this was how it was supposed to be in the first place.

Because of the adjustment of the system, the realm of his skills fell, but Seol-Hwi was supposed to be at the Supreme Demon level.

Among them, the experience and realization which was different from start to finish. Although it looked similar to the guards around, their skills would be different.

“You all too?”

Swords flew in from all sides along with that. However, the attack did not reach Seol-Hwi’s body.

Swish! Slash!

Seol-Hwi was dodging all the blades in the process of making countless predictions. He would block their swords which blocked the movements.

When there was space, he would move ahead and attack. Sometimes, counterattacking, being offensive and such, he made sure to nullify the attempts of the enemy.

Crack!

Then he stopped moving and suddenly jumped out and decapitated a person.

“Kiiik…!”

Was it stimulated by seeing the guard whose head fell off? Their movements which had been so cautious and passive up until this point now became more aggressive.

From now.

Seol-Hwi’s eyes widened.

It was not a close-range fight with them, but more like one where he would measure the distance and attack precisely.

There was not even a situation in which the sword which stabbed from all the sides were entangled with each other.

It was quite a proper training session. In this case, it was not easy to read the flow.

Pik. Pik.

There was a sharp dagger which grazed his face in an instant. When Seol-Hwi turned his head to one side, there was the escort holding a dagger.

Even assassination…

Seol-Hwi turned around and began to leap.

It was because there was little to gain from fighting against them in a normal fight. Naturally, the enemies had no intention of letting him escape.

Swish! Swish. Pak!

Assassin needles continued to be thrown wherever Seol-Hwi was. And a bunch of sword techniques came too. He changed directions, and each moment it all continued to follow him. In the end, Seol-Hwi could not go too far and rolled on the ground as he stopped.

Swish! Sack!

Blocking the sword approaching right in front, he moved again.

“Kuak!”

Shih! Shhh! Kang!

Numerous sword cuts were dangerous, but no matter how brilliant the assassin needles were, there was no need to deal with them.

Chak! Chak!

The sword energy associated with them turned more and more annoying. His clothes were torn with his skin accumulating cuts, and shortly after, he had large cuts to his thighs and shoulders.

Puaaak! Shhh!

The bleeding would consume more stamina as they continued to gnaw down Seol-Hwi.

It was just a matter of time until he was in a situation where he could not even lift his sword.

Not yet.

Still, Seol-Hwi shook his head. He had the last pill in the Golden Belt. However, the pill should not be used just yet. The things he had used so far had, strictly speaking, played the role of just healing.

It was great to instantly save him from death, but it did not increase his stamina or internal energy.

However, the Great Virtue Pill, this was a wonderful pill. It was a pill which the Wudang Sect treasured and had the possibilities of solving all the restrictions which Seol-Hwi was going through now.

Even so, the reason Seol-Hwi did not use it was to wait for a better opportunity, and he decided now might be that time.

Kiiik!

Another assassin weapon flew in and landed on the shoulder. And the weapon moved right in front of his eyes.

<You have been poisoned.> <The poison immunity helps to neutralize the poison which has invaded the body.>

“Fortunately, it seems that the poison skills within are still working…”

He spoke in a relaxed manner, but his voice was turning weak.

Shhh

While the enemy’s attacks got stronger, it seemed like it would not be strange for Seol-Hwi to collapse any moment.

How much…

He barely managed to turn his head and check the numbers as he was unable to breathe.

822… 821…

To his displeasure, there was still a long way to go.

No. I need to change my approach.

Seol-Hwi bit his lip. Along with that, his body shook.

His body which had been targeted had been moving delicately, but now, suddenly, his movements had become crude. One of the guards blew through the air.

“Huh!”

Woong!

The human eye did not adapt well to such changes. Exactly, it was also confusing just to process it.

Seol-Hwi’s body, which had been moving swiftly, suddenly came to a standstill, and the sword he had lifted moved.

Tuk!

The head of the escort was cut, and it was an absurd death.

However, the sword energy moved right away.

“Kuak!”

Slash!

Slashed on the back right away, Seol-Hwi rolled on the ground. His whole body was covered in mud and blood, but he held out his sword against the sword energy, and the speed of his movements swiftly changed.

“What is this!”

“What are you doing!”

The elders who had been watching stepped back and screamed. Surely the opponent was just one man, and judging from his movements, he should be out of stamina now. He was a fish waiting to be caught.

However, with each movement, the escorts were being taken down, and now just six of them were left.

“Well, do not be like that. It has to end now…”

Kuk.

Defeating one more escort, Seol-Hwi sword moved swiftly.

He fell to the side and breathed heavily.

“Haha! Haha!”

Now he had reached his limit, he could not hold on any longer.

Great Virtue Pill…

In the end, he was thinking about the last resort, the Great Virtue Pill.

Pipip!

“Kuak!”

“Ack!’

The assassin needles came out of nowhere. At that, two guards were hit in the back and died. The elders and escorts immediately retreated at the sudden attack.

“Commander!”

“Are you fine!”

From afar, a new group appeared, and Seol-Hwi crouched in the confusion as he checked both who had appeared and their clothes.

“…You, Seo Ryeong?”

“Commander! Are you alright!?”

It was the scouting team.

Was it planned for them to meet up here or was this luck?

It was them. It was all of those who followed Seol-Hwi in the most loyal manner in the past.

Yong Jin, Jeok Song…

Even at the escort troop level, their skills were outstanding compared to other members of the Hidden Truth Corps.

In other words, they killed two of the escorts with a single blow. What was even more surprising was that their movement did not feel very different from the way they moved in the past.

It was as if they had been granted a new chance.

“Ha, is this the new one?”

“Back off you worms.”

“You are making us use our hands.”

The surviving escorts retreated, and the impatient elders reappeared. 𝑓𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸𝑒𝘣𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝑚

“What, is this?”

“Why are you backing off? It isn’t done yet.”

Chak!

The number of enemies increased.

Now there were not only those who were pursuing Seol-Hwi a while back, but new elders had come into the fold. It was now a total of five elders

…What happened? Can it just be numbers?

Seol-Hwi felt nervous now. The party that was pursuing him was supposed to have five elders. Killing two, there should have been three left, but now there were five?

[With Cheon Miryo joining in, the fighting power of the Heavenly Demon will increase. In addition, the existence of Cheon Miryo will change the future little by little.]

Right…

Memories popped into the mind.

Now that he thought about it, the future changed due to Cheon Miryo. It was not strange that the number of elders suddenly increased.

“Hehehe…. No, not yet? How much time will be wasted for one man?”

And one of those appeared making the eyes of Seol-Hwi tremble.

…Wang Mo-ryeok?

It was the Supreme Demon Warrior the AI fought in the past.

He did not think it would come this fa,r and the situation felt hopeless.

“This. Something seems to have gone wrong…”

It was then—

<The duration is over.> <All negative effects on the body vanish.>

“What!?”

Seol-Hwi doubted his eyes.

Until a second ago, he should have had a lot of time left, but now it was already finished? He wondered what the hell was happening…

In an instant it crossed his mind.

No, because of the escorts?

If there was a change, that was the only possibility. Perhaps it was because he was rewarded each time one of the enemies was taken down.

And with each enemy taken down, the duration would decrease by a certain amount.

“Commander… What is this? Commander, we too…”

“Hmm…”

Seo Ryeong’s face hardened at the words of Yorim. Not just the number of enemies, it felt like each of them were not opponents who could be faced so easily.

In particular, the one there—

The extremely skilled warrior of the Third Disciple, Wang Mo-ryeok.

Tuk

Then, someone tapped on her shoulder.

“Forget it. I will handle it from here.”

“Commander? Your condition is…”

“Ah, I am all better now.”

Seol-Hwi chucked at the question of Seo Ryeong.

<Great Virtue Pill is being used.> <Stamina and internal energy will increase significantly. All senses are back to normal.>

His field of view widened. As his strength recovered, his eyes turned clearer, and his body felt energized. Of course, it was not the level of internal energy that reached the supreme energy, but this was enough.

Uh?

In the midst of that, an unexpected situation happened. It was because of the system window in front of him.

<Due to the Taiji Energy, you can change the nature of your energy as desired.>

The nature of energy can be changed.

Which side would you like to take? ?Supreme Master ?Supreme Demon

The option “Supreme Master” was there.
