151. 17th Floor (3)
―Would you like to learn Blood Demon Art?
There was a demonic nature in the Blood Heaven Demon Sword that magically scattered red energy.
Do I have to say it’s a quality that attracts people without knowing why?
To be honest, I was shaken for a moment, but then I shook my head.
“…I don’t like it.”
―…Why are you refusing? You can become stronger by learning blood demon magic. If you’ve reached this level, you should know how excellent the technology of the Moorim dimension is.
“…I know that. Compared to the minor dimension, the skills of other dimensions are superior.”
―Then why are you rejecting it?
“But I have no intention of learning martial arts properly.”
This is not just to say that it will come, but it has a legitimate basis.
“I heard that if you learn the simbeop, the mana in your body is converted into an energy with the characteristic of internal energy.”
―No, to whom else… No, no. Rather, there is no such thing as a simbeop that you have learned separately. Then it’s okay…
“I know because I’ve learned martial arts from the manager, but if you form a specific martial arts with your Sim, there will be restrictions other than performing specific martial arts.”
-…Yes. But you are mistaken now. Blood Demon Sacred Art isn’t a skill for some idiot, it’s okay to give up the martial arts you’ve learned so far.
“Is there a better martial art than this?”
I pulled out the celestial sword from my waist and reproduced one of the celestial sword-type herbivores.
It was a swordsmanship learned in the last showdown with Namgoonghyeok.
Whoops!
After the sword roamed in the air for a while, a cry of astonishment flowed from Damcheonwu.
―Changcheon sword type!? How the hell did he learn the Namgung family’s teachings! Such nonsense…!
“Somehow, I learned it. Well, I wasn’t formally trained.”
―What the hell is that… Damn it. I didn’t know that my talent for martial arts would be so outstanding.
“If you tell me about blood demon magic without the simbeop, I will learn it.”
―….
“If you want to tell me about it, you just need to demonstrate swordsmanship. Gu-gyeol is not necessary because I have no confidence to understand it anyway.”
―…Looking at it now, I’m glad I’m not from Moorim. If you were from Murim, you wouldn’t have anything to say even if you were killed a long time ago.
“…”
I was silent at that, and Dam Chun-wu clicked his tongue as if he was dumbfounded.
―…Then, if you improve your mental method appropriately, would you learn the Blood Demon Artifact as a disciple of the principal?
“I think that would be a bit difficult too…”
―No, why are you refusing again this time!
“Isn’t being a disciple something that only one person can have?”
―What is that…
“I already have a teacher. I made a bond between the manager and the teacher.”
―Haa, really, all the opportunities to teach are being taken away by some mischievous things… The
red energy that fluttered from the Blood Heaven Demon Sword cooled down and the blade trembled.
―I wondered if he was going to reap his disciples after a long time… It’s absurd. Then I can’t tell you martial arts either. Blood demon magic is useless if there is no simbeop.
It seemed like he was disappointed, but that was me too.
The martial arts learned by the challenger who reached beyond the 40th floor made me covet.
I wondered if I shouldn’t covet it because it’s a martial art that says you can’t use it unless you
learn the blood magic trick.
‘I know one more person from the Blood Demon Religion.’
The ‘defeated successor of the Blood Demon God’ who sponsored the Blood Demon God in the past is also from the Blood Demon God.
“But even though I couldn’t learn the Blood Demon Spirit Gong, I learned the simbeom called the Blood Demon Spirit Gong.”
So, I thought maybe I could learn the martial arts of the blood demon god with blood cheonshimgong.
―…What is that? How can you learn something that only the successors of the Bo main school can learn?
“This, too, happened to be a good thing to learn.”
―… Huh. I’m really dumbfounded. I don’t know how the heck he learned it.
“So please tell me the answer or not whether it is possible or not.”
Are you really lucky in this situation?
―…It should be possible.
Apparently, the guess was right.
***
As a result, blood demon magic was not a proper martial art.
‘It’s more like magic or magic rather than martial arts.’
Excluding a few trivial abilities, the main point was this when looking at the main abilities.
Wow…!
The Blood Demon God has the absurd ability to replace mana with blood.
However, that’s not all, the blood generated by magic strengthens the body.
Like the seeker of fresh blood, he had the ability to completely remove the fatigue dwelling in his body.
Of course, there was also a penalty saying that excessive use of it would lead to mental contamination… “The power
of ‘Bright Scenery Index’ is strongly
activated.”
“…is this true martial arts?”
No, apart from military service, it was useless to talk about quitting school.
Of course, if I hadn’t had skills like Blood Seeker or Gray Blood, the word “new technology” wouldn’t have been a waste.
Because both are skills that are used as main powers that show crazy efficiency.
However, I had learned not only the seeker of fresh blood, but also the gray blood.
‘I never thought I would have all of the abilities that are close to the essence of the Blood Demon Magic.’
I already had all the merits that the Blood Demon Goddess could give me, but there was no way I could feel the attraction.
―Hyeolcheonsimgong itself is based on martial arts, so it is inevitable that it is not like martial arts.
“…Not only that, but I don’t have any useful abilities at all other than blood replacement.”
―This guy! Aside from that, there are so many excellent martial arts and sword techniques…!
“So are they better than the swordsmanship I showed you?”
―It’s like you’re gritting your teeth so you don’t lose a single word…!
“So you’re saying it’s better than my swordsmanship?”
―This bastard speaks cowardly!
“It’s not cowardice, it’s the truth.”
Of course, it has no value as a real martial art, but the blood substitution itself was quite interesting.
‘Wouldn’t it be a pretty good combination if I doubled the amount of magic with Yonginhwa, eliminated the magic consumption itself with Punishment, and even used Blood Demon God’s Blood Substitution?’
I had a hunch that maybe I could use the skills of the seeker of fresh blood or the skills of gray blood.
However, punishment itself can only be used against demons and monsters, so it may not be a combo that can be used unconditionally, but…
it’s a good enough ability.
“Well, it wasn’t very useful as a martial art, but…”
―Stop it, you devilish bastard! How far are you going to frame the blood demon god!
“I didn’t say anything wrong, so is there any slander?”
―….
“Accept reality.”
―This bastard…!
After a brief quarrel, Damcheonwu spoke in a limp voice as if exhausted.
-…ha. The martial arts of the principal do not help you. good night. Then, instead of martial arts, I will tell you the information I can give you.
Then, Dam Chun-wu told me various information.
I was able to hear a lot of detailed information about the Moorim dimension that I had never heard before, as well as about the dimensions of Ares and Qalian.
As a result, one thing was certain.
‘…The earth level challengers have to climb the tower with these monsters from now on?’
I’ve heard of Sangvis Sangvis before.
After the 20th floor, they will compete with challengers from other dimensions.
However, after hearing about the other dimension from Dam Chun-wu, I was able to know for sure.
A challenger from the Earth plane will not be able to properly climb the tower.
The same goes for those who were originally hunters, as well as the challengers who are newly reborn as strong people.
If you didn’t grow up going through all the battles like me, you won’t be able to handle your enemies from now on.
But…
―You are at stake right now, so what does the other challenger have to do with the trend?
Dam Chun-woo said as if it was not worth worrying about.
―Challengers must have skills appropriate to their original floor number. If you don’t have it, you’ll just die as a reward for your gaekgi. that is the top
Anyway, those who climb the tower from now on are not forced to climb, it is just a choice.
And if you choose to climb the tower, you will also have to endure the cost of performing guest skills.
We agreed to a certain extent on that part.
“….”
After all, I am not a good seller enough to worry about others.
As soon as I remembered that fact, the sense of responsibility completely disappeared.
-What are you going to do now? There doesn’t seem to be any more reward, so are you going to take a break? Or are you going to talk to the manager?
“None of the two.”
―Then what are you planning to do?
“I will climb the tower.”
―…Right now?
“yes.”
Dam Chun-wu said something absurd, but I halfway listened to his words and activated the trial command. “
Are you going to
accept the 17th floor trial?”
That would be the case…
“Because I have to be strong.”
Because he was determined to become stronger.
I will become so strong that no one can stand against me.
Even if it’s a god, I won’t be oppressed.
So I decided not to accept the quest for a while.
Maybe it’s because you can’t get any additional rewards like < Savior of the End >, the quest given by the hero.
He had no intention of taking a risk and doing a quest right now.
‘I have to focus on my growth now.’
So…
“I enter the 17th floor of the Tower of Trials.”
Now it’s time to climb the tower again.
***
「Enter the 17th floor of the Tower of Trials.」
「Difficulty – Hard」
「The theme of the ordeal is ‘annihilation’.」
「I hope that the contestant will have a satisfactory result at the end of the penance chosen.」
This stage of the ordeal was enveloped in darkness where nothing could be seen.
I couldn’t feel anything because my senses and even my senses were paralyzed.
―…It’s tricky. I never thought I would end up in a place like this. You’d better be careful. You never know when or where you might be attacked.
That’s the right advice.
In this situation, you never know where the enemy will appear.
But I had the ability to match my senses or senses.
「The skill ‘Fire Dragon’s Eye’ is activated.]
It was the Fire Dragon’s Eye skill.
As if seeing the world from the perspective of a camera, the surrounding information was instantly imprinted in my head.
and.
‘The stage is a fairly large cave and there are about six people.’
「Starting the 17th floor trial.」
「Remaining time – 7 days」
「Trial breakthrough condition-Destroy all enemies within the remaining time and reach the end of Heaven’s Armed Forces」
「Trial failure condition-Challenger death or remaining time remaining」 End of time”
“Trial Breakthrough Reward – Great Return (S+)”
“Trial Failure Penalty – Death”
Uuuh—!
At the same time as the ordeal start message came to mind, a brilliant group of lights was created in the center of the cave.
Then, those whom I knew in advance as Hwaryong’an revealed a new type.
At the same time…
[The skill ‘Hwaryong’s Eye’ is activated.]
As soon as the light was turned on, the man in the black uniform swung his sword from behind silently.
Looking at the outfit, he looks like a typical Taoist, perhaps on a stage set in the Moorim dimension.
‘It’s ridiculous.’
However, a person who looked like a swordsman was throwing a sword attack from the back of the head…
Like a psychopathic Moorim challenger, this stage didn’t seem normal.
I would never have thought to use a swordsman that excluded presence to the point where I wouldn’t even be taken aback by a subject who looked like a swordsman.
‘Really, every time I see the Moorim dimension, I wonder how harsh the world is.’
Of course, for me, who had dealt with the Murim people many times, it was meaningless to attack from a blind spot.
I recognized the outline of the sword with the fire dragon eye and lowered my waist to avoid the sword attack.
self.
The sword of a man like a master who has lost his point passes through empty space.
“…Where!?”
He was quite taken aback when he was momentarily out of sight of the Taoist.
that was his end.
Chow!
「You killed the shaman sword Lee Jong-hak.」
「Selected and killed a strong enemy.」
「All stats temporarily increase by +1 on the 17th floor stage.」
「Destroy all enemies.」
An unknown message came to mind, but I was nervous There was no time to write .
「Absorbed the spirit of ‘Lee Jong-Hak’, a member of Murim.」
「Proficiency increased by 0.04%.」
Right away, absorbed the spirit of Lee Jong-Hak and inserted the Blood Heaven Demon Sword into the corpse to activate the Blood Ceremony.
「The True Blood Demon Sword (A)’s exclusive effect, ‘Blood Eating’, is activated.」 「By
absorbing the blood of the Murim ‘Xeno-Hak’, the item’s grade grows to A-class (3241/4800). 」
It gave a pretty good reward for dying easily, but I couldn’t enjoy it.
That would be the case too…
“Elder Lee Jong-hak! How can this happen…! bloke! I will not forgive you!”
“Namu Amitabha…! I couldn’t believe there was a magician among them!”
“Ha ha ha! Could there be a monster that could kill that old man! It’s fun, it’s fun!”
Because before I knew it, other people were pointing at me and acting as if they were going to fight.
―…The Volcano Sect, the Shaolin Temple, the Shaman faction, the Heavenly Demon Singh, the Black Society. What a chaotic combination. Perhaps the ones you killed now are non-partisans from the political faction—.
“I don’t have much to say.”
Before Dam Chun-wu finished his words, I swung the Blood Chun Demon Sword once and said.
“If you’re going to fight, you’d better attack quickly.”
With a really innocent face.
“Because it’s going to be the same for everyone to die anyway.”
I didn’t lie.
―Crazy, crazy, crazy…! I knew this would happen…!
Because I’ll be the only one who survives in this place today.
