152. 17th floor (4)
Chii!
「The authority ‘Hyeolcheon Deep Gong’ is strongly activated.」
Damcheonwu said.
It is said that the blood cheonshimgong makes the user extremely crazy in the case of life and death.
The red filter placed on the eyes by the blood cheonshimgong is a phenomenon that occurs when the wildness is pushed to the limit.
Body strengthening, regenerative ability, sensory expansion, five star enhancement, etc…
There are several effects, but he chose this one as the most important among them.
That’s right…
[The skill ‘Seeker of Fresh Blood’ is activated.]
Any amount of blood can be generated by consuming mana.
Of course, Damcheonwu added that since the Blood Demon Spirit Gong itself is only half, you need to learn the Blood Demon Artifact to become completely strong
.
It was worth it.
The blood control technology provided by the Blood Demon Artisan is a supernatural ability that is inferior to the ‘seeker of fresh blood’.
For me, who can use more powerful blood manipulation than a vampire, the only new skill I learned from the blood drill was blood generation.
But even that was enough.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!!
“What the hell is that! Blood Magic Art!? The blood demon couldn’t have come here!”
“How can you cause trouble with such great power! What a fool!”
“Ha ha ha! It’s magic! That’s funny! I wonder if I can beat the martial arts of the main school!”
It is truly an overflowing power to overwhelm everyone in this place.
The red smoke-like energy that rises from the body is all the blood generated by the Blood Demon Sacred Art converted into gas.
I controlled it with a fresh-blood seeker and completely spread it inside the cave.
and.
Whoa…!!
As soon as I pressed the blood that had turned into gas, the bodies of the enemies staggered.
“Kuh!? What kind of nonsensical witchcraft is this…! How can such a monster…!”
“No no oh! How far are you going to tarnish this place! Did you forget your pact!?”
“Ha ha ha ha! yes! In the first place, something like a promise is meaningless! It’s finally getting fun!”
They uttered incomprehensible sounds, but mostly their posture was disturbed.
「The skill ‘Focus on Combat’ is activated.」 As if
watching a slow video, the world slowed down and various skills accelerated my body.
In a narrow cave, if you use powerful techniques like Seong-gwang or Changchunyungeom, you should be able to return with a handshake.
‘Then I’m in trouble too.’
So, the intention was to use only the sword grass as much as possible to clear up the situation.
That’s why he created an advantageous environment by changing the blood into gas with the blood drill deep hole so that he could restrain the enemies even a little.
‘Of course, even if I didn’t do this, I wouldn’t lose, but there are things to do.’
It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to subdue an enemy with pure skill, so it’s a little fun.
The first to step out was a middle-aged man who appeared to be a monk.
He bit his lower lip and forcibly broke through the pressure created by the blood seeker and charged me.
‘come.’
Looking at that, calmly holding the twin swords, predicted the enemy’s course of action.
But…
‘What is that again?’
A middle-aged man who appeared to be a monk suddenly struck a blow into empty space.
It was a situation in which he did not emit martial arts and did not feel any magical powers at all.
After being puzzled by him for a while, my vision suddenly shook.
Kwaaang!
A crushing sensation spread throughout the body.
“…!?”
I didn’t even catch a sign of a punch, but I was suddenly hit in the face.
「The skill ‘Ashen blood’ is activated.」
What’s even more creepy is that I didn’t know anything until I was hit like this.
If the endurance value had been lower or if the power of the authority had been stronger, I would have invoked the final resistance without knowing why.
―It is the Baekbo Shinkwon, which is called Shaolin Temple’s Shin Gongjeolhak. You’d better be careful. Dumb guys are sneaky and use invisible powers.
Listening to Dam Chun-wu’s advice, I quickly corrected my disheveled posture.
and.
「The authority ‘Shunbo’ is activated.」
「A cooldown is applied to the power for 10 minutes.」
「Consumes holy power to move to the desired point within sight immediately.」
“Now! Everyone should take this opportunity to work together…!?”
Awesome!
「You killed Tuseung Jeonggak.」
「Selected and killed a strong enemy.」
「 All stats temporarily increase by +1 on the 17th floor stage.」
「Destroy all enemies.」
was cut as is.
―…well, it’s a good way to organize it all at once, but it’s really ruthless.
Of course, Dam Chun-wu said it as if it was an overreaction, but I had a slightly different opinion.
‘There is nothing as unsightly as dying carelessly…’
I wanted to see martial arts to see what reason it had, but it was right to rule out elements of anxiety in the first place.
The correct answer is not to create a situation that will be difficult in the first place.
Of course, I wondered how he hid his presence and unleashed his authority on me, but I couldn’t ignore the potential of others to subdue and ask him.
Because they also don’t know what kind of technique to use, like the two-seung right angle.
But from now on, I thought it wouldn’t be that difficult.
‘Because he rushed through the bloody fog faster than anyone else, his fighting spirit must have been the strongest among them.’
It was clear that Tuseung Jeonggak, who quickly broke through the pressure of the bloody mist, would be the strongest of them all.
‘Then, from now on, there will be no unexpected factors that I can’t handle.’
As I raised my mana a bit stronger, I heard an angry cry.
“Noh Ohm! How dare you run rampant without knowing how scary the sky is!”
Whoops!
Then, a young man in a pink uniform swung his sword with fighting spirit.
“…?”
For some reason, it felt as if the scent of plum blossoms emanated from the sword… but
it was only for a moment that I questioned it.
I half-opened my eyes as I watched the blade split into dozens of pieces and fluttered like flower petals.
Those aren’t real.
It boasts a strong presence like plum blossoms, whose mana is blown in the wind due to its intentions, but… in
reality, what can hit me with that sword is determined.
To hide it, he spewed out his sword so splendidly.
‘…Ah, could this be that?’
Transformation.
This is one of the principles of martial arts that I heard while learning various things about martial arts from Baekhakgeomseon.
I hadn’t seen it before, so I didn’t know, but it didn’t feel like a very good technique.
In order to make a fake swordsman feel like the real thing, there would have to be a lot of willpower to pour into magic, and it wouldn’t work against enemies of a higher level.
I thought to him
‘In that case, it would be better to launch a sword attack that can never be blocked or avoided.’
Just like this.
Whoa!
I immediately swung my sword and spread the herbivore of the white sword island, and soon the magical power contained in the blade responded to my willpower and pulled the space itself.
“What…! High space…!?”
Kwajijik-!
The splendidly fluttering plum blossoms were momentarily crushed by the attraction of the space, and before I knew it, only a couple of sword grains were left.
Of course, as soon as it touched the sword, it could not withstand the energy and disappeared.
「The special effect of the skill ‘Hongwon Demon Sword 混元魔劍’, ‘Double Combustion (雙連擊)’, is activated.」
Subsequently, the skill is also activated, and the strongly activated intention pulls the opponent.
Of course, perhaps because the other person was also an excellent person, he didn’t fall for it right away and resisted in his own way.
“bloke! Do you think you will be treated so kindly!”
He tried to shake off my will, which was pulling in space while scattering his magic power in all directions.
It was a skill that was possible because it was a Murim person who was extremely honing his mind.
‘It’s strong.’
It is a toughness that makes you think of a great swordsman described in martial arts.
His skill should be higher than that of the shaman demon sword who died before.
There was no shortage of opponents to compete in martial arts.
It’s just…
“Activate True Blood Demon Sword’s < Imprint Skill: Strengthen Intention (B+) >.” It was
only that the level of intent itself was different that decided the victory or defeat.
It was obvious what would happen if the level of intention itself was different depending on the state, as it was strengthened with skills.
Chow!
The swordsman in a pink uniform was decapitated without being able to resist for a moment.
「You killed Maehwa Swordsman Lee Chun-jun.」
「Selected and killed a strong enemy.」
「All stats temporarily increase by +1 on the 17th floor stage.」
「Destroy all enemies.」
There were no impressions.
He didn’t use any unusual skills right before he died like the person called Tuseung Jeonggak before.
There was nothing interesting about it, except for the fact that it directly showed that it was a perversion.
But I wasn’t disappointed.
“Two two-seung Jeong-gak and plum swordsman Lee Cheon-joon are 10 seconds intelligent…? A monstrous monster…!”
“Ha ha ha ha…? small cow? How about trying to solve the situation by talking to each other, since we’re the same magicians…?”
Although the enemies speak as if they have lost their will, they will do their best regardless of their fighting intentions.
“Why don’t you put aside the nonsensical sounds like weaklings and chatting teeth and try your best?”
That would be the case too…
“I think we’re both going to be killed if we stay as they are.”
Otherwise, they would all have to die like this.
Looking at the enemies who had become quiet before I knew it, I grinned.
“You’d better fight with all your might.”
From now on, it seemed that I could observe martial arts a little more slowly.
***
The battle did not last long.
The remaining enemies were insignificant, perhaps because there were few talented people like Tuseung Jeong-gak or Maehwa Swordsman Lee Cheon-jun.
Should I say that his skill is similar to that of the shaman demon sword he killed in the first place?
I tried to use the hidden technology well in my own way, but it wasn’t very interesting.
Of course, it wasn’t that there was no income at all.
‘The martial arts knowledge itself was really good.’
Whether it’s a fantasy sword or a quick sword…
I was able to directly see the principles of martial arts that I had learned from Baekhak Geomseon with just knowledge.
It was not just knowledge, but what I saw in direct combat was a big difference.
‘Certainly, seeing it in person makes more sense than hearing it.’
Of course, those reasons weren’t as great as I thought, but that’s probably because the skills of the users themselves weren’t good.
More advanced performers will deal with classy techniques.
At least I thought so.
Looking at the corpses scattered all over the place, I soldered my twin swords to my waist.
‘…the whole body is full of energy.’
His body was clearly different from before he pulled out the twin swords from his waist.
Thanks to the message that popped up every time I killed 7 people, all of my stats increased by +7 before I knew it.
‘It’s limited to the 17th floor stage, but this is pretty good, right?’
It was around the time I was feeling satisfied with him. 「You have passed the road of solitude
of
Heavenly Father.
」
Suddenly, the walls of the cave opened, revealing a path through it.
As expected, I noticed it at the point of increasing all stats by +7, but…
‘This trial seems dangerous.’
It seemed that this ordeal would be quite difficult, if not as difficult as the previous ordeal of the god of battle.
‘No matter what the difficulty level is, I just have to give the right reward.’
Of course, that’s what I wanted, so I had no complaints.
After staring at the open wall for a moment, I stepped off and walked to the new location.
While walking through the moderately narrow corridor, I suddenly realized that the Blood Heaven Demon Sword was silent.
During the battle, after talking a few times, I felt strange because his words suddenly decreased.
But even that was short-lived.
―…I remembered.
Dam Chun-wu said so out of the blue.
―…What do you mean you remembered?
So, when I asked him what he was talking about, he got an answer right away.
―That’s the literal meaning. I remembered. Where is this place and for what purpose did the Murim people gather?
At that, something like lightning flashed through my mind.
Come to think of it, trials in the tower often directly reproduced real events.
Then, this sudden bloody battle might also be an incident that happened in Moorim someday.
That means that Damcheonwu, who is from the Moorim dimension, could know about it.
‘To think of this now…’
I wouldn’t have thought of it if Dam Chun-wu hadn’t told me about it.
Of course, judging from the current level of the ordeal, it was not something to be so nervous about, but it was good to know about the background of the ordeal just in case.
It was all the more so because there were many cases where the difficulty of trials suddenly increased.
I handed over a direct question to Dam Chun-wu by telephony.
―Do you know anything about the background of the 17th floor stage?
―I heard that 100 years ago, before the tower even existed in Murim, there was a great bloody apocalypse.
―…?
-Cheonmugo (天武庫). A remark that hundreds of years ago, the light sword emperor, who was called the best man in the world, left numerous martial arts. This must be the background of the 17th floor ordeal.
―It must be because of those who are aiming for that martial arts that it is related to the Great Bloody Coal.
-That’s the correct answer. The martial arts of the strong are always accompanied by bloodshed. Even more so if it belonged to a person called the first person in the world. so that’s the problem
Dam Chun-wu said in an extremely serious voice.
– Han Seong-yoon. You will die here. And very miserably.
It was a prophecy of death without the slightest hesitation.
