Chapter 54 : Alias
Iron Blood Divine Art.
The na of the divine art technique practiced by the forr Saphaeryeon Leader, Iron Venerable, was written in the book.
"It's a na befitting the Saphaeryeon Leader's martial arts."
"It's suspicious that they just left that smack in the middle like that."
"Should we take it?"
"It is coveted."
Since we ca all the way here through the flas, we had to take at least that book.
After all, if our group didn't take it, it was obvious soone else would end up with that book.
The problem was.
'Why did this guy guide us to this pillar so obediently?'
I stared at the Blood Eye Snake.
Then,
Grrr-
The Blood Eye Snake's mouth opened.
-Mm? This guy, perhaps because it's a snake that lived for two hundred years, seems to have beco an imugi capable of conveying its will.
'What is wrong?'
-It says it wants you to take this book?
It seed the Sword Venerable and the Demon Queen could communicate with the Blood Eye Snake.
'I would be grateful if you could ask the reason.'
-It says there are guys who entered here first?
'Who was it?'
-It says they were guys wearing red cloaks. Does this give a bad feeling? It says it had a hard ti chasing them out.
Those wearing red cloaks.
They are the guys who leaked the treasure map to the Saphaeryeon warriors and gathered martial artists at Jade Void Peak.
-Huh? It seems it heard from its master to deliver this book to a possessor of Extre Yang Qi.
Ah.
The Blood Eye Snake flashed its red eyes.
That was why the Blood Eye Snake stayed still even while other poisonous snakes were being grilled and boiled.
The fact that I possess Extre Yang Qi was sothing anyone could easily notice, not just the Blood Eye Snake.
'But why Extre Yang Qi?'
-That is…….
"Cough- cough- What fire is this!"
At that mont, commotion was felt from outside.
Since we entered the cave by cutting the rock, it seed smoke was escaping outside.
"Captain, what do we do with this snake?"
We couldn't possibly make snake wine out of a snake that is friendly to our group.
-…Yeom-a.
'Yes?'
-Burn it.
'What do you an…….'
-Look at that.
At the Demon Queen's pointing, I looked at the Blood Eye Snake.
I saw a red palm print stamped on its chest.
'Blood Seal.'
My brow furrowed.
That was because I had seen that Blood Seal in the past.
'Why is the martial art used by the guy who killed the Dokgo Demon Clan Head, the Ten Thousand Red Sword Demon, here…….'
Before Hyeokryeon Geuk killed Hyeokryeon Mu and .
aning, before officially invading the Central Plains, he dispatched experts from the Five Great Demon Clans to the Central Plains in advance.
The problem was that there was soone who t a mysterious sudden death at that ti.
'The Sword Demon's death.'
It was a shocking incident in the Demonic Cult at the ti.
He hadn't even fought one of the Ten Venerables under the Heavens, yet the Sword Demon, who was a core manpower of the Demonic Cult, died in an instant.
Only later did we find out that the cause of death was because of that Blood Seal.
What makes the Blood Seal scary is that it remains like a brand and eats away at the prenatal qi.
In other words, a living being stamped with that blood palm print had no choice but to live a terminally ill life.
And the fact that that brand is stamped on the Blood Eye Snake.
'ans it is fated to die soon.'
The Blood Eye Snake probably knows that fact too, which is why it is asking to be burned.
I approached the Blood Eye Snake slowly.
There is still an unsolved question.
'Could you ask why the Iron Venerable asked to deliver the Iron Blood Divine Art to a possessor of Extre Yang Qi?'
At my question, the Demon Queen seed to converse with the Blood Eye Snake.
-What?
The Demon Queen's flustered voice was heard.
-Kuhahaha! That man called Iron Venerable, what a simple reason!
'What is wrong?'
Laugh with .
-I told you before that the Demon Queen and Iron Venerable had a brawl here on Jade Void Peak. It says he was resentful about losing to the Demon Queen back then. Iron Venerable, who wanted to challenge again but couldn't due to unavoidable circumstances, seemingly thought it would be good if soone with Extre Yang Qi inherited his martial arts to defeat the Demon Queen who possessed Extre Yin Qi.
Competitive spirit?
It probably isn't that.
Enough for the Saphaeryeon Leader, Iron Venerable, to make his tomb in Mount Kunlun.
It ans he rembered the mories at Jade Void Peak.
'It's affection.'
I placed my hand on the Blood Eye Snake's scales.
"So you have been guarding this place until soone with Extre Yang Qi appeared after that."
How much effort the Blood Eye Snake must have made not to be discovered by the Taoists of Kunlun.
"Rest in peace now."
Flare-
Flas started engulfing the Blood Eye Snake.
-Thank you, human.
At the last mont, I think I heard the Blood Eye Snake's voice.
Hearing that voice, I imdiately took out the book located in the center of the pillar.
Then,
Rumble.
"I knew this would happen."
The cave started to vibrate.
The guy who left the Blood Seal on the Blood Eye Snake seed intent on killing everyone who struggled to take this book.
***
"Rocks are rolling on the ground!"
"I saw Taoist Azure Void entering inside there!"
"It's the Saphaeryeon Leader's tomb!"
Rumble-
While fighting with the Taoists of Kunlun, the Saphaeryeon warriors also discovered smoke flowing out from Mount Kunlun.
Because they thought it must be related to the treasure map.
Both groups stopped the fierce battle and climbed Jade Void Peak.
The warriors who discovered the cave started using movent arts like crazy towards the cave, regardless of who was first.
It is the tomb of none other than the forr Saphaeryeon Leader.
Just obtaining the Saphaeryeon Leader's martial arts or legacy could make one a peerless master.
Therefore, the warriors wanted to enter the cave as soon as possible.
And.
"Aaaack!"
"It, it's p-p-poison!"
"Poison is mixed in the smoke, hold your breath everyone!"
"Kuhaha! If only I can seize Iron Venerable's stolen goods, I can endure this level of poison for a mont……."
At first, people died from being poisoned by the poison smoke.
What those who broke through the poison smoke faced was a massive fire demon.
Even the martial artists who were blocking the poisonous qi couldn't block the fire demon sweeping over them.
To make matters worse,
Rumble.
"The, the cave is collapsing!"
Now even the cave started collapsing.
Those who entered the cave had to experience the crisis of death three tis in a row.
Especially.
"Cloud Dragon Eight Forms!"
Whirl!
Even Taoist Azure Void, who twisted his body in mid-air and created wind to blow away the poison smoke along with the fire demon, couldn't block the collapsing rocks.
Thud-
Although he drew his sword and cut the rocks, advancing in this situation was unreasonable.
"Just who committed such an act on the sacred Mount Kunlun!"
Only the sight of a single towering snake being completely incinerated was visible.
Taoist Azure Void was watching the appearance of the Blood Eye Snake burning to the tip of its head.
So he didn't see the pillar rising next to it.
Woosh!
At that mont, a massive fla storm pushed the fire demon inside the cave to the outside.
"Kuaaack!"
"S, save m-"
Taoist Azure Void quickly wrapped himself in body-protecting energy and stared at the epicenter of the fla storm.
He saw five figures escaping outside the cave, seemingly unaffected by the fire demon as they pierced through the flas with fire.
Clearly, they were the culprits who caused this situation.
"You bastardsss!!"
The mont Taoist Azure Void's roar was about to burst out again,
Boom!
The cave collapsed completely.
***
We almost died.
Coming outside, I discovered there were an incredibly large number of corpses fallen and rolling on the ground.
'This isn't good.'
I didn't know about other things, but one thing seed certain.
That the situation was flowing as so unknown force desired.
'So it's the Kunlun Secret History.'
In my past life, I heard stories that demonic practitioners of the Demonic Cult killed nurous martial artists at Mount Kunlun.
I rember that the era of peace ca to an end as the warriors of the Kunlun Sect suffered mass death at this ti.
I rember clearly because it was when Hyeokryeon Geuk was preparing for the Great Demonic War in earnest.
However,
Thinking about it now, an uneasiness remains.
The Blood Seal stamped on the Blood Eye Snake's body.
And the framing regarding the Ice Palace person from the Demonic Cult, and even the treasure map incident that happened here.
Could Hyeokryeon Geuk alone cause things to happen to this extent?
'To argue that Hyeokryeon Geuk hasn't even beco the Young Cult Leader yet, would he have caused things to this extent?'
In the world, this Kunlun Secret History was known as the Demonic Cult's invasion.
Therefore, declaring that the era of peace had ended, the Murim Alliance and Saphaeryeon prepared for the invasion of the Demonic Cult and the Outer Region Murim in earnest.
'If this act is the act of a third party.'
Perhaps the Great Demonic War that would have occurred after I died might not have flowed in the direction Hyeokryeon Geuk wanted.
'For now.'
That was a problem to think about later.
"Everyone run with all your might!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Escaping Mount Kunlun safely was the urgent priority.
Furthermore, to not be late for the engagent ceremony, the group had to use movent arts like crazy.
-How about checking the book first even if it takes so ti?
At that mont, the Demon Queen suggested.
'I think that is a good idea.'
Iron Blood Divine Art.
A na attached because it is said to make a person into an iron man.
Like the na, Iron Venerable was an outstanding figure who mastered this Iron Blood Divine Art and united Saphaeryeon with just his fists, ascending to the seat of Saphaeryeon Leader.
'If only I can improve it a bit.'
I could beco an iron man who can travel fine even after running for several days and nights.
Thinking such thoughts, I opened Iron Venerable's book while descending Mount Kunlun rapidly.
[Successor.
First, there is one thing this Leader wants to tell the successor. I ca to be called one of the Ten Venerables under the Heavens with this single martial art. The na of the divine art is Iron Blood Divine Art. But you see. Would the successor believe it if there were nine more of such martial arts?]
From the first page, a bunch of novel nonsense was written.
"What is written?"
Perhaps curious about reading the book, Cheon Deung-jin approached and asked.
"I think the book was swapped."
I couldn't believe the fact that ten martial arts worthy of being called one of the Ten Venerables under the Heavens with just one existed.
[If you continue reading with interest without closing it, the successor will also be able to believe. That this Leader did not speak lies.]
I felt like I knew why the expert who left the Blood Seal and managed to enter inside the cave didn't take this book.
'Do I have to keep reading this?'
The mont I was pondering that,
[I learned it while conversing with other Ten Venerables under the Heavens. The fact that all the martial arts capable of making one one of the Ten Venerables under the Heavens just by learning one, including this Leader's Iron Blood Divine Art, were created by one person.]
A na I had heard of appeared in the book.
[I will tell you the alias of the one who created this Leader's martial arts. Clearly, the Ten Venerables under the Heavens referred to him as the Ice Emperor.]
The alias of the First North Sea Martial God appeared in the book.
