Chapter 85 : Blood Cult
Diamond Fighting King Divine Fist.
If the Iron Venerable's story is correct.
'The person who created this martial art is also.'
It ant it was the Ice Emperor Seol Cheon-u.
How could one person create such diverse martial arts?
Was he a Martial God or sothing?
-He was a Martial God.
-He was indeed a person called the Martial God in the North Sea.
The Sword Venerable and Demon Queen interrupted my contemplation.
Thinking that the hypothesis might be true was because.
'It fits perfectly with the Iron Venerable's martial art.'
A fist art more powerful than any Demonic Art of the Demonic Cult I knew.
While I was feeling the fist art flowing into my head.
"Here again."
I fell into the ntal world.
"Successor."
The man who appeared before my eyes was a man whose entire body was full of scars.
"Are you the Fighting Venerable?"
"You are not surprised."
"Because I have experienced this kind of situation quite a lot."
"Hmm, to think there are already three ghosts attached to your soul."
Three?
Not two?
Before I could raise a question, the Fighting Venerable approached .
As if examining muscles and bones, the Fighting Venerable began to examine my body thoroughly.
"It is sothing to be pleased about. You have learned the Iron Venerable's understanding, and on top of that, you possess a unique constitution."
"You recognize that right away?"
"I recognized it right away because the Iron Venerable is a guy who followed around saying he would learn my martial arts. Is the Iron Venerable still alive?"
"He has passed away."
"That has beco regrettable."
He is a figure from a previous era.
If he were still alive, it would be a miracle.
"So why did you appear in my ntal world?"
"Since you possess the Diamond Gauntlet, I could co find you like this. I ca to listen to the successor's story and also to teach the Divine Fist."
Being passed down from martial arts is sothing to be pleased about.
However,
"Are you saying… to tell you how I obtained the Diamond Gauntlet?"
"Yes."
I was in a difficult position.
If I said I robbed the escort goods of an escort mission and that happened to be the Diamond Gauntlet by chance, it seed he wouldn't pass down the martial art.
Since it seed lies wouldn't work anyway, I decided to tell the truth.
"What?! The Divine Thief stole the Diamond Gauntlet?"
The reaction when I told the news that the Divine Thief stole the Diamond Gauntlet.
"You opened the escort goods and it was the Diamond Gauntlet?!"
The reaction when I discovered the Diamond Gauntlet in the escort goods.
"Ahem, you were a lucky successor."
"Honestly, I still don't know why the Diamond Gauntlet was inside the escort goods."
"Escort goods heading to Yueyang Tower. There must have been soone who wanted the Diamond Gauntlet at the end of it."
"I am thinking so too."
I was crazily curious who it was.
"But, anyway, even if you possessed only the Diamond Gauntlet, you wouldn't have been able to learn This Seat's fist art."
"That is correct."
I rember that the Fist Demon also only used his own Demonic Art and couldn't learn the Fighting Venerable's martial art because of that.
"Well, however you ca to obtain it, the fact that a connection has been made does not change."
The Fighting Venerable took a stance.
"Since it is the first ti learning the fist properly, I look forward to your cooperation."
Swish!
and the Fighting Venerable started a fist fight.
***
"…He is alive, right?"
Deung Ga-so and Han Seol-bi gazed at Hyeokryeon Yeom who had stopped while standing.
As he approached the Tomb of the Fighting Venerable wearing the Diamond Gauntlet, Hyeokryeon Yeom literally stopped.
"He might have obtained so enlightennt."
Han Seol-bi leaned against the wall and started resting while massaging her ankle.
"Since we don't know when he will wake up, Escort Deung should also rest for a while."
"What did you say your na was?"
"I am Han Seol-bi."
"Are you from the Ice Palace?"
"Yes."
Deung Ga-so started asking Han Seol-bi this and that as if he was curious about sothing, and Han Seol-bi threw various questions at Deung Ga-so.
"Young Hero Hyeokryeon was… from the Demonic Cult?"
"Oh my, you didn't know?"
"Yes…… He was a scary person."
"That is true, but he might not be."
Han Seol-bi gazed at Hyeokryeon Yeom who was standing vacantly.
"What do you an he might not be?"
"He might be an infinitely scary person to enemies, but to his own people, he seems like an infinitely warm person. No, he is originally a warm person."
The hot man who appeared in the cold North Sea lted the hearts of everyone in the North Sea.
'Hmm, anyway, I don't know if unnie is okay.'
She went on a celebratory tour for the engagent with Hyeokryeon Yeom, but she actually got separated from Hyeokryeon Yeom.
"Wake up quickly, we have to go to Yueyang Tower quickly."
At the word Yueyang Tower, Deung Ga-so was startled.
"…Why are you so surprised?"
"When I think of the client who will be waiting for the escort goods at Yueyang Tower… I get goosebumps."
At Deung Ga-so's words, Han Seol-bi also beca curious.
'Who could it be.'
What kind of crazy guy thought of entrusting a divine object like the Diamond Gauntlet as escort goods.
***
At that ti.
Yueyang Tower.
"The escort goods?"
"I heard an escort from the Geumgang Escort Agency is transporting them."
Saphaeryeon's Leader, Yong Il-gang asked his subordinate.
"Although we missed the Iron Venerable's martial art, we will be able to obtain the Fighting Venerable's Diamond Gauntlet, right?"
"Yes. As long as a transportation accident doesn't happen in the middle, it seems there will be no problem."
"We deliberately put the request to an Escort Agency that has no record of transportation failure. There won't be any case of escort goods being robbed by bandits or water pirates."
"You confird the na of the escort transporting the escort goods, right?"
"Yes, it is an escort nad Deung Ga-so."
Saphaeryeon's General Manager, Sa Ma-yun asked cautiously.
"Um, by the way, have you heard news about the Twin Venerable?"
"No, I haven't heard. Why did they say they t the Divine Physician?"
"We obtained information that the Divine Physician is coming to Yueyang Tower."
"Hmm?"
At Sa Ma-yun's words, Yong Il-gang looked back at Sa Ma-yun.
"Here?"
"Yes. It is said he is moving with the Ice Palace's Young Palace Head."
"Ice Palace's Young Palace Head, the possibility that that guy is the North Sea Martial God of the current generation?"
"That is……."
"What's wrong?"
"They say it's a woman."
"Is it the Demon Queen's bloodline?"
"They say it's not that either."
"Then she must not be the North Sea Martial God of the current generation. That is regrettable. I thought I could obtain the Sword Venerable's divine object too."
Sa Ma-yun asked the lord he served about sothing he had been curious about for a long ti.
"Why are you so obsessed with the Ten Venerables under the Heavens' divine objects, Leader?"
"Does it look like I am obsessed?"
"I apologize, it was a slip of the tongue."
Yong Il-gang shook his head.
He thought it was a natural curiosity and question.
Because Yong Il-gang himself also thought he was obsessed with the Ten Venerables under the Heavens' divine objects.
"World's Best."
"Yes?"
"The Ten Venerables under the Heavens' bloodline, a legend passed down to only an extrely few among them."
If one collects all the Ten Venerables under the Heavens' divine objects, one can beco the World's Best.
In other words, one can beco a Martial God.
"Since I was born as a man, isn't dreaming of becoming the World's Best a natural thing in this Jianghu?"
"I will assist you until the day you beco the World's Best Leader."
At Sa Ma-yun's clasped hands greeting, Yong Il-gang gulped down the alcohol cup while looking at Dongting Lake.
The taste of alcohol drunk at Yueyang Tower was excellent no matter when he drank it.
***
"Wake up."
"Gasp!"
Han Seol-bi opened her eyes.
It seed she fell asleep from exhaustion while waiting for .
"Did, did you wake up?"
Deung Ga-so also wiped the drool flowing from his mouth and got up.
It was a cold cave floor, but perhaps because warm warmth leaked out from .
The two people could fall into a drowsy sleep.
"Yes, how long have I been like this?"
"I don't know well."
"It feels like I slept for more than three two-hour periods."
"Fatigue must have been relieved."
"What about the Captain?"
"No problem."
Han Seol-bi looked at .
My face seed to shine even more.
"How co it seems you slept better than us?"
"I dreamt a quite long dream."
"Hmm, I see."
"Let's move."
The mont I tried to go deeper inside the cave.
"Found it!"
A noisy voice was heard from the entrance side.
"Huh? A sound from the entrance……."
"It's not a familiar voice."
It wouldn't be the demonic practitioners.
Before falling from the cliff, I burned them all.
"Ah, co to think of it, when I approached the leader of the n in blood-red robes, I checked the back, and there was more ambush."
"There was more ambush?"
"Wait here for a mont."
"Wait again?"
"Go and co back."
Deung Ga-so intended to wait quietly.
He had an expression like he didn't want to get involved in a battle like a while ago ever again.
"I will return soon."
Leaving those words, I unfolded lightness art and headed to the entrance of the cave.
'Coming up… from below?'
n in blood-red robes climbing up the cliff were caught in my vision.
"To think there would be a cave in a place like this. Search quickly!"
The person appearing to be the leader of the n in blood-red robes shouted.
Not demonic practitioners, but wearing blood-red robes.
The answer ca out right away.
'Blood Cult.'
If those guys are indeed Blood Cultists.
There was a debt I had to pay back.
'The guy who infiltrated all the way to the Ice Palace and told them to capture Seol Ye-rin.'
I intend to catch that guy and beat him up by any ans.
Furthermore.
'This is troubling.'
I could live a whole life only after taking revenge on Hyeokryeon Geuk.
However.
'If the Blood Cult appears, a setback occurs in the revenge journey.'
Slide-
I perated into the darkness of the cave.
Actually, there was no need to hide particularly, but.
Fwoosh!
"Kuaaak-"
The n in blood-red robes rushing to search the cave burst into flas.
"He seems to be here!"
"Where?"
"Behind you."
I soared from behind the leader of the n in blood-red robes.
Wham-
"Keuk."
I clearly punched him from behind, but rebounding energy occurred.
It was certain he was the strongest guy among those I had t so far.
"That is……."
At that mont, the leader of the n in blood-red robes, the Ten Thousand Blood Poison King checked my hand.
He discovered I was wearing ink-colored gauntlets.
That color and shape.
It was similar to the form of the Diamond Gauntlet the Ten Thousand Blood Poison King knew.
"Diamond Gauntlet!"
"Was this what you were targeting?"
Only then did I realize what the n in blood-red robes were targeting and approached for.
Slide- slide.
"Huh?"
Then, I took off the Diamond Gauntlet and held it in my right hand.
"What……."
And then.
Fwoosh.
I raised fire in my left hand.
And then brought the Diamond Gauntlet to the flas burning in my left hand.
"With just such fire……."
"It is fire that burns even people."
Fwoosh!
"Kuaaak!"
He saw a Blood Cultist burning fiercely next to him.
Really, the Ten Thousand Blood Poison King began to feel anxiety that it might even burn the Diamond Gauntlet.
"W-Wait a mont. Talk. Let's talk!"
A deep smile was drawn on the corners of my mouth watching the n in blood-red robes whose faces were extrely anxious.
