Meanwhile, Mao and Qiwuwei head to the Manma Tomb.

When they opened the magnificent Asura Gate and entered, an unexpected sight unfolded.

“What is this?”

It was a meaningless statement, but no words could have expressed everyone’s feelings better.

At first, I couldn’t see anything because of the smoky fog rising above the black dirt floor, but the moment I passed through it.

The empty lot was filled with people who absolutely could not be there.

“In a broad sense… … .”

“My God and the slaughterhouse?!”

“They are the soldiers of the Sanwang family!”

Everyone was in disbelief. It didn’t make sense that they were in the basement of Cheonmajeon…

“You punk, you punk! You died by my hand!”

From the bloodless public servant Mysin to the butcher Sado-cheol and the mad dog Saho-jeong. In addition, there are the Seokwol Geumhwa-bin, the Yoo Seong-cheol-toe Dong-tak, the Seokma-dokgung Yodo-sun brothers. Not to mention the demons and countless assassins.

Most of those who would have been used as fertilizer appeared before my eyes.

“I figured it out… … !”

Mao screamed in shock.

“They all pretended to be dead and hid here!”

That must be it. Gwapyeong corrected himself, frowning.

“Captain, it looks like they’ve laid out a formation.”

That’s right. It’s also the highest level of the Demonic Cult’s formation.

In order to leave Manma Bunchong, you must either pass all three stages of the test or endure the 100-day period.

“You were so surprised that you thought it was real! No, but, how did you know that? Did you come and see it?”

“Hey, master. In this situation, wouldn’t it be stranger not to know?”

“Was that so!”

Gwapyeong shook his head. In any case, the important thing wasn’t whether it was real or not.

Just by looking at it, you can tell that it is full of life energy and looks like it is ready to fight.

“Everyone, get ready.”

Guyu gave a short order. The Seven Warriors each drew their weapons and prepared.

The opponents are Maisin and Dosalbang who killed Mandeuk and Cheolyeong. And Sanwangga who defeated Cheolmajeok. In addition, Gwang’s eternal enemy Gongsonjeol.

They were all those who had driven Mao and the Seven Wuwei to despair.

This was the first stage of the Manma Bunchong test. How well you can overcome the most difficult and painful things in life. Depending on that, you will be given an appropriate reward.

Surely, an ordinary person would tremble and kneel before them.

But that’s the general case.

“These kids are caught.”

Mao smiled wickedly and pulled out his spear dragon sword.

And then he leapt forward with all his might and shouted.

“Take care of everything-! Twice. No, three times! Woohahahaha!”

Maoooooooo!

These are Mao and the Seven Wuwei.

We are not beings who are haunted by the ghosts of a past that has already set, but rather the rising sun of Cheonsan!

It was a moment of anticipation to see what kind of martial arts I would gain from this test.

‘Jang I Seo. We’ll go back stronger!’

Mao’s spear dragon sword cut through the darkness!

* * *

– Qinghai Province, Xining (west?).

A man wearing a black hat appeared riding a black horse in front of the crowded city gate.

His name is Jang Eun-seo.

He was the one who came to Cheonghae to retrieve the Neungga-gyeong.

‘I never thought the day would come when I would openly step on the land of the Central Plains.’

I was filled with emotion. Of course, I had been to the Kunlun Mountains not long ago, and had been there several times during my time in the Counterintelligence Corps.

But this was the first time I returned alone and free like this.

‘Of course, I came here on a secret order from Cheonma.’

The overwhelming emotions cool down. I pulled my mask up to the tip of my nose for no reason.

‘Anyway, what’s important now is that the Blood Cult is plotting something within here.’

Of course, finding them in Cheonghae, where there is no connection at the moment, is as daunting as finding yellow clay beads in the desert.

But when wasn’t that the case?

It is the Jang Seo that makes the impossible possible.

“passing!”

As I glanced at the gate ahead, the first gate came into view.

They are government troops.

It is said that the government and the martial arts world are inviolable, but that also depends on the affiliation.

Strictly speaking, the Demonic Cult is a traitor to the imperial family. There is no benefit to revealing their identity.

“Where did you come from? Take off your mask first.”

But fortunately, Seonyeong’s government officials were, to put it nicely, flexible, and, to put it badly, corrupt.

“Now that you’ve put in the effort, go have a chat with your colleagues.”

“passing!”

If you give them a few pennies, they will enter without bloodshed. Of course, I understand their circumstances.

Here, Cheonghae is adjacent to the new foreign countries of Seojang and Xingang, so many people come and go every day, and many forces are in conflict.

Besides, the surrounding area is a vast wilderness.

The number of government troops was woefully inadequate to manage all of this.

Moreover, because of the Neungga-gyeong, the surrounding area was full of swordsmanship.

It is impossible to check all of these one by one. So, rather than intervene, we chose to let them run wild.

Because of that, the inside of the castle was close to a lawless zone.

“Stand up straight. If you don’t want to get kicked. Kick kick kick!”

Even now, as soon as I entered, I saw a sight that made me frown.

Some men in black with fierce features were conducting a body search that even government troops did not do.

“No, where is this law! Send me away quickly… … Kyaak!”

“Where is this kid going!”

Protests were useless. The man who had been appealing was dragged out with great force and trampled on without mercy.

Then, after turning it into a rag, he shook his hands and spoke threateningly to everyone.

“If anyone wants to go, just tell me. I’ll finish it off quickly like that kid.”

A landscape that is truly beyond common sense.

I could immediately guess what the situation was.

‘You’re looking for the Nenggajing.’

It was obvious. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be acting so ignorant.

In fact, if you only look at it from the outside, you might not understand why the martial artists are treated with such contempt by those ruffians… … .

‘They are all trained in martial arts. At least first-class. And the snake tattoo on the back of their hands… ‘

As far as Jang Seo knew, there was only one piece of trash with these characteristics.

‘Black Snake Gang. One of the eight major factions that form the backbone of the Apostolic Alliance.’

If there are the Gupa Ilbang and the Odaeseaga in the Murim Alliance, there are the Paldaebang factions in the Sado League.

The Black Death is one of them, known for being cruel and cunning.

They were never to be taken lightly.

The reason why the martial artists who eat rice with a knife follow it obediently is because they know this.

“next!”

Before I knew it, my turn was being pulled, and I was starting to worry a lot about whether I should comply or not.

“What kind of kid is acting like the owner!”

A commotion began to arise behind me, accompanied by someone’s shout.

When I looked back, the road split into two. A man was walking briskly through the gap.

A person wearing white uniform, in contrast to the black room.

“Everything goes wrong.”

“Come out!”

At his appearance, the Black Death Party pushed aside those who had gathered to the left and right and greeted the man.

Thanks to that, Jang Seo-do was able to quietly leave his seat to the side. He stood at the corner of the alley and observed it with interest.

“Who is this? Isn’t it Lord Man-Gwang?”

The man who emerged from the Black Room was a man of about 40 years old. He was not very big, but he had a sharp mouth and a cunning and cruel appearance. What stood out the most was… .

‘Are you the one who has reached the peak of your power?’

He deliberately released his energy like a peacock spreading its wings.

This momentum of smiling and overwhelming the surroundings is impossible unless it is at its peak.

In the Demonic Cult, it is common enough to get hit by a master’s foot, but in the Central Plains, it was different.

There must be about fifteen or so flying and crawling Gupilbangs.

In that sense, it was clear that the author was one of the best experts within Heuksabang.

“I am the poisonous snake fox of the Black Desert.”

As expected, the expressions of the people who were quite famous suddenly darkened.

“If you’re a poisonous snake, aren’t you a member of the Black Snake faction’s staff?”

“The executives came all the way here… … .”

Chief. I get it. The meaning of Doksahori is poisonous snake, fox, and wildcat. In short, it is the sum of all cunning.

“The Black Death Room?”

On the other hand, the man in the white uniform looks at most twenty-five years old. His prominent eyes and scars on his nose and eyebrows hide his beauty.

Anyway, just looking at the outside, it is by no means at the level of a poisonous snake.

however…….

“These guys who should be living in Yunnan are coming all the way here and causing trouble.”

The young man named Man-Gwang bared his teeth at Heuk-Sa-Bang.

‘It’s a well-prepared prediction.’

Even the young man was at his peak.

Rather, when you think about his age, the poisonous snake is incomparable to the young man.

‘Who is it? Judging by the aggressive attitude, it doesn’t seem to be a political party.’

I watched the situation with greater interest.

“Hehe, why? Did we come to a place we shouldn’t have come?”

The poisonous snake continued skillfully.

“There’s no one these days who doesn’t know Cheonghae. They’re being too harsh just because they came to visit.”

“If you came to play, play around, you little punks! Don’t act like you own the place. Tell me who Cheonghae is?”

“They’re the sons of Kunlun Taoist priests.”

“But this kid!”

“Oh, right. Those guys are just stuck in the mountains. The real owners are… … the Demonic Cult’s Cheonghae Branch. Is that right?!”

Jang Yiseo’s eyes widened.

The Demonic Cult’s Cheonghae Branch.

This is the place where Cheonma gathered the military guerrillas who had their headquarters in Cheonghae and made this place their base during the past Jeongsama War.

I know that after the peace agreement, they were virtually abandoned and cut off.

‘The branch manager’s name was Manseok. Then that young man named Mankwang… … .’

“If you know, then don’t bother and get out. If you don’t want to get screwed.”

“Well, if the Demonic Cult steps in, we’ll have to bow our heads and retreat. But… … .”

The vicious eyes of the poisonous snake shine sharply.

“Those kids, if they’re not born in Cheonsan, they don’t even treat them like human beings, right? Cheonghae Branch? They don’t even think about it from above, but they just keep talking. Hehe.”

Hehe, that’s right. The Poisonous Snake’s subordinates openly responded. Man-gwang trembled in shame at this.

“shut up…….”

“Tell me honestly. Have you ever been to a demonic cult?”

“shut up-!”

Swish!

The young man drew his sword from his waist and flew forward bravely. His skill was something that could never be taken lightly.

One sword’s tip was heavily mixed with emotion, and an unstable bet shook the blade.

Even his skills are half a level higher than his opponent’s.

As if showing off his experience as a Black Snake staff member, Doksahori dodged the attack comically and stabbed him in the chest.

“Kaaaak!”

Wow! A young man is rolling around in a violent manner, even dropping his knife.

“Ha, kid. I thought you had a bad temper. You’re swinging your knife in the middle of a conversation all of a sudden? Are you trying to kill me?”

The viper approached the young man and asked him.

Hehe, that’s right! Then the Black Death members behind him laugh and answer.

“Wow, the son of the Black Swordsman tried to kill the Black Swordsman’s staff. Isn’t this a challenge to the Sado-ryeon?”

The poisonous snake, which had reached a close distance, grabbed the fallen young man by the hair and lifted his head.

“Ha, if it weren’t for this little brat’s father, I would be beheading him up there. I’ll find the item and get out quietly. Just stay put. Got it?”

The poisonous snake slapped the young man’s cheek in anger and then stood up.

“Start searching again!”

And Jang-seo looked at this with cold eyes and disappeared into the alley.
