The scorpion has left.
His characteristic wit and idiotic smile disappeared, and he took on a gloomy expression.
Although it seemed like he had received a difficult request to take a deep breath, Cheonhwa’s expression was peaceful.
“Okay, let’s go now.”
All they had to do was call back the coachman who was hiding in the carriage and set off as planned.
And so, the boring journey began again.
Of course, that boredom didn’t last long.
Cheonhwa was thinking that there was nothing fun to do, but as time passed, the surroundings became so busy that she began to miss the times when she had such thoughts.
“These are the real… … .”
After stopping by Anga and showing off his strength, all the clumsy, weaklings like the longhorns fell away.
Also, the watchers fell and were unable to pursue him for a while.
However, the moment I crossed the Guizhou River, the same situation repeated itself.
No, it’s much worse than before.
It was because they did not know or directly experienced what had happened in Guizhou Province, but also because there were more Sapa people in Honam, where the Black Alliance was located, and there were many wandering warriors from the Jeongpa faction who had lost their homeland, and many who were confident in their own abilities.
“Die!”
“Cover them! Grab anything and scatter them!!”
There were some who rushed in with the arrogant idea of taking down the heavenly flower, but there were also many thieves who tried to steal the items inside the carriage by sneaking up on it, and there were also some who tried to destroy the carriage instead of taking the heavenly flower and steal whatever was inside.
If I could confront Cheonhwa head-on and defeat him, it would be great because I could take back all of the demon’s fame and honor, but since I have no confidence in my military power, I will resort to all other means.
“Sir, run!”
At first, Cheonhwa punished those guys one by one.
But there were endless instances of such guys, and every time I beat up one, another would come running at me, so it was frustrating, not to mention tiring.
So he ordered his coachman to ride at full speed, and he helped them by playing a light instrument to shake them off.
“Run away!”
“Catch him!!”
Then, instead, the guys got more motivated.
Whether it was because Cheonhwa was tired or because they thought they were a burden and were avoiding them, they started to chase after them and perform lightness moves.
If I were alone, I would have flown away at a speed I wouldn’t dare chase, but I couldn’t help it since I was moving with a carriage full of luggage.
I allowed them to pursue me, and with those who had been waiting and lying in wait closing in, I was surrounded by hundreds of unmanned troops in an instant.
“Hehehe! Now there’s no place to run… … .”
“Hmm. Are they all here?”
When the crowd gathered and surrounded the wide open space, Cheonhwa asked the groom to stop his horse and looked back at them.
Now he smiled brightly as if he felt relieved.
“It was going to be like this from the beginning. It’s annoying.”
“… … ?”
No matter how strong the Heavenly Fire was, there were still hundreds of unmanned soldiers.
Even if only the known martial arts of Cheonhwa were at the peak, there was no one who was not first-class among those gathered here, and there were many masters of the highest level. There were also those who had not made it to the top 100 masters of the martial arts world, or even the lowest ranks, but had achieved the peak level of martial arts.
That’s why I was confident that with this level of power, no one other than the existing Samjeo-Owangsamgui would be able to escape.
Although Cheonhwado was listed among the Three Kings of Heaven and Earth, considering his age, many people thought that it was a nickname he earned because he had mastered a special martial art called Eumgong and had walked a strange path rather than because he had truly acquired such prowess. So they were certain that he would not be able to escape from this place safely.
However, it didn’t take long to realize how ridiculous that thought was.
“Whew-.”
whistle.
What Cheonhwa blew was not even a magic potion, but a whistle.
The moment the sound of the wind escaping through their pursed lips spread clearly as if piercing through the wide field, their faith was bound to be shattered.
Thud thud
As if drawing a circle around Cheonhwa, those who had surrounded him fell regardless of their martial arts skills.
They spoke in perfect unison, as if they had practiced together.
The King’s Chronicles.
The spirit of the overlord was contained in that thin whistle.
It was a very good method for cleaning up the leftovers.
Those who cannot handle the spirit of the sound will roll their eyes and collapse on the spot.
In the past, it was spread using gold, but what is important is the idea contained in the sound.
If it could be fully expressed, it didn’t matter what instrument it was, whether it was a flute, a lute, a zither, a piece of gold, a piece of paper, or even a whistle like it is now.
Depending on the characteristics of the subject making the sound, it may be possible to add or reinforce different powers more strongly, flexibly, or deeply.
“Ugh… … !”
“What, what is this… … ?”
With that one breath, the eyes rolled back and those chasing Cheonhwa rolled their real eyes back.
Even though they were all first-class, they couldn’t hold out like they did in the Black Tiger Room.
Because the whistle of the thousand-flower that was planned and spread out was something that even a first-class player could not withstand.
So everyone was swept away, from those who were just barely hanging on to first-class status to those who were already at the peak of their careers and were already strutting around.
The bodies of the unmanned soldiers who fell backwards spread out like flowers blooming, and although the best players who were at the peak held on, many of them staggered, vomited blood, and had expressions of bewilderment as if their energy was distorted.
“Witchcraft?!”
“No, it’s a sound… …”
“I knew that Yin Gong was effective against multiple people, but this kind of immense power… … .”
Those who are in relatively good condition are, after all, top-tier unmanned aerial vehicles.
Since they are one of only a few hundred people in the entire world who have accumulated outstanding martial arts skills, they do not lose their spirit just because of their spirit.
“… … It seems like you’re not my opponent.”
“I can’t risk my life here. I’m going to step down.”
In the first place, the Overlord’s Sword itself was not effective against those with a certain level of strength and mental power, so it was not said that it was effective, but that does not mean that it was completely ineffective.
Through that one move, they learned how great the power and ability of Cheonhwa was, and that he was a higher-level powerhouse who could emit prayers that they could not handle.
“Let’s do a joint attack.”
“Even so, it’s just a negative attack. It might be effective against those below your level, but it’s definitely weak when fighting against a skilled warrior.”
“… …Would you like to join us?”
So, the remaining ones also looked at each other one by one and expressed their intention to give up.
Among them, there were certainly those who thought that if they went all out, or if everyone gathered here joined forces, there might be a decent chance of success.
This is because the martial arts that Cheonhwa has mastered are very special.
Yin yang.
Most people looked down on it, and since it was a type of martial arts with such a history, many people did not consider it a martial art at all and considered it to be a sorcery, so it was natural that many people looked down on it.
Even though I saw all these unmanned people being subdued with a single move that didn’t even seem like martial arts, it was still the same.
If they don’t give him any distance, interfere with his performance, and use their powerful qi to attack him, they can win even if his level is higher than theirs.
Although it can effectively hit enemies over a wide area, the power concentrated on one point is bound to be weak, and it was judged that the weaknesses were also clear due to the nature of the technique.
It was an illusion that could be made because I had never seen or experienced real sound.
“What are these things? Who just sent them?”
However, no matter what they thought or decided, once they entered his territory, they could not leave as they wished.
I got up from the roof of the carriage where I was sitting, and at that moment, several more masters who were barely holding on fell to the ground.
The collar flapped, and the heavenly spirit that was temporarily made to replace the resonance bell was used, but it was not bad to use, so it rang and shook the insides of the guys again.
“… … !”
“Are you sure you want to fight? With all of us?”
At that sight, everyone standing on the ground became tense.
Some felt fear, some felt anger at Cheonhwa’s arrogance, but those who tried to run away and those who tried to fight back, all without exception, drew up their spirits to the max to be able to withstand Cheonhwa’s techniques that flew in without warning and unfold their own moves.
If Cheonhwa wants to fight, he must strike first before he is attacked.
Everyone agreed to it, so they exchanged greetings, silent glances, and sympathy with each other, each holding their weapons.
Each of them prepares their final meal in order to emerge at the slightest opportunity.
“Fighting is something that should be done when the levels are right. This kind of thing, what should I say… … .”
At that moment, the sky moved.
As I swung my hands from top to bottom as if I was lightly shaking them, a tremendous amount of pressure fell on them.
“Huh?!”
“Move, move… …!”
In that one room, the rest of the top-tier drones knelt down.
Even some who reached the peak barely managed to hold on, staggering for a moment.
“Should we call it violence?”
Pavabang!!
Then, as I swung my fist into the air, an equal amount of pressure and shock were felt throughout my body.
He struck the air and struck their bodies.
“A gust of wind!?”
“This is something different… … ?”
It was similar to a gust of wind, but it was a different force.
As they were prepared, they also prepared their own weapons and tried to counteract the attack, but the impact range of the power that Cheonhwa unleashed was not narrow.
Even if you block it with a sword, it hits the entire body at the same time, so it is difficult to block it or offset the impact without a technique similar to a strong armor such as a self-defense weapon, an external attack such as Majin’s iron ore, or the Emperor’s Incarnation of Namgung Segaju.
Thanks to that, those who had concentrated their internal energy on the tip of their swords managed to disperse some of that power, but were unable to block the other powers that struck their entire bodies and were knocked out. Only those who had focused on defense by spreading out sword screens were able to calm the trembling of their entire bodies and catch their breath.
“Eumgong, what’s wrong? Weakness? Is it certain?”
Wheeze-
BANG!!
But before I could even properly control my body, Cheonhwa’s second attack began.
At first glance, it seemed like he was just jumping off the carriage and stomping hard on the ground, but that one move caused the earth to shake and the ground to rise.
The metal plates embedded in their shoes resonated and shook the ground, and the waves created by that vibration bounced off their feet.
“Ugh!!”
Thanks to that, the guys who were barely maintaining their posture were lifted into the air with a great shock.
I tried to somehow release my internal energy, but it only protected my body and I couldn’t block the impact itself, so I just floundered high in the air.
Among them, there were attempts to improvise, release internal energy through Yongcheonhyeol, and step on the air to turn around, but even if they could turn around eight times in the air like the Yunlongdaepalshik, the pride of Kunlun, they could not escape the merciless violence of Cheonhwa that had already begun.
“Hey, kids.”
There is no need for the Ice Spirit Jade Medicine, the Wind Spirit Bipa, the Brain Spirit Geum, or the Gongmyeong Hojong.
There was no need to communicate with other spirits, including the Ice Spirit Guardian.
Pure yin-gong skill. That alone is more than enough, it’s overflowing.
“You guys, let’s get some.”
Cheonumshinkong
Clashing sound
Windy storm
Even though I let my guard down, even Margin, who was superior to them at the time, couldn’t withstand a single blow, so how could my things withstand it?
From the moment Cheonhwa made up his mind, they were nothing more than scarecrows.
All I could do was tremble and scream in time with the gestures of Cheonhwa’s hands and feet that were beating the air.
“Whew! I feel a little better now. Those guys are nothing special.”
In that way, it only took a moment at most for the hundreds of drones that had been following Cheonhwa to all fall to the ground.
It was only because Cheonhwa didn’t let them fall, but the time it took for them to lose their will to fight was much shorter than that.
“But what are those?”
Now it’s time to empty these guys’ pockets and hit the road again.
It had to be done that way, but there were more people who were caught in Cheonhwa’s eyes and senses.
There is a group approaching from afar, neither too fast nor too slow.
Even waving the flag openly.
“Demon Heavenly Swordsman. From now on, we will serve you.”
The Black Band of the Black Alliance.
Even in the Black Alliance, which had completed its system reorganization, it was one of the few armed forces that could be counted on one hand.
They had received information in advance that Cheonhwa was moving to visit the Black Alliance and came out to meet him.
Maybe he could have greeted him earlier, but he watched him quietly, perhaps intentionally, and only after a commotion broke out did he approach Cheonhwa.
I briefly considered visiting Akyang first because of the information I had received from Mine about the all-out offensive, but it seemed strange to change direction at this point.
Because you might be misunderstood as being scared for no reason.
“Okay, fine. Go.”
So Cheonhwa decided to send a messenger to Haomen and started following them.
After glancing at the Black Ming Corps, who were guiding him in a manner that made it unclear whether they were escorts or a demonstration of force, he laid down comfortably and took a nap as if he wasn’t afraid of them, who could change at any moment.
So, from then on, I entered the Black Alliance headquarters without any interference.
