Chapter 105: Guardian Hall (2)

If it hit, his legs and neck would be literally cut off .

Kang! Kaaang!

Kang-jun swung his sword swiftly and destroyed the waves in front of him .

‘I'm surprised . How can such an attack be possible?’

The Heaven’s Blood Sword Style’s two skills didn’t have cooldown times .

However, since the action itself was so large, it took more than one second to use it again .

Particularly, Heavenly Unyielding Slash should take two seconds .

Yet this guy had just used it at the same time . The direction had also been adjusted .

If Kang-jun could do that, he would be stronger than before .

Anyway, he had those questions as his sword moved through a gap .

Seokeok!

He cut the opponent’s neck and the enemy disappeared in a puff of smoke . .

[2,000 chaos power has been acquired . ]

The acquired chaos power had doubled .

Sususu .

Meanwhile, two more men showed up . Looking at the atmosphere, they had the same combat power as the previous man .

One of them gazed at Kang-jun and said,

“Don’t look with just your eyes but with your heart . That will lead to enlightenment in Heaven’s Blood Sword Style and transcendence . ”

Transcendence! Before Kang-jun could express his surprise, the man spoke again in a blunt voice,

"Additionally, the chaos power gained here will reinforce the wings without failing . This is a chance that won’t come twice! The longer you last without dying, the more you will get . ”

As soon as the conversation was over, a flash flew from the man’s sword . It was the same for the man next to him .

Flash! Flash! Flash!

How many Heavenly Cuts were flying toward him?

Kang-jun felt uncomfortable but he concentrated and blocked them . Then he ran forward and cut the men .

Chwack! Chwaack!

The man didn’t scream as they disappeared into smoke .

[2,000 chaos power has been acquired . ]

[2,000 chaos power has been acquired . ]

In an instant, he acquired 6,000 chaos power .

-Chaos power needed to upgrade to Stage 6: 6000/256000

If he killed 125 people in the future, he would be able to obtain the necessary chaos power to strengthen it to Stage 6 .

The chaos power gained here wouldn’t fail! If the words were true, it meant that Stage 6 could also succeed .

Kang-jun’s heart beat wildly .

Then that meant he had to survive even if his bones were broken .

Sususu .

Four more people showed up . Then five people, six, seven . . .

Kang-jun continued knocking them down in a trance .

After some time . . .

Kang-jun found himself using two Heavenly Cuts simultaneously .

It was also possible to use three at a time .

It was the same for Heavenly Unyielding Slash!

What was going on?

It was a moment of enlightenment . It seemed like he had been influenced by watching the men using the skills .

From then on, using Heaven’s Blood Sword Style was much easier .

Why did he suddenly feel like a child who had grown up?

He was convinced that his swordsmanship had gone up another level .

It felt like breaking through a gigantic wall that he hadn’t been able to overcome while levelling up .

The only certain thing was that he had become extremely strong!

‘Is this the meaning of Rainkar’s words?’

Kang-jun finally understood what he was talking about .

‘Therefore, given the chance and no matter how painful the process, you must concentrate and gain enlightenment .

That enlightenment will give you greater strength than hunting monsters overtime will . ’

Those were his words .

His level hadn’t changed but his attack power had increased by several times .

Simply raising his level wouldn’t have allowed him to break an insurmountable wall .

Sususu .

However, the moment that Kang-jun gained enlightenment . . .

The men fighting Kang-jun disappeared and a new man appeared with an atmosphere incomparable to before .

"The path of transcendence is far away . You have just found the entrance to it . ”

He immediately wielded his sword after speaking .

Flash!

Despite being 20 metres away, the flash from his sword reached Kang-jun .

Paak!

Kang-jun was startled and blocked it quickly .

"Ugh!"

Kang-jun was pushed back 10 metres . He blocked it with his sword but it felt like he was hit by a hammer .

'What is this?'

It was clearly Heavenly Cut .

Yet it was shot from a distance like an arrow being fired .

Flash! Flash!

This time, two flashes came flying . Kang-jun rolled his body and avoided it .

Kwaang! Kwaang!

After being hit by the Heavenly Cuts, the ground shook like a bomb had exploded .

Kang-jun ran forward and wielded his sword .

Kakang! Kang! Kakang!

The two swords collided . It wasn’t easy to find a gap when the man seemed to have a perfect Heaven’s Blood Sword Style .

Seokeok!

Still, Kang-jun succeeded in cutting the man’s neck .

[3,000 chaos power has been acquired . ]

However, this was just the beginning .

Soon, there were two men with the same abilities .

'Shit! I have to win somehow . ’

By the way, he didn’t like the idea of gaining enlightenment blindly . The enemy became stronger whenever he became enlightened .

That made filling up his chaos power more difficult .

However, even so, he couldn’t not receive enlightenment .

Perhaps, it was more important to gain enlightenment than to raise the level of his wings .

‘I have to endure as long as possible!’

Kang-jun fought desperately .

This was a place he couldn’t enter twice .

If he could upgrade his wings one more time, he wouldn’t feel any regret .

Meanwhile, in the time that Kang-jun was the Guardian Hall . . .

Yoo Seung-hwan – Hardis was shocked at his base in the Seyoung building .

Originally, it had been normal for his military adviser Anas, a shadow sovereign, to meet him .

Additionally, a scroll from Commander Heksia should have arrived .

However, what was this?

He suddenly saw a woman who was waiting for him .

The face of the woman wearing a red robe was beautiful but her bloody red eyes gave her an eerie feeling .

"Don’t be surprised, Hardis . My name is Kelnia . I came here under the name of Colladikus .

“W-what are you talking about?"

Yoo Seung-hwan freaked out . He didn’t know why a subordinate of the Second Demon King Colladikus had showed up here .

Kelnia stared at him coldly .

"Did you forget? You are now a subordinate of Colladikus . ”

“W-what is this?”

Yoo Seung-hwan’s expression became stiff .

He suddenly recalled the dream he had the day before yesterday .

"Then that wasn’t a dream?”

"You just wanted it to be a dream . However, a dream isn’t just a dream when it comes to sovereigns involved in Hwanmong . You won’t be able to turn back now that you have agreed to join Colladikus . ”

“Ohh! T-that is ridiculous . ”

Yoo Seung-hwan grabbed his hair and screamed .

No matter how he thought about it, this couldn’t be happening .

It was crazy to become the subordinate of the demon king who invaded Earth .

“Hohoho! Aside from you, quite a few sovereigns were chosen by Colladikus but you are lucky, Hardis . ”

“Lucky? What are you saying?”

"The rules of Hwanmong will no longer constrain you . There is no need to perform missions or go to hell when defeated . ”

"Really?"

"Of course . Additionally, be assured that your men are safe . ”

At the end of those words, Yoo Seung-hwan could see Anas and his troops .

After purchasing buildings, he had constantly summoned troops, so he had 2,000 orc warriors .

"Soon, there will be a great battle on the Bloody Battlefield . Most of the commanders will be called and the sovereigns will be left behind in Hwanmong . Then you can sweep away the nearby sovereigns with me . ”

Yoo Seung-hwan flinched .

“Right now, the red moon has risen . War between sovereigns is forbidden . . . ”

“Stupid person . Didn’t you hear my words? You are not a sovereign now . You don’t need to worry about the rules of Hwanmong,”

Kelnia said with a meaningful smile .

“Hohot! Why don’t you be honest? You can use this opportunity to take care of someone you don’t like . Sovereign Lucan! He is the first one we will aim at . ”

Yoo Seung-hwan was surprised . He shook his head immediately .

"He isn’t someone who can be defeated so easily . ”

"He will also be going to the Bloody Battlefield today . We can sweep away his base . ”

“Ohh! There is that method!”

"Huhut, if all the bases disappear, you know what will happen to the sovereign . "

“Huhu, of course I know . ”

There was a smile on Yoo Seung-hwan’s face .

Kelnia laughed wickedly .

"And even if he is there, you don’t need to worry . Kurao will arrive here shortly . ”

Shortly after her words finished . There was a loud sound like something heavy landed on the roof .

Kelnia’s eyes lit up .

"He is here . "

Yoo Seung-hwan went up to the roof with Kelnia .

At the centre of the extended rooftop was a huge monster with the upper body of a man and the lower body of a horse .

The centaur lord, Kurao!

He was one of the advanced lords under the Second Demon King .

Kurao looked down at Kelnia and Yoo Seung-hwan and cried out,

"Ready?"

“Yes, the army is ready to move at any time . ”

Kelnia was very polite in front of Kurao . Yoo Seung-hwan also bowed his head for some reason .

Then Kurao said to Yoo Seung-hwan,

“Hardis! Because of you, I was able to come to this place with Kelnia . If you win this battle, you will become one of the rulers of this Hwanmong and your real estate will be multiplied by thousands of times . ”

"Ohh, is that true?"

A ruler of Earth Hwanmong! He would become a thousand times richer in reality!

His heart started beating really wildly .

It was something he hadn’t dreamed of as a sovereign .

There was a smile of satisfaction on Yoo Seung-hwan’s face .

After a while, at the headquarters of Earth Hwanmong’s Defense Army . . .

Rainkar and the other senior commanders had been having a meeting when someone came towards them while shouting,

“The enemy is attacking . They are heading toward Lucan’s base . There is a huge number of them . ”

The senior commanders paled .

"Did the Second Demon King recover his power? Right now, it is extremely unfavourable towards them . ”

"If he has a lot of numbers, the disadvantage can be offset . There is no time . We should go and check . ”

The commanders moved to the Bloody Battlefield and Lucan’s base immediately .

Rainkar, who was the first one to arrive, looked up at the sky and frowned .

“The Second Demon King is coming . The three commanders as well! What are they trying to do now?”

His body instantly disappeared from the spot .

Kwarurung! Kwa kwa kwa kwang!

Rainkar and the Second Demon King immediately collided far away .

Additionally, Ligas and the other advanced commanders collided with the three demon commanders .

Kururung! Kwaang! Woorururu!

“Kikikiki!”

"Kukukuk!”

A large number of monsters descended . The horizon was literally filled with monsters .

“Go and stop them . This base absolutely can’t be taken . ”

1st Commander Binhaim ordered the other commanders . His expression hardened as he watched the endlessly encroaching army of the Second Demon King .

'He mobilized all his power here . We have the disadvantage . ’

He immediately shouted to one of the commanders .

"Tell the other commanders to come and support this place immediately . ”

“Yes . ”

Soon, all the lower commanders, who led the sovereigns, moved to the Bloody Battlefield .

At that moment . . .

The sovereigns under the Second Demon King, including Hardis, started their departure .

Among them, Hardis led 2,000 orc warriors and marched towards the Yugang building owned by Kang-jun . Next to him was the dark mage Kelnia and the centaur lord was in the front .

The first one to catch sight of them was Kajel .

Kajel, who had increased his abilities steadily due to Kang-jun’s achievement rewards, was able to see Hardis’ camp from a distance .

He immediately reported the situation to Keirun .

“Keirun! Hardis’ army is coming here . There is supposedly an advanced lord of the Second Demon King in the lead .

"Hrm . "

Keirun didn’t panic . It was somewhat surprising but he had experienced this situation several times as a sovereign .

Therefore, he knew that the Second Demon King might attack this way .

No, it was what he had been hoping for .

Now, he had some justification for a conquest war .

It was why he had been so passionate about increasing the power of the base while the red moon was up .

‘Hardis! I feel compelled to thank you . ’

There was a sneer on his face .
