Episode 313: What if it weren’t for me?
The usual sly and playful leader of the Pungcheon cult and the current leader were completely different people. An unapproachable majesty emanated from him.
The reaction of the ghosts in the spot was different from when Geommu-geuk appeared. They showed curiosity and open hostility towards Geommu-geuk.
But they didn’t dare do that to the leader of the Fengchun cult. They too had seen the hell that unfolded beyond the open door. The corpses of ghosts strewn about there.
The leader of the Pungcheon Church slowly walked through the ghosts and up to Geommugeuk and Hwanyeo.
At his appearance, Gwi-suk’s expression, which was sticking her head out of the kitchen, hardened. Everyone could appear, but one person who should not appear had appeared.
Seeing that reaction, Geommugeuk had this thought. Maybe these two people knew more about the Pungcheon Church leader than he did.
The leader of the Pungcheon sect walked up to where the two people were and looked at Hwan-yeo and spoke coldly.
“Is that you? You bitch who touched my disciple.”
For a moment, Hwan-yeo’s expression twitched. Where had she ever heard such a curse word? If she had, would she have endured it?
But she didn’t dare ask back, ‘Was that pathetic girl your disciple?’
Geommugeuk looked at the leader of the Pungcheon sect and smiled.
I never thought the presence of the leader of the Fengchun sect would be so solid in the midst of illusions.
“In the illusion, the leader is a heavenly horse.”
The shoulders of the leader of the Pungcheon sect rose to the sky.
“If it weren’t for me, why were you dragged all the way here?”
“I believed in you, Reverend.”
While exchanging pleasantries, the leader of the Pungcheon Church asked with his eyes, “Have you figured out what you need to know?” Geommu-geuk shook his head slightly.
Then, as if he wanted to find out for himself, the leader of the Pungcheon Church asked Hwan-yeo.
“The Yin-Yang Soul Reversal Technique is a soul-binding technique of the Blood Cult that was lost a long time ago. How did you learn it?”
Hwan-yeo didn’t say anything. The leader of the Pungcheon clan didn’t know her, but she knew the leader of the Pungcheon clan well. The name she heard the most while learning illusionism was not Cheonma or the leader of the Murim clan, but the leader of the Pungcheon clan.
“So you, the famous one, have become a dog of the Demonic Cult.”
Geommu-geuk watched how the leader of the Fengchun clan would react to her provocation.
He was the leader of the Pungcheon sect who would always fight back against Gowol’s provocation.
He clearly showed us the difference between how we treat our friends and how we treat our enemies.
“Isn’t a dog a hundred times better than people who secretly plot behind your back?”
Just then, the ghost behind me rushed in and made a surprise attack.
The moment the bastard tried to bite the neck of the leader of the Pungcheon sect.
The leader of the Fengchun sect quickly turned around and grabbed Gui-hon by the collar.
“Where did you learn such bad things? You’re just like your master, biting from behind!”
The leader of the Pungcheon sect slapped Gui-hon on the cheek.
It seemed like a playful slap, but the movements of the Fengchun Sect leader’s hands contained the magic of extreme illusions.
A light appeared for a moment in the soulless ghost’s eyes, but then the light disappeared.
dump.
The ghost that had fallen to the floor was a corpse.
Again, the ghosts that had been in the same place as the ghosts that had died earlier rushed in.
This time too, the leader of the Fengchun Church dealt with them naturally. After lightly subduing them who were rushing at him, he ordered them to headbutt him in the face.
Phew!
This time, the eyes of the two ghosts shone brightly and then completely went out. They did not die from the shock of the collision. It was because of the vertigo contained in the hands of the leader of the Fengchun sect.
The ghosts all stood up from their seats and screamed.
Keeheeheeheeheehee.
It was a haunting song that shook people’s hearts.
The sound of the sword dance was controlled by the self-defense power of the sword dance.
The leader of the Pungcheon sect shouted.
“Be quiet, you guys!”
The deafening sound of his shout, which resounded like the roar of a lion, was gone.
The moment when all the ghosts were scared.
Gwisuk recited the mantra softly. Then, the ghosts’ bodies began to emit spirit energy all at once.
Hwan-yeo also took a step back and began to recite the spell.
Then, as if the unmanned person had taken a potion that amplified their internal energy, madness flowed from the ghost’s eyes. It felt as if they, who had become twice as strong because of the ghost, were becoming twice as strong again.
However, the Sword Dance did not stop them. The easiest way to end this fight would be to kill those two, but Hwan-yeo absolutely could not be killed. He had to use the great law to remove the yin-yang reverse soul magic that was on Cheong-seon. It was also the last chance to find out about Hwan-wang.
The ghosts on all sides rushed at him all at once, emitting a vicious aura and murderous spirit. They swung their swords, aiming for vital points. They swung, scratched, bit, and tore while emitting a suffocating spirit. Their entire bodies were truly weapons.
The leader of the Pungcheon sect took the lead in dealing with them.
He personally showed us how he managed to get through the countless ghosts outside the door.
The leader of the Fengchun sect moved faster than expected. The assumption that he would be weak in martial arts because he was skilled in illusions was a prejudice.
The leader of the Pungcheon sect walked among the ghosts. He used light techniques as if he was dancing, and tapped their foreheads and chests with his palms.
It was a method that seemed light, but was by no means light. The ghosts that had been going crazy at the gesture fell down like straw bales.
Black energy rose from the bodies of Hwan-yeo and Gwi-suk. Their chants became faster, and the ghosts became more powerful.
The ghosts that filled my stomach made me suffocate. The Heavenly Horse Guardian Spirit activated even more powerfully and protected my body. If it weren’t for the Heavenly Horse Guardian Spirit, it wouldn’t have been easy to endure this energy.
On the other hand, the leader of the Pungcheon Church faced them without any hesitation, just like the first time.
They used ghosts as shields to block attacks, and sometimes carried them around like dolls and swung them around. Every time they were hit on the cheek, the back of the head, or the stomach, they turned into corpses.
As they disappeared one by one, Hwan-yeo and Gwi-suk’s expressions became more and more hardened. In the end, they gave up on reciting the spell. They decided that it was no use with these people.
Then the remaining ghosts turned into corpses even faster.
Phew!
The leader of the Fengchun clan landed a solid blow to the last ghost. The ghost, whose body was completely shattered, flew past the two men and crashed into the wall.
In an instant, all the ghosts inside collapsed and turned into corpses. It was awkward to call them corpses since they had no souls to begin with.
Gwisuk and Hwanyeo looked at each other. I didn’t expect that Gwihon would be able to kill the leader of the Fengchun sect, but I didn’t expect that he would be able to handle all the Gwihon without a single injury.
I was truly amazed by the sword dance.

“I didn’t know the leader was this quick-witted.”
“I lost weight because of Gowol’s nagging.”
It was cool to see the Pungcheon Church leader show off his skills, like when someone you didn’t know was a painter paints or someone you didn’t know was a musician plays an instrument.
Just looking at those eyes now, you can tell. Even in situations where he would normally be acting all sorts of coquettish, he was looking at the two with deep eyes. He never let his guard down on the battlefield.
As if the real fight was about to begin, Gwisuk stepped forward.
Staring at him calmly, the Fengchun Sect leader spoke to Geommugeuk.
“The ghost is strong. Be careful.”
He did not look down on Guisuk.
Gwisuk came out with brisk strides, and the leader of Pungcheon also walked out to greet her.
“You are a disgrace to the martial arts world.”
Gwisuk also pointed out that the leader of the Pungcheon sect had joined hands with Geommu-geuk. He thought that was his biggest weakness, but that was because he didn’t know what kind of relationship the leader of the Pungcheon sect had with Geommu-geuk.
The leader of the Pungcheon sect nodded.
“I am a disgrace. What are you? Are you the pride of the new martial arts world?”
Since I had obtained the Go-wol and Geom-mu-geuk, I wasn’t angry at all even when I heard that I was being shamed. If it were before, I would have been jumping for joy.
“If you want to insult someone, you have to reveal who you are. Who are you?”
What would they say if they were operating under a secret identity?
Instead of answering, Gwisuk called out to his subordinates in the kitchen.
A crowd of people dressed in monk’s attire came out. There were so many of them that it made you wonder if there were really that many people in that kitchen.
There were nine of them. All of them were holding square kitchen knives. Red ghosts flowed from their eyes and knives.
They were not living beings either, but they were overflowing with a much stronger spirit energy than the ghosts that had rushed in before. If the ghosts were disorganized, these guys were well-trained warriors.
This time, the sword dance came out.
“I will deal with them.”
The leader of the Fengchun sect looked at the Geommu sect. There was worry in his eyes. Even though it was Geommu sect, this was a world of illusion.
“I think the next one will be stronger, so I’m going to deal with the weaker ones first.”
The leader of the Pungcheon Church shook off his worries at the leisure of the Geommu Theater. Well, if you don’t trust Geommu Theater, who can you trust?
On the other hand, the spirit of the masters became even sharper. They were people who only existed in illusions, but they understood human speech and even had emotions.
The guys rushed towards the sword dance.
Shh! Shh! Shh!
The sword that flew in with a sharp chopping sound caused a change.
Their attacks were fast and varied. They even used perfect passing techniques. In an instant, dozens of sword lines wove the air.
Champ champ champ champ champ champ!
This time, Hwan-yeo and Gwi-suk tried to pressure the sword dance with their spirits by reciting the spell again.
Then, the leader of the Pungcheon sect shouted a prayer and blocked their energy.
At the border where the sword dance and the monks were fighting, two energies clashed. It was a battle of wits, but the leader of the Pungcheon Church did not give up.
Crunch!
The Black Magic Sword of the Sword Dance Theater cut the chest of the first attacker. The attack went deep enough to cut the body in half, but the opponent did not fall.
The second one was the same. Even though his heart was pierced, he did not fall. No fatal wound could stop them.
Unlike the ghosts, they were ones that could not be killed unless you found the exact method of destruction and stabbed them.
Even though they were pushed back by the internal energy of the leader of the Pungcheon Sect, smiles appeared on Hwan-yeo and Gwi-suk’s faces. They were certain that no matter how much the leader could fly and crawl, he would not be able to deal with them here.
If Geommu-geuk hadn’t put blood-curdling essence in his eyes, and if he hadn’t received the divine eye technique, this fight would have been a bloody fight as they had expected.
However, when I focused on them using my Blood Anxiety and Divine Eyes, a part of their body was glowing blue. For some, it was their arm, and for others, it was their left knee.
How could they be a match for the swordsman when he knows exactly where to stab?
The Dark Shadow, Flash, and King of Hell that had been saved were used in succession. The Wind God’s Sabo had become faster and more precise than before. The sword dance was so powerful that the onlookers could not help but be surprised.
In a flash, the sword dance moved as if it transcended time and space.
As I stabbed my sword directly at the bluish-glowing destruction method, those who seemed ready to attack me even if their necks fell off fell to their deaths.
Every time the surprise of Hwan-yeo and Gwi-suk continued, the guys fell.
Gui-suk tried to intervene in the middle, but couldn’t find the right moment. The sword dance didn’t reveal any weak points, so if he intervened without care, he would surely die together with the sword.
In that way, the nine concubines were scattered around as corpses in an instant.
Gwisuk asked with a surprised face.
“How did you find out about the destruction method?”
I was amazed at how I could see that.
Geommugeuk expressed his gratitude to the leader of the Pungcheon sect.
“Thanks to the pastor.”
If those two people hadn’t blocked my spirits, my body would have been much heavier. Even if I had seen the destruction method, it wouldn’t have been an easy fight. The leader of the Pungcheon sect also played a big role in this fight.
Gwisuk misunderstood that gesture of gratitude.
“You really are a coward.”
It was believed that the leader of the Fengchun sect had taught them the method of destruction. In some ways, this was true. The blood-seal water was also a sacred water of the Fengchun sect.
The leader of the Pungcheon Church did not make any excuses.
“Who are you to call cowardice when you can give up something that won’t kill you even if your heart is stabbed?”
After saying that, the leader of the Fengchun sect looked at Geommu-geuk. The two of them stared at each other in the air. They were worried about each other a lot, but at the same time, their trust in each other was growing. This was the first time they had fought properly like this.
This time, Hwanyeo stepped forward.
“It won’t be easy this time.”
Blood began to drip from the ceiling.
Each drop, each drop, gradually grew larger on the ground, and soon grew into a terrible monster. These truly disgusting and terrifying beings rose up one after another. They were bigger than the demons. Dozens of large monsters filled the spot.
“I don’t know how they knew the destruction method, but these blood spirits are different. Blood spirits can never be killed unless this space is destroyed.”
Indeed, the beings called blood spirits did not show any bluish light.
Geommugeuk slowly stepped back and spoke to the leader of the Pungcheon sect.
“I said I thought the next one would be better.”
“What happens next will be even more horrible?”
The leader of the Pungcheon Church read Geommugeuk’s true intentions accurately.
“Are you worried about me?”
They must have some left, so I guess he meant for you to take on a stronger enemy. How quick-witted you are.
Although he trusted the leader of the Pungcheon cult more than anyone else, Geommugeuk still believed that he would take on any enemy that was a little more dangerous.
You are the one who came to get me, but I will be the one who takes me out.
I’ll take him out without leaving a scratch on his finger.
“Is that possible? Next time, please take charge, Reverend!”
It was Geommugeuk who knew better than anyone that only by answering in this way could the next words come out.
“No way! You take over next time.”
The leader of the Pungcheon sect blocked the path of the Geommu sect.
The sword dance looked at his back.
The back of the leader of the Pungcheon sect who used to curse and whine is his back, and this back that has no fear in front of those fearsome blood spirits is also his back. The feeling that his back gives is different from that of others.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The blood spirits approached with a terrifying momentum, shaking the floor.
Even the leader of the Fengchun sect thought that it would not be easy to deal with them, so Geommugeuk was nervous inside and prepared to jump into battle at any time.
As the leader of the Fengchun sect stretched out his hand, a drop of ink fell into the air.
In an instant, the small dot grew larger and larger, creating a large black hole in the air.
“It’s dangerous!”
The moment when Gwisuk screamed with an instinctive sense of crisis!
Whirlwind, whirlwind, whirlwind!
The black hole began to swirl and suck in the blood spirits.
The blood spirits were sucked into it in an instant. It wasn’t a hole that could hold out. It was a hole that would suck in whatever it was.
The scene of those large, scary blood spirits being sucked helplessly away felt so unrealistic.
As it sucked in all the blood spirits, the black circle quickly shrank back to its original size and disappeared into thin air with a thud.
From the beginning, it seemed like nothing had happened here.
At that moment, Hwan-yeo and Gwi-suk, as well as Geommu-geuk, were standing there dumbfounded, shocked by this overwhelming illusion.
From the mouth of the leader of the Pungcheon Sect, words that only the absolute master of illusions could say flowed calmly.
“You opened it, but this is my world.”
