Episode 241
‘This is ridiculous!’
Dokgo Jun opened his eyes wide.
A young man who came out of nowhere and helped me, claiming to be a teacher.
After instantly healing his damaged body, he began to fight the man who had made him like this, and the martial arts the young man was using were very familiar to him.
‘Isn’t that a martial art I created?’
A martial art that has been practiced like crazy to reach a level higher than that of the Heavenly Horse.
Before entering the closed training, he visited the martial arts world twice while hiding his identity in order to take control of it.
That’s how he got his nickname, Hades.
This nickname was given to him after he displayed his unfinished martial arts.
It really couldn’t be more funny.
But how does that young man manage to perform the martial arts he created?
It wasn’t much different from the realm I reached while practicing closed-door meditation.
‘Still, it’s impossible.’
Dokgo Jun has already confronted Byulrang once.
And I realized the difference in level.
No matter what ability he used, the Heavenly Demon God’s Power was useless, and the flesh that ascended the Heavenly Demon’s body could not withstand his attacks.
“This guy is nothing special either.”
Bulrang swung his scythe with a bored expression.
Then, three red cards appeared in front of me and spun around.
“It’s dangerous!”
That card had an effect that absorbed damage and unconditionally reflected it back.
Then, Jeong-Hoon took back the fist he had been swinging and fell away from Byulang.
“Wow, you’re quick-witted?”
“It’s not something that can be easily overcome.”
Jeonghoon chuckled.
‘He must mark in order to activate the red card ability.’
That card is his main ability.
Red cards force reflection with damage absorption.
Green absorbs damage and strengthens itself for a certain amount of time equal to the damage taken.
And in order to perfectly activate the red color, you need to mark it, which you could notice through Dokgo Jun.
The marking engraved on Dokgo Jun’s forehead.
That was why Jeonghoon activated Holy of Glory along with the highest level healing.
Holy of Glory cleanses everything on the designated target, and fortunately it is also effective in removing markings.
“Heh heh, really?”
Bulrang chuckled and swung his scythe again.
Then, three blue cards appeared in front of him and spun around.
‘What ability does blue have?’
Jeonghoon narrowed his eyebrows and raised his senses to the max.
At that moment, the surrounding mana began to seep into the card.
Then the cards grew in size, stopped moving all at once, and shot at Jeong-Hoon.
Chorus.
Even the cards scattered into several pieces and created a storm, surrounding Jeong-Hoon.
‘The magic is leaving!’
Junghoon, caught in the storm, felt the magical power in his body being sucked out and quickly took control.
But there was no control at all.
If this continues, all the magic power will be sucked out.
The problem is that even vitality is starting to diminish.
‘That’s amazing.’
Is this really the level of the Demon King?
Even unlike the Apostolic class, the abilities he used could not be read.
However, Jeonghoon had already experienced similar abilities before his regression.
Although it wasn’t as powerful an ability, I had fought an Apostle-level Transcendentalist who used a very similar ability.
‘Weaknesses exist.’
Jeonghoon developed the Hades Fist Technique while sensing the flow of magical power being sucked out.
[Use the invisible power.]
As I threw my fist, an invisible power was activated and the blue cards were removed one by one.
The order must not be disturbed.
The cards did not absorb your magic and vitality all at once, but were taken randomly.
The way to remove a card is to hit it while it is absorbing magic or life force.
If you touch another card, all cards will activate at the same time and it will be uncontrollable.
Jeonghoon focused on attacking only cards that affected magic and vitality.
Phagectic.
Dismissal.
Bulrang’s eyes widened at the sight of the card disappearing.
‘This is ridiculous!’
The blue card is ‘Robbery’.
It is an ability to kill a designated target by stealing their magic and life force.

Hundreds of cards swirl around, slowly eating away at his magic and vitality.
If you try to get out by touching the cards, all the cards will activate at the same time and the monster will die before it can even last a second.
It’s like a rat in a cage.
But the guy didn’t panic and just threw his fist and threw away the cards.
That means he knows how to destroy things.
“Then take this too!”
Byulang swung his scythe again.
Then a large yellow card appeared on the ground.
Kugu Palace.
Then the ground shook and Jeong-Hoon and Dok-Go-Jun groaned.
A card with the ability to control gravity.
“Ugh!”
[Use the barrier of light.]
Jeonghoon activated the barrier of light.
A legendary-grade barrier of light.
It won’t last long, but for now, it will give Jeong-Hoon freedom of movement.
[Use the invisible power.]
Jeonghoon quickly threw away the card.
When he judged that some of the cards had disappeared, Jeong-Hoon reached out to Bu-Rang.
[Use the Ruler’s Hand.]
The Ruler’s Hand isn’t just a buff ability.
It was even possible to activate an active skill that pulls in a target.
The ability was activated and Byulrang was dragged to Jeonghoon.
“This kid!”
Bulrang swung his scythe with a puzzled expression.
A red card appeared in front of him.
If you touch that card, it will be marked.
But unlike before, Jeong-Hoon did not hesitate to swing his fist.
“Ugh!”
“Hoo.”
Byulang furrowed his brows.
You probably know the markings, so why?
At that moment, the red card’s forced reflection was activated.
Nevertheless, Jeong-Hoon threw his fist at Byul-rang without any hesitation.
Of course, all of those attacks were blocked and absorbed by the red cards.
“bingo.”
Jeonghoon chuckled.
Then, Bulrang’s waist folded in half.
“Cough!”
A groan burst from Bulrang’s mouth.
[The Rune of Counterattack is activated.]
[You can return the absorbed attack.]
Absorbs all incoming attacks for 15 seconds and returns them as is.
He succeeded in striking Bulrang by using the forced reflection in reverse.
‘This is the 6th level of Hades’s martial arts.’
The reason I intentionally avoided marking at first was because the Hades’s fist technique was 1 star.
In order to inflict some damage, it was necessary to raise the level.
And by quickly removing hundreds of cards, I raised the level of Hades Fist to 6 stars in one go.
“How does it taste?”
Jeonghoon chuckled and removed the rest of the cards.
“Heh heh, this guy is really fun?”
However, Bulrang did not fall down, but instead looked at Jeonghoon with a joyful expression.
‘I guess this is not possible after all.’
Still, this was enough.
[10 minutes have passed.]
Because he succeeded in protecting Dokgo Jun for 10 minutes.
“It must have been quite spicy, judging by how pleasant it looks?”
“This is a big deal. I really want to do this properly.”
Byulang swung his scythe.
A rainbow-colored card appeared in front of him.
‘That’s dangerous.’
Red is reflected.
Yellow is gravity.
Blue is stolen.
Green absorbs.
They are all cards with dangerous abilities, but if they are rainbow colored, it means that they will display abilities that are incomparable to other cards.
But that card was never activated.
Because the new model of Bulang started to blur.
Jeonghoon felt relieved inside and provoked Byulrang.
“I guess the time for intervention is over?”
“fu*k. I got distracted by you… … .”
Bulrang ground his teeth.
“You should have checked the time carefully.”
The gamble paid off.
I spent 10 minutes wasting my time trying to catch the bastard’s attention by destroying the blue card and even using the rune of counterattack.
“… I hope to see you again. Then I will definitely kill you.”
With those words, Bulang was completely destroyed.
“Whew… I survived.”
Even if he had fully doped, he was not an opponent that could guarantee victory.
If this was a quest to kill them instead of a quest to survive for 10 minutes, it would have been a 100% failure.
Jeonghoon turned around and approached Dokgo Jun.
Dokgo Jun was looking this way with a blank expression.
‘Is that a heavenly horse?’
Sky above the sky.
Absolute.
The image just didn’t match because the character with that kind of adjective had a stupid expression on his face.
An exclamation mark was blinking above Dokgo Jun’s head.
[You have completed the quest.]
[You can learn the Heavenly Demonic Skill.]
As you complete the quest, you will have the opportunity to learn the Heavenly Demonic Skill.
‘If I receive the Heavenly Demonic Art, does that mean that the Hades’ technique has evolved?’
If I were to point out any shortcomings in Hades Ken’s method, I would say with certainty that there are none.
Although it is a perfect martial art, it cannot remain at the legendary level.
So, King Dokgo Jun.
No, you need to learn the Heavenly Demon Singong from Cheonma Dokgojun and raise your Hades Fist Technique to a higher level.
‘This is probably why quests are the ultimate path.’
The ultimate path (1).
That means there are multiple paths, and the reason Sol told us these coordinates was probably because he wanted to help us complete the ultimate path quest by evolving the Hades Fist.
‘You’re strange. How did you know that I learned Hades’ technique?’
Coordinates that cannot be guided without seeing through oneself.
I was curious, but for now, let’s start with the Cheonma Shingong.
“Where did you learn that technique?”
As the yellow card disappeared, gravity also returned to its original state.
Dokgo Jun straightened his knees and asked.
“If I tell you honestly, would you believe me?”
“…say it.”
“I come from another dimension.”
“Another dimension?”
“Yeah, they’re playing this damn game there too.”
“I see.”
The biggest reason why Dokgo Jun entered closed-door training.
It is not only to take control of the martial arts world, but also to completely destroy the demons.
“After the Heavenly Demon entered closed training, the Heavenly Demon Sect has been rapidly declining.”
“What?!”
Dokgo Jun opened his eyes wide.
Because even when he handed over to the vice-president, the Cheonmasingyo was still going strong.
“Because the number of doors through which the demons escape has increased beyond imagination.”
“…fu*k. Does that mean the penalties are piling up?”
Dokgo Jun touched his forehead.
Since I was conducting closed-door training and completely blocked off from the outside world, I didn’t even know how things would go.
“To be honest, my lifespan in this dimension is almost over.”
“… … .”
“It must be because I failed to close the door repeatedly.”
“Nakjincheon… …? Nakjincheon was just watching! No, the masters in the martial arts world?! What on earth were they doing!”
King Kwon, Nakjincheon.
Although he was defeated by his own martial arts, he was a man worthy of being called the King of Kung Fu.
I was so impressed that I revealed my real name, Dokgo Jun.
“I don’t know about that.”
“… Phew.”
“Anyway, I need strength.”
“Strength? You have already perfectly demonstrated the martial arts I created.”
“No. I want to learn the Heavenly Demonic Art perfectly.”
“Cheonma Shingong?”
“yes.”
Cheonma Shingong.
It is a completely different magical art, although similar in form, because it was created using divine power.
The Heavenly Demon God Art, which is said to be wielded only by Heavenly Demons.
What Jeonghoon wanted was that Cheonma Shingong.
“… It’s meaningless. Even the Heavenly Demon Sect couldn’t defeat even one of them.”
I’m talking about Bulrang.
“But it’s not like I can just sit back and watch.”
“… Then can you promise me just one thing?”
“What is it?”
“I will completely destroy the demons.”
“… This dimension is a crowd.”
Because it’s already destroyed.
That’s why it’s being used as a special dungeon.
Dokgo Jun shook his head.
“I know. I felt it deep in my bones when I dealt with him.”
That you can’t do it on your own.
“then?”
“Protect the world you live in. So I hope you will continue the legacy of the Heavenly Demon Sword.”
If the dimension is destroyed, the lineage of the Heavenly Demon God will also end.
However, if the Cheonma Shingong is passed down to Jeonghun, the lineage will never be broken.
Jeonghoon nodded.
“Let’s do that.”
