The Boundless Necromancer Chapter 359

359. The best person in the world (5)

“The myth <The Natural Enemy of Everything> is activated.”

“From now on, the <Natural Enemy> effect will be applied to challenger Han Seong-yoon.”

“When <Natural Enemy> is activated, your divine power greatly interferes with the power of all beings.”

“※Beings without will cannot resist your divine power.”

“From now on, the effect of <Chaos> will be added to challenger Han Seong-yoon’s sacred use.”

“When <Chaos> is activated, the enemy’s negative emotions are extracted into faith.”

「※As the enemy’s negative emotions grow, the efficiency of faith extraction also increases.」

In the blink of an eye, the myth was activated and faith flowed into the body.

“… … .”

It seems like Cheongwoon’s feelings of rage have been reduced to faith… … .

‘That’s great.’

To be honest, I could say that it was an achievement that exceeded expectations.

Is it possible to gain this much faith with just one martial arts expert?

In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that this is truly a creative economy.

‘So you’re saying he’s an expert who has achieved divinity in his own right?’

Even if it does not reach the level of formal deity, it is not an easy level.

At least I was confident that I was a suitable partner for gaining faith.

Only then did I look down at Cheongun, thinking about the myth I would soon obtain, and then I could see Cheongun’s red, bloodshot eyes.

“For such a lowly bastard to put the sword of the Huashan Sect in his mouth…” … .”

and.

“I’ll cut that rag-like mouth into pieces so you can never talk nonsense like that again!”

Next moment.

Teueuung-!

Cheongwoon immediately screamed as if he was having a fit and kicked the ground.

Has he now forgotten in anger the vain pretense of following Taoist etiquette?

Suddenly, the Taoist figure who seemed to be the leader of a group disappeared, leaving only a swordsman who was angry to the core.

“This is the sword of the volcano!”

In the blink of an eye, Cheongun flew into the air and swung a sword covered in purple sword steel.

The sword’s path is shaken and slashed as if flower petals are falling.

However, I did not panic and immediately held out the Blood Heaven Demon Sword and attacked by mixing the sword and the sword together.

As if this kind of trick doesn’t work.

Kagagak-!

“… … .”

In an instant, sparks erupted from the collision of the swords, and dozens of sword blades were mixed together in an instant.

In fact, it wouldn’t be a problem to say that the level of strength itself is superior here… … .

Since all ability levels were still greatly downgraded, it was inevitable that a structure would be formed where one side would push forward unilaterally.

And in the process, as the opponent continued to strike with blows as if dropping rocks, we fell to the ground and were left with no choice but to focus on letting go of the opponent’s attacks.

At that, I clicked my tongue.

‘Whether it’s just strength, stamina, or agility, I’m weak in all abilities… … .’

This is the part where you once again feel the lack of physical ability.

So far, I haven’t felt the penalty of lowering all abilities that much, but not this time.

The swordsman in front of me must be strong enough to be in the top 1% of the world.

Even if that is not enough, since he has built his divinity at a low level, he also has a very small portion of the power of a divinity.

‘It’s very difficult to fight when all abilities are only in the triple digits.’

It’s so difficult to fight with someone who isn’t even an official deity at best… … .

At this point, I can feel how great the benefits I received from climbing the tower were.

But regardless of that, it wasn’t that difficult to continue the confrontation.

Anyway, no matter how much the other side attacks, if we just hit them all or throw them away, we’ll be able to hold out forever.

Giggigigigigig-!

But was it not so visible to the other person?

“Hahahahahaha… … !”

Cheongwoon’s red, bloodshot eyes flashed wide and a wry smile appeared on his lips.

It wasn’t even just that.

Before he knew it, his eyes were burning with madness.

It’s as if the outcome of the competition between each other has already been decided.

“Did you make such a fuss about a topic that was at best at this level… … !”

and.

“Ego… … !”

It was then.

“Try talking arrogantly like before… … !!”

As it was, Cheongwoon radiated a purple sword with a maddened sneer on his lips.

“I mean, try again all that bullshit you said about destroying the volcanic wave or something———!”

Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaut one another – there up there?

Pavilions erected throughout the volcanic wave collapsed.

The middle-aged Taoist in front of him was no longer interested in the destruction of the volcano sect’s buildings or terrain.

They are just trying to put this side on the defensive and build up their humble pride.

And I laughed at that.

“You look like a psychopath.”

To be honest, I did the provocation, but it was ridiculous.

Wasn’t the only thing I said against that side being that I would deal with them with the swordsmanship of the volcano faction, or that I would completely destroy the volcano faction?

To go on such a reckless rampage on a subject where the only real damage is property damage, such as to buildings from volcanic waves… … .

Rather than this side destroying the Volcanic Sect after a unilateral offensive, it is more like the other side is unable to relieve its anger and self-destructs.

Of course, I had some idea why it was like that.

‘Has my mind been polluted by divine power?’

In fact, having the sanctity of a concept is like setting a time bomb.

The divinity located in the heart of the body greatly affects the mind depending on the type of concept.

And due to the divinity of the concept, even ancient deities could not avoid feeling mental impulses.

“… … .”

Originally, it would be possible to determine victory based on the opponent’s emotional turmoil.

Perhaps it would be appropriate to take advantage of an opening and use an ability such as the power ‘Sunbo’ to teleport and cut off the person’s head.

But I had no intention of doing so this time.

In any case, you will have to actively use martial arts to clear Secret Garden’s trials, even if it is not your sole purpose.

In that case, it was decided what to do.

‘It’s the martial arts of the Volcanic Sect… … .’

It’s no different… … .

‘That’s fun.’

They soon realized that it wouldn’t be long before they achieved the results they wanted.

‘I think I know roughly.’

Only then did I slowly adjust the sword in my hand with a faint smile on my face.

‘Maybe it’s something like this.’

Unlike the swordsmanship I had learned so far, it had a softness that was different from the others… … .

“The achievement ‘Mastery of True Sect Swordsmanship’ has been achieved.”

“Exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increased Compensation] is automatically activated when the conditions are met.”

“The level of rewards obtained from achievements increases.”

“Agility increases by 4.”

And when I saw the system message appear in front of me, I smiled.

“That’s correct.”

Volcano Sword.

The essence of martial arts that is passed down only within the volcano sect.

Because now I can use it perfectly.

***

How much time has passed?

Kwazijijijijik-!

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of sword strikes occurred, creating an aftereffect that weighed down the earth.

In fact, the fight between superhumans that goes beyond human boundaries is no longer even a sword-to-sword fight.

At this point, it was closer to a battle for dominance between strong fighters born of the expression of intention rather than swordsmanship.

───!

In reality, it was similar to that.

Before we knew it, the starlight flowing through the sword bodies was devouring each other as if they were coveting each other, creating a dazzling light and clashing thoughts.

Beyond the change in the nature of the sword energy and the multiple manifestations of the change in the nature of the sword flame beyond that, a strike of strong energy that had reached the law of one was colliding.

Looking at it, Cheongwoon smiled bitterly.

‘It’s pretty good, but it’s shabby.’

It has been decided.

At this point, the gap between them cannot be bridged.

As some time passed, Cheongwoon was able to gauge the opponent’s skills through his half-crazy mind.

‘Although the level of consciousness is high, there is no trace of having learned Kang Qigong separately.’

Even if it is said that his mind was distracted due to the divine power accumulated in his heart, Cheongwoon is also one of Gangho’s masters.

Before he knew it, he had decided that the young man in front of him was worthless.

In front of the famous Jaha Swordsman of the Hwasan Sect, Han Seong-yoon was unable to attack even once and was adopting a one-sided defense structure.

It has been that way from the beginning until now.

‘You’ve been bluffing for a long time with trivial tricks.’

Only then did Cheongwoon feel a low sense of superiority rising and his eyes arched like a bow.

‘It won’t be long before I trample on your arrogant face!’

Kaaaang!

And then the starlight that formed on the blades coveted each other.

The sword of Cheongun poured out powerful energy with the properties of illusion and pleasure.

As purple starlight flowed along the sword’s trajectory, the river energy soon changed into the shape of a plum blossom and erupted everywhere.

Each time, the young man in front of him struck back with his sword with a slightly pensive expression, and as more and more time passed, Cheongwoon caught a sense of strangeness.

“… … .”

It was strange.

‘What on earth is this?’

There is no conclusion.

Since the amount of energy consumed was enormous, it would have been natural for them to already be in a state of exhaustion.

Even Cheongwoon, who had been taking various elixirs like drinking water, was now in a state where it was difficult to exert all his strength.

But there was another truly bizarre part.

‘Why on earth can’t I see any loopholes?’ … .’

Before I knew it, I could no longer find any loopholes in the sword of the young man in front of me.

no.

To be more precise, every time I tried to break the opponent’s sword, for some reason, Jaha Geomgyeol’s Chosik lost its strength and got caught up in the sword on the other side.

And Cheongwoon was greatly shocked by that.

‘Isn’t Jaha Geomgyeol a superior sword technique? How come you can’t get over such trashy shedding!’

Originally, Jaha Geomgyeol was a martial art that was established as one of the top compatibility of Plum Sword Techniques.

Correspondingly, Jaha Geomgyeol has a level of difficulty that requires that the prerequisite for initiation itself be able to freely handle changes in the nature of Geomyeom.

But how can you prevent the destruction of Jaha Geomgyeol with a mere formality?

In short, it meant that the young man in front of me had learned the tricks of competent steelmaking to a level comparable to that of Shin Gong-jeolhak.

‘There’s no way I could be stopped by such a scum-like old fashioned bastard… … !!’

But I didn’t admit it.

Admitting that fact means admitting that you have been defeated.

Therefore, Cheongwoon made a boiling sound as if he were spewing out his feelings of denial, spitting out anger and deep hatred.

“Do you think I’ll admit it…?” … ?”

Before he knew it, his eyes became red and bloodshot again, and he howled like an animal.

“You think he can handle the sword of the volcano with his stupid behavior?”

and.

“That can’t be possible—!”

As Cheongun slashed his sword straight down, the air in the area turned purple and radiated heat.

“Do you think this too can be shed with that damned pneumatic graft———!”

Jaha Gaebyeok (紫霞開闢).

The five meanings of Jaha Geomgyeol, which is represented as one of the Shingungjeolhaks of the Hwasan School, were revealed.

In the blink of an eye, a purple-colored force remained like an afterimage in the path of the sword, pouring out intense heat like the wrath of a giant.

“That’s fun.”

However, the purple glow did not last long.

“Is that also the sword of the Volcanic Sect?”

Han Seong-yoon, who had been quiet until now, spoke as if he was interested and slightly extended his sword.

It was one of those movements that Cheongwoon was very familiar with, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

Han Seong-yoon moved with an interested face, as if he was reproducing an unfamiliar technique.

That’s right… … .

Kiiiiiiiing───!

“Is this the right way to do it?”

Before I knew it, Han Seong-yoon’s sword was turning dark red and emitting light heat as if opening up the world.

And in the passage of time that felt like it was splitting that moment, Cheongwoon spoke out in shock.

The product of the hard work he put into his youth and old age over the nearly 100 years he spent in Hwasanpa was easily reproduced.

It’s no different… … .

“Jahagaebyeok… … .”

The moment when a technology that only he could handle unfolded before his eyes.

As it was, dark red starlight flowed from the path where Han Seong-yoon swung his sword, emitting a destructive light.

Looking at the dark red light that shot out in the blink of an eye, Cheongwoon was able to realize what a monster covered in human skin was in front of him.

‘ah.’

Even after seeing the starlight of Gaebyeok approaching right in front of me as if it was burning my eyes, that thought continued without stopping.

‘That’s it… … .’

There was an inevitable being that many powerful and wealthy people had been talking about that would appear someday.

‘The greatest person in the world… … .’

He was a transcendent person.

***

Before we knew it, the fierce battle of life and death was over.

Could it be that it somehow ended up in the outer part of the volcanic wave?

Even though Cheongun, the greatest leader of the Hwasan Sect, was murdered, there were no spectators, so there was no noise.

“Challenger Han Seong-yoon won against an unrivaled expert, bringing him 0.17% closer to [transcendence].”

“I have absorbed the spirit of the volcano’s greatest sword, ‘Cheongun.’”

「… … .」

Cheeeee-.

Where the sword’s starlight passed, the remnants of light and heat were shaking.

There, Cheongun, who was qualified as the best sword of Hwasan, was lying on the ground.

Perhaps, it won’t be long before the people within the Hwasan faction will find out about their leader’s death, but since it is an official meeting conducted under mutual agreement(?), there should be no problem.

therefore… … .

“The achievement ‘Smashing the Volcanic Wave’ has been achieved.”

“Exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increased Compensation] is automatically activated when the conditions are met.”

“The level of rewards obtained from achievements increases.”

“Agility increases by 20.”

Now was the time to enjoy the rewards obtained from destroying the volcanic wave.

‘It’s definitely a good reward.’

Really… … .

It was fun.

Could it be that a corner of the volcanic wave became half-ruined due to a sudden clash between rivers?

I smiled when I saw the system message that suddenly appeared in front of me.

Only now did I realize that I had come close to clearing Secret Garden’s ordeal.

“With this, you’ve eliminated one competitor.”

Perhaps, since we eliminated one of the old factions that were the mainstays of Moorim, the compensation seems to be generous… … .

To be honest, I found it very appealing.

Did you think that such a great achievement would be achieved when you only eliminated one volcanic wave at best?

Perhaps if we eliminate another one of the old file rooms, we may receive another big reward like this one.

‘At this point, they are giving at the level of a generous tree?’

It’s not even just this.

Thinking about the hidden rewards (?) of elixirs and secret rewards hidden throughout the volcanic waves, I couldn’t help but whet my appetite.

Of course, we were not able to gather enough faith to create a new myth, which was one of our original goals… … .

Even so, it was clear that if time passed and all of Gupailbang were finished, the myth related to martial arts could be completed.

At the very least, I was confident without even thinking about it that there would be more places to suck honey compared to other trials.

‘That’s awesome.’

and.

「Use the command of the volcanic sword ‘Cheongun’ to permanently increase your stats.」

“Strength has increased by 47.”

“Agility has increased by 43.”

“Stamina has increased by 46.”

“Magic power has increased by 41.”

“Durability has increased by 47.”

“Concept has increased by 4.”

Before I knew it, the final reward, as sweet as dessert, was arriving.

“Conditions satisfied.”

“The conversion and acquisition of unique characteristics has been determined by random probability.”

「Absorbs the unique characteristics of the volcanic sword ‘Cheongwoon’.」

Tamcheon (貪天).

One of the detailed effects obtained by reaching a level beyond the border of Necromancy.

… … It was an ability that could be obtained by consuming spirits to extract unique characteristics at random probability.

「Acquire the unique skill ‘Sword Area (A)’.」

Now it was shining.
