Chapter 283 - Emergence (2)
While Hing Wunja was furious within the mansion, there were seven figures hurrying through the cave where the secret passageway led them out. It was Chun Yeowun’s group. Hu Bong grinned as he heard the noise coming from the far end of the tunnel behind him.
“Hehehe. They must have come into the mansion now.”
“Good.”
It was Yang Danwa who came up with the plan. Of course, it was thanks to Hu Bong and Hou Sangwha who acted as patients that they managed to take out Godly Doctor Gam Rosu with them.
‘Nngh!’
Bakgi’s face was red. Hu Bong was injured, so Bakgi volunteered to carry Gam Rosu on his back, but she was very well-built with heavy muscles, so she was heavier than Bakgi thought.
“Hmph. You’re weaker than you look!”
Gam Rosu spoke to Bakgi and Bakgi brought up his internal energy. He couldn’t hold her up with just his physical strength alone.
“We have no time to waste. Come on.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
Yin Moha ordered as they ran. There were too many enemies so it was likely that the people left at the mansion wouldn’t last long. They had to get out of Sword Creek while the fights went on at the mansion. After a while of running, they saw the end. But the exit was blocked.
“It’s blocked!”
“It’s just blocked by a simple rock. You can just push it out.”
Gam Rosu spoke and Yin Moha nodded and pushed the rock. With her powerful energy, the rock was pushed out.
“A light!”
With the rock being pushed out, light came into the cave. It wasn’t morning yet, so it was still a bit dark outside. The rock was pushed out all the way and dropped. They saw the cliff on the opposite side. However, there were many people at the other end and Yin Moha and the others turned grim. There were at least over 20 enemies. It seemed not all of them had entered the mansion.
‘At least the old man isn’t here... or any other powerful warrior.’
If there was, then it would be dangerous. These 20 enemies didn’t seem to be much of a threat.
“I’ll make a path. Stay close.”
Yin Moha spoke and all of them nodded. She ran quickly and jumped across a thirty-meter range. As soon as she got down on the ground, she pulled out her sword. She then charged at masked men nearby, and they tried to defend but...
“ARGH!”
The third formation of True Demon Sword cut their necks immediately, killing them. Yin Moha then tried to attack the others, but one masked man blew the whistle that he had on his neck.
‘No!’
She knew what the man was trying to do, so Yin Moha threw bullet force qi at the man. The force qi shot past in trying to cut down the man, but other masked man pushed the man with the whistle.
‘Dammit!’
Yang Danwa held on Hu Bong and jumped. All of Yeowun’s members then jumped across as they all heard the whistle.
But it was too late. Masked men began gathering after they heard the whistle. The number was much more than they first thought. It was even curious how this many people came into Sword Creek.
‘There’s more than a hundred.’
How many were here? They thought the old man from the inn was alone, but that wasn’t true. Then powerful energy came down at Yin Moha.
‘Ugh!’
She quickly raised her sword to defend. It was bullet force qi. She used 100% of her energy to defend, but the power of bullet force qi was so strong that she was pushed back until the energy dissipated.
‘This presence..’
She turned toward the direction where force qi came from.
“Ah...”
It was the old man from the inn. She hoped the man would be inside the mansion, but it seemed he had been waiting outside. The old man seemed happy to find them out here.
“Hahaha... as expected.”
“...”
“I didn’t think there was only one way out from that place.”
The old man thought there would be multiple entrances so he had waited outside. The old man glanced over and glared at Gam Rosu.
“Oh... I didn’t know the Godly Doctor was an old woman.”
He recognized the Godly Doctor right away. He had seen the other people once, so it wasn’t hard for him to recognize the doctor. Mun Ku then gritted her teeth when she saw the face of the old man. Rage came back to her as she saw the person who led Yeowun to his death. But Yin Moha and Yang Danwa were frustrated by the situation.
‘This is bad.’
It was hard enough to handle the old man, but the man standing next to him was also problematic. The man didn’t have any mask on like the old man, but he seemed to be very powerful. It was likely that he was at least an entry-level superior master warrior.
“Master Lee. I’ll take care of those two, so get the rest and bring back the doctor.”
“Yes, sir.”
The old man pointed at Yin Moha and Yang Danwa. He didn’t like that he had to retreat before getting rid of them twice. The old man then pulled out a thick sword from his waist.
“Shall we start then?”
The old man disappeared and quickly closed in on Yin Moha.
“Ugh!”
Yin Moha took steps to put distance and shouted.
“Protect Granny Gam!”
They had to have Granny Gam escape this place and take her to the Mountain of Ten Thousand. Hu Bong, Hou Sangwha and Mun Ku circled around Bakgi who had Gam Rosu on his back. There were too many enemies so they had to stick together.
[Elder Yang! I will take this old man. Kill the other man!]
[Got it.]
Yang Danwa pulled out the blade and tried to jump at the man called ‘Master Lee’ but the old man instantly turned and blocked Yang Danwa.
“Huh?!”
“Where do you think you are going? You two are with me.”
And with that, Master Lee quickly charged toward three people who were protecting the Godly Doctor. He ran straight at Mun Ku. Mun Ku brought up the energy on her both hands to defend.
‘Huh?’
Master Lee became surprised and swung his sword to his right.
“A sword?”
What was thrown at him was a rusted sword. He had to defend because he felt something being shot at him, but the power held within was too strong. Master Lee was pushed away by the strong energy contained within the rusted sword. He then used all of his energy to push away the sword. The sword crashed immediately.
“Air Sword...? Who...”
The attack was surely made through an air sword. The man then turned to the direction where the sword was thrown from. It was toward the stone rock at the cliff. But there was no one there.
‘What? What is going on... huh?’
That’s when something unbelievable happened.
“The rock is shaking!”
‘Rock? No, that’s not it,’ Master Lee thought as one of the masked men shouted. What was shaking was the hundreds of swords stuck in the wall. With the weird phenomena, everyone turned in the direction. Then the swords began to be pulled out from the wall. They floated above the ground and were aimed toward the masked men.
“What?!”
“S-swords are moving!”
All the masked men became shocked.
‘What is happening?’
The old man too seemed to be shocked from what was going on. Hundreds of swords were floating in the air, and there was something rising up from the cliff.
‘W-what?’
It was a young man with long black hair and a black robe. The man was on a black sword, rising up from it. The sight was as if the Demon God was emerging from the Demonic Realm.
“Ah.... AAAAAAH!!”
Mun Ku’s eye became large with shock, then soon turned teary and she shouted.
“Prince!!”

After climbing up for a long time using the Sky Demon Sword and the White Dragon Blade, Chun Yeowun was finally able to get out of the dangerous area. The winds died down and now Yeowun felt a lot of presences above. He could now sense further than when he was at the superior master level.
‘There are a lot.’
Yeowun became concerned. He wasn’t sure what happened while he was down at the cliff. All those people above the cliff were martial artists.
‘Yin Moha?’
Yeowun then felt familiar energy. It was the energy of Yin Moha, Bakgi, and Hou Sangwha who were missing.
historical
‘They were alive!’
Yeowun then thought he should make his way up quickly. All other presences he felt were hostile. He wasn’t sure what might happen if he didn’t hurry up.
‘I don’t think I have to do this anymore.’
Yeowun then tried to create a step up again by using air sword, but then he saw someone jumping across the cliff above. And one of the figures had very familiar energy.
‘Mun Ku!’
It was Mun Ku. There were others who were crossing the cliff. And on the other side where they were jumping off to, more martial artists were gathering, some of whom were very dangerous. It seemed one of them was the old man that Yeowun fought at the inn. He couldn’t sense him before, but now with the supreme master level, he was able to sense the old man.
‘I have to be quick.’
But the way he used the method until now was slow. Yeowun then changed his way of climbing. It was a change in ideas.
‘Wait. If I can control the sword, isn’t it better if I control it while carrying me?’
It was the Air Sword Flying technique. Yeowun didn’t know this, but there was an unconfirmed legend that there were some supreme level warriors that flew around with the swords. Yeowun had just come to this idea himself however.
Yeowun placed the Sky Demon Sword over his hand and sent energy into it. The sword began to move freely and Yeowun placed his both foot over the sword. It felt weird, as if he was stepping on nothing, but he had no time to think about the feeling. Yeowun sent energy to make his foot connect tightly to the sword and moved it to rise above. Yeowun then sensed about 150 warriors above and chose to use air sword.
Hundreds of swords floated above, waiting to be ordered. They floated as if they would charge with the flick of Yeowun’s finger. Masked warriors couldn’t move as they were tense from being aimed.
“Prince!!!”
Mun Ku shouted with tears running down her cheek. And it wasn’t only her who was crying.
“M-Master!!! You were alive!!”
“Wah!”
Hu Bong and Hou Sangwha also cried at Yeowun’s appearance. What was crazier were the floating swords around him. It was surely the use of Air Sword.
‘D-did the Lord become a supreme master warrior?’
Yin Moha’s eye turned large as she looked at Yeowun. He was at the same power up until while ago. But after hearing that he had dropped to the cliff and died, Yeowun returned in a day with entirely different power.
‘Is he really chosen by the Demon God?’
It was hard to describe it any other way. The sight of him with black robe and floating in the air with hundreds of swords actually made him more like a Demon God himself.
‘He should have died in that cliff...’
The old man saw Yeowun fall into the cliff with fire on his body. Even if it was the old man himself, there was no way he could survive from dropping into that cliff while on fire.
‘He’s different man from two days ago.’
The old man sensed Yeowun to be at the end stage of superior master level. But if he was using air sword, he was surely at the supreme master level. And if he could control this many swords...
‘It’s not just entry. He’s definitely at the supreme master level.’
This was unbelievable. Was there some treasure hidden beneath that cliff? The old man then turned to glance at the Godly Doctor.
‘No. That old woman should be carrying that.’
The old man speculated if the one he was looking for was down the cliff, but that didn’t seem likely. The old man shouted at Yeowun.
“You’re lucky to be alive! Hahaha. Welcome to the world of highest powers.”
World of highest powers meant supreme master level to the people of Yulin. Among tens of thousands of martial artists, there were only a handful of people who reached the supreme master level. Masked men were fearful of Yeowun’s appearance however, as all these swords presented were very threatening. And Yeowun floating alongside these swords made him look like a monster or a demon. The old man shouted.
“Stop bluffing and why don’t you come and fight me?! You think I don’t know that you can’t control all of those swords?”
This wasn’t a lie. The old man was also an entry-level supreme master warrior. He knew how to use air sword but he also knew that the technique didn’t work well against powerful warriors with equal strength. And there was also a clear limit as to how many numbers of swords one can control, as there was a limit to how many things one could think at once.
