Chapter 19

The stakes in my thighs seem to tear my muscles sideways every time I strain my legs.
He couldn’t see where his left arm had gone, and he couldn’t see his right eye.
But he remained upright, sword in hand.
He was not afraid of death.
He wanted to strike at least one of them, to comfort the souls of his comrades, to take revenge.
But I can’t move my body anymore. All I can feel are my fingers gripping the hilt of my sword.
“Excellent.”
Of the five masked men surrounding the castle, the one who appears to be the leader steps forward.
“Standing on your own two feet after all that.”
“You.”
The robed figure opened his mouth, and blood spurted out.
“I’ll make all of you…… my companions on your way to the afterlife!”
“I hope so.”
Nodding, the masked man drew the black sword from behind his back.
“As a sign of my respect, I will kill you once and for all.”
Gongsheng raised his right arm in defiance.
He stood up like a man possessed after taking so many attacks.
It wasn’t because of his martial arts or physical strength, but only because of his determination to get revenge.
Shatter!
The masked man’s black sword sliced through the air, sharply piercing into the heart of Gongsheng.
Pow!
With a dull sound, the robed man fell to his knees without even screaming.
“He was really tough.”
The masked man who had withdrawn the sword from his heart shook his head,
Jabbering.
Low footsteps echoed off the ground.
Turning, he saw a shadowy figure stalking toward him, an iron sword in his left hand. It was snow.
“The sword…….”
The masked man squinted at the back of Bu Eunseol’s head as he walked.
His back was sheathed with the black sword worn by the trainees who had entered the Martial Arts Academy.
“Why are you wearing a black sword?”
The masked man asked.
“I thought it might be useful.”
The masked man’s eyes turned cold as he answered.
She walked in the direction of where her three companions were hiding. But with their swords in hand, further conversation was unnecessary.
A flash!
At that moment, a beam of light spread out from Bu Eunseol’s right hand.
Most of the killing vacuums were either sword techniques or sword techniques with a single strike. Bu Eunseol had quickly moved out to prevent them from making a preemptive strike.
“Evil!”
The masked man standing at Bu Eunseol’s flank let out a pitiful scream as he grabbed her by the throat.
The carotid artery had been severed in one swift stroke.
“Attack!”
The other four masked men quickly drew their black swords and attacked Bu Eunseol.
Flick, flick, flick!
Sharp sword techniques like a torrential downpour rained down on Feng Feixue’s body.
However, Feng Feixue’s body anticipated the sword paths and flattened herself on the ground.
“Aaah!”
The mouths of the masked men burst out in disbelief.
They were performing the Deathly Blood Style, a one-hit killing blow that aimed for the enemy’s yin blood with all their might.
However, when Bu Eunseol naturally fell to the ground, the sword herbs that they had exerted all their strength on completely missed.
Shhhh!
Like a flash of lightning, Bu Eunseol’s iron sword wriggled like a living snake.
“Ugh!”
Another cloaked figure was pierced through the heart by Feng Yunxue’s iron sword.
He unleashed the Sixth Sixth Sword of the Huaiwu Thirty-Three Forms, the Long Short Sangyo, the Seven Swords of the Huaiwu Thunderbolt Sword, and the Wooden Stone Heart.
“What kind of sword technique is this!”
The masked men exclaimed.
An iron sword that was supposed to stand straight, bending freely, and piercing through the yin blood?
Burrrr.
Then the tip of the sword shook, and Bu Eunseol’s sword technique changed again.
At the same time, a pitiful scream rang out.
“Argh!”
The straightened sword suddenly spun in a circle and slashed at the masked man’s side.
“He, he’s a sword demon!”
The iron sword slices through the air, and the Grim Reaper’s hand flies out.
The two terrified masked men scattered to the left and right as they unfurled their Divine Laws.
Whirrrr!
While looking at the scene, Bu Eunseol slashed the black sword on her back like a halberd.
Fuwuk.
The light weight and short length of the sword flew straight and stabbed into the back of the masked man who was running to the right.
But the masked man, who was retreating to the left, continued to run.
“I’m alive!
As the masked man ran, shouting for joy, he suddenly saw a black shadow standing in the distance.
It was Gongsheng, who had been stabbed through the heart.
“How did he do that?
How did he get back on his feet after being pierced through the heart?
“No way.
The masked man suddenly recalled the knowledge of the human body that he had learned from his superiors in the ultra-secret academy.
‘The heart is in a different position.
If you were to draw a center line on the human body, the heart would be close to the center line, not to the left.
However, there are some people whose heart is slightly different from the rest of us.
“I’ll kill you again!”
As he rushed forward, Bokmu unleashed all of his anger into his sword technique.
All the anger and helplessness he had felt at the hands of Bu Eun-sul was poured out on Gwanseong.
But there was something he hadn’t thought of…… He had no regard for his own life.
“Die!”
He didn’t care that his sword was plunging into his heart, he just charged at the masked man’s body and thrust his iron sword into it.
Fuuk.
The pupils of the masked man’s eyes froze in midair as the iron sword pierced his heart.
He didn’t even have time to scream, he was dead.
“I will finally get my revenge…….”
Looking down at his trembling hands, Gongsheng sank to the ground.
“I …… did.”
With so many fatal wounds, he should have been dead.
But the determination to get revenge had kept his soul attached to his body.
“I did it…….”
A faint shadow loomed in front of the smiling royalty.
It was Bu Eunseol.
“Good.”
“What…….”
“Didn’t you just say you took revenge?”
Bu Eunseol asked with a serious expression.
“I wonder how it feels to have completed your revenge.”
“Feeling…….”
A strange smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
The emotions in his eyes were tangled like threads, a mixture of feelings that could not be expressed in a single word.
Tsk.
He was unable to finish his sentence, and his eyes fell open.
“…….”
Bu Eunseol gazed at Gongsheng’s lifeless face.
Was it because all of the killers who had murdered his comrades were dead?
His eyes were tightly closed, and his complicated smile seemed to have turned into a strange one.
“Can I smile like this?
Bu Eunseol, who had been staring into space with a puzzled expression, shook her head vigorously.
“Now is not the time to indulge in such sentimentality!
The Third Pavilion of Death and Killing had already begun, and the entire island had turned into hell.
Standing there with a blank gaze, Bu Eunseol took a deep breath and ran out of the forest.
Drifting.
A grayish fog suddenly descended on the empty clearing after she left.
The gray mist poured in from all directions, gradually converging into one place and forming into a human form.
“That’s him.”
A low voice echoed from within the human-shaped mist.
“He’s using the basic sword technique of the Hua Wu Sword Gate, which is completely unusable in real life, to slash out a series of extremely lethal killing blows…….”
The voice from the fog was filled with intense curiosity and excitement.
“Now that you’ve reached the upper echelons, your final reward will be the first sword of the Hua Wu Sword Gate…….”
The voice in the fog was now filled with sadness.
“You say you’ve mastered the Beast Dao, but I don’t see any signs of deep martial arts training.”
There were many people on the island who had exceptional talent, but their skills were nothing short of extraordinary.
All of them had practiced martial arts systematically since childhood, and their bodies were built to easily master the art of extreme excellence.
Above all, they all had hidden claws that could surely deal with their opponents in a moment of absolute need.
“That’s not enough to survive in this hellscape.”
The low voice seemed to come out of nowhere, and then it disappeared without a trace.
At the same time, the fog that had gathered around the human form had completely disappeared, like snow melting.
* * *
The third pavilion was a protracted battle.
Some people used powerful martial arts to ambush their enemies, while others used excellent stealth techniques to hide themselves.
Someone would gather a group of companions, and someone would create a force that would follow him with his leadership and control.
In this respect, the Bu Eun-sul was at a great disadvantage.
Those who travel alone are hunted by those who form groups. He has no allies or enemies, only those who want to kill him.
But Bu Eun-sul doesn’t care.
The enemy he must face is far stronger than all the practitioners in the Infernal Realm combined.
If he couldn’t survive this trial, he wouldn’t be able to kill him even if he survived this place.
“Woohoo. Huh.”
Bu Eunseol’s body was covered in blood.
As soon as he exited the forest, four boys with whips as thin as paper had pounced on him.
They were trainees who had mastered the White Horse Manger’s White Horse Manger Technique.
Crack. Pow!
They surrounded Bu Eun-sul and repeatedly stretched and shortened three sheets of white horses at will.
It was the white horse martial artist’s poisonous jinjing method.
Ping, pang!
Each time dozens of white horse stones were thrown, the sound of a crash and explosion resounded simultaneously.
Bu Eunsul used her amazing reflexes to dodge the dozens of white horseshoes that rained down on her like rain and tried to fight back.
Evil!
He broke through the formation and slashed at the wrists of the white horseshoe wielders.
Ting!
Bu Eunsun’s eyebrows shot up into the sky.
The iron sword had only cut the sleeve, but not the wrist. All of them had transparent white horseshoes wrapped around their wrists or major joints.
“Hua Wu Sword!”
One of the boys wielding the white horseshoe exclaimed, recognizing Bu Eunseol’s sword technique.
“Don’t give him a chance to use the sword by unfurling the spirit manger!”
As time went on, the clouds grew thicker, and Bu Eunseol’s robes were stained with blood.
But his legs were still steady, and his eyes burned even more.
Ping!
One of the four strands of white horseshoes that moved like a snake wrapped around Feng Feixue’s iron sword.
“That’s it!
The boy who had grasped the iron sword with the white horseshoe inwardly shouted in joy.
Swordsmen who have mastered the art of swordplay consider it a disgrace to have their weapons taken away.
Not only would it be a psychological blow, but it would also turn this fight into a duel.
“No!”
The boy’s eyes widened in disbelief.
A clang.
Bu Eunsul threw down the sword he was holding without hesitation.
Thud.
He drew the black sword he wore on his back and resumed his sword techniques.
He had never thought of himself as a martial artist, and he had never staked his pride on a weapon.
“Big.”
Seeing that, the boys were greatly embarrassed, and their movements slowed down a bit.
A flash!
The white horse’s attack that had been pouring down like a torrential rain slowed down for a moment, and Bu Eunsul took advantage of the opportunity.
Shatter, shatter, shatter!
He alternately used his swift sword and crossbow to push them back, and quickly moved out of the range of the Walling Gold Photograph.
“…….”
Even though he had escaped from the Qin Clan, Bu Eunsul hadn’t fled, and was still holding his black sword.
The boys felt a shiver run down their spines as they watched him grip the bloodied sword.
-This guy… is strong.
His wounds are getting worse.
The boys felt a pressure, as if an invisible hand was slowly grasping the trunk of their necks.
“What are you scared of!”
One of the boys clutching the white horse shouted at his companions.
“Have you forgotten what the captain said, that if we unleash the Walling Gold Picture, we can defeat anyone!”
“Captain?
Bu Eunsul’s brow furrowed as she stood still.
So there was a boss leading these four boys?
“Good! Let’s try it!”
The boys with a hundred times more courage began to swing their white horses.
Swish, swish, swish.
The transparent white horseshoes glowed with golden light, and dozens of snake shadows flashed by.
They were trying to activate the Walled Gold Picture again.
“……!”
Just then, the boys wielding the white horses stopped moving.
Dada-dada-dada.
From somewhere, a horde of them were coming toward them.
