Descent of the Demon God Chapter 182: North Sea Ice Palace (2)

Chapter 182: North Sea Ice Palace (2)

A meteor shower in the misty night sky.

“T-this makes no sense.”

“All of them have sword energy on them?”

The members of the North Sea Ice Clan were shocked at this. At first glance, they seemed to be ice swords, but then they had sword energy on them.

Besides, the way they were all arranged looked like…

“Is this… Air Swords?”

Dan Cho-ja, the young leader of the North Sea Ice Clan, opened his mouth in shock. He had heard that even a Divine Master could not wield so many swords because it requires a lot of mental strength and internal energy.

But this was beyond common sense.

“How… how can this….”

‘Father?’

Dan Cho-ja consciously looked at the puzzled Dan Cho-jin. Naturally, Dan Cho-jin was taken aback, but there was more to it.

“Sky Flash…”

Those two letters came up. The moment he heard those words, Dan Cho-ja too was shocked.

“The Sky Flas.h.!.+”

It was impossible to be unaware of this technique as the leader of the North Sea Ice Clan, who had served for generations under the Lord of the Sky Demon Order.

Sky Flash.

The absolute power of the Demon G.o.d.

When those words were heard, people thought it was an exaggerated story. How can one person handle all of these swords, no matter how rational a person is?

“… it is true.”

The rumors weren’t an exaggeration. Instead, seeing it in person confirmed it.

Kwakwakw.a.n.g!

The swords kept hitting the lava without stopping. However, if they looked closely, it wasn’t the lava being hit by the swords. They were aiming for the immediate vicinity of lava.

Kwakwakw.a.n.g!

[70% complete. The entry path of lava flows into depression.]

This was all being done by a thorough a.n.a.lysis of Nano.

Even if it was Sky Flash, it could not handle the lava. So they were digging a drainage trench to keep the lava from pouring onto the land.

“Over there! The lava is flowing down!”

There was hope on the faces of the clan members, who were shocked. However, the lava couldn’t be calmed with a simple depression inland.

Woong!

Since the lava was thick and sluggish, its movement was only slow.

“Even that can’t stop it?”

“T-the amount of lava is too much.”

To handle all that much lava, it appeared that a few kilometers of ca.n.a.ls would need digging.

Chun Yeowun said to Dan Cho-ja and his daughter, who were levelling their swords at him at the time,

“Move out of my way.”

Even though they were the first to draw their swords, they immediately stood aside.

“Y-yes!”

Dan So-young backed away too. As they moved, Chun Yeowun approached where she had previously stood and used Sky Flash.

Kwakwakw.a.n.g!

The Air Swords kept falling. The lava flowed, sinking into the draining path.

Not everyone knew what was happening.

It was then…

Kw.a.n.g!

Chun Yeowun stepped forward vigorously on the ground, and then came the highlight.

Kukukuku!

The ground shook like an earthquake starting from where he stepped on. Then the floor swelled up and immediately sunk in.

“Ooh!”

“T-the ground!”

The ground around rose 10 meters as if there was a barrier. It was because of the Earth Qi: one of the five attributes of the Spirit Beasts.

“This much should be enough.”

Kw.a.n.g!

Not stopping there, Chun Yeowun once again stepped forward on the ground. Then starting with him, the land began to freeze for several hundred meters.

Jjjkkk!

“T-the ground is freezing!”

“Unbelievable!”

The clan members were all shocked at what they had witnessed. They, too, know how to deal with cold energy, but it was their first time seeing someone freeze a land for hundreds of meters.

Chik!

The place overflowed with steam as the heat of the lava cooled down.

As the hot air caused by the lava began to cool, the clan members felt they might have a chance to live longer.

Dan So-young spoke to her father, who was still in disbelief.

“Father… that man… is he that one?”

The man didn’t block the lava entirely. However, it was no exaggeration to say that this is the safest area from the lava. No human could prevent such a disaster.

At that moment, Dan Cho-jin screamed.

“What is that way you are speaking!”

“Uh?”

“That man is G.o.d!”

She looked at her grandfather with a look of disbelief and absurdity.

She wondered what was wrong with her grandfather, who looked like he would cry any moment from the emotions overflowing within him.

‘What is with him?’

She was fl.u.s.tered and confused. So she tried asking her father when,

“Fath…!?”

He kept mumbling something as if he had lost his mind while looking at Chun Yeowun.

“The legend… it was true, the legend was true!”

His voice is full of emotions.

“Legend?”

Dan Cho-ja turned to the puzzled Dan So-young and spoke in happiness.

“So-young. For real, he is back.”

“Huh? He?”

“The Demon G.o.d has come back!”

There were only three great elders in the Sky Demon Order.

Among them, only two of them managed to help and look after their clan as the third one, Mun Ran-yeong, had gone into slumber.

They were the Martial Dual Sword clan and the North Sea Ice Clan. They both had a legend pa.s.sed down orally for thousands of years.

A legend that the seer, Seong Mu-chun, prophesied that the Demon G.o.d, Chun Yeowun, would return to the distant future.

“What?! What are you all doing?! The Demon G.o.d! No - Chun Ma has descended. Greet him!”

Whisper.

At the cry of Dan Cho-jin, all the clan members bowed their heads by falling onto the ground at once.

They, too, were members of Sky Demon Order, so there was no way they didn’t know what Chun Ma meant.

Thud!

“The clan members of the Great Sky Demon Order greet the Demon G.o.d Chun Ma!”

Dan Cho-jin banged his head on the floor as he shouted it. Seeing that, Dan So-young bit back her tongue.

Just a few hours ago, this man acted like he wanted to do nothing with the collapsed Sky Demon order, but now he was acting like this.

‘Sigh.’

She knew it for a long time, but this proved once again that her grandfather was a naïve man. In any case, since both her grandfather and father bowed, she too had to bow.

‘… that person is the Demon G.o.d?’

A name mentioned countless times in the Sky Demon Order.

Chun Yeowun, the 24th Lord of the Sky Demon Order. The second person to have the t.i.tle of Chun Ma since the first one and was said to have achieved an unprecedented name for the cult since its founding.

‘He doesn't seem to have much of an age difference from me.’

On the outside, Chun Yeowun looked to be in his early 20s, not much older than her. Still, he seemed too powerful.

‘Is that true? no matter how great the internal energy is, can humans live more than a thousand years?’

She’s currently 29 years old. She was only 2 years old when the Sky Demon Order was dissolved.

Unlike her father and grandfather, she didn’t learn the morals and teachings of the Sky Demon Order, so her mind was filled with doubts.

That was when Chun Yeowun spoke.

“I can feel the energy of the Cold Ice from Heaven cultivation from you two.”

They were Dan Cho-jin and Dan Cho-ja.

Ever since he hit the Divine Master level, Chun Yeowun was able to distinguish between energy and qi.

“You.”

Chun Yeowun said, looking at Dan Cho-jin.

Despite the arrogant tone, Dan Cho-jin didn’t talk back and raised his head as he answered in an emotion-filled voice.

“T-this.. Yes, Lord Chun Ma.”

“Even if it is stopped, for now, it will only hold on so long.”

“Ah…”

The lake of lava. Even if he blocked the area, it was only a matter of time for the lava to enter once again.

Chun Yeowun continued.

“We don’t have the luxury of time. Gather all the clan members here.”

“Huh?”

“Didn’t hear me? I said to gather all of them.”

Dan Cho-jin couldn’t understand when Chun Yeowun said to gather all of them. At that, Dan Cho-ja pointed to the nearby members.

“Lord Chun Ma. These are all our sect members.”

“The ones here?”

The people bowing on the ground didn’t seem like more than three hundred. Considering that 100 of them followed him to China in the past, the number did go up.

But Chun Yeowun meant something else.

“Then what are the ones coming from there?”

“Huh? The ones coming?”

The place Chun Yeowun pointed to was in the northeast direction.

These people didn’t try to sense the energy because of the panic they were in, but Chun Yeowun wasn’t the kind to be swayed by the flow.

“Ah!”

Some people were coming here. He tried to use his heightened vision.

‘Foreigner?’

Chun Yeowun’s eyes narrowed. It's a bit like east and west, unlike the ones from here. The clan members spoke in a hurry.

“Lord. They seem to be from the North Sea Ice Palace.”

At that, Chun Yeowun’s eyes lit up.

‘People from North Sea Ice Palace?’

In the past, they had a strangely exotic feeling like the ones living in the north, but now they seemed full-on foreigners.

“Look. Wasn’t this old man right? How can they forsake us!”

Dan Cho-jin said to his son next to him with a bright voice.

He believed that the North Sea Ice Palace would never betray them. At that, Dan Cho-ja sighed and mumbled.

“Haa… Father.”

You are trusting those people till the very end.
