Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation

How a martial artist builds his skills—

The first step was to understand the flow of energy.

Then find the right cultivation method which goes well with the body and practice constant cultivation and meditation.

Normal people who built up energy within their bodies would become healthier, able to fight off diseases, prevent aging, and would walk the path of a long life. On the other hand, there were often cases where a person’s energy went beyond his natural ability, and warriors paid attention to that part.

More and extremely concentrated energy through the internal energy.

And assuming that one trained every day, if they continued training for around 60 years, they achieved what was commonly referred to as 60 years worth of internal energy.

Here too, you could accumulate energy more quickly through several methods. Either learn the process for health or realize the five meanings behind martial arts.

Or make sure that it opened up the blocked meridians which improved the flow of the energy. If these conditions were met, while you needed to have some amount of natural talent, you would be able to accumulate a lot of energy even before 20 years.

So, one question comes… what was the maximum amount of internal energy a human could hold?

It was said that the person named Dong Bang-sak amassed as much as 3,000 years worth of cultivation, but this was nothing more than an absurd legend.

According to records that could be verified since the start of history, it was said that as many 64 years worth was easily found.

And this was with the Double Body Method, which referred to the state where the original body had been completed by infusing it with internal energy by tapping into all the 81,400 blockages.

So then, what level does it mean for one to reach Profound Demon?

There were three stages. It was said that once you reached the peak of the perfect body state one could use the energy from nature instead of the body.

And that was the same as being one with nature according to the Justice Faction, and it was the state that the AI had reached in the past, and at the same time, it is the state where the Heavenly Killing Star had reached now.

“I tried to hide the state…”

Numerous illusions spread out in all directions. The view of the Heavenly Demon King’s Step which was used had brought out around 13 illusions which seemed no different from the real thing.

Cheon Wol-seong’s way of dealing with it was simple.

Swisssh—

The airflow extending from the Heavenly Demon’s outstretched hand instantly turned into a blood colored form.

Like the thousand arms of Avalokitesvara in the Buddhist painting, countless hand shadows formed and covered Seol-Hwi, creating a bloody tsunami.

Swish! Ackk!

The illusions created through the Heavenly Demon King’s Step disappeared one after another. And after that came a bloody hand shadow which passed, and all that remained was the four illusions a short distance away.

“…Uh?”

Cheon Wol-seong looked a little flustered as he tried to use the sword technique to erase them all at once.

The reason was energy.

The natural air flow around was becoming thinner, and it began to disappear.

What is this…?

And soon the cause was found.

Front and back, left and right.

Seol-Hwi, with his hands spread out, was absorbing the energy in the direction where the Heavenly Killing Star was.

And as a result, the energy was reduced to a thin level, and the remainder of the explosion which the Heavenly Killing Star created also vanished like a lie.

“Ha. Do you think that such a trivial method will work?!”

The method of using the energy of nature, which was most efficient and guaranteed infinite strength, was blocked.

However, the Heavenly Demon also did not adhere to the Profound Demon’s level of strength. He amplified his energy which was accumulated in his body and pushed it out at once.

Kwaaang!

An energy wave that spreads out wide, and yet Seol-Hwi just waved his hand as if waiting for it.

“Direction change!”

“…?!”

Wheik!

The strength of the body which the Heavenly Demon had gathered was scattered in all directions. The direction changed, and the dispersed energy collided with the energy of nature as it was scattered and turned one with the world.

Kwakwang! Tatatak!

Then came the numerous thundering sounds like coffee beans were being roasted, and at that time, Seol-Hwi had released his internal energy.

“Ahhh!”

“Eikkk!”

Kwak—kwakwang!

The Absolute Supreme Demonic Martial Arts.

While the vibration could be felt because of the energy Cheon Wol-seong scattered around, Seol-Hwi was precisely aiming for the head of Cheon Wol-seong.

Kang! Tang!

The lightning, which seemed like it had exploded three to four times at the same time, made the feet and hands of Cheon Wol-seong dizzy, and he barely blocked it. Taking the advantage of this chance—

Clench!

Seol-Hwi ran in, and while looking at the puzzled gaze of the opponent, he said,

“Caught you. Barely.”

“…!”

“Let’s see how long you can hold out.”

Goooo!

A vacuum storm arose from the body of Seol-Hwi.

This was the Absorption Method.

What was the level of endurance of the terrifyingly strong member of the Demonic Sect?

The idea was to see who would be eliminated in the end if they faced off with this.

“…”

Cheon Miryo’s eyes turned faint.

Grrrr. Grrrrr.

The two old people were trying to say something. Their necks were bent oddly, and they could not even raise their heads right. The bizarre sight of a dead person moving around made Cheon Miryo sad.

She spent such a long time.

“Dieeee!”

“…”

The person who was targeting her, who was standing there, was the calm Ack Bi.

He approached calmly from behind, and in an instant, his speed turned to an inhumane level, and the neck of Cheon Miryo was grabbed.

“Kikik!”

The blow seemed to be successful. Because the skinny hands were strangling her.

“Kuaaak!”

And next, Cho Ah-ran saw her and came to attack her, only for both to strangle her.

Kwakwang!

With the help of Cheon Wol-seong, who had brought them back from the dead, they were running wild with greater power than before.

“Kuak!”

The two beings were strangling the woman, and laughing at the sight of the woman’s face turning pale.

Kwak.

It was around that time. With unfocused eyes, Cheon Miryo’s white hand passed by as if gently sweeping them.

A vague form hidden in the fog began to speak.

[I want a peaceful death.]

[Send us up fast.]

The demonic arts of the sect did not simply develop through martial arts. A martial arts warrior who was called an abomination and rejected by the Justice Faction—

Among them there were many cases where the martial arts were converted to deal with spirits and then grew together within the same sect and influenced such martial arts.

Among them was the Color Soul Seizing Technique.

This was originally a martial art close to sorcery which controlled the souls of animals or long dead souls which had weak egos, but it was possible to read their minds or their last thoughts by using the soul.

Drrrr

It was a supernatural ability that was closer to demonic arts infused with sorcery. A single tear fell down the cheek of Cheon Miryo as she read the thoughts of the dead people.

The heirs to the ice arts—

These were people who have been together for a long time without any reason simply because they have similar martial arts basic training.

At first she offered to help.

For Cheon Miryo who had already crossed the border, the young warriors who stepped back from the stage and barely reached the extreme of Supreme Demon were funny and pitiful.

However, they considered the help she provided out of pity as a lifelong favor, and stepped ahead to protect her.

It was this undeserved reward.

Actually, even as Cheon Miryo, who spent a long time as a lone shadow, she felt saved by their warm feelings.

As long as one was human, it was inevitable to interact with people at some point. Just appeasing loneliness and sharing it was enough for Cheon Miryo to survive.

And to their dying pleas, she responded briefly.

And during the time we had… I enjoyed it all.

Swish

In response, she swiped her palm once.

There was a lot to say, but this was the only thing for now. If she did not end it fast, their weak bodies will continue to be used by the Heavenly Demon and feel more pain.

At least, as he was grappling with Seol-Hwi. Cheon Wol-seong’s interference weakened now, and she was thankful that she was the one at their final moments.

Swish—

“…!”

“…!”

As Cheon Miryo’s hand was swung once more, Cho Ah-ran and Ack Bi who were strangling her, went still.

And then, they looked at her with confused looks. Shockingly, there was a line of energy connected at their head, and it appeared for Cheon Miryo too.

Right.

She intentionally brought this upon herself, which led to a situation where one was unable to distinguish between the enemy and ally.

Thank god…

There was another line connected to it. but the Heavenly Demon was far away with Seol-Hwi.

It was not known what their situation was, but she connected with Cheon Miryo.

“May you both rest in peace…”

And then this mysterious energy began to flow from her hand.

Demonic Eye Absorbing Technique.

Rather than martial arts, this was originally closer to a demonic attack which controlled the qi through strong hypnosis.

She hypnotized the two, Cho Ah-ran and Ack Bi, and forcibly triggered the internal energy.

At this moment—

Puak! Puak! Puak!

The string which connected was broken, and the two who were already dead began to fall back like puppets with their strings cut off.

“…Ah.”

Cheon Miryo slowly accepted Cho Ah-ran’s body.

The weight was light.

As if abandoned by everything, she was back into a child-like form.

“…Let us meet again one day.”

Jwang!

Cheon Miryo dug a hole with her palm.

She slowly placed Cho Ah-ran on the ground and Ack Bi next to her.

Now that the spiritual line was taken down, it will no longer be able to get back into the Soulless.

Be it a strong person who was skilled or not.

Kwak! Thung!

When she turned her head again, she could see the fierce fighting.

“The Sect Leader with omnipotent abilities.

“But it isn’t like there is no way to get rid of them.”

Cheon Miryo smiled slightly as she saw Seol-Hwi in the middle of the fight.

“Now, I guess I have to say my goodbye.”

“Fuck. This sucks so much.”

Cheon Wol-seong’s face, which had shaken off the constant attacks of Seol-Hwi, was frowning. He was annoyed by the idea of being cornered with such techniques.

The absorption technique was quite unexpected.

Because the opponent’s abilities have already been closely examined through Simulation.

The problem actually lay elsewhere.

After taking a short time, the Soulless of the Supreme Demon warriors were retrieved. It was completely unexpected that they would die.

I need to kill that wench first.

She was clearly a huge threat which he could not figure out even though he ran a simulation. Who would have thought that a warrior of ice who rose to the peak of the Devildom would use the most classic technique and demonic arts which had not been put into practice, to take down two Soulless.

Considering that even the system could not figure out the existence of hers, she truly felt like the most dangerous entity.

“Phew, phew. Uh?”

Seol-Hwi was catching his breath after the huge fight.

Feeling a presence, he turned around to see Cheon Miryo there.

“Miss… what happened?”

“They went to a comfortable place.”

In response to Seol-Hwi’s question, Cheon Miryo nodded slightly.

“…”

Seol-Hwi also nodded, and Cheon Miryo’s sad look was because of the bond she shared with them.

“It was a lot of hard work. And if we join forces now… we will be able to defeat the man who is the source of all this evil.”

“Yes.”

Cheon Miryo smiled and answered. Then the attitude changed as she spoke seriously,

“Now you cannot be up to doing anything weird.”

It was then.

“Kuak.”

Cheon Wol-seong laughed. But then something felt strange. The laugh was different from ridicule.

“Kuahahaha!”

There was this unexplainable warmth in the laughter that was so excessive that it almost made him feel anger.

“It cannot be helped. I tried not to use it if possible but…”

Cheon Wol-seong, who was laughing, slowly lowered his head and continued to speak with his bloodshot eyes.

“It cannot be helped then. You are daunting opponents for me right now.”

“No…”

The moment Seol-Hwi heard those words, he was shocked. And as if he had been waiting—

-Right. He is calling him.

It seemed the AI knew what Seol-Hwi was thinking and his next words surprised Seol-Hwi even more.

-He has an AI too.
