The Return of The Crazy Demon Chapter 181

Light Sky of the Sun and Moon. I unleashed it for a while. This wasn't a normal martial arts. Even the expression of being 'never compatible' wouldn't be sufficient enough to explain the situation.

Originally, fire Qi can only exist when ice Qi has been entirely exhausted and vice versa.

However, my internal qi has made this a continuous cycle for now. In other words, I'm in a state where I am forcibly making them hold a situation that wouldn't normally be possible.

A method deviating from the logic of the world. It almost feels like I am going in the direction of demons, but this isn't the case when looking at the theory of this martial arts.

Perhaps this should be called Legendary Reversal.

I looked at Yukhap and the old man who were fighting and threw the Light Sky of Sun and Moon onto the troops trying to besiege us.

Be it legendary or not, I don't care.

In the first place, since the demons are known to have evil thoughts and are far from normal people, it is the same whether they are either killed or trampled on.

Just kill them and that is the end.

Pjjkkk!

Light Sky of the Sun and Moon makes a loud sound and shines in the air. Rays of light bursting in all directions in the gaps shown between the conflict of flame and ice trying to annihilate one another.

A beautiful yet dangerous sight to see.

In an instant, the old man pushes Yukhap aside and jumps into the air. At this time, I find an opening in his movement, but I choose to not attack him with the wooden sword.

Because it would create a situation where he would have to run from me.

'And that bastard looked down on me.'

Was he plain blind? Or too confident in his martial arts?

I run at my best pace and grab Yukhap by his shoulder and run in the opposite direction of where I threw the light.

Yukhap, who is being dragged, points to the old man.

“That mad…”

I just snatch him up and begin to run. I turn my head and I can see that the old man is rotating his twin spears fiercely as he soars into the sky.

It seems like he is trying to push out the Light Sky of Sun and Moon to a far place. In my opinion, it feels like a stupid and ignorant response.

Before I know it, I'm standing blankly with Yukhap.

All the sounds around vanished.

When the spears of the man touch my skill, like a whirlwind, my Light Sky of Sun and Moon begins to suck things in.

First, the old man's outstretched arms begin to get sucked into it, and then his body disappears as if it scatters into dust.

When my technique vanishes. All I could see was light.

Yukhap holds out his sword ahead.

“Ah, damn it.”

At the same time, I let out a sigh.

“T-this is a bit.”

Soon after, Yukhap and I fly back screaming due to the backlash of the attack.

“ACKKKKK!”

The screams of Yukhap begin to sound farther away as I hear him throw curses my way.

“LEE ZAHAAAAAAAAA! BASTARDDDDDDDD!”

I try to hold onto my body while listening to his curses. I don't know why, but I suddenly burst into laughter. It's as if my pent-up heart has opened up.

“ACKKKKKK!”

A club of laughter and scream.

In the air, it feels like time is speeding up and slowing down. Or have I lost my mind? Was this a dream where I was floating?

I am confused by many things, but I wasn't so scared of what I did.

A situation where people's limbs could be seen ahead, and weapons were floating around like techniques were being unfolded. At that moment, a corpse appears in front of me, and I slap it.

Pak!

At the same time, I hear a pop in my ears and all sorts of noises pierce my previously deaf ears.

A situation where I hit my back into a cliff-like place and fall down to the ground while rotating the new form. Since everything around is a mess anyway, I intentionally rotate my body.

Even after hitting the ground, I spin around six to seven times which makes me stagger and I don't like it.

“Three out of ten… four!”

It looks like a typhoon hit. The view I was seeing was nice since I could see all around the area. I'm confused for a second, and question whether or not this is a dream since everything was so quiet. Anyways, I came to a realization.

There are still many warriors stronger than me in Kangho, but the moment I used Light Sky of Sun and Moon, it felt like I became the Fourth Disaster.

I used it without much thought….

Each time I used it, it always made me feel so cringe. One day I might die due to the techniques I unleash, so I make up my mind to reduce being involved in anger inducing situations.

Of course, there is a high chance of me just making a promise only to forget it too. I look at the valley which passed the tornado.

“Yukhap…?”

I'm not sure who is alive and dead, but I look for Yukhap.

The troops of the old man couldn't have all died. They were besieging in the north, south, east, and west and since the Light Sky of Sun and Moon was in the southwest side, the people on the other side should be alive. However, the oldie had looked down on my skills, and so he rushed in and tried to destroy it.

The fact that the old man looked down on my skill actually means that he looked down on me. I ran away several times, entrusted Yukhap to deal with him, pissed behind his back, so there were enough reasons for him to look down on me.

But he wouldn't have known it till now that it was all a part of my plan. Eventually, I found Yukhap sprawled on the ground.

And a long sword is in his hand. Despite fainting, the guy didn't let go.

“True swordsman.”

At this level, he deserves to be called one. I don't think he's dead, so I kick him.

“Get up.”

In an instant, his eyes shoot open like a frightened disciple caught taking a nap.

Yukhap rises to his feet and look around to the left and right to look for enemies.

“Is it done?”

“I don't know.”

Only then did I look at the mess and search for survivors. There are none that I could see in the vicinity. Only corpses. And I can also see torn hands and legs scattered around along with clothes and jewelry.

I notice that the condition of the corpses gradually improved the further away from the attack they were.

The first problem is that the technique takes too long to unleash in a one-on-one battle. The second is that as the amount of qi unleashed increases, its effects cannot be controlled.

And so, I have this thought.

In order to use Light Sky of Sun and Moon, I have to learn to protect myself. Conquer my Qi or learn defensive techniques.

Or I think I should create a defensive version utilizing the same combination I used for Sun and Moon.

After pondering the idea, my thoughts about defensive measures halt and I begin to think about cutting the people who were currently struggling to live.

No survivors.

For a moment, in a devastated and messed up place, I sit cross legged on the first rock I can find.

The realm of indestructibleness is hard to get to, as I experienced in the previous life .

I have to conquer a lot more to move to it, so I can't even guess how many years it would take for me to get there. The same with Shadow Moon Martial Arts.

Because I learned them all late, it will take time for me to maximize their full potential. The conclusion, again, is the same.

While I am lost in thought, I use the qi of both the Sun and Moon at the same time. And then I hear Yukhap.

“Sect Leader, please stop now. What more are you doing?”

I listen to his words and reduce the amount of qi in both hands. I gather Taiji in the palm of my hand and remember the feeling.

Yukhap asks,

“What was that?”

“I am thinking about a defensive technique.”

Yukhap tilts his head and asks,

“Is it like the usage of Qi in a technique like Sword Shield?”

“Sword Shield? Show me.”

“Do not say things so simply as if it's like flipping gambling cards. It isn't such an easy martial arts.”

Yukhap creates some distance and raises his sword with the index and middle fingers of his left hand swiping the blade from top to bottom.

A strange situation unfolds. As if his sword and qi meet. In an instant, Yukhap turns his wrist, turning the sword as well, which creates a shield along its path.

Yukhap tells me,

“Basics of Sword Shield.”

“This is basic? Then what is the next step?”

This time he turns his sword without unfolding any specific movement. It seems that his deep sword qi created a shield. It is the same, but the demonstration looked more refined and at a higher level.

It is easy because it is Yukhap who is unleashing it. And I applaud this.

“Excellent.”

At this time, I see a wounded guy in the distance trying to run…

I unfold my sword with a kick. The blade of the sword cuts through the guy who is running.

Puak!

When I fall into a lull, there are times when I wonder about how a person's psyche has to be taken care of. But, if I save these people, they will eventually gather one after another and come back to pursue me.

And becoming adamant on getting revenge would only give strength to the Cult Leader. In that sense, things would be heading in the opposite direction of what I want.

I cannot help but kill and I nod at Yukhap.

“Let's talk while dealing with the ones who were left out.”

I remember the Six Harmonies which Yukhap is pursuing and ask,

“Are these tricks hidden even within the simple sword technique? That means you can unleash a sword shield while performing a simple slash.”

To which he nods.

“It is. Bringing a sword down isn't just bringing a sword down. There are variations in it. Sword skills, sword wind, sword shield, heavy cut, block off, and things which focus on speed and cutting are advanced ones. But it all starts with the simplest slash. Usually, one cannot learn this with just persistence.”

It isn't until I hear his words do I feel that the sword technique of the Murim Alliance Leader was truly amazing. I can't speak to Yukhap, but I know the sword technique of his had heavy strikes. It isn't a simple heavy sword movement.

Every time I think of a question, I ask him.

“Enhanced sword?”

“Even though each sect adds their own meaning to it, in the end, it is all about how you handle it. To simply explain, the enhanced sword is like medicine. You have to think about whether or not to use it because it consumes a lot of internal qi. And it feels like you use one at the expense of ten techniques. If it were you, would you use ten sword techniques or one enhanced sword during a battle?”

“It would be circumstantial. It would be foolish to use an enhanced sword when fighting with many.”

“But if the opponent I meet is better than me, I can put an end to his psyche with just one enhanced sword, a warfare technique. Unlike the helpless regular techniques.”

The man whose martial arts were similar to mine in the past was Ghost Demon, so talking to him wasn't so difficult. This was just an extension of it. Just when I began to wonder why Ghost Demon was explaining sword techniques this kindly, he asks,

“How did you unfold that dangerous technique?”

I look at Yukhap as he asks me in a cautious tone.

“Want me to tell you?”

Yukhap speaks like he doesn't expect much.

“It would be nice if you could tell me something.”

So, I answer in a serious tone.

“First, it is essential to build up positive and negative qi within the body. A must.”

Actually, this most essential step proves to be impossible even for strong ones. Yukhap glares at me without responding.

“What? Why? Why look at me like that?”

Yukhap sighs and walks along.

“Let's go.”

“Why are you sighing? I am informing you.”

“I said let's go.”

“We are already going. What you need to do is learn extreme yin and yang qi. Traditionally we should be learning it in a slow process. Do not hurry. You said that too, when learning the Sword of Six Harmonies too. Slowly….”

Yukhap runs ahead.

Judging from that, those lucky survivors are probably going to get beaten to death by him.

Well, he is the Ghost Demon with the Crazy Demon. And for those kids there, staying alive will be difficult. I can guarantee now that the result would have been the same even if I didn't use the Light Sky of Sun and Moon.

Of course, it's a matter of body.

Referring to the final stage in the Strolling Turtle Technique. Specifically, the Golden Turtle stage.
