Chapter 203

Since Baek Mu-Gun had already informed them about the Divine Demons transcendental martial arts, the three Saints were unfazed. In fact, they had even already discussed countermeasures.

Peng Mu-Hwe countered Gu Pae-Cheons Black Tyrannical Demonic Dragon with the Chaos Absorption. The energy of chaos, which rose from his saber, formed huge concentric circles in front of him. As seemingly endless as the abyss, it pulled in and devoured the dragon charging toward Mu-Hwe. After swallowing the head and half of its body, the Chaos Absorption compressed and disappeared. Meanwhile, the rest of the dragon shattered, scattering black lightning in all directions. Impossible Witnessing Mu-Hwe block the transcendental martial art perplexed Pae-Cheon. Considering the Demon Gods authority was imbued in his transcendental martial art, it should have been impossible for a mere humans martial art to devour it.

Quickly regaining his composure, Pae-Cheon summoned the Black Tyrannical Demonic Dragon again, determined to keep summoning it until it worked. Mu-Hwe also used the Chaos Absorption, refusing to back down. Their fight had turned into a battle where the victor would be the one to run out of internal energy last.

Meanwhile, Huangfu Chong focused on Hyeok Ryeon-Pae, who was protecting Jong Ja-Ryang. The giant that Huangfu Chong had materialized simultaneously fired a hundred and eight fist energies at Ryeon-Paes demon-like qi barrier, driving him to a corner. However, the Blood-Crazed Divine Demon Star remained unscathed, living up to its reputation as an impenetrable defense.

At the same time, Tang Cheon-Oh aimed for Ja-Ryang, who was hiding behind Ryeon-Pae, with his Formless Sky-Enveloping Aura, which contained his Absolute Profound Principles. The Formless Sky-Enveloping Aura upgraded the Sichuan Tang Familys strongest technique, the Sky-Enveloping Flower Rain, into a Formless Sword Qi.

The Formless Sword Qi went past Ryeon-Pae and shot toward Ja-Ryang. As its name suggested, it had no form. An invisible sword. However, just because it could not be seen did not mean that it could not be felt.

Where do you think you are aiming!

Sensing Cheon-Ohs Formless Sword Qi as it passed by, Ryeon-Pae spread his arms, creating wings of black flames and enveloping Ja-Ryang with them. When Cheon-Ohs rain of Formless Sword Qi stabbed into the red wings, they burned even stronger, rendering the attack useless.

As Huangfu Chong continued to attack Ryeon-Pae, Cheon-Oh tried his best to kill Ja-Ryang. However, breaking through Ryeon-Paes Blood-Crazed Divine Demon Star proved impossible.

In the midst of all that, dark-red flames ignited above Ja-Ryangs head and formed an oval-shaped door. Ja-Ryang had called forth his transcendental martial arts, the Hell Spirit Gate, which opened the gates of hell and summoned its evil spirits. The evil spirits possessed strength above the Peak Realm and were invisible to the naked eye.

However, what truly made it fearsome and powerful was its ability to infinitely summon evil spirits for as long as the martial artist could keep it open. Even Supreme-Realm masters had no way of stopping such an army.

We have to destroy the gate! Huangfu Chong, who was attacking Ryeon-Pae, shouted when he saw it forming above Ja-Ryangs head.

To stop the Underworld Evil Spirit Gate, they could either kill Jong Ja-Ryang or destroy it. Considering Ryeon-Pae was heavily guarding Ja-Ryang, destroying the gate seemed to be the more plausible option.

Cheon-Oh targeted the gate with the strongest Formless Sky-Enveloping Aura he could muster. A thousand Formless Sword Qi poured toward the gate of hell in unison, but before they could hit their mark, the gate completely opened, and evil spirits began to pour out from it.

Kyaaaaah!

The evil spirits let out gruesome screams as the Formless Sword Qi pierced and exterminated them. The invisible swords tried to get past the evil spirits and destroy the gate of hell, but the countless evil spirits blocked them. Failing to withstand the evil spirits aggression, which used their bodies as weapons, the Formless Sword Qi eventually shattered.

Now unimpeded, the evil spirits flocked toward Cheon-Oh, who in turn clenched his teeth and summoned more Formless Sword Qi. Hundreds of invisible swords formed around him and began to strike the spirits down, but their inferior numbers could not block off all the spirits flooding from every direction.

After breaking through the wave of Formless Sword Qi, the spirits continued making their way to Cheon-Oh, who activated his protective vajra qi to defend himself. They exploded whenever they crashed onto his qi, exterminating them forever, but they showed not even the slightest fear of ceasing to exist. They just kept trying to break through his protective vajra qi.

Though it was invisible to the naked eye, Cheon-Oh was surrounded and under the innumerable spirits heavy fire. Unable to endure the continuous attacks from the Peak-Realm spirits that threw themselves at him like a cannonball, the Supreme-Realm masters protective vajra qi, which was akin to an impenetrable shield, eventually shattered. Now a castle without walls, they stabbed Cheon-Oh with their sharp-edged hands. Their attacks did not injure Cheon-Oh at all. However, like gluttonous pigs, they sucked his life energy out of him.

Cheon-Oh shriveled up like a mummy and fell forward. After killing him, the evil spirits searched for other prey and found Huangfu Chong. However, they were sucked back into the Underworld Evil Spirit Gate before they could reach him, seemingly pulled by an unknown powerful force. Afterward, the Underworld Evil Spirit Gate quickly shrunk and disappeared.

Kugh! Ja-Ryang groaned and dropped to his knees.

Although the Underworld Evil Spirit Gate was only open for a short period, it still depleted his internal energy, overwhelming him with exhaustion. Although he managed to kill Cheon-Oh, he was rendered unable to fight as a result. The battle was now down to Mu-Hwe and Huangfu Chong against Pae-Cheon and Ryeon-Pae.

Pae-Cheon and Mu-Hwe were still engaged in a battle of attrition. However, although they were evenly matched at first, Mu-Hwes reaction speed gradually slowed down as their fight stretched on. They had equal amounts of internal energy, but his Chaos Absorption consumed much more internal energy, depleting his reserves faster. Eventually, he began to have difficulties activating his ultimate technique and a delay in his reaction speed.

Not missing the opportunity, Pae-Cheon further backed Mu-Hwe into a corner. At this rate, Mu-Hwe was bound to fall first. With Huangfu Chongs help, they could turn the tide of the battle in their favor, but Huangfu Chong was in a tough situation as well.

Despite the pressure he was putting on Ryeon-Pae with the Heavenly King Manifestation, he still hadnt succeeded in breaking through the Blood-Crazed Divine Demon Star. He was almost out of internal energy as well, having been relentless with his attacks.

Noticing that the two Saints martial arts had dulled down, Pae-Cheon and Ryeon-Pae realized that their internal energy was on the verge of depletion. If they could hold out for just a little longer, they would be able to kill the two Saints with ease.

However, they could not afford to relax. They had no idea when the Western Sky Branchs Absolute-Realm masters would finish off the Demonic Monarchs and Higher Demons and come as reinforcements. They had to kill the two Saints before then.

Pae-Cheon and Ryeon-Pae cornered Mu-Hwe and Huangfu Chong, intending to put a swift end to the battle. Ryeon-Pae, who had done nothing but defend so far, changed his strategy and began to go on the offensive. With an impenetrable vajra qi protecting him, he was too much of a menace on the offensive. Meanwhile, Pae-Cheon quickly summoned the Black Tyrannical Demonic Dragon, forcing Mu-Hwe to use the Chaos Absorption.

In the end, Mu-Hwe was the first to collapse, his internal energy falling below what his ultimate technique required. He tried to somehow fight off the Black Tyrannical Demonic Dragon unleashing the Chaos Thunderclap Saber Art, but stopping the Black Tyrannical Demonic Dragon was impossible without the Chaos Absorption. He mustered what was left of his internal energy and unleashed the strongest saber qi he could, but the dragon easily broke it apart.

The Black Tyrannical Demonic Dragon devoured Mu-Hwe. Its fangs shredded his protective vajra qi like a sheet of paper, then pierced into him. The dragon then swallowed him, leaving not even a trace of his body behind as he disappeared into its stomach.

Pae-Cheon immediately joined Ryeon-Pae against Huangfu Chong, the only Saint left. However, before they could even begin their joint offensive, the Western Sky Branchs Absolute-Realm masters reached their battlefield, having defeated the Demonic Monarchs and the Higher Demons. They were left with no other option but to back down.

We should retreat, Pae-Cheon told Ryeon-Pae.

If they were in good shape, it would not have mattered how many Absolute-Realm masters they were up against. However, they had exhausted most of their strength to deal with the three Saints. They could kill Huangfu Chong if they mustered what remained of their strength, but that would leave them vulnerable against the Western Sky Branchs Absolute-Realm masters.

They had already killed two Saints anyway, so they would not lose anything even if they were to retreat now. Failing to end Huangfu Chong as well was a pity, but they would get another chance to kill him in the future anyway. They did not have to risk it now. Agreeing with Pae-Cheon, Ryeon-Pae nodded and checked on Ja-Ryang.

Dont worry. I can move on my own, Ja-Ryang said when he saw Ryeon-Paes gaze, understanding what the man was trying to say. He had already recovered some of his strength.

Go ahead! Ill follow! Ryeon-Pae exclaimed. Alone, he blocked the offensive of Huangfu Chong and the Absolute-Realm masters, who were trying to block their retreat.

With a thunderous roar, Ryeon-Pae was blasted away. It seemed as if the impact pushed him back, but he actually defended with the Blood-Crazed Divine Demon Star and used their attacks force to propel himself backward. The Western Sky Branchs martial arts masters tried to chase after him, but they caught on to his plan too late.

Everyone, stop! Huangfu Chong dissuaded them.

They would not be able to catch up to the Divine Demons anyway, but even if they could, Absolute-Realm masters alone wouldnt be able to do anything to the Divine Demons. The Divine Demons had clearly exhausted quite a lot of their strength since they chose to escape instead of continuing to fight, but they were still Supreme-Realm masters. The Western Sky Branch could probably take them down if Huangfu Chong was with them, but he had used up all his strength. He did not even have the energy to chase after them.

They would only suffer more losses if the Absolute-Realm masters gave chase without Huangfu Chong. They were furious and mortified, but the best they could do in that situation was let them leave. Hence, as Hangfu Chong ordered, the Western Sky Branchs martial arts masters gave up on chasing after the Divine Demons.
