Seokgwon Territory. A great city backed by massive stone mountains, surrounded by three fortress walls. It was also the place where the Ming Cult's underground cavity was located directly below. It was at the northern edge of the demon realm. The night air was different. Even the outskirts beyond the fortress walls were so. A bit colder, a bit darker. And the wind was tenacious. The nearby tree branches were constantly swaying their skeletal arms. The sight of gaunt shadows swaying and…-

Behind Jeong Yeon-shin. There was suddenly a rattling sound. The presence of rusted armor. The iron scales of imperial armor. Yu Xiong-gong had descended to the ground while carrying Divine Beggar Zhu Guang on his back. He had no need to strain himself floating with void-treading steps. Jeong Yeon-shin's stationary footwork would not continue for long. Divine Beggar Zhu Guang spoke calmly. "Your joints just creaked - couldn't your bones achieve rejuvenation?" "Isn't this how I ended up…

Xuzhou was already large to begin with. There was more vigor than usual. It was because fresh rumors had spread. A young master from Desolate Sect had provoked the Blood Flame Sect. It was a story that anyone couldn't help but be interested in. Not a white-ranked warrior but a blue-ranked master, they said. It was something that added force to how quickly rumors spread. "When we sprinkled water, they were indeed Blood Flame Sect members. Their dye was truly flawless." "They say he killed a…

Chapter 6 – Recognition (2)
The late cold froze the dawn air on the mountain behind Jeong Estate. Jeong Yeon-shin thought: If the wind blowing through the valley had a color, it would be grayish-white. The people of Jeong Estate, who once ruled Hyeon, laid their bodies under seeds that would sprout next year. All night long, they carried and buried corpses. Jeong Yeon-shin, the steward, a few surviving workers, and the Zhongnan faction experts led by Jeong Jung-san were covered in dirt. His niece, curled up to one…-

Swords, axes, crescent blades. These were the edged weapons that the common people of the demon realm held closer than pickaxes. Unlike the south, they did not strive to block the 'Gates,' so they even sharpened the roofs of their houses to ward off the strange birds that occasionally flew down from the sky—such was their way of life. All pavilions were like swords. And the place with the most swords in the demon realm was the capital city of Black Capital. A great city that revealed…

Low laughter descended upon the repository of knowledge that held countless ages. It was not from Jeong Yeon-shin. Laughter that none of the party had made mixed with the roar and disappeared. Along with the rocks pouring down like hail from the ceiling's collapse. Kugugugugugugung! Amid the aftermath of one of the Five Great Palm Methods under heaven, the Ming Cult's Dark Heaven Hand Wall Formation, racing in all directions after striking the cave from outside. Jeong Yeon-shin was suddenly…

A point about two thousand li north from Juyong Pass of the Great Wall, crossing fifteen great mountains through precipitous mountain ranges and wilderness. It was right next to Clear Light Plain where Jeong Yeon-shin and the Six Star Lords had clashed. Even for masters acknowledged for their lightness skills by major sects, it would be a distance requiring horses if departing from the Great Wall. The Divine Sword Group's Yeoktru Castle was located there. A yellowish-brown earthen fortress…

Ming Cult Northern Branch. About four thousand li north from Juyong Pass of the Ming Dynasty's Great Wall. It was established in Seokgwon Territory, a major city at the northern edge of the demon realm, and was now effectively the Ming Cult's main headquarters. However, most of the people of Seokgwon Territory did not know that beneath their feet lay a vast underground cavern. It was even harder to imagine that the Ming Cult existed there. The fact that the Northern King 'Gluttony' who originally…

Heavenly Demon. An existence difficult to feel at ease about. While names like Boddhidharma and Sanfeng refer to their original bearers and have hardened like diamonds without being inherited, only the title of Heavenly Demon has been passed down through generations as the most fearsome name in the jianghu martial world. They use the most bizarre martial arts under heaven, and their schemes are difficult to fathom. Even when they disappear right before your eyes, you must wait and see whether it's…

It was right after the Song of Bone had fallen upon the space of the initiation ceremony, conducted on an unprecedented scale even for the Ming Cult. A fishy smell came rushing in. Was it because this was a damp place? The scent of blood that explosively surged from various parts of the underground cavern, then settled down thickly. Saaaa— The lanterns that had dimly illuminated the damp walls flickered like small candles. They seemed about to go out at any moment. The strong ones who had…
