Call Of The Spear [EN]: Chapter 339

Tales of Nangsane – Part 2, Episode 48

Of the three Samyeon Gwisun [Three-Faced Ghost Spirit], now split into three, two were displaying bizarre demonic arts against the heads of the Gon and Hoo families.

Their arms and legs swelled to enormous sizes and then shrank back to normal in an instant.

The length of their bodies also increased and decreased rapidly. Even when they were repeatedly cut down, they split apart and then reattached, appearing immortal at first glance.

Consequently, the heads of the Gon and Hoo families were being overwhelmed by the Samyeon Gwisun, while Beom simply observed the battle from a distance.

“The fruits on the tree are increasing.”

The number of trees behind Hojunseong and the fruits on their branches was growing.

As the number of those fruits increased, the situation would only worsen.

Time was not on his side.

It was time to stop watching.

Even the two heads of the Five Great Families couldn’t handle Hojunseong.

To escape, joining forces with the family heads was the right move.

“Bongdo is silent…”

Normally, he would have already jumped in, eager to offer advice, but for some reason, there was no response.

There was no other option.

Beom immediately transformed into a golden ray of light and flew forward. Golden petals swirled around him.

When he spread his hand, the petals gathered to form a sword.

“Is he out of his mind!? That’s suicide!”

“This…”

The heads of the Gon and Hoo families exclaimed in astonishment as they watched Beom charge towards the meditating Samyeon Gwisun.

A mere Sangseon [Ascended Immortal] dared to attack a Hyangseon [Fragrant Immortal].

Moreover, to rush at the demon of Samyeon Gwisun!

It seemed impossible unless he was crazy and seeking death.

“Tsk!”

He clicked his tongue in regret, but it was already too late.

At that moment, Beom threw the sword.

*Swaeeek!*

The meditating Samyeon Gwisun opened his eyes and reached out as he saw the Hwaran [Flower Sword] flying towards him.

*Thuk.*

He casually caught the sword between his fingers.

“You’ll regret grabbing it like that; my woman’s touch is quite fierce.”

Just then.

Suddenly, the sword transformed into tens of thousands of petals and scattered in all directions.

The startled Samyeon Gwisun tried to form a hand seal, but it was too late.

The scattered petals gathered to form a flower bud, trapping him.

-Can you do it?

-I’ll be back after causing some chaos.

Beom’s lips curled up at the absurd message.

Beom immediately formed a hand seal and moved his lips, unleashing a huge shockwave and roar from the flower bud made of Hwaran.

*Kwang, Kwaang!*

But the flower bud remained intact.

Beom placed his palm on the bud and summoned golden flames.

‘Inside, Hwaran is busy unfolding the Hwan Realm [Illusionary Realm] and attacking him.’

So, all he had to do was pour energy into the bud to prevent it from bursting and withstand external attacks.

“This guy was probably empowering the other two! Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been meditating. Now’s our chance!”

As he shouted, Hojunseong’s face darkened, and the family heads began to laugh heartily.

“Hahaha! I thought he was no ordinary guy, and he really is something!”

“…Is that possible?”

The head of the Gon family laughed with joy, while the head of the Hoo family tilted his head in disbelief.

He easily trapped one of the Samyeon Gwisun, who they were struggling against?

“It must be because he was careless. We also suspected that the meditating one was strange. He was the weakest of the three!”

*Kwang!*

As if in response, one of the Samyeon Gwisun launched a sharp attack. The head of the Gon family deflected the attack with a fan, scattering a gust of wind.

*Huuuung!*

The wind swirled into a spiral, creating a whirlwind, and a Peng [Roc] bird that could cover the sky appeared within it.

The head of the Gon family, who had transformed into a Peng bird that seemed to cover half the sky with its wings, opened its beak and let out a piercing cry.

The movements of the Samyeon Gwisun momentarily stopped at the deafening roar.

Soon, dozens of huge whirlwinds began to rage from all directions, and when the Peng bird flapped its wings, a strong blue gale cleared all the clouds and mist in the area.

“Where do you think you’re going!”

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Samyeon Gwisun that the head of the Hoo family was fighting turned to attack Beom.

However, the head of the Hoo family, not allowing him to escape, immediately rushed out and kicked him.

“He’s weakened after all!”

*Peok!*

As the Samyeon Gwisun flew away, the head of the Hoo family threw a blue net from his chest.

The net spread out like a spider web, surrounding all directions.

The Samyeon Gwisun tried to escape, but the net transformed into a school of flying fish and pounced on him.

“Do you think I’ll let you go!”

As his words suggested, once trapped in the school of flying fish, the Samyeon Gwisun, unable to use his strength, found himself caught in the net and struggling.

“Head of the Gon family, are you not done yet!”

When the head of the Hoo family shouted, the head of the Gon family, who had turned into a blue wind and was stirring through the whirlwind, reappeared as a Peng bird. Soon, he transformed back into a middle-aged man and scattered the whirlwind, causing the fragmented Samyeon Gwisun to fall from the sky.

“Shouldn’t we seal them?”

They were like immortal beings who regenerated even when cut down.

When the head of the Hoo family asked cautiously, the head of the Gon family revealed a sinister-looking, bumpy stone in his grasp.

“There was something like this inside their bodies. I don’t know the principle, but it’s probably the core. Even if they are called Samyeon Gwisun, they were ultimately controlling a puppet in the form of a demon.”

If so, with that core, it would end if they destroyed it.

“I couldn’t see or feel it before, but as soon as the Sangseon sealed him, I could feel and see it.”

*Kwajik.*

As he crushed the core, a bizarre ghostly sound was heard, and the demon’s energy faded.

“Hoo, is that so.”

Seeing that, the head of the Hoo family also looked at the Samyeon Gwisun in the small net.

He crushed the Samyeon Gwisun, who had shrunk to the size of a doll, with his hands, took out the core, crushed it into dust, and made it disappear.

“You have done a great job. I would have been in trouble without you.”

“I just did what I had to do.”

“I’m saying this because I know how difficult that was.”

The head of the Gon family praised Beom greatly.

The head of the Hoo family wasn’t very happy, but he was a man who admitted what he had to admit.

“Well done.”

“Understandable, it’s natural for the head of the Hoo family to be upset because his son was knocked out by your punch.”

“Geez, please don’t say things that don’t need to be said.”

“Isn’t it the truth?”

“Ahem. Anyway, shouldn’t we help?”

The head of the Hoo family changed the subject and looked at the flower bud made by Hwaran.

“Yes, thanks to the two of you getting rid of them, their power has been greatly weakened.”

Beom made the bud bloom.

As the flower bud fully bloomed, the Samyeon Gwisun inside was scattered into dust, and the core was crushed and fell out.

Hwaran turned back into small petals and permeated his body.

“An extraordinary Bonseon Beopbae [Original Immortal Dharma Treasure].”

That was the impression of the head of the Hoo family.

The head of the Gon family narrowed his eyes as if something about Beom’s divine power bothered him, but he didn’t ask.

“If this matter ends safely, I will give you a great reward.”

“Our Gon family won’t let it pass either, so look forward to it.”

But those were promises that could only be fulfilled if they overcame the current situation.

The demons of Samyeon Gwisun had been defeated, but the situation was still dire.

Hojunseong was still intact, and his barrier was complete. What they needed to do now was break his barrier and retrieve the Janjanggyeongjeongdo [Secret Mirror Purification Diagram].

Only then could they survive.

“The four-element barrier has extreme mountains of different energies.”

“He’s put a lot of effort into it. It won’t be easy to break.”

Four huge mountains were located inside the barrier and were solid.

It seemed impossible to break it easily.

But they didn’t have time.

Even if it was difficult, they had to do it.

“Fortunately, it’s not a gathering of five-element extreme mountains, so it’s worth trying.”

“It’s fortunate that it’s only four elements, but even so…”

It wouldn’t be easy to break.

“Is there a way?”

Beom asked.

“There are many ways. Even if it’s a barrier, it doesn’t last forever anyway. It will eventually break. Either the power runs out, or we keep hitting it until it breaks.”

“But we don’t have time.”

So the method was limited.

“Then…”

“Our lives are at stake, so we have no choice but to push ourselves a bit.”

“Head of the Gon family, are you going to use the Wonshintang [Original Spirit Manifestation]?”

Wonshintang!

It referred to drawing on the power of the Wonshin [Original Spirit].

In the realm of Hyangseon, it was more important to control the Wonshin and enhance its training.

Using the power of the Wonshin was not only a waste of time for the Hyangseon, but also a waste of their efforts, so they naturally disliked it.

“There is no other way.”

“Ahem… Well, it’s better than dying here.”

The head of the Hoo family clicked his tongue as if it was a waste, then pulled a tooth from his mouth, chanted a Seonsul [Immortal Art], and threw it.

The tooth wriggled and soon turned into a little girl.

The head of the Gon family also spat out a bead from his mouth, which turned into a boy and looked around.

They were all their Wonshins.

“I’ll break through the first two layers, and the head of the Hoo family will release the rest.”

The head of the Gon family grabbed the Wonshin and attached a talisman to its head.

Soon, the Wonshin’s movement decreased, and its inherent energy flowed out.

“If we don’t destroy that extreme mountain, the barrier will be restored immediately, right?”

“There is Cheonsuseon [Thousand Year Old Immortal Herb], isn’t there?”

“Are you out of your mind? The bravery that this Sangseon has shown so far is certainly great, but even so, he is a Sangseon.”

Even if it was possible to destroy the extreme mountain, Hojunseong in the barrier wouldn’t allow it.

He was in the realm of Hyangseon.

Sangseon Beom couldn’t handle it.

“Then is there a way?”

“That’s…”

It was true that there was no suitable method.

Even if the power of Hyangseon was fully exerted with Wonshintang, it was difficult to break the four-element barrier that had been prepared for so long.

Besides, there was no time….

“We will each give our treasures to damage the Wonki [Original Energy] of the extreme mountain. Even a Sangseon can do that much.”

“Will that guy stay still? Cheonsuseon may die in an instant.”

“We will also lose the treasures we gave him.”

“Are you saying that knowing that?”

The head of the Hoo family looked at the Bungma [Skull Horse] tree growing inside the barrier.

The branches were getting thicker, and the number of fruits that looked like skulls had increased.

Time was running out.

The head of the Hoo family looked at Cheonbeom with a serious face.

“Can you do it? The fate of the Suye [Water Immortals] is in your hands.”

If they succeeded, everyone lived.

But if they failed, everyone died.

It was too heavy a burden to entrust such a task to a Sangseon who had just ascended to the Deungseon [Ascended Immortal Rank].

“Maybe that guy won’t be able to move his body easily because of that Bungma tree. So his attack won’t be that fierce. If you do well, the possibility is not that slim.”

“Can you do it?”

The lives of countless Suseons in Janjanggyeongjeongdo.

It depended on him.

And.

“I have a good idea.”

“Tell me without hesitation!”

Beom hesitated for a moment and then answered.

“Shouldn’t we deal with Ho Suseon [Tiger Water Immortal] first, rather than the extreme mountain?”
