Disciple of The Three Kings [EN]: Chapter 396

Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!

Sharp swords pierced Lee Ro-woon’s body.

Blades shimmering with a blue aura.

However, even with such an aura, it was difficult to penetrate Lee Ro-woon’s body, which had mastered the Heavenly Demon Divine Art to its extreme.

Thwack!

The fact that Lee Ro-woon’s body was so easily pierced meant something simple.

“It was hard….”

Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

“Let’s…begin.”

Lee Ro-woon said, wiping away the blood.

Lee Ro-woon had opened his body.

“Are you really alright?”

Even at this moment, they were worried.

It was Lee Ro-woon’s order, but it was still an act of stabbing their swords into the person they believed in and followed.

And from now on, they had to do even worse.

“Do it.”

A low voice.

It was a voice that seemed to have become accustomed to the pain of being pierced.

“I said, do it!”

Following the shout.

Whoooosh!

Those who had stabbed their swords began to unleash their energy.

Whoom, whoooom.

Their inner energy moved in a strange flow.

They had all learned different cultivation methods, and the nature of their inner energy was different, but there was one thing in common.

-Blood Demon Art.

Blood Demon Art.

A trace of Blood Demon energy within their inner energy was channeling their energy into Lee Ro-woon.

“Did you think….”

Lee Ro-woon curled up the corner of his mouth.

The eyes that had been languid until that moment began to gradually close.

“That I would just keep taking it?”

He had sealed the chaos within himself.

In return, the chaos threatened him at any time.

It was impossible to fight the guy hiding inside him, within his own inner self.

However.

“Come out, you bastard.”

In a special way, with a special method.

Whoom!

If he aimed for the moment when the guy struggled to break the seal and escape.

Whoom!

If he aimed for the moment when the guy tried to release even a part of himself to the outside.

Whoosh!

That was the opportunity.

The swords pierced into Lee Ro-woon’s body.

The aura emanating from those swords spread a red, blood-like energy, drawing patterns.

It was increasing, one layer, two layers.

They were moving their energy according to the incantation that Lee Ro-woon had taught them in advance.

And the moment that followed.

Bang!

With a huge force erupting from Lee Ro-woon’s body, the Blood King’s Guard, who had stabbed the swords, were thrown back.

“Cough!”

They were already at the peak of their cultivation.

Even though they had not yet entered the realm of transcendence, they were those who had faced its boundary.

Yet, they.

Trickle.

With a single explosion, their blood points were twisted, and they suffered injuries that damaged their dantian [energy center].

The opponent was Lee Ro-woon.

Or rather, the fragment of chaos within him.

-What….

A hazy black spirit appeared before Lee Ro-woon’s eyes.

It distorted greatly and instantly increased in size.

Whoosh!

Darkness so thick that it seemed to swallow everything and bury everything in the abyss.

The expression revealed within was rage.

-What are you doing!

It shouted.

“What do you think I’m doing?”

Lee Ro-woon pulled out one of the swords embedded in his chest.

Then, the swords naturally pushed out of his body.

Clang! Clang clang!

They were instantly flung out and embedded all around Lee Ro-woon.

An even denser Blood Demon energy was emitted.

It was drawing out the energy within Lee Ro-woon’s body, stealing it, and using it to amplify its power even more.

“A battle for dominance.”

Crack.

The wound where the sword had been pulled out began to heal.

Lee Ro-woon turned his head and loosened his body.

“From today onwards, stay quiet for a while.”

Lee Ro-woon’s closed eyes became clear.

“Until I do what I want to do. If you interfere before that….”

Swoosh.

Lee Ro-woon’s figure disappeared.

“It won’t end with just this.”

The fragment of chaos that had finally escaped from Lee Ro-woon’s body.

It.

Thwack!

Was grabbed by Lee Ro-woon’s hand and slammed onto the floor.

* * *

Even if it was just a fragment, it was not an opponent that could be ignored.

Its original form was chaos, after all.

No one knew what would happen with just that one fragment.

At the very least, a city, or perhaps a country.

If things went wrong, the world might disappear.

Chaos was a monster that devoured the world, a hunter that hunted kings.

But that was.

Thud!

Only possible when it was truly a fragment of chaos.

“You must have thought you could run wild as you pleased forever.”

Lee Ro-woon.

He spoke, grabbing the black spirit with his red eyes.

Thwack!

Another hand pierced the spirit’s chest.

-Ugh!

The spirit groaned in pain.

“You really looked down on me.”

The guy was not a true fragment of chaos.

Just.

‘The will of chaos.’

It was merely the will of the guy connected to the one residing within his inner self.

The spirit that the guy had used to escape was nothing more than the patchwork of other souls sleeping within his inner self.

The souls they had devoured since returning to Earth, stitched together.

It was just that will that was added to it.

That was what Lee Ro-woon had done.

Then it was simple.

Thwack!

The guy would be in pain, connected to chaos by the will of chaos.

Thud!

The power the guy possessed was not derived from chaos, but from insignificant humans.

Even so.

‘Is that chaos?’

Will was imbued, and power was imbued with it.

It was ambiguous to call it a fragment, but the guy clearly possessed the nature of chaos.

Therefore.

Whoosh!

Lee Ro-woon was now using his last resort.

-Divine Demon Descent.

He was in the state of Divine Demon Descent.

Crimson red eyes, long black hair.

The energy swirling behind him was like wings.

If a resident of Earth, not of Eun, were to see it, if it were someone who had held a devout belief in the past.

-An angel.

They would have said that.

To be precise.

-A fallen angel.

A fallen angel who had been stained black, having lost his white wings.

Thud!

However, Lee Ro-woon in this state was overwhelming the will of chaos.

“Haa….”

A rough breath.

The spirit that had been the will of chaos was already torn to pieces.

Even so, the way it wriggled seemed to resemble the life force of chaos.

“Hoo….”

Lee Ro-woon, who had pulled out the chaos by moving the Blood King’s Guard.

That sealing formation not only prevented him and chaos from escaping anywhere, but also acted as a barrier to prevent a large impact on the surroundings.

A barrier that would not even crack even if several dragons breathed fire at the same time.

Crack!

Such a barrier was already cracked.

“Is it still not enough?”

Lee Ro-woon barely caught his breath and spoke in front of the torn spirit.

“Do I have to do more for you to stop acting up?”

A clear warning.

At that moment, the corner of the spirit’s mouth curled up.

The pain the guy had received must have been terrible.

Lee Ro-woon could tell.

-There are many ways to self-harm.

In the end, the body the guy was sealed in was himself.

No matter how much pain he inflicted on the guy’s will, there was an impact on himself as well.

“Cough.”

He pretended to be fine, but blood gushed out.

Lee Ro-woon wiped it away.

-I’ve confirmed it well.

“What?”

-As you said, I will stay quiet for a while.

In the end, had the guy succumbed to the momentary pain?

-However, it will be different from what you wished for. This is….

The spirit scattered.

-Because it’s what I want.

At that moment, the guy began to gather again.

“……!”

Lee Ro-woon reached out his hand.

However, the guy.

Bang!

Was one step faster.

The guy who had been helplessly beaten by Lee Ro-woon without even putting up a proper resistance.

The guy had been aiming for this moment from the beginning.

-This is my gift.

Thud!

Another explosion.

The place where the guy collided was the gap in the barrier created by Lee Ro-woon’s power.

A larger crack.

Whoosh!

The guy pulled out a part of his spirit through the gap.

“Divine Lord!”

“My Lord!”

“Blood Demon!”

The Blood King’s Guard, who saw the scene, shouted urgently and tried to grab the escaping black spirit.

“Fall back!”

However, Lee Ro-woon’s order to them was to fall back.

“But….”

They knew that it was dangerous for that to escape, and that it would harm Lee Ro-woon.

That was why they were trying to defy him and jump forward.

“Shut up and fall back!”

Once again, at Lee Ro-woon’s shout, they finally retreated.

Whoosh!

The spirit was sucked back into Lee Ro-woon’s body.

However, a part of it, a torn fragment.

“…….”

Eventually escaped and lodged itself in something.

“You….”

Lee Ro-woon, enraged, reached out his hand haphazardly.

Thud!

The wall that was directly hit by the surging energy literally vanished and crumbled.

In front of Lee Ro-woon’s eyes.

The place where a part of chaos had struggled to escape.

“You son of a bitch….”

Kang Eun-ha’s body was lying there.

* * *

The resurrection ritual that Lee San-hoo had not been confident in.

However, the resurrection ritual was successful as a result.

“Young Master!”

The Tang family members who recognized Tang Hwa-young called out to her.

“I’m the family head now.”

She quietly wiped away her tears and welcomed the Tang family members who had returned.

“Cheol-ah!”

“Grandfather!”

It was also a time for the Tang family members who had barely survived to reunite with their families and friends.

Those who had not betrayed the Tang family, who had not betrayed Eun.

Those who had sacrificed themselves to the end, upholding the Tang family’s banner, had been resurrected from death.

“It’s still too early…. We need to check if it’s done properly.”

Lee San-hoo, who was completely exhausted from the resurrection ritual, was quick to check on the resurrected Tang family members.

It was a confirmation of whether the uncertain resurrection had been successful.

They had been dead for a long time.

No matter how much Lee Ro-woon had taken care of the aftermath, he did not know how their souls might have been damaged in the process.

The number of Tang family members who had been resurrected was about three hundred.

The confirmation of them was completed.

“Hoo….”

Only after two full days had passed.

“We still can’t be careless.”

Lee San-hoo had not even slept during that time.

It was only natural since he was the only one who could do all of this.

“For the time being, you must continue to receive checkups and not leave this place.”

If their souls were damaged, they had to protect the place where their souls had resided.

“We will keep that in mind.”

They were amazed by the power of the Soul Spirit Doctor, a legend of the Tang family, and surprised that his identity was such a young man.

“I’ll explain everything.”

The explanation about him and the story of what had happened until then was the responsibility of Tang Hwa-young, the head of the Tang family.

And only then could Lee San-hoo fulfill Lee Ro-woon’s request.

“I’ll do as you said.”

A voice that seemed to have made a choice.

And.

Whoosh!

A gray-white energy began to settle on the last person who had not yet awakened.

Through this incident, Lee San-hoo became more familiar with the power of the Soul Spirit Doctor, the power to manipulate souls, and was able to perform the resurrection ritual.

Of course, the resurrection ritual consumed a lot of energy, so it could not be performed indefinitely, but it would be helpful in achieving the desired goal.

Step.

Everyone left.

And what remained was Lee Ro-woon alone.

Whoosh.

Something was being sucked in.

And finally, the last corpse slowly opened its eyes.

“Don’t get up.”

Lee Ro-woon said.

“It will take time for your soul to settle.”

“Hyu….”

“It will be hard even to make a sound.”

“Blood….”

Indeed, as Lee Ro-woon said, it took quite some time to recover.

And when he finally recovered.

“Blood Demon Lord.”

Kang Eun-ha said, looking at Lee Ro-woon.

“Am I going to die?”
