Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 21



Episode 21. Sirangjiji (豺狼之域) (2)

Land that is slightly dug out.

There was a fox sleeping on his stomach.

‘Why the fox…?’

At that moment, Xu Liang took a step back.

Before he knew it, his eyes were sharp and sharp. Although it was difficult to survive due to maintaining the dark body, a sword-like anticipation flashed over the pitch-black eyes.

‘Surely it’s precious?’

Of course it will be precious. This is an area that was impossible to access even with a level of magic that was superior to even the highest level of internal mastery. It can’t be an ordinary fox.

But…

‘…Hmm.’

A happy smile appeared on Seoryang’s face, which was full of tension.

‘Cute?’

The fox is still a baby fox.

It curls up and sleeps with its chin resting on its front paws, and it looks quite cute. The unripe nose and muzzle made me want to bite, and for a fox, the big ears were as soft as silk.

Shiny golden fur. The abundant tail is larger than the body.

‘Wow…’

I’m possessed, I’m possessed.

The more I look at it, the more a smile spreads on my face. My eyes were spinning and my hands were itching. If it weren’t for Salsu’s patience, I would have hugged him without realizing it.

‘Is it okay for a precious subject to be this cute?’

Its very existence is an art of self-defense. No matter how vicious this fox cub does, no one will be able to give it a single blow.

because? Because it’s so cute.

Seo-ryang, who had forgotten the situation and was busy admiring the fox, hesitated for a moment.

‘fox? Precious?’

What is the fox monster that appears in Mountains and Seas?

‘…I don’t know.’

Because I’ve never seriously read the Mountain and Sea Classic itself in the first place.

Still, there are windfalls to be heard.

‘Couldn’t it be a nine-tailed fox?’

A nine-tailed fox monster that lives in Cheongsan Mountain. Even if it wasn’t the Mountain Sea View, it was such a famous monster that it immediately came to mind.

Xu Liang glanced at the fox’s tail.

‘It’s not. It’s one thing.’

And it’s too cute to be considered a nine-tailed fox. I heard that the beauty of the nine-tailed fox reaches up to the sky and even fills the air with magical energy.

This fox cub was different. I could barely feel the spiritual energy of a common precious object, let alone the spiritual energy.

Seoliang, who was staring blankly at the fox cub, slapped his own cheek.

‘This is not the time for a plague like this.’

It’s unfortunate, but let’s go on our way.

Seo-ryang immediately turned his head and glanced at the fox cub. I was trying to go, but I kept seeing it and it seemed like I was possessed.

‘Tsk, if you’re still sleeping when you come back, I’ll try to wake you up.’

Seoyang barely let go of his regret and started walking again.

but.

“…uh?”

Xu Liang was embarrassed.

“what? Is it over?”

Except for the road we came in, everything was blocked with bamboo. Bamboos of a thickness I had never seen anywhere else were tightly packed.

‘You reached the deep end in that short period of time? Does this make sense?’

He looked around.

‘It’s narrower than I thought? Or did I take a wrong turn?’

After looking around for a while, he closed his eyes and awakened his senses.

Wooooow.

My fists naturally gained strength.

‘right! This energy is right! The spiritual energy spread here is the most concentrated!’

I finally found it.

‘This is a bit vain.’

I didn’t know how incredibly valuable it was, so I even bought the tea leaves of oyster tea from Jetakcho. Jetakcho was intended to be used as a secretive technique, and the highly fragrant tea leaves of oyster tea were perfect as an ingredient for deceiving nobles who were sensitive to smell.

For some reason, the steam was leaking…

Seoryang opened his eyes and ran his hands around the bamboo trees around him.

‘Sigh!’

Astonishment appeared on Seo-ryang’s face.

‘It’s huge.’

It was truly a terrifying spirit. Even if you collect all the bamboo that has been pulled, purified, and chewed, it would be difficult to compare it to this one bamboo.

There were tons of bamboo trees here.

‘If I purify and take just three of these…’

I started drooling without even realizing it.

‘He is undoubtedly the strongest based on his internal strength alone.’

Of course, it was not yet at a level where it could accept that much energy. No, even if he had the body from his time as the King of Sal, it would be difficult to take two.

Seoryang, who was sweeping the bamboo with eager eyes, sighed.

‘Let’s not be greedy about the three. It would be nice if I could carry at least one properly.’

Even if it is thick, it is too thick. Not only was it heavy, but it was also large, making it impossible to carry more than one.

“What can I do? “Wouldn’t it be luck just to get this one?”

What really made the spirit bamboo here great was the quality rather than the quantity.

It was truly pure and full of sacredness. Although demonic energy is the opposite of pure divine energy, there is probably no other spirit bamboo like this as a raw material for demonic energy.

In addition, the Amyeongjin Magic Gong retains many of the characteristics of Buddhist martial arts. It was clear that depending on what you do with Jinki, you will be able to obtain much more Jingi than what a normal demon can obtain.

Xiliang grinned.

“done. “The purpose has been achieved.”

A little… just a little…

‘Hey, this is unfortunate.’

The amount of internal strength does not determine the level of skill. However, if your body is ready to accept it, there is nothing wrong with it because it has a lot of internal energy. In particular, if you are a super expert with the enlightenment of a teenage expert, the uses will be endless.

In addition, Reiki is of great help in developing upper brain power. It is possible to acquire the divine ability of Sangdangjeon in a short period of time, which would be achieved by highly enlightened monks after practicing for a few days.

‘Too much or too little, too much or too little. Let’s take just one. They say the school doesn’t collect more than necessary.’

Seoliang, who had lost his appetite for no reason, suddenly looked down at the ground.

‘huh?’

There was a small bamboo shoot sticking out of the ground.

He looked around.

‘Is this one bamboo shoot?’

Hmm….

Sigh!

He pulled out the bamboo shoots by the roots and shook off the dirt.

at the same time.

Flash!

The fox cub’s eyes opened.

Eyes dazzling with five colors. The cute fox that Seo-ryang had seen was nowhere to be found. There was a very mysterious yet eerily bizarre look in his eyes.

Slurp.

The fox cub slowly stood up and looked at Seoliang.

Twinkle!

The five-colored eyes, whose emotions could not be read, kept flickering.

Normally, there was no way the sensitive Seo-ryang would not have noticed this, but he was busy cleaning the bamboo shoots.

Seoryang, who had been looking at the bamboo shoots for a while, widened his eyes.

“Wow, what is this?!”

Reiki is incredibly gentle.

The amount is not large. At most, it’s a little more than the bamboo shoots you often find near your residence?

However, the quality of spiritual energy is higher than that of any bamboo in the deep area and is as gentle and gentle as plain water. It is a core of bright and pure spiritual energy.

‘Isn’t this completely the essence itself?’

In terms of elixir, it is at the level of empty blue stone.

I heard that it takes a hundred years or a thousand years for a single drop to be created?

‘It’s mild, so there’s no need to use Jeonghwajingyeol.’

Oh my gosh!

Xi Liang bit into a bamboo shoot.

I thought it would be strong, but as soon as it touches my teeth, it becomes mushy. As I chewed the mushy piece, it liquefied and went down my throat.

“Kya! The scent is amazing… huh?”

Seoliang tilted his head.

‘what? ‘Why isn’t there a response?’

The liquefied bamboo shoots that went over the top.

But I don’t feel any overflowing energy. I just felt a little warm inside, as if I had just taken a good tonic.

If you had a slightly different sense, would you say that something was digested extremely quickly and immediately turned into blood and flesh? Other than that, there wasn’t really anything special about it.

Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Crunchy.

I chewed it several times and passed it several times. But as expected, I didn’t feel much.

“I thought so. Slime? Damn, it’s a bountiful harvest. “I want this guy who used up all his luck in his previous life to have another one like that.”

Slurp.

Seoliang finished eating the bamboo shoot and pulled out his knife.

The dark body fluid had long since been released, and abundant demonic energy was blooming throughout the body.

He was clearly different from usual as he continued to grumble loudly.

There was no caution at all. The person who was more delicate and focused than anyone else when he had to make a serious move was now very careless.

As if possessed by a monster.

Nevertheless, I could see how terrifying his sense of purpose was as he thought about pulling out bamboo shoots and splitting bamboo.

Wooooow.

The sword he held had a reddish energy. The demonic energy of the Dark Spirit Demonic Gong was concentrated to the point where it became visible.

Xu Liang swung his sword carelessly.

Wow!

“…uh?”

what? Why isn’t it cut?

He looked at the knife and the bamboo alternately, then put the remaining bamboo shoot in his mouth and held the knife with both hands. Then he swung again.

“Sigh!”

Wow!

“….”

Seo-ryang’s eyes bulged like beads.

The sword, fully loaded with demonic energy, stuck only on the surface. A sharp cut that would cut a large rock into pieces only managed to split the skin of a bamboo tree.

“Look at this? After all, different is different, right?”

Cheok!

Seo-ryang took out the knife and closed his eyes.

Aimed at a mid-point.

Cheeeeeek!

Suddenly, a translucent red aura appeared on the blade. It was a spirit that had two conflicting feelings at the same time: sticky and dull like blood, yet bright and flashy like a flame.

A pinnacle ability that can only be realized by reaching the level of body and sword unity.

A master of swordsmanship and swordsmanship. Powerful sword energy swirled within the blade.

Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.

‘A single month.’

Flash!

A ray of red light split the air.

Slurp.

The bamboo with its base cut off slowly tilted.

Wow!!

The ground shook.

I thought the weight would be great because of the extraordinary thickness and length, but this was beyond my imagination. Instead of lifting it, I might have to drag it.

Seo-ryang, holding a lead sword, squatted down in front of the fallen bamboo and pounded the surface.

“This could be used as a weapon. How on earth was spiritual energy so concentrated that a mere bamboo turned into steel? It’s really amazing, amazing…”

Ododog. Clap clap clap.

“huh?”

what? The tingling pain that comes with this friendly sound.

Xu Liang looked down at his left hand.

“…what?”

Clap clap clap. Misleading.

The fox cub was chewing on his finger, wagging its tail.

Is it just that? He is licking the blood flowing down his hand as if he is the happiest in the world.

The delicate scent of bamboo shoots that filled my hands had long since been completely erased by the fishy smell of blood.

I flinch.

The fox cub, probably feeling the gaze, raised its head.

The eyes of Seo-ryang and the fox cub collided, sparks flying in the air.

After a while.

“Aaaah!!”

「Kaaeang!」

Seoyang, who fell backwards, quickly straightened up and pulled out his sword.

Although he was somewhat clumsy, the momentum that developed with the sword was amazing. It was an instinctive response to life that was noticeably reduced compared to the frighteningly intense expectations.

“Kiiing…”

The fox cub hesitated and took a step back.

The sight of him walking backwards with his head down was very pitiful. Seo-ryang, who suddenly pulled out his sword, felt embarrassed.

“uh? But you?”

….

“what? “When did you wake up?”

There is no way the fox could answer. He kept lowering his body and retreating, but eventually fell down completely, resting his chin on his front paws and just looking up at Seoryang.

This is an extremely pitiful attitude. Xiliang scratched his head.

“Why are you so calm after sleeping so well in this ugly place?”

Softly, softly.

The large tail continued to wag.

Considering that foxes are also canines, they don’t seem to be scared. If I were to guess roughly…

‘Are you upset?’

Xu Liang chuckled.

“That’s nonsense.”

Slurp.

He put the knife back in and picked up the bamboo. In any case, I did not feel the murderous intent or the primal ferocity characteristic of animals from the fox. Since my extra senses proved it, I was confident that at least they wouldn’t attack me.

Well, I wonder if it would hurt if that little guy attacked me.

Xu Liang waved his left hand.

“Ugh, it hurts. “A thing as small as a rat has the strength of its chin, so go away from a tiger.”

Coogugung.

He picked up the bamboo. I felt like I had to drag it, but as I was lifting it, I found that it was somehow draped over my shoulder.

Seoryang was walking along humming a song while carrying a bamboo stick.

After a while.

“…Why are you following me?”

When Seoryang stopped, the fox cub that had been following him raised its front paws on his thighs and gently waggled its tail. Then he opened his big eyes.

‘….’

It’s really cute. It’s really cute.

Xu Liang waved his hand.

“Whoosh whoosh. “Go back to the embrace of nature.”

How long did it take to walk like that?

“….”

The fox cub placed her front paw on his thigh again. His bead-sized eyes were narrowed and his nose was twitching, as if he wanted to say something.

Seo-ryang scratched his cheek.

“Well, it doesn’t look dangerous. “It will fall off on its own.”

He didn’t think it was a big deal and went back the way he came. The bamboo harvest was much easier than expected, and his steps were very light.

And the fox cub followed behind him.

A glimpse of five-colored brilliance appeared in the black eyes of the fox cub looking at Seoliang’s back.
