The intense heat energy that burst forth from Yushinyun coiled around the sword like a snake. It was the power of extreme heat possessed by the demon Yu Yu.
[Seizure]
Rank: S+
Proficiency: 0.0%
What belongs to the summon is the master's.
You can use one of the skills possessed by your summon.
- A summon whose skill has been seized cannot be summoned until the skill ends.
The Seizure skill, which allows the user to take and use a summon's skill, is one of the high-level skills possessed by a summoner.
Although there is a significant restriction that the summon cannot be summoned during the skill's use, it didn't matter at the moment.
After all, with Tang Harlin and Zhuge Jun watching, he had no intention of using his summon.
‘It’s too early to reveal that I am a summoner.’
If he were the Tang Tai of his previous life, this would have been the worst situation. Not being able to use his summon would be a death sentence for a summoner who relied on it for most of his power.
However, as Yushinyun looked at the more than ten members of the Dragon Guard rushing towards him,
‘How ridiculous.’
It was merely laughable.
Yushinyun had reached a realm he had never imagined before.
In an instant, another energy began to seep into the scorching heat energy emanating from the sword.
And then,
Whoosh! Bang!
The sword, which had risen like a mist, merged with the scorching heat energy and began to fiercely boil.
It was the moment when the Flame Sand, which even experts of the Heat Yang Technique found hard to form, was completed in Yushinyun's hands.
‘...Can he use the Heat Yang Technique?’
The appearance of the unexpected Flame Sand brought a look of bewilderment to Mei Yuehua's face for the first time.
The report on the intruder who had infiltrated San Yu did not mention the Heat Yang Technique at all.
‘The intruder was clearly someone who used poison techniques, right?’
There were only traces of extreme poison.
That's why she had completely underestimated the intruder.
Her grace, bestowed by the God of Plants, granted her complete immunity to poison.
But suddenly, the Heat Yang Technique!
She was now facing an opponent with the worst possible elemental advantage.
‘Tch! This isn't going to be easy.’
But it seemed that the unease wasn't just hers. The eyes of the Dragon Guard members rushing towards Yushinyun were also shaking as if an earthquake had struck.
"Anyone who shows even a hint of fear will die by my hand first!"
But the sharp voice of Mei Yuehua echoing through the cave made them barely regain their composure.
"Die!"
"Roar!"
They seemed to be trying to shake off their unease as they loudly shouted and extended their weapons.
At that moment,
Swish! Swish!
The fiercely burning sword of Yushinyun created countless illusions in the air.
They were not illusions or mirages.
Each one was real.
It was a phenomenon created by a sword that had reached the pinnacle of speed.
Thus, Yushinyun engaged all his enemies alone.
Bang! Bang!
Swords clashed, but the impact was like a bomb exploding. The energy contained in Yushinyun's sword was beyond imagination.
The Dragon Guard members couldn't withstand even a single blow and were thrown into the air by the shockwave, landing on the ground with pale faces due to the chaotic internal injuries.
As they tried to stand up with trembling legs,
Whoosh! Whoosh!
"Ah!"
"It's, it's hot!"
They were instantly engulfed in flames and began to emit agonized groans.
Watching his subordinates burn black, Mei Yuehua continued to doubt whether what she was seeing was real.
The moment the swords clashed, the seed of Flame Sand transferred to the swords of her subordinates and quickly enveloped their entire bodies in a massive heat wave.
‘...This is different from the Flame Sand I know. His power is as if the fire is alive.’
She couldn't easily accept this reality.
Her personal guard was a group of strong individuals she had specially trained. Every one of them had reached the peak of the highest level.
Even if the intruder were at the supreme level, he shouldn't be able to handle them like children.
‘...What is his true identity?’
She looked at Yushinyun with eyes full of doubt.
And then,
She shuddered.
She involuntarily shrank back, startled by the utterly empty gaze Yushinyun was giving her.
‘...Impossible!’
For someone blessed by the God of Plants to feel fear.
It was absolutely impossible.
Her eyes became even more venomous.
‘Fine, I'll acknowledge your small talent. I'll pour all my power into killing you!’
Swish! Swish!
Suddenly, the dozens of vine tentacles lying on the ground rose up.
Swoosh!
The ends of the vine tentacles then transformed into sharp blades.
The Dragon Guard members lying on the ground screamed.
"Ugh!"
"No, no!"
"Chief! Save us...!"
They had foreseen what was about to happen to them.
But Mei Yuehua declared their fate with a look as if she were looking down on insects.
"Useless scum! Quietly become my nourishment."
Swish! Splat!
The vine tentacles, like lightning, pierced their chests.
As they struggled in the air, trying to survive,
Whoosh! Whoosh!
They quickly transformed into dried-up corpses, their bodies drained of all moisture.
The vine tentacles had absorbed all their life force and inner energy.
"Ha ha ha! Infinite power surges through me!"
The absorbed energy was sent to Mei Yuehua. An overwhelming power, incomparable to before, was emanating from her body.
The moment Yushinyun saw this, he realized the true identity of his opponent.
The blade-like vines.
Multiple energy drains through vine tentacles.
His opponent was a plant-type monster, the 'Dryad Queen'.
At that moment, her gaze turned towards the cave's exit.
"Please hold on a little longer. You can survive now."
"Please, please hold on a little longer!"
Tang Harlin and Zhuge Jun were loading the survivors onto carts and trying to escape the cave.
While she was distracted by Yushinyun, they had taken the sacrifices.
"Where do you think you're going!"
Whoosh! Swish!
Enraged, she extended her hand, and dozens of vine tentacles shot towards them.
Whoosh!
Yushinyun also kicked off the ground and rushed forward.
But the movement of the vine tentacles, which had absorbed the energy of her subordinates, was even faster.
‘Damn!’
"Whoosh!"
As dozens of vine tentacles rained down like a storm towards the survivors,
The Ten Thunder Swords of the Divine Cloud Style.
Transformation.
Flame Cloud Straight Strike.
Yushinyun, who had leaped into the air, brought his sword, which he had raised high above his shoulder, down.
And then,
Bang! Whoosh!
Crack!
The explosive sword wave, like a bolt of lightning, engulfed all the tentacles. The vine tentacles, which had not even touched the survivors, were cut in half and began to burn as they fell to the ground.
"Roar!"
As the tentacles were all cut off, Mei Yuehua groaned in pain.
Taking advantage of the pause in her attack, Yushinyun shouted to Tang Harlin and Zhuge Jun.
"Take the survivors and escape first!"
"How can we...!"
"Hurry!"
At Yushinyun's command to leave him behind, the pupils of the two people trembled violently.
But when Yushinyun turned his back and readied himself for another attack,
Whoosh! Whoosh!
They gritted their teeth so hard they bled and led the survivors out of the cave.
"Ugh! This, this dog!"
Mei Yuehua, who had just regained her composure, glared at Yushinyun with bloodshot, menacing eyes.
Swish! Swoosh!
At the same time, the severed vine tentacles began to regrow like a lizard's tail. This time, a slippery liquid began to seep from the tentacles.
When the liquid from the tentacles touched the ground, it sizzled and burned. It was an acidic liquid that would dissolve anything it touched.
“...Finally, we can fight properly.”
But Yushinyun paid no attention to it.
He was merely satisfied that Tang Harlin and Zhuge Jun were quickly getting farther away.
‘Hmph! What a ridiculous show of bravado!’
Mei Yuehua, of course, didn't believe a word of Yushinyun's.
Bang!
Then, with a sound like air being sucked out, countless seeds spewed from the flowers that had bloomed on her body.
The seeds burrowed into the bodies of the many dead victims scattered throughout the cave.
Boom!
Yushinyun quickly stepped back as an explosion suddenly erupted at his feet. Realizing the situation, anger surged in his eyes.
The bodies of the victims, into which Mei Yuehua's seeds had burrowed, had caused a massive explosion.
"Rat! Let's see how long you can keep dodging!"
Bang! Bang!
The bodies near Yushinyun began to explode in a chain reaction.
Swish! Swish!
At the same time, the vine tentacles also rained down, looking for an opening.
But Yushinyun did not dodge. He stood his ground and faced them head-on.
If he moved, more of the victims' bodies would explode.
“...It's been a while. I haven't been this angry.”
The moment Yushinyun finished speaking,
Rumble! Bang!
The entire cave began to shake.
He had fully unleashed all his power.
Natural energy.
Inner energy.
Negative mana.
The numerous powers contained within his body, recognizing their master's anger, burst out of their confines and engulfed the entire cave.
“Huh! Huh!”
Under the immense pressure, Mei Yuehua could only gasp for air, unable to form coherent words.
Step, step.
Yushinyun, with his burning sword pointed at the ground, slowly walked towards Mei Yuehua.
But the vine tentacles on the ground could not even move.
‘N, no way! Why, why from him!’
It was a familiar energy.
An energy he had felt from only one person during his entire life.
But before her doubts could be resolved,
Crack!
Yushinyun's sword, which had suddenly reached her face, cut off her arm.
She wanted to scream in pain, but Yushinyun quickly covered her mouth with his hand, which moved like lightning.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
“...!”
The flames from his hand fused her mouth shut.
“Grr! It's not over yet.”
As he said, it was just the beginning.
Roar!
With a beast-like gaze, Yushinyun cast another skill.
“...!”
Mei Yuehua writhed in response to the changes in her body.
A new arm was growing from the cut.
Yushinyun had used the recovery skill, Ho Baixi Yuan, on Mei Yuehua.
Crack!
Yushinyun cut off Mei Yuehua's arm again.
“Let's start over.”
Mei Yuehua's eyes, realizing her fate, trembled.
