Chapter: 271

“This...?!”

Yeowun’s eyes grew large. His force qi was not blue anymore. Just like the man in his illusion, his force qi was dark. And the force qi unleashed ominous aura from it. Yeowun then swung the black sword-wielding dark force qi at the wall.

The wall was cut down as if it was like a paper. It was amazing.

“How is this even possible...? Just the force qi is...”

Yeowun was shocked by his own energy that was so powerful beyond his imagination.

‘If then!’

Yeowun then used the first formation of the Sword Force of the Sky Demon. His black sword unleasehd the twenty-four sword movements, slicing through the blue pearl stone. As the stone pieces crumbled down, the black sword shined in its perfect state.

At the entrance of the Demon Seal Cave, a ragged building covered up the underground staircase just like the entrance. Three instructors who were waiting at the exit were curious. If Yeowun was at the superior level, it should have taken him less than an hour to come out from this exit, but they didn’t see any signs of Yeowun coming out even after two hours.

“I hope nothing happened in there.”

Instructor Yun Jawun spoke and Hou Jinchang narrowed his eyes. The traps within the cave were dangerous enough for grandmaster level warriors, but it was nothing too dangerous for superior level warriors as one could just defend oneself with an energy shield.

‘Is he...?’

Hou Jinchang then turned to the pedestal with the name on it. The cave was known to contain a sealed demon. It turned into a place of the fifth test now, but a long time ago, this place was a place only those who had the ‘rights’ could enter.

‘I heard the rule changed after the Sword Demon created the Demonic Academy here.’

Most instructors did not know who created the academy. And it was then when two-hour time limit was almost up.

“OH?!”

They didn’t feel anything, but the ragged door to the building opened and someone showed up. It was Chun Yeowun.

“Ugh!”

Instructors immediately pinched their nose at the foul smell coming from within. Yeowun’s body and clothes which were wet with dark and sticky liquid let out the foul stench. Even Hou Jinchang, who rarely showed emotion, made it seem like it was too much to bear, and hid his nose under his arm.

“...C-congrulations, Master Chun Yeowun, on passing the fifth test.”

“Thank you.”

He barely passed the test. He almost went over the time limit, but no instructors here were worried that Yeowun would not pass anyway.

‘Huh?’

Hou Jinchang’s eyes turned to something that Yeowun was holding onto.

‘What is that?’

Yeowun’s hand had a white club-like thing that was as big as human arm. It looked like the horn of a young deer.

Originally, cadets who passed the fifth test were required to report to the Chief right away, but Yeowun was soaked in such a foul stench that he was sent to the dorm to clean up first. When he got to the dorm, Yeowun took a shower. It took him an hour of washing to remove the stench. He then twisted the clothes to extract all the black liquid and collected it all into a bowl. This wasn’t the end. He also had to collect the black liquid collected in the leather blade scabbard he had that had lost its blade after his Butterfly Dance blade had shattered.

‘This should be enough.’

He collected this liquid because of what happened inside the cave. After Yeowun was satisfied with his increased power, he tried to continue on. However, his body was heating up inexplicably so he had to sit down and meditate. After ten minutes, the toxic elements within his body were pushed out. And when it did, his internal energy began to flow much better.

‘How did this...’

[The ooze consumed into the body flowed through the blood points and pushed the remaining small amount of toxic elements out of the body.]
