Chapter 349

〈 The Demon King of the Ganghuan World (1) 〉

The Tian Shan Mountains of Xinjiang Province, the border of the Ganghuan World.

“I recognize the great King of Demons who has descended on this earth.”

““I recognize the King of Demons!””

In the huge and magnificent Daejeon, countless people knelt down at the same time and shouted at the top of their voices.

To the person sitting in the gorgeous Taesa Temple located on the high stairs in the middle of the main hall.

“Hmm.”

The new Supreme Demon King Hans, who had received everyone’s worship, looked down arrogantly, resting his chin on his arm resting on one armrest.

A sneer appeared on the cold middle-aged man’s face, and naturalization burned in his eyes that were as shiny as glass.

The interior is spacious enough for hundreds of people to have a leisurely party, and is so high that measuring the floor height is meaningless.

The sight of so many people gathered together in such a place, bowing down in unison, was truly spectacular.

Moreover, the feeling of sitting in a high seat where you can see the entire space at a glance, and receiving their emotions of implicit fear all at once...

‘It’s really amazing.’

...I was very satisfied.

In any case, Hans was a collection of negative emotions and a symbol of negativity from birth.

Every time his eyes, illuminated by a strange light, lightly swept over the prone people, their bodies reacted by twitching involuntarily.

Even though the qualifications for entering this Daejeon ‘Shinmajeon’ were strictly restricted, the number of people gathered at the general meeting was close to a hundred.

Even so, the number was greatly reduced due to the huge purge storm that took place not long ago, otherwise it would have easily been in the hundreds.

‘I’ve done enough pruning. It took some time because there were a lot of stubborn people, but it wasn’t that difficult to swallow up an organization of this size. As expected, it was good to set an example.’

Needless to say, the voluntary cooperation of the existing command was essential in order to fully absorb a force as strong as the Heavenly Demon Church.

However, no matter how much Hans proved his abilities by using force, it was natural that it would be difficult to easily accept an unidentified being who suddenly appeared as a leader.

What naturally followed was appeasement, threats, example and execution using any means possible.

A series of purges in which those who can become one’s limbs are selected and those who are deemed impossible to rehabilitate are eliminated.

The result was now.

“Tell me anything, O Most High!”

Really he is.

They eventually subdued the gigantic power called the Church of the Heavenly Demon and devoured it.

Hans, who was leisurely looking around at those lying on the floor, slowly opened his mouth.

“So, what is the location of the Cheongima Line? Did you understand?”

Among those who left the headquarters, the highest-ranking person and the head of external operations in charge of the detachments was Ya Yul-hwan, a military member of the Heavenly Demon Church.

The person who answered the question about his whereabouts was the head of Tongcheongak, an information organization of the Demonic Cult.

“...I apologize. It seems that former military officer Ya Yul-hwan has noticed the changes that have occurred at the headquarters. “Not only has all connection with him been cut off, but contact with the special forces dispatched to other places is also being cut off one by one, making it difficult to determine his location.”

The current senior officer of the Demonic Cult’s Intelligence Department answers while bowing his head as if he has no shame.

At that negative answer, Hans looked down at him.

I was wondering if he was having other thoughts and was making a fuss.

‘...Sigh... Even the head of the Heavenly Demon Cult of the previous generation wasn’t like this...’ The

head of the Bugaksha closed his eyes tightly, breaking out in a cold sweat due to the immense sense of intimidation that came with that gaze.

He really had no intention of going against the will of the new Supreme Being.

Because he saw with his own eyes what happened to the now vacant position of Tongcheonju, a boss who only pretended to give in on the outside but had other thoughts behind it.

‘I’m not afraid of death. But... but that’s not true!’

What was at the end of meaningless resistance was not just death.

What follows is only eternal pain and despair, with no hope of any peace in the afterlife.

That merciless tyrant will never let them go, whether in life or in death.

In front of him, death could never be an escape.

Of course, it wasn’t that he was comfortable with Hans, but rather he seemed nervous and talked a lot, but I couldn’t help but feel a strange feeling about it.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter as long as you don’t cross the line. Above all, it is difficult to find a man of this level of skill in this minor martial arts world. ... Anyway, it’s amazing to see this place again.’

Hans, who was looking around the inside of the lab while half-listening to the chatter beside him, was inwardly impressed.

Although I had already been to this place once while organizing lectures, I felt something different as I calmly looked around the place where the research process was clearly revealed.

“Hoo? this is...?”

“Ah, you really have a good sense of taste! This is a place where we produce and improve the best of the Yokai Gangshi that our school is proud of. The object I am currently working on is a giraffe, a spirit beast that is said to be comparable to a dragon. In fact, unlike the previous monsters belonging to the devil, the process for spirit beasts is very difficult, but we used contaminated Yeouiju...” A

four-legged beast that appears to be well over 3 meters in height.

Although the fur that was supposed to shine with five colors had lost its luster and no trace of life was felt, the appearance of a higher being emanating from that body was extraordinary even at first glance.

‘Is it really like that?’

And the moment he encountered the manufacturing process, Hans was able to clearly glimpse some of the secret meaning of sectarianism that combined the visions of demonic and blood religions.

At this very moment, not only was there an explanation from the Queen of Gaehwa who was talking loudly right next to me, but—.

Various skills such as “Unholy Sage,” “Forbidden Knowledge,” and “Way of Magic” dismantled and analyzed in real time the mystery taking place right under our noses.

The resulting torrent of knowledge came as a great emotion to even him, who had never shown any significant changes in his emotions.

“...It’s really great.”

“I thought you would recognize me! In fact, if we were to consider its perfection alone, it could be said that Heukgangsi, which was under the command of the Most High, is better. “Isn’t the goal of Gangsiksul to raise the body’s inactivity to a level of perfection?”

I nodded slowly, with the voice next to me making a fuss in the background.

In his mind, new concepts combined with the lectures he had learned from time to time were being mixed with existing knowledge and reassembled into his own mystery.

This was an opportunity.

In the meantime, Hans has constantly expanded his horizons by coming into contact with knowledge from numerous worlds.

The thing that contributed the most to that knowledge was probably what was forcibly obtained through the Buncheonhoe.

And at this moment.

What has been accumulating for so long has finally crossed the critical point.

《The individual’s awareness grows beyond its limits. The special skill “Forbidden Knowledge” evolves into “Forbidden Truth.”》

It was Hans who had his roots in Outerica’s black magic.

It was the moment when I gained access to a library of forbidden knowledge encompassing a wider range of categories.

***

‘I guess I’ll have to focus on this for a while.’

Hans, who has evolved his skills, decided to stay here at the Gaehwa Palace for the time being.

“Forbidden knowledge” was a treasure trove of unclean magic, including various black magic.

The “Forbidden Truth” from which it grew gave him access to various knowledge that he had not been able to access before, and it contained a lot of information, including the Kang Hwan world’s Kang magic techniques, the various systems derived from them, and their improvement methods.

‘Now is also the perfect environment to gather this knowledge.’

Of course, since it was right after swallowing up a huge power, we couldn’t just focus on research.

Although they had already used the entire Cheonsan Mountain as their territory and placed barriers and magic tools here and there, there was still a need to inspect the interior periodically to make Hans’ presence clear.

‘Well, I guess I’ll just have to endure that.’

Anyway, at his level, this kind of parallelism was nothing.

Of course, what he was facing now was not that simple.

Hans’ exclusive laboratory located in Gaehwagung Palace.

There were two bodies lying side by side on the bed in the center.

He was the former owner of Cheonma Protestant, where he is now

.

It was a new sample scribe sent from Earth.

‘If this is enough, I can really get started.’

In their lifetime, they were apostles who worshiped the god Beoncheonhoeju, but now that they have fallen into Hans’ hands, that will now become a thing of the past.

From now on, they will be forged into ‘godslayers’ who aim at the gods they serve.
