Chapter 158: Celestial World’s Chief Gods (1)

Due to the Guardian Power Jewel that Kang-jun placed on the Guard Tower, the demonic gods couldn’t enter Pavalia Station without his permission.

Therefore, they were waiting for Kang-jun at the border of Pavalia Station and attacked as soon as he entered Hwanmong.

There were a total of five demonic gods.

Their abilities were similar to Tonnach and Hatunia who were previously sealed by Kang-jun. However, one of them had enough power to rival the celestial goddess, Shaoniel.

He was Mautun, one of the most powerful demonic gods under Karosio.

Mautun gazed at Kang-jun and said.

“You will immediately release Tonnach and Hatunia from their seals. If you do, we will no longer interfere with your work. Additionally, if you want, we can support you in the war with the Celestial World.”

Unexpectedly, the demonic gods wanted to negotiate with Kang-jun.

If he released the prisoner then they would no longer bother Kang-jun.

They even offered to help him in the war against the Celestial World.

Kang-jun laughed coldly.

"Why should I believe you? Right now I am fighting against the Celestial World but you might stab me in the back.”

Mautun laughed in return.

"I won’t tell you to trust us. But it would be better to believe us for now. Can you afford to be enemies with us while you are at war with the Celestial World?”

"I think that you guys should be the ones worrying.”

Kang-jun said while pulling out the Heaven's Blood Sword.

Creating the Survival Power Jewel needed the blood of demonic gods as well as celestial gods.

From the beginning, Kang-jun had needed more blood from the demonic gods.

There were only one of two choices for the demonic gods.

Be killed or give in.

Although he couldn’t kill the demonic gods, he could make them succumb through his seals.

Thus, there was no other way from the beginning.

Catch and seal everyone.

As Kang-jun showed his desire to fight, Mautun and the other demonic gods stared at him.

"You seem to think that we offered to negotiate because we are afraid of you. We will let you know that it isn’t the case.”

"Kukuku! Cheeky human! Don’t think that you can defeat me with just the power of Hwanmong.”

The demonic gods surrounded him.

Kang-jun laughed.

"Why are you pretending to be so great when you are surrounding me? You don’t have the confidence to face me alone.”

But the demonic gods just laughed at his words. Mautun shouted with a smile.

"We are different from the celestial gods. Is it necessary to take the hard way out when you can go the easy way?”

With those words, Mautun swung a huge sword at Kang-jun.

Pa pa pa pa!

A huge light split apart the dimensional space.

However, the light then split into a large number of rays and flew towards Kang-jun.

As expected, it was similar to when Shaoniel attacked Kang-jun!

At that moment, Kang-jun swung the Heaven's Blood Sword in front of him.

Kwaang!

All the lights that Mautun had created faded away. Mautun was forced back.

Kang-jun soon caught up and brandished his sword.

Kwaang! Kakang! Kwaang!

Mautun could only defend without dreaming of a counterattack.

"Kuook! Too strong.”

In the end, Mautun stepped back.

At that moment, the other four demonic gods used their strongest secret techniques.

Pa pa pa pa!

Kururung!

Kang-jun was forced to turn away from Mautun in order to defend against these attacks.

Although they weren’t as strong as Mautun, they couldn’t be ignored.

Mautun saw the gap and rushed back in.

Flash! Hwarururu!

Huge flames emerged from his greatsword.

The flames constantly grew and rushed towards Kang-jun.

Mautun was desperate this time. He used his strongest secret technique.

Hwaruru! Hwaruru!

In the blink of an eye, flames surrounded Kang-jun.

Everywhere that he could see contained flames. Kang-jun laughed coldly.

"Do you think you can kill me with something like this?”

He then swung the Heaven's Blood Sword a few times and the flames were quenched.

At the same time, a ray of light from the Heaven's Blood Sword pierced Mautun’s left arm.

Paak!

“Kuuuuck! T-this isn’t possible!”

Mautun’s left arm started bleeding.

He panicked and moved away again.

In the meantime, the other demonic gods relentlessly pursued Kang-jun.

Kang-jun frowned and yelled.

"Get lost!”

Flash! Flash! Flash!

Light furiously emerged from his sword!

The throats of the four demonic gods were cut before they could even defend.

“Keeeok!”

"T-this!"

They screamed as their heads were separated from their bodies and disappeared somewhere. It was the same for their bodies.

All of them had entered the sealed Hwanmong world.

At the same time, a ray of light from Kang-jun’s sword flew towards Mautun.

Paaaat!

Mautun looked frightened as he summoned a huge shield to attempt to block it.

Kwaaaaang!

There was a roar as the shield turned to powder. The bloody Mautun smirked and laughed.

“Kukuk! You're great. But no matter how strong you are, you won’t be able to win against all the demonic gods.”

At the end of his speech, he faded away.

He managed to escape.

'Shit! I missed him.’

He hadn’t expected to catch all five demonic gods from the beginning. A calm smile formed on Kang-jun’s face.

‘Still, I gained four bottles of demonic god blood.’

It wouldn’t be hard to seal Mautun while attacking him. However, the rest of the four demonic gods would escape.

As a prisoner, Mautun might be better, but in terms of quantity, he preferred the other four demonic gods.

For the Survival Power Jewel, three bottles of blood from both the celestial gods and the demonic gods were required.

Currently, Kang-jun had two bottles of blood from the celestial gods in his inventory.

‘With all the blood of the demonic gods I gathered today, I only need one more bottle of blood from a celestial god.'

Kang-jun entered the sealed world and immediately grabbed the blood from the demonic gods.

[The blood of a demonic god has been acquired.]

[The blood of a demonic god has been acquired.]

Four bottles in total. Three bottles would be used for the power jewel while one bottle would be used for other purposes.

Even if it wasn’t used for a power jewel, the blood of a demonic god was a very rare material.

On the other hand, the four demonic gods were furious.

Not only did they suddenly have their throats cut, they were also sealed by Kang-jun and had their chests sliced and their blood put into bottles.

They were being treated like beasts.

Yet they couldn’t resist.

"What are you doing? Do you think you will be safe?”

"You are already enemies with the Celestial World and now you have turned us into enemies as well. You are crazy.”

“Kukuku, sooner or later, it will be your end.”

They could only threaten him.

Kang-jun stared at them and said.

“I’ll see you in 100 years.”

It was too annoying to explain. It was smarter to mentally educate them using the Punishment of Time.

Before the demonic gods could say anything, they were thrown into an unknown space.

And each of them started their 100 year punishment.

Shaoniel and Luminael just watched Kang-jun.

At first, they had trembled at Kang-jun’s behaviour but now they just let it pass. Kang-jun was originally such a person.

Then Kang-jun turned towards them and both of them jumped with surprise.

Blood was still pouring out from the wounds Kang-jun caused on their chests.

Kang-jun laughed.

“Don’t worry. I won’t bother you guys anymore. And Shaoniel. I was able to safely survive Karosio’s temptation thanks to you.”

Shaoniel stared at Kang-jun with wide, shocked eyes.

"You must have met up with Karosio and won against her temptation. I’m glad. I was worried that you would have fallen for her temptation."

"In the future, Karosio won’t appear before me. Shaoniel, your tears were a great help. I really appreciate it.”

Shaoniel smiled.

“If you want to thank me then release me.”

Her eyes were filled with expectations but Kang-jun shook his head.

"Don’t even dream about it until the negotiations with the Celestial World are complete. Instead, you’ll be able to go between the resting areas to your heart’s content.”

"Resting areas?”

"I created a place to rest at my base. Your powers will be sealed but you can freely go there from within this place.”

At the end of his words, a small portal formed in the garden of Shaoniel’s mansion.

"The portal is only available to you and you can use it at any time. It doesn’t matter if you stay at the rest area, but come here if I summon you.”

The resting place at base headquarters had risen to Stage 10 and was now a paradise of fantastic facilities on a huge island.

Shaoniel could see it through visions.

Of course, some amazing paradises existed in the Celestial World.

But, Shaoniel couldn’t go there right now.

Being able to go to the rest area was very nice for her after the forest and lake.

"I didn’t know that I would receive such preferential treatment in this sealed world.”

"You are entitled to these benefits.”

Kang-jun just smiled.

If it wasn’t for the conflict with the Celestial World then he would have freed Shaoniel right now. However, Shaoniel had a certain position in the Celestial World so her being his prisoner wasn’t something that could be ignored.

This was the best consideration that he could give her.

[Demonic God Tonnach - 100 years punishment complete.]

[Demonic God Hatunia - 100 years punishment complete.]

[Celestial God Tarub - 100 years punishment complete.]

Then Kang-jun called the ones that he put into the room of punishment twice.

They spend a total of 200 years in solitary confinement.

Tonnach didn’t have a rebellious attitude like last time.

"Do you have a proper mindset now?”

Tonnach sighed at Kang-jun’s question.

“What do you want me to do?”

"Your tone shows that you still don’t have the proper mindset. Do you want to receive the Punishment of Time again? "

Tonnach flinched and smiled awkwardly.

“Ah, no. My mindset is proper so please...”

The same was true for Hatunia.

"I will be quiet so don’t send me there anymore.”

Being in solitary confinement for 200 years with a human spirit had definitely changed their attitudes.

"Then I will watch you for a while.”

Kang-jun built two huts on the side of the lake that was opposite to Luminael and Shaoniel.
