Absolute Regression Chapter 796

If this is a prophecy you need to hear, Episode 796

The Sub-Hon-Ma-Jon and the Thousand-Haired One entered a place where the darkness had not yet reached.
It was the kitchen, but it was empty, perhaps because it wasn’t mealtime.

“Let’s take a break here.”
“Yes.”

The Sub-Hon Demon Lord treated Cheonhwaruju with respect. Cheonhwaruju found the Sub-Hon Demon Lord’s kindness burdensome. No matter how young he was, he was still a demon lord of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

“If you are hungry, please have some of this.”

The devil came to the kitchen and found two duck legs.

“I’m fine.”

When Cheonhwaruju declined, the Demon Lord leaned against the table and plucked at the duck leg.
She ate it with relish. Cheonhwaruju felt a sense of ease and strength in his natural demeanor.

“It’s quiet.”

I thought I could hear the sound of a fight somewhere in the distance, but it was eerily quiet.

“The young cult leader will be going in the opposite direction from us.”

Although he couldn’t fight alongside Geomwu-geuk, the Demon Lord considered this important.
With the confidence that he would protect Cheonhwaruju, Geomwu-geuk would fight with peace of mind.

Moreover, Cheonhwaruju was a woman with a deep connection to the evil Soma. Protecting her was crucial.

The Sub-Honma-Jon, who was eating a duck, put down his leg and roughly wiped his hands on the towel next to him.

“Please step back.”

As Cheonhwaruju stepped back, the door opened and someone entered.
The one who entered was an old man, Heukno, one of the two elders who had accompanied the Dark Princess. He entered naturally, as if he had known the other person was there.

The Sub-Hon Demon Lord blocked Cheonhwaruju’s path, wiping his trembling lips with his sleeve.
Heukno looked at the Sub-Hon Demon Lord and smiled. His smile was filled with the confidence of someone who made fun of him. He was too young, even if he was young.

“I heard that a new Soul Demon Lord had taken over, but I didn’t know it would be this young.”

The Sub-Mazon responded leisurely.

“You went to great lengths to capture a single woman and a child. Does that old body of yours truly have the strength to take advantage of the gamblers?”

The Sub-Hon-Ma-Jon wasn’t pushed back in a battle of wits. She was always good at cursing and provoking her opponents. Today was no exception.

“And as you get older, you need to wash more often. You smell like a rotting corpse.”

She turned Heukno’s spirit upside down in one fell swoop.

“What a fucking bitch!”

A dark energy as sharp as a blade emanated from Heukno’s body.

Swaaaaaaah.

The Demon Lord of the Sub-Souls unleashed his inner strength to block the incoming aura.
The two men’s momentum was evenly matched.

The appearance of the Black Nose wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
It meant that the Young Leader was doing his job well. It also
meant that their situation was dire enough to warrant taking Cheonhwaruju hostage.

‘Yeah, things aren’t going your way, are they?’

Then someone else came in from behind the black hat.

“Let’s put off the fight for a moment.”

At the polite words, Heukno withdrew his previously unleashed aura.
The one who entered was the divine princess Ga-ye. She, who had seemingly disappeared, had reappeared.

Gaye slowly approached Cheonhwaruju. Perhaps because she trusted Heukno, she showed no fear of the Demon Lord standing beside her.

Cheonhwaruju and Ga-ye stood facing each other. Cheonhwaruju was the first to speak.

“What kind of lie are you trying to tell this time?”

He’d been told to come alone, but it turned out to be a trap.
Even though he had ten mouths, he was at a loss for words when Gaye appeared before him again.
And Gaye didn’t apologize for that.

“The young cult leader is right.”

For some reason, she didn’t hide her true feelings.

“I wanted to kill you.”

Cheonhwaruju listened quietly to her words, which were like confessions.

“When the princess gave the order to summon you here, I secretly expected it. You’re finally going to die.”

As Cheonhwaruju listened to her, he began to think that perhaps the person who had saved him from her was the Dark Princess.

“I understand you recently received a prophecy. What was it?”
“How did you know?”

During the World’s Best Beauty Contest, it was prophesied that the evil Soma would stab the heart of the Sword Master.

“I just knew it. Now tell me what the prophecy is.”

Gaye wondered what the prophecy meant. Cheonhwaruju knew exactly where she’d come from to try to kill him.
Instead of answering, Cheonhwaruju asked.

“How long has it been since you received the prophecy?”

For a moment, Gaye’s eyes turned cold.

“Who are you to dare to speak of the Princess Shinnyo’s prophecy?”
“That’s right, I’m not from the Princess Shinnyo.”

That’s why. That’s why I was so angry. I had staked everything on the shrine, but the prophecy was given to someone who ran away because they hated the shrine.

“This world will be ruled by those born with the Thousand-Sal Star. This prophecy is fake, isn’t it?”
“Shut up!”

From her intense reaction, Cheonhwaruju could tell that the Princess Shinnyeo had already lost her way. Perhaps that was why the prophecy was coming down to her after she left the Princess Shinnyeo Palace.

On the one hand, I understood her. I knew better than anyone how exhausting it was to grow up as a princess in that closed space. And I also knew how a priestess who couldn’t receive prophecies was treated.

Gaye said with an indifferent look in her eyes.

“No matter what prophecy you receive, nothing changes. You’re going to die anyway.”

She was threatening, but Cheonhwaruju could sense that she was afraid of something.

“What are you afraid of? Is it the Thousand-Slayer Star?”

The emotion in Gaye’s eyes was a primal fear that could not be hidden.

“We should have had that power.”

Although the exact contents of the Cheonhwaruju were unknown, at least one could guess to whom the power went.

“No, it’s right for the young cult leader to have that power. He’s the one who will use it properly, no matter what power it is.”

Cheonhwaruju persuaded her.

“I believe there’s still a chance. If you truly believe in Heaven’s will, the final prophecy will be yours. Side with Heaven, not with the Young Cult Leader or the Dark Princess. Just as the Shinnyeo Palace did in the old days.”

It was at that very moment that Gaye’s eyes slightly wavered.

Ssssssss.

The dark energy flowing around Cheonhwaruju began to recede on its own. This energy was an innate energy that flowed naturally from Heukno’s body.

However, even though the Demon Lord of the Underworld hadn’t intentionally pushed him away, the energy began to repel Cheonhwaruju.
Just then, Cheonhwaruju let out a short exclamation, and then said something surprising.

“The prophecy is about to come down.”

He felt as if a prophecy was about to be revealed.
Despite the unexpected situation, the Sub-Hon-Ma-Jon nodded with a calm expression.

“I will protect you, so receive the prophecy.”

Cheonhwaruju immediately sat down and pulled a white cloth from her bosom. It was the divine dream.
Before covering her eyes, she had seen Ga-ye’s face, filled with despair, but she had no time to examine her now.

Honestly, I didn’t want to accept the prophecy. If it had nothing to do with the evil Soma, or with the Sword Dance Theater, I wouldn’t have accepted it.

But now was the time to accept it. If the heavens were to send down a prophecy at this moment, it would also have meaning.

Gaye’s face twisted into a grimace. Why
would a prophecy come down at this very moment? Right here, right here, watching? Right now, as she vented her anger at not receiving the prophecy?
This was heaven ignoring her. If heaven were like this, she wouldn’t believe it again.

Or maybe the Thousand Flower Pearl in front of him is deceiving him.

In any case, there was only one reaction Gaye could give. Her eyes were filled with murderous intent.

“Kill him.”

As Gaye turned around, Heukno stepped forward.

“That can’t be. It’s my job to take that woman to the princess.”

The Dark Princess didn’t just want to take her as a hostage.

“I must tell the princess the contents of that prophecy.”

The Demon Lord Seop-Hon stood in front of Cheonhwa-Ru-Ju.

“If it was a prophecy you needed to hear, it would have been given to you, the priestess.”

The Sub-Honma-Jon added this one thing to the task of protecting the Thousand-Haired One. I was annoyed the whole time I was listening.

“Hey, fake priestess.”

At the words of the Demon Lord, Ga-ye, who had been turning away, bit her lip. The words “fake” shook her heart.

“From now on, blame me, not the heavens. I’ll kill you.”

It was chilling. It was the Demon Lord Seophon who had foretold her death.
But when she turned around, Ga-ye didn’t look frightened at all.

“Did you tell me to bring that kid back alive too?”
“Of course not.”

Heukno laughed coldly. He was determined to kill him as painfully as possible.
He had already demonstrated a powerful move from the start.

Aaaa …

A powerful force emanated from the palm of Black Noh’s hand and flew towards the Demon Lord.

Shureuk.

Suddenly, something appeared in the air before the Sub-Hon-Ma-Jon.
It was one of the strange patterns painted on the Sub-Hon-Ma-Jon’s carriage.
The incoming force struck the pattern, changing direction and sending it hurtling towards the wall.

Kwaaang!

The cabin walls were shattered, but beyond them, a swaying darkness lingered. The aura of the Great Destruction of Greed surrounded the ship, so no matter how hard you fought, you didn’t have to worry about the ship sinking.

“You’re showing off some strange tricks.”

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeek!

This time, he unleashed an even more powerful blast.

Slurp.

Another pattern appeared in the air, this time redirecting the flying tension towards where Gaye was standing.

Kwaang.

The tension that was flying towards Gaye was blocked by Heukno’s hand.

Sssssss.

Black smoke rose from his palm, releasing the tension he had created.

“That’s quite a lot.”

The disdainful expression vanished from Heukno’s face. Considering the story just recorded, it was by no means a force easily blocked.
Furthermore, the fact that he didn’t simply let it slip away, but instead accurately reflected it back at Ga-ye was truly extraordinary.

One of the poisonous magic techniques of the Sehon Majon, the Soul Transformation Technique, has been demonstrated.

He doesn’t know how much effort the Sub-Hon Demon Lord has put in. He’s sacrificed sleep to train to keep up with the other Demon Lords. He
also knows that at the center of all this effort lies the exceptional master known as the Fengtian Sect Leader.

The black man recited the spell.

Gurrrrrrrr.

The floor began to shake and vibrate as if an earthquake were occurring.
Parts of the floor began to bulge, and something burst out, as if bursting out of an egg.

Surprisingly, they were skeletons.

The most powerful of the dark magic of Heukno, the Nine Springs Descent Technique, was unleashed.

Those skeletons, so terrifying to behold, were no illusion.
From their eyes streamed the piercing blue light of the dead.

It was a blessing that Cheonhwaruju had her eyes covered. Even the most courageous person would have difficulty maintaining composure at this sight.

Of course, the Sub-Honma-Jon was not afraid at all.

“Now I know why the rotting corpse smelled so bad.”

She quietly recited the verse.

Slurp.

Unintelligible letters began to be etched on the floor.
Centered around the cross-legged Thousand-Heared Demon Lord and the Sub-Hon-Ma-Jun standing before him, the letters were etched in a circular pattern. Light emanated from the engraved letters.

The moment when the skeletons are about to go beyond the letters.

chin.

There was an invisible barrier blocking their path.
The martial art displayed by the Demon Lord was the Demonic Gate Boundary Technique.

The skeletons clung to each other and struck down an invisible barrier with the weapons they were holding.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

But the barrier created by the ghosts’ writing remained unbroken.
The Demon Lord was buying as much time as possible. He believed that if a fight broke out, he might not receive the prophecy.

“That’s quite a lot.”

The black eagle, who had been watching, unleashed a burst of energy onto the floor. He didn’t waste his energy destroying the demonic barrier. His energy struck the floor.

Kwaaaaang!

The floor shattered under his immense force and he fell down.

Kwarrrrrr!

Cheonhwaruju, who had been sitting cross-legged, gently descended to the lower level. The Demon Lord of the Underworld unleashed his inner power, bringing her down safely. Gaye also did the same, allowing Black Noh to descend unharmed.

Did he think that collapsing the floor would destroy the letters on the floor and destroy the demonic barrier?
However, even after falling to the lower floor, both the letters and the barrier remained intact.

Boom! Kwaang!

The black eagle’s energies once again shattered the floor.
This time, everyone fell down.

The black dragon wasn’t trying to destroy the demon gate barrier. The dark aura grew thicker as it fell lower.

After descending a few more times, I found myself in a thick, dark aura. I’d deliberately avoided the dark aura as I climbed, but I ended up plummeting down like this.

Pitter-patter! Pitter-patter!

Indeed, the skeletons’ power to break the barrier had become incomparably stronger.
Yet, the Demon Lord’s barrier remained unbroken.

Just then, Heukno recited the poem again.

Then, the skeletons who had been knocking on the barrier retreated as if in fear. What they were feeling was clearly fear.

Gurrrrrrrrrr!

As soon as the mantra was recited, a vibration of unprecedented magnitude occurred.
A skeleton, much larger and more massive than the one previously summoned, rose from the ground.

The skeleton summoned this time wore armor made of bone. Its eye sockets were even deeper, and the blue light emanating from them was so intense that it seemed like jewels were embedded in them.

Each finger bone was as sharp as a blade, and between the bones flowed the aura of death that crushed the opponent.

It was the King of the Skeletons, the Nine Springs King.

The King of the Nine Heavens held a huge sword in one hand, and it looked like a god of death had ascended from hell.

The eyes of the Sub-Hon-Ma-Jon, who was watching it, deepened.

“It has a soul.”

The Nine Heavenly Kings were different from mere skeletons. I sensed a soul within them. It was a vicious spirit, filled with nothing but rage, resentment, and murderous intent.

The black knight, confident of victory, laughed loudly.

“Try to stop this too.”

The giant sword of the Nine Heavens Kings flew towards the barrier.

Bam! Bam!

The first attack shook the barrier violently, and the second, even more powerful attack caused a crack in the barrier. The force was truly immense.

Sizzle.

The Demon Lord turned to look at Cheonhwaruju.
She was still sitting, her eyes covered by the divine dream. He had to protect her, at least until he received the prophecy.

“What are you doing? We need to fill the hole quickly.”

As if he really wanted to do that to Heukno’s mockery, the Demon Lord of the Sub-Hon began to recite the Nine-Tails.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

The barrier began to crack in an instant due to the continuous, indiscriminate attacks.

Oh my god!

Now, with one final blow, the barrier would be completely shattered. The small skeletons surrounded the barrier, ready to swarm in if the barrier broke.

“I guess I’ll have to pick a new Soul Demon Lord. The location isn’t good.”

The King of the Nine Heavens delivered the final blow.

Crack, crack,
crack.

Heukno looked up, his face trembling with shock.
He was clutching the sword that the Nine Heavens King had struck down. A dark aura rippled from the palm of his hand that blocked the sword, and his arm trembled with shock.

“……What are you?”

The King of the Nine Heavens, who was about to deliver the final blow, suddenly turned around and struck himself.

Black Noh’s surprised gaze turned to the Demon Lord of the Nine Heavens standing behind him.

‘no way?’

The same blue energy flowing from the eyes of the Nine Heavens and Ten Kings flowed from her eyes as well.
She wasn’t reciting the nine verses to strengthen the barrier. Surprisingly, she was trying to seduce the summoned Nine Heavens and Ten Kings.

Even if it’s something you made, the moment it becomes imbued with a soul!

“This skull is now mine.”
