Chapter 1664 – 1664. God’s Atlantis
“You speak too openly. Don’t you think Chang’e might be listening and watching our conversation?”
“Don’t worry. The moon flower cannot see here. The moon mirror can only see where the moonlight falls, and I am the god of the moon. You can adjust how much the moonlight hits it.”
Tsukuyomi smiles, and she speaks confidently.
She didn’t seem to be of much help. As long as Chang’e has a head, he should know that I’m meeting Tsukuyomi. He may have guessed what kind of internal fire Tsukuyomi and I shared.
I grabbed Octo and stood up.
“Are you leaving already?”
“I know that time is not on my side. It’s not too late to take a break after all the work is done.”
Hehe! Let go, let go! I will walk!”
I let Octo go. Octo lets out a sigh as she brushes her paws.
“Beware her of her. To be honest with her, I have no idea what she’s doing either. She must be up to something unusual.”
“I get it.”
“Oh, and there are places on this moon that the moon mirror cannot see. Do you know?”
“Where is it?”
“The other side of the moon. It’s a place teeming with hideous monsters. If possible, don’t go there. It is a very dangerous place.”
I urged Octo with my eyes. Octo hops in front of her. Just like when she came up to Tsukuyomi’s mansion, she is unstoppable.
“Fertile soil. Do you know about the far side of the moon?”
“Sure. I am from there.”
“Are there too many monsters like Tsukuyomi said?”
“Tsukuyomi-sama exaggerated a little. Although there are many monsters, it is an orderly place. Of course, if you’re not careful, you’ll be eaten right away.”
“Is that also affected by the lunar sign?”
“Fairies don’t even approach the far side of the moon. As Tsukuyomi-sama said, it’s dangerous.”
I thought it would be best to run away to the far side of the moon when I was in trouble. Of course, I had no intention of losing to Hang-a at all.
Unlike when I climbed Wolsan, there was no fog at all. Thanks to this, I was able to see and enjoy the outstanding scenery of Wolsan. I saw creatures roaming all over the place.
“This way!”
The loam entered between the dense trees. The road was so thick that I couldn’t even see it well. Did it move without a break for about 5 minutes like that? Okto and I were already in the cave. The moisture unique to the cave clings to the skin.
“You have entered District 7,900, Lake of the Moon.”
“This is the hidden area.”
“It is cut off from the outside world.”
“All stats decrease by 10%.”
“Every three hours you have to give up one of your five senses. Choose which sense to give up among taste, touch, sight, smell, and hearing.”
“If you don’t choose within 50 seconds, it will be chosen randomly.”
“This is an uncontrollable area.”
A notification window popped up.
‘Hidden area. Again, this is surprising, but… The conditions are a bit tight.’
Being cut off from the outside meant that you couldn’t use the space movement order book. You probably won’t be able to peek at this place even with Chang’e’s moon mirror.
‘A 10% decrease in all abilities is also a decrease….’
It was too much to give up one of my senses.
“If you don’t choose within 37 seconds, it will be chosen randomly.”
“Give up your sense of taste.”
I had no choice. In terms of the importance of the senses, the sense of taste is the lowest. Then you give up your sense of smell.
‘Smell is the next problem. Tactile, visual, auditory. These are essential senses in combat. This is not a place to stay for long.’
When I moved, Octo also started to move. I asked Octo.
“Fertile soil. You haven’t given up your senses.”
“Yes? No. I gave up. Unlike Heavenly Demon-nim, I just answered in my heart.”
“What sense did you give up?”
“I gave up my sense of touch.”
“… My expectations were wrong. I knew you would give up your sense of taste, too.”
“Because without the sense of touch, you can die without pain.”
“I have no intention of killing you yet.”
“I will be killed by the Imoogi by the Heavenly Demon. It is virtually impossible to escape from the Imoogi.”
“I don’t give up.”
“Yes. Believe.”
Octo’s voice was powerless. He probably thinks I’m dying.
“Oh, this way.”
A crossroads emerged. There are as many as 7 branching roads. Okto chooses the path without hesitating for a second at the crossroads. She was amazing
“Have you ever been here?”
“No. It’s my first time. There is no reason to enter such a dangerous place.”
“You say you know the way even though it’s your first time?”
“Because that is my ability. At the fork in the road here, we have to go fourth.”
“What is the criterion for determining the road?”
“Ugh. It’s hard to put into words this… Should I just feel it?”
“It’s like a gut feeling.”
“Yes, yes. It’s similar.”
She passed through a complicated cave path and finally reached an underground lake.
The lake was very big. In terms of diameter, it seemed to be 1 km. Octo stepped behind me. Feeling a huge presence in the lake, I said to Octo.
“If you run away, you will die.”
“Hey… ! The Imoogi saw me! Even if I run away, the Imoogi will come after me and kill me! Heavenly Demon and I are a community of destiny!”
“You sound unpleasant.”
The surface of the calm lake began to rip violently. The giant being in the lake began to move.
Under the blue water of the lake, red light flashed along with dark shadows. The red light was the eyes of the Imoogi.
-I was just about to be hungry, but the food came to my feet. Also i’m lucky
The serpent soars over the lake. In the aftermath, water splashed in all directions. Wet, I clicked my tongue and checked the shape of the Imoogi. It was a snake big enough to swallow a person in one bite. The red eyes glaring at me are full of life.
-Come here.
The two red eyes of the Imoogi flashed.
I quietly watched the Imoogi. He was estimating the strength of the Imoogi. It’s my first time dealing with an Imoogi, so I’m not sure if it’s stronger than me. I guess I’ll have to fight myself to find out.
-Come here!!
“Noisy. Do you think he is an attendant who will come when you come?”
-… Will you resist my commandments? You’re not a normal human!
“Was that the language?”
Except for the loud noise, I didn’t feel any special power. Perhaps the Imoogi was weaker than expected.
-Jackanapes!
This time I felt the pressure all over my body. An invisible force has seized my body. I’ve experienced this similar power a few times.
‘It’s telekinesis.’
Breathe out and awaken the heavenly spirit from the danjeon. The heavenly demon runs through the qi and blood and spreads throughout the body. Dark energy flows out of my body little by little and resists the telekinesis.
– How can such an evil energy… !
The Imoogi paused.
Then he opens his mouth and spits poison out at me.
Heavenly Demon Goddess, Heavenly Demon’s Reign.
In one step, it crossed the space and appeared above the Imoogi’s head. When I glanced at the place where the poison was sprayed, the ground was melting.
I bent my knees and slammed my fist down on the top of the Imoogi.
Heavenly Demon Goddess, Heavenly Demon Fall.
A black explosion occurred. The Imoogi’s head twitched. I was thinking of smashing my head, but the leather was harder than I thought.
– It’s not ticklish!
The Imoogi shouted and shook its head around. I tried to avoid it with the Heavenly Demon, but the waves emitted from the Imoogi hindered my movement in space.
With a plop!
Falls into the lake
‘Shit. It’s difficult to occupy space. If I had been able to perfectly control the space, I wouldn’t have been swayed by waves.’
Apart from the proficiency of the Heavenly Demon Artisan, there was a lack of understanding of space.
– Under water is my domain! Since you fell into the lake, your end has been decided!
The Heavenly Demon Goddess Black Flame Demon Dragon.
A hot fire rises from my body. The surrounding water rose quickly. The serpent that was swimming towards me was startled and backed away, spinning around.
-How long can you last? I’ll wait until your flame goes out. I am confident that I can do better than anyone else when it comes to waiting.
Black Flame, which consumes a lot of mana, cannot be maintained for long.
I have the [Blessing of Water], But it’s not very helpful in this situation.
I calmly swung my fist at the Imoogi.
Heavenly Demon God Dragon Fist.
The energy of the Dragon Fist was shot towards the Imoogi. The Dragon Fist hit the Imoogi’s large body. The Imoogi didn’t even flinch. Power weakened by water.
-Puch. Is this your last outburst?
Ignored the laughing serpent and chose a different method.
Heavenly Demon Demonic Dragon.
The currents around me rotate. Immediately, the telekinesis of the Imoogi intervened and interfered. The revolving waters disappeared without a hitch.
‘This isn’t it.’
-Puhhhhh.
‘The King of Demonic Heaven’s Hoecheon Demon Dragon made the world spin.’
Remember that feeling at that time. Did not come to mind I wasn’t a genius enough to immediately recall the sensations I experienced once.
‘You can become a genius for a while. Time of genius.’
[Activates Time of Genius for 10 seconds.]
A feeling came.
The currents around me rotate little by little.
What mattered to Hoicheon Demon Dragon was strength and direction.
‘Until this time, I thought Hoicheon Demon Dragon was using the power of the wind… That wasn’t it. The wind is just a by-product of the Hoicheon Demon Dragon.’
As it rotates, its power increases. The current began to swirl around me.
– What crazy!
Sensing danger, the Imoogi hurriedly intervened in the rotation with telekinesis. The rotation, on the contrary, consumed the telekinesis.
The rotation grew rapidly, and finally began to eat even the Imoogi.
-Aaaaagh!
The Imoogi screamed. As his body was being torn apart, the lake was gradually stained with blood.
[The time of genius ends.]
Although the time of genius was over, the turning power did not end. The Imoogi’s scream also disappeared at some point.
‘…… I can’t control it.’
Fortunately, I was in the center of the vortex and didn’t take any damage.
‘I can’t stop this anymore.’
I decided to stay still until the rotational power disappeared.
