Chapter 48 – Day 48

Day 48

“Activate the Yin-Yang Revolution Formation!”

The man had barely finished shouting when massive spiritual energy erupted from several of the surrounding buildings.

The enormous spiritual energy, undulating like waves, intertwined in the air, and soon a formation was activated.

The activated formation, true to its name of Yin-Yang World-Changing Formation, demonstrated its immense power.

The earth and sky flipped, crumbling here and there.
From the collapsed areas, lava that devoured everything began to rise and slowly advance towards Cheon Seoa….

“Is this all?”

As the lava approached her, Cheon Seoa muttered with a disappointed expression while making a gesture.

With that single light gesture, the approaching lava was pushed back.
Moreover, the Yin-Yang World-Changing Formation, which the Yin-Yang Sect had boasted about, was shattered to pieces, losing its effectiveness.

The flipped earth and sky returned to their original positions.
The holes where lava had gushed out were filled, disappearing without a trace.

The expressions of the Yin-Yang Sect cultivators, including the man, were filled with shock, as if they couldn’t believe their prized Yin-Yang World-Changing Formation could be neutralized with a single gesture.

“If you relied on just one formation… I’m a bit disappointed.”

“That can’t be!”

Cheon Seoa spoke again with a disappointed expression.
At Cheon Seoa’s gaze, expression, and muttering, the man gritted his teeth harshly and formed various hand seals.

As the man’s hands moved busily, forming seals one after another.

Boom-!

With an intense vibration, the ground split open, and from that crack, a large number of dolls crawled up and revealed themselves.

The dolls all had bizarre appearances, as if various beasts had been mixed together.

The doll, created by combining the strengths of various beasts, resembled a chimera, one of the monsters that appear in fantasy novels at first glance.

“No matter how strong you are! You won’t be able to do anything against the violence of numbers!”

The man who pulled out what seemed to be hundreds of dolls at a glance shouted confidently.

Cheon Seoa looked at the man as if he was pathetic.

Indeed, unlike other Repairers, this man was a Repairer from the Repair World.
Moreover, he was a Repairer who had reached the level of Hwashingi.

If so, he should have known how vast the difference between one level was.
Especially when one goes beyond Hwashingi and enters the realm of Inseon, it could no longer be seen as human… no, not even as a living being.

It was like a natural disaster itself.
No, it could be said to be something even beyond that, those Repairers who have achieved the realm of Inseon and beyond.

Despite knowing this fact well, to be so confident with just a few hundred dolls at the level of Geumdan-gi.

Has he forgotten the common sense of the Repair World after staying on Earth for too long?
Or is his brain running on a happiness circuit to hold onto even a sliver of hope in the face of such great despair?

Whatever it may be.

“This isn’t much different from Bihwamun, you know.”

Swoosh-.

With a sad expression, Cheon Seoa made a gesture.

However, this gesture of Cheon Seoa’s was different from before.

If Cheon Seoa’s previous gestures were like shooing away an annoying fly buzzing in front of her.

Now, her gestures were like conducting a grand orchestra, with each stroke of her hand in the air completing a line of a grand picture.

Then, as lines were drawn in the air matching Cheon Seoa’s hand gestures, completing a picture.

“Speaking of dolls, I actually made dolls in the past too.”

As if she had never shown a disappointed expression, this time Cheon Seoa spoke with a bright smile.

No sooner had her words ended than with a strange sound “giiiiing-!”, the space distorted.

And from that distorted space, dozens of coffins revealed themselves, falling to the ground with “thud! Thud!”

The coffins that fell to the ground around Cheon Seoa were all different sizes.

Some weren’t even 1m long, while others boasted enormous sizes exceeding 10m.

However, while the sizes of the coffins themselves might vary, there was one common feature.

“What…!”

The man, looking at the coffins that had fallen around Cheon Seoa, forcibly gripped his trembling hands and muttered in disbelief.

It was impossible.

It shouldn’t be possible.

He could tell what was in those coffins without even looking.

Just now, hadn’t that monster said she too had made dolls?

That meant those coffins must certainly contain dolls made by the monster.

And that’s precisely why it made even less sense.

How on earth.

How could mere dolls…!

“Possess the power of Divine Vessels!”

The man shouted as if forcibly scraping the words from inside himself.

That man’s unbelieving cry only deepened Cheon Seoa’s smile.

Creeeeak-

The coffin’s door opened, and beyond it, dozens of dolls revealed themselves.

What Cheon Seoa has brought out now is not the Cheon Seoa series she had shown to the nine villains in the past.

The motif of the dolls she’s brought out this time is Pandemonium.
Perhaps because they were created based on the demon’s hall and the city of hell that appears in John Milton’s epic poem “Paradise Lost”.

The dolls that emerged from the coffin each had a terrifying and hideous appearance, more than enough to be called demons.

“This can’t be happening… This shouldn’t be happening…”

The man still muttered in a trembling voice.

Among the dolls Cheon Seoa brought out, the weakest one was similar to a Repairman who had entered the realm of Avatar, and the strongest one was so powerful that he couldn’t even fathom the depth of its strength, which was why he was still in shock.

No, it was even more so because the man was from the Repair world.

In the Repair world, dolls were perceived as mere toys. Nothing more, nothing less.

No matter how good the materials used.
No matter how skilled the Repairman who made them, it was difficult to expect great effects compared to the effort and materials put in.

It was already a miracle that the man before her had managed to create a doll reaching the maximum Forbidden level…

Cheon Seoa looked at the man and smiled brightly.

“Ah, of course, I won’t be using these dolls. It’s just… how should I put it? Since you brought out your doll, I thought I’d show off my dolls too.”

As Cheon Seoa said this with a smile and gestured, the coffins scattered around her.
Furthermore, the dozens of demons that had crawled out of those coffins disappeared without a trace.

“You…!”

Deren gritted his teeth roughly at Cheon Seoa, who was acting as if deceiving herself, saying ‘I’m so great.’

But.

“Hoo-.”

Soon, the man exhaled deeply, reining in his emotions that were boiling over with anger.

The opponent is a monster wielding absolute power, having achieved a level that someone like him couldn’t even imagine.

No matter how much he had entered the realm of Hwashingi, to the monster before him, he would be nothing more than an insignificant insect.

Meanwhile, Cheon Seoa tilted her head at the man who suddenly seemed to have lost his will…

“One thing. May I ask for just one thing?”

“A request?”

Cheon Seoa tilted her head again at the man’s suddenly polite tone.

“Please… I beg you to spare the disciples of the Yin-Yang Sect. They know nothing from the start. All these faults are entirely…”

“No.”

“Why…!”

“Isn’t that obvious? If you’re from the Sunseon Realm, you should know well. Ignore gratitude, but never ignore grudges. No matter how trivial a grudge might be, if you don’t nip it in the bud immediately, it’s likely to become troublesome later.”

“What nonsense is this! To you, the disciples of our Yin-Yang Sect should be less than dust floating in the air!”

“Well, that’s true. But. I don’t want to. Besides, if I spare the disciples of the Yin-Yang Sect, wouldn’t it be too unfair for the disciples of the Bihwa Sect?”

Bihwa Sect?
Why is the Bihwa Sect coming up here?

The Bihwa Sect had vanished without a trace a few weeks ago.

“Could it be…?”

The man looked at Cheon Seoa with trembling eyes.

No way, it couldn’t be.
It can’t be. But what if it’s true?
Could the reason why the Bihwamun disappeared without a trace really be….

“Was it because of you?”

“That’s right. Oh, but don’t get any strange ideas. They were the ones who messed with me first, so I just retaliated in my own way.”

“Ha, haha. Ahahaha-!”

At Cheon Seoa’s words, the man let out a hollow laugh as if he had lost his mind.

After laughing for a while like that.

“Oh, shit!”

Kugugu-!

The man shouted desperately and moved hundreds of dolls at once to attack Cheon Seoa.

If death was certain either way.
Shouldn’t he at least try to struggle?

As hundreds of dolls moved according to the man’s will, shaking the ground as they charged.

“That’s it. That’s how a Repairer should be.”

Muttering those words with a slight smile, Cheon Seoa lightly clenched her fist.

Crack!
Crack! Crack!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

The dolls rushing towards Cheon Seoa were compressed into small balls, one by one, along with the space around them.

It took only about 3 seconds for hundreds of dolls to turn into hundreds of balls.

3 seconds.
It was an incredibly short time for an ordinary person, but for a Repairman who had reached the level of Incarnation, it was more than enough time to prepare for the next attack.

As if to prove this.

Whoosh-!
Crackle-!

Centered on Cheon Seoa, on the right side, flames that could instantly vaporize even steel.
Centered on Cheon Seoa, on the left side, a cold air that seemed capable of freezing everything in the world swirled around.

“Die-!”

The man shouted desperately again.

Was he making a final struggle by drawing even his own life force?

The man’s two eyes and nose. Ears and mouth. Furthermore, all the pores on his entire body.

Red blood was overflowing from every hole on the man’s body.

“Hmm, the spirit is good, but the level is still lacking.”

Snap-.

Cheon Seoa, looking at the man with a regretful expression, snapped her fingers.

As an incredibly clear sound that couldn’t possibly be thought to have been made by snapping fingers rang out, the flames and cold air trying to engulf Cheon Seoa instantly subsided.

No, that’s not it.

The man created flames and cold air.
What was thought to have disappeared was actually condensed into a single point, forming a small bead in front of Cheon Seoa.

Inside the bead, flames and cold air swirl, repelling and colliding with each other.
Its unstable appearance seemed so precarious that it might explode at the slightest touch….

“Still, it was kind of fun.”

Muttering that, Cheon Seoa lightly taps the bead and disappears in an instant.

As soon as Cheon Seoa vanishes, the shocked bead begins to expand rapidly….

“Aaaaargh-!”

The moment the man lets out a scream-like howl, the expanded bead bursts and engulfs the Yin-Yang Gate.

Flames and cold air.
The explosion caused by the repulsion and collision of these two opposing forces soon created a massive earthquake, causing part of Mount Fuji to sink.
