Chapter 154: A New Perspective (1)

Hwaaack!

There was a bright glow and Kang-jun was moved to a completely different space.

This was another space.

It was a special space created by the harmony of the Chaos Knowledge Scripts.

Strange illusions were unfolding before Kang-jun’s eyes.

There were a total of three illusions!

The first illusion was Shadowless, who Kang-jun knew well, doing a specific action while holding a sword.

Every time his sword moved, a new dimensional space was created, then it would disappear.

’Isn’t this the first time I’m seeing it?’

It was Heaven’s Blood Sword Style.

He had seen a trace of the Heaven’s Blood Sword Style before Shadowless died, but it now looked completely different.

‘He seems to be swinging his sword roughly, but the dimensional space disappears and reappears again.’

Of course, it wasn’t difficult for Kang-jun to do it if he decided to. However, the illusion of Shadowless’ actions were natural and light.

However, Shadowless seemed to be in serious distress.

Why did the illusion look like that?

Kang-jun decided to follow Shadowless’ movements.

Kang-jun used Heaven’s Blood Sword and instantly assimilated Shadowless’ movements.

Papapat!Sususu!Supak!

However, Kang-jun felt something strange as he followed the actions.

It was a sense of stuffiness.

What did it mean?

Kang-jun followed Shadowless’ movements without hesitation. After a while, he was moving completely like Shadowless.

‘That’s right.’

Kang-jun’s eyes shone.

’It is incomplete.’

An incomplete technique!

It was a knowledge piece for a new technique.

That’s why Shadowless was frustrated.

The technique wasn’t perfect.

Kang-jun’s heart started beating wildly.

However, what if it was completed?

He couldn’t even imagine what the result would be.

Although it was incomplete, it showed a way to move forward.

It was at that moment…

[After gaining enlightenment through the Chaos Knowledge Script, you have gained a lot of experience and your level will rise by 13.]

He reached Lv330.

He leveled up just from enlightenment. As a result, Kang-jun felt a dramatic increase in his attack power.

However, there were still new perspectives to consider.

Kang-jun turned his head and looked at the second illusion.

A female warrior was wielding a red spear.

Pa pa pa pa!

The energy that emerged from her spear reminded him of a chaos storm which had stirred in Pavalia Station.

It was a spear technique that he had seen for the first time.

However, at first glance, he felt like it was just as good as the Heaven’s Blood Sword Style.

The trajectory and movement of the spear was like a sudden blowing wind and a gently rolling lake. Sometimes, it had the flexible movements of a fish and other times, it had the rough movements of a beast.

The movements of creatures and inanimate objects…

The transforming spear contained everything in nature!

’The more I look, the more profound it seems.’

Then after some time…

A normal looking stab caused a chaotic storm to arise.

‘That is?’

Kang-jun’s eyes widened. It was something similar to what Shadowless had displayed a while ago.

Something was blocked. So, it was frustrating. This was also unfinished.

It was obvious from the expression of the woman holding the spear that she felt limitations of the technique.

Pa pa pa pa!

Hwiririk!Papapat!

Since then, the warrior’s spear moved constantly.

Kang-jun observed the movements and trajectory of the spear for a long time.

Before he knew it, Kang-jun was holding a spear in his hand and he followed the movements of the warrior.

[After gaining enlightenment through the Chaos Knowledge Script, you have gained a lot of experience and your level will rise by 15.]

Once again, his level rose.

Lv345!

Kang-jun’s combat power increased dramatically.

‘The next stage is still vague.’

Still, Kang-jun didn’t give up his expectations for the last illusion. It was certain that collecting three of the Chaos Knowledge Scripts would allow him to gain a different perspective into a new world.

Susususu.

The final illusion was an old man holding a staff with a blue jewel. Once he cast a spell, the dimension changed into a wasteland and then into a real sea.

‘……!’

Kang-jun’s heart jumped the moment he saw it.

It was magic but not ordinary magic.

This was magic that moved dimensions.

It had an amazing harmony that changed the dimensional space!

Kang-jun tried to follow the old man using his knowledge of magic.

He used his understanding of transcendental magic as well as his 315 points in the intelligence stat.

The ability to see the essence of magic had been added after he became a chaos being, so it wasn’t difficult for Kang-jun to follow the old man’s magic.

Swaahh!Swaahh!

Kwa kwa kwa kwa!Kukukung.

it was a series of processes that transformed constantly and recreated dimensions, rather than attacking or defending something.

However, Kang-jun felt like it could exert tremendous havoc in battle.

[After gaining enlightenment through the Chaos Knowledge Script, you have gained a lot of experience and your level will rise by 12.]

His level rose again. It rose by 12 to reach Lv357.

Kang-jun felt his power increase but something was missing.

’This is also incomplete. That magic is nothing more than an illusion that the old man dreamt of.’

Although his battle power increased continuously, Kang-jun couldn’t help feeling disappointed.

Rather, he felt a wall.

There was a wall in front of him, so he felt like the three knowledge scripts were simply a prank.

In the end, Shadowless’ technique, the female warrior’s spearmanship and the old man’s magic were just illusions they’d had during their lives.

They weren’t abilities that existed but the dreams they grasped for.

So, they could only be called illusions. He had to piece through these illusions to overcome the absolute wall.

It was an absolute barrier that had to be broken through!

“……!”

Kang-jun suddenly closed his eyes.

He had thought they were simply illusions.

However, the three illusions merged strangely in his imagination.

The dimensional sword of Shadowless, the woman’s dimensional spear and the old man’s dimensional magic…

They pursued an area that couldn’t be regarded as a mere dimension.

He had to surpass what they had been pursuing. Instead of getting stuck at the dimension level, he had to seek more.

‘A bigger dimension.’

He had to go beyond the small worlds and even the dimensional sea that included Pavalia Station!

In Kang-jun’s imagination, images of a myriad of dimensions appeared like illusions and started to orbit around each other. It was like watching a myriad of galaxies revolving around the universe.

Kang-jun’s eyes turned blurry like he was dreaming.

He closed his eyes.

It was no longer an illusion.

At least, that was the case in Hwanmong;

An absolute wall didn’t exist.

[Your level limit has risen to Lv500.]

At that moment, a message appeared. His limit had risen from Lv400 to Lv500.

However, he had only just peeked at the road. The next stage definitely existed and there was a possibility he might reach it someday.

Meanwhile, the illusions of Shadowless, the female and the old man disappeared.

He floated alone in Pavalia Station, not the space of nothingness.

After a while, he went into the sealed Hwanmong world.

There were eight separate spaces.

One was the forest where Luminael was. This place could be described as the prison for good behaviour.

The remaining seven prisoners were all in solitary spaces. All of them were receiving the Punishment of Time.

[Demonic God Tonnach – 100 years punishment complete.]

[Demonic God Hatunia – 100 years punishment complete.]

[Celestial Goddess Shaoniel – 100 years punishment complete.]

[Celestial God Tarub – 100 years punishment complete.]

By the time Kang-jun arrived, all of the Punishments of Time were over.

They had spent 100 years in those solitary spaces.

‘I don’t know if their mindsets have been reset yet.’

Kang-jun erased all the solitary areas and called them to Luminael’s forest.

Everybody looked different.

The two demonic gods seemed sluggish while Shaoniel kept twisting around like she was seeing ghosts.

The celestial gods, including Lius, were a wreck of their former selves.

The demonic gods cursed as soon as they saw Kang-jun,

“Oduduk! Do you think you will be safe like this? I will make you suffer a thousand times more.”

“Kill! I will kill you! Kukakaka!”

It wasn’t just the demonic gods. Lius and the other heavenly gods also cursed him.

“Kukuk! Do you think I will give in to you?”

“An insignificant human thinks he is superior just because he has the power of Hwanmong.”

“Kuahahaha! Sooner or later, the chief gods will come. Then it will be your end.”

Luminael had also cursed him at first. However, his expression soon turned apologetic attitude at the thought of facing punishment again.

However, the demonic gods and celestial gods weren’t like him.

It seemed like 100 years of punishment wasn’t good enough.

However, there was an exception.

While all the others looked vengeful, only Shaoniel was quiet after seeing Kang-jun.

She couldn’t look him in the eye.

What was she thinking?

He wanted to find out.

Kang-jun glanced into her eyes.

When she looke at Kang-jun, anger poured out of her eyes…

Resentment and anger!

However, it was only temporary as her eyes soon turned gloomy. They were full of despair and sorrow.

She was different from the others.

Even so, all of their attitudes weren’t what Kang-jun wanted.

Kang-jun stared at them and said coldly,

“Uh, I don’t see any signs of proper reflection. Then it can’t be helped. I can only give more punishment.”

“……!”

All of them flinched.

The demonic gods, who had been screaming about tearing Kang-jun to death, shut their mouths abruptly and the demonic god, Tonnach, exclaimed,

“W-wait a minute! Please let me go. If you release me, I won’t go near you again. I promise.”

The demonic god Hatunia also exclaimed hurriedly,

“I will also stop if you release me. I will never near you or Pavalia Station.”

The demonic gods seemed to be afraid of the Punishment of Time.

Kang-jun stared at them and said,

“What are you talking about? You still don’t understand.”

They said those words, but their eyes didn’t show any signs of truth. Besides, he didn’t like their tone.

Thus, Kang-jun waved his hands and said,

“I’ll see you in 100 years.”
