For over two hundred years, she had encountered many souls as she occupied other people’s bodies.

Most of the souls could not withstand her strength. She had only grown stronger and more vicious over the years, and most were almost driven out.

However, the soul was located in the depths of the body.

This was completely different from the souls she had encountered so far. Anger, murderous internet, and chaos were so intricately entwined in this body that the depth of the void was unknown.

‘His soul… is different. Could this be the Will?’

This had to be the Will.

There were remnants of grudges and souls of the dead, but she never thought a will would be this strong.

‘W-what is this? How could such an existence be in this body….’

It was a superior existence that even she, capable of sorcery and tricks, could never handle.

A will that was this strong.

‘I cannot push it away.’

This will wasn’t something she could handle. She would only end up consumed.

She tried every little trick she knew how to get away from this will which threatened to encroach on her very being.

‘The sky and land are of the spirits!’

She reached out to try to use the chants she had memorized to drive away demons.

This spell should work if this Will was nothing more than a grudge.

‘The sky and land are of the spirits!’

Shhhh!

Could it work?

The energy eating away at her soul weakened for a moment. In an instant, she tried to run far away.

‘I need to get out!’

This was the truth.

She didn’t know why such a monster was trapped in his body, but she couldn’t push it out.

‘I need to get out! I need to run…’

Even though she didn’t even have a body, her soul was gasping as she began to run. However, something got in the way.

She wondered if the Will had followed her, but it was different.

‘Is this his soul?’

If that was the case, then she was lucky. Even if she could push this original soul out, then she could control the body.

‘It is like walking backward to catch a mouse. Kekekeke.’

If it wasn’t for that Will, there was nothing here she would be afraid of. Cheol Su-ryun’s soul regained confidence and approached the soul to throw it out.

But then, she heard a disturbing noise.

Crack!

It was the sound of nails being bitten. Her soul was suddenly filled with nervousness.

That had to be the Blood Demon’s soul.

The only thing that soul gave her was an impression of fear and impatience.

‘Found it. It’s this one.’

Now all she had to do was push the soul out. How strong could the soul of such a child be? Especially if he had only lived for 20 years…

Crack!

At that moment, this nervousness within her reached its peak. The moment their souls came into contact with each other, Cheol Su-ryun could not hide her shock.

While it was obvious that the soul was agitated, the moment she came into contact with it, she could feel that it was disgustingly vast. Despite being smaller than the Will she met earlier, she felt that this soul was strong.

‘W-what is this?’

-A new one?

‘T-this isn’t his soul either. You… what are you?’

This one was also its own Will.

It was not the Blood Demon’s soul.

Considering how delicate and emotional the soul was, it was clearly the Will of a female. However, it was a woman who was much older than her. The evil nature and demonic qi emanating it was so intense that it shook her.

-You are a new one. It would be nice if you were a man.

‘What?’

-Still, you seem good enough to play with.

That strange and sly voice gave her goosebumps. Feeling a strong sense of wariness, Cheol Su-ryun’s spirit ran wildly and tried to escape from this mysterious Will that was latching on to her.

‘What is with this boy? Why are there such monsters within him?’

From her experience, a soul could only last for a hundred years. Yet this soul was much older.

-Kakakakal, you cannot get out now. Give up. It would be better to take care of you than handle those monsters.

Cheol Su-ryun was losing it.

It felt like she could taste metal in her mouth as the woman holding her soul began encroaching on it. Her strength was diminishing.

She didn’t know if it would work.

‘The sky and land are of the spirits! Enhance vision!’

Cheol Su-ryun chanted the spell to chase the demon away. Since these were wills in a spiritual form and without a body, the spells should be effective against them. The encroachment soon stopped.

‘Now.’

Cheol Su-ryun’s soul escaped once more.

-There is nowhere to run in here.

That voice made her even more anxious. She no longer wanted this boy’s body.

She didn’t know how these monsters got trapped inside him, but she knew she would end up eaten by them if she didn’t get out.

‘I need to get out. I need….’

At that moment, she managed to ascend slightly.

She could leave this body if she could reach the light. She needed to escape somehow before this evil decided to fully take over this body!

Chhiiii!

‘ACKKKK!’

At that moment, she was filled with burning pain. The moment she touched the light, her soul should have escaped, but this was unexpected.

‘T-this is…’

The bright light felt as if it was burning her. She tried to exit again but felt the same pain.

Chiiiik!

‘AHHH! It is hot! So hot!’

Even if there was such heat, would the pain be this bad? It was as if her soul was being set ablaze.

Only then did she realize what had happened.

‘T-this… is not the exit? No… this cannot be….’

She assumed the light had to be its exit due to its strength, but this light was something else.

‘I-Immortal qi?’

This was immortal qi.

If she was the Yin, then this place was the Yang.

If the Yang energy was small, she could fight against it, but this was too large for her to fight.

‘How can you have such an evil will and such bright qi in one body…’

-Huhuhu. The number of guests within has increased.

That voice filled with qi echoed in her head.

That was an absolute being that could not be touched. This was no simple will.

This was a being who had entered the realm of immortals.

‘W-what are you?’

-People of this world called this old man the Sword Immortal.

‘Sword Immortal!’

She was utterly shocked by this.

That was a name that everyone who practiced martial arts was bound to know.

‘… it cannot be.’

The owner of the body she had entered surely belonged to the Blood Sect. Then why was the Will of the Sword Immortal in this body?

She could not comprehend how this had happened.

-I have just a piece of my Will in here. But how did a living soul enter this place?

‘I-I am….’

-Did you covet the body of this young man?

He already knew what her purpose was.

People called her the Revolting Mother, a name that struck fear in many people. Yet, no matter how skilled she was, she couldn’t help but feel fear when coming into contact with the Will of the Sword Immortal.

She was utterly speechless, as the Sword Immortal said.

-Such a pity, seriously. How can you be this greedy and lose yourself?

‘What is this?’

-This is a world of the Heavenly Fist which the Will controls. This Will, once entered, is a dead end that cannot be escaped.

Nothing else entered her ears. The only thing she heard was that she could enter but never leave.

‘No! No!’

This cannot be. Did she not live for 200 years?

She lived with just one purpose.

Yet she could not achieve that, but was rather locked up in a prison?

-Have you figured out the position you are in? Wench.

That evil voice resonated within this place. Even without a body, her soul trembled.

-I said you couldn’t run away.

Their wills considered her as prey.

Surrounded by so many wills, she fell into despair and chanted desperately.

‘The sky and land….!’

But nothing happened.

-Fool.

-It is a spell to drive the evil spirits away. Hehehe.

Instead, as if she had adapted to this place, the souls laughed at her and pulled her down.

Dragged down into the abyss, Cheol Su-ryun’s soul was eroded.

Shhhhhh!

‘NO! NOOOOOOOO!’

Wooong!

The fourth point of the Big Dipper-shaped dots on the back of his hand shone with an immense light, and the lost flame erupted.

‘What is this?’

I had a hard time understanding this situation. I lost consciousness after the Revolting Mother said she would take my body.

Instead, it seemed like she was pulled away by some kind of strong force.

‘Ah!’

The old woman was still on my back.

As I was about to remove her, the fourth dot turned purple.

Wheeeik!

At that moment, countless images ran through my head.

As complex memories and information were engraved in my mind, I became dizzy.

“Kuak!”

It was the same as when the Blood Demon and True Evil Sword were absorbed into my body. Along with memories I had never experienced, vast energy also flooded into me at the same time.

It moved from the child on my back.

‘Internal qi?’

It wasn’t just the flame of her soul; her internal qi was also being pulled in.

As her deep wellspring of internal qi rushed into me, unknown things filled my mind. When I cultivated it, a vast amount of internal qi flooded into my dantian and mixed with my existing qi.

I didn’t know why, but it was definitely a chance for me. I had to absorb this qi.

‘Phew.’

Unlike innate qi, internal qi was different, so I didn’t know how much of this I could absorb.

I integrated this internal qi through cultivation. I didn’t understand how a body this small could have so much internal qi.

Just as I felt that I had been absorbing qi for a bit too long.

Pat!

Sima Chak appeared through the bushes.

“This…”

Sima Chak came to me and looked in shock as he saw the child hanging from me. Then, as if he had sensed something strange, he moved away.

He must have noticed the qi flowing into me. If something interrupted this, both of us would be in danger.

“What the hell are you doing, old woman?”

Sima Chak seemed to think she was attacking me, so he observed and watched her movement.

It looked like he was looking for a chance to remove her from me.

“Cough…”

Instantly, blood flowed from my nose and mouth.

His meridians were overloaded by qi that his body could not accept.

At that moment…

“ACKKKK!”

The woman, who had been trying to rob him of his qi, was now pushing hers into me. As it was being forcibly pushed into me, we both coughed up blood simultaneously.

“Puat!”

“Cough!”

At that moment, Sima Chak tried to tear her away, but she grabbed my neck closer instead.

“Haaa… haaa…. Do not come closer!”

“Old woman!”

Sima Chak stopped his sword as she breathed roughly and said.

“You brat… just what are those things?”

Her voice was filled with fear.

The body parts attached to me were trembling as if she had gone through hell. Hearing this, Sima Chak could not understand and pointed his sword as he said.

“Old woman. Leave the boy alone.”

Hearing this, she looked at him.

She looked off into a vacant space and let out a cry.

“KAKAKAKAKAKAKKKK!”

Which echoed through the whole forest.

Sima Chak frowned as he wondered what the hell she was up to, but then the sounds of people filled the space around us.

Papapapt!

A large number of people were running here. At a rough estimate, I could feel dozens approaching.

The beings came through the bushes. They were none other than her monsters whose eyes and mouths were sewn shut.

I hadn’t expected so many to be hidden on this side of the river. She then shouted at them.

“Stop him!”

As soon as the order was made, her monsters rushed at Sima Chak.

She clenched her hand and said,

“If you don’t want to die, run west!”

It looked like she wanted to run away with me, but I refused to move.

Clench!

She clenched her hand around my neck and then said,

“Go!”

I then told her.

“Old woman… the situation has changed.”

“What?”

I raised my hand lightly and snapped my fingers.

Snap!

At that moment, the monsters that were running toward Sima Chak stopped, and our surroundings became silent.

Sima Chak, who was cutting down the monsters, could not his shock at the sight.

She was puzzled, then shouted again.

“Attack him!”

However, the monsters refused to move. I then said.

“Kneel.”

Shortly after, a strange thing happened.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The dozens of monsters knelt on the ground at the same time. Seeing this completely unexpected situation, she said.

“M-My children… why….”
