Chapter 275: 275
Chun Yeowun’s body was engulfed with the flame that shot out from behind . The heat coming from the explosion was overwhelming and felt as if all the skin on Yeowun’s back was melting . With fire all over his body, Yeowun couldn’t withstand the pain and screamed .
“Aaaaaaaaargh!”
He tried to endure the pain and jump, but he couldn’t fight against the power of the explosion . Yeowun was thrown out of the cave, and he couldn’t do anything but drop down with his body on fire . He then caught a glimpse of Mun Ku’s face gripped with despair as she saw Yeowun falling off the cliff .
‘Ahh…’
Although the fire burning his entire body, Yeowun’s head was filled with Mun Ku’s crying face that made his heart tight . With his body falling, the wind put out the fire that was on his body .
[Activating self-healing mode to heal burns from the explosion . ]
Even when he was dropping, Nano began healing the burns that were all over his body . His skin melted down into the muscles, but it quickly began to heal . The pain subsided quickly, but Yeowun was still dropping at an enormous speed .
‘Is it that deep?’
[Falling speed increasing . Danger . Danger . ]
Nano’s voice rang out, warning him of the situation . Yeowun had augmented reality on his eyes, so he saw Nano shooting red lights that showed numbers which seemed to be the speed of Yeowun’s fall . Yeowun had once jumped off from a high mountain, but that wasn’t long fall like this . As Yeowun kept falling through the dark depth, Yeowun was struck with the fear of death .
‘Am I going to die here?’
Surely anyone would be facing death in such a situation . Pain, darkness, end, and nothingness . With all that coming into one’s emotions, it was bound to put one into the depth of despair .
[User’s heart rate increasing rapidly . ]
Nano’s voice warned of the danger but Yeowun couldn’t focus . This speed of this drop would shatter Yeowun’s body into pieces the moment he dropped, which would render Nano’s healing ability to be useless .
‘Do I have to accept my death?’
Yeowun was about to accept it as his fate . That’s when a sudden gush of wind swirled around, pushing Yeowun to the side .
“Ugh!”
Yeowun was shocked by sudden wind changing his coarse . His body then struck against the wall of the huge rock . But that wasn’t the end . With the strong gush of wind, Yeowun’s body was then thrown off to another side .
“Argh!”
Yeowun then came back to his senses from the pain . He almost succumbed to the fear of death, but he was able to get out of it .
‘I can’t die like this!’
There was something more fearful than death itself . Yeowun couldn’t finish what he had set out to do yet . And to think that he couldn’t see the woman’s face whom he had given to the first time in his life, his head instantly cleared up .
As Yeowun was flung about all over the place from the wind, he noticed something . He didn’t see it when he was in fear, but now he now saw it clearly .
‘It’s a sword . ’
It wasn’t like above under the word ‘Sword,’ but there were a lot of swords stuck in the wall .
“Ah!”
Yeowun then came up with an idea and reached to back of his waist .
‘It’s there!’
The White Dragon Blade still hung by his waist . He wasn’t sure what the scabbard’s strap was made of, but it withstood the fire and was still hanging on Yeowun’s waist . Yeowun then pulled out the White Dragon Blade . He then gripped the blade and took a deep breath .
‘If I’m going to die, I’ll at least die trying to survive!’
The strong gush of wind still threw him all over the place as he dropped . When he then was thrown to the other side of the wall, he made a move .
“Hah!”
Yeowun used all his might to strike down with White Dragon Blade against the wall . Whether it was the sharpness of the blade or the speed of the fall, but the blade began slicing through the wall as it stuck there .
“Aaaaargh!”
The impact broke Yeowun’s right shoulder bone and ribs . Even if Yeowun’s muscles were enhanced beyond the limit of a normal human, it didn’t apply to his bones . Yeowun was trying to fight the gravity pulling him down, so his bone paid the price .
“Stop! Please!!”
And after falling straight through for about 15 meters, his dropping speed began to slow down and the blade soon came to a stop .
“I . . it worked!”
It was very close . Yeowun almost died by dropping, but he had survived . He then glimpsed down and saw that the ground wasn’t very deep down from here .
“Ugh!”
[Detected disjointed shoulder and a bone fracture . 3rd right rib bone is broken . Initiating self-healing mode . ]
Nano began to activate to heal broken bones, and the pain began to subside . Yeowun looked down and saw that he could easily jump down from the height he was currently at if he used the stepping skill . When the pain went away, Yeowun pulled out the blade and dropped safely .
As he got on the ground, he slumped down and sighed in relief . Everything was dark, but he was still alive . Yeowun then realized martial arts wasn’t everything . He was very powerful now, but he learned that there were situations that could still kill him .
After resting for a bit, Yeowun got up . He now survived, so he had to find a way to go up the cliff .
‘Nano, activate night vision mode . ’
[Activating night vision mode . ]
Nano’s voice rang and Yeowun’s eyes turned to see the area clearly .
‘Ah . . ’
