Chapter 206
A sword once bestowed upon the Kang family founder, Peak Sword, by a god before he was a god...
Tier-wise, Iyarugt could be classified as a divine sword. However, that mattered little to Jae-Hyeok—whether divine or ordinary, he wielded Iyarugt because it was the heritage of his Kang family, the sword once cherished by Peak Sword himself.
Even so, to have been worthy of Peak Sword, Iyarugt had to have been forged and reforged over a long period to suit him. Whenever Jae-Hyeok used Peak Sword’s techniques, Iyarugt seemed to resonate with his will, making each sword form feel as natural as breathing.
Hell Sword is no different.
In Jae-Hyeok's field of view, hundreds of phantom blades floated in the air. Some were larger than a person, while others were smaller than a palm. Some were double-edged blades; some, single-edged. Others were wavy, and still others appeared completely bizarre and misshapen.
But all of them were familiar to Jae-Hyeok.
They were the swords he’d wielded while training in his family’s techniques.
The Kang family’s martial arts pursued perfection. But was it really necessary to train to the point of harmony with every bladed weapon? This question had pestered Jae-Hyeok in childhood. But now, the answer was laid bare:
After Peak Sword, the Kang family’s martial arts were all meant to prepare the next inheritor of Iyarugt—in a manner, it could be said that the Kang family’s martial arts were designed personally for Jae-Hyeok.
Hundreds of phantom blades let out a cacophony of sword cries as, one after another, they flew into Iyarugt.
The more Iyarugt absorbed, the more tyrannical its sword energy became.
Soon, the crimson blade erupted with a blood-red, lightning-charged sword aura, so dense and powerful that it lit up the entire stadium.
