KEEP BUANA (Rise of Darkness)

Mysterious Swordsman and Little Child

Gentayu finally left the village gate 7 Curtain. A small village that was the camouflage of the Red Dragon Sect. The valley was named Valley of the Seven Curups, already including the territory of the Kingdom of Lambah Barapi, but not too far from the border region with Lamahtang. The Great Golden Island was indeed only controlled by the three great empires at the moment. The Kingdom of Lamahtang controlled the south and east sides, the Barapi Lambah controlled the central and western sides, while the North to the tip of the island was fully controlled by the Kingdom of Baharus.

According to the count of the normal world, Gentayu only spent a month with the Red Dragon Sect. Being a teacher for disciples and sect members other than elders, also became a sect disciple for learning the science and ins and outs of spirits. But in reality, a month for the Red Dragon Sect along with Gentayu was worth more than two years. All thanks to the presence of Buana Stone or Silver Moon Stone with the world edge of the lake.

One of Gentayu's great achievements for a month in the sect was successfully placing Ryu in one of the spoils weapons of the Ghost Centipede to temporarily replace the sword of Satam that was seized by the Devil's Coral. The twin swords now possessed a power equivalent to a high level heirloom.

After walking quite casually all day because it had been a long time since the last time he enjoyed his quiet life, Gentayu finally arrived at a small village. At first glance, this village looks ordinary. But when Gentayu entered it, his well-trained senses caught something strange with this Village. In addition to the very few inhabitants, it seems, the number of houses standing in this village is more than the number of humans.

Gentayu wanted to ignore the awkward atmosphere and intended to leave immediately. After all, he was still very preoccupied with affairs with the black flow group. Although not in a hurry, but clearly Gentayu does not want to add to the business that will take up his time and energy. He thought that finding lodging before sunset was the right choice at this time to rest. Unfortunately, Gentayu's wish seems to be difficult to materialize at this time. At least, not after a strapping man with a wide caping hat blocked his journey.

“Sorry, Child. Im sorry. I know the kids are in a hurry. But, can I ask you to please let the kids go take this kid?” The man who suddenly confronted him gave up a little boy in his five years without waiting for Gentayu's approval.

Many times with anxious faces the man looked back. It was like a ghost was chasing him.

“Sorry sir, what is going on?” Gentayu asked why the mysterious man had brought the boy.

“Go!” The man called out to Gentayu. Not answering, but wielding a weapon that had been slung just like that on his back.

The weapon is in the form of a spear with one end in the form of a sword and the other side is shaped like an ordinary spear with shiny silver eyes. The man immediately turned his back to Gentayu and the boy he had been entrusted to take him away from the place. His attitude became very alert.

Gentayu himself could not be sure whether to obey the man or remain in that place. Gentayu was completely unable to read and measure the level of strength of this mysterious man. There were only two possible explanations, this man was stronger than him and deliberately hid his strength or otherwise was completely weak so that his strength did not radiate from his body.

Whatever it is, Gentayu chose to take the boy away from the place. No need to go too far, because it is seen that the situation of this man will be troubled to face his opponent. Helping this person doesn't seem bad because he believes that the man is not a dangerous figure. At least not from black.

The man clasped his spear rod tightly. Look for a moment at Gentayu before jumping and throwing his spear towards the sungkai tree not too far from its position. Gentayu who witnessed the action of the man was surprised when he saw blood spurting from the tree as the sword-shaped spear eyes hit the ground in the shadow of the tree. Realize Gentayu, that the person is not an arbitrary swordsman and certainly stronger than him.

From the shadow of the tree that spurted blood, appeared a black-robed figure that was now holding his chest that had been pierced by the spear of the mysterious man. The spear looked violently uprooted and darted back at its owner as if it had a mind of its own. The black-robed figure grinned, showing his teeth and mouth that had been filled with fresh blood then immediately spat out.

The black-robed figure puffed out his chest and swept his right hand against his wound. It's magical! The hole wound on his chest as a result of being pierced by the spear immediately closed as if it had never been injured. There was only a wet remnant of blood marks whose color seemed to fuse with the black color of his robe.

The wide-clothed man did not wait any longer before throwing his spear into the air and his hands formed a certain formation, then in a speed that was difficult to follow his eyes had moved to the back of the black-robed figure.

Unfortunately those punches and kicks were not enough to cripple the cloaked figure. But it does seem like it was just the opening attack from the man in the caping hat. Before the body of the cloaked figure touched the ground, the wide-clothed man's spear had preceded it through his opponent's neck.

Blood spurted and poured down the earth. The head of the owner almost broke off leaving a vein on the left and a little layer of neck skin that still holds the head together with the body. The body collapsed to the ground and no longer moved.

Unfortunately, it only lasted no more than five seconds. The body that should have lost its life was reawakened even with the head that was no longer in place! The figure again puffed his chest and swept his hands on the rest of the skin and neck veins that still hung his head so as not to roll.

Again –again, the impossible and senseless thing happened!

The blood that had been drenched on the ground seemed to be sucked back into the body of the black-robed figure through the neck slash wound, whereas the wound itself immediately recovered like before as if it had never nearly broken off!

‘Roggy Swamp!’ gentayu muttered who watched the figure of the black robe twice recover from the wound that was supposed to have killed him.

He recognized this science because in the Red Dragon Sect, Matriarch Lim told him that her parents were killed at the hands of the owner of this science. The science of the rome swamp is a science that makes the owner will not die even though beheaded though as long as there is still a drop of blood stuck to the earth.

“Hahaha... Have you never heard of me??I won't be able to die! You better leave that kid to me! Maybe I'll forgive you even I can give you a respectable position if you're willing to join us!” The black robe felt above the wind as it looked at the big-clothed man seemed to start getting annoyed.

The big-clothed man did not reply, he did a circular foot-sweeping motion on the ground before stomping his feet hard enough.

‘Dugh!’

The ground around the place suddenly shook violently afterwards. Then suddenly a huge crack appeared and swallowed the black-robed figure into it before closing back up. But, from the cupped ground that engulfed the Black Cloak, an explosion was created scattering the soil material into the air along with the figure of the black robe with it.

‘it'll be very difficult to kill this guy. But that doesn't mean this guy won't die!’ from where he stood watching the fight, Gentayu twisted his brain and suddenly he got an idea.

Gentayu immediately jumped towards the black-robed man as the figure was about to counterattack him. However, so far the black robe has not retaliated even though the attack of the blade is big.

The black-robed figure, retreated two steps as Gentayu suddenly blocked him with an air kick aimed at his face.
