episode_0238

After lunch with Cheong Hee-yeon, Namgung-hwa, and Gak Hwi-jun, we returned to Munwoljeong after having enough fun and met Hongryeon and Chaejin, who had finished their training.

Great. I headed to the apprentice’s room with them.

He wondered if he was planning on drinking today as well, and I explained what happened today.

Because the issue was an issue, everyone was silent.

“Everyone knows that for those who have reached the level, the final step is climbing the mountain.”

What is essential for reaching the summit is to cut off attachments to the world and completely let go of the five desires and seven emotions.

That was the essential condition for getting to the line.

There was a person in the past.

A person who was abandoned by everything in the world and became the totality of hatred.

Therefore, he wanted to swallow up all the evil in the world and become evil himself.

A person who hated the world that much.

However, one human cannot face the world alone.

This can only be achieved by those who have attained Zen.

If you want to destroy the world according to your own will, you cannot obtain the power of goodness. To obtain the power of goodness, you had to give up the five desires and seven passions and give up their hatred.

And he.

The one who hated everyone in the world.

Instead of maintaining the five desires and seven emotions and gaining the power of goodness to ascend to the good, he destroyed the world until other immortals intervened in the world.

“That is Cheonma. And, what that Heavenly Demon left behind is the Heavenly Demon Divine Art.”

“Well… Isn’t that something everyone who is interested in the martial arts history knows?”

When Chae-ryeon tilts her head, everyone agrees.

okay. This was so famous that even Sayoon knew about it, so there was no need to explain it in detail.

The Heavenly Demon God Gong is the power of hatred, the power of destruction.

That it is the power of an evil spirit who wants to erase everything in the world.

“Everyone knows that since Cheonma, no one has mastered the Cheonma Mystic Art.”

The Heavenly Demon Divine Art was not passed down to the Demonic Cult.

No, it was left over, but it was only half of it, missing the most important thing.

Heavenly Demon God Gong is the power of God.

If a person holds it in his hand, he will not be able to handle its power and will explode and die.

“It is said that many talented people from the Demonic Cult have attempted the Heavenly Demon Divine Art.”

About 200 years ago, it was known that Wi Ji-hyeok, a rare genius who unified the Demonic Cult and became its leader, was challenging the Heavenly Demon God.

Declaring that he would acquire the power of the Heavenly Demon and create a world of magic, he proudly came out to the central field and performed the Heavenly Demon’s divine art.

And, the Murim Alliance, the Four Heukryeons, and the imperial family, who came out to prevent it, could not help but be astonished.

Wi Ji-hyeok, who was confidently facing them, exploded the moment he used the Heavenly Demon Divine Art.

Everyone was shocked at the scene where only a handful of blood and a handful of flesh remained, and it became known through later research.

The power of God is just the power of God.

It’s not something humans can handle.

Even the genius Wi Ji-hyeok, who could use all of his magic skills perfectly, burst into flames and died because he could not handle it.

So then, how was the Heavenly Demon able to stably use the divine power of the Heavenly Demon God?

This is probably because the Heavenly Demon is special.

Therefore, all the families and demons of the Demonic Cult were speaking openly.

If you can learn magic and complete the Heavenly Demon Divine Art, the Demonic Cult will immediately recognize you as a Heavenly Demon.

So, if you are a demon, challenge the Heavenly Demon God.

Numerous demons took on the challenge, and countless blood clots were created.

And in the end, the Demonic Cult gave up on the Heavenly Demon Divine Art.

But about a hundred years ago.

A Bidong was discovered in the realm of Demonicism, and a great deal of information was revealed through its records.

What remains in the Demonic Cult now is only half of the Heavenly Demon Divine Art.

The only way to obtain the power of God is to abandon the five desires and seven passions and completely separate from human affairs.

However, because of that, ordinary humans can never accept the power of the Heavenly Demon Divine Art, and if they try to accept and use it even once, their bodies will be destroyed and their souls will be destroyed.

However, it does not mean that there is no way.

The other half of the divine skill is how to control the power of God while maintaining the five desires and seven emotions, while maintaining humanity, so it was a record of the Heavenly Demon that you should look for somewhere.

Of course, the Demonic Cult could not help but cheer.

If you obtain half of the Heavenly Demon God’s Skills, you will be able to create a world of magic.

Humans are gaining the power of gods, and unless they want to burn the world with hatred like the Heavenly Demons of the past, immortals would not be able to intervene.

but.

Nothing has been found since.

” Gaegong, Haomun, and Dongchang risked their lives to find out that information, and countless people investigated and studied to find the other half of the Heavenly Demon Divine Art. In order to find the remaining half of the Heavenly Demon’s magic left by the Heavenly Demon.”

I held up the design.

“And this is one of those traces.”

Everyone who was concentrating on what I said tilted their heads.

“…Wait a minute.”

And then, as if he finally understood what I meant, the apprentice asked me in a firm tone.

“No. wait for a sec. son-in-law. Where on earth did you get that information?”

“You can find it by looking for research books in the imperial palace.”

“The imperial palace’s research book… How did you obtain it?”

“Hongryeon. As you know, I have land and buildings in other cities besides Seomhwaseong. Also, I invest here and there and buy land. At the same time, I purchased the manor of a long-dead official, and acquired it while the manor was being demolished.”

Actually, I didn’t know I would get it like that.

Chohwanseong, a city about a month down the road from Seomhwaseong, bought several manors as an investment, and the workers sent them to him, saying they had discovered them while demolishing the manors.

“The owner of that manor was an excellent researcher. I did a lot of research on this and that. There were many other fun things besides that.”

“Is that… still available?”

From the political faction’s point of view, it was absolutely necessary to prevent anyone from learning the Heavenly Demon Divine Technique.

Hongryeon asked, thinking that we should find it first and completely destroy it, but I shook my head.

“No.”

“Uh, can’t it be because of me…?! Sorry, sorry! Because of me…”

Sayoon, who was there when my office was destroyed last time, looked blue and tearful, and I shook my head.

It wasn’t Sayun, the Iron Blood Emperor’s subordinate, who attacked and destroyed my bookshelf with a sword, and I remember the entire contents of the book, so it doesn’t matter.

“Well, that book will remain in the imperial palace. If I want to see it, I will ask the imperial family. I don’t know if it was before, but now I’m also a manager. Whatever you do, let’s get help from the Murim Alliance.”

I handed the design to the sword saint. She tilted her head as she listened to my story with interest.

“Would you like to tear this up with a knife?”

“Hmm…”

Geomseong raised his finger. The energy on her fingers lightly traced the paper and her eyes widened.

“This… is fascinating.”

Even Kang-gi couldn’t cut out the paper with the design on it. I continued speaking, tapping the paper that left no trace.

“This is likely because this design itself represents the power of the Heavenly Demon.”

“It would be nice to make armor with this…”

When Chae-ryeon spoke as if she was dumbfounded, I held out paper and a brush.

Chae-ryeon, who quickly drew a design on paper, grabbed the paper and applied force, and the paper was torn into pieces.

In other words, it does not contain the power of the Heavenly Demon Divine Art.

“Wow… you can’t do it even with strength?”

Because it’s an event item. Even Heavenly Moon also had this setting in place to prevent it from being destroyed.

I put the design on the table.

“Then I guess I should protect this.”

Sayoon said seriously.

If someone who has mastered the Heavenly Demon Divine Art appears, it is truly the beginning of chaos.

Sayoon was worried about how many people would die because of this.

“Then what should I do with this?”

“I heard that Namgung-hwa, Gak Hwi-jun, Yo Hee-mi, and Ma Cheol-pi were the ones who got this. However, the fact that nothing special happened until they reached Cheongho probably means that the demons are not yet aware of its existence.”

“Then we should seal it.”

The apprentice spoke indifferently, but there was seriousness in his voice.

“Honestly, I’m curious. Even though you have gained the power of goodness, you do not return to goodness and remain in the secular world. It might not be as appealing to superhumans like us, but…”

But you never know what might happen in the process. As such, the apprentice may want to hide it.

“This is a wise decision.”

Even in the Heavenly Moon, many people died or were injured during the event to obtain the remainder of the Heavenly Demon Divine Power.

However, even if you obtained half of the Heavenly Demon’s Magic, it did not mean that you could use the Heavenly Demon’s Magic. Anyway, the other half was kept secretly by the Demonic Cult.

Of course, I don’t know, and I don’t know about events that will be added later, but anyway, as far as I know, there was no way to use the Heavenly Demon’s Magic.

And the rewards you get during this event itself were pretty good, but that’s just the story of the game.

As this place became my reality, I had no intention of taking unnecessary risks.

“I guess you shouldn’t tell the Murim Alliance either.”

“That’s right. Because it’s impossible to say that there are no agents of the Demonic Cult in the Murim Alliance.”

Chaejin grinned while fiddling with the paper.

“So, if you can cut this, you are saying that you can surpass the Heavenly Demon Godkung?”

“Uh. Well?”

I don’t know about that either.

My story is over. It will be up to the sword master and apprentice to decide how to dispose of this.

I went out of the room and sat in the large garden with a piece of tobacco in my mouth.

“Uncle.”

Sayun walked over and sat down next to me. I quickly tried to blow out the cigarette but she just smiled.

“That is also the scent of the man.”

“After. Still, you shouldn’t do this.”

“Ahahaha~!”

Sayoon smiles playfully and says this. It was nice to see that, so I smiled and Sayoon brought her legs together and hugged me. Sayoon, who was squatting on a long chair with her legs together and looking blankly at the sky, spoke in a low tone.

“You know so much.”

“Because there is a lot in the book. Study hard. Listen carefully to what Master says.”

“Ahaha. No matter how much I study, I don’t think I’ll be as good as you?”

“Well, you can learn it if you do it. Whatever you do, I’ll teach you later.”

I put out the cigarette and looked at the sky with Sayun.

“But over there. mister. With the teacher, the ambassador, and Chaejin. Are you getting married…?”

“Yes.”

“Wow… really congratulations!”

I nodded to her smiling brightly. As I was talking to her, I heard a voice from behind.

“Can you come in for a moment?”

Looks like the conclusion has been reached. I saw Chae-ryun coming out and left Sayun in her care and went inside.

The atmosphere in the room is quite serious.

“What did you decide to do?”

“We decided to seal it at Hongseongmun Gate.”

The swordsman spoke seriously and the apprentice frowned.

“Tsk. It would be better to have what I have.”

It’s nothing else, it’s the other half of the Heavenly Demon’s Demonic Art.

In the Demonic Cult, they say they will keep what they have to obtain at all costs.

There would be honor, but the risk would also be considerable, and the swordsman and apprentice were saying that they would take it on their own.

“It won’t be an easy decision.”

“But this is a political faction. And…”

Geomsung looked at me while scratching his cheek.

“If she were to be the wife of Seonja Shinsan, she would of course have to do this much. If you avoid it because it’s dangerous, if you turn away because you’re afraid… how can I look at you correctly?”

“Ugh. That young thing’s stubbornness is no joke. anyway. So, son-in-law.”

“Yes.”

“It was decided to establish a Munwoljeong branch in Hwaseong Island. And the branch manager…”

He looked at Chaejin.

“That guy will do.”

Those words were no different from allowing Chaejin, who had many people who wanted to become a superman and stay at Munwoljeong, to continue to stay in my guesthouse.

With this, there are three superhumans on Hwaseong Island!

Seongju would really like it.

That alone will greatly reduce the security issues that will arise from the promotion to castle status.
