Return of the Blossoming Blade Chapter 1098

Episode 1098 Volcanization of the entire central plain? (3)

Knock. Knock. Knock. Knock.

The sound of regular banging on the wooden table and chanting of Buddhist scriptures filled the small room.

Every time I knocked on the wooden table, the lamp that was lighting the room shook very slightly.

It is a sublime sight. The face of the old monk, who was banging on the wooden table and reciting Buddhist sutras, exuded solemnity, serenity, and the unique elegance of Buddhism.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

But at some point, the regular sound of the moktak began to shake. Accordingly, the gently burning lamp also flickered.

It was at that moment that the sound of Buddhist scriptures flowing from the old monk’s mouth stopped. The old monk opened his closed eyes and quietly looked down at the wooden table in his hand.

‘I’ve been knocking all my life.’

It’s been over 70 years since I held this wooden table in my hands. Now I can play without wavering even if I close my eyes or cover my ears.

But at this moment, the wooden table in his hand did not make a proper sound.

‘It’s a mirror of the mind…’

The old monk Beopjeong, who was looking down at the wooden table with somber eyes, slowly put it down. No matter how much you carve it into your body and learn it, if your mind wavers, it is all useless.

In the end, it all depends on where your heart goes.

The court knew that fact all too well. This was the Buddhist teaching that he had been trying to understand his whole life.

But….

‘Everything is in the scriptures.’

The ancestors had already shown him the way. However, the reason why those who follow cannot easily attain the Buddhadharma is because it is not something that can be done just because one knows it.

“…Amitabha Buddha.”

A small sound of displeasure escapes from his mouth.

How much longer do you have to search and search before you can truly become a Buddha? Is it really possible to reach that level while wearing the mask of this sinful and greedy body?

“…that is also an obsession.”

This is ridiculous.

Obsession is the source of agony. To truly master the Dharma, one must abandon all attachments. But if you look at it closely, isn’t the desire to gain Buddhahood and reach the state of Buddha also a kind of obsession?

Those who want to gain it cannot attain it, and only those who have deviated from it can attain it. This is the path of Buddhism. How can it be a path that people can follow?

‘It is vain.’

The court slowly shook its head.

Know. That he is already in the wrong body to become a Buddha.

‘Rather than becoming a Buddha alone, I will make everyone in the world a Buddha. Even if this one body of mine falls into hell.’

In order to do so, everyone in the world must understand the sublimity of Buddhism. We must realize that the only way to truly escape this arduous life is to accept and pursue Dharma.

But unfortunately, those who have a hard time just living each day do not even pay attention to the noble teachings of Buddhism. Therefore, in order to lead them to the Pure Land, dignity, not teachings, is needed.

A dazzling majesty that shines so brightly that no one can take their eyes off it. A majesty that will make you want to walk down that path yourself.

Compared to that, even the name Shaolin is small. Everything he does is ultimately to spread the teachings of Buddha in the central plains and lead more people to the Pure Land.

The teachings of Buddha are not necessary to exalt the name of Shaolin. Shaolin’s reputation is needed to spread the teachings of Buddha.

Isn’t everything just for the sake of suffering sentient beings?

‘But how can the road be so difficult?’

The court’s eyes were tightly shut.

The world is too confusing to spread the teachings of Buddha. And his strength is too weak to overcome that confusion.

‘No one shows me the way. No one…’

The court stretched out its wrinkled hand and grabbed the wooden table again. The path of a practitioner is to not stop walking even if one is shaken and shaken again.

But that was then.

“Are you in the room?”

The voice of the legal world was heard outside the door.

The court gently put down the wooden table in its hands and sighed deeply. The life he chose is one in which he is not even given enough time to control his own mind.

“Come in.”

“Yes, boss.”

The door was opened carefully and the lawmaker came inside.

The court looked at him and frowned unconsciously. Looking at Dharma’s extremely haggard complexion, I felt like I knew what kind of appearance he was in right now.

“Bangjang.”

The legal world cautiously sat in front of the court. His eyes were constantly scanning the court’s complexion.

“News from Hangzhou has arrived.”

The court closed its eyes in silence.

This is news he was also curious about. But I felt like I already knew the outcome. The courtier’s expression already said it all.

“What happened?”

“…Hangzhou suffered damage that was close to annihilation, but… it is said that the evil group of demonic cults that invaded Hangzhou were unable to cause any more trouble and left the central plains.”

Up to this point, the court had expected it too.

“To Hangzhou… What happened to the swordsmen of the Huashan Sect who headed to Hangzhou with the Sapa group?”

“That is…”

Beopgye cautiously opened his mouth while observing the court’s eyes, which were closed.

“It is said that two days ago… they returned to the place where the volcano resides without any casualties.”

The court was suddenly engulfed in an indescribable passion. Numerous emotions were swirling inside.

The silence became longer and the lawmaker sitting in front of him could not even take a deep breath. I just kept my mouth shut and waited endlessly for the court’s response.

Eventually, the court slowly opened its eyes and asked.

“Two days ago…?”

“….”

“Did you say it was two days ago?”

“Bar manager.”

Beopgye shrugged his shoulders without knowing at the frost-like energy flowing from his eyes. In the past, the court never showed such coldness, no matter how hurtful the words were.

But not these days. Unlike in the past, he sometimes showed such a cold spirit that even the legal world was afraid.

However, the current mood in the court was different from before.

“If they had returned two days ago, the government would have naturally figured out their whereabouts.”

“….”

“Nevertheless, how should I interpret that the news has only now been delivered to you?”

“That’s… that’s me too…”

The court’s eyes twitched faintly as he trailed off and only looked at his eyes.

“Either one…”

His hand, which had been lightly holding the wooden table, strongly grasped the hem of the robe on his thigh. Bright blue tendons sprouted on the back of my hand.

“Nothing is working properly! Which one!”

“Director….”

“Yes.”

The court pursed its lips and looked at the court as if glaring.

“Please continue.”

“….”

“Even if you tell me to keep going!”

“Yes yes! “Bangjang!”

Beopgye flinched, lowered his head, and continued speaking quickly.

“According to the news from Gaegyeong, it is said that the person who appeared in Hangzhou was the Bishop of the Demonic Cult and the Demonicists who followed him. The disciples of Hwasan headed to Gangnam, together with the Maninbang Black Demon and Nokrim, slaughtered the demonic cultists…” After

speaking about the group of Sapae-ryeon, Beop-gye instinctively looked at the court’s notice once again and continued.

“And it is said that Jang Il-so of the defeated army and Cheongmyeong of the Hwasan Sword Association struck the bishop’s head with a joint attack.”

“….”

“The remaining demonic cultists tried to follow his movements in the capital city, but the religious cultists who followed behind him reported that the trail was cut off without a word and their whereabouts are unknown.”

Beopgye swallowed dry saliva and let out a burning voice.

“It’s more than this.”

The faces of the court were cool, as if the harsh north wind had blown through them. Beopgye, who saw that face, closed her eyes tightly without realizing it.

‘How…’

I spent my whole life with the court.

To a large extent, it is his funeral, but to a small extent, it is his execution. He spent his entire life admiring and respecting the noble character of the court.

But why has the court kept showing things he doesn’t know lately? Why has the court’s heart for Shaolin and all the people of the world not changed?

“The defeated army… and the Hwasan Sword Association hit the bishop’s head?”

“In the open….”

“So.”

The court cut off the legal profession and scolded them in a cold voice.

“People who were anxious to kill each other joined hands and fought together to defeat the enemy?”

“….”

“And after defeating the demonic cultists, the defeated army obediently sent away the swordsmen of Hwasan who were isolated in Gangnam?”

The legal world couldn’t even answer and just nodded.

It was something I couldn’t easily believe, but there was no other way. At least in Gangnam, their eyes don’t exist. Therefore, we have no choice but to rely on the information provided by openness.

“Huh… heh heh.”

The court burst into empty laughter.

“You looked at my volcano wrong.”

“…the room manager?”

Before he knew it, his face was horribly distorted.

“Even though they had different opinions, I believed that they were at least people trying to follow the right path. That’s why I had a little pity inside!”

“….”

“If they collude with that wicked group of Sa Sects for a purpose, how are they any different from the Sa Sect!”

“House manager… the situation…”

“Situation?”

The court glared at the court with angry eyes.

“What kind of situation are you talking about?”

“….”

“Were they the only ones who were heartbroken by the news of the civilians dying there? “I was so upset that I couldn’t sleep at night!”

bang!

The court’s fist hit Datak.

“But was that really the right thing to do? “Is taking the wrong path to achieve the desired result really the path chosen by those who stand for righteousness?”

The legal world bowed its head. The court blushed and continued.

“I don’t mean to fault their altruism either! But is it because you really don’t know that this will ultimately strengthen the SPA’s control over Gangnam?”

“That…”

The court clenched its fists.

“Those fools made Jang Il-so a hero. Now, Jang Il-so will become a hero who saved Gangnam from the clutches of the Demon Cult and further solidify the rule of the Sapae-ryeon. “Then how come you don’t know that more people will only suffer longer?”

The legal community looked at the courtroom without an answer. He looked like a person who was at a loss for words.

“It’s all wrong! It’s all wrong! Hangzhou? Of course I feel sorry for those who died in Hangzhou. But what did those who ran to Gangnam achieve? “Did you save the people of Hangzhou?”

“I couldn’t do that….”

“When a crisis of that magnitude occurs, people have no choice but to flee. Naturally, the damage would have been extremely reduced, and in the end, the vicious elements of the evil faction would have had to fight to stop the demonic religion’s southward advance. With just a little patience, it was possible for the two evils, the Demonic Cult and Safara, to meet each other! Why did you jump into that situation hastily and throw the civilians of Gangnam into disaster!”

“….”

“Stupid! “Foolish and foolish!”

The court broke it down.

“Those who cannot see the depths will praise them and criticize us! also! “They don’t even know what they did!”

“Bar Bang….”

“This!”

Kwaaaaang!

In the end, the court slammed its fist and the datak in front of it shattered.

The startled court looked blankly at the courtroom with its mouth open.

“Volcano… this can’t be tolerated…”

A bright blue murderous spirit was flowing from the court’s eyes.
