[One thing is done]
“Clark. Babies. “It’s been a while.”
The confident smile of the man caught red-handed and the look in his eyes that sees the world at his feet.
The moment I saw him, I felt like I had gone back 100 years.
“Cheonmugeuk….”
Daowang and Shinchang grabbed their weapons without realizing it.
Cheon Mu-geuk saw that and laughed.
“Cluck. “The little ones that followed Geomhwang have grown up a lot.”
“Shut up!”
“Do you still think it was 100 years ago!”
The momentum emitted by the two absolute masters stimulated Cheonmugeuk. The corners of Cheon Mu-geuk’s mouth turned up with a smirk.
“Kkeukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk?”
I remembered the days 100 years ago when I was fighting with the Emperor of Swords for supremacy over the world. Cheon Mugeuk, the leader of the Cheonma cult at the time, was a man who knew no mercy.
But not now. Cheon Mu-geuk chuckled and then calmed down.
“Cluck. Let’s stop. “I’m so happy to see your faces after such a long time.”
Sword Saint also came forward and stopped the two excited younger brothers.
“You too, stop. “Didn’t I tell you that the author taught martial arts to Pacheon Geomje?”
“But large…”
“How can you trust that author!”
Daowang and Xinchang still remained on guard.
More than 100 years ago, they were almost killed several times by Cheon Mugeuk, the then Cheonma. Finding out that he was alive and meeting him face to face were two completely different problems.
The Sword Saint was equally surprised by the appearance of Cheonmugeuk.
However, he treated Cheon Mu-geuk more resolutely than his younger brothers.
“It’s been a while. “I seem to have become stronger than in the past.”
“Cluck. “It’s the child of the Moyong family.”
“Aren’t I too old to be called a kid?”
“joy. That’s right, once you’re a kid, you’re always a kid.”
“You still have the same personality.”
“Cluck. “You’re still so arrogant.”
The two men glared at each other for a moment and then laughed.
It’s been 100 years. It was a strange feeling just to meet someone who was with me during those times. The conversation was also very pleasant.
“Cluck. I’ll solve the problem later. “First of all, we have to solve our family problems.”
Cheon Mu-geuk turned around. The monster that had been pinned to the ground was staggering and getting up.
Wow!
Geomseong asked from behind Cheonmugeuk’s back.
“Do you need help?”
“Cluck. “You hear all sorts of things from the political faction brat.”
“I thought you would answer that way.”
Geomseong retreated with his sworn brothers. Even if I intervened again later, I first planned to check on King Tao’s injury.
The monster swung its huge arm towards the world-famous three-year-old who was trying to retreat.
Huuuuung-!
However, the arm could not be fully extended. As if the space was splitting apart, the Heavenly Demon’s arm was cut off diagonally.
Wow!
The monster screamed in pain. Magical energy spurted out like a fountain of blood from the cut area.
“Infinite. “Do you want to stop now?”
Cheonmugeuk looked at the monster with pitiful eyes. In his hand was a purple sword.
Heavenly Demon Sword (天魔劍)
A sacred item of the Heavenly Demon Church that is said to have been brought from paradise by the Heavenly Demon Master 500 years ago.
It is said that the Cheonma Josa disappeared after a fable, but in fact, it was an item left behind in Josa-dong along with 『Cheonma Records』.
Crrrrrrr….
The evil light flowing from the monster’s eyes shook uneasily. It was as if he was afraid of the Heavenly Demon Sword.
Cheonmugeuk spoke to his grandson who had been eaten by the spirit demon.
“I know that now that I’m talking about you as my grandfather, it will sound mean.”
As Cheonmugeuk took a step closer, the monster hesitated and took a step back.
“However, the path you are taking now is also the path I was planning to take.”
Cheonmugeuk raised the Cheonmagum and aimed it at the monster. The monster inflated its body and roared.
Kyaaaaa!
“…All that lies at the end of the road is destruction. “Knowing that, I cannot leave you like this.”
The monster began to emit enormous magical energy. I squeezed all the strength out of my whole body, as if I was struggling to survive.
At that moment, Cheon Mu-geuk’s eyes shone coldly.
“So, even if it hurts a little, just endure it.”
Slurp.
Cheonmugeuk began to use the Cheonma Sword Technique. Like a butterfly flapping its wings, the purple sword drew a flowing line in the air.
Wow! Wow!
The lines began to cut into the monster’s body.
As if peeling off the skin of an onion layer by layer, the body of the monster surrounded by demonic energy became smaller and smaller.
Wow! Wow!
The monster roared and swung its arms and legs wildly.
But it was no use. Like a butterfly caught in a spider’s web, the monster was just struggling within the web created by Cheonmugeuk.
“It’s over.”
The great man who came down the canyon muttered as he looked at the sight. There was no reason to hide anymore.
The great man took out a potion and approached the world’s three most powerful men. The idea was to treat their injuries.
“……”
But Cheonha Samjeol looked like he couldn’t even feel the pain. They were mesmerized and watching the state of martial arts displayed by Cheonmugeuk.
“Hehe….”
“Who is that author….”
“…Is the gap still this big?”
The divine power shown by Cheonmugeuk was overwhelming. The great man could not help but be amazed when he saw his teacher.
“I was wondering why I couldn’t contact you for a week…”
Cheonmugeuk transformed again using the demonic power infused into him by Daein.
Two days were enough to get there.
However, as the body became younger, the realization that was previously unattainable due to the limitations of the body began to be embodied in the body in an instant.
In addition, the enlightenment gained from reading the ‘Secret Records of the Heavenly Demon’ left behind by the founder of the Heavenly Demon.
It took a week to digest it all.
“Whew…”
After finishing his sword dance, Cheon Mu-geuk took a deep breath and lowered his sword.
At that moment,
buzzing!
Burbubububbung!
Burbubububbung!
The monster’s body exploded into tens of thousands of pieces, the remains scattering like flower petals.
And in between them, the body of the unconscious Heavenly Demon Cult fell.
Tuk.
Cheonmugeuk lightly picked up the fallen Cheonma Cult leader.
His grandson had turned into an old and shabby old man like himself, who had been called Manbak Nogee not long ago.
“……”
A great man came next to Cheon Mu-geuk, who had a bitter expression on his face.
“Do not worry too much. “I will treat you well and make you healthy again.”
It was overkill to use elixirs on the cult leader, but using top-quality potions and a few herbs was enough to restore his health.
As Daein took out the potion and fed it to the cult leader, his pale complexion gradually returned.
Cheon Mu-geuk, who was a little relieved to see that, looked at Dae-in with an embarrassed face.
“You are a master in name, but you owe nothing but debt to your students.”
The great man shrugged his shoulders as if it was no big deal.
“Why have this much? But I really can’t get used to this face. “Is this what it originally looked like?”
The great man looked at his teacher’s now younger face.
There was no longer any trace of the stumpy old man who was called the Manbaknoge. A young man with a thick appearance smiled, showing his white teeth.
“Okay, you guy. “Are you surprised that your teacher is so handsome?”
“Rather than being a handsome man, he looks like Rambo…”
A muscular body with broad shoulders. His thick neck and forearms looked like he could hit an elephant with his bare hands.
“Rambo? “Is that the most handsome guy where you live?”
“Anyway, it’s good that you’ve rejuvenated yourself.”
The great man appropriately changed the subject. Fortunately, Cheonmugeuk didn’t ask for details either.
Because the condition of the grandson in my arms was not good enough to chat with my student for a long time.
Physical wounds could be treated with potions, but the mental scars left in the heart were not so easily treated.
‘Poor guy…’
Cheon Mu-geuk stroked his grandson’s pale cheek. My cheeks were very cold. Cheonmugeuk said to Daein.
“Let’s talk more later. I want to hurry up and take this child back to Heavenly Demon Church. “Are you okay?”
Cheon Mu-geuk wanted to help his grandson control his demons as soon as possible.
The great man nodded.
“Please. “Because Master’s work is finished.”
“…okay. “Thank you so much.”
Cheon Mu-geuk looked at the great man.
When I first met Daein, I couldn’t tell you how surprised I was to learn that he was the late Emperor of the Sword.
“At that time, he had a lot of strength but his swordsmanship was poor…”
“Yes? Are you suddenly talking about old times?”
“Hey. “Yes, it’s only been a few months.”
From then on, I was curious, so I followed the great man for a few days and soon decided to make him his disciple.
Half of it was because he wanted someone else to fulfill his dream of becoming the best in ancient times and gold that he could not achieve,
and half of it was because he taught Geomwang to repay his lifelong debt to him.
‘That’s right… but instead, you saved me and my grandson. And now you are trying to save the Heavenly Demon Church.’
saver.
A name I read about in the scriptures of the Heavenly Demon Church.
However, it was a being that even he himself hardly believed in.
A lie made up by the Cheonmajosa to give hope to believers living in a harsh environment.
This was written in 『Cheonmabirok』 that Cheonmugeuk saw.
-There is no such thing as a savior. We are just a tribe that lost the war and fled to another dimension…
‘You are wrong.’
Cheonmugeuk wanted to say this if he met Cheonmajosa.
‘There is a savior. I met my savior. The savior that the Heavenly Demon Church has been waiting for is right in front of me.’
Cheon Mu-geuk chuckled and said.
“I’ll be staying in Josa-dong for a while, so come visit me when I’m done with my work. “I have something for you.”
“What are you going to give me? “What is it?”
In response to Daein’s question, Cheon Mu-geuk smiled meaningfully.
“Cluck. Hey. Wouldn’t it be fun if you knew in advance? Anyway, you can look forward to it.”
Cheonmugeuk left only those words and floated into the air.
“Then I will go first.”
Whick!
The great man grumbled softly as he watched his teacher quickly disappear into a dot in the air.
“What are you not telling me about? “I’m just curious.”
***
Daein relayed the news to the leader of the Little Church via communication that Cheonmugeuk had subdued the leader of the Heavenly Demon Church and taken him away.
[…Are you seriously injured?]
[There is no danger to your life.] So
Jiyoju seemed reassured by that fact alone. He said with a sigh.
[I understand. Then, the church must now retreat.]
After a while, the troops of the Heavenly Demon Church began to retreat under the order of the leader of the Little Church.
Because the religious leader was absent, the orders of the minor religious leader (and the elder who fully supported him) were absolute.
The warriors of the Cheonghae Murim League did not chase them.
Cheongwoon and Su Jiaoju had a conversation through the communication channel.
[Please be careful.]
[See you later. At that time, be sure to bring the battle flag.]
[Uh-huh. Because I’m the older brother…]
Daein, who heard their conversation, looked bewildered.
“When did they become this close again?”
There was nothing wrong with the two becoming friends. Because they are the future Heavenly Demon Cult leaders and Murim lords.
“Then the Church of the Heavenly Demon was resolved…”
This war between the Heavenly Demons and the Holy Demon came about after the Murim Alliance and the Church of the Heavenly Demon had been pitifully attacking each other for a long time.
In other words, it did not end when one side backed down.
Daein spoke into the communicator.
“Cheongun. “Where is the Murim Alliance’s main force now?”
[…They say the lord is two days away. Considering the time when Jeon Seo-gu was received, we must be within a day’s distance now.]
The Murim Lord entrusted Daein with the Destruction Demon Corps and had him set off for the Cheonghae branch first, then gathered his troops and came up with the main force.
“How many troops?”
[They said there were a total of 30,000.]
Within a day’s distance, 30,000 warriors led by the Murim Lord were running to attack the Cheonma Shingyo.
“30,000…it’s less than I thought.”
The great man was thinking of sending them away.
[One thing is enough] The end
