Episode 196. Radiation
I am presumptuous, but, God━
Eun-ryeong raised her head again and spoke, dragging her words out.
“A force of thousands is moving rapidly from the west. They have already passed through Chongqing and reached the border of Hubei… … .”
“I heard. It must be the Jeongcheon Alliance of Sacheon.”
Ma Gwangcheonju Yeon Junghyeok nods his head. This was also expected. The news of the destruction of the Namgung family in Anhui must have spread to Sacheon. I know that there are quite a few masters of the six factions who have come to the Jeongcheon Alliance. They would not stay still even after sensing the crisis in their faction. They will somehow try to harass the young leader to come here.
“Thank you. You’ve helped me gather the scattered factions into one. You’ve saved me a lot of trouble. The child of the Tang family is truly amazing. I’ll have to wait and see if he can make it this far.”
Yeon Jung-hyeok said with a happy expression. That was understandable, because from his perspective, it felt like a hassle to thoroughly search out each and every one of the Jeong Do-mu Maeks who were hiding all over the world and continuing their tenacious lifeline. He thought it would be better to attack the enemy in one go and completely annihilate them, even if it meant losing some of his subordinates’ strength.
“Before attacking Shaolin, how about clearing them out first?”
Eun-ryeong cautiously recommended. Along with his twin brother Geum-ryeong, he has been serving as the guardian of Magwangcheonju Yeon-jung-hyeok for twenty years. Now, it is no exaggeration to call him his right-hand man, so he is one of the few people who can guess Yeon-jung-hyeok’s thoughts without him having to say anything out loud.
Now that the pact of non-interference in official duties has been made, naturally, Ma Gwang-cheon’s next move will be to destroy Shaolin. The sect of monks who wield the power of demon annihilation and handle the Buddhist qi is a great threat in itself. It needs to be destroyed before other sects. Even those who have achieved a certain level of demonic skills often have difficulty dealing with Shaolin monks. Even at a time when demonic arts were flourishing in the world, it was difficult to find demons only in Hanam, so what more could be said?
Although it was a matter of priority, attacking Shaolin first without thinking could have caused many variables. First of all, the large force of Jeongcheonmaeng – they were moving in this direction in a hurry, most likely to be to keep them in check. To prevent them from making any hasty moves.
Of course, due to the inviolability of official duties, not only the imperial family but also the Habuk Peng family have been excluded from the power of the political faction, so there is no way to restrain them with numbers. The imperial family and the Habuk Peng family have a total of four Hwagyeong masters. Compared to dealing with them, dealing with thousands of unmanned people only takes time, and is not much of a threat.
The problem with Eunryung is that when Jeongcheonmaeng hears news of Ma Gwangcheon’s attack on Shaolin, he may withdraw his forces and target the Xingang Heavenly Demon Sect.
Although it is said that the forces of the Jeongcheon Alliance are moving towards Hubei due to the influence of the six faction masters, the one who will ultimately lead them is the leader of the alliance, the Dark Sword Dragon, Dangmyeong.
That’s important━because of course, it’s the son of the Sacheondang family.
If you realize that your restraints are not working, and learn about the non-aggression pact between the imperial family and Magwangcheon, and if you think that the entire magical force, including the Mago Three Houses, is starting to run wild in all parts of the Central Plains, what will you do? Will you advance and engage in the biggest battle of your life with Magwangcheon?
‘No, I guess I’ll return.’
Eun-ryeong thought with her eyes sparkling under her mask. It is the instinct of all living beings to value their own safety. In the case of humans, it goes a little further and they value their blood relatives and close friends.
Sacheon, where the Jeongcheon Alliance and the Tang Family currently reside, is establishing itself as a new holy ground for the Jeongdo faction. It is the complete territory of the Jeongpa faction that was obtained with difficulty after destroying the seemingly impregnable Black Lotus.
‘There’s no way they’d give up a place like that so easily.’
The fact that Ma Gwang-cheon is moving in earnest means that it is not strange for the Heavenly Demon Sect in Xinjiang to move at any time. Even the young leader of Jeongcheon would have figured it out. Rather than helping Shaolin or the other six factions to fight against us, there was a high chance that they would protect their base in Sichuan or even attack Xinjiang. At this point, it would actually be much easier to fight the Heavenly Demon Sect than Ma Gwang-cheon.
The six faction’s Hwagyeong masters who were concerned about the safety of their faction would not simply follow the order, but in any case, wouldn’t the absolute majority of the Jeongpa’s warriors who make up the Jeongcheon Alliance choose to firmly protect the land of Sacheon? At least, it was reasonable to assume that the Sogaju of the Sacheon Party would make such a decision.
In other words, Eun-ryeong was worried that Jeongcheon-maeng would attack Xingang right now. She knew that Ma-Gwang-cheon-ju Yeon-jung-hyeok thought terribly of his father, Yeon-mu-yeol, the leader of the Cheonma Sect.
Of course, it was well known to the world that Yeon Jung-hyeok was deeply filial. He quickly built up his martial arts and his overwhelming qualities that were hard to believe were human, so he left the school and founded a new magic sect in the middle of the central plains, fearing that he would undermine his father’s authority. Now, some people think that it was all part of the evil plan of Yeon Mu-yeol, the leader of the magic sect, to take over the world of magic, but Eun-ryeong, who had been in charge of receiving orders since Yeon Jung-hyeok was young, knew for sure.
‘All judgments made by God are made with the leader in mind.’
He led his followers out of the Cheonmasin Church, opened the Magwangcheon sect, used marriage to prosper the magical power, and even closed the sect for several years – all of this was for the sake of the cult leader Yeon Mu-yeol, who wished to create a magical world.
It was a bit dubious to see it as simply a matter of deep filial piety, because it had already been more than ten years since Yeon Jung-hyeok had seen his father, Yeon Mu-yeol. That was when he had left Cheonmasingyo. If he was that filial, he might not have visited him often, but he should have visited him at least a few times. Sometimes, Eun-ryeong felt that Yeon Jung-hyeok did not care about the passage of ten years, as if he lived according to a different time axis.
Anyway, Eun-ryeong’s words contained concerns about the main body of the Shin Gang Cheonma Shin Gyo sect—more precisely, its leader Yeon Mu-yeol—and Yeon Jung-hyeok was not one to fail to notice her intentions.
“You don’t have to worry about the church.”
“yes.”
Eun-ryeong immediately bowed her head and answered. He didn’t feel the need to question the Heavenly King, who was like heaven to him. Such an extremely obedient attitude. It was strange even when I looked at it again. If he were with Geum-ryeong, who was his twin brother and also reached the extreme, he could live his whole life without being envious, but he just obeyed Yeon-jung-hyeok.
Is it because Magwangcheonju Yeonjunghyuk is the supreme ruler of the Central Plains magic world that he is being loyal to them?
Or is it because he is afraid of the Heavenly Demonic Art he has learned?
Yeon Jung-hyeok opened his mouth while looking down at Eun-ryeong’s head.
“They use the grand name of Jeongcheonmaeng, but they are no different from the Murimmaeng. They are not a single organization, but rather a union of various schools and martial arts. While Boncheon is engaged in a fierce battle with Shaolin, they will be confused and fall apart. Especially if the child of the Tang family orders a retreat, it is obvious that the core masters of the six factions will defect.”
As Yeon Jung-hyeok raised his index finger, saying it was as obvious as seeing the day, a black flame suddenly burst out from the tip. It was a magic fire lit by magic. It was a sight that reminded me of the Hell Magic Fire skill of Gongsun Tae, the Gwangmyeong Left Servant. If you think about it, Yeon Jung-hyeok was known to have been born with the Heavenly Martial Arts Body and mastered all kinds of magical arts, so it wouldn’t be strange if he had also mastered the Left Servant’s Hell Magic Fire skill.
Hook━ Yeon Joong-hyuk, who playfully extinguished the magic fire with a light breath, speaks again.
“There are currently three extreme demon masters in the sect. The Left Master, the Right Master, and even my father, the leader of the sect… … So even after the six sect’s Hwagyeong masters leave, Tangga’s Ahae may be worth a try. There is a demon ship in Kunlun, Gongdong is helping out, and Tangga’s leader, Du Bong Dang Zhihui… … I heard that she has also ascended to Hwagyeong. She may be able to mobilize all of her power to attack Xingang.”
“… … .”
“But the moment they set foot on the main sect, it will be difficult for them to avoid death. Even if all the masters of the six factions of Hwagyeong do not leave the Jeongcheon Alliance, it will be the same.”
Yeon Jung-hyuk spoke decisively.
As a sect, it was inevitable that questions would arise. Among the six sects’ masters of the fire-light, there were only three whose whereabouts were not properly confirmed. Assuming that they had all joined the Jeongcheon Alliance, in the worst case scenario, the main branch of the Xingang Heavenly Demon Sect would have to deal with at least seven more masters of the fire-light. Shouldn’t they be concerned about the demise of the sect…?
Or, is there some hidden secret power?━ While Eun-ryeong was swallowing her curiosity in silence, Yeon-jung-hyeok brought up a story he had never told before.
“Father… … The leader is the one and only shaman in the world.”
* * *
Bangsa (方士) – They were people who carried around a lot of yellow-tinged gohwangji and used unique magic. Gohwangji refers to paper dyed with the water of the flowers and fruits of the locust tree. It was said that if you didn’t use a talisman made of gohwangji, the magic would quickly lose its effectiveness.
The radiators were usually those who were crazy about magic. Ultimately, they wanted to use magic to overcome human limitations and achieve enlightenment.
At one time, Zhuge Se-ga’s formation was considered the best in the world, but in fact, Zhuge Se-ga’s formation was a deterioration of the formations that the shamans used. Instead of using talismans that used magic, he used objects with spirituality to imitate the shamans’ formations, which was Zhuge Se-ga’s secret and ultimate formation. The shamans’ formations were incredibly mysterious. They would put mountain ranges in a space of about three jang, and release all sorts of ghosts and monsters that only appear in folktales.
The reason their sorcery and formations were so developed was to deal with Yi Mae-mangryang. Through the process of subduing Yi Mae-mangryang, they not only improved their sorcery skills, but also eliminated the threat of worldly wealth, accumulated virtue, and eventually aimed for the throne.
It’s not a well-known story, but the people called Bangsa definitely existed, and the evil spirits they were eliminating also existed.
and.
There was once a whispered story among the radio broadcasters━
It was about those who used the magic of reversing the flow of the sky. They were not beings who destroyed the two men, but rather gave birth to them and made them their subordinates.
Rather than refining his magic, he is a being who seeks to ascend the ranks by allowing the ranks of the two evil spirits he has taken in as his subordinates to naturally increase his own rank.
It is now a forgotten name, but there was a time when the radiation of the reverse sky that was ascended in that manner was called Cheonma (天魔) and was feared.
