< Operation to subdue Shi-Balaam (6) - Let's begin >
As soon as he finished installing the Bongmajin and returned to headquarters, Daein locked himself in his room.
“Don’t let anyone come into my room until I call.”
“Your name!”
The warriors of the Heavenly Demon Sect took turns guarding the door in pairs. As they glared around with their eyes wide open, no one dared approach the Great Man’s room.
After confirming that the noise outside had died down, the man sat cross-legged on the floor.
“Phew… Then shall we begin?”
The man closed his eyes and gathered all the energy he had normally spread out in all directions.
And then I slowly raised my Heavenly Demon Sect.
-Kwakwakwakwakwa!
According to the instructions of the Heavenly Demonic Spirit, the purified magical energy within the body began to flow through the blood vessels and into the veins of the entire body along with the internal energy.
The only peerless divine skill in the martial arts world that uses both internal energy and magical energy to bring about a synergistic effect.
‘The goal is 8 stars or more.’
Currently, Daein’s Heavenly Demonic Skill was at the level of the beginning of the 7th level.
Thanks to learning another peerless divine art, the Heavenly Demon Art, I was able to easily reach level 7 in the Heavenly Demon Art.
However, whenever Dae-in practiced the Heavenly Demonic Art recently, he felt an ‘uncomfortable’ energy inside his body.
‘I should have noticed it a long time ago. From the moment the demon didn’t answer.’
Before coming here, the Great Man extracted the magic from the body of a newborn baby infected with the Demon King’s magic.
It was then that I realized the true nature of this ‘discomfort.’
That’s right···.
‘There are two types of magic inside my body.’
One is the
The other one is the
‘At first, it didn’t matter because the level of the Heavenly Demon God’s Work was low. However, as the level of the Heavenly Demon God’s Work increased, the two began to clash.’
First of all, the two had different subjects. Darkness belonged to the devil, and the Heavenly Demon belonged to the Heavenly Demon God.
But Daein has not separated the two until now. He just takes them out and uses them whenever necessary.
‘If you look closely, you can feel it. The two energies are forcibly mixed together···.’
When I became aware of that fact and observed the inside of my body, only then did I feel two seemingly similar yet different energies.
If you had continued to practice Cheonma Shingong without knowing this, you would eventually be visited by the devil of the mind.
The discomfort that the Great Man felt whenever he used the Cheonma Shingong recently was a warning to the mind demon.
“Phew···.”
As the great man exhaled, a black aura flowed out like smoke. It soon dispersed into the air.
“Sigh···. Phew···.”
As the man breathed in and out repeatedly, the room became increasingly filled with darkness.
It was a kind of work of extracting the poison. The impure energies that had been mixed inside the body,
But this alone was not enough.
The man called out to the devil in his heart.
[Agui. Are you there?]
[······.]
There was no answer. But the man sensed the presence of the demon.
[I know it’s there. Why aren’t you answering?]
[······.]
[Hey. Are you chewing?]
At that moment, deep within the great man’s heart, a demon answered with difficulty.
[···Don’t call.]
[If your child was listening, why don’t you call him?]
[···Bur, ji, ma.]
And the demon fell silent again. The man called out several more times, but there was no answer again.
[Hey, hey! Why on earth are you doing that···.]
At that moment, the man got one step closer to realizing the anxiety he had been feeling.
‘no way?’
Finally, the words of the demon who had fallen silent after telling her in a strained voice not to call him…
From those few facts, the man was able to draw one conclusion.
-The devil of the heart
The monster that even his master, Cheonmu-geuk, and the current leader of the Cheonmagyo cult could not avoid came to him as well.
The difference between the two people was that Simma, who came to find the great man, seemed to have targeted Agui first.
‘Or maybe the devil has turned into a demon.’
It was then. The moment the Great Man became aware of the demon, the celestial demon energy and darkness within his body began to run wild at the same time.
As if they had been waiting for this.
-Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!
The body of the great man sitting cross-legged trembled. A groan escaped from between his clenched teeth.
“Ugh···.”
The man’s face turned red and the veins on his forehead bulged due to the sudden outburst of magic.

At the same time, I remembered what Cheonmu-geuk had said before.
-Kekeke. That guy named Simma is like a killer. He quietly hides and waits for the right moment, and then just before the opponent notices, he rushes from behind and tries to cut the leash.
Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!
“Ugh···!”
The rampant magic swept around the man. The furniture in the room flew and broke, and the man trembled as if he had been hit by a wind.
Boom, bang, bang!
There was a knock at the door, followed by the voices of startled warriors.
“What’s going on?”
“···Don’t come in!”
The great man barely opened his mouth to shout. If only he had a master, the other warriors would be of no help in this situation, but rather a hindrance.
Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!
“Ugh···.”
The Great Man desperately suppressed his trembling magic energy and continued to recall the advice Cheonmu-geuk had given him.
-You idiot. Do you think you won’t get infected with the mind demon if you don’t learn the reverse blood magic? Do you think the Heavenly Demon God Art is safer than the Heavenly Demon God Art?
-The mind ultimately comes from your own heart. The reason why magic is dangerous is because it eats away at the human spirit, and it is not magic itself that calls for the mind.
Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!
“Ugh···.”
The magic swirled more and more violently. The room became a mess as if a tornado had torn through it. The man gritted his teeth and continued to recall his memories.
-Well, given your personality, I don’t think you’d be susceptible to heart attacks that easily···.
‘I’m caught, so tell me quickly!’
At that moment, the smiling face of Cheonmu-geuk came to mind. He was drinking alcohol with the elder and talking to him.
-Keep on going. Okay. I’ll tell you my special secret to overcoming your demons. In this field, Nobu is the world’s best expert. First of all…
After a while, the man lost all sense of his body.
I completely shut off my five senses and even stopped breathing.
“······.”
I didn’t try to control the rampaging magic. I just let it do whatever it wanted.
Puhwaaaaak!
In that moment, a large amount of magic energy burst out from the great man’s body. The man had a hideous devil’s face and looked down at the great man from above.
Krrrrrr···.
But after a while,
Simma wandered around the man as if something was strange, then soon seeped back into the man’s body.
‘now!’
The great man followed the spirit. He immersed himself deeply into a place he had never been before.
– Disciple. That guy named Simma. He could be a monster you can’t even imagine, or he could be a very insignificant being.
‘You’ll know what it looks like when you see it for yourself.’
After a while, the consciousness of the great man, which had fallen to the bottom of consciousness, plummeted down there.
***
The place where the great man arrived was the sea of unconsciousness.
All kinds of creatures lived in the cloudy and murky sea.
Anchovies the size of whales passed by, and a lime-colored elephant sped backward like a motorboat, its trunk turning like a propeller.
On one side, two shrimps took turns slapping the whale’s back with their tails.
[[Is this… the imaginary world that the Master spoke of?]]
The man was surprised to find that his own voice sounded strange. It sounded like the voice of a child or an old man.
From the beginning, everything here was abnormal.
[[I said that if I leave here, I won’t remember most of what happened inside.]]
The man looked around. All sorts of strange animals were swimming in the sea, and things that looked like poorly formed sentences were floating around.
[[and···.]]
After staring blankly at them for a while, the man finally remembered why he had come here.
[[I have to find Simma.]]
The man swam deeper and deeper into the sea. He flapped his arms hard to go down, and down.
The color of the sea kept changing. Red, yellow, blue, orange···.
How much time has passed like that?
Bam.
The man reached the bottom of the sea, where everything was black.
As the man carefully looked around, he saw a light in the distance.
[[Is that it?]]
The man swam towards the light. After a while, the troublemakers appeared in front of him.
[Kekekekekekekekekeke.]
[Kekekekekekekekekeke.]
[Kekekekekekekekekeke.]
With an evil laugh, beings emerged from the darkness. They all had faces that the man knew.
[Landlord!!]
[You came here on your own two feet!]
[You haven’t forgotten my face, have you?]
They had the faces of enemies he had killed and comrades he had fought alongside and died with.
[You killed me!]
[I died because of you!]
[Why did you do that? Why did you do that!]
They questioned him and accused him of crimes. They branded him a murderer and pointed their fingers at him, calling him a coward.
The man frowned as if he was annoyed.
[[So what?]]
As the Great Man stretched out his hand to the side, the Heavenly Demon Sword was summoned in his hand. The Great Man swung the Heavenly Demon Sword and defeated the ghosts.
-Pubberbubbubububung!
The ghosts burst out all at once. The man headed back towards the light in the distance.
The second ones who appeared tempted the man with their beautiful appearance and sweet tongue.
[I will make you the richest man in the world.]
[Don’t you want to hold beautiful beauties?]
[I can make you the strongest being in all dimensions of the universe···.]
The man swung his Cheonma Sword as if he didn’t care.
[[go away!]]
-Pubberbubbubung!
The second time, the demons burst out all at once, and the man walked towards the light again.
The third Simma that came was the powerful enemies that Daein had faced throughout his life.
[Hand over the child of fire!]
[Kwaaak! This cunning guy!]
Led by Red Goblin and Namgung Jeongcheon, monsters, alien races, demons, and disasters that Daein had faced in the past poured out at the same time.
The man gripped the Cheonma Sword tightly and shouted.
[[You bastards. How many times have you crawled out!]]
Pbu …
The demon spirits were all swept away, and the man continued walking.
But when the fourth demon appeared, the great man stopped walking for the first time.
[Great man.]
[How have you been?]
It was his parents who had passed away at the First Gate. They walked up to him, hugged him, and caressed his face.
[I missed you. I really missed you.]
[My son has grown up so much already.]
[Now let’s live here with mom and dad.]
[Yeah. Mom and Dad, just like before···.]
[[······.]]
The man’s expression became strangely distorted. He looked at his parents for a while with an expression that was neither smiling nor crying.
[[It’s nice to see you, but… I’m sorry.]]
The great man swung the Cheonmagyeom.
Pubbubububu!
The parents’ images quickly disappeared, and the man continued on his way.
From behind, my mother’s voice was heard faintly.
[Son. We are proud of you···.]
[[······.]]
After that, Simma transformed into all sorts of shapes and appeared before the people.
Simma tried to destroy him by stimulating his desires, emotions, and traumas.
but,
Pubbubububububu!
Pubbubububububu!
After seeing his parents, the man’s steps did not stop for a moment.
Ironically, the more enemies Simma sent to Daein, the stronger the sword Daein wielded became. The level of Heavenly Demonic Power increased at a frightening rate.
How long did it take to walk like that?
A week? A month? …or a few years?
In a time flow completely different from the outside, the man finally reached the end of the road.
There, a huge being as big as a mountain was crouching.
[[Are you a devil? Are you the last one?]]
As the man spoke, the giant being turned around and looked at him.
Kookookookookung!
That face, too, was one that the man knew.
The moment he saw the face of the giant kid, the man couldn’t help but chuckle.
“anyhow.”
*

“Hmm···.”
The man slowly opened his eyes.
As soon as he opened his eyes, what he saw were dozens of faces looking at him with worried expressions.
“Team Leader!”
“older brother!”
“Vice President!”
As soon as the Great Man woke up, everyone started talking nonchalantly. The Great Man looked around after shooing away Wang Gu-ho and the rice cake that were rushing to hug him without warning.
When he moved, he was lying on the bed.
The man scratched his head with a sleepy face and spoke.
“Hmm… why are you making a fuss over something so trivial?”
At those words, Joo Da-hye opened her eyes wide and glared at the man.
“How can this be nothing! You’ve been doing this all night…! How much of us…!”
Joo Da-hye doesn’t know how much her heart ached.
Daein was the initiator and supreme commander of this plan.
If anything happens to him, the whole operation will go down the drain.
“Please be aware of your position!”
The man nodded his head in agreement.
“But how long did I sleep? It felt like I slept for quite a while.”
“You were lying down for eight whole hours.”
“Hmm. Eight hours···.”
We arrived at headquarters late in the evening, which meant that a day had passed and morning had come.
‘It’s not too late though.’
The man asked Joo Da-hye.
“Ready for the punitive operation?”
“All preparations are complete, but···.”
Joo Dahye looked at the man with a worried expression. She thought that the battlefield would be too much for someone who had been in a coma until just now.
“I think it would be better to postpone the plan for a few days. Depending on the deputy’s condition, we can then…”
“Then let’s start as scheduled.”
“yes?”
The man got up from the bed and stretched.
His expression looked more refreshed than ever.
“I’m in great shape right now.”
