Episode 66. < Heavenly Demon. (1) >

Heavenly Demon.
It can’t go on like this.
… … Heavenly Demon. Half of the Blood Demons have been destroyed! The elders declared their departure from the martial arts world and dispersed throughout the world, but their traces were already lost. This is not the time to be fighting with idiots from political factions. This is a crisis for our school, no, it may be a crisis for the world. Beggars of openness start rumors… … .
… … Heavenly Demon. As instructed, we created Yakbang (藥M) regardless of religious affiliation. Not only the leaders of the Tang Dynasty, but also the masters of the Mosan faction came. We will capture several Jiangshi soldiers and use them as living bodies, so we will see results as soon as possible… … .
… … Heavenly Demon. Even the Wolyeong Demon Army and the Blood Demon were defeated. Even if you kill a hundred Jiangshi today, a thousand new Jiangshi will be created tomorrow. I can’t handle the weirdness! In the pharmacy, it is said that if you block the Amun and Cheonchu acupuncture points with a large needle and protect the Sangdangjeon, you can put the Jiangshi to sleep, but there is no other way… … .
… … Heavenly Demon. Avoid going to remote islands. If you enter the island and close it, no matter how many million or ten million Jiangshi soldiers there are, they will not be able to come across the sea. How can there be only one Murim here? If the banner of our school is established, wouldn’t that place be a martial forest? … .
……Mr. Heavenly Demon. Will I give nothing to the promise of Daejeon? This is an oath made before the world became turbulent. The laws of heaven have changed, but the duties of humans have changed.
You can’t be firm. Forget the oath you shared with the Murim Lord, and please come back to me…
Heavenly Demon.
Heavenly Demon.

“—How did you endure it?”
After being silent for a while, the first question I asked was this.
How did you survive?
A hell where the world has been destroyed and people have been reduced to corpses. Even he himself became half a corpse. He asked how on earth he had endured for three years when there was a risk that his heart would stop if the flow of internal energy was blocked even for a moment.
“…….”
The Heavenly Demon and the Murim Lord were unable to answer hastily. The two looked at each other. And after sharing a look that I couldn’t understand, we nodded together.
“Follow me.”
The two people left the cave.
I also followed the two people.
We were silent as we left the cave. I walked carefully so as not to wake up the rest of the group. So we were silent for a long time.
The silence was broken as soon as the cave ended.
“People die someday.”
Dawn was breaking outside.
“There is an interesting story told in Moorim. There was one master who attained the state of being able to overcome all poisons and invulnerable wounds, and to attain the state of being able to attain the perfection of the Diamond Buddha. “He is not eaten by any poison inside his body, so he is Buddha-eaten (不 M), and his outside body is not harmed by any sword, so he is Buddha-sang (不傷).”
Haha, the Heavenly Demon let out a breath.
“You could say it’s invincible. Inner bulsik (內不li). External injury. How can you kill someone who cannot be harmed by the cruelest poison or the sharpest sword?”
The dawn was blue.
At dusk, the world was just a pale shade.
“But there is one thing that is never tolerated in old tales. “It is invincible.”
A world of shadow. Cheonma and the Murim Lord walked there. One step at a time. slowly. The ground was where the footprints were, and the sky was where the footprints were not. What separated heaven and earth was only human footsteps.
“Ahahaha outside the bird.”
The Heavenly Demon glanced back.
We left the cave and went to yesterday’s snowy field… I was walking to a place where I was surrounded by martial arts zombies.
“Do you guess how that peak expert died?”
“How did he die?”
“I killed the color demon by grafting it on.”
The Heavenly Demon lifted the corner of his mouth.
“The pleasure of uniting yin and yang is not poison. Even less so is the sword.”
“uh. But isn’t excessive pleasure poisonous?”
“right. Therefore, the s*x demon did not bring a storm of pleasure from the beginning. Cleverly. She took her time calmly. She started with the most subtle pleasures first… In the end, to indulge in even the most fatal pleasures. “I tamed and tamed the peak master.”
Dawn has broken.
The snowy field has turned a little white.
The white color resembles the breath shed by the Heavenly Demon.
“The climactic master no longer accepts the palms of the palms struck by the s*x demon as pain. The climax master came to recognize the whip wielded by the s*x demon as pleasure. “Even the hand gestures, foot gestures, and small glances of the s*x demon became a source of happiness for the climax expert.”
Sreuk.
The Heavenly Demon raised his hand.
“At the last moment,”
And then he stroked his neck.
“lightly. “The demon just lightly strangled the master of climax.”
“…….”
“There was no need for strong inaction. No significant effort was required. Two hands. She strangled him with both hands. As his throat was strangled and he was suffocating, the climax was filled with pleasure and he smiled brightly. “Even in death, his corpse’s face smiled happily.”
The Heavenly Demon giggled.
“The climax expert literally died while being overcome by climax. “It was a Buddha ceremony and a Buddha image, but it was not misfortune.”
In the middle of a snowy field.
I saw corpses. Corpses that move as if they are not dead even after death. They were hardened and hardened by the dawn’s dusk. The corpses were motionless, so it looked like a forest made of shadows.
“The moral of this story is simple.”
“I’m telling you, don’t play around with sluts!”
The Murim Lord grumbled.
“It’s not just an old story, it’s something that really happened. Ah! “He was a master who raised jade and gold in Tangmun, but that bitch secretly sent a lustful demon to assassinate him.”
“Hehe.”
Zombies were scattered everywhere in the snow. Is this a trace that followed our group yesterday? The Heavenly Demon approached those zombies.
“Most youngsters who come out to the river for the first time are mistaken. The goal of a martial artist is to reach the state of invincibility, and the reason for learning martial arts is to gain immortality and eternal life.”
“Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssseded,” the Cheonma lifted up a zombie.
“Gal (唱).”
Heavenly Demon and the Murim Lord. The two lifted the zombie and moved it.

“A person who has achieved imperishability to all poisons will die not from poison but from something else. Those who reach the Diamond Buddha will die by something other than the sword. I understand. Kang Ho-in does not simply choose which martial arts to learn.”
The Heavenly Demon struggled to move the zombie.
“At the same time as you choose what kind of warrior you will live as, you also decide how you will die.”
The movements of the Heavenly Demon carrying the zombies were sluggish and slow.
Like a postman delivering a heavy load, the Cheonma moved a zombie, putting it down in between, taking a deep breath, and moving again.
“People die someday.”
I did that again and again.
“Aren’t we the ones who don’t know that? “How can you be bitter about dying?”
It seemed like zombies were wandering around last night. The Cheonma and the Murim Lord gathered the scattered zombies one by one.
“—But I didn’t want to die like this.”
It took a long time.
The physical strength of the two people was insignificant, and there were too many corpses.
“It’s okay to be assassinated. It is okay to be poisoned. It’s okay to fall into the trap of falling into a trap and be attacked, and it’s also okay to get hit by the Shaolin Temple’s followers. “It is good to die after being betrayed by a trusted subordinate, and it is even better to die after being asked to serve as secretary by Jisu later.”
Midheaven (中天).
By the time the Cheonma and the Murim Lord had returned the zombies to their original places, the sun had risen in the exact center of the sky. Before we knew it, the footprints of the two people were stamped on the snowy field.
“However, these deaths are unacceptable.”
The Heavenly Demon gasped and looked at me.
“Did you ask how I can endure it?”
“…….”
“We just want to die the way we want.”
An old man from the political faction lined up hundreds of corpses.
The demonic woman lined up hundreds of corpses.
Thus, the zombies looked like two armies facing off, and it seemed as if they would rush in and start fighting at any moment.
I suddenly remembered this.
“Even though the cause of death is the same, the date of death is different.”
When I fell into the apocalyptic world and saw zombies for the first time.
The conversation our group had while observing the forest of corpses.
“I have no choice but to assume that someone moved the body intentionally… .」
“Is it some kind of tomb?”
“It’s a grave. From a distance, it looks like a Terracotta Army.”
At night, zombies move as they please.
However, as many as a thousand zombies are gathered in one place in the snowy field.
If you think about it, isn’t this in itself a strange thing?
“Whoa… .”
“Hmm.”
okay.
Unless someone intentionally moved the zombies to one place.
“There are only a few who made it far today.”
The Five Hundred People of the Demonic Cult.
“It was a clear moonlit night last night. Although it is not as good as sunlight, moonlight is also eaten by jiangshi… .”
The five hundred people of the political faction.
The Heavenly Demon and the Murim Lord moved their respective minions. It was a huge task that took half a day. But the two moved in silence.
As if doing a normal routine.
“That is how we are waging a war between political and evil forces.”
“It’s already been three years.”
It’s snowing.
“The true sect martial forest will never be destroyed by a jiangshi or something like that.”
People die.
“The fate of our school will not be lost by being eaten by mere corpses.”
Gupailbang and Odaesega all disappear.
“Indeed, if our political sect must perish, it must be only because of the wicked fingertips of the Demonic Cult.”
Even if all the unpaid secretaries become dusty and no one can read them.
“If our school disappears from the world, it will only be due to the sword of political faction.”
This world has not been destroyed yet.
For the world to be destroyed, two people must die.
Even if there are a billion people in the world, and 9,999 people die from infectious diseases every 9,999,000,000,000,000 people. The last one left. If the last person to die commits suicide, the cause of death in that world is not a soldier, but simply suicide.
At least the leader of the martial arts and the sky of the demonic religion thought so.
“Murim lord. Namgung family, Taesang family. Namgoongun.”
The old man took control.
“It’s Buwol Line.”
“Master Demon. So Baek-hyang.”
The woman took control.
“It’s a heavenly demon.”
The sun has crossed the sky.
Many years have passed since the two people remained in the world.
For those years, their only concern was how to determine the cause of death in this world.
“The sea asking for the 990th wedding.”
Is it the destruction of the Demonic Cult by the Murim Lord?
“Is it a matter of life or death?”
Or is it the destruction of the political faction by the Heavenly Demon?
“Life and death.”
“Don’t accept it.”
The two warriors released their guns.
In the middle of the snowy field where the five hundred Jeongpain and the five hundred demons faced each other, the Murim Lord and the Heavenly Demon rushed in.
I still couldn’t recognize the martial arts skills the two were performing. From what I could see, they were barely taking steps. Hard work. I really barely stretched out my arms.
His foot movements were so slow that even a child wouldn’t be able to chase him.
His hand movements were so weak that he couldn’t even crush a single tangerine.
“…….”
A genre that has declined.
A world in decline.
This apocalypse was slowly dying over the course of 990 days.
“This… .”
I opened my mouth.
While watching the two people dancing from afar, I muttered something without realizing it.
“It can’t go on like this.”
My heart was pounding.
“It’s unreasonable.”
-…….
“It shouldn’t be like this.”
A fierce fight took place in the snowy field. The Murim Lord and the Cheonma, who once discussed who was the best in the world and displayed brilliant martial arts, were now only capable of grappling at the level of children. I rolled in the snow. I stumbled. They grabbed his beard and tore out his hair.
“In the eyes of the Sword Emperor, this might seem like a really great fight. yes. I’m like a beginner who just got into swordsmanship. But no matter how great the trick is, no matter how great the logic is hidden in it… … ”
Until daylight passes and evening comes.
The Murim Lord and the Heavenly Demon did not stop fighting even for a moment.
“This is an insult.”
The sunset has set.
Even today, the winner was not determined.
“It’s an insult to both of them.”
A world in decline.
In a world where an infectious disease was rampant with no cure, the two martial arts people were strong enough to survive. But they were too weak to take each other’s lives.
“It can’t be like this.”
The world is cruel because you cannot be born the way you want. So what is a world where you can’t die the way you want?
That I can’t even finish it properly.
Life was just cut off midway.
-What are you going to do?
Bae Hu-ryeong said quietly.
-Are you going to kill Cheonma and kill the Murim Lord instead? okay. That too can be a merciful gift. If it were me, I would be like that. However, we must not forget that both you and I are just ‘strangers’.
“i know.”
The two martial artists do not wish to commit suicide.
If one must die, one’s only hope is to die at the hands of the other person.
The Demonic Cult is not destroyed by a strange disease or something, but collapses by being defeated by a political faction.
The political faction does not succumb to an epidemic or something, but is destroyed by the advent of the Demonic World.
Such an end.
Proper ending.
An understandable destination in life.
Even if I stormed in and killed those two, it wouldn’t be the [end] or [ending]. It’s not even a merciful gift.
Things like that are just scribbles that a child added to the back of a storybook.
That doesn’t work.
“I am,”
I told Bae Hu-ryeong.
“I will preserve this world in my own way.”
-What is that method?
I did not answer Bae Hu-ryeong’s question.
The sunset has come.
“Well, it’s already evening. “You old man.”
“Maybe it’s because it’s winter… Huh. The day goes by quickly… .”
“I will definitely settle the matter tomorrow.”
“Who can say… .”
The evening deepened.
The 990th day of the Great War naturally ended in a ceasefire.
The Heavenly Demon and the Murim Lord withdrew their hands and returned to the cave, looking more exhausted than yesterday.
“Where have you been?”
The group welcomed us.
A poisonous snake stood guard at the entrance to the cave, and the Alchemist and the Medicine King were busy researching something while surrounding the zombies. It was the zombie of an independent writer who surprised us yesterday.
“We were seeing a patient. Yesterday I was so anxious… .”
“Is there any progress?”
The Medicine King and the Alchemist looked at each other. The Medicine King tsk first.
“Not yet.”
“yes… “This is my first time seeing a virus like this.”
I guess so.
Macheon and the Murim Lord walked to the other side of the cave, saying they would rest first. I saw the two martial arts people’s backs moving away and turned my attention to the pharmacist.
“president.”
“yes?”
“Please be honest. “If you were to create a cure, roughly how long would it take?”
“ah. Umm, uhm.”
The pharmacist hesitated.
“To be really honest… “At least 120 days.”
“Twice that. It might take three times longer. Normally, this kind of schedule should be generous. “Even if you take enough, it will still not be enough.”
The Medicine King added bluntly. The apothecary bowed his head.
“… … Yes, that is correct too. It’s really the worst case scenario… .”
hmm.
“If it’s short, it’s 100 days. If it’s long, can I say it’s about 300 days?”
“eww. that is… … ”
The pharmacist lowered his head.
“Say, actually, I might not be able to make it at all. The facilities and environment are poor. I can’t give you any guarantees at this point. Death King. sorry… . You believed in me and brought me to this stage… “It is impossible to develop a treatment within the time limit.”
Time limit.
The Librarian said as he sent us to the Apocalypse.
“When you guys open your eyes, it will still be a world 10 days before the Chronicles of the Heavenly Demon suffered an unfortunate cessation of serialization.”
“I hope you will see a wonderful ending.”
That is, no matter what will happen.
In 10 days, the world will truly end.
The Heavenly Demon and the Murim Lord, who have struggled to survive so far, will also die.
The pharmacist referred to those ten days as the limited time.
“I’m truly sorry…” .”
“no.”
I shook my head.
“That’s enough.”
“Yes, yes?”
“Do not worry. president.”
A dagger worn at the waist.
I slowly smoothed the hilt of the sword.
“I will solve the time problem somehow. “Don’t give up and keep studying.”
“…….”
“The words I said yesterday when I first fell into this world. “Do you remember?”
This is no ordinary book.
It is truly one world.
We are here to save the world.
“……..”
The pharmacist nodded cautiously.
The two of us were sharing some kind of look.
“… Hey, I remember. Of course I remember, Death King… .”
I also nodded.
“What I have to say is the same as yesterday. The time limit is just around the corner. If you don’t beat this stage, you’ll never be able to escape from the apocalypse. Please stop all such random thoughts. “I will do my best in my position, so please show me only your best.”
“Quit all distracting thoughts… … ”
“yes. I promise you. “Other than that, we will take care of all other issues.”
I said.
Toward the person who will later be called the Lord of Alchemy Castle.
“Please trust me and work for me.”
etc,
