364. Breaking the seal (5)
Murim Alliance.
It was literally possible to describe this place as a factional martial forest itself.
In fact, it can be said that the aspect of the martial arts called the right faction, or the white path, originated from the martial arts alliance.
“I would like to thank everyone for attending our emergency meeting.”
As the powerful magnates often say, the Murim Alliance is like a union of all political factions.
And because of that, when a major incident occurs in a river, the Murim Alliance is the first to be stirred up.
therefore… … .
“I am Cheon Kang-un, the leader of the main clan.”
What happened this time wasn’t that different.
“Everyone here already knows me.”
The vast conference room of the Murim League.
Cheon Kang-un sat at the head of the conference room and turned his head, his eyes sparkling.
Currently, most of the organizations such as Gupa Ilbang and Odaesega have participated in the convening of this emergency meeting and are sitting in their seats.
“Probably, most of the people here are acquaintances of mine at least once.”
Even that meeting had different members from the regular Murim Alliance meeting.
Before we knew it, all the people taking up seats throughout the conference room were elderly people, and that meant only one thing.
A world-class expert.
Even though they are figures from the past, that is, from the very distant past, they are all truly capable people who not only have power but also possess monstrous strength.
At that, Cheon Kang-un’s eyes seemed to sink.
‘I never thought I’d see the faces of these old monsters again, but… … .’
However, just for a moment.
“There is only one agenda item that led to the convening of an emergency meeting.”
Suddenly, Cheon Kang-woon opened his mouth with a cool flash in his eyes.
“It’s other than the subjugation of martial arts enemies.”
Cheon Kang-un sipped the tea on the conference room table and continued speaking.
“Starting with the factions of King Hyeonmun Jeongjong in Shaanxi, such as the Hwasan faction and the Jongnam faction, six of the nine factions were attacked by one evil beast.”
In fact, it was like an unprecedented event.
Since the people gathered here are only old monsters who have lived for hundreds of years, they are like witnesses to the living history of the martial arts world.
However, even these centuries-old monsters have never seen anything like this before.
Cheon Kang-woon looked around the inside of the conference room and asked a favor to those centuries-old old monsters, as if explaining the seriousness of the situation.
“Perhaps, the people here will also become the target of that vicious beast, so I hope you will lend us your strength like the old masters of the past.”
Of course, it was only a formal request.
Anyway, if we have to avoid the evil beast that eliminated six of the nine factions, we will have to join forces.
Cheon Kang-woon is the master of the Murim Alliance, and all the martial powers, such as the nine factions and the five generations, are members of the Murim Alliance. Even if they were the best of the past, they could not easily reject that statement.
But to what extent is that true in a general sense?
“Why should I do that?”
In an instant, an old man wearing purple clothes expressed his refusal.
It was Dang Nak-un, the head of the Sichuan Dang family, one of the five great families.
After training by taking numerous poisons, including biological poisons and mineral poisons, he reached the level of a poisoner and was recognized as a peerless expert.
Tang Luo-yun was even arrogant as he was an old monster who had been active as a member of the Heavenly Five Festivals, a hierarchy 300 years ago, among the unrivaled masters of the past.
“It’s just foolish things that happened to me. Then there is no need for me to move. “There’s no need to listen to your little brat’s orders.”
Tang Luo-yun showed a sneer on his purple face.
“As expected of a member of the Four Sects, you still have a shitty personality, Tang Luo-un.”
However, just for a moment.
“That’s why you still can’t be called a political faction.”
That was the moment when an old man wearing a uniform with a plum blossom pattern said that.
“What kind of arrogant guy is talking like that…” … !”
Tang Luo-un frowned at him and tried to swear, but was shocked when he saw the other person’s face.
“Red maeja (赤梅子)… … .”
“Yes, it is me.”
The red maeja smiled.
Three hundred years ago, he also worked as a Cheonhaojeol, a member of the same hierarchy as Tang Luo-un, and was one of the peerless masters called the best swordsman of his time.
It was literally like a volcanic sword itself.
Although he is now semi-retired and remains in the position of Elder Taesang, his authority is greater than that of Jang Mun-in of the Hwasan faction of the time.
“You are still unable to establish yourself as a political sect because you cannot let go of that sectarian temperament.”
At Jeokmaeja’s words, Dang Nak-un gritted his teeth and showed his will to live.
“you… … !!”
however.
“Dang Nak-un. Be quiet. Right now, we are dealing with the great events of the martial arts world. “Do me a favor.”
Even that was easily prevented.
“I’m asking this as a favor to all of us, both of the same hierarchy.”
It’s no different… … .
“Do you understand?”
Because Unsooja, one of the Taesang elders of the Jongnam sect, said so.
He was also a world-class expert from 300 years ago, and he was also a person called Jongnam Geomseon (終南劍仙), one of the five temples in the world, so his authority was the same as that of Jeokmaeja.
Moreover, he was now included in the Shinju Four Stars, a hierarchy that was created about a hundred years ago, so unlike a retired expert like Jeokmaeja, he had power close to active duty.
I even realized that the meaning behind his words was nothing short of bloody.

That’s because the transporter’s words meant that this was the end of Tang Luo-un’s saving of face.
‘okay… … . When it comes to saving face as part of the same World and Five Festivals, you just tell us to keep our mouths shut… … . It means that if you don’t, you will lose face.’
Tang Luo-yun had no choice but to remain silent.
Even if it is the same Heavenly Autumn Festival, the difference is clearly real.
At best, Tang Luo-yun was treated as a mere master of dragon poisoning, while those two fought for the position of the best in the world while dealing with one of the five temples in the world, the Invincible One.
‘They pretend to be humans, they are like bastards…’ … .’
Tang Luo-un suppressed his boiling anger and answered with feigned composure.
“… … flaw. I understand. I can’t help it when the Unsujin of the Jongnam faction says that. “I apologize.”
Only then did the transporter respond with a smile.
“That’s good of you to say that.”
And with that, the fight in the hall ended.
Didn’t two of them agree to subdue the evil beasts during the Five Festivals of Heaven and Earth?
Even the few other experts gathered in the conference hall were watching them.
Cheon Kang-un sensed that there would finally be harmony of opinion, so he calmed his voice and spoke.
“I think there will probably be no end to the meeting if we keep going like this, so I’ll just get to the point. “This group has already included two of the Five Days of Heaven and Earth in this matter.”
The red maeja opened his eyes wide and said.
“Hoo. If we’ve already captured two of the Five Festivals of Heaven and Earth, doesn’t that mean we’ve captured them all, including those here? then… … .”
“That’s right. “I called upon Changcheon Geomjon (蒼天劍尊), Namgungsu (南宮秀), the head of the Namgung family’s royal family, and Seonwon Invincible (鮮元無敵子) and Seonwonja (鮮元子), who are the crown princes of the Shaman faction.”
“They are prostitutes.”
The transporter muttered as if recalling memories, and the red maeja burst into laughter and said.
“These are characters that remind me of the old days. Three hundred years ago, I thought I was going to be killed by a sailor… … . “Well, it feels reassuring to think of that deacon as a colleague.”
“Namgungsu, that friend must have been training in a closed area these days to create a sword technique called Changcheon Sword Type. It looks like even the closed pipe training is over now. “Interestingly.”
Then, the porter stroked his beautifully grown beard and asked a question.
“So, do you know where the evil beast that exterminated that monk is?”
“Of course. It was said in the Volcanic Sect that the beast revealed where it came from. “I already know where it is.”
“okay… … . Did you say you found out where that annoying enemy is? If so, let me know. “Where is he?”
“It’s not that far.”
and.
“Shandong White Family.”
Next moment.
“therefore… … .”
Cheon Kang-un said, his eyes tinged with hostility.
“The Baek clan family, which decided to exterminate us not long ago, sent an evil beast.”
***
“The achievement ‘Murim Achievement’ has been achieved.”
“Exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increased Compensation] is automatically activated when the conditions are met.”
“The level of rewards obtained from achievements increases.”
“All abilities increase by 10.”
‘What is this again?’
I narrowed my eyes as I looked at the system message that suddenly appeared in front of me.
It’s a feat of martial arts.
Perhaps he was considered an enemy in some unknown place… … .
Anyway, I had somewhat expected that this would be the case at this point, after destroying the great forces such as Hwasan and Jongnam.
‘Well, it doesn’t really matter.’
It didn’t feel that bad.
All abilities have increased by 10 thanks to the achievement, so it can be said to be a benefit.
Even, looking at the treasure chest(?)-like beggar in front of me, the reward felt even sweeter.
“so… … .”
It’s no different… … .
「Chwiguhwan」
「Grade: B+」
“It is an elixir of vision refined in the open world.”
「When taken based on magic power operation, the magic power level increases by up to +15.」
「※However, if you consume Chiguhwan multiple times, the effect of taking it will be greatly reduced and you will no longer be able to see the magic power increase effect.」
“Are you saying this is the elixir of openness?”
“… … yes! “That’s right, great man!”
This is because Gwanggae, whose entire body is covered in bruises, rubs his hands and brings out a hidden reward.
‘It’s worth it to keep him alive.’
I smiled at him.
‘It was a vicious beast that suddenly appeared and I wanted to kill it so I could kill it, but I did well to keep it alive.’
Originally, in order to experiment with the mythical <Incarnation of the Apocalypse>, he wanted to kill the beggar in front of him called Gwanggae.
It’s just that one of the beggars happened to say that Gwanggae was the successor to Openness, so he changed his mind.
Because it seemed like Gwanggae would be suitable for automatic farming of hidden rewards that would be unlocked.
And not only that, but the fact that the level of Gwanggae was not that high was also one of the reasons why I had no desire to kill him.
‘Anyway, even if you kill an enemy without divinity, it’s not like you can take away their unique characteristics.’
To be worth dealing with, you had to at least be at the same level as the long-time members of the Volcanic Sect.
In reality, it wasn’t a choice I particularly regretted.
Most of the rewards in the opening could be obtained through the hands of Gwanggae, and not only that, I also obtained the only elixir in the opening.
‘Is this what small but certain happiness is?’
Unlike places like Volcanic Wave, it wasn’t a huge benefit, but it was satisfactory.
‘That’s fun.’
It’s not even just that.
Is it because the mythical <Incarnation of the Apocalypse> was once at the crossroads of life and death due to a mix of punches?
Before I knew it, Gwanggae was acting and speaking very kindly, unlike before he fainted.
‘Is this the reward of being an educator?’
It was only for a moment that I felt rewarded for it.
“Anyway, this is all you have?”
“… … yes.”
“hmm.”
Could it be that the martial artist’s unique mental illness still hasn’t been cured?
The moment I looked at Gwanggae with sad eyes.
For some reason, Gwanggae’s face immediately turned pale.
“Ah, ahhh! It’s real! It’s real! “Don’t hit him anymore, don’t hit him anymore, man!”
“You’re hitting me? This is not a beating, but can definitely be seen as a process of enlightenment… … .”
“Hey!”
However, just for a moment.
“information!”
“?”
“I’ll tell you some information that might be helpful to you!”
“… … .”
I nodded my head as if to tell him to speak first, and Gwanggae responded desperately.
“We have received intelligence that the Murim Alliance has recruited the Heavenly Emperor and is targeting Daein!”
“Five days of Heaven?”
“yes! Why, those world-class masters who existed in a long time ago and were called in the same hierarchy as the Invincible Sailors! “It is said that the main branch has captured them!”
“so?”
“According to the report posted by Se-jak planted by Gae-gyeong, it is expected that two of the five temples in the world have already been recruited, and the remaining three of the five temples in the world have gone to the Murim Alliance… … .”
“In short, it means that five of Moorim’s top talents are coming.”
and.
“okay… … .”
I had to lick my lips and smile pleasantly.
“There are five masters coming.”
It’s no different… … .
“You’re lucky.”
“?”
“You’re just saying that the martial arts masters are looking for me without me having to go look for them myself?”
“… … .”
“Then I’m glad.”
In fact, doesn’t this mean that the time to end Biwon’s ordeal is approaching?
“Well, I’m looking forward to it.”
And very quickly.
