Chapter 658 - “The Great Servant” and “The Savior’s Servant”
We headed to Mt. Yumyeong, which is the descendent of the Chun Lai sect, with the masters of the Chun Lai sect.
Since the masters of the Chun Lei sect acknowledged him as the Grand Master, there was no awkwardness in going together.
There were many masters who were proud to serve him as the Grand Master.
Anyway, the end gate is the weak meat.
The masters of the Chun Lei sect, who dream of becoming the 'God of the Three Thousand,' longed to become like the great master, Yeon Jeok-Ha.
They showed great interest in the 'Giyeon of the Holy Spirit' and the first appearance of the 'Gucheon Sword Spirit'.
In particular, Jinin used to gather whenever they had a spare time and talk about their rivals.
At the center of it was always old sim.
Simtong expanded his position by satisfying the curiosity of the true people.
***
Yeongcheonju.
Nakil-hyeon, Cheongsanseong.
Tianlei sect Zhongshan Yumyeongsan.
January and full moon.
On the day the first snow fell in Yeongcheonju, Yeon Jeok-ha and the masters of the Chun-rae sect arrived at Mt. Yumyeong, the last mountain.
Venerable Gwangseong introduced Yeonjeokha to the disciples of the Chunroe sect and gave Byeoryeokgung, the residence of successive sects, to them.
That day, Sim Tong moved to Byeokryeok Palace after seeking permission from his teacher, the Okcheong Union. And he followed Yeonjeokha like a shadow, just like in Kangho.
As the sun went down, the couple went to the Heavenly Territory of the Tian Lei sect with shimtong.
Simtong, who had arrived in heaven, looked around Yeon-sin to see if he was looking for something.
"what?"
“Didn’t it be said that there is an astronomical gate in heaven?”
"however."
“I can’t see the door.”
Yeonjeokha pointed to the two stone pillars standing at the edge of the cliff.
“That’s Astronomy.”
“That stone pillar is the Astronomical Gate?”
Shimtong looked at the stone pillar and the serial drop with half-confident eyes alternately.
Yeon Jeok-ha replied with a sullen face.
“Then did you think Heavenly Gate looked like a gate? If you open the door and go in, will the heavens come out?”
"yes."
He nodded his head with a serious face.
To his mind, those were just two stone pillars.
Considering its appearance, it would have been more correct to say it was heavenly, not heavenly.
“Old Sim, throw away your stereotypes.”
“Was that a stereotype? Aren’t people naming them wrong?”
“The Venerable Taeeul said, ‘The door is just a boundary. The boundary between this world and the other world. Do you understand why I want to have a fontanelle?”
“You want to go back to Gangho?”
"uh. My sister decided to do the same.”
“Guju is much wider than Kangho, and the lifespan is long enough to be said to be immortal. Besides, isn't Confucius's wife also here?”
Then Yeon Jeok-ha looked at him with a pitiful face.
“Old Sim, don’t you worry about your disciples? Have you already forgotten about Moon-ah and Geum-ah?”
“They are my students, so I can’t forget them.”
“We are all in Brahma Yokgyewang Jaecheon. Do you think Danga will stay still? Even if I robbed the Seokgyeongjang, I would have robbed it ten more times. Do you know how vicious the Tang people are? Do you think they would have gone back without us?”
“Still, there is a Namgung family, so they couldn’t believe they took their family members?”
“Tsk tsk! I know one, I don't know the other. Is your head not working well because you are blinded by greed? Even when we were there, there were people who invaded Seokgyeongjang. Wasn’t there a Namgung family back then?”
“Grunt!”
A groan of pain escaped from the shimtong mouth.
Still, he never said he would return to Gangho.
“Old Sim.”
"yes?"
“Don’t overdo it. You know nothing is free in this world, right?”
“Of course not.”
He laughed at the shimtong that had been worn out in the river.
I never thought Yeon Jeok-ha would say something like that in front of him for writing a text message in front of Confucius.
“I think about that these days. The fact that clans extort spiritual energy through self-sufficiency. Don't you think it's strange?"
“What's wrong? Doesn’t Kangho also have a suction hole?”
“Yes, there are side effects to the suction hole.”
Then old sim got the word right away.
“However, there are no side effects to the suction of the sect. I know because I did it.”
“That is strange.”
"yes? What?"
"It's no different from extorting someone else's blood, but there are no side effects."
"Then it's good, why is it weird?"
“Tsk tsk! Like an old man who knows one thing and doesn't know the other. The people of the Savior also believe in a Creator God. If you go down the mountain right away, you will find the shrines of the Three Heavens and the Eight Kings. Still don't know?"
“There are many shrines in Gangho, too.”
“The people of the Savior believe in this life and the hereafter, just as we do. But there's one thing these people don't say. Do you know what it is?”
“What is it?”
“To speak of the afterlife means that there is karma. That such people live by preying on each other like beasts. With just the thought of becoming a ‘god of three thousand’. If you accumulate karma like that, you won't see a good end, let alone divine status. They just go the way of the beast.”
“… … .”
Then old sim was uncomfortable.
He wanted to retort, but nothing came to mind.
“Do you know what I mean when I say nothing is free in this world?”
“… … yes."
When Shimtong made a downcast face, the rivalry did not push him any further.
“Anyway, this place is just a stone pillar.”
“Does Soyojong’s fontanelle look like that?”
“Oh, so no one has ever opened the gates of heaven for so many years.”
“That’s right. Still, because there is something, the devils in the inferno must be looking for it, right?”
“What is it?”
I carefully inspected the astronomical gates of the Cheonroi sect.
Only the type and size of the stones were slightly different, but they were almost the same as those of Soyojong.
I haven't seen the heavenly gates of the Tiantai sect yet, but the heavenly gates of other sects are probably no different.
The Venerable Hyemun said as if he needed to get authority by pressuring the servant, but that's okay.
Doing so doesn't seem to turn the stone pillar into a door.
'what?'
‘Open the heavenly gate [天門]’ at the Cheonaebulmunbi. That's your mission,' so it must be open.
"shit. It would have been nice if you had taught me how to do it.”
When Yeonjeokha grumbled, then old sim tilted its head.
“What do you mean?”
“Yes, something like that.”
I answered with a dry voice and looked at the stone pillar again.
However, until the sun went down, I circled around the stone pillar to investigate, but there was nothing unusual.
“Oh, I don’t know. how do you open it? I have to see where it's closed to open it. is not it?"
When Yeonjeokha grumbled, he nodded in pain.
"you're right. You lost, but are you going to stop today?”
“I’ll turn. I thought that if I had an observatory, something would show me... … .”
The shooting ceremony exploded.
There should be some clue, but it is just a pillar of stone.
‘The mission is a bitch. I don't know if it's only eating up a hundred years, a thousand years.'
If that happens, going back to Gangho won't make any sense.
It might be better to just settle down and live in the Savior like a simtong.
If you go back to Gangho in a thousand years, there will be no one left to protect Eun-Won, let alone Eun-Won.
“Old Sim. If I can't open the fontanel in a hundred years, I'll just sit here.”
In an instant, the color of blood turned to the face of the old sim that withered.
“Good idea. At that time, even if you go, there will be no one who has known Confucius.”
"yes? I think so too. Anyway, I live in Gangho, I live in Guju, it's a lifetime. There is no reason to go back if there is no one left to protect.”
In a fit of anger, I just threw out a word.
Then old sim knew that it was the yeon jeokha sincerity, and he was happy.
***
After that, Yeonjeokha spent as much as 15 days in and out of the heavenly realm, clinging to astronomical investigations.
In his spare time, he found and read records on astronomy in Seogak of Cheonroojong.
When he got tired of studying astronomy, he went to the Venerable Kwang-seong to learn the martial arts of the Chun-roi species.
The Venerable Gwangseong, who believed that ‘the more Yeonjeokha learns the martial arts of the Chunrae sect, the farther away he is from the Soyo sect’, taught him the martial arts of the Chunrae sect wholeheartedly.
Around that time, the world of the Savior was shaken once.
The Cheonji School merged the Taesang School and the Mugeuk School, which were confronting each other in Bulgwigok.
thunderbolt palace.
Surprised by the leap of the Cheonji sect, the venerable Gwangseong went to see Yeon Jeok-ha, the great master, early in the morning.
“Master Grand Master, it is said that three days ago, the Cheonjijong combined the Taesang and Mugeuk sects.”
I pretended to be surprised.
“I thought it was strange because it was quiet for a while, so I guess you were aiming for that? But is the Cheonji sect strong enough to deal with two sects?”
“Bingseolhwa's masters imprisoned the Taesangjong and the Mugeukjong in Bulgwigok with the heavenly court. As for Taesangjong and Mugeukjong, they only cared about each other and got hit in the back of the head.”
“There were servants from two sects in that place, didn’t they break through the Dharma camp?”
“Would you have bowed your head and entered? There is a rumor going around that the wisdom of Ice and Snow has reached the sky. It is said that the Venerable Chu Hui also knew about it and gave Bing Seolhwa his servant’s plaque early on.”
“Are you saying that if you lose the job, you’re the next job?”
“More than that. Engagement plaque means engagement. It can be seen that the Venerable Chu Hui entrusted the work of Cheonjijong to Bingseolhwa. Since you're still a gentleman, I only entrusted you with the servant's plaque, and when Bingseolhwa reaches the stage of becoming an object, the servant's position will be handed over.”
"Then you're saying that the actual ruler of the Heavens and Earths sect is the Ice and Snow Fellows?"
"That's right. I knew that he was so good that he could make the Venerable Chu Hui withdraw from the front line, but I did not expect that the members of the Taesang Order and the Mugeuk Order would be defeated without even using their hands.”
“What happened to the Taesang and Mugeuk sects?”
“That is a little strange. It seems that you, Ice Snow Hwa, are imitating Grand Master.”
“Imitate?”
“It is said that they only received an oath to serve the Chunji sect as their suzerain. I think Grand Master should take action before the Ice and Snow folks grow stronger.”
“Are you trying to strike the heaven and earth bell?”
"That's right. Then, if the Northern Beopyojong, Gwangyeomjong, and Heoljujong fall into the hands of Ice and Snow... … . The Grand Master's authority may collapse.”
Venerable Gwangseong carefully examined the complexion of Grand Master Yeonjeokha.
The Great Master of Yanjeokhe only obtained one species of Tianluo, while the Ice and Snow Flower has already obtained three species.
In this way, ‘the servant of the Savior’ may be more persuasive than the ‘great servant’.
In fact, there were even voices saying, ‘What kind of great servant are you after you get one of the thunder bells?’.
Of course, it was a rumor spread intentionally by Cheonjijong.
“Do we have the power to strike heaven and earth?”
“It is possible by attracting the Soyao and Tiantai sects.”
So, it was a call for a war between the Cheonji Sect Alliance and the Chun Rae Sect Alliance.
He nodded his head in suspense.
Anyway, the sooner he integrated the clan, the better.
“That's a good idea. Send messengers to Soyojong and Cheontaejong to confirm their intentions. The winner of this fight will unite the nine schools, right?”
“It will be.”
The Venerable Gwangseong replied in a determined tone.
Although it was a war that started with the heavenly gates, the unification of the religious schools was something that would go down in history.
Never thought you'd find yourself in the middle of such a great transformation!
When six of the nine gates are merged, the other three gates will bow down and enter on their own.
It is said that the unification of the sects is not a vain delusion.
Things I could not have imagined before unfolded right under the war, so I was in a hurry to follow.
‘At this rate, the nine sects might really become one… … .’
If you obtain the nine heavenly gates as the great master wishes, something might change.
'gulp.'
Just thinking about it made my heart race.
If the secret of astronomy is solved, can we just watch it then?
No way.
An insidious aura appeared in the eyes of the Venerable Gwangseong, but soon disappeared.
