Chapter 697 - Today is a good day to be alive

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yeongcheonju.

 

Sabiseong.

 

Baegun Lake, Dongchon County.

 

 

 

Gwangmyeong Shrine.

 

Standing along the lake, Gwangmyeong Sindang, as the name suggests, is a shrine dedicated to Gwangmyeongjincheon.

 

The name is Shindang Gwangmyeong, but like the Shindang of Guju, Shindang Gwangmyeong has never been visited by Gwangmyeong Jincheon.

 

Gwangmyeongjincheon and religious masters visited the Gwangmyeong Shrine.

 

I didn't visit for a specific purpose.

 

It's just that I stopped by because I didn't have a good place to rest on the way to Zhongshan Mountain.

 

Unfortunately, no one welcomed him.

 

This is because the priests of Gwangmyeong Shrine fled and it was empty.

 

 

 

around noon.

 

Gwangmyeong Jincheon, who was sitting reclining in front of a wooden statue made in his own image, spoke.

 

“Is anyone there?”

 

"yes."

 

The grain mill union that had been waiting nearby came running in a month.

 

“Do you have any news from the Grand Master?”

 

"Not yet."

 

“Tsk!”

 

Gwangmyeong Jincheon clicked his tongue with a disapproving face.

 

The other servants ran to him on their own and bowed their heads, but they had to call their rivals.

 

That's why I asked the grain milling union about it.

 

He couldn't understand why the human, Yeonjeokhe, would not obey him, the god of the three thousand.

 

“Let the shimtong come.”

 

"yes."

 

On his way back, the song division union tilted his head.

 

It is because we do not know why the ‘god of the three heavens’ like Gwangmyeongjincheon is looking for a true man.

 

After a while, Jin-in of shimtong approached the shrine.

 

“Did you call?”

 

Gwangmyeong Jincheon, who was staring at the old sim, said.

 

“You haven’t taken the aura of the Wolseong Geumgu yet. Are you not greedy? Are you lazy?”

 

“Don’t they say that eating in haste makes you sick? I plan to choose an auspicious day and take it.”

 

“Tsk tsk! Today, when you are alive, is an auspicious day. What's the point of waiting if you die tomorrow?"

 

“I apologize.”

 

Old sim bowed his head.

 

I tried to escape with the excuse of long work, but Gwangmyeongjincheon did not allow a gap.

 

“The demons around the demon are different from the demons you've seen so far. You must protect yourselves while I deal with the demon. Do you think Jinin will be the opponent of the Demons?”

 

“Who are you referring to when you say demons…? … .”

 

Shimtong secretly examined Gwangmyeong Jincheon's complexion.

 

Unlike Namgungyeon, Simtong neglected his studies on ‘The Sky of Kings’. This is because he devoted himself to learning the martial arts of the Chun Lei sect in order to survive.

 

So, I wondered if the demons were talking about the light angel Bered or the corps commander Aktus Balazik, or if there was someone else to be careful of.

 

“Looking at his expression, he doesn't seem to know the demons. Macheon is divided into three classes. Monsters at the bottom are monsters with only the instinct to kill, at the top are demons with rationality, and at the top are demons that control demons and monsters, such as Bered the Light Angel and Aktus Balazik, the Corps Commander. If there are about a dozen demons following the corps commander, about a hundred demons follow a feudal lord like the light angel Bered.”

 

"omg! Do you think a thousand people follow the Demon God?”

 

“If there are a thousand demons, not a single member of the sect will survive.”

 

“… … .”

 

The shocking sound was so shocking that only the old sim was blinding.

 

Then Gwangmyeong Jincheon smiled and continued her words.

 

“Don't worry too much. Demons are fussy, so they won't give their side to the demons. There are less than 10 demons following the Demon God now.”

 

A sigh of relief escaped from shimtong.

 

Anyway, the higher ups will be responsible for things like demons, jehunis, and corps commanders. The greatest threat to the disciples of the sect seems to be demons, but it is fortunate that there are not a thousand of them.

 

Gwangmyeong Jincheon poured cold water on old sim.

 

“The demon's potential is on a different level from that of the devil. Their strength is generally not up to the corps commander, but sometimes there are demons that rival the corps commander. Imagine that those demons are mixed with demons.”

 

“… … .”

 

shimtong mouth hung open.

 

To be able to fight demons comparable to a corps commander who is superior to a servant!

 

It was a sight I didn't even want to imagine.

 

“Now, do you understand the meaning of the words, ‘Today is a good day to be alive’?”

 

"yes… … .”

 

Shimtong replied with a dead face.

 

He was in conflict with the warning of his rival, but if he was killed by the demons, he would only lose himself.

 

'under! Nothing is easy in this world.'

 

Even with the ancient treasure of Wolseong Geumgu's spirit stone, such a worry?

 

“Go and rest. Tomorrow, whether or not Grand Master comes, I will go to Chun Lei Chong Mountain.”

 

"yes."

 

Simtong bowed his head to Gwangmyeong Jincheon and returned to the Jinin's camp.

 

 

 

Baegun Lakeside (白雲湖畔) Jinin's camp.

 

Simtong, who returned from meeting Gwangmyeong Jincheon, sat down under a pine tree and entered the long hall.

 

Do you take the risk to absorb the spiritual energy of Wolseong Geumgu? Or are you going to face the demonic army as it is?

 

None of them were at risk.

 

If the spirit energy of Wolseong Geumgu is absorbed and the balance of the spirit energy is broken, it will die or become a disabled person.

 

Conversely, if you encounter a demon with outstanding abilities during a melee, it will also be dangerous.

 

He was frustrated because he couldn't even bring up such a serious issue in front of the younger enemy.

 

Someone approached shimtong, who was breathing heavily.

 

He is the golden evil Jinin of the Taesang sect.

 

Shimtong was Wonyeong seven stars, and Geumak Jinin was Wonyeong eight stars, so the two were getting along very close.

 

“What kind of trouble do you have on your face?”

 

The Golden Evil Jinin sat down next to shimtong.

 

He waved his hand as if the shimtong was no big deal.

 

“What are you worried about? no. It’s just that I’m a little frustrated.”

 

“What is there to be frustrated about? The Grand Master is firmly supporting us from behind.”

 

Geumak Jinin took it back with a ridiculous face.

 

Simtong Jin-in was a great master and a person from the east, and had a special position in the sect.

 

Although he is a true man, it is no exaggeration to say that the treatment towards him is almost at the union level.

 

In fact, unions tend to look at him.

 

Is there anything frustrating about him?

 

Hesitating, he said with a passing tone.

 

“If someone were to give a precious elixir to a Jinjin of Golden Evil, what would the Jinjin of Golden Evil do?”

 

“I should say thank you and accept it. Is that what you're worried about?”

 

“But what if that elixir doesn’t suit the constitution of a Jinn of Golden Evil?”

 

“Isn’t it right for your constitution?”

 

“What would you do if you could have fatal side effects on your body if you did it wrong? Would you like to eat it anyway?”

 

Then the golden evil Jinin laughed.

 

“Shim Jin-in. There are three things that are good for our disciples, even if we eat and die. Have you ever heard of it?”

 

“Is there such a thing?”

 

Shimtong, not having lived as a disciple for a long time, twinkled in his eyes.

 

“Even if you die after eating, the first is Yeongseok, the second is Honseok, and the third is Naedan or Seondan.”

 

"ah!"

 

An exclamation flowed from the old sim mouth.

 

I didn't know that Yeongseok, Honseok, and Naedan would pop out here.

 

But is it good to eat and die?

 

Does it mean that it is that dangerous to take the aura of the spirit stone, the soul stone, the inner group, or the fleet?

 

“If you say it’s okay to eat and die, does that mean it’s dangerous?”

 

“You mean this? What you can take depends on your state. It is better for true people to take Naedan or Seondan made from Yeongji Seoncho. It is because the spiritual energy of Honseok or Spiritseok is too strong, and there is a risk of getting into a coin intoxication. But the gains are as great as the risks. It makes me jump over a few steps. There are many people who turn on the light in their eyes when they see Honey Youngseok, Honseok, and Naedan. That’s why the saying ‘it’s okay to eat and die’ came about.”

 

“I see.”

 

Old sim sympathized with the saying, “It’s good to eat and die.”

 

Isn't life a gamble anyway?

 

“I envy you if you were struggling with the issue of the elixir. I wish I would have had such troubles on my stomach.”

 

“If someone gave you an amulet, would you accept it and take that aura?”

 

“You mean this? didn't you just tell me? There are three things that are good even if you eat and die. I think it is a hundred times better to challenge myself to a higher level than to die of old age after living a corrupt life.”

 

Old sim shook his head.

 

In Gangho, he pursued 'the side of living a long and thin life', but if he did that in the clan, he would die fleetingly. In the sect, you have to be thick - you have to raise your level somehow - so you can go long.

 

Geumak Jinin's words gave him a great realization.

 

'If both sides are dangerous anyway, wouldn't it be better to take on a challenge?'

 

At that time, the Jinn camp was noisy.

 

I listened intently to see what was going on, and the Grand Master returned.

 

Shimtong face hardened.

 

The moment he decided to do something he had told him not to do, he came back.

 

I don't know what kind of fate this is again.

 

Shimtong looked up at the blue sky and muttered inwardly.

 

‘Creator God, if you really exist, please tell me something. Should I take the Arcanum? Should I not?'

 

Shimtong waited patiently for an answer, but heard no answer.

 

“So it is. shit."

 

At the sudden grumble of Shimtong, the Golden Evil Jinin turned his head slightly.

 

“Why is something else going on?”

 

“Oh, no. It reminded me of a person who pretends to do everything but doesn’t do anything.”

 

“That tsk tsk! Get rid of such a person immediately.”

 

Shimtong looked up blankly at the passing clouds.

 

The rest enjoyed before the army of demons was sweeter than honey.

 

Will the absorption of aura become a shortcut to ruin? Or will it be the prelude to a great reversal in life?

 

‘God of creation, help me just once, no more, no less. Then I will never forget that grace.'

 

Shimtong clung to the creator god whom I had resented a moment ago.

 

It is because he has no other person to rely on and discuss with because he is hiding it from his rival.

 

 

 

***

 

 

 

It was thanks to the tent that the dark Yeonjeokha found the campsite of the Cheonjijong and Taesangjong.

 

If it hadn't been for the tents erected in an orderly manner in an empty field, I would have had a hard time finding them.

 

The Yeonjeokha, who was flying by fortune-telling, found a familiar tent and sat down slowly.

 

Around him, masters of the Cheonji sect and the Taisang sect slowly gathered.

 

When Yeon Jeok-ha exchanged his regards with them, the grain mill union came running in a hurry.

 

“Daejangdaejangnim, Kwang Myeong-jin Heaven is looking for you.”

 

However, despite the message from the Gokbunjo union, he continued to talk with the Venerable Jinpyo of Taesangjong.

 

“How are the other sects?”

 

Venerable Jinpyo glanced at the Gokbunjo union and replied.

 

“It seems there is nothing wrong with the north.”

 

With Hansanju at the center, Sabeolju, Hwangcheonju, and Ungcheonju are to the north.

 

Gobeomcheonwang, Ushas Kinshasa, and three species (Gwangyeomjong, Bloodjujong, and Beopyojong) were on the defense, so they were rather overwhelming the forces of the Demon King, the Sonjama.

 

“The South is the problem.”

 

“South?”

 

Yeonjeokha frowned.

 

In the south, Mujinju, Wansanju, and Suyakju are areas where Majo and Bukdu God are helping.

 

Even with two monarchs, it seems that one of the feudal lords (Barmas the Blood Lion) could not be stopped.

 

However, the words of the Venerable Jinpyo were a little different.

 

“I heard that Mazu and the North Star are not able to respond effectively because they do not agree.”

 

“No, do you mean that the two monarchs are fighting in front of the feudal lord?”

 

“As a result, that is what happened.”

 

“No, even if the two of you fight hand in hand, why would you do that?”

 

“This is just a rumor… … . May I tell you?”

 

“What is it? I'll cover it up so I can hear it, so tell me.”

 

“It seems that the North Star was disrespectful to Majo at the banquet held to welcome the two monarchs.”

 

“Fighting before a war because of rudeness? What a big mistake you made?”

 

“God of the North Star asked Mazo to sleep together… … . Hum, of course he must have been drunk.”

 

“Are you crazy?”

 

At Yeonjeokha's words, Venerable Jinpyo slapped his hand with a white face.

 

“Mi, you’re crazy. no. It can't be. Please refrain from such blasphemous words... … . Originally, when you are drunk, you can say something, isn’t it?”

 

The Venerable Jinpyo was afraid that the conversation between himself and the Great Master would reach the ears of the North Star Goddess.
