Chapter 705 -Elyos' fundamentalism is radical
Of the nine gates of the Savior, the heavenly gate is very special.
It was the door to the world of true Zen and proof of the special relationship between the creator god and the sect.
As the years passed, the value of the former faded.
Since no one was able to open the Gate of Heaven, the Gate of Heaven became obsolete.
But still, there is one thing that hasn't changed.
That is, the god of creation entrusted the management of the gate to the world of true Zen to the religious sect.
Although he couldn't open it, his role as administrator remained.
Jongmoon willingly fulfilled the role.
They had no doubt that it was their mission.
It was obviously like that until the massive invasion of Macheon.
Today, the forces of Macheon were difficult to stop with the power of the nine schools and some gods.
As Gwangmyeong-Jincheon said, there was no hope without the intervention of Heaven.
When the heavens intervene in earnest, the 'primeval war' will break out in Kuju.
Even if Heaven wins somehow, it is obvious that enormous sacrifices will follow.
That is why Gwangmyeong-Jincheon mentioned astronomy as a reward for intervening in the war.
Gwangmyeong Jincheon's request made his servants reconsider astronomy.
The Venerable Gwangseong of the Tianluo sect identified the sect and the heavenly gate.
To him, the words of Gwangmyeong Jincheon were stamped on his foot by the ax he believed in.
But not everyone is like that.
For example, the Venerable Jinpyo of Taesangjong sympathized with Gwangmyeongjincheon's claim to some extent.
The gate of heaven attracts demons from the heavens.
Considering the eternal peace of the Savior, sending them to heaven was a good way to go.
So when the Venerable Kwangseong looked at it with eyes seeking consent, he did not respond.
He rather carefully expressed his opinion.
“Daejongssi, Jongmoon has lived by claiming to be the administrator of the Astronomical Gate. Please note that I am an administrator. The master of the heavenly gate is not the sect. The owner of the astronomy is only one Creator God.”
Yeonjeokha looked at the Venerable Jinpyo with a sullen face.
Seeing as he emphasized that he was a manager, not an owner, I knew what he was thinking.
“So?”
“If the heavens say they will take care of it, I don’t think it would be a bad idea to hand it over to them.”
“In what way?”
“As you know, demons and demons in the heavenly world worship heavenly gates. Seeing the Astronomical Gate and dying is the purpose of life. If there is a heavenly gate in Kuju, the demonic heaven will continue to invade like now.”
“Then let’s leave the gates of heaven to the heavens?”
“It sounds strange, but it is. Heaven is the only force that can compete with Macheon. To be honest, our sect has had the Astronomical Gate for hundreds of thousands of years, but it was just a symbol. Even if I hand it over to heaven anyway, it won't mean anything more than that.”
A light commotion broke out among the masters of the sect.
The members of the Chun-roi sect criticized the Taesang sect members who sympathized with the words of the Venerable Jinpyo.
As the commotion grew longer, Venerable Guangcheng raised his hand.
When the Chun Lai sect's gentlemen kept their mouths shut, the Taesang sect's followers also stopped criticizing.
No matter how different the sects are, it is impossible to go against the instructions of the sect.
“Daejongssi, it is true that the Astronomical Gate is in a state of insignificance, but that does not mean that it should not be sent to the Heavenly World. The holy relics of the clan were destroyed in one day. However, if the Heavenly Gate is passed over to the Heavenly Gate, the Jongmun will become nothing. Astronomy is not just a symbol. Astronomy is also the history of the sects related to the origins of the nine sects. Handing over human history to the Elyos? Humans are the most fragile beings in this world. Nevertheless, wasn't it because of the holy relics and the heavenly gate that we were able to give strength to the neck? Now that the Holy Relic has been destroyed, even after passing the Astronomical Gate, humans have nothing more to offer. This means that you have to live while being hit by the demons and being ignored by the Elyos.”
Then the Venerable Jinpyo walked away.
“Are you willing to lay down your life for your pride?”
“If so, the venerable Jinpyo told the Elyos to remove the liver and gallbladder, are you saying? Are you saying you want to give up the sacred mission passed down from your ancestors? With what face do you want to see the ancestors when you die!”
When the argument between the two was about to turn into an emotional fight, Yeonjeokha stopped it.
“I’ll just go there.”
When Grand Master Yeon Jeok-ha made an uncomfortable face, everyone fell silent.
“The Song Union.”
"yes."
“Since there is a heaven gate for each school gate, let other schools know about the meaning of Gwangmyeongjincheon and ask if it is okay. I need to start by gathering the opinions of the sects about astronomy.”
“Shall we send someone to the Light Flame Bell and the Buddhist Bell?”
The Gokbunjo union looked at Yeonjeokha's complexion.
Since the Gwangyeomjong and the Beopyojong had not yet recognized Yeonjeokha as a great master, there was a high possibility that they would come out unresponsive.
"send. Demonic spirits have crossed the Cheonguan Mountains. Will you be safe as Ungcheonju? Moreover, it is Gwangmyeong-Jincheon’s job, so whether you like it or not, I will give you an answer.”
“Ah, yes.”
The Gokbunjo union nodded.
Since it was promoted by Gwangmyeong Jincheon, not Daejongsa, it seemed like he would give an answer.
The meeting ended with that.
To get things done quickly, the grain mill union left Daejeon.
Venerable Gwangseong, who had not calmed down his emotions until then, asked Yeon Jeok-ha insinuatingly.
“What do you think, Grand Master?”
"What?"
“It means passing the gates of heaven to the heavens.”
Yeonjeokha coldly replied.
“No matter how Gwangmyeongjincheon is, it is a presumptuous request. The creator god entrusted the astronomy to the sect, so why are the Elyos overjoyed?”
Then the complexion of the Venerable Kwangseong brightened.
“This is a wise statement. Even if you are Gwangmyeongjincheon, I don't think you should go against the Creator's will. I have done business with the Elyos before.”
“A deal?”
“There is Yeongji Seoncho, which only grows in Guju. Elyos sometimes get it from the sect. There's a story I heard from them... … . Do you know that?”
“Is that it?”
“It is said that Gwangmyeongjincheonnim was a person who believed in fundamentalism among the Elyos.”
“Fundamentalism?”
“The Elyos have a divine book called the Heavenly Book. If the Savior has holy relics, you can see that there is a heavenly book in heaven.”
"aha!"
“It is said that the story of the Creator and the Elyos is recorded in that Celestial Book. Fundamentalism means to respect the heavenly letter as if it were a creator god.”
“Are you saying that Gwangmyeongjincheon treated the Book of Heaven as if he were a creator god?”
"That's right. He said he was very famous among the Elyos.”
“Does that matter? I saw that the savior’s family also hanged themselves on the holy relic.”
“‘The sect’s holding up sacred relics’ and ‘the fundamentalism of the Elyos’ are completely different. If our clan valued sacred relics, the fundamentalism of the Elyos is radical.”
“Excessive?”
“Do you know if most of the Elyos who lead the ‘Primeval War’ are fundamentalists?”
Venerable Jinpyo, who had been listening quietly from the side, interrupted.
“Master Grandmaster, listen carefully to the words of the Venerable Kwangseong. Venerable Gwangseong, where do you see that Gwangmyeong Jincheon-nim is radical? Should I make up words that he didn't even say he asked for astronomy?”
Yeonjeokha turned his gaze to the Venerable Jinpyo.
“The Venerable Jinpyo.”
"yes?"
“Did you make a deal with the Elyos too?”
"yes."
“Have you met?”
“It is not. Transactions with the outside are mainly handled by Samjeonggak.”
“The Venerable Gwangseong has met the Elyos. He's never met an Elyos, but he's making up words about what he knows?”
"That's it... … . If you look at Gwangmyeongjincheon's usual appearance, isn't it far from extreme? That's what I said.”
“You don’t have an eye for that.”
"yes?"
The Venerable Jinpyo looked at Yeonjeokha with eyes that did not understand why.
He was embarrassed that he suddenly had no discernment.
“In my eyes, Gwangmyeong Jincheon-nim was terrifying. Even now, they casually ask for a heavenly gate. It is also when the school is in danger of turning into a flashlight. Are you saying that Gwangmyeongjin-nim is far from being aggressive?”
"That's it... … . For the sake of the Savior's man... … .”
“Tsk tsk! I thought you had no discernment, but you have no idea. Do you think there is a God in this goddamn world purely dedicated to serving the Savior?”
“Aren’t Gwangmyeongjincheonnim, Ushas Kinshasa, Gobeomcheonwang, Majo, and North Star Goddess like that?”
“Kwangmyeongjincheonnim asked for an astronomy, and Ushas Kinshasa is taking care of the Gwangyeomjong and the Beopyojong. Gobeomcheonwang, Majo, and the Northern Divine Army are also entangled in interests, so they must have jumped in. Are you doing it because you don't know? Or is he pretending not to know?”
Yeonjeokha stared at the Venerable Jinpyo.
Venerable Jinpyo avoided the Grand Master's gaze with a shy face.
Why doesn't he know that he is himself?
By the time he reaches the end of his life, his insight is open and he knows everything he doesn't want to know.
Still, there is a right line.
Gwangmyeongjincheon should not be driven only negatively like the Venerable Gwangseong.
That only made the relationship between Gwangmyeong Jincheon and Daejongsa even more distant.
When the Venerable Jinpyo kept his mouth shut, even the younger Jeokha didn't take it anymore.
Then, suddenly, something came to mind.
“The Venerable Gwangseong.”
"yes."
“When the Venerable Kwangseong thinks, wanting Astronomy is like an Elyos? Or is it like Gwangmyeong Jincheon?”
“I don’t know. But in the past hundreds of thousands of years, the Elyos have never asked for Astronomy.”
"Maybe it's not the will of the Elyos?"
“If you look at the history so far, yes. But those who lead the war are fundamentalists. Even the Elyos would condone it if they wanted to.”
"Sounds like they're real?"
“Wouldn’t that be inevitable in a war situation?”
He frowned.
It was clear that if the ‘Primeval War’ broke out in Guju, it would go according to Gwangmyeong-Jincheon’s will.
'damn! Gwangmyeongjincheon finally strikes candles.’
I thought it would be over if I stopped drinking.
However, the scale of the war grows out of hand, and finally, Gwangmyeongjincheon is coveting the Astronomical Gate.
He had to open the gate of heaven and return to Gangho as soon as possible, but he was caught in the wrong place.
***
oblivion.
After the meeting, Yeonjeokha moved to oblivion with a confused mind.
He is going to see the condition of the shimtong.
Okcheong's labor union, which had been rushing out at the slightest pretense of being popular, was vacant, and oblivion was silent.
Entering the shimtong room, he dragged a chair and placed it next to the bed and sat down.
"oh my! this old man I told you not to be greedy He didn't listen to me, and he looked really good. However Where did you get that precious Arcanum? Could it be that it wasn't stolen? Hagiya, how did you steal the spirit stone? It's fortunate that he didn't die after that."
Yeon Jeok-ha, who had been talking to himself in the air, tilted his head.
To become the owner of the spirit stone, you are at least a gentleman.
As a true man, even if you die and wake up, you cannot steal the Arcanum from you.
That means someone gave it to him.
Who gave the Arcanum to Shen Tong?
First of all, it is not a thunderbolt.
Shen Tong came from the Tianlui sect, but he had no contact with anyone except his teacher, the Yucheng union.
It's not even heaven and earth.
The Cheonji sect is far from the spirit stone because there are no honorable men and nobles.
What remains is the Taesangjong, but they have a more heartbreaking and estranged relationship than the Cheonroejong.
'No matter how much I think about it, there doesn't seem to be anyone at the temple gate who can give the Arcanum Stone.'
Still, if I had to choose one person, I would be suspicious of the grain production union.
He is the top manager of Cheonjijong, so even though he is a union, he has access to Youngseok.
'Did the Gok union present the Arcanum as a bribe?'
However, he said he did not know the source of the Arcanum in shimtong hand.
There was no lie in those words.
Excluding even the most questionable song division unions, there is only one thing left.
Suddenly, the words of Medina Isaela who drank came to mind.
―Be careful with Gwangmyeongjincheon. If the Macheon is a revealed sword, the Elyos are a hidden arrow.
Gwangmyeong Jincheon would have known that there was a serious problem with the aura of shimtong.
Is it really the work of Gwangmyeong Jincheon?
As he recalled the series of events that followed, such as the exchange of fruits from the ‘Tree of Life’ and astronomical observations, and the cost of participating in the war, his doubt gradually turned to certainty.
I heard that the fundamentalism of the Elyos is extreme, but I never thought they would do something like this casually.
