Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 649 A story from the reign (24)

Seoryang entered the huge bamboo forest and looked around.

“It’s still the same.”

Old bamboo forest.

It is the most sacred site of the Heavenly Demon Church and is also the place where the beginning of the Church of God was announced.

There was a faint sorrow in Seo-ryang’s eyes.

“I remember that time.”

When I first entered Gojuk Forest.

How immature and foolish I was back then.

It was a time when his abilities and survival instincts were exceptional, but he did not know much about the world.

It was not simply about having more experience or knowing the world. To know the world, you must first know yourself. At that time, Seolyang, who had not been able to find her true identity, was no different from a three-year-old child who was strong and experienced.

Seoliang entered the Gojuk Forest.

Slurp.

The popularity of noble people was felt everywhere.

None of the nobles could approach Seoryang. But surprisingly, they didn’t scatter in surprise.

I just looked at Seoliang with infinitely calm eyes from an invisible place.

Sabagsabag.

The feel of the bamboo leaves under my feet felt very good.

In this way, Seoliang entered the secret area of Gojuk Forest in one go.

The deeper you go, the more dangerous treasures pop out. However, just like on the outside, the more dangerous and ferocious nobles also hid and only watched Seoryang, neither approaching nor running away.

“It’s a really nice place.”

Xu Liang smiled and looked around.

“There is still plenty of spiritual energy and the temperature is just right.”

There seemed to be no better place to retire and spend one’s golden years, except for the presence of nobles who could kill even a decent martial arts expert with a single blow.

Of course, no one would be able to spend their golden years here. Even because of its symbolism as the most sacred place in Protestantism, people could not be allowed to live here.

And Seoryang also stopped by occasionally, but had no intention of living here.

“If you think about it, I am also me. I spent eight months in this place. “What would have happened if Dongpil wasn’t there?”

Memories came to mind one by one. At that time, each day was a series of life-threatening moments, but as they passed, they became memories.

“It was good nourishment.”

Wooooow.

At one point, there was a faint vibration in Seo-ryang’s body. It was a vibration coming from deep inside my chest.

And after half an angle more.

Crumble.

The golden fox that was lying down raised its head and flicked its tail.

Xu Liang smiled.

“It’s been a while, Geumho.”

Slurp.

Geum-ho got up from his seat, approached Seo-ryang, and rubbed his head against his chest.

It was my first time meeting Geumho in three years. However, even after three years had passed, there was no awkwardness between the demon god and the demon god.

“How are you, you guy?”

Seoliang stroked Geumho’s head.

“Kuuuuu!”

Geumho made a strange sound. Seoryang could feel in his heart that it was an expression of welcome.

Seoyang slumped down in his seat.

Geumho, who had been wandering around him, fell down right next to Seoryang. The abundant tail wrapped halfway around Seoryang’s body.

It was warm.

“I think you’ve eaten a lot of delicious food here. “I just brought some alcohol for myself.”

Xi Liang took a sip of the six thousand heart wine.

“Kya! It’s definitely good. When I see things like this, I feel like Master is truly amazing. “There really was nothing he couldn’t do in many areas.”

Seoyang put down the bottle and lay down diagonally.

The fur was so fluffy. It felt more comfortable than the bed at home.

Seoyang, who was lying down at an angle and looking up at the sky, opened his mouth.

“Kumho.”

Geumho looked at Seoliang with deep eyes.

“I’ve been thinking about it. “I am a very lucky person.”

His eyes deepened.

“We haven’t opened the door to deification yet, but I feel like we’re at this point now. The reason I was able to reach this level. And what the world wanted from me.”

If you think about it, as he said, it is difficult to find someone who has received help from as many people as Seo-ryang.

I had to go through some truly hellish things to get to this point. But looking back, there were always people around him who helped him.

Of course, it may also have been thanks to Seoryang’s mental power and sense of purpose, who used his daily experiences as his nourishment. Perhaps, I didn’t know that Seoryang himself had made the personal clothes.

Whatever the reason, he could be seen as being indebted to many people.

“When I first met Sword King Noh Seon-bae, would I have been able to reach this level if I hadn’t mixed swords with that nobleman?”

The corners of Seo-ryang’s mouth rose.

“What if I didn’t have to share life and death with that nobleman, Song Geum-baek? What if I had not been given the enlightenment of Buddhism and shamanism, which was in line with Jeoksong Noh Seon-bae? What if there was no meeting with Master? And what if there wasn’t all the fighting in the midfield?”

He looked into Geumho’s eyes.

“If I hadn’t met you and if I hadn’t taken the core of Gojuklim, which was originally yours, would I really be where I am today?”

Geumho had no answer. I just looked at Seoryang with those mysterious eyes.

Seoliang scratched Geumho’s chin.

Geumho closed his eyes and stuck his chin out further.

“I thought about it. “About the dark energy.”

Cheonsalam Yeongjingyeol.

It is a rare new technique created by collecting the secret techniques of the old school martial arts, and unlike the martial arts of Buddhism or Taoism, it was a martial art like the shadow of the right school martial arts that was thoroughly focused on killing methods.

“Dam Sa-young said that. It was said that I was the only one who learned the secret technique properly. “I was the only one who could learn this amazingly excellent season and still maintain a healthy mind and body.”

Xu Liang smiled.

“Probably Master also knew. “The characteristics of dark energy.”

The stars that were twinkling as if they were about to fall seemed to emit a clearer light for a moment.

“It is nothing compared to the reigning Demon Emperor, but the Shadow Spirit is also a martial art that lives and moves on its own. This is not something that can be realized by looking at precepts or teachings. “If I hadn’t reached this level, I wouldn’t have known.”

Xiliang sighed.

“An energy that specializes only in killing people. Originally, energy changes its nature depending on human intentions, but sometimes there are situations where the subject and the object are reversed. In that respect, it is a martial art that no one can learn unless human spiritual power is specialized in death itself.”

So to speak, Xu Liang was a born assassin.

It is literally the god of death. Seo-ryang, or rather Cheon Ha-jin, demonstrated greater ability than anyone else in killing people, and surprisingly, it was not because of the dark spirit.

He was good at making any martial arts his own. And once he had mastered it as his own, the martial art would become a rare killing skill and would transform into an extreme killing technique.

It’s not because he has a lot of experience or because he was a former assassin.

This was because before his talent, his soul was closer to death than anyone else.

From the beginning, he had no choice but to become an assassin, and at the same time, if he had not learned the secret technique, he would have become an unstoppable killing star and turned the central world upside down.

In other words, it was not the experience he had and the martial arts he learned that made him the king of life. It means that because he was born that way, he lived that kind of life because he showed differences from ordinary people in the realm of the soul.

“and.”

Phew!

A white flame burned in Xu Liang’s left hand.

It was a pure white flame that completely contrasted with the reigning Demon Emperor. That flame, without any blemishes, was the flame of Gu Yuma Gong, created by himself.

The five forms of Gu Yumagong. The final gate of hell.

It was the extreme white dragon annihilation fire of Gu Yuma Fire that only those who entered the Ascension to Heaven ceremony could use.

“It’s the same as Master.”

Gudaecheonma Lee Cheon-sang.

His desire was so burning that it covered the world and even shook the past, present and future.

The sky could not bear to see this world like that. So he tempted him, and Lee Cheon-sang, who was still human, could not resist Heaven’s temptation.

So Lee Cheon-sang became a god. After becoming a god, he was able to resist heaven as a human.

In other words, Lee Cheon-sang was desire itself. He was born with desire, resisted heaven with the power of desire, and was able to die as a human thanks to desire.

So what about Seoliang?

“I am death.”

He was a being who should not have been born into this world, born from death, growing into death, and eventually burning his own life.

At least Seo-ryang himself felt that way. Although this is not a true myth, we cannot be sure, but he could not deny that he too was a being who had gone astray from the very beginning.

“But after meeting Master, I was able to change my fundamentals.”

Perhaps Lee Cheon-sang saw it. your own essence.

When you first set foot in Panmajeong, you would have immediately realized that you were a being that should not go out into the world.

So I changed myself. Although he was born with death in his arms, he somehow completely changed his roots of running away to escape death.

To become a demon god, not a death god.

A genius warrior who has the potential to become a demon god based on his ultimate talent and rise to the top of the world.

“Just as I received help from many people, I was able to be where I am today thanks to them. “Even if we repay for a thousand years, even if we repay for eons, will we be able to repay all this grace?”

Slurp.

The flame of the white dragon annihilation disappeared.

The dark spirit mixed with true magic and lost the desire to kill. This was the reason why Ma Dong-pil was able to learn Guyumagong.

Xu Liang closed his eyes.

“…Well, what’s the use of considering that now? “What’s important is the present and the future.”

But he knew. Now, you are becoming a being who can handle even the past at will.

I know that the state where I can see the three lives with my own eyes like the great Nine Heavenly Demons like that Master is not far away.

That sooner or later he too will reach the entrance to the abyss.

And I knew that I would be worried at the entrance to the abyss.

‘It’s an abyss myth.’

Seoyang, who had closed his eyes and was lost in thought, opened his eyes again.

“Hey! What does all that mean? “I’m finally starting to feel the fun of living in this world, so what’s wrong with Shin Hwa-kyung?”

Seoliang, who had emptied a bottle of Six Thousand Heart Juice in one go, stroked Geumho’s head.

“Hey! Even if my past hardships are unfair, I will live for another hundred years! “I will enjoy everything I can enjoy in this world, do everything I can for my children, and then leave!”

“Kuuuuu.”

“Until then, stay right next to me even if you’re bored! Do you understand? Don’t get into unnecessary accidents! “Don’t just stay here and sleep because you like the bamboo forest!”

「Crumbling.」

“Huh? no? Still not possible. Come with me to the Demon God’s Palace a little later. “You should also breathe in the outside air, right?”

“ 꾸 우. ‘

‘

He looked up at the sky.

“Kya! “The moonlight is nice!”
