Episode 744
Blood-stained throne (5)
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Zhuo Mu-zi without moving a single inch.
Tak Mu-ja also silently watched Yeon Ho-jeong with his deep eyes.
How much time has passed?
“I didn’t know that Geom-seon, the most senior member of the non-partisan faction and the rise of political factions, would say such a thing.”
Takmuja shrugged his shoulders.
“Didn’t the White Island and the Black Island form an alliance?”
“Is that so.”
“I heard that a disaster is approaching that cannot be handled even if black and white work together. “Wouldn’t it be more beneficial for you to swallow the black sword than for an ambitious person like Yang Chen, who doesn’t know when to draw his sword, to hold and shake the sword?”
“Is it for Baekdo?”
“It’s for the next world. “Of course, if the war ends in victory.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes deepened.
“Aren’t you going to the prosecutor’s office?”
“hmm?”
“The swordsmanship of Shaolin’s powerful shaman. Even if only one of you steps forward, both black and white will gain strength.”
Takmuja smiled.
It was a smile that conveyed bitterness and strange passion.
“If I could have come forward, I would have done so right away.”
“Is there a reason why you can’t come forward?”
“Yes.”
“Do you understand?”
Takmuja laughed bitterly.
“If it were a fact I could have told you, I would have told it to the officer as well.”
He was referring to Seunghyeonjinin, a shaman officer named Jangmun.
“As expected.”
“but.”
The change was instantaneous.
Phew!
A refreshing energy suddenly spread out from Zhuk Muzi’s body.
The energy was truly strange. It was so soft that I couldn’t tell for a moment how much was being released or how dense it was.
‘…!’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes widened.
Hwaaaah.
Although it was tightly packed like a dense cloud, a good energy that was difficult to perceive within it was being pushed out in all directions.
And what filled that space was not the naturally generated peak Qi, but the ultimate Qi accumulated by a human being.
‘big!’
It was rich, natural, huge and dense.
An invisible and intangible energy suddenly spreads around Takmuja! And it spread. It seemed as if the earth was filled with water of just the right temperature, neither cold nor hot.
‘It’s completely different from Seunghyunjin!’
Since the realms and enlightenment are different, of course the truth is also different.
But the difference that Yeon Ho-jeong thought was not that big.
He must have learned martial arts from the same shaman, but other than the unique characteristics of Taoist martial arts, it could not be seen as studying from an alumni in any way.
However, on the other hand, there was a resemblance that made you wonder if they were that similar.
They are so different that you might think they are too much, but they are surprisingly similar. The path to the source is the same, but its depth and vastness defy comparison.
‘water.’
Takmuja said. Okcheong is said to be like water. And it was Takmuja himself who raised him like water.
If Seunghyeonjinin was a dispersing cloud, Takmuja was flowing water.
If Seunghyeonjinin was light and flexible, Takmuja was heavy yet flexible.
If Seunghyeonjinin is in harmony, Takmuja was the one who created harmony himself.
Same yet completely different. Simply feeling prayer brings to mind a vision-like scene.
“The sky sent someone like you to me because I couldn’t move from this place.”
“…?”
“Opening a musical means escaping from the destiny and natural order determined by royalties. That area is that kind of area. It’s not just about getting stronger in martial arts. “Throwing away the human skin through martial arts is the state of ultimate chaos.”
Takmuja smiled.
“That means it is impossible to see into your head even with the power of Tong Heaven. Unlike me.”
“What do you mean?”
“Aren’t you curious about the identity of the good energy accumulated on this peak?”
He suddenly started talking about something else.
But Yeon Ho-jeong had a hunch. The current story is like a path that leads to the story you want to hear.
“That’s right.”
“This peak has no name. “There were so many people who liked to give it a name, but from long ago it was simply called the Unnamed Peak.”
Takmuja shook his head.
“It’s worth it. “I also don’t know what to call this place where Master Sampung, who became one with nature, attained enlightenment in his later years.”
“…!”
Sampoongjinin. Jang Sam-poong.
In Taoism in the Central Plains, there is probably no greater name or more famous name than this.
If it were a place where a person who was the founder of the Shaman sect and reached the pinnacle of Taoism in the world achieved enlightenment in his later years, it would be like a sanctuary in itself.
“This spirit is the energy that the legendary Sampoong Patriarch scattered for shamans after becoming one with Mother Nature.”
“Is that possible?”
“I don’t know. I haven’t even reached that point yet. There is no way not to believe it. “I cannot believe that the owner of this energy, which has mesmerized even the strong of the Heavenly Heavenly Heaven who have reached the state of infinite chaos, is anyone other than Master Sampoong.”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head without realizing it.
“That is why, with its divine power, it even blocks the gaze of evil people who are watching the world.”
“yes?”
“There is someone watching me.”
“Who is it.”
“Tongcheon.”
“Tongcheon?”
“In the world, there are people who are called ‘Kanghosamgi’ and are expert in a certain field. Among them, there is one monster that can predict the future through divination and magic that reaches the sky, and can look into people’s inner minds from thousands of miles away.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes widened.
Tak Mu-ja’s expression was seriousness itself. It’s hard for anyone to believe, but he was sincere.
“You may have heard the name Tongcheonjinin (通天眞人).”
“That’s true, but there is no one-sided approach.”
“He who is close to Yongdu Ark is actually a very dangerous person. With his ability to reach the sky, he helped Yongdu Ark and became a close friend, so even Yongdu Ark, who is said to have dragon eyes, would have no choice but to not know what kind of person Tongcheonjinin is.”
Takmuja laughed.
“Actually, I’m not an ordinary person to the point where I can figure out his true intentions even if we’re not close friends.”
“…Why are you saying he’s dangerous?”
“It’s because I was possessed by the evil way.”
“…?”
“Precisely because he abandoned the path that had reached its peak and served an imaginary ghost full of blood.”
An imaginary ghost full of blood.
Blood and God.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
“Blood God.”
An unexpected light appeared on Zhuo Muzi’s face.
“Did you know?”
“A sect that was the origin of the three religions outside of Saeedeo. “I understand that the god of that sect is the blood god.”
“I don’t know much about the Sae-Oe Samgyo. But the blood god you mentioned is probably correct. “Because the moment Tongcheon kept his eyes on me, I was also able to keep my eyes on him.”
It was something I couldn’t understand at all.
People talk about magical powers and say that a mysterious legend actually exists.
But that was literally just a made-up story. The ability to see something that happened a thousand miles away (with one’s eyes) and hear a whisper from hundreds of miles away could not have existed according to common sense.
As if he had read Yeon Ho-jeong’s thoughts, Tak Mu-ja smiled strangely.
“How are your martial arts skills?”
“yes?”
“With your ability, you can move an object a hundred steps away without touching it. “You cannot fly in the sky, but you can reach the supreme state of walking in the air and run through the air as if you were flying.”
“…!”
“In the eyes of ordinary people, people like you are superhumans themselves. “There are people who can lift objects without touching them and even fly in the sky. Is there any Taoist master who can sense what is happening thousands of miles away from where he is sitting?”
“That is…”
“At the root of the absolute power contained in your body is energy. Depending on how one uses energy, just one person can have the power of a hundred people. And if we put that spirit here.”
Takmuja pointed to his head with his hand.
“They can communicate with ghosts and predict the future. Because it is not a hermit, it is absolutely imperfect, but it is not impossible. “That is the harmony of energy.”
Shock appeared on Yeon Ho-jeong’s face.
And at that moment, there was one person that came to his mind.
‘Kiwoohee.’
She was born with an ability called spiritual vision. Thanks to that ability, one can see the fundamental source of a person.
If that’s not superpower, what is it? What made that superpower possible is that he was born with a huge Dandanjeon, and he sees people with the energy of that Dandanjeon.
“I don’t know when Tongcheonjinin abandoned the Tao and began to worship ghosts. “I guess it hasn’t been that long, but the important thing is that he’s not the same as he used to be.”
“Are you saying he is keeping an eye on Mr. Noh?”
“Yes.”
“You mean that every time Senior Lu makes a move, Tong Tian Jin-in will find out and that information will be leaked to the enemy?”
“Probably not everything. Because both are imperfect. However, the fact that my will and thoughts are reported to the enemy you are talking about… That’s right. “It is extremely possible.”
“Senior Noh said. It is impossible for anyone to observe someone who has reached the ultimate stage. But how can he get a glimpse of Master Noh’s head?”
A bitter expression appeared on Zhuo Muzi’s face again.
“It’s because I was greedy.”
“…?”
“As a Taoist, you should follow the Tao, but you impurely touched the realm of martial arts. “I wanted to gain stronger, higher, more magical abilities.”
“Is that the problem?”
“In my case it was a problem. Since his body could not contain more power, he trained his upper body to enlarge it. “Even though I could not cultivate the divine energy to completely surround the enlarged Dandanjeon, I greedily craved power.”
Takmuja closed his eyes.
“There was a hole in the tight castle wall. “A big hole that can’t be filled.”
“….”
“So Tong Tianjin can see me. “Not everything, though.”
“okay.”
“That is why I stay in this place full of goodness. Since I couldn’t reduce the upper part of the castle once it had enlarged, I tried to fill in the walls by cultivating my divine energy… but that didn’t work out well.”
Even if you open a martial arts drama, people are still people.
In fact, they can become more dangerous than anyone else. If one goes astray, it can become a disaster that cannot be dealt with, and a stagnant state can rise vertically with just one enlightenment.
Those who have risen to the highest level in the world, but see the world from a more unstable position than anyone else.
Those are the masters of martial arts.
‘so.’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes deepened.
‘Is that why it is so?’
Yang Cheon said that among martial arts masters, there would be very few people with common sense.
This could be seen just by looking at Eumje Ha Eungyo and King Amwang Tanghyeong.
If you think about it rationally, there is no way Saeumgyo would have saved his child. No, it was much more likely that there would be no children in the Saeum Church in the first place.
Nevertheless, Ha Eungyo said that he would visit Saeumgyo even if he had to die. Although it was of no benefit, I ended up going alone to repent for my sins.
What is the sugar type like?
Even in the midst of a crisis that turned the entire family upside down, he did not move.
Are you stubborn? Of course, that is also true. However, they were caught up in a certain memory and realization and could not escape from it until they achieved another enlightenment.
Supreme but unstable. Although he gained strength similar to that of a monster, his spirit did not gain the strength to match.
Non-polar is such an area. Since the body has been completed, it relies on the Dandanjeon, which has room for change, and depending on how the energy of the Dandanjeon is used, it may perform actions that are difficult to understand from common sense.
If you do not constantly reflect on yourself, you will become a monster with a human body.
“I said everything I needed to say. At least that’s true when it comes to you and me.”
“…okay.”
“No, there’s one more left.”
“…?”
“I spoke about Tong Tian Jin-in. And although he is not at Tong Tian Jin-in’s feet, there is one disciple whom he has raised.”
“You mean disciple?”
“Yes, disciple.”
Takmuja closed his eyes.
“That disciple is now in the imperial palace.”
