Chapter 1212 – 1212. Map of Ascension
“Use rumors. The roots of Baeksangeumga are the Baeksanmun Gate. Rumors will spread that there are Baeksanmun’s martial arts and laws in Baeksan.”
“Would the Baeksan-geum family believe it even if they leaked such rumors?”
“At that rumor, the Heavenly Demonic Church is the first to move.”
“…… Indeed. There is a possibility. If the Heavenly Demon God moves, the Heavenly Council will also move. Even if the rumors are fake, you don’t want the treasure to be passed on to your enemies. And if you move up to the Heaven’s Armed Forces… The Baeksan Gold House will move on the thought that they don’t know.”
“I lead the troops of the Heavenly Demonic Church, the Heavenly Alliance, and the Baeksan Gold Family to Baeksan. There….”
“It’s using human greed to cause a battle. Once a large amount of blood flows… The Baeksan Gold Family will no longer be able to maintain neutrality.”
“It’s best to start with the CheonuiMeng, but… It won’t work out as well as you think.”
“To begin this plan, human greed must be clearly aroused. Could it be possible only through rumors?”
“I do that. No. 366. I want you to spread the rumor. Numbers 567 and 290 stand by.”
“Are you not reporting to Protestantism?”
290, Seomun So-ryeo asked.
“Number 151 was an agent of the Cheonui-Meng. I don’t think there is only one spy of the Heavenly Alliance in Shingo.”
“… What if I didn’t report it and something went wrong?”
“I will take all responsibility.”
Chun Yuun said firmly.
He is the son and successor of the current Cheonma, Cheon Youun. If he does, he won’t be punished for simply failing to report.
“No. 123.”
Jegal contradiction called me.
“What? Is there anything I should do?”
“I want you to help spread the rumor.”
“If I go out and spread rumors, I will arouse suspicion. The credibility of rumors will also decrease.”
“Rumors will spread from outside Baeksan Fortress. Number 123, please do your best to spread rumors by pretending to be a coincidence.”
“…… In what way?”
“I will tell you the time and place later. You can take the gatekeepers of Doyangmun there. Don’t do anything there. Rumors will be spread by the gatekeepers.”
“I get it.”
A plan based on rumors.
It was pretty plausible. It would be a bit difficult if this was modern, but this place was not modern. It was a world in which wars between clans were common because of rumors.
•••
Four days have passed.
The plan to spread rumors worked.
The entire Baeksanseong Fortress was buzzing with stories of Baeksan’s treasures. If you went right into any inn and listened, you could hear the rumors.
“Hey, did you hear that there is a treasure in Baeksan? From what I hear, it’s the magic tool of Baeksanmun Gate.”
“I heard you. Everyone was talking about it.”
“What do you think?”
“Dog sound. It’s a bullshit that someone said out of boredom. It has been more than 500 years since Baeksanmun Gate disappeared. Now comes the treasure? It’s an unreliable word. Above all, it is not known what kind of treasure it is.”
“Tsk tsk. It seems you haven’t heard the rumors yet.”
“What rumors? Are there more rumors I don’t know about?”
“The treasure of Baeksanmun Gate. Its exact identity has been revealed. A woman who came back alive from Baeksan said she saw the treasure.”
“…… What kind of treasure is it?”
“The rumors are bullshit. What are you trying to do after hearing fake rumors? You want to talk to your dog?”
“Wow, are you going to embarrass people?”
“Hmm. Do you know how many times I’ve told you that story today? I’m so thirsty I don’t feel like talking.”
“Jumsoy! Bring me a bottle of bamboo leaf syrup! So, are you okay? Now tell me. What treasure is it?”
“Woo-in-bong.”
“Woo-in-bong? What is it? Is it a wooden stick?”
“Uh huh. It’s no ordinary wooden stick. If you hold a wooden seal and swing it, the tip will extend, and if you strike the ground with the wooden seal, a tree will rise from the ground. They say it’s the magic tool of Baeksanmun.”
“It’s a law… Treasures with mystical powers. Are you saying that the treasure of Baeksanmun is in Baeksan? ?”
“Isn’t that why the ronin are in a frenzy right now? They are eager to climb Mt. Baek and obtain the Mok-in-bong. And there are rumors like this. Moginbong has the secret season of Baeksanmun.”
“The rumors are specific. Are the rumors really true… ?”
“This person has so many doubts.”
“Think about it too. If the rumors are true, isn’t it strange that the Baeksan Gold Family stays still?”
“I heard something from my nephew during the day, and he said that even though the Baeksan-geum family looked fine, there was a stir inside. How bloody the atmosphere is… My nephew said he ran away as soon as he finished his work because it was difficult to breathe.”
“The atmosphere of the Baeksan Gold House is so serious… ? Rumor… Is it real… ?”
“The rumors are true. My intuition is telling me. And this is just a rumor I’ve heard….”
“… Why do you often hear rumors? What’s the secret?”
“What kind of connections are there?”
“Well. Drink a cup of bamboo leaf syrup and tell me. What rumors?”
“There are rumors that the Cheonma Shinkyo and Cheonui Meng are preparing to climb Baeksan Mountain to find Mokinbong.”
“Ohh. Are you thinking of finding Mokinbong and giving it to Baeksangeum? Then you’ll win the favor of the Baeksan Gold Family, so that’s a very good idea.”
“Hey, are you sick?”
“Hmm? What kind of nonsense is that all of a sudden!”
“Oh, sorry. Hearing the absurd words, I didn’t know…. Mok-in-bong is a horse. It is known as an advanced level among the Dharma tools. That high-level magic skill is more precious than a lot of small and medium-sized families. What if the Cheonma Deity or the Cheonui Meng get the Mokjinbong? I will give up Baeksan Castle in exchange for giving it to the Baeksan Gold Family. Because wooden seals are worth that much.”
“Woe. Aren’t the Heavenly Demon Goddess and the Heavenly Council afraid of the Baeksan family?”
“You are a native of Baeksanseong, so you don’t know anything. Baeksan Fortress is the only place where the Baeksangeum family can lean on their shoulders. Going out of Baeksanseong? I have to crawl on the tongue while watching the eyes of the Heavenly Demonic Church and the Heavenly Council. That is the reality.”
“Ha. I just feel weird….”
“Still, this is Baeksanseong Fortress. It is the realm of the Baeksan gold family. Baeksan Gold Family won’t stand still. No one has gotten their hands on the treasure, so let’s wait with anticipation. Has Baeksan Gold Family ever let us down?”
“No. No cancer.”
Rumors were spreading throughout Baeksanseong in this way.
‘Mok-in-bong. That’s the real Baeksanmun Dharma. That’s why Baeksan Gold Family is flustered. It’s because the name and ability of the magic technique that only the Baeksan Gold family knows about is spreading.’
The Baeksan Gold Family is currently trying to find out who spread the information inside.
‘They can’t find the culprit, so they’ll think the rumors might be true.’
The moment a little credibility is created, Baeksan Gold has no choice but to step out. He would rather die than lose his ancestors’ treasure to the Heavenly Meng and the Heavenly Demon Faith.
‘Cheon Yoo-woon. You did a good job spreading rumors using your original knowledge.’
Note that there is no wooden seal. It was broken hundreds of years ago.
•••
The next morning, the Cheonma Shinkyo gathered their troops and moved toward Baeksan. It was the result of Cheon Yu-woon’s influence.
A few hours later, the Cheonui-maeng hurriedly formed an army and headed for Baeksan following the Cheonma Shinkyo.
Baeksangeumga went to war later than Cheonuimaeng.
I pretended to join the Heavenly Demon Church, but then turned the other way.
‘Chun Yuun’s purpose is to obtain the secret medicine hidden in Baeksan Mountain. I’ll take it away.’
He was prepared to steal the elixir even if he unlocked the ban. It was because the elixir that could be obtained here was quite precious. Also, taking away the elixir can hinder Chun Yuun’s growth.
Climb Baeksan
As the name suggests, it was a white mountain. It’s not white because it’s snowing, but the trees and soil are pure white. I don’t know what caused it. It wasn’t even revealed. In the original story, Cheon Yu-Woon speculates about the tone. It wasn’t particularly important.
‘There he is.’
I checked the location of Cheon Yuun with the Cheonan. Chun Yuun did not notice that I was following him.
‘The moment Chun Yu-wun gets the elixir, he’ll hit you in the back.’
I decided to lift the restraint requested by Mi-ryung.
I stopped walking and closed my eyes. Enters his self-contemplation. I could feel the magic blocking my short circuit and qi and blood. The technique consists of water energy and wooden energy. Mi-ryung deliberately used the energy of water and trees to restrain me. The reason was simple.
‘It’s because brain qi is strong in water and wood qi.’
Cause cerebral palsy According to my will, Brain Ki burned the magic and got rid of the taboo.
I felt my body lighten. It was as if a lump of baggage weighing hundreds of kilograms had been put down.
‘Let’s go.’
I prepared an illusionist. For a perfect surprise, he made his body invisible and followed Chun Yu-un. Chun Yuun went back and forth, and he did a good job finding the way. He found a gap between the white tree and the rock and walked slowly in.
I also followed him.
A huge hollow came out, and there was a big white tree in it. Instead of leaves, white hair grew on the white branches.
White-Haired Demon Tree. Rather than a monster, it was a creature closer to a spirit beast.
Chen Yuun drew his sword from his waist and charged at the gray-haired ghost neck. Chun Yu-Woon used the Chunma Shin Gong in earnest.
‘Is it because of the difference in realm? The Heavenly Demon Sacred Art doesn’t look like much.’
After 5 minutes of intense fighting, Cheon Yu-woon stabbed the white-headed demon’s core and knocked it down. The white haired ghost’s body cracked and began to crumble.
‘White-haired ghosts bloom after they die.’
The body of the white-haired ghost tree parted and a beautiful white flower bloomed.
White Yanghwa. It was the elixir of elixirs.
“… I finally got it… !”
Chun Yu-Wun is delighted and reaches out to the Baekyanghwa. I prepared to strike Chun Yu-wun in the back. In one surprise attack, he stuns Chun Youun and steals Yanghua. It was my perfect plan.
Variables happened before the plan was executed.
One step ahead of me, someone hiding behind a rock appeared and kicked Cheon Yu-un, knocking him out, and taking the Baek Yang-hwa.
‘What the fuck!’
He immediately jumped out and swung his sword at someone unknown. The enemy stepped on foot and lightly avoided my attack. I frowned. The enemy’s identity was unknown. Something like a black shadow wrapped around the enemy’s body. His face is natural and even his physique is not visible.
‘Unarmed? How to drink? Law? Either way it’s nothing out of the ordinary. My heavenly eye doesn’t work.’
The shadow stared at me from a distance. It’s like watching me.
“Who are you?”
A distorted voice echoed from the shadow’s mouth.
“Your voice sucks. Make an appearance.”
“… I don’t think that’s what you meant?”
My voice was that of Chun Yuun. If he covered his body with a dark shadow, I made his body transparent with an illusionist.
I ran into the shadow, eliminating as much presence as possible. The shadow reacted immediately. Just like I see
‘The response is a little late. It’s not what I see, is it because I feel good? In an instant.’
Thunderstorm. Thunderstorm.
Hwaryeonbido aims at the neck of the shadow with red thunderbolts on the blade. The shadow raised its sword and deflected my attack. The repulsive force sent me and the shadow back at the same time.
“It’s the first swordsmanship I’ve ever seen. Who are you.”
The shadows chatter and set their posture.
“The first swordsmanship? That is what I will do.”
I am also Youngcheon-ryu. No, now I was breathing quietly, taking the posture of a thunderstorm. An electric current was mixed in the exhaled breath. Paper weave. Red lightning wraps around my body. In the eyes of the shadows, I will be seen as red lightning.
Thunderstorm gale trust.
Take a step forward I quickly closed the distance and swung the sword at the shadow. The shadow hesitated as if surprised, then lowered its upper body and swung the sword. I felt pure demonic energy in his sword.
‘It’s like Cheon Yu-un’s… !’
Divide the sword The shadow calmly parried all my attacks. I also wounded the shadows, but not fatally.
Knock out, knock out….
The red lightning is consumed by his demonic energy and disappears. His Demonic Gong and Thunderstorm didn’t go well together. I clicked my tongue. My skills are not enough to counter that demon. Precisely, there is a lack of understanding of cerebral perforation.
Puck!
The shadow’s fist hit me in the stomach. Unable to defend myself, I was hit by a fist and flew backwards, crashing into the wall.
“… I knew roughly about your swordsmanship. I admit that it is a great swordsmanship. But that’s it. After all, I am stronger than you.”
Keying.
The illusionist made a short noise and turned off. The duration has run out. My face was revealed. Bare face was revealed. It was a mistake not to wear a mask because it was cumbersome. … I didn’t even know that a guy like that would appear.
The shadow peered into my face.
“… I have no idea. Who are you?”
“I… It is a corner.”
He wiped the blood that flowed from his mouth with the back of his hand.
“Yeom corner? Ha, that’s funny Yeom Guseok looks a little more stupid than you.”
“…….”
The shadow knew about the salt corner.
“Well, okay. I will slowly find out your true identity later. I don’t have time right now… I won’t kill you for now.”
Black demonic energy rises from the body of the shadow. Looking at it now, I was sure.
“Heavenly Demon Goddess….”
“He’s got a good eye.”
Magi gathers with the Sword of Shadows.
“Tsk. Dogs and cows are all heavenly demon gods.”
“What?”
Heavenly Demonic Spirit (天魔神功).
I activated the Heavenly Demon Sacred Art. Dark Magi wraps around my body. Like the shadow, I also gathered demonic energy on the sword.
The shadow paused in shock.
“Heavenly Demon Goddess… ?”
“Do you have eyes to see?”
He threw his fist at the surprised man.
Heavenly Demon God Dragon Fist.
