Episode 963Flames covering the sky (3)

The emperor, who was quietly looking at Ki Cheon-woong, suddenly spoke.

“Please explain.”

From the first meeting until now, the emperor is the master of a country and has spoken as if he were a person with absolute power and treated his subjects.

Surprisingly, Gi Cheon-woong did not show any signs of displeasure at the emperor’s words. If it was special, it was special.

Grumbling.

Blue flames flickered again from the drinking glass that Ki Cheon-woong was holding.

It was a mysterious sight. The drinking cup itself was not usually made of porcelain.

There was no alcohol in it, but the fire was burning.

‘A strange object.’

At a glance, Gok-gyeong could tell that the drinking glass was a rare item in the world.

“Originally, Gwangsehyeolgyo was supported by three noble families. These are Gwanghyeol and Shinhwa Saeum. “We who served the blood god were each called the Maga family.”

“….”

“The circumstances were endless, but in the end, our three noble families established their own religions and split apart. “Each family has received the three characteristics that symbolize the ancient blood god.”

“What is it?”

“Expansion of Destruction and Purification.”

“…?”

“Light blood means destruction. It is the image of an angry blood god itself. Although it has now been completely erased and remains only as a scripture that is difficult to open, the blood god’s anger described in that scripture turns the world red with blood flowing backwards. In his right hand he held a huge spear made of blood.”

“….”

“Myth means purification. “In the left hand of the blood god who destroyed the world with his outpouring of anger…”

Gi Cheon-woong raised his drink. S~eaʀᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“This very Holy Grail is in the air. Burn the world with the blue flame that comes from the Holy Grail and evaporate all the dirty blood. That is the ability that represents the purification mythology maga.”

“Then what about expansion?”

“Fornication.”

“….”

“Expansion means spreading the clones who carry on one’s blood throughout the world to create the masters of a new world. Only those who inherit the blood of the Blood God can live in a clean world. Therefore, Saeumma and Saeumgyo encourage promiscuity through large festivals.”

“There is no such thing as an animal.”

“It wasn’t like that in the beginning. The expansion was only a symbol of the Saeum Maga, and the true blood lies with the blood religion’s original lineage. Rather, Saeum Maga was a place where people were forced to lead a stricter lifestyle than anyone else in order to spread the myth of expansion to future generations.”

Gi Cheon-woong smiled bitterly.

“I wonder if anyone cares about such things these days.”

the emperor asked.

“So what does the history of blood religion have to do with your coming to Jungwon?”

“I don’t know about light blood and evil spirits, but mythology thoroughly reveres power. There is no need for age or social status. This is a school where only the strong can rise to the top. “Except for the Ki bloodline.”

“….”

“Our school, which was burning for stronger power, crossed the line at some point.”

“line?”

“The border has collapsed. If you want to gain more power, you will go against the laws of heaven. “Parents started eating their children, and the children started pulling out their parents’ hearts.”

The emperor did not know what parable was meant by those words.

Ki Cheon-woong’s explanation continued.

“Fires just merge into one and become a bigger fire. Our martial arts skills are the same. “For our martial arts like origin, the more we eat our opponents, the more powerful we gain and the ability to control firepower.”

“…Do you mean to eat it?”

“It sucks the life out of you.”

Gok-gyeong muttered without realizing it.

“Sahupgong (死吸功)?”

Gi Cheon-woong looked at Gok-gyeong with strange eyes.

“How do you know about Sa-Hyeok-Gong?”

Gokjing looked at the emperor.

The emperor nodded slightly. Conversation was permitted.

Gok-gyeong informed him that some kind of organization had unleashed Sa-hyeok-gong on several successors of the Jungwon Wurim.

Among them was the head of the Tang family, Ye Seong, who was the grand duke of the Mukryongbu.

Gi Cheon-woong chuckled.

“It’s as if the masters of our school are risking two lives even without such trivial martial arts skills. In the first place, my head didn’t even turn in that direction. “It wouldn’t be us who unleashed Sahyeok-gong in the midfield.”

“I’m guessing it’s a four-eum religion.”

“If it’s Saeumgyo, it’s worth it. “Our three noble families have each tried to exceed the human lifespan in their own way.”

“life span?”

“Gwanghyeol is good at divorce law and first marriage law. “They seek another life by transferring their soul into another person’s body or by summoning and taking over another person’s soul.”

“….”

“Shinhwa formed Hwajeong. If you live with a completed passion, you can live longer than the life of heaven. Of course, it’s not something that goes beyond common sense, but you age later than others. “With Hwajeong’s magical ability, it is possible to achieve extreme recovery as long as it is not a fatal injury at the level of decapitation.”

“It’s bizarre. “What happens if you do it?”

“The fornication failed. Of course, there are a lot of things we hide from each other, so we don’t know if we truly failed. “Maybe I’ve perfected my own method now.”

“….”

“As you said, if Sa-hyeok-gong had been spread in the midfield, it would have been induced from Sa-eum. “They used to study the techniques of Heupseongdaebeop and Chaeumboyang or Chaeyangboeum for a long time.”

“I heard that Saheopgong originated from the chief.”

“I don’t even know that far.”

The emperor intervened in the middle.

“I’m intrigued. “Leaving aside for a moment why you want to come to Jungwon, I want to hear about the Three Schools.”

Ki Cheon-woong smiled.

“Isn’t this enough?”

He was saying that he had already provided enough information about the three schools, that is, that he had shown his readiness to enter the central region.

“It’s not enough. “Everything you said is interesting, but there are no important areas such as the weaknesses of the Three Religions or the current situation.”

“It’s a pity.”

“I’m curious. Everyone wants to extend their lifespan, but I feel like you guys have crossed the line. “Why are you doing this?”

“To become God.”

“god?”

Ki Cheon-woong closed his eyes.

“If you excel at martial arts or become a scholar who knows nothing, can you be called a god?”

“….”

“Any realm that can be achieved through effort is far from God. However, if you reach a level that cannot be achieved through effort, you will truly be called a god.”

“Is that lifespan?”

“Yes.”

“Why are you so obsessed with God?”

“Over the years, reasons have become less important. Children’s children inherited the wishes of their ancestors and tried to surpass their life expectancy. “So did I.”

“is it.”

“However, I think it is because of orthodoxy. The blood religion has disintegrated, and the three noble families each claim that it is the forerunner of the orthodox blood religion. “If he is truly the forerunner of a god, he must have the appropriate abilities.”

“then.”

Now is the time to really listen.

The emperor gazed intently at Ki Tianxiong.

“Are you saying you are going to give up being a god and come to the central plains and die as a human?”

“….”

“Why do you want to settle in the midfield?”

Gi Cheon-woong’s eyes deepened.

He was silent for a moment. From the moment he announced that he would move into the midfield in the first place, he had no choice but to say why.

Just how to say it.

After a short silence, Ki Cheon-woong opened his mouth.

“I am dying.”

“…?!”

“I want to resolve my life’s destiny with you before I die. “I want to burn my last flame here.”

The words that came out of nowhere were truly shocking.

“You’re dying?”

“Yes.”

The emperor glanced at Gokjing.

Gok-gyeong frowned and said.

“Your martial arts level is so high. “I’m not sure, but I think I’ve reached the point of truly refuting and returning to truth.”

“It’s a rebuttal… That’s half the case.”

“How can someone who has reached such great heights easily mention death? “I don’t think it’s just because of longevity.”

“No, it’s lifespan.”

Gok-gyeong saw bluish veins blinking on Gi Cheon-woong’s white neck.

Is it an illusion? Or is it a sign of something?

My prayer did not waver, but since I was an expert who had reached the level of refuting and returning to truth, I could not notice even the slightest changes in my strength.

the emperor asked.

“What is your destiny in life?”

“The fall of Saeumgyo.”

“…!!”

Even the emperor of the world was surprised by that statement.

Gokgyeong, as well as countless other officers and soldiers who were listening on the walls, were also surprised by Ki Cheon-woong’s remarks.

“The fall of Saeumgyo?”

“Yes.”

“…I don’t understand. “Why are organizations that have been competitors and allies joining forces for a long time?”

Ki Cheon-woong closed his eyes.

He was once again lost in thought in silence. Even though I came this far, my mind must have been complicated.

Gok-gyeong, who was quietly looking at Ki Cheon-woong, asked.

“The Central Plains fell ill due to the tricks of the Shinhwa Church. I don’t know why, but you are joining this group just by saying that you want to destroy Saeumgyo…”

“It’s not me.”

“What do you mean?”

Ki Cheon-woong opened his eyes again.

For a moment, Gok-gyeong was shocked.

Exotic blue eyes. The sea-blue eyes, which were completely unsuitable for the head of the Fire God clan who controlled flames, could not have looked so sad.

“Today, it has been less than two years since I came into the world after fifteen years of training in the closed world.”

“…?!”

“My son has been leading the school in place of me.”

Gok-gyeong opened his mouth wide.

The emperor nodded slightly.

Gi Cheon-woong smiled and asked.

“Did the emperor know?”

“I was making an inference to some extent. “I didn’t know if your son was representing him, but I at least assumed you weren’t really involved in the organization.”

“how?”

“Considering what your Shinhwa Cult has been doing so far, the leader’s sudden advance into the imperial palace was an entirely unbecoming move. If that were the case, wouldn’t they have brought in troops and launched an attack earlier?”

Ki Cheon-woong smiled.

“Just for that reason?”

“Not only that, but that was the most decisive. The color of an organization changes depending on the personality or ideology of the leader. Moreover, not long ago, a turquoise fire erupted in the bronze brazier of the palace, and a strange giant appeared.”

“It’s the art of speaking.”

“I don’t know what kind of technique it was, but it felt really messy and petty. At least the technology was amazing, but I was puzzled. “I heard that the head of the Shinhwa cult would personally come to attack the imperial palace, so why do you insist on trying to talk to me using such tricks?”

“….”

“Nothing was right. That’s why I asked you earlier about Taegam Wooheon’s affairs.”

Gi Cheon-woong nodded.

“You may have thought it was logical, but in the end, it’s just a feeling. “The emperor’s sixth sense was truly extraordinary.”

“Whether it’s a sixth sense or something else, what’s important at this point is that one of our rivals, a man named Shinhwa Cyoju, truly wants to join the Central Plains.”

“…yes.”

Ki Cheon-woong said with a bitter smile.

“Will you accept it?”

“If you come into the imperial palace and start rampaging, the damage we will suffer will be astronomical. “I can’t let you in that easily.”

“What else do I have to prove?”

“A story about Saeumgyo.”

“….”

“And about that.”

The emperor stood up.

“Let’s do it at the royal palace.”
