Episode 827: What kind of history is it hiding?
Yongjin was surprised. Ikmara? If Wolsocheon hadn’t said anything, Yongjin would still have thought they were Gojok.
“Can a human be this strong? Can he bond with not only demons, but also the demon race?”
Yongjin could neither cry nor laugh.
Wolsocheon looked at Yongjin and said as if he had no choice.
“In fact, humans are the most complex beings in this world. Humans are a contradiction in themselves. Sometimes good and sometimes evil, sometimes noble and sometimes base, sometimes divine and sometimes devilish. Humans are the beings who cannot resist temptation the most, and they go on adventures because their desires are not satisfied. They do not fear anything, and eventually… this is how the human race came to this.”
“Were the humans of old strong?”
Yongjin was dumbfounded.
“Strong? It’s hard to describe it as strong. Humans are the spirits of all things. All people are a single spirit, and all beings are the masters of the world who possess the truth that governs all things in the universe. However, the human bloodline became impure a long time ago and is on the verge of extinction, but we don’t even know it and continue to fight.”
Wolsocheon shook her head. Her tone was filled with all sorts of worries.
It was a good thing that the humans fought each other to the death, so there was no one to trouble the Sima tribe. Yongjin wanted to say that, but he couldn’t bring himself to say it when he thought about his status.
Yongjin, who continued to look at the mural, discovered that all the pictures were connected, a continuous picture.
The next picture showed a large number of human beings. The two sides had fought a battle, as corpses were scattered all over the field. High mountains had collapsed, and the land was dyed red.
In that scene, the human race seemed to have suffered great losses, as there were many casualties. The two wings of the Ikma were wrapped around the section. Although they were not moving in the picture, it could be felt that their speed was incomparably fast.
Their bodies were bulging with muscle. Their sturdy bodies were filled with explosive power. Their brute force was so brutal that even humans were no match for them.
The words of Wolsocheon came to mind. Yongjin couldn’t help but laugh. Even though the human race was the ancestor of Ikma, Ikma mercilessly slaughtered them.
The next few screens were all scenes of the Ikma tribe slaughtering the human race indiscriminately. At the end, a group of people appeared, made a seal with both hands, and then shadows appeared one by one behind them.
In the shadows were swords, swords, pagodas, and bells. Their method of conspiracy was like a kind of soul magic.
As the spirit of marriage swept through, the bloodthirsty demons’ bodies instantly froze and stopped.
“Is Ikma originally afraid of drinking alone?”
Yongjin suddenly realized.
“Living demons are afraid of drinking alone. But those who died and came back to life are not afraid. If they weren’t, we wouldn’t have suffered so badly last time.”
Thinking about their collaboration last time, Wolsocheon felt happy and gently wrapped his arm around Yongjin’s.
“What… What is this?”
Yongjin didn’t notice the subtle change in Wolsocheon’s emotions. When he saw the next picture, a look of disbelief appeared in both his eyes.
In that scene, people were celebrating after defeating Ikma. The strong men of the human race were gathered together and worshipping a group of people.
The group included men and women. They stood high in the sky, giving off a noble and holy vibe. The most surprising thing was that they all had some kind of mark between their eyebrows.
The trace was faint, but it was very similar to the pattern that appeared when Wolsocheon exploded his original power. Even the feeling was similar.
“Socheon, are these people from the Sima tribe?”
Yongjin asked.
“I sense a familiar aura from them. Especially since the footprints on their foreheads look familiar, even if they are not Sima, they must have a deep connection with us. However, the people of that time revered them to the point of worship. If they are really Sima, why have the current Sima become the enemies of the whole world?”
A look of despair was reflected in Wolsocheon’s beautiful eyes.
“Are you not sure either?”
Yongjin was dumbfounded.
Wolsocheon shook his head and said.
“My mother doesn’t want me to know too many secrets. Besides, the elders don’t talk about our ancestors’ secrets. As I said before, if we know too many secrets, our Sima disciples won’t be able to go out into the world. I don’t know why, but I believe that my mother does this for our sake.”
Yongjin nodded and looked at the people in the picture. Numerous questions came to mind. If the people in the picture were really the Sima tribe, what had happened in the meantime?
The human race in the painting seemed to have defeated the Sima tribe with their help or direction. This mural commemorates the achievements of the Sima tribe’s strongmen.
If the person on this screen is really a strong Shima tribe member… … .
A thought crossed Yongjin’s mind. If that were true, wouldn’t that be a huge secret?
What on earth happened to turn away from the way of heaven and worship it as a god, leading to massacre?
Could it possibly be related to the legendary Great War? What kind of history does that Great War hide?
Shh.
Suddenly, Wolsocheon swung his sword and killed Jiamjiseo, who was trying to surprise the two. Yongjin, who was deep in thought, came to his senses in surprise.
“Don’t think too deeply about it. What’s meant to be revealed will eventually be revealed. If you don’t have the skills, it’s meaningless to know anyway. Now, let’s keep moving forward!”
Wolsocheon gently grabbed Yongjin’s hand.
Yongjin nodded and continued walking forward. This underground world was like a labyrinth. Jiamjiseo was rampant everywhere.
After passing another section, Yongjin found that the pressure on his soul power was getting worse. Wolsocheon’s face was getting paler.
“So-cheon, what’s wrong?”
Yongjin asked.
“Don’t you… feel fantastic?”
Wolsocheon asked Yongjin with a surprised face.
Half an hour ago, Wolsocheon began to see distorted images in front of her, and eventually hallucinations began to appear continuously.
Sometimes, the abyss beneath his feet would turn into an abyss, demons would appear in front of him, and strange sounds would be heard behind him. At first, Wol So-cheon thought he had entered an illusionary formation.
However, Wolsocheon did not say anything because Yongjin seemed to be easily blocking the illusion. The hallucinations became more and more intense. As they became more and more real than she could handle, she gradually lost her sense of stability.
When hallucinations occur, a person’s spiritual senses deteriorate rapidly, so even if a Jiamjiseo appeared in front of her at that time, she had a hard time noticing it. She felt bad, as if she had suddenly become blind.
“Fantasy? What are you talking about?”
When Yongjin looked confused, Wolsocheon looked surprised.
At that moment, Dong Hwang Jong’s voice was heard.
‘She is not like you. You have defeated yourself. You defeated someone stronger than you. Your will is so extreme that your city is nearly perfect, without a single flaw. The illusion here targets not only the soul power of a person, but also the shimma, the weak point of the mind. Your will is so strong that an illusion of this intensity cannot charm you. You cannot even sense it, but she will have a very hard time.’
Yongjin was dumbfounded that even the Hwanjin couldn’t eat away at his city center. He didn’t know that there would be such a good thing about defeating another self.
The phantoms here were aimed at the human mind. The less solid the city center was, the easier it was to be infected. The more fearful one felt in one’s heart, the more fearful things would appear in one’s mind, and eventually one would get lost in this labyrinthine passage.
“You don’t feel anything at all?”
Wolsocheon looked at Yongjin with a mysterious expression.
Yongjin smiled, hugged Wolsocheon’s slender waist with one hand, and exploded with determination.
To explode with will is to explode with momentum. This is a kind of invincible momentum, a spirit that looks down on the world, like a god looking down on the eternal world.
Yongjin only showed this kind of momentum when he was fighting a fierce battle with a peerless powerhouse, but now he was hypnotizing himself into thinking that he was facing a peerless powerhouse.
It was an intangible power, but it was also a qualitative power, so profound that it could not be expressed in words.
As Yongjin’s willpower spread, Wolsocheon suddenly discovered that the space around him was no longer distorted. All the abnormal phenomena disappeared.
“What did you do?”
Wolsocheon asked with a surprised expression.
Yongjin spoke openly about the time he had to face someone stronger than him during a test.
Wolsocheon was shocked. This was impossible. How could a person overcome himself? Not only that, he was not tired, but his fighting power was one level higher.
“Yongjin, why are you so desperate?”
Wolsocheon asked in a deep voice. Her beautiful eyes were filled with longing.
Yongjin said with an awkward smile.
“If I told you that I wanted to become stronger in order to protect you, would you believe me?”
“I believe everything you say.”
Wolsocheon looked at Yongjin and said.
Yongjin made an awkward expression. He had intended to be a joke, but he ended up embarrassed. Even if he said it was true now, it would have felt fake, and if he said it was not true, she might have been sad. Yongjin couldn’t joke around carelessly because he hadn’t figured out her feelings yet.
“Hey, what’s that?”
Yongjin, who was walking forward, suddenly discovered that the waves around him had disappeared. The two had passed the illusionary zone and entered another zone.
Not far behind, a faint shadow was slowly following Yongjin and Wolsocheon.
The shadow was so faint that it was impossible to detect in the pitch-black underground. Yongjin could only detect its presence after feeling a faint soul wave.
“It’s a ghost.”
Wolsocheon said while looking at the shadow.
“Are you a ghost?”
“That’s right. But it’s a little different from what people know. When a person dies, they are divided into three powers: Hon (魂), Baek (魄), and Goe (魁). Of these, Goe is the purest power during life, and when they die, it goes to the afterlife and is forever separated from the yin and yang of the human world. Goe goes to the afterlife, but Hon and Goe remain in this world. For some people, when they die, their obsession disappears, and their Hon and Goe combine to become new powers and they are reincarnated. However, because Goe goes to the afterlife, even if they are reincarnated, they have no memories of their previous life.
On the other hand, some people, even after death, have a grudge and go to the underworld as ghosts, but their soul and body are separated. Because the grudge remains in the soul, the soul becomes a ghost, and the body becomes a falcon. The ghost represents greed and desire, and the falcon represents cruelty and bloodshed. Both are beings that cannot see the light.”
Wolsocheon explained.
“No way. Is there really an afterlife in this world? Is there even reincarnation?”
Yongjin felt a chill down his spine.
“Oh, no. Everything you’ve heard is just hearsay. In fact, it’s part of the cycle of heavenly reincarnation.”
