The World of Sound - Chapter 211
Only Noblemtl
211
The headquarters of the Asura Blood Sect.
The identity of the old man who was held captive in the basement was none other than Cheonhwa’s master.
Danhosu, the 6th head of the Cheonummun and the absolute ruler who single-handedly ended the Jeongma War a hundred years ago.
It was hard to believe that someone like that was being held captive by a mere Asura Blood Cult, even after seeing it with my own eyes.
I even went so far as to check to see if he was fake.
Of course I know it’s not fake.
Because reading his waves was simple.
I think that was the reason why it felt strangely familiar.
“It hurts, you punk!”
However, when I poked and pinched him for no reason, his master got angry and yelled at him, but his temper was definitely not as bad as before.
Perhaps it was because I was feeling weak and drained.
“If you’ve checked everything, release this quickly.”
“What on earth is going on? What on earth have you been doing to be here like this?”
“Yeah. That’s right… … .”
So Cheonhwa breathed life into him with his sword and blood, and first restored his stamina.
Even so, it is not a complete recovery.
My right arm was cut off, and I felt like my danjeon was destroyed.
Still, it was a miracle that he was still alive.
It seemed like he had been tortured to a level that would not normally lead to him becoming a wreck, but rather to sudden death.
Still, the master somehow survived, and as soon as he let his energy flow away, he gathered the strength to speak.
After parting ways with Cheonhwa in a slightly awkward manner, he began to talk about his whereabouts, more precisely, after running away in the middle of the night.
“… … This crazy old man?”
It was a fairly abbreviated story, but the faces of Cheonhwa and Bukgungyeon who heard it were filled with astonishment.
Because the stories he told were absolutely absurd.
It’s good that you’ve gathered everything that could be of value and left Cheonhwa to embark on a journey to become a god.
As confirmed through the Tang family, it was understandable that Cheonhwa had gone through Sacheon and reached Bukhae, and that he had stayed there and prepared to reach the celestial world.
But what happened after that was absurd.
The gate of the devil’s realm from which monsters are released.
Because it was the master who opened it.
Of course, it was not something he did alone and recklessly, but something he did in cooperation with the Asura Blood Cult.
They used the arrangement they had been preparing for a long time to help open the gates of the Demon Realm.
That was absurd, but the reason for doing it was even more absurd.
It’s to become a god.
It is said that while preparing to ascend to the celestial world by holding on to the 12 stars of the Cheon-eum-singong and ascending to the Uhwa-deung-seon, he realized that his karma was insufficient.
Whether you accumulate good karma to become a god or evil karma to become an evil spirit, you need to accumulate a certain level of karma. But when he realized that this was not enough, he joined hands with the Asura Blood Sect just to accumulate karma.
“Did you want to become a villain?”
“That doesn’t matter, but that wasn’t the intention. If I let them all out and beat them up myself, wouldn’t that also be a significant act of karma? That’s what I was planning… … .”
“Were you subdued in return?”
“Hehehe. I didn’t know it would turn out like this. I didn’t know they would betray me so quickly, I didn’t know they would use that much force to open the gates of the Demon Realm, and I didn’t know ‘they’ would be that strong.”
That was crazy.
Opening the gates of the Demon Realm and letting monsters appear to accumulate good deeds?
Is that something any sane person would think of doing?
While thinking that way, on the other hand, it was understandable.
Because he was none other than my master.
Thinking about this man’s usual behavior, I couldn’t help but think that he was just being taught by his master.
“Oh my… … If it goes like this, it’s certain that he’s evil. But, is he strong? Do you think you could have won if you had fought him when you were at your best?”
And it has already happened.
Cheonhwa shook her head slightly and changed the subject.
Even though there was a quick betrayal and drain of energy from the Asura Blood Cult, in the end, what was lost was lost.
I was curious about the strength of the being that emerged from the gate of the Demon Realm, whom the master called ‘that guy’.
I also wondered how big the gap was between myself and my master.
I thought I had gotten a lot stronger, but I still wasn’t at the level of an 11-star player.
Before he ran away in the middle of the night, he could say that he had surpassed the strength of his master that he remembered, but honestly, he had no confidence in it.
I am confident that I will not give up easily, but I do not know what kind of world I will be able to see at the 11th level.
“Of course! Well… … I don’t know what to do with it like this.”
And the answer that came back was a bit ambiguous.
He said that if his master was in perfect condition, he would have won, but he said that he couldn’t be confident in his current state.
You might say that it was natural since he had lost his dantian and even one arm, but Cheonhwa knew.
That the master had not lost all his power.
Although it was clear that the dantian had been destroyed, the waves emitted by the master did not feel much different from before.
I couldn’t help but tilt my head because I thought my danjeon might be fine.
“Then how do you compare to me?”
“That’s… … To be honest, it won’t be easy. You’ve grown a lot, but even if you’ve gotten really good at it, you’re not someone I can easily defeat.”
That’s why I asked him to compare himself to me, but the answer was negative. It couldn’t be because he looked down on me.
Even though it seemed like his master’s lifelong pleasure was torturing him, there was no way he would tell a lie like that.
“But don’t worry. If I fight with you, we will definitely win.”
But there were also positive answers.
Cheonhwa alone would be too much, but together they would be able to defeat him.
“Master? Like that?”
“Huh. What do you think the Heavenly Sound Art is? Just rest a little, and if you cooperate a little, you’ll be able to recover most of your strength.”
Also surprisingly, it was said that there is a way to recover strength even if you have lost your lower dantian.
And in a very short period of time.
“Oh. So you’re saying that it’s still too early?”
But instead of being surprised by that, Cheonhwa showed interest in something else.
The point is that the master has not yet recovered his strength, nor can he recover it.
“What, what is that expression?”
“Ehhhhhhhhhh! What is it? It seems that our respected master has not been able to take care of himself for a long time, so I, a lowly disciple, would like to help him out.”
The master struggled, perhaps sensing ominousness in that sinister expression, but it was no use.
Because Cheonhwa knew this would happen, she still hasn’t taken off the handcuffs and shackles that were on him.
Thud!
Cheonhwa quickly approached her master and extended her hand.
He grabbed the goatee that he hated to see, the pride of his master.
“What are you doing! Let go of me!”
“Okay, let’s go?”
Splash!
He just ripped out his entire beard.
It was a moment I had been dreaming of ever since the day my master ran away in the middle of the night, leaving behind a letter and even stealing my emergency fund.
I would have liked to have punched him, but I was satisfied with this since he was too weak to endure it.
It felt like all the stress that had built up while undergoing torture-like training from my master was going away.
***
After rescuing his master, Cheonhwa and his group moved to a safer place free from monsters to help him recover.
I thought it would take a few days, but surprisingly, the master recovered most of his energy in half a day.
After recovering some of his energy with Cheonhwa’s help, he played a verse with him for about a minute, and as if his destroyed danjeon meant nothing, he regained his boundless strength.
“The world is already with me, so Danjeon is just a distraction.”
Hyunkyung.
It only took half a day to reach the absolute state that even surpassed the flower garden.
Even the words he confidently blurted out were filled with the ultimate enlightenment, so Cheonhwa couldn’t just ignore them and think about them like Bukgungyeondo.
“Of course, it will be difficult to be the same as before.”
However, even so, it cannot be the same as before.
Because I lost an arm.
Although he knows how to play without hands, like Cheonhwa playing multiple instruments at the same time, it is still difficult to play it directly.
“Disciple. Please lend me your instrument.”
And one more thing.
None of the sacred items from the Cheonummun Gate that he took with him when he fled in the middle of the night remained.
All of them were destroyed in the battle with ‘that guy’.
The instruments that could even withstand the power of the Heavenly Sound Shingong boasted incredible durability, so it would have been difficult to break them even on purpose, but the bastard destroyed them all himself.
To weaken the power of the master and block variables.
“What did you leave for me? You ran away with everything.”
The only good thing is that Cheonhwa has already recreated all of those divine beings.
And at a level that is even better than before.
Cheonhwa grumbled as he handed over the wind chime and the resonating bell to his master.
He himself has become able to control the power of all spirits to the limit, but he is more familiar with the Brain Spirit Gold, Toryeonggo, and Ice Spirit Jade Medicine.
Since he was a master who had lost one arm, it might have been better to entrust him with something other than stringed instruments like the pipa or the zither, but in order to play two stringed instruments anyway, he also had to use qigong.
In that case, it was decided that it would be better to play them separately rather than playing only two string instruments ambiguously.
I originally liked my master’s pipa performance better.
“If you’re ready, let’s go. Let’s catch that guy and close the door.”
So, as soon as the master finished recovering, Cheonhwa got up.
I could have waited and recovered a bit more before leaving, but I felt it wasn’t necessary.
Even though he was a master who cursed at me all the time, I respected and acknowledged his strength more than anyone else.
Even though he wasn’t perfect, just being with him made me feel like I had nothing to fear in the world.
I didn’t feel any tension or fatigue.
He immediately began moving, following the guidance of his master, who remembered the location of the bastard and the location where the gate to the Demon Realm opened.
In the meantime, the monsters that had lost their Asura blood cult control ran wild, but they were not even the slightest threat.
To that extent, it was easily resolved between Noeryeong, Moo-oh, and Bukgungyeon, not Cheonhwa or Danho Lake.
Bukgungyeon now knew that the two people born under the stars of order and harmony that Shinsung had mentioned in his words were those two, not himself.
That made me feel even more miserable, but instead of being discouraged, I did the best I could.
He spared no effort and slashed and slashed at the monsters.
As they got closer to their destination, the number of monsters increased, and some monsters even reached the peak level and even beyond, but they were no match for Bukgungyeon who was giving it his all.
Even monsters of the Hwagyeong level.
In that way, Cheonhwa and Danhosu opened the path to the Asura Blood Cult Leader, without allowing them to lift a single finger.
By giving it your all.
And finally I could reach it.
A black sphere about the size of a three-story building, at the door leading to the Demon Realm.
To the Asura Blood Cult Leader who was waiting for them while sitting on the throne in front of the door.
“The offerings have arrived.”
No, to ‘Asura’.
Woohoo!
As he got closer to him, the Asura statue in Cheonhwa’s arms began to vibrate rapidly.
As Cheonhwa looked back at the guy, calming him down by squeezing his hand, a familiar yet overwhelming wave of energy began to emanate from the guy.
It was a wave from the original stream, more overwhelming than the Cheonma.
“With this, I can completely open the door to the Demon Realm.”
The Asura Blood Cult leader who raised his head and looked at them no longer looked like a human being.
It was not a metaphor, it was true.
“Be careful. He is not of this world. The Asura Blood Cult Leader, he sacrificed his body and unleashed that monster upon the world.”
Asura.
It’s not like we’re borrowing his power, but the guy himself has descended upon humanity.
