Descent of the Demon God

Chapter 143: Eun Jarim (3)

Mak Wei-gang went to the opposite cliff of Heavenly Mountain Peak along with his wife. The Heavenly Mountain Peak was located at the far end of the nice peaks, and was extremely tall.

Mak Wei-gang looked around the place covered in grass.

‘Red stone… red stone… red stone… found it!’

A piece of red stone visible through the grass. The first hint.

Mak Wei-gang approached the stone without touching it and looked closely. It was shaped like a triangle with the pointed end pointing to a certain cliff.

“Hubby! It is that.”

Ha Baek-ryeong pointed to the place which was ten steps away from the cliff.

With both feets aligned, he took exactly ten steps ahead, the right foot first.

[In the front… three times right foot… three candidates… three lefts.]

He moved like the Lord said, and so did his wife.

After taking three steps, he took something out of his arms.

A bottle of water.

Shhh!

He poured it to the floor in front of him. And when the water touched the ground, something happened.

Sshhhh!

The soil moved and something like a stone slab appeared.

[Hidden… inside… soil… on top… of stone… arises flame…]

Wheik!

Mak Wei-gang created flame and when it touched the stone slab, it cracked and then opened showing them a stairway leading to a basement.

“Hubby. The road to the heavenly peak has opened.”

She said while leaning on Mak Wei-gang’s back. The stairway would go down, but if they moved this close, they wouldn’t take a couple steps either.

‘The hidden tenth peak!’

His lips twitched.

The time invested until the day came. the past fifty years he spent here. In order to obtain ‘it’, which was sealed by an ancestor, he worked tirelessly to gain trust of the lord.

‘Stubborn old man.’

However, even when the Lord trusted him, he never spoke about the hidden peak. It was his daughter who told him about it.

‘Stupid bitch’.

She fell in love with him and told him everything.

However, even she didn’t know where that hidden peak was. In the end, Mak Wei-gang had to resort to extreme methods and do this.

He was worried his wife wouldn’t allow it, but she let him poison her own father as revenge for her dead mother.

‘What a wretched daughter you rose, Lord.’

She was of useful value to him because he needed her to have an official name here.

Wei-gang

With a sly smile, Mak wei-gang said to her,

“Let’s go in, my wife.”

The bridge which connects the Fourth to Third peak. There was a person running on it, Elder Seong.

Followed by Elder Hyang, the leader of Third Peak.

They could fly from one peak to another, but the reason they were using the bridge was because of the climate which was unusual in the place.

The moment they tried to fly, they would be dragged down. No matter how great the energy was, it would happen.

What was certain is the movement had to be done on legs.

‘We must hurry.’

He looked at the other peaks with a serious face. A great energy was approaching. And that too at a fast rate.

‘What are the warriors guarding the other peaks doing?’

He couldn’t understand.

Fifty people in the Seventh Peak were Superior Masters, so if they wanted, they could go against this intruder at once and end it.

These people weren’t called hidden martial artists for nothing.

But what was this feeling?

“Elder Hyang, we need to hurry.”

“Alright!”

Elder Seong moved faster to cross the bridge and headed to Fourth Peak.

In front of them were two Elders who looked blank.

Geum(?), I commonly hear Geum but never heard of Guem before, so CMIIW

Geum... Has to be a typo

“Elder Guem, Elder Seok!”

“Elder Seong!”

“You two. What are you doing here…”

Before he could even ask, a loud roar came from the other side.

Kwakwakwang!

“What is that?”

The peak on the other side of the bridge shook. It seemed like a fight was happening and then it stopped. Not long after that, they saw three people walk out.

Chun Yeowun, Hu Bong and Ark Young.

‘No… why is Elder Ark with them?’

The man called Elder Seok couldn’t hide his shock. He knew that Ark Young would also be killed after Heavenly Killing Star was killed by the extremists.

However, he was shocked to see that the man seemed fine.

On the other hand, Elder Seong and the remaining ones were shocked by other stuff.

“He is here in less than 15 minutes?”

The fact that they appeared here meant that those who were guarding the other peaks were defeated. There were only three left.

Elder Seong looked at Chun Yeowun.

‘Is he the one?’

Remarkably stronger than the other Elders.

An unknown intimidation from him. A strength which cannot be measured. It was the first time seeing such a monster.

Elder Hyang spoke first.

“Wait… isn’t that person the vice-chairman of Yongchun Group who has been a hot topic recently?”

“Yongchun Group? Demonic Cult?”

Being an Eun Jarim didn’t mean living like a monk. They also watch TVs and use phones. And in order to prepare people for the prophecies, they often send people to the world to gather information.

At the word ‘Demonic Cult’, the face of Elder Seok, an extremist, went stiff.

Phat!

“How dare the members of the Demonic Cult step foot into the holy land of Eun Jarim! I cannot forgive them!”

Phat!

“Elder Seok!”

He couldn’t be stopped. Elder Seok rushed for Chun Yeowun who was crossing the bridge.

‘Ark Young. I need to get rid of him before he spills something out.’

Actually, anger about the purity of Eun Jarim was an act.

What he cared for was killing Ark Young. Killing him before he spoke to other Elders about what had happened.

“Uh, doesn’t seem to have senses.”

Seeing that, Hu Bong shook his head.

Perhaps because he was in here all this time, he was proud of his martial arts.

“Take this! You bastard!”

Chachachacha!

Elder Seok, a master of spears, created spear energy and performed techniques. His skills were different from the past peak’s leaders.

However,

“That is all.”

There wasn’t much power to corner Chun Yeowun.

Chun Yeowun moved through the trajectory without being hit.

“What?”

And he grabbed Elder Seok’s face.

Grab!

“Ump!”

‘W-what energy is this?’

Elder Seok raised his own energy to shake off the grasp but nothing happened.

Ark Young, who was watching it from behind, was shocked again,

‘Incredible! Even the four Elders were treated like kids…’

Elder Seok was a spear master of a reputable clan.

Chun Yeowun shook his head and asked Ark Young.

“Is he an extremist or a moderate?”

Knowing what he was asking it for, Ark Young answered in a weak voice.

“… extremist.”

“Extremist huh… tainted with useless thoughts.”

“Uhm!”

Shocked by the strength, Elder Seok tried to struggle and get out of the grip.

At that, Ark Young spoke.

“That… teacher. I am close to Elder Seok, can’t you show mercy to him?”

Chun Yeowun laughed and shook his head along with…

Crack!

“Kuaaak!”

Crush!

He smashed the face without thinking.

“Elder Seok!!!”

Those watching from the other side screamed the name. Ark Young too looked away from the face of the dead Elder.

Chun Yeowun threw the dead body off the cliff.

“That isn’t the right way to think. Ark Young.”

“B-But…”

“Didn’t you say to me? Those who are tainted with the Blue Sky ideology and Mak Wei-gang’s orders are turning people into rotten water?”

“… right.”

The change came 50 years after Mak Wei-gang joined.

Originally, the Eun Jarim were prepared to counter the prophecies, but then from one moment, they didn’t seem to be much different from the warriors of the world.

“Sigh…”

The solution was simple.

All those who believed the ideology of Mak Wei-gang needed to be killed. It might not be easy to recover, but that is the best way.

‘Is the teacher's method correct?’

Chun Yeowun’s method was too daring. When he came to the peaks, he was making it a point to kill the extremists.

Maybe because he didn’t belong here, he was able to decide their fate quickly.

Chun Yeowun said,

“If you really want to be my disciple, I’ll tell you one thing. If you yourself judged the other one to be wrong in any act, don’t act merciful. You realize that thinking of yours is halting your growth?”

With that, Chun Yeowun moved ahead.

With the form of an undefeatable man.

At that, Ark Young bit his lip and said,

“I will remember that!”

“Good.”

“But, teacher. What about them?”

He pointed to the three Elders across the bridge. They were key figures of moderation.

“Which side?”

Ark Young answered,

“All moderates.”

“Is that so? Then leave them alive after making them beg for their lives.”

When Chun Yeowun moved, Ark Young said,

“They are the leaders of the moderate faction.”

“Leaders?”

“They aren’t shaken by the ideology of Blue Sky. Teacher, we can leave them.”

“Hmm.”

Chun Yeowun nodded.

“Ah… thank you!”

Chun Yeowun didn’t kill all of them, he only wanted to deal with the evil people in Eun Jarim.

Phat!

Worried that Chun Yeowun would change his mind, Ark Young moved to the Elders first.

Despite being on different sides of the peak, Elder Seong, who witnessed a brutal murder, couldn’t hide his anger.

“Ark Young! You bastard! What is all this? Are you even sane? Bringing in a Demonic Cult member into the Snow Line?”

“Elders. Please hold your reins.”

“What? Are you really saying such things now?”

Elder Seong had no intention of listening to him. He decided that Ark Young sided with the Demonic Cult. At that, Ark Young raised his hands to show that he wasn’t going to harm them and said,

“I have no intention of fighting. Give me a chance to explain.”

“Explain? What are…"

“Did you know that Elder Mak ordered the squad to kill me too?”

“What?”

Elder Seong, who was enraged, stopped. This was something he didn’t know.

Frowning, he asked.

“What do you mean?”

At his question, Ark Young explained everything which happened. When the Elders heard it, they were all shocked.

Especially by the fact that Mak Wei-gang had controlled the warriors and Elders too.

However, a more worrisome fact was revealed in the story of Ark Young.

“The entrance point changed?”

“Yes!”

At that time, Elder Hyang couldn’t understand it.

“Elder Seong. The entrance can only be changed by the lady and our Lord right?”

No one other than those with the blood of the Lord could change the entrance point.

Moreover, if the change was done without telling the people inside, then those who would leave wouldn’t be able to enter.

‘Did the miss change it?’

All the three elders were shocked. Because they knew what kind of person she was for her husband.

Feeling betrayed, Elder Seong opened his mouth.

“Mak Wei-gang! What the hell is that bastard up to!”

It was then.

Grrr!

‘!’

The entire peak shook. But the epicenter wasn’t here, which made all the elders turn their heads.

“What?”

“W-what is that peak?”

Where they looked, a great mountain peak they had never seen before appeared.

Heavenly Mountain Peak, where the Lord stayed, was the last peak, but now another peak appeared.

That was when someone moved past them.

Shhh!

‘Uh? Who?’

Ark Young, who saw who moved, called.

“Teacher?”

It was Chun Yeowun and Hu Bong.

Chun Yeowun didn’t bother looking back and said,

“How long do you plan on talking? Follow me!”

“Ah! No!”

The Elders were dumbfounded. A person from the world was asking them to follow him? But they didn’t have any other choice.

Woong!

From the new high peak, a mysterious energy was spreading out in all the directions giving out chills.

For all they knew, their Lord was already in danger.
