Return of the Freshman - Return of the Freshman-Episode 273
Episode 273: Penetrating the spirit world with force
As the old woman left the deungseondae, Gwi Seong-jin was able to leisurely observe the situation.
The Heavenly Demon was still holding up well against the Black Angel.
Considering that the Black Angel is a being that transcends royalties, this was a very encouraging result.
Since they were old gangsters who had been through the world of rubella, there was no way they wouldn’t have any treasures or new weapons.
It just wasn’t put out, but once it was out, it would shock the world.
Despite this, the two old monsters were still showing off their fists.
Who is faster and has stronger fists?
Pow! puck!
And they continued to fight ignorantly about who was more stubborn.
Black Angel was a master recognized by Taeheo Seonin and was a extreme performer who had been burned at the stake four times.
Seeing that he was not pushed back while fighting such a black angel, he could vaguely estimate the strength of the Heavenly Demon.
It was clear that he did not give his all when dealing with Gui Seong-jin.
Unlike the fight between the Heavenly Demon and the Black Angel, which seemed like it would not be an easy match, Shinryongja, who was fighting against Taeheo Seonin, was now facing a life-or-death crisis.
Shinryongja is a divine beast called Gusu Shinryong. Of the nine heads, seven were spiritual creatures, one was a demon, and the remaining one was a precious object.
In the lower world, it was difficult to find an opponent even with just one of them, but it seemed that even if all nine heads attacked Taeheo Seonin, it would not be enough.
Two spirit creatures and one ghost had already been sacrificed, and the monster’s head was shaking in half as well.
I regretted rushing towards Taeheo Seonin fearlessly, but I couldn’t back down now.
This is because if I withdraw now, I may not be able to return to the light ship again in the future.
Unlike Shinryongja’s precarious situation, Guiseongjin watched their fight leisurely.
At the same time, it occurred to me that Taeheo Seonin’s skills might be much higher than he thought.
Shinryongja was the strongest in the underworld and could be said to be the true leader among transcendents.
They were playing with him like a toy.
As Gwi Seong-jin knew, Taeheo Seonin was once a sage from the spirit world who reached the level of spiritual sage.
I heard that due to unavoidable circumstances, Wonyoung was seriously injured when she fell into the lower world and was only able to display Jiseon’s initial skills… .
Still, it was surprising that he had that level of skill.
“… … .”
Gwi Seong-jin, who had heightened his alertness while looking at Taeheo Seonin, suddenly turned his head and looked at Cheonma.
It seemed like something had changed there.
Pow!
I didn’t see the details of what happened, but after exchanging recommendations, they were both stumbling.
Wow!
Seeing that Cheonma was bending over and spitting out blood, it looked like she had serious internal injuries.
However, the Black Angel also had an unusual complexion.
It was standing tall in the air, but its face changed from red to blue from time to time.
Eventually, it turned black and flew out of the lighthouse like the wind.
When the Black Angel withdrew from the deungseondae, Shinryongja, who was fighting with the Taeheo Seonin, no longer had any reason to hold on.
Crash!
He gritted his teeth at Taeheo Seonin and he too left Deungsundae.
When all the monsters occupying the light stand retreated, Taeheo Seonin dusted off his sleeves and climbed onto the jade stand.
Then he looked up at the sky in silence and explained the origin of this place to the two people.
“This is the lighthouse. When a person wishing to become a monk sat here, heaven sensed this, looked at his qualifications, and opened the door to the spirit world. That’s why the sky above the jade dae was called Yeongtongmun.”
“There is no response at all now, is there?”
Taeheo Seonin, who looked back at Gui Seongjin’s words, continued speaking.
“That’s right. Now, the dimension connected to the spirit world has been distorted, so heaven’s will does not lead to this place. But that doesn’t mean there’s no reaction at all. When the day comes, heaven and earth are disturbed, the dimension is shaken, and the entrance to the spirit world is briefly visible above the jade tower. “Don’t miss that moment and go through the entrance.”
“Hwanil happens once every few years?”
“I don’t know. That’s why monsters stay here… . But the sign is clear and will not be overlooked.”
“That’s a good thing. “Then until then, I guess I’ll just sit on the prison bench and meditate.”
Gwi Seong-jin looked at Cheonma, who had come up to Okdae before him, and asked Taeheo Seon-in.
Cheok!
Because Gui Seong-jin knew, Cheonma did not listen to any of Taeheo Seonin’s explanations.
However, as if it was natural, he was sitting on the prison bench and praying.
“That would be good. But what is your relationship with the ghost? She’s a pretty old lady, and when she saw you, honey dripped from the corners of her eyes… . Have you been the victim of an illusion?”
“It can’t be. I met Guiho by chance, and he said it was amazing that we met here today and asked me about some things from the past. Then he hurried away.”
“Is that all?”
“That’s it. “I still don’t know why she suddenly left.”
“You won’t see me again, so you don’t have to worry anymore. Now, let’s sit in the prison cell and wait until the day comes.”
“All right.”
After that, the three meditated and waited for the day to come.
But the day came later than expected.
It was not until twenty years after they arrived at Deungsundae that Guiseongjin could see that the changes in the sky had begun.
Rumbling.
At first, a thundering sound was heard.
An eerie roar, like the howl of a wild beast, was heard, and suddenly a thunderbolt flashed and the sky brightened up.
Chijijijijik.
Flash! Flash!
A huge thunderstorm fell like rain for several days.
Then, hundreds of lightning bolts fell at once, turning the ground upside down and tearing up space.
The angry earth soared into the sky, and the heated thunderbolt entered the torn space and, unable to withstand it, flew back into the sky.
Flash!
Crumbling. Quang!
The Qianjiyuan Qi created a huge whirlpool and dragged the thunderclouds in the sky down to the ground.
Then, unable to overcome the brain pressure, he vomited out a cloud, and the thunderbolts that came out of it suddenly hit the sky.
The sky, which had received a surprise attack, cracked and began to fall down.
Space shattered and even time slowed down, the energy of the heavens and earth fluctuated like crazy, and black brilliance poured out from the cracks and covered the light ship platform.
inside… .
As if in an illusion, a small door appeared.
Whirling!
The three people who had been waiting for that moment flew into the sky like a beam of light.
Then I entered the narrow door at the bottom of the passage to the spirit world.
Ugh!
A tremendous amount of spiritual pressure pushed him out the door, but Gui Seong-jin gritted his teeth and flew up the passage.
Gwi Seong-jin, thinking that it would be the end if he was pushed out of here, summoned the Asura Buddha statue, melted the Buddha statue into his body, and fiercely resisted the force pulling him from the underworld.
Toouk.
Finally, the force that had persistently restrained Gui Seong-jin fell away.
Gui Seong-jin, whose body was freed, began to cut through space with the Myeongokdo and open the passage to the spirit world.
The path leading up to the spirit world was very similar to the Saengsacheongwan installed by Taeheo Seonin on Samsin Mountain.
This is because Taeheo Seonin referred to this place when he created Saengsacheongwan.
However, the power was significantly different.
As Taeheo Seonin said, this place seemed to be almost ten times more dangerous.
In addition, there were several risk factors added here that were not found in the Life and Death Heavenly Hall.
Space storm and magical power restrictions.
And it was the danger of Simma.
Fortunately, Gui Seong-jin had treasures that could resist lightning, earth, and evil spirits.
Nevertheless, we had no choice but to be extremely careful, because the closer we got to the spirit world, the more intense the danger factors became.
Later on, it became difficult to block the thunderbolt with self-reliance.
The same goes for Jihwa and Simma.
So there was no need to ask again how much Taeheo Seonin and Cheonma were struggling.
To make matters worse, evil beasts began to protrude from the passageways of the spirit world.
A type not seen in the summer.
The skills of those who were presumed to be evil beasts of the spirit world were so outstanding that their eyes popped out.
Kwaaaaang!
The fire monkey holding the nanga stick was so fast and fierce that even Gwi Seong-jin was afraid and avoided it.
It attacked while riding the space storm, but it was so haunted that I had no idea how to deal with it.
Even if you cut it with the Myeongok Blade, it will not die, but if you limit its magical power with the Yeouiju, it will run even more viciously.
But as time passed, my skills in dealing with others gradually increased… .
Phew!
The moment it got out of the storm, Gui Shengjin restricted the flame monkey’s movements with his temporal powers.
And I pierced the guy’s head with my trust.
KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Only then was Gwi Seong-jin able to hear the bastard’s screams.
One was difficult, but two were not that difficult.
Afterwards, Gui Seong-jin destroyed dozens of fire monkeys in a similar manner.
The flame monkeys who witnessed Gui Seong-jin displaying his magical powers no longer attacked him.
Instead, the number of people attacking Taeheo Seonin and Cheonma increased significantly.
* * *
Half a year later.
Taeheo Seonin, whose face was devastated, was slaying evil beasts with his dharma treasure, Ilwolcheonryun, with a tired expression.
Flute!
The Ilwolcheonryun, which consists of two arms, the Ilryun and the Wolryun, was the Jinmyeong Dharma Treasure that Taeheo Seonin had used since he was in the spirit world.
When the Sun, Moon, and Heavenly Ring is thrown, the blade protruding from the outside of the ring rotates to attack the opponent, and there is nothing in the world that cannot be cut.
Even a beast as hard as a diamond would have difficulty surviving if hit by the Dharma Treasure.
As he was killing the evil beasts, he looked back and saw that Cheonma and Gwi Seong-jin were still not dead and were following him.
It was unexpected.
This place was now much higher than the point where Taeheo Seonin broke through 3,000 years ago.
In getting to this point, he had a lot to do with his thorough preparation, but the help of those two people was also significant.
But now I couldn’t afford to hold on any longer.
The spiritual energy and magical power were almost exhausted, and there were no herbal medicine or spirit stones left.
If you go up a little further, you will be able to reach the spirit world… .
Taeheo Seonin, with evil lights shining in his eyes, decided to eat the two Wonyoungs like he did in the past.
Consuming human spirits and replenishing his strength was a secret technique he learned from Yosu.
In that case, contamination of Wonyoung could not be avoided.
However, I was afraid of that and could not give up the opportunity to enter the spirit world.
A contaminated Wonyoung can be washed away by going up to the spirit world, finding a Seryeongdan, and eating it… .
Chaang!
Taeheo Seonin, with a poisoned mind, held the Sun, Moon, and Heavenly Wheel in both hands and let one of the evil beasts flow behind him.
“oh! This guy. be careful!”
Taeheo Seonin, who pretended to be a mistake and issued a warning to the two, flew back chasing the beast.
Then, the two people who were distracted by the evil beast were suddenly attacked with Ilryun and Wolryun.
Flute!
Ugh!
In response to the surprise attack, the Heavenly Demon thrust forward the beast it was holding and launched its body upwards to the spirit world.
Kaang!
On the other hand, Gui Seong-jin bounced the wheel with Myeongokdo, unfolded the two-wheeled ring, and fled down the passage.
It would be easy to judge if the two men ran in one direction, but when they ran in opposite directions, Taeheo Seonin looked perplexed.
But in the end, the side he chose was the spirit world where the Heavenly Demon flew away.
This is because if you followed Guiseongjin, you would have to go back up the difficult path you came up.
Gwi Seong-jin, who had been wary of Taeheo Seon-in from the beginning, took such psychology into consideration and decided on a direction to run away.
Thanks to this, a brief crisis was averted, but the future was a problem.
Stand tall.
As Taeheo Seonin chased after Cheonma, Gwi Seongjin stopped walking.
And I watched the two from afar.
When Taeheo Seonin attacked with Wolryun, the Cheonma that ran away with its beast forward had its internal organs sticking out of its stomach.
Nevertheless, he stopped the bleeding with his supernatural powers, pushed his internal organs into his stomach, and continued to ascend upward, but the wounds became more and more serious due to the tremendous spiritual pressure and lightning attacks.
It was impossible to shake off Taeheo Seonin in such a state.
In the end, they ended up fighting with Taeheo Seonin in a narrow passage, but when the final moment came, Cheonma ended up taking extreme action.
He committed suicide.
Pow!
The aftermath of the suicide bombing was enormous.
Taeheo Seonin, who was smiling in triumph after overpowering him, ended up being thrown into a wall with his whole body in shambles.
Taeheo Seonin, who escaped from the wall, had lost one arm and two legs.
Cough!
Moreover, he lowered his head and vomited blood, and there were pieces of cut internal organs mixed in the blood.
When Taeheo Seonin raised his head and looked at the sky, he saw Wonyoung of the Heavenly Demon desperately running away through the ceiling.
Ssssss.
Taeheo Seonin, who flew into the sky, enlarged his remaining hand to the size of five pieces and grabbed the Heavenly Demon’s Wonyoung.
Cheonma, who was captured by Taeheo Seonin, made an ejaculation.
“buy… Please save me. If you spare me, I will become your servant and follow you for the rest of my life. So please treat me kindly… .”
“Kkkkkk. If I ascend to the spirit world, those who will follow me will be everywhere. So, sacrifice yourself for me right here and now!”
Taeheo Seonin, who had a cruel chest, took the Heavenly Demon’s Wonyoung into his mouth and cruelly chewed it and ate it.
Munching.
In doing so, I overlooked the fact that the Heavenly Demon’s Wonyoung was darker than expected.
The fact that Wonyoung, who was dying, slightly twisted the corner of her mouth… .
