Call Of The Spear [EN]: Chapter 282

“Why did you do that?”

“What are you talking about?”

After subduing the Taoists of the Churyeong Sect and extracting information by torturing the sect leader’s Hwaryeong [a spirit body], Guieumna찰 and Cheonbeom stared blankly at Aengro from the summit of Chwiosan Mountain.

“Wasn’t giving Yongnoe [a valuable item] to that Aengdu girl too much?”

“What I give to whom is none of your business.”

“We’re in the same boat now, so isn’t it okay to ask about that much?”

Cheonbeom glared at her, displeased, and turned his head.

“I just returned what I received.”

That’s all.

In the first place, Yongnoe wasn’t that great of an item to Cheonbeom.

He could increase the number as much as he wanted with Sawoljehang, and he had already taken it before, so it was like a useless burden.

Aengdu… No, it would be an extraordinary opportunity for Hogo Sect Leader Hogobo. He received a little help from her, so it wasn’t difficult to give it to her.

“Although her enemy is you, weren’t you also the one who destroyed her sect because you had a grudge against them?”

That’s also correct.

He had a relationship with Hogopa, one of the six major sects of Dongguk, while his body was exhausted from fighting the three major sea clans of the East Sea.

‘Although the relationship was a bad one.’

Anyway, there was no real reason for Cheonbeom to keep Yongnoe.

Guieumna찰 persistently questioned that part strangely, and Cheonbeom shuddered at her tendency to obsess over strange things and answered.

“I just wanted to test something.”

“A test?”

“If a bad relationship could become a good one, I just wanted to try to break that cycle once.”

There is no other reason.

Even if Cheonbeom went back 700 years, he would have made the same choice, and there was no great significance in destroying all six major sects of Dongguk.

They were the ones who tried to harm him first, and he just paid them back for it. So, the feeling he has for Aengdu isn’t guilt.

It’s not like other debts, but he felt a little sympathy.

So, he tried it.

‘Will she really cut off the chain of revenge and go to Hwasin Sect with the opportunity I gave her, or will she give up everything and walk the path of revenge?’

Only heaven knows what will happen.

“Anyway, was there any useful information?”

“Yes, after rummaging through the head of the Churyeong Sect Leader, I found a few interesting news items.”

Guieumna찰 was currently holding the sect leader’s head in one hand, and above it, the Hwaryeong, who looked exactly like the sect leader, was floating in the air with a dazed look.

As the alias of Guieumna찰 was not a false name, she seemed to be more talented than him in torturing Hwaryeong.

“The sects that support Yoojeong are not only here but also divided into several places in the demonic region. All of those places are controlled by my father, so it’s not something I didn’t expect.”

“I thought so.”

He didn’t think there would be only one place here. If Yewoon was secretly helping Yoojeong, that would be natural.

‘The scale is bigger than I thought.’

If that’s the case, it seemed better to just invade Malmando [an island controlled by demonic forces].

Even if I cut off his arms and legs, if there are so many, the head will become too big while I cut off his arms and legs.

‘Rather…’

It would be better to stop him by heading to Malmando right now and then completely capture him by surrounding him with Seondo [righteous, orthodox] sects.

If he runs away with Bunhon [a divided soul], it will leave a future problem….

“How about doing this?”

Guieumna찰 swallowed the sect leader’s Hwaryeong and trembled before speaking.

“Do you have a plan?”

“Let’s go to Malmando first.”

“What then?”

Going to Malmando is not difficult.

I’m trying to make sure that there is no trickery from Yewoon.

“It’s not difficult to eliminate the demonic sects under Yoojeong, but if there are so many, it doesn’t make sense anymore.

Because there’s nothing good for us to drag out the time any longer. The forces of the Seondo sects should have arrived near the demonic region, so I think it’s time to start pressing down with force.”

“In the meantime, I should go to Malmando?”

“That’s right. Because the only person in the demonic region who can stop you is you.”

The Jiseon [a powerful immortal] of Guigang Sect.

It must be referring to Yewoon.

Cheonbeom pondered for a moment.

He had even made a Hwaryeong oath with Guieumna찰, so she could no longer betray him.

It seemed like she would do strange things even at the cost of her Hwaryeong, but Yehu’s resentment towards Yewoon was without a shred of falsehood.

However, as much as that, Yewoon is more of a priority in her head than Yoojeong.

That’s why Cheonbeom had to use his head differently in his own way.

But as things have come to this point, Cheonbeom didn’t have a proper strategy either.

There was no point in dragging out the time any longer, and it was time to put an end to this long fight.

‘I have no choice.’

From now on, it’s a fight against time.

“I’ll have to do that.”

“What are you going to do?”

“I’m going to Malmando.”

* * *

One month later.

Malmando, an island located on the sea where the ice of the North Sea floats.

Ominous clouds of mist filled the area, emitting an unpleasant stench and an aura that was shunned.

It used to be a place that flourished with green vegetation and was even sacred, but now there was a man who arrived at that ominous place as if a demon would appear.

“I’m going to throw up. Now I’ve really completely returned to the path of the demonic region.”

It was Cheonbeom.

“It wasn’t just us who came prepared. It looks like they’ve scraped together all the guys they can scrape together over there.”

“That’s right.”

As Cheonbeom’s red eyes flashed, the presence of countless Masa [demonic warriors] lurking in the mist came into view.

From Doseon [a rank of warrior] to Taeseon [a rank of warrior], an enormous number.

It seemed like they had prepared thoroughly.

“We’re not behind in numbers either.”

When Cheonbeom turned around, several familiar faces appeared behind him.

Ilwol, Ami, Tal, Cheonja, Suwol, Hwasin, etc. There were so many sects that they could not be counted.

A great army that literally covered the sky.

They were all united under the name of Cheonbeom, so it wasn’t embarrassing to call them the army of the sky.

Cheonbeom narrowed his brows as he looked at them all, trying to remember them.

“Why are you here?”

His eyes were on a woman, and she was wearing a Baeksan Sect robe.

She had a face he had never seen before, but Cheonbeom looked at her as if piercing her at once and shouted.

“Cheonyu, I asked why you are here!”

Only then did the woman’s face turn pale, and she took her original young form with a faint smoke, and Cheonyu appeared.

Then, Manho blocked Cheonyu’s path and bowed his head.

“It’s all my fault. I couldn’t overcome the young lady’s heart, so I brought her here.

If you want to punish me, please cut off this old man’s head and punish me!!”

“Jangmun [sect leader], I also agreed, so don’t be so angry. Cheonyu is a Yuksa [a high-ranking disciple] who is walking the path of a great Tao [a path to enlightenment].

Her power far surpasses her peers, and she is looking at Yeongmyeong [a state of enlightenment], so she will definitely be of great help on the battlefield.”

Manho, as well as Mansam, said so, so he couldn’t say anything more.

“Cheonyu.”

“Yes, yes!”

“You’re still young. You don’t have to jump into this battlefield yet. If you want to go back now, go.”

As he said that with his back turned, Cheonyu took out a spear from her arms and armed herself.

“I heard that my father has been through many battlefields, making Baeksan his home since he was younger than me. I will also walk the same path and move towards the Great Dao, so please understand!!”

“…Who did you get that stubbornness from?”

“You must have resembled Yukgui!”

Someone said, it was Somang.

It seems that she also decided to participate in this war.

She is a woman who has a Jiseon in front of her and is a Taeseon with surprisingly strong divine powers.

She will be of great help in this war.

“You’re not from the Baeksan Sect, so why are you involved in this war?”

“I have things to do all over the place.”

Looking at her glaring at the Jangmun of Ilwol Sect, it seems that she is thinking of somehow resolving her old grudges on this occasion.

“And I’m going to live in Baeksan from now on, so I have to lend a hand so I can settle down, right?”

It was a rather brazen remark, but Cheonbeom didn’t dislike that brazenness.

“Then shall we go?”

There is no need to drag out time.

I’ll take care of it all at once.

Whooooong!!

A tremendous storm raged around Cheonbeom.

At the same time, the back of his hand opened, and the purple lightning of Bulcheonbulbyeok [an ultimate technique] from Subunbeopmok [a powerful martial art] ominously stained the sky.

Kurururung!!

The sound of thunder filled the surroundings, and Bulcheonbulbyeok, which had become a streak of lightning in his hand, was shot into the dark clouds in the sky.

Kwaaaaaang!!

With a thunderous sound that was deafening, the lightning thrown into the sky turned into thousands of bundles of purple lightning again.

“Keuaaaaak!!”

At the same time, several screams echoed around like a dirge.

With that one lightning strike, he instantly killed thousands of Masa located in Malmando.

The demonic sects lost their morale at his terrifying power, and the Seondo sects’ morale soared to the sky.

“Let’s go.”

Soon Cheonbeom took a step.

At the same time, the horn blew so loudly that it shook the sky.

“Charge!!”

Cheonbeom disappeared, and the battlefield turned into a fierce battle between Seondo and Mado [demonic path].

The Seondo sects armed with pure white armor.

The Mado sects wearing jet-black armor.

It was like black and white stones fighting in a game of Go [a strategy board game].

“Kill them!!”

Several Masa surrounded Cheonbeom, who had used Chukji [a movement technique] near Malmando.

“Get lost.”

As he waved his hand, a storm raged and a whirlpool was created.

“Kkeuaaaak!!”

“That, that’s Cheonbeom, that guy is Cheonbeom!”

They tried to run away, but there was no way he would let them go. Cheonbeom leisurely flew to Malmando as if he had come out for a stroll, and slaughtered all the presences around him.

There was the lightning bird of Bulcheonbulbyeok and the Hwabhwanhohwan Sword [a powerful sword], so he didn’t have to pay attention to it.

His senses can detect up to a radius of 1,000 li [approximately 310 miles].

He was just slaughtering all the presences of demonic energy lurking around him, so the road opened automatically even if he was standing with his hands behind his back.

How long had he been flying like that for half an hour?

Cheonbeom, who had arrived at the end of Malmando, stopped still for a moment.

Soon, he created an intangible sword energy on his finger and flicked it, and the air rippled and an invisible barrier split.

“Such a ridiculous trick.”

He smirked and entered the barrier, and soon a different landscape was revealed.

Not a turbid cloud of mist mixed with demonic energy, but a peak that looked no different from a fairyland and a few old men sitting on it appeared.

Then, even Cheonbeom, who had been so relaxed, had no choice but to be nervous.

“Welcome, Seonsa Cheon [a title for a virtuous cultivator].”

There were a total of four of them, and they were Jiseon that he was seeing for the first time.

“Why would we be so wary of each other? Come and sit down.”

The surroundings were full of forests and flowers, so the fragrance was rich.

They were at the end of the peak, and when one of the Jiseon struck the ground with a stone staff, a wooden pillar suddenly rose and a gazebo was created by itself.

Cheonbeom narrowed his eyes for a moment and stood in front of them without hesitation.

“Those who follow me are sacrificing their lives on the battlefield.”

It implied that if you have something to say, say it quickly.

“Why are you in such a hurry? Originally, all life under the sky lives and dies, which is providence and fate. It is a very natural act.”

“But there’s no reason for us to get mixed up in that providence.”

“Seonsa Cheon, there’s no reason for you to be in such a hurry either. Find some time to relax.”

It seems that words will not work.

Just by looking at him appearing with Yewoon, I knew why he was blocking my way.

“Are you going to stop me?”

“Seonsa Cheon. You are committing too much killing. A person at the pinnacle of the human world should not incite such chaos. Shouldn’t you leave the secular world and now walk the path of ascension?”

Then Cheonbeom closed his mouth.

It’s not wrong.

The power of Jiseon and Yeongwon [eternal beings] are extraordinary beings with the power to plunge the human world into chaos if they so desire.

If each of them incites chaos, the human world will fall into great despair.

So everyone is self-restrained and only lives for ascension.

They abandon the sects they lived in and live only for ascension.

“And I heard from Seonsa Ye that Seonsa Cheon killed Wangyeong and Pengjoseonsa with his own hands. Of course, there were circumstances for each of them! The fact that someone who will ascend to heaven killed the same Jiseon is something we cannot overlook!!”

“So we have the justification to stop the killing of Cheonbeom, the Jangmun of Baeksan Sect!!”

Kung. Kung. Kung. Kung.

As the Jiseon struck the ground one by one with the stone staff they were holding, the ground they were standing on cracked and thick tree trunks rose up and tightened Cheonbeom’s body like a snake.

“Don’t worry, I won’t kill you.”

“We are simply stopping Cheonbeom’s killing!”

“This is Mokshintong [a wood-based technique] that I have been practicing all my life. My sealing technique is so praised by Hwanmang that you can cool your head for a while.”

As he said, the Mokshintong that tightly bound Cheonbeom was not ordinary.

The smooth surface was like a snake, and the subtle scent of wood made the body relax.

Cheonbeom closed his mouth for a moment.

And after thinking carefully, he said.

“Bullshit.”

Jjeok, Jjeojeojeojeok!!

“Ah, no!!”

Kwaang!!

The Jiseon’s Mokshintong cracked and burst out.

Cheonbeom, who had leisurely dusted off the dust in the explosion, gave a bitter smile.

“Tell your bullshit to the underworld.”
