Episode 198: Reincarnated as the Leader of the Demonic Cult (4)
What are you doing? I was dumbfounded by the question that came out in reverse as if it was a question of interrogation.
“yes?”
“I think it was better before. You are… … your words are uselessly frivolous.”
“Even I have limitations in understanding certain words.”
“It seems like the arrogance is still there.”
I have absolutely no idea why you are suddenly saying something like this.
I gave up trying to understand and listened to my father’s words with a blank expression.
“You don’t have to keep your word. Things like promises and faith are things that only political parties that risk their lives for delusions do. However, the words you spit out are the meaning of the doctrine and the path you must walk. So you must never regret it. Even if the end of that path is a pit of fire that leads everyone to death.”
“… … .”
“Also, when you want to get rid of something, get rid of distracting thoughts. There is nothing on this earth that the leader cannot erase. So, you only need to worry about one thing. Will you spare the other person now? Just remember that.”
“Well, if you look at it that way, are you saying that the Emperor, the Nameless One, and the Three Lords are all saved by their Father?”
“Isn’t that obvious?”
What kind of arrogant and ridiculous logic is this?
He is the only one who saves everyone in this world. He is truly the only one in the heavens and the earth.
But my father’s eyes were so serious that I couldn’t take these ridiculous words as a joke.
So, I started to ask my father questions, little by little, as if I was falling into it.
“For what purpose should I do this? What is the purpose of the Ming religion? Aren’t the words that my father speaks nothing more than the self-righteousness of those who have risen to power?”
“… … It is a great cause. The emperor cherishes and looks after all the people, the leader preserves traditions, and seeks order in the martial arts world. The leader pursues freedom and follows the law of the jungle without intervention. But has anything ever been accomplished as he intended? He only hesitates. It is just an excuse to harm and take from others, or to make them understand the tyranny of the strong.”
“That’s forced. Doesn’t everyone practice martial arts to harm or steal from someone?”
“Of course, there are those who are not like that. Whether it’s a monk who is locked in a temple or a Taoist monk who left the secular world to practice Zen. But we don’t want people like that here.”
“Is this place… …?”
“The world of martial arts. This is a place where only those who cultivate power and seek their desires exist. If you don’t like it, then just give up your inner strength and leave.”
I was speechless for a moment. What kind of place is the martial arts world?
Before discussing romance, once you set foot here, you must keep death by your side.
Each of us must fight for our own cause, achieve it, and prove ourselves.
but…….
“So, since Myeonggyo is that kind of martial arts world, does that mean you can use your power without hesitation to harm others?”
“That’s right, but it’s wrong. Whether it’s an expression of emotion or a change of thought, there’s only one thing that can determine this in the Ming school.”
My father stood up from his seat and continued speaking with a solemn expression.
“My will is the cause of the Ming religion. Let me ask you, what do you wish for?”
I lowered my head, unable to hide my shock.
This is the place that the world calls the devil’s cult.
I lived there and was influenced by it.
I think it was called ‘the black of the near ink’.
Who am I now, and what path am I trying to take?
Asked.
“… …Why are you telling me this now?”
My father said this calmly, as if it were a given.
“Because you are… … the leader of the Myunggyo sect.”
Thud. My heart skipped a beat, my emotions surging.
When I ascended to the position of leader through the Great Heavenly Emperor, it was not the same as it is now.
I set out to change schools when I was young, but I didn’t think deeply about the position.
When I became a magician, I just wanted to keep it with the thought that I wouldn’t let it be taken away.
I didn’t know the famous school.
I didn’t try to find out what the leader’s stomach was like.
“Looking down on someone is a lonely and self-righteous thing that ordinary people cannot easily understand. If one who is at the top becomes weak-hearted and steps down, he will be swallowed up by another group that is watching from somewhere.”
A place full of arrogance and self-righteousness.
A place beyond the sky.
My father is teaching me this.
The posture I must take to prepare for the power I must protect and lead.
“So the leader must be arrogant and self-righteous. Do you want to kill? Then kill. If you want to have, take it. Don’t let anyone look down on you. Look down with a serious attitude. That is the path you should take.”
I was lost in thought for a while, my vision unfocused.
This is a question that will be asked countless times in the future.
Am I a sectarian or a religious person?
What do I desire and what do I aim for?
What is my cause?
It was a chaos that would strike from time to time like an arrow suddenly flying in from the forest, even if it was not shown.
Arrogance and self-righteousness.
A decision without regrets.
A shallow concern.
My focus returned, and I spoke with a lighter and more composed mind.
“First… … I have to erase the heavenly palace.”
My father smiles as if he is satisfied.
“Okay then.”
“Myunggyo will go to the Central Plains.”

“If you want.”
“There will be a war. I will not back down. If there are people who need to be erased… … I will erase them.”
“Good.”
“I will go to Cheonma-dong.”
“Go away.”
“Father, go to the West.”
“Why?”
What’s that expression?
“This is my intention as a leader.”
“You taught me something useless.”
“Leave a personal letter to the anonymous person. Tell them that you are leaving. Tell them that you will hand over the dragon body when you return. It will be reduced to ashes, so they won’t be able to check if the dragon body is still there.”
“The nameless are skilled in sorcery. Even if it is a light promise, they are bound by it and cannot easily escape.”
“I know. You pay with my life. That will do.”
Now all the circumstances are clear. That’s what Moo-myeong said to me at Seonghwa Palace.
‘Resent, resent again. Your father sacrificed you and your family for his own sake.’
But you were wrong.
My father did it not for his own sake but according to my will.
“You have never had a disciple in your life. This time, when you go to the Western Regions, teach them and raise them. Then, after three years, you can quietly return to Cheonsan.”
“They say that the Blood Palace has ties to the Western Regions, so let’s look into it.”
“Yal Yu-cheon is the one who will collude with Cheongung. Meet Yal Yu-jin.”
“Yaluljin? Are you talking about the eldest son of the Bloodless Princess?”
“Yes. He is the one who owes me. Whenever you come back, just say that I am Cheong of Heukhwaseong.”
My father nodded softly. Then I spoke in detail about the Danjeonghak and Dongbang, who had been in danger when I was learning the Book of Life and Death, and about Hansoso and Hyulra.
To save them. And to tell them to leave Cheonsan.
“But all of this only makes sense if you can return.”
I know.
Obviously, going into the future is absurd, but there is one thing that stands out.
“I will return. No matter how long it takes, I will definitely return. So… … .”
I looked into my father’s eyes, which contained only me, and continued speaking in a lowered tone.
“Stay safe. Until I get back.”
My father nodded silently, and I bowed and went out of Gwangmyeongjeon.
As I opened the door, I faintly heard my father’s voice.
“… … It’ll take a long time. See you later, son.”
Yes, see you again, Father.
*As I came out of Gwangmyeongjeon, the rain stopped and the sky was clear, transparent and refreshing.
Take a deep breath and you’ll feel a sense of relief.
“You are the head of the small group!”
When I turned my head at the sound of the voice calling me, I saw Yaul-tak running towards me with eyes as sharp as a magpie’s.
You really are a hard one to get rid of. You appear whenever I forget about you.
“What’s all the fuss about?”
“No, I’m not surprised that you suddenly disappeared and then came here on horseback, making a lot of noise. Yes?”
“Lower your voice. It’s noisy.”
“Hey, look, look. I knew this would happen. I’m an idiot for worrying unnecessarily. Seriously, an idiot!”
When I looked at the appearance of the guy who was expressing his enthusiasm, he was drenched in sweat and his shoes were not the right size.
I asked with a smirk.
“Were you worried about me?”
“No, then why don’t you do it? Even a husband who leaves home leaves behind a letter. I guess a guard dog would be better than me.”
“You’re not my wife, are you? Well… … and you’re better than a dog.”
“what.”
“At least it’s not a throwaway dog.”
“That… is that a good thing to say? Why does it sound like an insult?”
Anyway, he doesn’t resemble my father or brother at all and is an innocent and naive guy. I walked with the corners of my mouth raised.
“There’s nothing special to overlook… … but isn’t he a second-in-command?”
Don’t laugh. I’m afraid of getting more attached.
“Hehehe… … Uhehehe! But where have you been? You’re going to Somyeong Palace now, right? Where else are you going?”
“It doesn’t go far.”
“What? You mean you’re going? How long has it been since you came here? You’re going again. I can’t go.”
Dadadak. Yaryultak ran towards me, spread his hands left and right, and blew out breath.
As soon as he started to grit his teeth, he lowered his eyes and lowered his arms.
“Yalutak.”
“No, uh… yes… if you have something to do, you should go. Okay… .”
“Take it.”
“yes?”
I took the light tablet out of my bosom and threw it.
Yalyutak, who had accepted it without thinking, stared at it blankly for a while before being startled and throwing it back on the floor.
“What, what?! Why are you giving this to me? It’s scary.”
“Hold it until I get back.”
“This is a… nameplate?”
I know. But if I see that before I even learn the Heavenly Demonic Art, I might fall into a state of magic.
I patted Yal-Tak on the shoulder and said as I passed by.
“Don’t be lazy, and continue to devote yourself to your cultivation until I return. The road you and I must take will be long and arduous.”
“You’re coming back…?”
“of course.”
I answered with a bright smile and started walking away.
He’s the kind of guy you can’t hate no matter how hard you try.
Thud, thud.
As I walked, I looked up at the sky and saw a brilliant ray of light spreading out as if to light the path.
I destroyed myself, and now I’m trying to destroy myself again.
This is my past and my present.
As the level of the Cheonma Shingong increases, the Oshinki grows stronger along with it.
So the only clue to returning to the original place is… … .
It is about overcoming the wall of composition and raising the Heavenly Demon God to the level of Ten Stars.
Kururururung!
The door to Cheonma-dong opened, and an unforgettable sight unfolded before my eyes.
As I took a deep breath and stepped inside, the light slowly faded and I was plunged into darkness.
I walked inside with familiar steps.
The luminous substance glowed softly, and as I reached the end, a hieroglyph-like engraving on the wall came into view.
“Cheonma Shingong… … .”
The latter half was still erased, but I slowly recalled the original text that I had already learned.
The source of magic and martial arts that reverses the heavens.
A mysterious extreme that the criminal’s common sense cannot possibly understand or allow.
You need to change your thinking.
You must empty your mind and immerse yourself in the Cheonma Shingong, just like when you first learned it.
I sat cross-legged and closed my eyes.
The days I had lived passed by like a revolving lantern, and I slowly, very slowly, performed the Cheonma Shingong in my head like a turtle passing by.
Once. No.
Twice. This is not it either.
Don’t be impatient, don’t think about anything.
That’s how I entered the realm of selflessness.
*One million seventy-six.
Since then, I have lost count of the time, have completely forgotten how much time has passed, and have completely forgotten where I am.
What’s the use of that?
In the first place, it didn’t matter how many times you did it.
What was important was how to do it.
But even after realizing this, I didn’t stop repeating the Cheonma Shingong.
No, I couldn’t stop.
It was because I didn’t have the confidence to face the harsh reality.
Reverse current.
Breaking the path that begins with life and ends with death, from death to life. From life to death. And back to life again.
It was necessary to break the most basic and fair law given to life.
The reason I am a pure-blooded person is because I was born with my upper abdomen opened by the Heavenly Demonic Art.
That is also the reason why I was able to borrow the power of the Heavenly Demon.
But in return, the flesh gained a pulse.
But, how was it that I, who was a quantum mind, was able to learn the Heavenly Demonic Skill?
This is because only a dead body is the vessel that can receive it.
I was sure I would die here. I thought I was possessed by a demon.
But you were wrong.
He chose death to ascend to the ten stars.
Yes, that’s right.
In order to break the structure… …my spirit must die after my body.
The reason why Seonghwasaru exists in Oshinki.
The reason why no one has mastered the Heavenly Demon Art until now.
This is because it is something that only those who have entered the shackles of fate that turn like a hamster wheel can do.
So I… … .
Must commit suicide.
Phew!
My eyes shot open. The night light still emitted light, and the Heavenly Horse God carved into the wall looked down at me.
and…….
“Ghost… … .”
The evil spirit, swaying with black flames, was facing me again.
‘It’s been a long time.’
At his trembling tone, I nodded with a sincere smile.
“It took a long time.”
‘Was it hard?’
“No… … . Yeah, a little bit.”
‘It’s okay to stop like this.’
“That would be too unfair.”
‘It could be a harder road.’
“I know. But… … I don’t regret it.”
‘I see.’
“yes.”
The ghost’s murmur grew louder. It seemed as if it was nodding its head.
I walked to the end of the wall, chuckling and holding a small stone in my hand.
And he carved the words as if he was waving a flag.
【After death, life will follow.】
This saying means that you have to endure a crisis to become stronger.
This is what I first encountered in Cheonma-dong.
At that time, I thought it was my last desperate attempt and hope… … .
Now I understand.
This refers to the latter half of the Cheonma Shingong that has disappeared.
Two deaths.
And the dog.
It will take me a long time to realize this when I enter this body again.
Just like I did.
I turned around with a bright smile.
The evil spirits are stirring.
He spoke to me in a tone more friendly than anyone else, as if he was leading me.
‘Let’s go back, Kak-ah.’
Thank you for coming with me and I’m sorry I didn’t recognize you.
Whee… … .
“Let’s go, to where we were.”
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The flames of the devil engulfed my body, and my consciousness faded away into the flames.
I am…….
I was reincarnated into the body of a demonic cult leader.
and.
Will be reincarnated again.
Maybe forever.
*Myeonggyo Ilbong Cheonma-dong
“Ugh… … .”
My eyes opened.
Clearly, he was poisoned, his blood flow was blocked, and he closed his eyes in excruciating pain.
It was definitely like that. I thought I was dead. But gradually, my senses began to return strangely.
“Is this a dream… … ?”
My back was cold, and my vision was blurred, with a gray rock ceiling. My body felt heavy, and my once full danjeon was empty.
“Ugh… … .”
I tried to get up.
I sat there for a while, completely out of my mind. I was so confused.
But as time went by, I could feel more alive.
“Were you kidnapped? At least you survived.”
I felt relieved and let out a deep sigh.
“But where is this place?”
Given the circumstances, it was clear that he had been kidnapped.
“Zhuge Liang? Hwasanpa? Or maybe Sadoyeon?”
There were many who were suspicious, but it was not easy to figure out.
But it doesn’t matter who it is.
“I will make sure that you regret letting me live. I will definitely make sure that you regret it.”
I will definitely find it.
I will definitely pay you back.
