Chapter 119

Chapter 119 - Unmoving Mind (2)

With the thoughts of the exploding demon, my mind flashed and my head thumped.

The silent darkness stretches for a long time and encroaches on the surrounding space.

My heart started beating wildly, and the fear imprinted like an instinct spread throughout my body.

Fear and dread creep in.

Reason is paralyzed and thoughts are erased.

The devil's thought penetrates once again between the consciousness that seems to fly far away.

The devil's thoughts were certainly on a different level from Draug's.

Even Seo-joon was dizzy at the long roaring sound like the tinnitus in hell.

Is that why?

[There is only one real question in life.]

Shakyamuni's words, which had not been heard at all, reached Seo-jun's ears.

[Suicide.]

[Is life really worth living? This is the ultimate question of life.]

[The rest is just details. Then I will ask.]

[Why do you not end your life?]

.

.

It was over.

After that, I could no longer hear Shakyamuni's voice.

“what...?”

Seojun was a little embarrassed.

That's because it's never been like this before.

To be precise, this was the first time Shakyamuni had ever asked a question.

Moreover, Shakyamuni's question itself was quite strange.

What are your reasons for not committing suicide?

Just in case, Seojun checked the progress of the Shakyamuni lecture.

However, it did not rise from 49.9%.

“what...?”

Seojun tilted his head.

And right at that moment.

───────────!!!

The devil's thoughts began to explode again.

At the same time, the voice of Shakyamuni was heard again and again like an hallucination.

[Why don't you end your life?]

But the content remained the same.

And the progress of the lecture didn't go up any more.

“Could it be... that you have to answer the question to get over 50%?”

So Seo-joon naturally had no choice but to think this way.

If you think about it, in the meantime, the progress of the lecture went up simply by listening to the lecture.

Of course, to be precise, it wasn't just listening.

It is because the progress rate of the lectures increased only when you deeply understand and accept the contents of Shakyamuni's lectures.

However, it was the first time that Shakyamuni had asked questions like this rather than giving a sermon. Somehow, in order to pass 50%

, it seemed that I had to gain enlightenment myself,

not simply listen and understand .

“Hmm...”

Seo-joon couldn't help but fall into deep trouble.

And the devil who watched Seo-joon like that.

- Kiik...?

The devil's expression began to go blank without even realizing it.

It is also true that the thought he emits now is the top layer of the world of desire where he resides.

It was because it was a thought brought from the demonic heaven of the sixth heaven.

The thoughts there were so mad that ordinary humans would go

crazy just by facing them, and even perish.

“Oh, wait a minute. ‘Cause I need to think Keep your thoughts alive.”

But what is this now...

Of course, Seo-joon's face was frowning.

But it is madness, fear, fear.

These feelings seemed quite far away.

Just to the extent of facing a headache?

In a word, it meant that to Seo-jun, Macheon's thoughts were nothing more than a headache.

-......

The devil is at a loss for words.

“What is this...”

And it was not very different from spirituality.

Spirituality was also because he personally felt how terrible the thoughts bursting out now were.

Even this was just a side note.

The place where these terrible thoughts are headed is none other than Seo-jun.

Spirituality was to the point of giving goosebumps even though it was facing the thoughts that escaped around it.

“Why don't you commit suicide? What question is this?”

But what I see now is...

And that was the moment.

- Kiik?

The devil, who had finally recognized the existence of spirituality, tilted his head.

And then I smiled and smiled.

───────────!!!

Suddenly, the direction of the thoughts that had been ejected from Seo-jun began to turn to Young-seong.

Young-seong noticed that and hurriedly raised his energy.

“...!”

But even for such a spirituality, the demonic heaven's thoughts were a bit too much for them.

“Keuk...!”

In the end, spirituality was immersed in that terrible thought and stumbled.

Seo-jun was able to endure without incident because he had Shakyamuni's immovable mind, but spirituality was not.

As a hero of Cataclysm, the spiritual level of spirituality was quite outstanding.

It wasn't to a considerable degree, but there was almost no one to follow.

However, compared to Shakyamuni's unsteady mind, to be honest, it was nothing compared to him.

Of course, in terms of handling mental abilities, Seo-jun could not follow Young-seong.

However, in terms of the status itself, on the contrary, Youngseong could not follow Seojun.

“Youngseong-nim?!”

“It’s okay... it’s okay.”

Still, is spirituality spirituality?

Spirituality did not lose consciousness even though it was engulfed by the devil's thoughts.

It seemed that the clearing of the energy, albeit little by little, pushed away the thought.

“Kuhh...!”

Still, the suffering remained the same.

Seo-joon turned his head and looked at the devil.

however.

sigh.

For some reason, the devil was looking at Seo-joon with a deep smile.

It was as if he had found something he had forgotten for a while.

just as expected. In an instant

,

the devil's body turned into smoke and disappeared from Seo-jun's senses.

“......what?”

Seeing such a demon, Seo-joon was immediately taken aback.

It was also because Chiron's senses did not feel the existence of the devil at all.

Can't feel the presence even with Chiron's senses...?

no it couldn't be

There was no way the demon could escape Chiron's senses.

You may be able to fake it for a while, but it is impossible to escape completely.

Then there is only one answer.

the demon escaped

“I am I never thought the devil would escape.”

Seojun shrugged in embarrassment.

It was because even so, I couldn't get out of this dungeon.

Besides, since he has already revealed his existence once, he will not be able to hide again.

Getting caught is only a matter of time...

‘Wait.'

Seo-joon paused at the sudden thought.

Then, he turned his head and looked around, and only Young-seong came into Seo-jun's field of vision.

No matter how much I searched, I couldn't find a single being.

“Youngseong. Where is the spirit?”

none other than the existence of a divine spirit.

The devil had been aiming for the divine spirit from the beginning.

I still don't know why.

However, the devil was aiming for the divine spirit from the beginning.

So, the reason why Seo-jun ran first was to prevent the devil from doing other tricks.

But now, the appearance of the invisible spirit.

The devil's laugh that just smirked.

If the devil for a moment encroached upon the spirit of spirituality.

What if you knew the location of the divine spirit?

“I came alone because I don't want my spirit to be consumed by that terrible thought...”

Tadak.

Before Seo-joon could finish his words, he kicked himself and ran forward.

At the same time, Chiron's senses were expanded for an instant to find the location of the spirit.

Then one corner of the senses.

I was able to recognize the place where morale and spiritual energy were intertwined.

Seo-joon stepped on Jang Sam-bong's steps and moved quickly.

where it arrived.

There was no demon to be seen there.

To be precise, the shape of the devil could not be seen.

In addition to the huge body, the large horns on the head.

Eyes burning red.

The pure white hair, which would be insufficient to say pure white, is now dyed blacker than anything else.

Among all the spirits, there was no deity, the noblest and holiest soul.

Only the most filthy and evil spirits, evil spirits, were established.

“Unbelievable! What a divine spirit!”

Youngseong, who had followed Seojun, exclaimed in surprise at the appearance of such a spirit.

again.

Every step the deer takes, the spirit of death that has engulfed the surroundings bursts out at once.

A son-in-law engulfed by evil energy and a jet-black aura radiating out around him.

“Aaaaaaaa!!”

Suddenly, Young-seong collapsed on the spot with a scream.

“Youngseong!”

Seojun hurriedly supported Youngseong's body.

It was known to the world as spiritual practice, but it seemed that it was not simply for that purpose.

The corruption of spirituality was not made only by the thoughts of evil spirits.

Evil spirits were merely germinated and were the result of spirituality itself.

seeds of doubt.

The agony of being a cataclysm hero.

And Seo-jun, who listened to such spirituality.

“......”

Seo-joon couldn’t say anything at the words of such spirituality.

It was because there was nothing wrong with spirituality.

last 10 years.

It was because Seo-jun knew the cruelty of the world better than anyone else when he was determined to become a professional hunter.

The world is not beautiful.

dirty and nasty

I'm having such a hard time, but other people are laughing and talking and being happy.

Perhaps, as Youngseong said, the times of cataclysm might have been better.

Back then, at least I could feel the happiness of being alive.

But now I feel the pain of being alive.

Every day, people who are thinking about ending their lives appear one after another.

Seo-joon also... was like that.

So Seo-joon seemed to know now.

Seo-joon seemed to know about such spiritual troubles.

[Why don't you end your life?]

Why did Shakyamuni ask such a question?

now

now i get it I will finally know

Seojun firmly gripped Longinus's spear.

emotions sink

the mind calms down

My heart beats as if it would explode at any moment, but my head is colder than anything else.

seojun says:

“Why do you only look at those people?”

Then, Seo-joon took a step toward spirituality.

Then, the spirits attack Seo-jun.

Seojun slowly approached Youngseong, wielding the spear of Longinus.

“As Youngseong said, the world is not very beautiful. the pain of not being able to speak. Many people die because of it. But...”

Ka-ang!

“Even though life is difficult, there are many people who endure today’s pain and tomorrow’s exhaustion while rescuing happiness in everyday life, even though it is small.”

Koo Goo Goo Goo!

A sharp sound reverberates over the exploding earth.

“There are not only strong people in the world that you have to fight against, nor are there only weak people who you need to help.”

All people live with the weight of the day.

And the weight of that day is too heavy. It's so heavy that I can't breathe.

Will I be able to survive the day? It feels like my heart is being crushed.

Even after the day is over, my heart is weighed down again by the day that will come again tomorrow.

“People don’t have time to be sad.”

It's not about ignoring the suffering of others.

They just don't have the strength to grieve for others.

They just don't have the energy to suffer for the unjustly deceased.

“Because if you don’t suffer each day, you can’t live a day. people who died unjustly. people who have lost their lives. A lot. It's sad. So, let's say that Young Seong-nim mourns for them instead. By the way...”

Ka——Ah!

“How long are you going to be sad?”

“what?”

“Until no one dies unfairly again? Until no one is unhappy?”

Roaring!

Ka-ang!

“Isn’t Youngseong-nim having a hard time?”

People must continue today.

Like today, tomorrow, like tomorrow, and the next day.

You can only live if you continue like that.

They live in fear of when that tomorrow will collapse.

that's life life to survive.

In it, people find small but pleasure.

Have a drink. playing a gambling table

Sing songs and go for a walk in the streets.

Smile while watching the scenery beautifully dyed.

that is allowed to us.

I've collected a lot of things so that I can barely die.

is our hope.

“It is a precious happiness.”

which.

“It is the happiness created by none other than Youngseong.”

A daily life restored by ending the era of cataclysm.

It made me feel that it was a daily life in a world where only survival was longed for.

But why

“Are you trying to only look at those who are sick and suffering?”

“...!!”

In an instant, the red aura began to disappear from the pupils of spirituality.

Then, the evil spirit, noticing the hint, began pouring out more and more thoughts.

But just then.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

A tremendous energy began to emanate from Seo-joon's whole body.

It instantly purified the thoughts pouring from the evil spirits.

An ethereal yet mysterious energy continues to emanate from Seo-joon.

Spirituality was able to get a glimpse of Seo-jun's endless spiritual world.

“......!”

Also, spirituality was able to see a certain existence in it, albeit vaguely.

Somewhere, a calm voice pierces the ears of spirituality like hallucinations.

[Don't turn your eyes away from that happiness. Do not turn your eyes away from that happiness and deny life.]

[Goodness is so corrupted.]

Not by evil, but by the same goodness.

To the contradiction that the same good could not keep good.

The line is corrupted.

[Life is like a flower road that you walk backwards. Only after you have passed it will you know that the road was beautiful.] [

Do not forget that the road has become a flower garden because you walked that road.]

“Ah... ah... !”

The eyes of spirituality become calm.

The red-tinged eyes disappeared without a trace.

The new type of spirituality collapses on the floor.

and.

T-ring!

< Sakyamuni's lecture progress rate 63.6% (+13.7%) >

The progress rate of Shakyamuni's lecture, which had stopped, began to rise.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

At the same time, the ethereal energy that had been emanating from Seo-jun began to explode once again.

And they began to spread out and cover the entire dungeon.

Ooh oh oh oh...!

Against that energy, the evil spirit poured out endless thoughts.

But for some reason, no matter how much I poured out my thoughts, I couldn't counter this aura.

It is not shaken by any thought or madness or fear.

Since the heart of the beginning is not shaken, nothing around it is swept away.

It just purifies again.

-!!!

The evil spirit's expression began to turn into astonishment.

Because the demon... had once encountered this power.

Those who exist far beyond the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

An existence that even the lord of the demonic sky did not dare to do.

Why is the power of that existence here...!

This was something that couldn't happen.

That power is something that humans can never have!

How dare you be a human!

oooooooooooo!!

The evil spirit squeezed out all its power and exploded its thoughts.

This thought that bursts out after uniting with the divine spirit was at a level comparable to that of the lord of the demonic sky.

but.

Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gung...!

A far transcendent power emanates from Seo-joon's whole body.

The evil spirit begins to be amazed at the source of its transcendental power.

The progress of the Sakyamuni River and the elevated level of the upper level field.

The power of the magical power that erupted from the three-tiered field was truly transcendent.

A power that far transcends causality.

Seo-joon trudged slowly toward the evil spirit.

- Kiki Kik...!

The evil spirit was crushed by its power and began to stagger backwards.

thump

Seo-joon grabbed the demon by the scruff of the neck.

The trembling eyes of evil spirits.

“You are neither.”

Seo-joon spat out his words.

“Physical is a piece of paper the moment your mental collapses.”

That moment.

───────────!!

The indefinable far-off power once again explodes through Seo-joon's whole body.

And it was purifying the essence of the evil spirit that was entangled with the divine spirit.

The evil spirit could neither escape nor resist its power.

Common sense and cognition. A mysterious power that transcends causality.

A power that made even the lord of the demons kneel.

Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah Kwah!!!

-Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

The uncontrollable enormous power that transcends cause and effect engulfs the evil spirit.

The source of its terrifying power pours down upon the demon.

An absolute being who opposes the gods in mythology.

A resident of the sixth heaven who dwells at the top of the desire realm.

That demon is

-Kieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

It was the moment when it disappeared without a trace.
