Episode 448: There is a way, but (1)
The summit of Hoaksan Mountain, half an hour away from the Nassau Plain.
After arriving at the destination, Soso went straight towards the wooden house in front of him.
It was an old and shabby house built in nature, but it was fairly well maintained.
When they passed a small vegetable garden and a well, Soso stopped. Darong, who was secretly following behind, also crouched down.
It was because of the sounds of conversation coming from inside the house.
‘What are you two talking about like that?’
Before going in, Soso quietly listened to his parents’ conversation.
“Why on earth did you bring this person with you? “What if I step out and get discovered by an Arhat?”
“It would have been fine if I had taken it out secretly. As you know, my daughter is the one who received help. “I couldn’t just let him die.”
“Then what are you doing? No matter how you look at it, it’s no different from a living corpse.”
“Our Soso won’t think that way. “It looks like we just arrived, so Yeon-mae please explain well.”
Soso, who had been quietly listening outside, ran over and opened the door.
bang-!
“What are you two talking about now!?”
The man and woman who were talking at the entrance had embarrassed expressions.
The middle-aged man with a neat and tidy appearance dressed in a white jangsam was Somu, who had been active in the martial arts group under the nickname Geomseong (劍聖) a long time ago.
He later joined the government army and left behind a legend as the strongest military officer in history, and his reputation was so great that a statue of him was erected in Jangan Fortress.
And the woman next to him was wearing silk clothes embroidered with plum blossoms and looked proud and elegant.
Her identity is Seonghwa Seonghwa, the Okhwa Goddess who was a high-ranking member of the Demonic Cult a long time ago.
When they were young, they were famous for being the best music experts in the world, but both of them were now forgotten people in the world.
“Uh, we just went there to secretly make sure you were okay.”
“okay. “I went there just in case. I had no intention of deceiving you.”
The two of them had promised their daughter that they would not participate in this battle on the Nassau Plain due to the internal injuries they received from Arhat.
But how can you just watch from behind?
He seemed to be paying attention because his daughter found out that he had been secretly following her.
But for Soso, those issues were not important right now.
“Why is he here now?”
A familiar boy was lying on a bed in the back, wrapped in bandages.
Although his appearance was unmistakable, it was clear that he was Elder Yang Goe, who led Cheonyuhoe.
Somu scratched his head and smiled, as if he was embarrassed.
“Did you hear what was going on outside? I was hiding and watching from the beginning, and even long after he fell, he held on without dying. “My father brought me here in case he could be saved.”
Geomhu, who commanded the martial arts world of an era, was just a child in front of his parents.
Soso was very happy and hugged his father tightly.
“Thank you so much, Dad! good job. Seol will really like it.”
“If you’re talking about that kid, you’re saying he’s more qualified than you.”
“Yes, you didn’t see the end? “I completed the Unwritten Lion God’s Skill and fought with an Arhat in battle!”
Somu turned around after seeing her daughter retreat, so she did not see Yoo Seol’s appearance.
He and his wife, Yeon Seo-hwa, were very happy.
“It’s true? So what happened?”
“This is very encouraging news.”
Soso answered with a brighter face.
“I’ll tell you the details later. “We decided to compete again at the Bodhi Palace in Heaven.”
Seonghwa-hwa grinned and muttered.
“That old monster must have been very excited. “He must have been itching to not be able to fight for at least three hundred years.”
Soso nodded in agreement and walked towards Yujinsan, who was lying on the bed.
“But how is Elder Yanggoi still alive? “I was obviously fatally injured by an Arhat.”
“We added a little effort, but in the end, the jewelry he had was saved. “Where did you get such a precious thing?...”
Soso immediately realized what Yeonseonghwa’s words meant.
A brightly colored necklace hanging around Eugene San’s neck.
At first glance, it was not an ordinary rare item.
At some point, Darong, who was lying down, suddenly stood up. It must have felt bad to even listen to it from the side.
Somu also frowned and eventually stood up.
“Let’s go for a walk for a while.”
Somu left the place with Darong and started looking around Hoaksan Mountain.
* * *
The father and daughter’s efforts toward Mt. Yujin continued ceaselessly.
I’ve been playing Cheonsalso without stopping for five days.
Even though it was taking a toll on their bodies, the two did not stop playing together. This is because there was still no sign of Yu Jin-san waking up.
Somu and Darong were watching the scene from afar with concern.
It was a long time later.
Cry-!
Darong was the first to notice the slight change and sent a signal.
This is because Yu Jin-san’s whole body began to tremble.
Somu, who was watching, stood up from his seat and approached the father and daughter.
“Isn’t there something wrong with this?”
Soso also stopped playing the tungso and asked Yeonseonghwa.
“What should I do, mother? “It seems like the condition has gotten worse?”
After hesitating for a moment, she took her hand away from the Chilhyeongeum and said in confusion.
“Oh, I guess this is a big problem.”
Blood was pouring out of Eugene San’s ears.
My whole body was convulsing, and a groan of pain came from my mouth.
It looked as if he would stop breathing even after a moment.
Soso, who had become thoughtful, asked urgently.
“Then what should we do?”
At this moment, everyone was sure of one thing.
Rather than helping him, the sound attack that continued for five days pushed him further into a corner.
“You probably won’t die. “There is one other way, but...”
Yeon Sung-hwa trailed off, perhaps because he was not keen on that method.
However, he could not ignore his daughter who was crying.
“What is that? “You have to try something.”
“There is one Dafa that was banned in Wulin a long time ago. “The odds of it going well are not high, but if it does, you will gain enlightenment and wake up.”
At that time, Somu, who was looking at Yujin Mountain, noticed something and turned his head to ask.
“Are you talking about the Great Law of Heavenly Spirit? If I fail, will I die or wake up as a murderer? “The success rate is not that high.”
“There is no other way than this. “But I don’t know if I can get the necessary ingredients.”
There was no way to stop once we got this far.
Soso asked her with earnest eyes.
“What ingredients do you need?”
“The moment Dafa is implemented, the demonic energy within will run rampant. “You need Yeongnocho and Han Bingseok to suppress it.”
“If that’s the case, I’ll find out. “You can probably get it at the drawing room in Socheonseong.”
Even if that wasn’t the case, before implementing the Great Law, I had to go to Yin Kai and inform him first,
so I had to stop by Socheonseong, where the headquarters of the Heavenly Yuhoe was located, at least once.
“But there’s one more thing I can’t get.”
As expected, carrying out the Great Law could not have been easy.
First, you have to hear what it is.
“Something you can’t get?”
“huh. I need a spirit stone with great power. “It’s not even close to being the case for most spirit creatures, at least...”
At that moment, Darong, who had been quietly watching, flinched in shock.
Soso asked, stroking Darong’s chin with both hands as if telling him not to worry.
“Dalong. You didn’t think we were going to steal it from you, did you? don’t worry. Even if that wasn’t the case, I thought of a way to save it.”
Seonghwahwa, who was watching, tilted his head and asked.
“Where do you get that precious spirit stone?”
“The weapon that the Yin-Yang Twin Monsters previously used is in Socheonseong. “How about the Spiritual Stones of the Divine Beast contained in the Twin Dragon Spear? There are as many as two.”
