Chapter 145 : The Heavenly Demon Divine Cult Lifts Its Seal (1)
Chapter 145 : The Heavenly Demon Divine Cult Lifts Its Seal (1)
Inside the cave, there was a long passage. I followed Braha, who was walking with long strides. After a while, a huge cavern appeared.
From above, a single ray of light was shining down, and when I looked up, the top was open.
Even looking around, it didn't feel like it was artificially made.
Besides, the musty smell that I kept smelling.
When I rubbed my hand on the wall, black ash came off.
'Wow, these bastards are crazy.'
I never imagined they would make such a place inside a volcano. The only fortunate thing was that it was a dormant volcano after a volcanic eruption.
Still, in the sense that it could erupt again at any time, this could be called an active volcano. Making a meeting place in such a place was a thought that a normal person could not have.
In the center, there was a circular table made of stone, and around it, there were twelve chairs also made of stone.
And there was a passage in the direction where each chair was placed.
Just like the place we came from.
'This way, I won't be able to tell where the opponent is coming from.'
Also, since there are twelve passages, even if one place is discovered, it would be easy to escape.
Perhaps because we were the first to arrive, no one was seated. Braha walked with long strides and sat on the chair in front of the passage.
I stood behind Braha.
After a while, a presence was felt from another passage.
A kid wearing a rabbit mask appeared cheerfully. Behind him, there was a man also wearing a rabbit mask, and since he was looking at me, I looked back at him. The kid sat on the chair in front of his passage and then stared at us again and greeted us.
"Hello?"
"..."
When Braha was silent, the rabbit mask spoke to me.
"Hello!"
"Yeah. Hello?"
When I returned the greeting, the rabbit mask no longer paid attention to us.
After a while, several presences were felt at the same time. The number was a total of 5.
Swish.
With the sound of footsteps, five people wearing masks appeared.
They were people wearing masks of a cow, a tiger, a horse, a pig, and a snake.
Among them, I looked carefully at the person wearing the snake mask. A flapping arm. It seemed I knew who one of the five was.
After the five people sat in their respective seats, and no one else came even after waiting, the meeting began.
The content of the meeting was so full of jargon that I couldn't even understand it. Of course, Braha was of no help either.
-Do you know what this is about?
-I don't.
-Then what are you thinking about now?
-I'm thinking about what to eat for dinner.
I could see why Tianzhu had been ruined. Because a guy like this was sitting at the top.
I recalled the reason I had come here again and looked carefully at the people sitting in each seat.
My junior sister should be among them.
If my junior sister was with the Chaotic Heavenly Society, she would be at least a law enforcement officer.
But no matter how much I looked, there was no one who looked like my junior sister.
'Hmm. Then does that mean my junior sister is among those who haven't come here?'
There were a total of 12 seats, and among them, 5 were empty.
Just when I was wondering how to approach this, a conversation was going on.
The person wearing the cow mask opened his mouth.
"I heard you messed up the Righteous Faction's matter this time. Both the Black Heaven and the Blue Heaven, you can't even handle a weakened Righteous Faction, you must be having a hard time these days."
The person wearing the rabbit mask grinned and took the words.
"The Blue Heaven failed even after joining forces with the Red Heaven. Isn't that why they're both too embarrassed to come?"
From their conversation, I could learn about two of the five who were not here.
'Red Heaven and Blue Heaven.'
"Hehehe. Is that all? The Gray Heaven was also there, I think. To think that three heavens united and still failed, pfft!"
'One more, the Gray Heaven.'
"That's right! Wasn't the Black Heaven on bad terms with the Blue Heaven? Say something. Now that you're a one-armed cripple, you can't even talk?"
The snake mask, Sa Cho-hon, who had been listening all along, opened his mouth for the first time.
"Watch your words. Unless you want to eat only porridge for the rest of your life in addition to the teeth you lost when you were hit by me last time."
"Hehehe. Do you still think you're the real power of the Black Heaven? The rumor has already spread, about what your position is in the Black Heaven. You, you're about to be pushed out of the law enforcement officer position, right?"
Sa Cho-hon stood up.
The opponent, the horse mask, also stood up from his seat without losing.
'No! Weren't they on the same side? Why are they fighting among themselves?'
I watched with shining eyes, wondering when the two would fight. Just then, the rabbit mask intervened.
"Then, is this meeting over? I'm leaving."
The rabbit mask, without even listening to the answer, stood up from his seat. And then he greeted me.
"See you later."
"Yeah. Sure."
When the rabbit mask left, the rest also left one by one.
I quickly sent a telepathic message to Braha.
Because the reason I came here today was not just to secretly attend the meeting.
-Let's contact the snake mask first.
-Alright.
Braha, who had stood up from his seat, walked straight to the two who were fighting and then spoke to the snake mask without warning.
"I have something to say."
"What's this bastard?"
The horse mask, who had been suddenly ignored, was about to put his hand on Braha's shoulder with killing intent. I put my sword to the horse mask's neck and opened my mouth.
"That's enough. If you move a little more, I'll cut you."
"Hah! Get lost, you small fry!"
The horse mask rotated his body and flew a punch at me.
Slice.
I swung my sword as it was.
An arm falling off.
His expression wouldn't be visible now because he was wearing a mask, but I grinned at Sa Cho-hon, who was my top priority contact, and opened my mouth.
"Mr. Sa Cho-hon. With this, you have a brother."
"My arm! My arm!"
"Since Mr. Sa Cho-hon was cut first, you must be the older brother. Congratulations on getting a younger brother!"
"This bastard dared to take my arm!"
"Haa. What are you again?"
Sa Cho-hon, who let out a sigh.
Then he emitted the overwhelming pressure I had felt in Hainan at that time. Sa Cho-hon grabbed the remaining arm of the horse mask, who was rampaging in front of him, and then twisted it.
"Aaaargh! These guys! Do you know who I am! I am...!"
Unfortunately, the horse mask could not finish his words. Because this time too, Braha had separated the opponent's neck and body.
No! You can at least listen to the end of his words! Isn't this too cold!
Although it's not something I, who had cut off his arm, should say. Still, I didn't have any intention of killing him.
Braha, whether the horse mask died or not, was faithful to his role.
"I have something to say. O law enforcement officer of the Black Heaven."
Sa Cho-hon took off his mask and roughly ran his hand through his hair.
"In my entire life, the number of people I have told my real name to can be counted on one hand. And among them, I killed two myself."
Sa Cho-hon ignored Braha and came straight to me and asked.
"Who are you?"
Braha carried out his role very faithfully.
"I have something to say! O law enforcement officer of the Black Heaven!"
Perhaps Braha's head was full of the thought that if he failed his mission, the gukbap might fly away.
I calmed Braha down for now.
-I'll definitely buy you gukbap after this is over.
At that, Braha immediately became quiet.
As the situation seemed to be sorted out, Sa Cho-hon looked at me intently.
"Are you the Heavenly Lord of the Yellow Heaven?"
"No. He's the Heavenly Lord, right?"
Braha answered immediately.
"I am the Yellow Heaven Lord!"
"That's a lie. There's no way a simple guy like that is a Heavenly Lord."
Originally, people tend to see only what they want to see and hear only what they want to hear. I gave up on trying to persuade Sa Cho-hon.
"I am definitely the Heavenly Lord of the Yellow Heaven!"
Although Braha didn't seem to have that intention.
Sa Cho-hon still ignored Braha and came to me.
The reason I had called Sa Cho-hon was not only because he was the only person I knew among them, but also because I had found a loophole to dig into only from Sa Cho-hon during the conversation at the meeting just now.
I proposed one thing to Sa Cho-hon.
"Let's make a deal."
"Why should I agree?"
"I heard your position in the Black Heaven is precarious."
"That's none of your business."
"Sa Cho-hon. I will do my best to help you secure your position in the Black Heaven. In return, I would like you to find one person."
Swish.
Sa Cho-hon came one step closer. If I hadn't been wearing a mask, it would have been a distance where his bad breath would have been a little troublesome.
"How can I trust you?"
I looked at Braha. Braha said.
"I am the Yellow Heaven Lord!"
"I can't trust that bastard."
I then shrugged my shoulders and continued.
"I am the law enforcement officer of the Yellow Heaven!"
"Reveal your identity first."
"I see. Alright."
I took off my mask. And I greeted him again.
"Long time no see?"
"You are?"
"I had my reasons at that time. Haha!"
"I see. So that's what happened. Hehe."
Hmm? I think he's misunderstanding something.
*
Since Hainan, Sa Cho-hon had not been able to forget the events of that time. Although that time was quite impressive or shocking, it was because it was a very exceptional situation.
There are numerous martial artists in this world, but the number of martial artists who have entered the supreme realm of the Profound Realm is less than thirty.
The Heavenly Lords and law enforcement officers of each heaven.
The leaders of the Demonic Cult, the Blood Cult, and the Asura Cult.
The Heavenly Emperor, the Sword Emperor, and the Divine Monk of the Righteous Faction.
The heads of each of the four forces outside the Central Plains.
These were the masters of the Profound Realm that the Chaotic Heavenly Society had identified, and the Chaotic Heavenly Society had designated them as special alert targets and was grasping their identities and every move.
In other words, it was impossible for a master of the Profound Realm to suddenly fall from the sky.
The words that he was the successor of the Sword Emperor were of course a lie.
The representative sword art of the Sword Emperor contains a cold qi. But the guy's last attack contained an enormous amount of yang qi.
Yang qi and cold qi are opposing energies that cannot coexist.
Who on earth is that guy?
How did he appear in this place that only the Chaotic Heavenly Society knows?
If his prediction was correct, he thought they would surely meet again, and he had told him his name.
To surely kill him the next time they met.
And the prediction was exactly right.
A master of the Profound Realm does not fall from the sky.
If it's a master of the Profound Realm that he doesn't know, it's only the guys from other affiliations of the Chaotic Heavenly Society.
"So you were the Yellow Heaven."
"W-Well, yes."
Although it wasn't at that time, it is now.
"Hehehe. Are you trying to give me a disease and then a cure? Why, have you come to mock me, who has fallen because of you?"
"I was sorry for cutting off your arm at that time. I didn't know things would turn out like this."
"Forget it. It happened because I was careless at that time. So, what can you do for me?"
"I will do my best to help you become a law enforcement officer."
"How?"
"I heard you're on bad terms with the Blue Heaven. I'll give you the head of the Blue Heaven Lord. Wouldn't that be enough to protect your position?"
"What should I give you?"
"I would like you to find one person."
"Who?"
"The young leader of the Heavenly Demon Divine Cult, Yoo Soo-ah. I only know that she is somewhere in the Chaotic Heavenly Society now."
"The Heavenly Demon Divine Cult. I have a rough idea."
"Yeah? Really? What is it?"
"This is a deal. If you fulfill your promise first, I will also tell you."
"You cheap bastard. I even made you a younger brother!"
"That younger brother just now, the guy over there killed him."
"Let's go! To take the head of the Blue Heaven Lord!"
"Haa! Does the Yellow Heaven originally have no thoughts?"
"I am the Yellow Heaven Lord. I have thoughts!"
"I am the law enforcement officer of the Yellow Heaven."
"It seems not. For now, follow me. I have a rough idea of where the Blue Heaven Lord is hiding."
