Episode 1077. Forever

The 7th line.

Opposite the Gyeophoeseon Army, far from the Xiahou World, there stood a line of fortresses built by the troops led by the Eastern Army, Western Army, and Zami Army.

They built planets using the stars in the galaxy as bricks, and stretched the planets to form small great walls. The power of the sun supported these great walls.

The Great Wall, which illuminates the galaxy, is made up of countless stars, so it shines brighter than the sun.

Just behind the first front line that was created in this way, there was a second front line of the same form. The soldiers there were led by Gu Su-gyeong and Jwa Song-am.

The third front is Dancheong and Han-gun, and the fourth is Bongho and Prince Ok.

Sangcheon-gun and Eonhwa were in charge of the fifth line, while Eungryong, Baektaek, and Byeokrak were in charge of the sixth line.

At the crossroads leading to the main continent of the 7th celestial realm, there were nine galaxies of great significance. The cosmic great wall built in each of these galaxies. The grandeur it displayed was greater than expected.

The problem was that the brain of the famous place had not yet withdrawn its power. The majority of the soldiers gathered from the Wonsak country and the Jejeong were consuls. Their skills were only at the same level as Geumseon. The possibility of them surviving in this battlefield, which was different from what they had experienced so far, where they moved the stars and turned them into generals, was low.

There were very few people who had reached the Four Heavens and Five Heavens of the Imperial Realm and were therefore not influenced by the Brain.

There were less than a hundred strong people with powers greater than the military junta that the Empire possessed. Fortunately, Unyoung led the military junta and joined the Empire’s forces, so it was possible to deploy the front line as it was now.

In addition, eleven adults, including Neunggi and Dongcheon, had come to the battlefield, each leading their own Dharma treasures and soldiers, and the divine horses led by Eungryong and Baektaek were also on the battlefield. Byeokrak was the same.

The strongest force that the Empire could muster had been brought out onto the battlefield. Only the teachers and students of Daehak Palace Academy remained behind.

The generals leading the soldiers, including Seongruwi, Bangchukji, Sawiyeon, and Jamijegun, wiped the sweat from their hands onto their clothes as they watched the stars in the distant universe lose their light one by one and disappear.

The fearful ships were quickly approaching the main continent of the Heavenly World, even swallowing up the sun, which was the brightest shining in the universe.

Behind the bulwark, the hermit was calming the tense soldiers and reorganizing the camp. In this battlefield, he was in charge of the auxiliary role of leading the soldiers while helping the bulwark.

Next to that nobleman was his adult disciple, Baekwolru.

They, who were So-woon’s disciples, naturally became distant from So-woon when he became the Emperor of Cheonsiwon. They had already reached the paradise a few years ago, but their efforts were in vain when Noeji appeared.

In the past, Imokga was called Seonggeomseon (???) and Baekwolru was called Cheondo Gongja (????) and joined as a member of the Cheondowon of Wonsak country.

Although their realm was only a small one, their skills were outstanding enough to assist the defense of the defense base.

“Mokga Death Penalty, if we lose our lives in this battle, will our souls be able to enter the Pantheon?”

Baekwolru tried to ease the tension by smiling and joking.

“Will our descendants remember us?”

The hermit spoke with determination after carefully checking every last soldier.

“No, that won’t happen. This war isn’t just a fight where tens of thousands die. Millions, maybe even everyone in the world, could lose their lives. In the midst of all that, there’s no way ordinary people like us could have our names listed in the Mansinjeon. There won’t be many people left who know the names of Imokga and Baekwolru. There might even be none at all.”

Baekwolru showed a look of genuine disappointment.

“Then do we become nameless gods?”

“That’s not it either.”

This time, the hermit made his statement. A question appeared on Baekwolru’s face.

“No one will remember us, but many will remember this war. Then, at least our descendants will not forget us because of the war. Our descendants will be proud of the fact that their ancestors fought bravely against enemies that could not be easily defeated to protect them.”

Baekwolru’s eyes welled up with tears at the words of Imokga, who had already taken their deaths as a done deal. However, a smile was on his lips.

“Yes, what we will do in the future will be passed down to future generations. To make them proud, I am ready to give my whole body.”

As soon as he shouted that, a swarm of fearsome beasts, like a swarm of locusts, rushed in.

With the shout of the commander, the first platoon of soldiers raised their weapons and rushed at the group of fearsome men.

The brightly shining castle, above which even brighter light burst out in explosions.

Baekwolru and Imokga each held their positions and spread out their swords. The sword they used was a simplified version of the first sword. The Saljin spread around them became one, forming another wall to protect Jangseong.

The group of fearsome warriors ignored the fat and charged forward. The sword light burst out and the bodies of the fearsome warriors rushing in from the front were split in half.

The swords of the East and West armies swung their swords and cut down countless enemies. However, the number of Gyeophoeseon was too great. And as the waves of Gyeophoeseon surged forward, their power grew stronger and stronger.

It was a matter of moments before the first front collapsed.

“Retreat! Retreat to the second front!”

Bangchukji, Sawiyeon, and Jami led the soldiers backwards while shouting like this, while in return, they stepped forward and blocked the strong enemies attacking the soldiers.

But already countless fearsome ships had passed them by and were heading towards the second front.

Baekwolru and Imokga were leading the soldiers and retreating to the second front. However, the retreat was not properly carried out as if they were stuck in the mud because the group of cowards chasing them held them back.

Eventually a clash occurred and their unit was quickly surrounded by a horde of fearsome warriors.

On the second front, someone was shouting on top of the wall.

“Those who are to survive must survive! Somehow shake off the pursuit of the enemies!”

“I will stay behind!”

Some of the soldiers who had been following Baekwolru volunteered to be bait and stayed behind. They went back the way they had come and rushed into the group of fearful men.

The hermit bit his lips as if he felt sorry for the soldiers who were sacrificing themselves. He still had the heavy responsibility of leading the soldiers, so he could not bring himself to turn back.

“Mokga Hyeongsa, when you return safely, please tell my family, my damn son, that I hope they will be proud that they are part of the Baekwolru family.”

Imokga turned his head with a puzzled expression and looked back. Baekwolru was already leading the soldiers who had retreated behind him.

“I want to become a person who will not be ashamed in front of future generations. So, Mokga Death Penalty, please spare at least one person who witnessed me like this and return home!”

The hermit clenched his teeth and looked forward again. He headed to the second front line with the surviving soldiers.

Behind the back of the hermit who was walking like that, the divine light displayed by the consuls who were prepared for death flashed.

Second front.

When Imokga returned with the surviving soldiers, Gu Su-gyeong and Jwa Song-am led them to a safe place and arranged for them to rest.

Jo Song-am clicked his tongue as he looked at the miserable condition of the soldiers.

“Master Su-gyeong, is there any point in dividing our already insufficient forces into nine groups?”

“It’s to catch the ankles of the fearful ships. If all the fearful ships that have retreated like that gather in one place, that will be enough. The more they gather, the better.”

At Gu Su-gyeong’s answer, Jo Song-am tilted his head as if he did not understand.

“What is that…? How are you going to stop a horde of hundreds of millions of fearsome beings?”

“We have to stop it.”

Gu Su-kyung said in a calm voice.

“Young-Young, before she comes, we have to tie up as many of the Cowardly Lines as possible.”

“Forever? What is that… … .”

Jo Song-am looked at Gu Su-gyeong with an expression that seemed even more confused, but Gu Su-gyeong did not give any more detailed explanation and instead looked at the group of Gyeophoe ships swarming in the distance.

I knew there were many fearful beings in the universe, but I never thought there would be so many hiding there that they would fill the universe.

The fearful ships floated like oil on water, out of sync with the universe. They stood out even more when they were gathered together.

“Once Young-Young comes, everything will be resolved. Until then, our role is to hold off the Cowardly Swarm.”

Gu Su-gyeong answered like that and led the soldiers.

* * *

A clash broke out on the second front, and Zuo Songam transformed into a giant by infusing his spirit with the power of the stars. Gu Su Kyung used the Chaos Jade to transform into another universe and used that power to defeat his enemies.

But the number of fearsome ships was overwhelmingly greater, so the front line was inevitably pushed back.

Among the fearful ships, there were powerful men who had dominated the era they belonged to in the past. When they joined the battlefield, the Empire was in an even weaker position.

After holding out for about half a day, Gu Su-gyeong withdrew his soldiers.

And after two weeks, the third front also collapsed. Dancheong, Han-gun, and other troops used all means and methods without hesitation, and Gu Su-gyeong, Jwasong-am, Dong-gun, and Seo-gun joined in, but it was impossible to stall for any longer.

Ten days later, the fourth front collapsed, and ninety days later, the fifth front collapsed.

After a month, the sixth and seventh walls were breached.

The eleven sage kings, including Neunggi and Chang-o, who were in charge of the eighth castle, each raised their own Dharma treasures, and So-gyeop spread out the Taego Jeil Geumjindo to protect the castle. It felt like a pretty plausible momentum.

The eighth general was able to stop the Gyeophoeseon army more easily than expected. After three days of being in a standoff with their equal strength, one Gyeophoeseon of a particularly large size stepped forward from the group and glared at the general.

It was a frightening event.

People expected that there would be several Great Emperors of the Heavenly Realm. And the Great Emperors of the Heavenly Realm that they actually encountered were far beyond their expectations, emitting an aura so strong that it made the hairs on the back of their necks tingle.

The Great Emperor of Gyeop-Hwae was a being who was transformed into a Gyeop-Hwae by strong people who were unable to prevent their own bodies from turning into Gyeop-Hwae.

“There are a total of fifteen strong people who were caught up in the aeon and whose whereabouts are unknown. Is this the appearance of one of them?”

Gu Su-gyeong muttered as she looked at the Great Emperor Gyeop-hoe who was finally stepping forward. Then she took something out of her bosom.

What he took out was a booklet that described the appearances of the fourteen great emperors known to have been involved in the past eons, as discovered from Tongcheon Pavilion. There were supposed to be fifteen, but since the last great emperor, So-un, was still alive, there were fourteen.

Originally, the appearance of the first sages who were caught up in the eon was almost unknown, because most of those who remembered them met the same end as them.

However, as they reached the 7th level, So-woon received the fear that the first sage should have received, so currently, there were a total of four first sages left.

In preparation for any unforeseen circumstances, So-Woon recorded the appearances of the fourteen great emperors whose whereabouts had become unknown. Since he was a Tongcheon-gakju, he left these records in Tongcheon-gak, and he went one step further and carved these records into his own bell.

Those records had already been absorbed into So-un’s supernatural powers and became one.

Since Gu Su-gyeong held a high position in Tongcheon-gak, it was possible for him to obtain those materials.
