Episode 1087. It’s Safe to Go to the 8th Line

Meanwhile, the wounds that the resident suffered were serious. He was barely able to breathe. So-woon looked at the resident carefully and then sighed and said.

“The wound is much deeper than I thought. If it weren’t for the seal of the King of Reincarnation, I could have treated it somehow, but as of now… … there’s nothing I can do.”

The wounds remaining on So-woon’s body had not yet fully healed. They were wounds left by the reincarnation king with the help of Je-hol, and So-woon, whose body, magical powers, and even the spirit world were sealed, was unable to heal them on his own.

Of course, even if the power had not been sealed, it would not have been easy to treat these paths. The reason I thought so was because these paths were created by the Great Way of Reincarnation.

Even if the wound is treated, the power of the Great Way of Reincarnation is automatically activated and you return to the moment you were injured.

The wounds on Yoo Jo-saeng’s body were the same as So-un’s. The wounds that the reincarnation king himself left behind were not the kind that So-un could heal.

The old man opened his mouth as if he was about to say something. However, So-woon ignored him and walked towards Hyun-cheol Jong. There was a faint smile on his face as he looked at Jong.

“My great path of reincarnation does not even reach the tip of the feet of the King of Reincarnation. Since there was no information beyond the seal on my body, it was impossible for me to cultivate further. However, these diagrams that the King of Reincarnation has carved on the paper with my own hands, I believe that I will be able to achieve even deeper enlightenment.”

As he muttered, So-Woon scanned the marks of the reincarnation king’s fist that remained on the paper. It was as if he was fascinated by it.

“The Way of Reincarnation is truly a fascinating Way. If you learn more about it, your perspective on the world will surely change.”

Yoo Jo-saeng waved his hand to let So-woon know his presence. Then So-woon suddenly came to his senses and looked back at Yoo Jo-saeng.

“Ah, don’t move. If my original shadow contained in the bell ascends to the true Do-gyeong Chiljungcheon through the Seoncheon Diary, I will be freed from the seal of the King of Reincarnation. Then, I will be able to heal Do-woo’s wounds. To pass up such an opportunity, the King of Reincarnation is truly a good person.”

So-woon looked at Hyun-cheol Jong again and let out an exclamation of admiration.

“I almost broke the bell entirely, you see. The current reincarnation king didn’t have that much power. All he could do was erase the engravings on the bell. That can be easily fixed. Rather, his attack helped us realize the bell’s shortcomings, so it was a blessing in disguise… .”

So-woon, whose voice trailed off like that, looked at Yoo Jo-saeng, whose face was red as if he was still trying to say something.

“So, thanks to the newly engraved eighteen Great Seals of Reincarnation on the bell, I have a chance to escape the seal of the King of Reincarnation. I would have been able to do it without it, but it has come much sooner than I expected. The results have been much better than I expected. I will never forget what Dou has done for me. Don’t worry about Dou’s wife and children. I will take good care of them.”

The nurse’s eyes widened. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out. Instead, blackened blood spurted out and stained the area around his mouth.

So-woon wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth for him and smiled kindly.

“It’s between me and Do-woo. It’s only natural for me to protect your wife and children in your stead. So don’t worry too much. Oh, if Do-woo is still alive when you master the Great Way of Reincarnation and escape the seal of the King of Reincarnation, he will be the first to heal your body, so you don’t have to worry about him either.”

So-woon continued the story as if the old man was already dead.

At that moment, Guyamo, who was returning to the factory to bring out the blast furnace, tilted his head when he saw So-woon and Yoo Jo-saeng fighting.

“Your Majesty, I think what You Daoshiin is saying is that it would be sufficient if you simply returned his half-folded body to its original state.”

The young man looked at Gu Yamo with tears in his eyes and nodded vigorously.

So-woon groaned, “Ahh,” as if she had finally realized it, and straightened her back, which was bent in the direction of the yujosaeng.

Yoo Jo-saeng, who was finally able to breathe properly, glared at So-woon while spitting out the remaining blood in his throat.

So-woon said with exaggerated actions, as if admitting his mistake.

“Do-woo’s waist is due to reincarnation, so it is possible to straighten it, but the remaining marks on his body cannot be fixed as I just mentioned. When the Dogyeong of Hyeoncheol’s clan ascends to the Seven Heavens, I will fix it then. Oh, over there!”

So-woon pointed to the messenger sent by Hyang-gun.

“Please take your lord back. It is time to rest now.”

The consul came to the naked Yujosaeng and supported him.

So-woon approached Yoo Jo-saeng, staggering slightly as if it was uncomfortable to move her body.

“I will send it to you as a letter of appointment.”

As he said that, a curtain of light appeared around Hyuncheol Jong and lifted Yoo Jo-saeng and Yeong-sa up. Yoo Jo-saeng barely managed to turn his head to look at So-woon.

“Your Majesty, your body doesn’t seem to be in good shape. Do you think you can defeat Jehol with that kind of attitude?”

So-woon smiled.

“I’m already used to the terrain. I can easily deal with someone as powerful as Je-hol without using all my might, so don’t worry.”

The young man spoke as he lay down on the tent, as if he found it difficult to even turn his head.

“I know how much pain you are in. That is why I am worried.”

To Yoo Jo-saeng’s words, So-woon did not respond at all and just silently moved the Hyeon-cheol bell. Then Yoo Jo-saeng opened his mouth again.

“I have done everything you asked me to do. The rest is up to you. You have twelve years left. Can you handle it?”

So-woon nodded, ignoring her pounding heart. Then, she followed the paper of Hyun-cheol disappearing into the distance.

So-woon let out a sigh without realizing it.

“The treasure refined by the original spirit is really good. Even though the realm is sealed, you can still use the treasure so freely. If it were a holy spirit, you wouldn’t have been able to do this.”

Guyamo overheard Soun’s monologue and frowned.

‘Your Majesty has firmly entered the Sima Wei Dao. You say it is good to have the spirit of the enemy dwell in Jibo. If that is not a mixed army, then what is it? Well, as long as it does not cause damage to Tongcheon Pavilion, then it does not matter.’

Then, when Guya Moga tried to touch Hyeoncheol Jong, Sowoon stopped him.

“There’s no need to fix it. I have to go out to the front line like this. It’s fine, as it is now.”

However, Guyamo frowned as he looked at the distorted bells here and there. The Hyeoncheol bell looked like a fruit that had fallen from a tree and rolled on the ground, rotten and bursting here and there.

Looking at the expressions of the bell and Guya Mo, So-woon took a step back as if he realized something.

“I’ll go back to the palace and tidy up the clothes, so do your best to repair them in the meantime.”

Guyamo breathed a sigh of relief and lit a fire in the furnace.

So-woon returned to the harem and, with the help of the maids, tidied up her clothes. She put on the imperial attire that she had worn when she first ascended to the throne of heaven and had thrown away, and she even put on a royal crown on her head, and she looked quite handsome.

Acheong-la was not in the concubine’s house. Our lord’s mother had gone to the battlefield herself and was organizing the situation there.

So-woon spent as much time as possible chatting with the court ladies and then leisurely headed to the factory. His efforts paid off, as Gu-ya-mo succeeded in smoothing out most of the sunken areas of Hyeon-cheol’s bell.

But in their eyes, it seemed that many things were still lacking. When So-un tried to go to the battlefield with the bell, Kuyamo grabbed his ankle.

“You said you were going to the battlefield? Leave the bell behind!”

So-woon shook off Guyamo and climbed onto Hyeoncheol’s bell and went out into the sky. Guyamo chased after So-woon with all his might, but it was impossible for him to catch up with So-woon.

So-Woon’s body had not yet fully recovered. Therefore, it was impossible for him to go to the battlefield without Hyeon-Cheol Jong, and he could not survive on the battlefield without the Jong’s help.

* * *

Jongsandongcheon was not that far from Jejeong. If the Gyeophoeseon group broke down the defensive line called Jongsandongcheon and entered it, Jejeong would instantly become a sea of ??fire.

Angel Anjagi was blocking the Gyeophoeseon army in front of Jongsandongcheon to keep the oath she had made. Sima Jeso and even Seonhu came out to surround Jongsan and did their best to prevent the Gyeophoeseon army from crossing the mountain.

The strange thing was that Jehol had disappeared except for the first sortie. Baek Lidok, Do Yeok Gi, Je Suk Jin Shin, etc. often showed their faces on the battlefield, and each time, Seon Hoo and Je So had to retreat after losing the battle, but there was no sign of them completely pushing them out and trying to cross Jong San.

When So-woon arrived at Jongsandongcheon, the Gyeophoeseon group was attacking Gujin. The stars from the heavens fell towards Gujindongcheon, led by the spirits of the Wondo Yeongsang.

And in the sky of Gujindongcheon, the flock of terrifying stars that filled the place were throwing their bodies towards the stars flying towards them.

Each of those stars was a small world. The soldiers of Gujindongcheon treated those small worlds like stars or weapons, and built them up in layers to create a defensive wall.

Ships would travel between these small worlds, saving the people in them. Sometimes, these ships would be directly attacked by the fear ships. In such cases, the ships would explode, sending sparks flying everywhere.

So-Woon, who was watching the situation, looked shocked as she saw the exploding ship.

“Hey angel, what on earth is going on in Gujindongcheon?”

So-woon entered Anjagi’s camp with urgent steps and asked a question.

“Gujindongcheon can no longer hold out. Your Majesty has made that decision and is moving the people to the small world. And preparations to move them and the small world as a whole to the 8th heavenly realm are complete.”

Sowoon frowned.

“The 8th line? Not the Empire?”

“It is safe for the people to go to the 8th realm.”

So-woon opened her mouth to ask the reason for Anjagi’s firm answer. At that moment, Je-so approached them.

“An Angel’s words are right. It would be better for the people to go to the 8th realm. The Sunhu judged it that way and I also agreed with him. The Empire may be safe, but the 7th realm is not.”

So-woon looked at Je-so with a hardened face.

“Why do you say that?”

Jeso looked at Anjagi with hesitation.

“I think it would be better for Your Majesty to speak.”

Only then did Jeso sigh and begin to explain.

“In Jejeong, the small Jesuk and Cheonhu are leading a large army to block the enemies from outside. And An Jagi is mobilizing a large army from the 6th lineage to block the enemies further out, at Jongsandongcheon. Then, what about the other Dongcheons besides Jejeong? Have you ever paid attention to those places?”

So-woon looked at Je-so, feeling dizzy.

“What is that?”

“It’s not like the Empire protects all the Dongcheon. However, even among the Dongcheon outside of the Empire, there are places where civilization and energy exist. And the strong people of the Eight Heavens of the Dogyeong reside there. But as you know, they can’t stop the Gyeophoeseon hordes.”

Jeso sighed as he said that.

“The fearful ships are the ones that can’t even stop the front line. The situation of the other Dongcheons goes without saying. Some of the fearful ships that crossed the defense line in the past year survived and scattered to various parts of the heavenly realm, and at least five Dongcheons collapsed under their attacks. Everyone who lived above them disappeared without a trace.”

The corners of So-woon’s mouth trembled.

“Then, even if it means mobilizing the power of the Empire… … .”

Anjagi said.

“Your Majesty, the Empire has no more troops to call up. And the soldiers on the battlefield will be… … after the next few battles.”
