Episode 1131. The vibration of the Tao

At Yoo Jo-saeng’s suggestion, So-woon used his magical power. The great path of reincarnation unfolded, and the past and future of the seventh heavenly realm became one, creating the reincarnation ring.

Within that cycle of reincarnation, time flowed like a great river. Each drop of water and each wave that made up that river represented major events that occurred within the cycle of reincarnation that was divided into tens of thousands of branches.

And that river led to chaos. Due to the influence of two outsiders, So-un and Yoo-jo-saeng, and the distant future event of the merger of the Seondo Universe and the Dogye Universe, the future of the Seondo Universe was unclear.

So-Woon got rid of the reincarnation ring and returned to reality.

“I must practice closed-door training. If things continue like this, no one will be able to ascend to the Ten Heavenly Heavens of the Do-Gyeong for the time being. So I will continue my chaos-like life.”

The nurse frowned.

“You will continue the life of Jehondon? With your power? Anyway, when Jehondon reaches his limit, the 7th and 8th immortal realms will collapse before that, and the celestial realms will turn into a cowardly horde and scatter. What is the point of continuing the life of Jehondon in such a situation?”

So-woon said calmly.

“But we should at least try.”

The nurse shrugged her shoulders and gave him a look that said, “Do whatever you want.”

So-Woon immediately used the Great Sword of Reincarnation. With its power, he pushed himself into reincarnation.

In the cycle of reincarnation, time was just a number. He took everything from the reincarnation king and took control of the reincarnation great way. Using that power, he could experience endless time in a short period of time in reality.

While it may seem like a fleeting moment to most people, the time in reincarnation that So-un can experience can amount to tens of thousands of years.

In the reincarnation, So-woon looked back at Hong-mong. He was trying to find out everything about Hong-mong by squeezing out all his wisdom.

Over the years, he has found ways to make Hongmong even more perfect. And at the same time, he has found ways to break through.

The journey to find the truth of the Great Way, the true One, the true Hongmong continued for a long time. How much time had passed? Millions of years? Tens of millions of years? Maybe even hundreds of millions.

So-woon began to change slowly through reincarnation. Having gained new life through his previous life, he was able to glimpse more diverse possibilities.

As those days repeated, So-woon’s city center, body, and soul slowly aged.

To others, it was only a few years, but to him, it felt like an infinite amount of time. He gradually forgot the faces of his friends who had been with him. No matter how hard he racked his brain, he couldn’t remember what they looked like or what their voices were like.

Even while experiencing such forgetfulness, So-woon stubbornly searched for the answer. However, the words of the King of Reincarnation were right. There was no meaning in practicing closed-door meditation in reincarnation. There was no coincidence there, and since there was no coincidence, there was no breakthrough.

Although it was possible to glimpse infinite possibilities, it did not help to perfect the Hongmong sector. There were still loopholes in the Hongmong sector, and So-woon was unable to reach the Nine Heavens of Do-gyeong and was just standing still.

As So-woon’s closed-door training continued longer than expected, Yeong-yeong was struggling with boredom. He would go to see Yoo Jo-saeng and chat, and sometimes he would surprise those who visited So-woon’s grave, but it was no fun because he wasn’t with So-woon.

And then, before they knew it, the day of the next chaos came. Young-young and Yoo Jo-saeng looked for So-woon. The light of reincarnation disappeared as if it had been waiting for them to come. So-woon had also been calculating the date.

“I never thought I’d be practicing closed-door training for nearly ten thousand years. I bet you’ve acquired something incredible.”

As he said this, Yoo Jo-saeng approached So-woon.

The light completely disappeared, and where So-woon had been, an old man with white hair was sitting. Yeong-yeong approached the old man and examined him carefully.

Then the old man raised his head and met Yeong-yeong’s gaze. The old man smiled brightly at Yeong-yeong’s appearance, whom he was meeting again after six hundred billion years.

“Forever, is that right?”

Yeong-yeong burst into tears.

“So-woon! Why did you get so old?”

“There was no one to guide me.”

So-woon said with sad eyes.

“Jehondon gave me proper advice so that I could ascend to the Seven Heavens of the Dokyung, and then to the Eight Heavens. However, after I ascended to the Nine Heavens, Jehondon’s advice became useless. So I tried to find a way to break through with my own strength. However… … It seems that it was impossible from the beginning. As I struggled to find something that could not be found, I ended up forgetting what I used to be like.”

The nurse frowned.

“Chaos is about to strike. But with Sodou in this state… … .”

Yeong-yeong said, wiping away tears.

“Yu Jo-saeng, go and bring O-dong.”

The nurse smiled mischievously.

“What, are you trying to say that if Sodou meets the person he loves, he will return to his past self?”

Yeong-yeong shook her head.

“Sowoon likes women, and pretty women at that. When he sees Odong, he might be able to recall his younger days. Then he will naturally return to his original form.”

At Young-young’s unexpected answer, Yoo Jo-saeng shook his head and left to find O-dong.

After a while, Odong came to see Sowoon. The red cloth covering her face was removed, and her beautiful face, which could not be praised as peerless beauty, came into Sowoon’s sight.

So-woon stared blankly at O-dong. The next moment, memories from his childhood came flooding back, and So-woon succeeded in recalling his past self.

His appearance, his original form, returned to his youth.

“Am I right?”

Yeong-yeong whispered in Yoo Jo-saeng’s ear.

“They say that So-woon becomes healthy both physically and mentally when he sees a beautiful woman?”

The nurse responded with a disgruntled expression.

“Just say that it was recovered through the power of love.”

So-Woon, who had regained his memories of his childhood, looked back on the past six trillion years with his young mind. Unlike when he was old, his mind, which was spinning tightly, realized a secret he had not noticed before.

He could tell what ‘the only’ meant.

He looked at Odong again. Looking at her fluttering red clothes, So-woon thought of his infinite self in the past six trillion years of reincarnation.

He has been pursuing the Tao for years. He has walked a path with no end in sight, with a heart that is literally spitting out blood.

It wasn’t as simple as just putting in the time to awaken it.

It was higher than the mountains, deeper than the sea, and vaster than the earth.

While examining So-woon’s condition, O-dong and Yoo-jo-saeng suddenly felt the illusion that their Tao was reflected on So-woon’s body. It was as if they were looking at a mirror.

They couldn’t guess at what level So-un had reached now.

The current state of So-un cannot be defined by the word ‘Do-gyeong’.

The moment they realized it, the heavens and the earth began to shake. It wasn’t an ordinary vibration. It was… … a vibration of the Tao.

The great swords of Odong and Yoojo were resonating with the vibration.

I looked around in surprise, but I couldn’t find anything unusual other than the vibration.

Not only them, but all the consuls of the Empire, especially the beings of Jegyeong, felt the strange vibrations because the great path within their bodies was resonating with the vibrations.

“What is going on?”

People shouted like that.

“Someone is trying to become a Taoist god.”

The nurse suddenly shouted like this.

“He is trying to imprint his way into heaven and earth!”

Yeong-yeong looked at Yoo Jo-saeng with a blank expression.

“So, who is doing that?”

Even when Yujo Saeng became a Taoist, this level of vibration did not occur. The strangely strong vibration spread not only to the realm of the 7th immortal realm, but also to every corner of the realm, resonating with the great Taoists.

Even the people of the 8th level were able to vaguely sense the waves of the great sword.

So-Woon once again wove the seventh heavenly realm’s reincarnation into a ring shape and looked over it.

Je-suk, Gu-su-gyeong, and Si-cho-hee were staying in the same place as before. So-geop and Woo-cheong-gwang were not there either. Of course, O-dong, who was next to him now, was not the main character who was causing the strange incident.

So-woon turned his gaze to the 8th realm. However, Ae-cheon-ra, who had entered the Holy Country, was only in the process of breaking through, and was not making any significant progress.

There was no change to be found in the adults, the Seonghwang of Heonwon, the Seonghwang of Seongwu, or the other three adults. No, rather, they were far away from the Ten Heavenly Kings of Do-gyeong.

Odong frowned as he watched Sowoon use the Great Sword of Reincarnation to inspect the entire 7th Immortal Realm, and even the 8th Immortal Realm’s reincarnation.

‘You said you were seriously injured in the fight with the King of Reincarnation? That? How can someone be so seriously injured?’

Odong muttered to himself like that.

‘Besides, there’s no way that the King of Reincarnation could do anything with that power, with that level of existence. Unless the situation were reversed.’

The suspicion grew deeper and deeper.

‘Could it be that you killed the reincarnation king and took the reincarnation great sword from him? If so, then who is the reincarnation king who is threatening the world right now? Who is the reincarnation king who chased me all the way to Gwanghansan?’

Odong’s face darkened.

‘If he wasn’t hurt, why did he come to me so obediently when I attacked him? Where on earth did he start deceiving me?’

At that moment, Young-young shouted as if he had remembered something.

“Are you talking about the person who became a Taoist god? Isn’t that Wichasan?”

Odong put aside his suspicions about Sowoon for a moment and recalled the information about Wichasan that Yeongyeong had mentioned.

‘The disciple of Jejeol who was resurrected by the reincarnation sage king. Wichasan let go of his grudge and disappeared along with Jeso’s death. If it was him, maybe he would have really ascended to the Ten Heavens of the Taoist Realm. Damn, who is that reincarnation sage king who resurrected Jejeol’s disciple? Is he the real sage king, or is he also Sowoon?’

So-woon, not even dreaming that O-dong was suspicious of him, used the power of reincarnation to find Mount Wicha.

Wichasan had gone into the mountains and was living a leisurely life with trees and rivers as his friends. It seemed like it had been a long time since he had left his practice. He showed no fighting spirit or determination. Rather, he seemed to have regressed even further than before.

Yeong-yeong stamped her feet as if she didn’t understand.

“If not Wichasan? Could it be Junggeumneung? Junggeumneung had already set foot in the Taoist realm halfway through his fight with Okyeonso. Then, wouldn’t he be able to become a Taoist? Besides, he’s been practicing in a closed space for the past few years and hasn’t moved at all, so maybe… … .”

In the battle that took place at the tomb of Mingdu, Zhong Jinling fought with Yu Yansuo. Aside from him, there was no one who could stand up to Yu Yansuo. If he hadn’t been there, how many great emperors would have lost their lives…

So-woon used the power of reincarnation again to find Jung-geum-neung. Jung-geum-neung was completely destroyed, and he was spending time with the people in the Second Heavenly Realm, which was left in ruins. Unlike the previous Wichasan, he was trying to break through to a higher realm, but it seemed difficult to create a Taoist realm.

He too was looking up at the sky, surprised by the strange events taking place in the 7th realm.

“If it wasn’t Mt. Wichasan or Mt. Junggeumneung, then who on earth had the qualities of a Taoist god?”

Young-young was pacing around in circles, very excited.

The nurse burst into laughter and said:

“Actually, it doesn’t matter who it is. Since the Taoist has appeared, chaos will be restored and we no longer need to pretend to die. If you really want to know the truth, all you have to do is retrace the waves that spread across the Great Way of Heaven and Earth.”

“Yes,” So-un answered.

“Let’s go and see. I wonder who on earth became the Taoist god.”

Among them, Yoo Jo-saeng was the most skilled, so he easily found the source of the vibration. So-woon used spatial reincarnation to find the newly born Taoist god.

At that moment, Odong suddenly grabbed him and stopped him.

“Didn’t you say you were seriously injured?”
