Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return - Chapter 480
Episode 480
Nam Joo-ryeon clutched her pounding head.
As time passed, the power of the perennial ice was becoming stronger without hesitation. It had already been ten days since the three arrived at the Jusan Archipelago, and during that time, the chill had become more intense.
It was clear that the hall where Danwoohyeon was trapped was playing a role in suppressing the power of Danwoohyeon and the ice crystal, but it seemed that it could no longer be stopped with that power.
If a little more time passed, it seemed impossible to even get closer.
There was also one more thing to worry about: Jang Sam-tae, who had collapsed.
Although you may have recovered your physical condition to some extent, if you are exposed to such extreme conditions, you will not be able to endure it and will die.
There was no choice but to get out of here as quickly as possible or wait for death.
“Hahaha… wow… our chief lord… are you okay?”
Jang Sam-tae opened his eyes, breathing heavily, and asked.
Although it is said to have recovered to some extent, it cannot be said to be perfect.
Nam Joo-ryeon, who was looking at him, could only feel pity, as even the tone of his words showed a sense of difficulty.
” are you okay.”
“Haa… you’re lying, Mashu… has to get up…”
Jang Sam-tae let out an absurd laugh and tried to force himself to get up. What are you trying to do in a situation where even standing upright is difficult?
Cheon Mukwang frowned and pressed his shoulder hard.
“Lay down. “If you wake up, there’s nothing you can do.”
“Damn it…” Jang Sam-tae, whose body was forced to lie down, glared at Cheon Moo-gwang.
He was frowning as to what he didn’t like so much, but even so, he took a breath and opened his mouth, as if he wasn’t going to give in to his will.
“I have to go… Lee Sam-tae… I promised Lord Jang.”
” promise?”
“Heh… hehe two… If either of us is lost, we’ll take the body back with us. “Of course I knew it would be me…” The only thing on Jang Sam-tae’s mind was his promise to Dan Woo-hyeon.
Even though he couldn’t tell if he was dead or alive, the promise he shared weighed heavily on his heart.
If Dan Woo-hyeon takes him with him, someone will do something. Even if it’s in that kind of condition, I still can’t leave it alone in a place like this.
Jang Sam-tae shed tears.
The soaring emotions made even my voice tremble.
“Uh… our Lord Jang… the place you should be is not this place, but Honam Danga.”
It makes no sense that Dan Woo-hyeon is not there.
Isn’t that where Dan Woo-hyeon should be, and isn’t it a place that was established and has value in existence because of his presence? One by one, people flocked to Danwoohyeon and created the place.
So I just thought that I had to take him.
“That place… was ruined.” Cheon Mukwang clicked his tongue as if he felt sorry.
I don’t want to tell the truth, but I need to know anyway.
The situation was so devastated that it was fortunate that at most one person died, and the whereabouts of the others are still unknown.
Even Cheon Moo-gwang didn’t know if he was dead or alive.
At that time, Jang Sam-tae raised his fist with difficulty and hit Cheon Moo-gwang on the leg.
The hand was so weak that it was indescribable, but the force contained within it surprised even Cheon Moo-gwang.
“Don’t … what’s ruined … Ah … I’m not ruined yet … Jangjang … I’m not ruined.”
“It’s still just the snout.” Cheon Mu-kwang frowned.
Normally, I might have slapped him, but if I did that now, it wouldn’t end well.
So he laughed with a shocked expression.
“You look crazy…”
“Honam Danga… There is no way it will fail. “That’s where our chieftain lives.”
“Yes, my lord, he is here. “I can’t even move.”
“Cheon Moogwang!”
This is not something you would say to a sick person.
However, Cheon Moo-kwang’s voice was harsh, as if he was trying to destroy any hope that Jang Sam-tae had.
I tried to crush it somehow.
Nam Joo-ryeon screamed angrily, but Cheon Moo-gwang just snorted.
“Our Jangju… Honam Danga… so he’s not ruined… hehe.”
Jang Sam-tae said those words and instead laughed at Cheon Moo-gwang. His eyes shined as if he was speaking from the heart, and his faith in Dan Woo-hyeon was revealed.
Even Cheon Mukwang and Nam Joo-ryeon’s faith in Dan Woo-hyeon has now cooled.
The look in the eyes of someone who met Dan Woo-hyeon for the first time and decided to follow him, always following after him.
No matter what he did, he believed in Dan Woo-hyeon, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was almost like a belief. And now, Jang Sam-tae’s eyes looked like that, so the two could not talk anymore.
“Get some sleep.”
Cheon Moo-gwang pointed out Jang Sam-tae’s blood transfusion as if he didn’t like it. He, who was maintaining his consciousness even if vaguely, closed his eyes and made a quiet sound, and Cheon Moo-gwang turned his head with an expression of unwillingness.
“Good job. “This is not the time to waste your energy.”
At that time, the door opened with a squeak and Yubaek came inside.
The moment he opened the door, the chill I felt instantly penetrated my entire body and made me feel like it would freeze me at any moment.
It’s not very good.
Yubaek’s expression was also the same.
“So did you see it?” Cheon Mukwang’s gaze turned towards Yubaek.
Yubaek, who went out to check on the situation, nodded with his mouth shut with a displeased expression on his face. He slowly approached and took a seat in front of the bonfire and let out a small sigh, saying, ‘Whew.’
“If we continue like this, we will all freeze to death.”
The power of the perennial ice crystal was stronger than expected.
All it took was to briefly open the door to the palace, and its power was now growing so strong that it would not be an exaggeration to say that it could devour everything.
The intention is to completely imprison Dan Woo-hyeon forever.
Perhaps even if a long time passes, Dan Woo-hyeon will be trapped in this land forever and will not be able to escape unless the ice crystal is removed.
“So? Way?”
Nam Joo-ryeon looked out the window and asked.
It’s Yubaek, not anyone else.
Among those called the Eight Immortals, he is the one who has been by Emperor Chen Wu’s side for the longest time and is skilled in strange techniques, so he will find a way out of any situation.
That’s what I believed.
Did you feel that kind of faith?
Yubaek smiled sheepishly.
“Isn’t that too much of a burden?”
“I’m asking because I think you’ll find a way.”
“If you say it exists, it exists, and if you say it doesn’t exist, it doesn’t exist….”
Yubaek smiled bitterly.
Then he looked at the ceiling for a moment and sighed again, saying ‘Haa’. Unable to understand the meaning of the sigh, Cheon Moo-gwang and Nam Joo-ryeon looked at Yu Baek with strange expressions.
“The best way is for Musin to break the ice crystal himself and come out. Of course it would be best, but it is impossible. “If I had the ability to do that in the first place, I wouldn’t have been trapped.”
Nam Joo-ryeon nodded.
It’s obvious.
However, no matter how shamanistic you are, there are some things that are impossible. The 10,000-year ice cap is a new thing that even the power of good men cannot do anything about.
Even if you are a martial god whose power reaches the sky, there are things that are beyond your power.
“Ice crystals are inside the chunk of ice surrounding Musin. I was thinking something like that too. “If it were outside, I would have at least tried to destroy it.”
“The introduction is done, just the main body…”
Nam Joo-ryeon’s gaze turned sharp.
I felt strange in Yubaek’s behavior as he dragged on a pointless story.
I know that the words that come out of his mouth are never good. But even so, I wanted to have some hope, so I urged, encouraged, and listened.
Yubaek scratched his head.
The pouring gaze of the two people was very burdensome.
“Another thing… is to infuse power. To make the power of the martial spirit trapped inside even greater. If you can do that, maybe you can come out. But if that happens…”
“We’ll all die.”
Cheon Mukwang smiled bitterly. Infusing good energy means pouring out all the things that make up the body. This was not a situation that could be said to be good, as it was equivalent to eliminating their very existence.
but.
“What are the odds?”
Cheon Mukwang asked without hesitation.
“It’s half and half.”
The probability of 50% is the same as the possibility that Martial God will not wake up even if everything is poured into it, but Yubaek’s judgment was certain that there was no other possibility.
“What if we combine the other eight lines?”
“The odds will certainly increase, but it is impossible. Because they won’t listen to you. “What’s so good about sacrificing your life to save that guy?”
Nam Joo-ryeon swallowed a moan.
That is correct.
There are only a few of those who remain. If we work with them, our chances will increase, but since there are even people who are hostile towards Musin, it is close to impossible.
Therefore, it is a job that must be done by three people.
“How long can we last inside?”
“This is Il Da-kyung.”
“…At best?”
“okay.”
The power of perennial ice crystals is becoming stronger as time passes, so it is difficult to say anything about it. Just being able to withstand Il Da-kyung is incredible.
If it had been anyone else in the first place, they would have turned into a block of ice the moment they walked in
.
The three people looked in different directions and said nothing.
Nam Joo-ryeon looking out the window.
Yubaek was just staring at the bonfire, and Cheon Moo-gwang quietly closed his eyes and seemed to be immersed in meditation.
There was silence.
For a while, no one spoke and I was left alone in the silence.
Eventually, the first to break the silence was none other than Cheon Mukwang.
“It wasn’t possible before…”
“That’s right.”
At first, he did everything to free the martial god who was imprisoned by Emperor Tianwu. However, the thing that was impossible to solve in the first place was none other than Taegongjin.
Since he was the Emperor of Heaven, there was no way he would allow him to break the seal.
Also, its strength was weak.
Their power was never reached.
“But not now. “I think
that the reason I have survived until now is because of this day .”
Cheon Mukwang has already made up his mind.
This is a life that should have been killed by Emperor Chunmu anyway. It was given new life again with Ryu Hwa-gun’s Danhwan, so it was not a waste to use it for Dan Woo-hyeon.
And it was the same for Nam Joo-ryeon.
She nodded and made up her mind.
“Same.”
He nodded as if he already knew what kind of answer Cheon Mukwang would give, or as if he was confirming once again that his feelings were the same.
She sighed, ‘Whoa,’ and somehow looked relieved.
“how about you? In fact, out of all the other Eight Immortals, isn’t he the most hostile towards the God of War?”
“Well… I guess so.”
Yubaek scratched his head and laughed.
Thinking back on the past, it was worth it. But the past was the past and now is the present. Long enough for even the desire for revenge to disappear.
Also, Yu Baek shrugged his shoulders and opened his mouth because he thought that if there was anyone who could stop Emperor Wu of Heaven, it was only Dan Woo-hyeon.
“But that doesn’t mean the oldest can run away.”
Yubaek chuckled and stood up from his seat.
