Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation
chapter-205

<You have six lives remaining.>

Such a futile death.

The main reason was his carelessness in front of Yorim who was able to use the technique, the special technique.

How can I die a more vain death than this?

How can I die such a vain death after reaching Supreme Demon?

In addition, it felt unfair that he did not even know who ordered that, or what their intentions were.

Regardless of what Seol-Hwi thought, the three options still showed up.

■95th Heavenly Year. Chapter 2-1. Three Lives presented by the Earth Demon. □98th Heavenly Year. Last day of 7th month. □98th Heavenly Year. Self Story_Fateful day.

What was the reason?

After seeing the options, Seol-Hwi had a hard time handling his emotions. Why was Yorim like that? No, was there something happening between the Second and Fourth Disciple that he did not understand?

-Second Disciple… may the glory be enjoyed…

—a voice he heard when dying. Yorim mentioned the Second Disciple. Was this a kill order given to Yorim?

But why would he obey those orders?

He turned around and focused on Yorim. The man who murdered him did not seem like his usual self.

At that time he thought Yorim went through psychological damage, but if he thought about it now, it felt like the guy was being mentally controlled.

Soul-sucking technique… it wouldn’t be weird for Second Disciple to use it.

There were too many things to think about. And the Second Disciple had Fangshi under him, so controlling Yorim could not be that difficult.

But why?

He did not understand.

The Second Disciple did not even know whether or not Seol-Hwi was alive or dead. Above all, the battle for the successor was over. Was he still a threat?

Well—

Seol-Hwi’s choice was this—

<You would like to move to the 98th Heavenly Year, last day of 7th month?>

To find out why Yorim hurt him.

No, in order to change the future of his subordinates, this had to be done.

His vision blurred, and eventually cleared up.

“…”

Seol-Hwi looked around the room for a moment and then sat down on a chair.

A subordinate betraying him, the unexpected death, was the life a dog’s death?

No.

He obtained two things.

He found out how the power struggle was happening between the Heavenly Demon’s disciples. The other was that someone will give an order for him to be killed.

Of course, the Second Disciple is the most powerful, but…

That was something he had to check now because if someone was watching him, that would change everything.

I need to ask Songhwa about this.

Among the things Songhwa knew, there was the Soul-sucking technique. But he refused to learn it. It was because it was a spell close to a curse which would change the mind and character of another person, so he decided to not touch a person like that.

This time, let’s dig deeper into the happenings of the Demonic Sect.

Seol-Hwi took a break, entering into a constant repeating flow.

He did not buy any pills or drinks, and saved Songhwa and rejected the offer of Yupae.

<Moving to self story.>

He received the mission from the Earth Demon.

He informed the subordinates about going to Kangho.

<If you leave the designated area, the combat method will vanish.>

It was the same until he got to moving to Hangzhou.

“Songhwa.”

On the way to Hangzhou, in the carriage Seol-Hwi called Songhwa who answered back in a smile.

“Yes, master.”

“The Soul-sucking technique. When does one usually use it?”

“Soul-sucking technique?”

When asked about it suddenly, he looked shocked. But that was for a while before he said,

“It is mainly used to know if the subject is lying or not. A detection kind?”

Songhwa smiled and said nothing else. However, when Seol-Hwi’s face went still, he added,

“Actually, if I have to explain it, it is too broad. Yet, there is one thing I am certain of, the technique is to control the heart or will of a person. In other words, it is used on those who cannot be trusted.”

“Not trusted…”

Seol-Hwi nodded his head. Certainly it would be difficult for the Second Disciple to trust subordinates of the Earth Demon.

If he wanted power, he would have sided with the First Disciple. Gathering the Earth Demon meant it was not for their skills, but for their character.

“No, well. Did someone use it?”

Just then Imugi asked.

He was listening to it from the side, and unable to hold back his curiosity, he asked.

When the two looked interested, Seol-Hwi spoke. Rather than being alone, he decided the thoughts of both of them would give him a clue.

“Think of this as an assumption and listen…”

From then on, Seol-Hwi spoke.

He spoke of the letters delivered in the past and the information Yorim gave them.

It even went to the power structure between the disciples and the victory of the Second Disciple.

He said this was all an assumption, but the two were really concentrating on it and groaned in the middle. When all the explanations were done—

“And so… now that it is the Second Disciple, I think it is worse.”

Imugi asked,

“Worse?”

“Yes. He is someone who doesn’t trust anyone. He must have judged that among the subordinates of the Fourth Disciple who were entrusted to him, there were those thinking of rebellion. In other words… he was suspicious of even the dead Fourth Disciple.”

“Is there any need though? The Earth Demon is already dead and none of the subordinates who follow him are Supreme Demons either, so why?”

“It isn’t about just the sect. Isn’t the Mount Hua sect also colluding with them?”

“Ah.”

Seol-Hwi hit the head of Imugi.

A subordinate who is loyal to the Fourth Disciple, if they dream of revenge in the state that they are—

It would be best to bring in the Mount Hua Sect to handle them.

“Then the Soul-sucking technique is the best bet.”

At this time, Songhwa continued,

“It can be that or not, but what is certain is that people on the side of the Second Disciple used that technique on Yorim. It doesn’t have to be Mount Hua alone, with that technique being used, they can order for those who are connected to them or those who were potential threats to be killed.”

“Ah…”

At Songhwa’s words, Seol-Hwi seemed to see how it was.

Now, the Second Disciple was not someone who trusts anyone, or was trusted by anyone.

On the other hand, those who followed the Fourth Disciple were very loyal. Of course, it would have been something everyone knew.

So, for the Second Disciple using this was worth it. Not only can he clearly distinguish the enemies but also take down the risk factors.

Yorim was caught among them.

“Then there is no way out.”

When Seol-Hwi sighed. Songhwa and Imugi looked at him.

They were wondering what to say.

“If everyone wants to live…”

Seol-Hwi made a promise to not care.

He could not understand it because it was hard to understand, but actually, even if he explained it, it was definite that it would hold too many holes.

“We have no choice but to change the future.”

When Jong Ri and the party came to visit, Seol-Hwi stood up as if he had been waiting. Thanks to this, Songhwa got the carriage on without saying anything.

“Thank you! How can I repay the favor!”

That was how they easily defeated the guys at the opponent’s level and received 50,000 coins. And the money in the toolbox had increased to 235,000G.

Afterwards they went to rob the Sleeping Dragon Forces and the money increased 250,000G.

A little more than 1,000 coins were distributed to Songhwa and Imugi as this was the money they deserved.

<You have learned the Taiji Cultivation method.>

In the past life, Myung Jong and Myung Jin told something

<You have learned Yin Yang Divine Arts.> <You have learned the Taiji Wisdom Sword.>

After that he focused on martial arts like the past. Perhaps it was because he had the experience of hitting Supreme Demon, it took just a few days to reach Peak Demon.

He brought back the pills and everything else like in the last life. Thanks to it, it took less than a month to hit the Supreme Demon level.

“Master. The news arrived.”

After that time, Songhwa handed him the letters.

Seol-Hwi received the paper and checked the contents.

[Captain. How are you? This is Seo Ryeong. The flow here is…]

[The problem is not just if the Supreme Lord Pavilion within the Pavilions…]

[The more the situation is turning the more the…]

“Songhwa.”

After confirming the contents, he called Songhwa again.

“Yes, Master.”

“Next time the letter comes, send this.”

Seol-Hwi handed him the paper prepared in advance.

Songhwa received it and read it for a while…

“Master. This is…”

[Earth Demon. I am Seol-Hwi, the disciple of Chun Miryeo. You will be surprised since I faked my death. The situation was so urgent and rushed at the time that this was the only way to see things through. Please listen to me. The results will prove why I did this.]

[I heard the news of the sect. Soon, the Fourth disciple will have a meeting with the other disciples about the issue of the First Disciple colluding with Mount Hua. But due to the losses and gains, a proper conclusion will not be drawn.]

[On the other hand, the First Disciple will attack sooner or later. Rather, he will take advantage of Mount Hua to infiltrate and enter the sect, and declare that he will strike the central plains with the elders of the sect. Remember my words, and carefully examine whether or not that happens.]

[The First Disciple will choose Choenghae and Sichuan as the first places to attack along with the Murim Alliance with the Nine Great Sects. And this will divert the attention from the Five Great Families. Due to this, the elders who claim to be neutral will go to the disciples and urge them to make a decision. Some of the elders will swear allegiance to the First Disciple.]

[After that, the First Disciple will attack the Third Disciple. There is no way to know how it happens, but it seems to be a surprise attack.]

[If everything moves as expected, forgive me for disobeying your orders and call me back. It is difficult to come to the sect right away so I hope to see you at Mount Hwangga. Contact me through the former subordinates.]

“Phew…”

Songhwa raised his head.

He seemed quite flustered with what he had seen since they just talked earlier. However, he was rather calm with a worried expression.

“Did you peek into the heavens….”

“Again. You… how…?”

Seol-Hwi felt a bit creeped out at this, as Songhwa’s reaction said that he peeked ahead.

Seol-Hwi’s future is known.

“You know…?”

“Coming to Hangzhou with your subordinates. There were many things Master has done that were rather odd.”

“…Why didn’t you ask, then?”

“There are limitations to what can be seen through stars. The future is not something to be spoken of carelessly. Even if it is me, how can I say that to Master?”

“R-right.”

Upon hearing the answer, Seol-Hwi felt himself go numb.

Come to think of it, Songhwa was a Fangshi. He was a genius at this. Then the law of astrology he has is the best.

“You? Then is it right to contact them?”

When asked, Songhwa looked away.

“Why? Is it wrong?”

Songhwa was silent. And after organizing his thoughts, he said,

“The stars… said something limited.”

“…What do you mean?”

“As far as the stars said, in a way….”

Songhwa looked sad as he said,

“Master will not last more than two years from now.”

Seol-Hwi went speechless at the news of his death.
