Subdued Soul Chronicle

Chapter 215: Mita (17)

The Hwarangs, such as Jin Rim, the leaders, Song Ok, and those outside, were all shocked.

Why was this woman here?

It was strange that she chose to be here when the banquet was happening, and even more strange that she helped.

Was she really here to help?

While everyone looked at each other in doubt, she calmly walked and stood outside the barrier. Then, they looked at the pillars installed.

This method isnt wrong. But there is something you didnt consider. Because of one thing, the situation now is different from 100 years ago when the experiment was done.

And that is?

When Jin Rim asked, she pointed to herself.

The fact that 50 years ago, a genius in divine reading joined the Moon Palace. The genius went through training to be the head and has been in charge of stabilizing the heavens. And doing such a thing without my permission is bound to be difficult. Which is why I came to grant the permission of the sky, even if a bit late.

But why

Instead of answering, she turned to Zaha, and her eyes looked complicated. Seol Young could guess why.

She knows it.

She had also found out what the High Governor did eight years ago, maybe through Zauns words and actions.

.

Zaha looked at her.

In the wind mixed with snow powder, the two looked at each other. And it was the same when they first met after 8 years in the palace.

But for Seol Young, his feelings right now are different. It wasnt hostile anymore.

.

The Pavilion Head looked at them.

Her eyes scanned around and stopped at Seol Young. She glanced at the arrow in his hand and then turned her head.

Crowns of heaven stood around the pillars. Even the youngest ones were waiting for her command without a hint of fear.

. Right, fine.

And she turned to Zaha again.

Then, we will stabilize the heavens, and you continue your thing.

I understand.

Zaha said,

When the sky felt stable, the light from the stone pagoda changed. Instead of being a line, it turned into a plane of light and spread.

Mutations began to occur before everyones eyes.

A transparent space appeared in the air, and waves were moving from the rocks. It was like there was a rippling effect in the air.

A brilliant and ominous light emerged from beyond. It came through the shimmering surface, casting strange colors on the ground.

It was a landscape that wasnt of this world. A wave of death seemed to spread around.

The Ghost Bridge?

While everyone looked at it as if they were possessed, a white shadow came and stood ahead.

Then, lets continue with the summoning, which was interrupted.

Then Seol Young summoned spiritual qi in one hand. Unlike the White Tigers spiritual qi, it was silver and blue.

Guys, watch the surroundings.

Yes.

At Zahas words, Baek Eon, Seo Geom, Mu Won, and Hwa Un each raised their spiritual swords high and defended themselves.

In the midst of it, Seol Young drew a huge summoning spell on the ground. As soon as he began to make shapes, his mind wandered, and soon, his thoughts vanished. It had been like that since he was young.

On the top of the mountain, a white snow wind continued to blow. And the white robes fluttered with silvery blue qi.

Everyone held their breath, even though Seol Youngs white clothes were supposed to be a sign of humiliation.

However, since Seol Young solved a lot of the supernatural calamities, it has now turned into a symbol of honor.

Just do what you always do.

Seol Young completed the summoning and calmly moved his hand without any mistakes. Finally, he put his Blue Rainbow sword in the middle.

And then he turned to Zaha.

Please lend me your strength, too.

Zaha came across the snow and inserted the Dead Slayer sword there. Golden qi rose in the shape of a talisman and shone in a bright blue light. Then, powerful energy arose terrifyingly, like a tidal wave, at every spot.

The entire mountain lit up as if it were in flames.

The Governor, the Pavilion Head, and the hwarangs were all seeing this for the first time.

And they finally saw it.

Because he used such a powerful summoning technique Seol Young was able to summon Mita.

Although they werent familiar with sorcery, they could feel how strong it was.

Call it.

Zaha ordered. And as if obeying his order, the light shone in the talisman. And Seol Young held the arrow in his hand.

Then, the energy of the summoning spell was sucked into the bone fragments tied to the arrow. At that moment, the bone turned into a medium to call the soul. The power of the summoning spell was connected.

Come.

Seol Young sent a powerful thought to it. And in the dazzling light, his consciousness felt out of place.

In the deep, pitch darkness.

The God of Cataclysm could be clearly seen.

Where the new cataclysm would happen and where it would happen in the future. Along the cracks of the world, the darkness spread everywhere, trying to be one with this world.

Come out.

Seol Young ordered again.

Lets end it now.

The darkness turned into flames. It went close to him as if it wanted to burn his eyes. And at the same time, he felt like his body was being subdued.

Seol Young opened his eyes.

He felt the sensation in his hand

Ba-dump.

The bone fragments tied to the arrow in his hand were pulsating.

She had arrived.

Before Seol Young could even say that, everyone had already felt it. The night sky lit up like it was on fire. Soon, darkness came over like a flood.

Its the God of Cataclysm!

Baek Eon, Seo Geom, Mu Won, and Hwa Un raised their spiritual qi, ready. And their spiritual qi surrounded the summoning area and rose like a pillar, creating a defensive wall.

Zaha took out his necklace and looked at Seol Young.

Can you do it?

Seol Young nodded instead of answering.

The space began to change at the tip of the arrow. The snowy wind stopped, and then it raged like a gale.

And it appeared, making everyone shudder.

It was an invisible existence, but everyone could feel it this time. Jin Rim, the leaders, and everyone saw it.

The one that reappeared after eight years. A being born from bloodshed. A being called as God, its true name unknown.

It was part of the bone fragments. And it felt like the hands holding the bone would be crushed.

But all of this is an illusion.

Seol Young wasnt fooled.

The weight of this existence wasnt received by his body but accepted by his heart. Keeping that fact in mind, he tried to drive away the darkness that covered his heart. And he concentrated all his spiritual qi into his two hands.

Ghosts cannot beat people.

The voice he mumbled sounded so far away. The arrow, which felt as heavy as a mountain, finally moved.

Did it.

Seol Young aimed the arrow at the Ghost Bridge. But the Ghost Bridge couldnt be seen. It was cracking the space, which covered his vision.

Then Zaha shouted at Jin Rim,

Can you open it a little more?

Yes!

Jin Rim quickly checked the records he had memorized and infused spiritual qi into the pagoda.

The wave, which was spreading from the pagoda, turned stronger, and the Ghost Bridge opened up a little more.

A dazzling light shone, and Seol Young, unable to stand it, closed his eyes.

Right. You can do that.

Zahas voice could be heard clearly through the hum.

Lets believe in that now.

Seol Young took a deep breath. If he hesitates, he will fail. He couldnt do that now. As soon as he thought so, all the confusion vanished.

It felt like he found peace, and in that state, he let go of the string.

There was a sharp sound.

The cold wind hit his cheek again. Seol Young opened his eyes. He could see the back of the arrow flying through the snow, and it went straight through the Ghost Bridge.

At that moment, a powerful collision occurred.

As if an avalanche had occurred, the heavens and land shook, and waves of energy burst out from the Ghost Bridge.

A huge flame was created around the arrow. The image of the God of Cataclysm was clear.

Everyone, back off now!

Zaha threw the necklace of the Tree God.

Against the dazzling light from the pagoda, the half necklace was clear. Zaha looked at it for a while.

Following that, his sword drew an arc. The sharp blade split its wooden body at once. A loud shout shook the mountain.

The light shone brighter, and a huge face was shining in gold. The ancient God had been brought into the land again.

Tree God?

The Pavilion Head seemed shocked. However, the sound was drained by the noise.

Great Mother was shouting with all her might. At the command of the divine being who had been protecting the land for ages, the image of the God of Cataclysm began to get pushed away.

Eventually, the barrier was breached. The God of Cataclysm began to sink into the space slowly.

The plan wasnt going wrong.

The bridge was opened, clearly taking in the God of Cataclysm.

But

Darkness rose.

It was unfair that not everything was perfect, but it wasnt easy to do things.

I need to hurry.

Seol Young raised his spiritual qi and gave strength to the Great Mother.

Dae-rang! Seo Geom-rang!

I get it!

Baek Eon, Seo Geom, Mu Won, and Hae Wun all helped.

Their spiritual qi and the tree spirits didnt mingle. But it was better than doing nothing.

Go back to where you came from!

Everyone poured their energy at Seol Youngs command. The rest of the spiritual qi was raised to the limit, and Mitas image was clearly pushed more than half way. Then it started accelerating gradually.

But then.

Seol Young caught something at the corner of his vision. In the fast changing situation happening on the ground, certain shapes began to appear one by one.

They seemed to be people. People were standing on the twilight zone where everything was gone.

What is that?

Zahas face changed.

Could they be beings from the other side?

No. It hasnt been that long since we opened it. Nothing can cross over.

Jin Rim answered back.

Then they suddenly disappeared.

?

Seol Young looked around, not able to understand what had happened.

It was as if all of his senses didnt work. When he came to his senses, he found himself on the ground.

Avoid it!

Baek Eon shouted. He could tell he pushed him in order to protect him.

From what, though?

The next moment, Baek Eons body was pushed back.

No.

Seol Young felt dazed. Some kind of pressure erupted from Baek Eons body, and his limbs jerked. His neatly tied hair unraveled, and then both of his eyes flashed.

At the same time, his Yin-Yang plaque fell and Baek Eons Sword Spirit was smashed.

No.

In Seol Youngs head, everything turned white

NO!
