Chapter 210
Chapter 210. An Enemy’s Grace (3)
I gathered people for the Formation Breaking.
“He told me to bring Master as well, so I came with him.”
First came Murong Jae-hwa and Yeo Sam-tong of the Ghost Bow Sect, who was here as his Martial Arts Master.
Then I ordered Il-gak, Namgung Seon-hwa, and Cheol Sun-jik of the Twelve Peak Citadels to be called.
W eb̄n̆ о̇ vе l Е̇ ňu mӑ
While waiting for the others to arrive, I listened to the Jegal Clan’s Formation Master explain the Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation.
As of right now, I probably knew more about the Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation than the Formation Master did, but for now, I obediently pretended to listen.

“The Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation was created as a Life Formation from the start.”
“A Life Formation?”
I managed my expression as if I were hearing it for the first time.
The Formation Master’s shoulders rose with pride.
Е́ n̊ũ mа̌
“Until the energy of the entire Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation is exhausted, the formation will never collapse. If an impact occurs from inside or outside, the energy naturally moves and repairs the formation.”
It was true that the appearance of the concept of a Life Formation had changed the entire landscape of Mystic Gate Formations.
But I did not like seeing him act so triumphant even in a situation where a problem had occurred.
As if I had realized an astonishing fact, I deliberately smacked my forehead with an exaggerated gesture.

“Ah! So because of that, if we try to forcibly destroy it, all the Academy students might die.”
“......”

While I listened to the Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation being explained by the Formation Master, whose face now looked as if he had chewed on filth, everyone I had called arrived.
“I hear you called for me.”
Cheol Sun-jik, who had been summoned together with Il-gak and Namgung Seon-hwa, looked deeply dissatisfied.
Still, he came.
“May I ask why?”
I told him honestly.

“Because there are not many people I know who possess One Cycle of inner arts.”
“......Nam Hwa-seong also has One Cycle of inner arts.”
“Does that man seem like he can control his internal qi delicately?”
When I gave that assessment with a shrug, Cheol Sun-jik could not really object.
After a brief silence, he stared at me and said,
“Do you think I will help you, Representative Jin So-un?”

“I am not asking you to help me.”
“Then?”

Who else could it be? My reliable backer.
“I am telling you to follow the Grand Strategist’s command.”
“The Grand Strategist?”
When my gaze moved behind him, Cheol Sun-jik turned around in shock.

“Is there a problem?”
Jegal So-myeong’s heavy voice struck him.
Cheol Sun-jik lowered his head and broke out in a cold sweat.
“......N-no.”

Jegal So-myeong looked Cheol Sun-jik over once, then looked at me.
“How long will it take you to prepare?”
W ё ḃ n̊ óv̈е̄ l Еňumа́
“I will finish within fifteen minutes.”
“Good.”
While Jegal So-myeong prepared for any possible situation, I asked Yeo Sam-tong,
“Can you help Jae-hwa shoot arrows at four places simultaneously?”
“Four places?”
I nodded and explained more clearly.

“They must fall at the same time.”
Yeo Sam-tong sank into thought for a moment.
“Hmm......”
“Brother, I am not yet skilled enough for that......”
Then he soon nodded.
“I think it is possible.”
Е̂_n̈_ŭ mа . id̆
“Pardon?”
Instead of the stunned Murong Jae-hwa, Yeo Sam-tong spoke confidently.

“The wind blowing around the Grand Riding Ground is not that strong, so it should be possible.”
“What does that......”
I looked at Yeo Sam-tong and held a clasped hands greeting.
“Understood. Then please prepare according to my signal.”
Ĕ num̆ a.іd̈
“No, no! Brother! I cannot do it!”
It was clearly a story about him, yet the conclusion had been reached while he himself, the person involved, was excluded, so he seemed flustered.
Honestly, this was not even the first time. Why was he so flustered?
I grabbed Murong Jae-hwa’s shoulders with both hands.

“Jae-hwa! The lives of seventy-eight people depend on your hands! You can do it!”
“No...... Brother! I said I cannot......”
Еn u m̀ а . i̊ d́
“Everyone else, please come here.”
“B-Brother......?”
Leaving Murong Jae-hwa behind like that, I finished preparations by telling Il-gak, Namgung Seon-hwa, Cheol Sun-jik, and Buk Won-pyeong where and how they needed to prepare.
While everyone moved to their positions and settled in, only Cheol Sun-jik remained standing in place, staring intently at me.
“Do you perhaps not understand the method?”
There was no way that clever man did not understand.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
No, was working together really that unpleasant for him?
Still, this was about saving people.
“That is not what I am curious about.”
Cheol Sun-jik’s gaze sank coldly.
“Why are you doing this?”
“What do you mean?”
W_еb̈n̆óv̂ е l Еň ûm̃а́
As if he could not understand it at all, Cheol Sun-jik asked me,
“The Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation is a newly created Mystic Gate Formation. No matter how outstanding Representative Jin So-un may be, I do not believe you can safely break a Mystic Gate Formation you have seen for the first time. If so......”

Then he took one step closer to me and lowered his voice further.
“Can you not simply pretend you do not know?”
“......”
“If you do, the Orthodox Path Association will naturally collapse, and Representative Jin So-un’s position will become solid.”
W еb n о̄ vе̃ ĺ E n̊u m а
It was a reasonable question.
As he said, I might be doing something foolish right now.
Until a gigantic force completely collapsed, it was a monster that fiercely pursued its own interests.
Perhaps by stepping forward, I might allow the Orthodox Path Association to escape the crisis of collapse.

But.
What of it?
W̄ е̌ b̆ nӧv̇е l̀ Е ṅ ǔḿ а̂.
Even in my past life, those who were ground down for political reasons were always the ones at the bottom.
Only when the blood of those insignificant people flowed and flowed until it stained their own feet did the people at the top finally come to their senses.
Now that I possessed even this trifling amount of power, was I supposed to act exactly like those who had been soaked in the inertia of power?
Was I supposed to imitate that baseness and become the same kind of person?
Unfortunately for them.
“Because I can.”

I had not the slightest intention of becoming the same kind of base human being as them.
“Pardon?”
At my answer, Cheol Sun-jik furrowed his brow as if he could not understand.
I looked at him indifferently.
“I can save them, so I am saving them. That is the only reason.”
Cheol Sun-jik’s eyes trembled violently, as if he still could not understand.

“......But if you fail, you may have to bear the responsibility. Are you truly fine with that?”
I shrugged once and answered him.

“That is the responsibility the person giving orders must bear. Is it not?”
“......”
Cheol Sun-jik bit his lip gently, as if something about it frustrated him.
Life Formation.

A peerless Mystic Gate Formation that obstructed the path of the Demonic Practitioners and prevented slaughter.
However, the appearance of the Demon Brain, who could break even this peerless Mystic Gate Formation, was a great blow to the Murim Alliance.
The Sojeong Squad had also been stripped of every sanctuary where we could at least rest a little, so we had ground our teeth at the Demon Brain again and again.
But now, using the method the Demon Brain had used to break the Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation felt strange.

‘Am I receiving help from that damn Demon Brain?’
I quickly shook the idle thoughts out of my head.

So what if I received the Demon Brain’s help?
It meant I could save people.
If I could save allies and strike down enemies, I would gladly receive help not just from the Demon Brain, but even from the Heavenly Demon.
I steadied my heart and looked around.
“I will begin.”
At my shout, the four people positioned at four of the Eight Gates began raising their internal qi at the same time.

They infused powerful internal qi into the four gates excluding the main four gates, such as Life, Death, Open, and Rest.
RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE.
Under the pressure tightening from all directions, the Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation began trembling.
The visible Mystic Gate Formation, as if its innards, which should never have been seen, had been exposed, showed every part of its movement to the outside.
Soon, the black mists filling the inside of the Mystic Gate Formation began slowly gathering toward the attacked four gates.
It was trying to concentrate power at the attacked points to defend against external force.

And.
“Now!”

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!
Our chance came.
At the same time, the four people’s internal qi burst out, and for an instant, the form of the Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation collapsed.
I shouted toward the four people.
Е̇ǹ ŭm̆ а . іd̃
“It starts now! Infuse your internal qi steadily!”
The Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation kept trying to gather power to repair its broken outer wall, but perhaps the force rushing in from outside was too strong, because it could not properly restore itself.
In the end, even the power surrounding the main four gates gradually began moving toward the other four gates.
“Jae-hwa!”

At my signal, Murong Jae-hwa, on the roof, began shooting arrows according to Yeo Sam-tong’s instructions.
Thunk. Thunk. Thunk. Thunk.
W̃е bnо̃vе l Ӗ n̄ u̇ m ӓ.
The four arrows, each rising in a different path, climbed so high they could no longer be seen, then fell at the same time.
Soon, the blunt arrowheads fell simultaneously onto the pillars of Life, Death, Open, and Rest.
BOOM BOOM BOOM—CRASH!
With an impact that shook the ground, the Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation surged for a moment.
As if it had noticed that the main four gates had been attacked, it quickly tried to send power toward them.
I could not miss this.

“You have to seize it!”
This was why I had no choice but to call Cheol Sun-jik instead of Nam Hwa-seong.
We had to keep holding back the returning power.
“GRAAAAAAGH!”
“GRAAAAGH!”
“Hup!”
W̊е̌ b̃ ǹ о̆ve l Е́ n u m а
Perhaps the power of attraction was no joke, because everyone except Buk Won-pyeong filled their voices with shouts.
The mist of the Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation partially disappeared, and the figures of the people inside the Mystic Gate Formation began to appear.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Hope was beginning to show.
Now, the last step.
Standing on the roof of the pavilion at the exact center, I unleashed the Flying Dragon Claw endlessly and bound the four pillars of the Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation.
“GRAAAAAAAAGH!”
W еb ń о̊ vе l Е.ñ um̂а
Then I grabbed the Heavenly Silkworm Thread with both hands and pulled on the pillars forming the four gates.
Soon, the Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation began shaking little by little.
It felt precarious, like a loose baby tooth about to come out.
If I did just a little more, I felt I could pull out all the pillars.

At that moment.
“Uh, uh!”
W_е̂b nо̃v е l̀ Е̌ṅ üm а̇
I had deliberately called Cheol Sun-jik instead of Nam Hwa-seong to control the internal qi.
However, perhaps he had failed to predict the force of the energy surging as the pillars shook, because shock appeared on Buk Won-pyeong’s and Il-gak’s faces.
“Benefactor Jin!”
“Jin So-un! We lost it......!”
The energy that had been blocking the four people instantly moved toward the pillars I was trying to pull out.
The four people could not immediately stabilize the surging energy.

Because of that, the Mystic Gate Formation’s power began moving toward the main four gates.
At this rate, I might soon be dragged into the Mystic Gate Formation.
‘Damn it!!!!’
From here on, it was a battle of endurance.
With the mindset of a gambler staking his life on a gambling table, I poured in every bit of my energy.
‘Do you know how much Spiritual Medicine I have eaten!!!’
Е̌ num̄ а̀ . і d
Then I began pulling the pillars with vicious determination.
The taut Heavenly Silkworm Thread began cutting into my palms, but I paid it no mind and put in even more strength.

Pain like my nerves were being torn to pieces invaded my whole body.
However, remembering the screams of those trapped inside the Mystic Gate Formation, I roared.
“GRAAAAAAAAGH!!”
When one entered the Two Principles Eight Trigrams Myriad Phenomena Formation, a terrible nightmare rose up.
W̆ е̂_b n̆ô v̄ ё l̃ Ё ň um å
Those who had experienced killing were swept up in guilt, and those who had committed wrongs were seized by guilt and could not move.
They had merely intended to experience the Myriad Phenomena Formation, yet the energy dominating their Upper Qi Center drained all strength from their bodies.
They tried to raise the energy from their qi centers to protect their Steadfast Hearts, but they could not shake off the illusion.

An Academy student who had just escaped the illusion looked down at his own hands.
The corpses that had filled the surroundings moments ago, and the bloodstains that had covered his entire body, had all disappeared.
Е n um̆ а̀ .i d
“I-I am sure......”
In the illusion, his clan had been exterminated because of his own mistake.
His family, relatives, comrades, and friends had all died, and only he remained, waiting for death.
That had definitely been the case......
Just as he had been begging and pleading with an enemy whose face he could not see.
The scene he had thought was real suddenly disappeared.

‘What happened?’
His violently trembling hands.
His clean martial arts uniform, without a single stain.
Around him were Academy students who looked just as dazed as he was.
Only then did he realize that he had entered the Myriad Phenomena Formation and seen an illusion.
At that moment.

“GRAAAAAAAAGH!!”
When he raised his head at the shout above him, he saw a man gripping a thin thread and exerting strength.

It was a man who looked somehow familiar.
‘J-Jin So-un?’
He could not hide his shock at the fact that the man’s identity was Jin So-un.
Wondering if this was another illusion, he looked around.

The other Academy students also seemed to be seeing the same sight, because they wore shocked expressions.
“I cannot hold it!”
Someone’s voice came from beyond the Myriad Phenomena Formation.
Along with that sound, black clouds began covering the ceiling once again.

The Academy students swallowed by the black clouds soon began screaming inside them.
Aaaaaaagh!
Еn u m̂а̇
Ah, h-h-hah.
Please...... please......
Forgive me! I was wrong!
The sounds of weeping could be heard clearly.
Only then did the Academy students realize that entering those clouds meant seeing illusions, and that Jin So-un was doing something to stop it.
‘But why......’

Jin So-un was no different from an enemy to those affiliated with the Orthodox Path Association.
Most of the people who had entered this place were those who had harbored strong hostility toward Jin So-un and participated in the Orthodox Path Association’s event.
Why was Jin So-un trying to save them?
“GRAAAAAAAAGH!!”
Perhaps it was difficult to hold the thin thread with both hands, because he wrapped the thread around his arms again and again.
The tension digging into his flesh caused his skin to swell strangely, and blood flowed from both hands, running down along the thread.

“Why...... in the world......”
“What is this......”

“Not Jegal Jeong-gi...... but Jin So-un?”
The reactions of the other Academy students were not much different.
Everyone simply stared blankly at Jin So-un’s desperate expression, even forgetting that they themselves were in danger.
At that moment, a thunderous shout burst from Jin So-un’s mouth as he looked down.
Е̃n̄ ǔ m̀а̀.і̊ d́
“What are you idiots doing?! Break the pillars connected to the threads right now!”
“What? What did he say?”
Blood was still dripping from both his hands.
“Urgh...... If you want to get out of there, break the pillars!”

“U-understood!”
Without anyone needing to go first, the people stood before the pillars connected to Jin So-un’s threads.

Even though they were inside the Myriad Phenomena Formation, finding the pillars was not difficult.
Because the blood flowing from the threads was wetting the pillars.
“Move faster, you bastards!”
No one frowned at Jin So-un’s curse.
They simply struck the pillars as if possessed, exactly as he had told them.
CRASH, CRASH, CRASH, CRASH, CRASH, CRASH.

When everyone scraped together every bit of internal qi they had and began striking the pillars, the pillars soon began shaking violently.
Craaaack.
And at that moment.
“Haaaap!!!”
Along with Jin So-un’s mighty shout, the pillars were pulled out all at once and shot high into the sky.
THUD, THUD, THUD-THUD.

At the same time, the four pillars fell to the ground.
Soon, the black mist that had covered all directions slowly thinned and completely dissolved.

“H-heavens!”

The rare ultimate formation said to surpass the Seven Stars Seven Seizures Formation.
Jin So-un had broken it.

The people inside the Myriad Phenomena Formation and those outside it all stared at Jin So-un with their mouths hanging open.
“Damn it! I really almost died there.”

Jin So-un sank heavily onto the ground and spat out a curse, and people’s gazes naturally turned toward his hands and arms.
“Damn Orthodox Path Association bastards! If you are going to cause accidents, do it in moderation.”

The majority of the people inside the Grand Riding Ground belonged to the Orthodox Path Association, but no one showed hostility at his words or rushed at him.
“......”

“......!”
Everyone merely stared blankly at his hands and arms, which were covered in blood.
