Chapter: 1279

Ever since the Blade God Six Martial clan turned into a pain for Yulin, he asked numerous people as well as Jegal Sohi with numerous commissions and analyzed them.

At that time, Mak Wijong brought in his information, making him realize what the Blade God Six Martial clan was aiming for.

“They targeted the Imperial Palace, the North Sea, and the spirit beast in Lhasa.”

Their purpose became clear.

Their reason for constantly cornering the other factions while avoiding any counterattacks, everything came clear.

“Amitabha! The spirit beasts? Which means they are aiming to covet the cores just like they did with the Flame Qilin in the palace?”

Yoo Beom-ryeo nodded in response to Gak-yeon’s question and pulled something out of his sleeve.

A book,

“Moral Sutras of Heaven?”

It was one of the Three Great Books.

A book that talked about myths and legends, which the scholars didn’t acknowledge.

“What about that book?”

At that, he turned to a page and spoke.

“As Saint Gak-yeon said, the Blade God Six Martial clan are targeting the spirit beasts. To be precise, they are aiming for the cores of the spirit beasts.”

“The cores? For the sake of power?”

“Well, honestly, it’s just another legend in this book but seeing how they are aiming for the cores of the five spirit beasts, I’m certain.”

“What the hell is that? Just answer already.”

Hong Palwoo urged him as he was running out of patience.

“They seem to believe that immortality is possible.”

“Immortality?”

“It’s said here that the one who attains the five cores of the beasts will attain eternal immortality.”

All the leaders and commanders who were listening thought that it had to be a mistake.

Everyone knew that the core of any spirit beast would give immense power and even prolong a person’s life.

However, the term ‘eternal immortality’ meant real immortality.

Hong Palwoo of the beggars association asked with a frown.

“Hold on. Unless this old man has heard something wrong, you are actually referring to the immortality that was supposedly coveted by some emperor?”

“Yes.”

Mumble!

‘Immortality?’

‘This has to be some kind of joke! Does the Blade God Six Martial clan really believe in such bizarre legends?’
