As if possessed, Chung Myung walked back to Nanyang.

The direction he was heading in was towards where the Sword Tomb had collapsed.

Walking neither fast nor slow, he arrived at the mountain and began to climb the path with a blank expression.

“Yak Seon. Untraceable Seizing Sword. Yak Seon. Untraceable Seizing Sword. Disciple…”

He was constantly muttering something.

Think.

Think about it.

Thinking wasn’t a huge thing, but Chung Myung was the only one who could solve this riddle now. Chung Myung’s mind was jumbled with countless clues in his mind.

‘What did I try to get?’

The Soul Vitality Pill. And the method of making it.

‘Where did I hear it?’

Sword Tomb. The Tomb of the man.

It was all wrong from the start.

Yak Seon was the Untraceable Seizing Sword, but the Untraceable Seizing Sword wasn’t Yak Seon. It was his fault for not seeing that subtle difference.

If Yak Seon had been the Untraceable Seizing Sword, he wouldn’t have tried to hide that fact, and he wouldn’t have made a Sword Tomb which screamed out his other identity to the world.

So, even if Yak Seon wanted to leave traces, they would have never been in the Sword tomb.

As a result, the only thing they found inside the Sword Tomb were rusted swords, right?

Then.

Then where are the traces of the pills of Yak Seon?

‘The road to outside.’

It was said that there were several trails on this mountain in the past. But at some point, it was said that those paths were abandoned due to the occurrence of natural disasters.

And the only path which was left led people right to the place where the Sword Tomb was located.

A vast and deep pit entered the eyes of Chung Myung as he climbed up the mountain. He stood there in front of the pit and looked around.

‘The Sword Tomb.’

This was the Sword Tomb.

Anyone who climbed the mountain would eventually reach this place.

“Tao… Anti-Tao… Path. A place with no path.”

No one who walked on a path that was different from this would ever reach here, and only those who took the right path could come here.

“…did you realize something?”

At the words of Baek Cheon, who asked softly, Chung Myung shook his head. Baek Cheon felt startled at the burning eyes of Chung Myung.

“Sasuk.”

“Yes.”

“What did those who found the Sword Tomb do?”

“What is that?”

“I asked what did the ones who enter the Sword Tomb do?”

“That…”

It was a random question, but he had to answer it. Because it was clear that Chung Myung had come here in a process of neatly organizing his thoughts.

“They went inside.”
