Outside the Work
Q: Is Ender(종명자) an anagram for alarm clock(자명종)?
A: No… I read this in a community post, and was mindblown lol.
Q: From any stories that Seo Eun-hyun experienced, are any of them from your own experience?
A: Rather, I think I got more of the villains’ stories from my life. Not sure about Seo Eun-hyun.
Worldbuilding
Q: If authorities of Enders are minor versions of Divine Arts, are the authorities decided by the life the Enders lived on Earth?
A: Yep.
Q: If Oh Hye-seo’s Truth Manipulation was grinded out to maximum and the Seat of Naming was completely seized as well, can it affect names or nouns? If it can affect nouns? Could one turn “Immortal Cultivation is Repentant Enlightenment” into “Immortal Cultivation is Korean Melon” and nullify that?
A: Things like Mantras have been softened for the readers, and in truth(?) the meaning is more important, so even if the noun is changed, as long as the meaning is contained well, it does not matter.
Q: So what is the identity of Heavenly Rejection and Enders receiving calamity from True Immortals?
A: Heavenly Rejection ← The world balancing irregular beings who received too much fortune from birth(Hong Fan, Gwak Am, Enders, etc) by throwing misfortune at them. The True Immortal calamity is in the same vein. They have received too much from the Owner of Immortal Cultivation, so there is no space for beings that follow the Immortal Cultivation system to give more benefits to them.
Q: So did Time end up just possessing the feat of creating Mount Sumeru?
A: The moment Hong Fan died, the feats were all simply left as events in the past, and the power and ownership of the feats all just went up in smoke.
Q: What happens if there are so many Supreme Deities that all beings are born at the Supreme Deity rank? Is that possible in the first place?
A: I think leaving this answer blank would be more fun. Imagine it in many directions.
Q: What are the other Origin Essences of the Absolutes? In the work, we have only seen Akashic Record, the Origin Essence of History.
A: Literally the Future and Miracle. Future itself is the Origin Essence of Fate, and Miracle itself is the Origin Essence of Miracle.
Q: With the authority of a Sacred Master of Astral Realm and Middle Realm, how much can they increase talent if done to the maximum?
A: They can mass produce Heavenly Spiritual Roots. They can guarantee free passage up to Nascent Soul, and with well placed blessings, grand perfection of Four Axis would be easy to reach as well. But from Integration, it becomes hard just from talent given by Sacred Master.
Q: What are the effects of Kunyu Filling the Heavens and Great Mountain Filling the Heavens of Castle Wall Heavenly Lord and Field Garden Heavenly Lord, and what roles do the two Immortal Arts take in the God-Killing Spear?
A: Kunyu Filling the Heavens ← like how Kunyu(Earth) rotates, forces matter to orbit around an object as the center. It can force Immortal Arts or True Immortals to orbit as well. It applies rotation to the God-Killing Spear.
Great Mountain Filling the Heavens ← Immortal Art that decomposes the opponent and turn them into fertilizer for light. Great Mountain applies a life-draining effect. With the life-draining effect, God-Killing Spear can be recycled.
Q: I think Entering Nirvana rank Heart Demons and the Heart Demon inside Heavenly Void furnace could be considered to be living beings as well, did Naming Supreme Deity create the judgement method because he pitied such beings?
A: It’s ambiguous to consider them living beings… They are like viruses, which lack the nucleus of cells. If they are Heart Demons that created their own solid nucleus(Dao Heart), they can be considered living beings as well.
Q: If one is as lucky(?) as Seo Hweol, could they enjoy life in Mount Sumeru as an innate Sacred Vessel or Entering Nirvana?
A: Possible.
Q: What are the Daos least followed by True Immortals other than the ones seized by Supreme Deities or other beings that are too strong.
A: I think it would be the Daos that are considered a bit filthy. Like the Seat of Trash, or the Seat of Poo and Pee… Immortal Dao of Waste Products… things like that.
Q: Do beings with high levels of enlightenment like Seo Eun-hyun and Salt Sea have the same probability of ascending to True Immortal as the Entering Nirvana at the Nether Ghost Realm?
A: The probability is not equal, with high enlightenment. Even though the probability of death is equal, with the mindset of truly throwing one’s self into it, they can succeed regardless of the probability…
Q: What happened to Immortal Lords that obtained a Seat but did not reach Supreme Deity and could not combine with other selves after the ending? There is only one owner of the Seat per Seat. Fight themselves and all become Great Net Immortal except one?
A: Rather than fight, they became fused. Specifics may be shown in later works…
Q: The previous Creator God appears to be a high ranking Creator God, is that correct?
A: There is no rank among Creator Gods. They are all equal. No such thing as some Creator Gods being more equal either.
Q: What’s the principle behind Creator Gods healing faster when moving at the speed of Nirvana Tranquility?
A: Nirvana Tranquility ← Omnipotence
The regenerating ability of Creator Gods ← Omnipotence
It is because Omnipotence+Omnipotence both worked for the purpose of ‘healing Creator Gods’.
Q: Can an Owner of the Thrones(Seo Eun-hyun, Bong Hwa) be subdued by other Heavenly Venerables who gained a Seat at the Thrones working together? Or will they just lose?
A: ‘Theoretically’ possible. Much like a certain person’s theory that the world would all turn communist, it is possible in theory.
Q: Lifespan of cultivators increases extremely in the Minor Boundary and the Middle Boundary, so what do the cultivators do as hobbies or enjoyment to kill time?
A: Minor Boundary cultivators have a lot of normal hobbies such as Go, painting, poetry, and alchemy… but in Middle Boundary, they enjoy creating servant races and reigning as gods, be named as Outer God of another world and make a mess in a Decaying Corpse Realms like Seo Eun-hyun did in Ham Jin’s world, or descending as a demon king. As for Sacred Vessel and Entering Nirvana, they like pretending to be True Immortals the most.
Q: In a previous QNA, you have said the Yang Su-jin was not the most talented Ender, so if an Ender with the most talent lived like Yang Su-jin could they become Immortal Lord in decades or centuries?
A: The fastest speedrun possible is ultimately around Yang Su-jin’s record. They could shave off around a century at most from the 3000 years, but I don’t think they could make it extremely faster.
Q: Are Origin Essences that formed from lack of connection unrelated to the First Light?
A: More or less.
Q: I really enjoyed your novel and webtoon. 3 trivias about Governing Immortals please…!
A: 1. It is really hard to become a Governing Immortal. There is the difficulty of the Supreme Deity advancement ritual itself too, but if anybody among the countless Immortal Lords and Supreme Deities that already advanced have a grudge against you, you will definitely be sabotaged… Bong Myeong successfully advanced despite such unfair difficulties, drawing attention to themselves 40,000 years ago. This is partly why Yu Hao Te tried to advance inside the Audience Chamber.
2. Governing Immortals can become a Middle Realm, a Heavenly Domain, nothing, or just chaos after their death. They can usually choose which before they die.
3. When one becomes a Governing Immortal, they become a concept that exists across every universe, so they are worshipped as divinity and hear prayers from all sorts of places. So this is quite noisy. Because of the senses of Governing Immortals, they can’t just not hear it and it gets transmitted directly to their mind, so they cannot ignore it either.
Q: If the Absolute of Miracle can cause miracles, can it cause a miracle on other Absolutes and taint the true nature of the other Absolutes?
A: It is possible to do things like changing the true nature of the Absolute of History into the Absolute of Trash using the Absolute of Miracle for a ‘short time’. But 3000 years at maximum.
Q: How did Sword Rain Filling the Heavens destroy a Heavenly Domain despite not surpassing Vast Cold’s strength?
A: By drawing upon the Origin Essence of Radiance, Vast Cold(who was dead)’s laws were temporarily surpassed.
Q: How are Gandharas made?
A: When an Absolute is descended and the Heavenly Domain one possesses is given a special role, the Gandhara is formed by combining the Heavenly Domain(the conscious domain) and the True Body of the Governing Immortal.
System and Realms
Q: Is the appearance of Heart Dao Blooming over now? Bit wasteful to throw it away after a single use.
A: But… the novel is already over…
Q: What’s the difference between True Emperors, the realm Bong Hwa and Seo Eun-hyun is at, and Heavenly Venerables using other realms as metaphor?
A: True Emperor = Supreme Deity, Heavenly Venerable = Great Net ~ Immortal Lord.
Seo and Bong at the Ending = the head of Radiance Ten Heaven Lords with their bloated Seat.
Q: After the ending, is there a route for Flower Immortals of the Heard Dao Blooming to seize and dominate an Origin Essence to become Brilliance Kings = Governing Immortals, like Heaven and Earth Immortals?
A: Yes. But the route is not stabilized yet, so Kim & Seo would have to refine it for a long time.
Q: After the final battle, there is probably a route for normal beings to become Brilliance Kings as well, so have you decided on the method of advancement and their special abilities?
A: Honestly, I am not sure about the advancement method… as for their special abilities, (if Heaven Immortals have Fate and Earth Immortals have History) I thought of it in the direction of uncertainty and chaos for Flower Immortals.
Q: Name for Seo & Bong’s Realm at the end of the work was undecided and not shown, so have you decided on a name?
A: Not yet.
Q: What’s the name of the realm Seo Eun-hyun and Bong Hwa reached, which is lower than True Emperor but much higher than normal Heavenly Venerable rank?
A: I don’t have one yet. In truth, it is a similar realm to normal Heavenly Venerables (descend Absolute with their own strength), so it could just be considered Heavenly Venerable… I will think about it.
Q: Is Martial Pinnacle that hard? The 3 people that reached Martial Pinnacle in Mount Sumeru are Hong Fan(took 3 cycles), Young-hoon(20 billion years), and Seo Eun-hun(50 trillion 500 billion years according to narration), and given these examples including super genius, genius, and dullard, in the long history of Mount Sumeru, there seems to be possibility for a Supreme Deity with Severing Heaven realm martial arts to reach it, so why are there so few of them?
A: I didn’t want to do something like the bargain sale of Super Saiyans, so I decided that it should be hard.
Q: When Seo Eun-hyun was reaching Seated Detachment, Entering Hope, he said the number 3 was more important than taiji, was this foreshadowing about Triple Divinity?
A: Yep.
Q: Is Immortal Beast King a realm multiple being can reach, now?
A: Yes.
Q: In RToC, is Martial Pinnacle possible inside a world without qi and intent?
A: Yes.
Q: Can a Heavenly Being cultivator conquer Earth alone?
A: If there is just one of them, I think they will be nuked to death. But with 3 or more, I think it’s possible.
Q: Is the Absolute of a True Emperor not absolute against other True Emperors?
A: It is absolute. It just does not appear so, because they have a lot of abilities to deal with it.
Q: Did the History and Miracle pathway gain things like the Winged Garment as well?
A: Yes.
Q: Is it possible to kill a Creator God with Separate Heaven Martial Arts(including Hong Fan’s True Salvation)?
A: It is possible to kill them temporarily. Theoretically.
Cultivation Methods, Immortal Arts
Q: How is Black Blood Tears Flower used at a lower realm? Old Man Seo the curse master, makes an entire flower field, but at lower mastery one cannot even make 10 flowers.
A: It’s a cultivation method for making seeds of curses and planting them in one’s own body or others’ body to grow them slowly. As the sprouts of curses grow more, one can fire more curses.
Q: I don’t get why the Wheel had to be repaired. Since it’s Immortal Art, can’t it be created again?
A: It’s like the brain of a person. One can think as much as they want with their brain, but if it overheats, the brain is cooked and cannot return to function.
Q: Thinking about it, Summoning Wind, True Blood Transformation was a demon beast cultivation method, so was part of why Yuan Li was so strong because he was Heaven and Earth dual cultivator?
A: Woah, never thought about this… Sounds correct?
Q: What’s the character for Star Extinguishing True Chapter?
A: I will just… leave it as Korean…
BlueMangoAde’s note: the hanja for the Immortal Art was never given by the novel, meaning the translation Star Extinguishing True Chapter is also a guess.
Factions
Q: What happens to Radiance Hall after the end of the story?
A: The majority are divided up and absorbed by Star Genesis Hall and Netherworld, and the Eight Immortals, no the Seven Immortals, become a middle~small sized organization and try to continue the will of the Radiance Hall.
Q: Other than the Enders, who lead the faction of Star Genesis Hall?
A: I have not decided on any yet.
Q: Did the Radiance Ten Heavenly Lords originally have 12 members? Because it was said to be 12 before… If so, who are the other 2?
A: There were 10 members. There were only 12 members when Hong Fan was running a happiness simulation with Yang Hwe’s hand in his hand.
Q: Are the Star Genesis Ten Immortal Lords, Ten Underworld Kings receiving the power of the Life Supreme Deity, or the Radiance Ten Heavenly Lords practically treated like Supreme Deities? Or like Immortal Lords?
A: Practically like Supreme Deities.
Characters After the End
Q: Speaking of Supreme Deities, who are the ones shown in the work that will become Supreme Deities after the advent of Seo Eun-hyun’s reign?
A: Those who could become Supreme Deities… I think Wol Ryeong or Jeon Myeong-hoon. But if Wol Ryeong has 90% chance, Jeon Myeong-hoon only has 5% chance, just possible to reach it.
Q: Any beings among the Immortal Beast King candidates that could reach Supreme Deity?
A: At current point, none of them.
Q: Among the Enders left, how many could reach Supreme Deity?
A: Only Jeon Myeong-hoon has 5% chance.
Q: I thought every Ender was going to reach Supreme Deity, you changed it?
A: It was said from Seo Eun-hyun’s perspective, so it was his wish.
Q: Can we just think whatever we want happened to the heroines on Earth?
A: Yep. As long as you don’t plan on limb cutting guro or NTR.
Seo Eun-hyun
Q: Seo Eun-hyun and Sword Spear are Heavenly Venerables now, so what’s the names of their Gandhara?
A: Uh… I have not decided…
Q: If Seo Eun-hyun just had Martial Pinnacle and fought with the weight class of a mortal, what’s the strongest foe he can defeat?
A: I will think about it… But as long as one has Martial Pinnacle, is it even possible to have the weight class of a mortal…?
Other Enders
Q: Could an Ender with [Ego Preservation] like Seo Eun-hyun theoretically spam the Heavenly Void Furnace?
A: Theoretically possible.
Q: What do the other Judges think of Oh Hye-seo training to be a Judge?
A: About Oh Hye-seo… they think of their boss’s new slave, rather than a colleague. If she is competent at work and gains experience, they might start treating her as their colleague…
Q: In the case of Oh Hye-seo, I know that she is making up for the price of her sins by working as a Judge, so has she been repenting and blessing the reincarnations of her victims?
A: She is somewhat repenting while taking care of the worms. But it will take much longer.
Q: When Young-hoon came to Earth without an Absolute fragment, was he just a Heavenly Being level loser?
A: A Supreme Deity is like a shareholder of the Cultivation System, so as long as a Supreme Deity is in the same dimension, Martial Pinnacle is maintained. And since the Heart Dao Blooming system is already open, he is half treated like a Flower Immortal as well… so even without Seo Eun-hun…
Q: Can Young-hoon just become a Heart Tribe Supreme Deity without training Heaven or Earth using Heart Dao Blooming or his own martial arts system?
A: Theoretically possible. Not sure if he would want it.
Q: Can Su-jin the superstar of RToC also advance to Supreme Deity?
A: I think he is more likely to be beaten to death by people with a grudge against him before that.
Q: What were Silver Basket and Oh Hye-seo’s guide treated specially? Because they were Immortal Arts that seemed like individual to Sword Spear, but counted as multiple?
A: It’s easier to say they were just Immortal Arts treated like multiple people.
Q: Considering the Enders’ life in both Earth, Head Realm, etc, what’s their favorite foods?
A: Kim - Doenjang-guk
Jeon - Teppan Fried Rice
Kang - Curry
Oh - Honey
Yeon - Potato dishes in general
Hye - Carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in general
Sep - Potato
Q: Was the reason Hong Fan killed Obsidian’s girlfriend stated in the work?
A: To truly awaken Obsidian.
Q: Did the Enders return to the right time when they were returned to their worlds? A slight mistake could leave them in space.
A: They were all sent roughly within the right time period. It could be 10 years before or 30~40 years after, but roughly correct.
Q: Is there a reason Lapis Enders like curry?
A: It’s just a coincidence… I really did not intend it.
Mountain Spirits
Q: So a previous Q&A said that the Supreme Deity who noticed regression that Underworld mentioned was Fate Supreme Deity, so was Great Mountain saying that they were the Heavenly Venerable rank being that noticed regression a lie?
A: Gwak Am is the third most insidious character, behind Seo Hweol and Hong Fan. They lied as nearly as much as Seo Hweol.
Q: Gwak Am annihilated themselves like their master, but Ryeong was reincarnated. What now?
A: If Ryeong eventually regains memory and strength after reincarnation, it will be decided then.
Q: So in the 16th cycle, did Seo Eun-hyun only consider the Heavenly Venerable of Purity as Heavenly Venerable of Purity, and only think that they were similar to Cheongmun Ryeong?
A: Yes.
Q: Is Salt Sea’s Gandhara as the Heavenly Venerable of Purity the Outer Sea?
A: Salt Sea’s Gandhara was molten inside Heavenly Void Furnace?
Governing Immortal
Q: What was the thing that Underworld received from Eun-hyun that she talked about as she returned the light of Sword Spear?
A: After Sword Spear cried about Seo Eun-hyun and begged Underworld, Underworld has obtained control over the Seat of Sword Spear itself and the access to connecting to the Origin Essence of Light.
Q: According to Void, Sal Tree and Time originally had life of their own before the feats of the Future King were placed on them to turn them into Heavenly Venerables, so what kind of people were they before that?
A: That… would be more fun to leave blank.
Q: So what I didn’t understand was that before Sal Tree died, they said something about the next generation of Sal Tree? Were there multiple Sal Trees?
A: If spirits without cultivation of their own spend too long, the ego can be destroyed, so in that case the spirit is replaced too.
Q: Was Sal Tree just reincarnated back into the Flower Field?
A: I will leave that to your imagination.
Q: How did Bong Myeong intervene with the Guides?
A: They were watching and intervened with Head Realm through measures such as placing Origin Essence inside the Serving Command Palace, which they built when they were human.
Q: After the final battle did Bong Myeong and others get resurrected?
A: They were reincarnated. Not sure if they will keep their memories.
Q: What are the True Titles of Bong Hwa, Bong Myeong, and Swallowing Heaven?
A: Bong Hwa’s True Title is the “Golden Mother of the Jade Pond Lady Queen Mother Imperial Throne of the Underworld Wheel Imperial Venerable” thing that was stated when she appeared.
I thought of Bong Myeong’s but I forgot…
And I never decided on Swallowing Heaven’s…
Q: Since the Twin Holding Heavenly Domain is intact, Swallowing Heaven is back as Supreme Deity?
A: Governing Immortals can choose what to leave behind after their death.
Q: What was the shocking thing Time injected into the Enders in the 2012th cycle or so?
A: Time’s own plan.
Q: Hyeon Mu received unimaginable pain from Silver Basket, Obsidian, and Vasto Cold, but why did she fight them?
A: Just Heart Tribe being Heart Tribe.
True Immortals
Q: Did the Radiance Hall want the Filling the Heavens Governing View because it started with Filling the Heavens?
A: It was a symptom of becoming similar to the being that is lending them power.
Q: Can Glass Peacock and Azure Peng become a Supreme Deity while fused?
A: It is impossible while they are fused.
Q: I am sorry for asking again, but it was discovered that the one who left the memos in the Serving Command Palace in the Head Realm and the Ancient Force Realm was Blood Yin, so how were they able to leave a message inside Head Realm? Did they use the Yuan Clan to work inside Head Realm for a short time?
A: Exactly.
BlueMangoAde’s note: reference to short story in Tremendous’ blog:
https://blog.naver.com/chungnanum/223624484850
Q: Blood Yin was fine and alive before the 998th cycle, so as the frozen timelines restarted, did Blood Yin lose their Seat, pushed away by Kang Min-hee and Oh Hye-seo?
A: ??: Now the Imperial Venerable even took my Seat away! What’s the point of living!! ← they are probably saying this while sobbing.
Q: I personally like White-Winged Pegasus, so how strong are they, compared to other Immortal Lords? Their martial art is strong enough to talk about enlightenment of martial art in the Hyeon Mu battle, and they are an Immortal Beast King candidate as well.
A: They are in the top 10% of Immortal Lords. Since they are an Immortal Beast King candidate…
Wol Ryeong and Wuji Religious Order
Q: Did Wol Ryeong and the Corpse Mountain Blood Sea follow the Enders to Earth? Can the things spinning the main body be separated?
A: They could not follow the time reversal of Requiem Filling the Heavens, so they waited in the 2999th cycle’s timeline until Seo Eun-hyun returned, and joined Seo Eun-hyun’s orbit afterwards. They spin around the main body and return inside Seo Eun-hyun’s body if they get dizzy. It’s just the normal state… they can be rendered invisible.
Q: Wol Ryeong only received 10 Star Veins, so how did she immediately produce Heaven and Earth spiritual energy?
A: Because she was connected to the fate of Sword Spear and received more power from Fate. Ah, and Heaven and Earth spiritual energy production is little more reliant on the ecosystem inside the body than the star veins in the first place.
Q: How is Wol Reong doing these days…?
A: No idea.
Seo Hweol
Q: Who exactly was Seo Hweol’s parents?
A: No specific parents. Seo Hweol was just an error that coincidentally happened in Agate. But after Hong Fan, ‘coincidentally’ disappeared and Hong Fan became the cause of all things, so technically Hong Fan is his parent… but by this logic, all beings inside Mount Sumeru are Hong Fan’s children so it is meaningless.
Q: Was there a reason Seo Hweol was selected as the individual Guide of Oh Hye-seo?
A: Because Seo Hweol is the owner of Tainted Soul Filling the Heavens, so the term individual or group is meaningless to him.
Q: Will Seo Hweol after reincarnation be screwed over by previous life’s karma or live a happy life thanks to Oh Hye-seo being his sponsor?
A: Not decided. Probably closer to the latter. The reincarnation is a temporary break given because the soul might become tired from being tortured as worms…
Q: If reincarnated Seo Hweol succeeded in becoming a True Immortal, does he stop paying for his sins?
A: It’s the same if he dies after becoming a True Immortal. It’s theoretically possible if he never dies, but the probability of that is near 0.
Other Characters
Q: What happened to Hyun-seok’s daughter from Penglai Island?
A: Reincarnated inside the body of his wife on Earth.
Q: Does Yuan Li receive any advantage from reincarnating after infinite flower reincarnation and punishment in the Underworld? Bit of a huge punishment for making a mistake as a noob.
A: Karmic Fire will become easier to handle after being reincarnated as flowers. But otherwise… Just reincarnates like other living beings.
Q: Even if Seo-hye fought Oh Hye-seo in the judgement, would she be absorbed by sheer weight class anyways?
A: The opponent was an Absolute fragment, so with high probability…
Q: Did you plan on genderbending Mad Lord all along?
A: Yes.
VSbattles
Q: I thought Future King without Divine Art = Creator God inside their world? Is that correct?
A: If it’s without Divine Art, Creator God inside their world > Future King. But if he succeeds in leaving the world it become Future King >= Creator God again…
Q: If Silver Basket inside their World and Final Seo Eun-hyun just fought, who would win?
A: Final Seo Eun-hyun was Seo Eun-hyun with all 3 absolutes… that’s just a Creator God… Between Creator Gods, the battle is undecided even if they fought each other.
Q: How strong would the fusion of Kim Young-hoon, Vast Cold, Salt Sea, and Obsidian be? The speed of a Creator God, Future King level Weight Class, Obsidian’s counter, and Salt Sea’s enlightenment combined.
A: With Salt Sea as the main personality… slightly weaker than Ender Supreme Deity Seo Eun-hyun.
Q: Who wins if the fusion for Seo Eun-hyun acknowledged by the Future King as his greatest enemy, fought the previous Creator God at their peak inside Mount Sumeru? Is the difference overwhelming?
A: The previous Creator God. But with Seo Eun-hyun’s strength, he could run away to outside the world.
Q: Would an ordinary True Emperor and Star Genesis Supreme Deity Seo Eun-hyun be equals in combat? Or would Seo Eun-hyun lose.
A: There is no such thing as an ordinary True Emperor… If it’s First King Bong Hwa vs Star Genesis Supreme Deity Seo Eun-hyun, Seo Eun-hyun will get hanged upside down and beaten.
Q: Is there a peak of strength in your worldbuilding? If so, did Future King reach that peak?
A: I never thought about it. I think Future King would be close to the peak?
Q: Who wins between the First Creator God of Mount Sumeru at their peak vs Future King with Divine Art activated?
A: The latter.
Q: Can Young-hoon with Heart-Mind Six Harmonies and Surpassing Radiance defeat Hyeon Mu alone?
A: Under the assumption that Hyeon Mu recovered her memories Hyeon Mu is practically the Future King that just uses True Martial Arts, so it is impossible because he cannot deal with Hope. But if it’s Hyeon Mu during the Hyeon Mu battle, he can kill her overwhelmingly.
The Final Boss
Q: Do the storybooks that Hong Fan spread also have combat power?
A: Rather than combat power… it’s like Tainted Soul Filling the Heavens. But specialized in surveillance more than erosion.𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Q: Who would receive a longer punishment between Su-jin vs Hong Fan? Any being who would be punished longer than the two?
A: By the weight of sins, definitely Hong Fan. There is no being who would be punished longer. But as for being that would be punished longer than Yang Su-jin, there are some beings such as Gwak Am if Corpse Mountain Blood Sea was acknowledged as sin and the previous Agate.
Q: What was the authority that Hong Fan was most careful about, like Ego Preservation?
A: Not any in particular. Ender authorities are all bullshit, so he was wary about all of them similarly.
