Chapter 158 Wudang Sect
“It’s not an old wound.”
Go Hyeon reflected on the day he confronted Dongbang Hwa.
It was a story Namgung-woo was quite familiar with as well. His encounter with Dongbang Hwa had taken place shortly before the Turmoil in Beijing, a time when the entire Under Heaven, not just the Martial World, was greatly shaken by news of the White Ghost Gate opening.
The Ghost Gate had appeared near Nanyang.
North of Nanyang, touching the foothills of the Qinling Mountains, stood a peak called Dushan Mountain.
It was there that the White Ghost Gate manifested.
The Henan Martial World was thrown into chaos. A White Ghost Gate, transcending even the Black, appearing in Henan Province, which was practically the heart of the Righteous Faction Martial World—it was unthinkable.
It was clear that if it fully opened, the Righteous Faction Martial World would suffer catastrophic damage.
The Righteous Faction Martial World moved swiftly. While sending requests for cooperation to other regions, all the great sects located in Henan mobilized.
The Martial Alliance, Shaolin Temple, Beggar’s Sect, and the Xuanyuan Clan.
Primordial Extreme Xuanyuan Kang, the Xuanyuan Clan Head, whose activities had been so scarce that rumors even circulated about him having ascended to immortality like Wuji, appeared, dispelling all doubts. Three of the Eight Guard Units remaining in the Martial Alliance, along with Abbot Gwanghye Hwalbul Gakjeong of Shaolin, also descended from the mountain.
