Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Episode 26

“Thank you so much.”

“no. Rather, I am grateful. By the way, is this really okay? In this case, it’s as if the recluse stole the credit from the great association.”

“it’s okay. “I want that to happen.”

“I had no idea that he was such a lustless person. “You are willing to give up fame and fortune.”

“I have enough money. “My reputation… If it gets any higher, I’ll be in trouble.”

“Seeing you show such detachment, I feel embarrassed that I was blinded by my reputation and tracked down Mine alone without informing my brothers.”

“Then I’ll just leave.”

“The goods and supplies acquired in the process of suppressing the remnants will be delivered to the victims and their bereaved families as you said. “I promise you this under my name.”

“please.”

Dokgo Woo-jin, who left the gate of the Cheongseong faction after giving his power in a moderate manner, let out a short sigh.

The demonic forces that were operating secretly in Sacheon were rooted out and the cleanup was completed to some extent.

There was no need to step forward and do anything anymore.

However, there was still one more problem that complicated his feelings.

‘I was pushed by the momentum and agreed…’

Yeonsun.

A benefactor who saved the life of his son Dok Go-seong.

He kept mentioning his benevolence and begged to teach him the White Lightning God Art, but his will was so firm that there was no way to stop him.

‘Finally, this day has come.’

Even though the condition was to give me just one chance, I didn’t feel comfortable.

Because the martial arts skill that it would not be strange to lose one’s life in that one attack was Baekroe Shingong.

I was planning to help Ungi myself and then immediately stop him if I felt it wasn’t working, but even so, I couldn’t help but feel anxious.

‘If something goes wrong with Yeon-Woon’s life… my wife won’t leave me alone.’

After safely recovering her kidnapped son, Seo Moon-hye treated Yeon-woon almost like her son.

She poured so much care into her care that even Yeon-woon, who had such a shameless personality, felt burdened.

What if Yeonsun suffers serious internal injuries in the process of teaching the White Thunder Divine Technique?

‘I don’t even want to imagine.’

Dokgo Woojin sighed again, reached into his arms, touched something, and muttered.

‘But if even just in the unlikely event that he shows potential…’

He bit his lip slightly and shook his head.

He knew better than anyone else that it was a useless wish.

‘What are you thinking?’

Laughs flowed out.

I was confident that I would have expectations when the situation actually came to the subject where I had hoped that the spirit of the recluse would be cut off.

‘I hope the worst situation doesn’t happen.’

* * *

The training room in the Hwangryongmugwan.

After entering the sealed underground space with Dokgo Woojin, I immediately sat cross-legged in the center of the room.

I had no intention of wasting time needlessly.

If you show hesitation, you will have to hear ‘Why don’t you think again?’

All the rules had been taught, and now all that remained was to put them into practice through practice.

I closed my eyes and focused my consciousness inward.

Dokgo Woo-jin, who sat silently behind me, placed his hand on my Myeongmunhyeol (命門穴).

The energy that emanated from the dantian ran like a gale through the bloodstream of the body.

When he lived and practiced in the Manjang family, all the fine veins of his body were opened, so his internal energy movements were unhindered.

After completing the Small Zhou Heaven (小周天) once, I began to use my inner skills in earnest according to the nine rules of Baekrei Shingong.

‘It’s a fun martial arts skill.’

The number and type of acupoints used to purify energy were very different from the general Naegongsim method.

The operation method was also completely different.

‘I heard it’s a mind method aimed at specializing internal energy.’

At first glance, it may seem like an inefficient operation, but this inefficiency was the foundational element of Baekrei Shingong.

Energy that constantly circulates through the bloodstream following the path suggested by Dokgo Woojin.

At some point, the energy began to condense and take on a heavy character.

As I felt the change in my body, I naturally became cautious.

‘indeed. If you deviate even slightly from the path, you will end up with internal injuries.’

I thought I understood why it was impossible to learn the White Thunder Divine Technique unless you were in the middle of nowhere.

If the concentrated energy escapes the operating path and runs wild, you will most likely fall into a fire-entry demon.

This is what we are talking about when it comes to training that risks one’s life.

‘Controlling energy itself is not that difficult. Although the nature of the inner energy is heavy, it is not as violent and harsh as the energy accumulated through the Heavenly Demon Heart Energy.’

If you were to ask me whether I fully understood the structure of the White Lightning God Art, no, I did not.

It was difficult because it was different from the usual way of thinking, and more than anything, it had a lot of content that was difficult to get a feel for until you experienced it for yourself.

But now there was Dokgo Woojin behind my back.

All I had to do was follow the path he suggested.

I was so tactful that I couldn’t even eat what was spoon-fed to me.

‘The problem is that not a single mistake is tolerated…’

I slowly curled the corners of my mouth.

If you include the memories of your past life, the number of years of martial arts training was twenty-seven years.

The time for making the beginner’s mistake of relaxing during fortune-telling is long past.

‘Even if it is the first time you encounter the method of ascending, the fundamentals are ultimately the same.’

Tips for using your inner strength as intended?

I learned it to the point where I was sick of it.

In my heyday, I was at the edge of the world of peace and had even surpassed the realm of absolute perfection.

I could confidently say that I had mastered the principles of martial arts to some degree, even if not completely.

‘I can handle it well enough.’

I forgot time and myself.

I fell into a state of no-self and savored the salvation of the White Lightning Divine Art.

How much time has passed like that?

“Whoa…” … .”

The internal energy that had been replaced with energy of a completely different nature was stored in the Danjeon and the Ungong was completed.

When I glanced back, I saw Dokgo Woojin looking at me with an expression of complete disbelief.

I said, crossing my arms arrogantly.

“I told you that if you just watch it once, you’ll understand.”

“…….”

“How is it.”

“That’s amazing.”

“I am sometimes surprised by my own talent.”

“I don’t think it’s at a level that can be simply described as talent… Have you really never learned any other inner gongsim techniques than the three trials technique?”

“You should know because you saw it yourself.”

“Almost all the blood vessels except the Imdokmaek (任督脈) were pierced, so where did you even get the Beolmo Sesu (伐毛洗髓)?”

“Being from Goa, I have never received such great support.”

Although I made the elixir myself and consumed it.

For reference, the reason I haven’t been able to defeat Im Dok-maek yet is simply because my total amount of internal energy is insufficient.

It was by no means a lack of state or enlightenment.

“her… … .”

“I think this is a sufficient condition to become the contemporary successor to Tenreimun.”

“It is too early to say anything. “You’ve only completed one lucky feat.”

“Of course.”

I nodded obediently.

As Dokgo Woojin said, he had only completed one stroke of luck.

Until the foundation was laid, the White Lightning God Attack would have to be used countless times in the future.

The risky training, where a single mistake could cost you your life, will continue for years.

“But you probably knew roughly. “I have the ability to completely master the White Thunder Godkong.”

“Inattentiveness tends to lead to anger.”

“I’m not being conceited. “I’m just stating objective facts.”

“It’s called pride.”

“I didn’t know you had a hobby of spinning stories.”

“…There is no change in my thought that I must end the lineage of Cheonreimun in my generation.”

“Now that things have come to this, let’s be flexible and cut it off right away. If you wish, I will not take any disciples.”

“Can you have me as your teacher?”

“Didn’t you say from the beginning that you wanted to be a disciple?”

A heavy silence followed.

Dokgo Woojin, who had been glaring at us for a while, slowly nodded.

After realizing the meaning, I immediately stood up and bowed.

“I will call you Master from now on.”

“okay.”

“Anyway, I didn’t say it because I thought it would break the mood…”

“…?”

“My body was cut in half. How on earth did this happen?”

“It’s natural. “As the density of internal energy has been increased, the total amount is bound to decrease.”

“Didn’t I tell you before? “I think the balance of the mind and body will soon collapse.”

“To be honest, I never thought I would really accept you as my disciple. “I was planning to make you give up, but…”

A laugh escaped me.

The strength I had worked so hard to accumulate over the past five years had been shrunk to a halt.

The internal strength that was already lacking became even more lacking.

Ten years of experience.

This is why I can’t even raise my head anywhere.

“I think I need to increase the time I invest in deliberation.”

“That alone will be difficult. “The White Thunder Divine Gong’s efficiency in accumulating internal energy is lower than that of other mental techniques.”

“yes?”

“Didn’t I tell you this before? “Baekrei Shin Gong is a mind method that aims at specializing internal energy rather than accumulating efficient internal energy.”

My open mouth could not be closed.

It’s sad that my inner strength has been cut in half, but the newly learned mind method is less efficient than other mind methods.

Even if something was wrong, it felt like something was definitely wrong.

“There is no need to be discouraged. “The reason why the efficiency of accumulating internal strength is low is only in the early stages of entry.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“The inner energy accumulated through Baekrei Shingong has the property of attracting the surrounding energy. Therefore, as the total amount of internal energy increases, the accumulation efficiency also increases. “If we compare it to the rate of interest in the field of battle, the general internal engineering method is calculated as simple interest, and in the case of Baekrei new action, it is calculated as compound interest.”

“So, based on what I am now, roughly what is the efficiency of accumulating internal strength of the White Thunder Godkong?”

“Is it similar to or slightly worse than the three-trial trial method?”

“…Then, how much skill must be accumulated before it can be used effectively?”

“If you have approximately one level of inner strength, you will be able to demonstrate efficiency equivalent to the mental techniques of the Nine Great Schools or the Five Great Families.”

I screamed in my heart.

It’s not even the name of someone’s dog.

How long does it take to build up that level of skill?

I had the urge to slam my fist into the teacher’s philtrum.

Until he took out a small wooden box from his pocket and placed it in front of me.

“What is this?”

“Summoning group (小還丹).”

“Summon team? Are you talking about that summoning group called the Shaolin Temple’s arcane elixir?”

“okay.”

“Is it stolen goods?”

“What kind of nonsense are you talking about? “This is something I received from Master Youngun when I was young.”

Ambassador Yeongun.

It was a name I had heard of before.

There was no way I didn’t know.

Because he was the Taesangbangjang (太常方丈) of Shaolin Temple and an absolute expert who held the second rank.

‘What on earth was this guy doing around when he was young?’

I was able to remind myself that the man in front of me was a strange man who erased his past and went into seclusion.

I couldn’t even guess what kind of achievement I had to accomplish to receive a summons from the Buddha as a gift.

‘If you look at it that way, among the contents of the letter delivered from Haomun, there was content that seemed to hint at the point of contact between Dokgo Woojin and the Tang family.’

Maybe Dokgo Woojin has a much broader network than I think.

In the first place, isn’t erasing the past and settling down in Sacheon with a new identity something that an individual can do?

“Why are you giving this to me?”

“Of course they’re giving it to you to eat, right?”

“…!”

I carefully accepted the wooden box Dokgo Woojin handed me and held it in my hand.

Respect and affection for my teacher quickly welled up.

“Thank you, Master. “I will never forget this grace.”

“You speak well. “Just a moment ago, you were glaring at me with eyes that looked like you were going to eat me.”

“Are you saying I said that? You’re joking.”
