Jang-i-seo opened his mouth softly at the end of the drum.

“I thought I could endure it because it was a regular thing.”

“Did you really think that since there was a hole in it, birds would come out?”

“yes.”

And that thought was half right.

The brain energy that came in entered the danjeon and quickly spread throughout the body, filling every nook and cranny without fail.

The problem was that even after filling everything up, there was still a lot of Dokma’s brain energy left to absorb.

So Jang-seo was flustered and tried to expel it from his body somehow.

But right then.

‘Something inside me started to devour my brain.’

Thump, thump, thump.

Jang Yi-seo’s gaze turned to my chest.

Yes, that’s right.

The brain energy that filled his body was sucked into his heart. It was faster than the speed at which it was accumulating, and he was devoured in an instant like a hungry predator.

It was the first time in his life that he had experienced something like this. Hundreds of years of energy seeping into his heart, not his danjeon.

I don’t know why, but at that moment, I thought that I had met fate and saved my life.

But this was the beginning of a new crisis.

‘Thump, thump, thump.’

Not only did the heart swallow the poisonous energy, it also tried to suck out all the energy in the body, including the original energy.

Jang Yi-seo was literally on the verge of death.

But at that very moment, as if by fate, the words he had spoken flashed through my mind.

‘Feel smart. I will only be able to pass this on to you once.’

God of ten thousand horses.

The supreme being of the Cheonmasin religion.

That’s when I realized.

The culprit who took over Dokma’s power is none other than.

‘This is a heavenly demon.’

That Cheonma Jinwookwang was the devil who planted himself in my heart.

It was a moment of realization and death at the same time.

‘Kwaaah!’

Boom! The poison horse screamed and shot out a blast of energy, sending Jang Yi-seo flying into the corner.

The tremendous shock caused my blood to stop flowing and I vomited blood.

Thanks to that, my racing heart calmed down.

Jang I-seo saved Dok-ma’s life, and in return, Dok-ma saved Jang I-seo’s life.

It’s a match made in heaven.

“Even if you were a regular citizen, it wouldn’t have been easy. Tell me quickly. How on earth did you survive?”

Dokma’s repeated questions broke his thoughts and the corners of his mouth rose with a smirk.

“I guess we were destined to be together.”

“tie?”

“yes.”

Ma-ui and Dok-ma looked truly dumbfounded. Jang-seo had nothing more to say.

Because I don’t know anything other than that the devil ate it.

All I can feel right now is that my heart is full of a very ominous aura, like a volcano about to explode.

“Well, anyway, it’s good to be alive. I’m glad you’re safe. First, get some rest. Once you’ve recovered, I’ll teach you the magic of immortal poison.”

Jang Yi-seo and Ma-ui’s eyes widened.

The Immortal Poisonous Horse Festival, the season of the poisonous horse!

It’s finally time to get used to it.

“Thank you, Sasauk.”

Jang-i took the lottery ticket, and Ma-ui glanced at him seriously.

Jang Il-seo said that Dokma was a natural gem.

I was filled with anticipation and curiosity about what kind of grandeur he would show.

And it was only a few days later that I was able to confirm this.

Jang Yi-seo and Dok-ma came to live in the place where Ma-ui was staying.

As we started off on a foundation of deep trust, our relationship quickly grew closer.

“Eat.”

“Yes, private tutor.”

We talked a lot. Most of the stories were about the people of Chilsogung. However, perhaps because he was originally cold and blunt, he didn’t show much interest in other people’s business.

There were also a few things I learned about him.

“If you ever get bored, just tell me. Let’s abandon this damn school and travel the world together. Hehe.”

“S, Master!”

Perhaps it’s because he’s been locked up for decades, or perhaps it’s because he’s a sworn brother to the previous generation’s killer, but his loyalty to the Demonic Cult isn’t all that deep.

and.

“But if you want to make the Seven Princes the minor cult leaders… … wouldn’t it be better to eliminate all the other successors?”

“Master, please… … .”

His temperament is truly extremely rough.

Well, if you think about it, it was only natural.

The only child, the only general.

He was a weirdo who looked down on everyone and made fun of them.

Anyway, we didn’t just spend time together to become friends.

The real one was different.

“Get ready.”

“yes.”

Across the table, Dokma spoke softly.

It was a time of training for the Immortal Poison Magic.

The method was simple.

Eating raw food prepared by the devil at the devil’s command.

The box on the table was full of unknown things, starting with roots. There were even large bugs.

It’s something that most people wouldn’t even want to get involved in.

“Ahem, don’t push yourself and eat slowly. If you’re in a hurry… … .”

“yes.”

Before the demon’s worries could even end, Jang-seo grabbed one of the roots and, without hesitation, chewed it and spoke.

“It’s a bit bitter.”

The magician asked, startled by the indifferent comment.

“That’s all you can write?”

He responded with a smile and immediately picked up the flower buds. Ma-ui opened his eyes wide in shock. He didn’t know that he would eat them right away without even swallowing the root.

“This one is a bit more bitter.”

He sucked on the flower petals and frowned. Then the demon doctor added his remark.

“Huh… … This crazy guy.”

It was a natural reaction. In fact, it wasn’t just bitter, it was so bad that my tongue felt numb and it felt like a knife was being cut into my throat.

It can’t be helped.

In fact, all of the things placed here were lethal poisons.

‘The body must first become aware of the poison.’

The conditions for learning the Immortal Poison Magic were neither memorizing the nine rules nor using the mind method.

Just as the brain was created with the brain gun to receive the brain energy.

Letting the body accept the poison first.

So, the beginning of the poison study was to be able to naturally embrace poison without recognizing it as a dangerous factor.

“I ate it all.”

And Jang Yi-seo’s talent was beyond Ma-ui’s imagination.

“You already ate it all? How could you eat that much poison at once… … .”

I stuck my tongue out. It was natural. The reason why it was originally the most difficult to learn the poison technique was because you had to feel and accept the energy of the poison until you were about to die.

So, when you first have no immunity, it is standard to start with a very small amount.

One of them swept up a dozen or so poisons in one go. Then he calmly asked.

“But if you eat this much, how long does it usually take to die?”

“He already died a while ago.”

“I knew it.”

Pick. Jang-seo raises the corners of his mouth. Beads of sweat form on his forehead, and his face turns pale.

Starting with a stomachache, the pain intensified and I became confused. Normally, I should have died coughing up blood.

He didn’t want to eat in such a hurry either. But he didn’t have time.

The showdown with Maga was imminent. I had to get back somehow before that.

And as Dokma said before, Jang Yi-seo had outstanding qualities in this area.

Woohoo!

First of all, the Cheonmagi goes crazy and runs wild as if it is going to destroy anything that comes in.

“after…….”

With a deep sigh, all the poison disappears.

“What did you feel?”

And the second is the crazy excellent five senses.

“The first root I ate went down my esophagus and dissolved like foam, and soon I felt as if my intestines were being scraped by stones. After that, I felt dizzy, but my sense of smell became more acute. And the second flower bud I ate… … .”

“… … !”

Ma-ui was dizzy at Jang-seo’s continuous answers.

I had heard about his qualities from Dokma before, but seeing it with my own eyes felt different.

He swallowed fifteen poisons in one sitting, detoxified them in less than an hour, and remembered all the symptoms at the same time.

‘He was truly born to be a dictator.’

It took Ma-ui six months to learn those fifteen poisons, and Gwang-ui one month. But Jang-seo finished them in just ten minutes.

It is a crazy quality that transcends time like the midday sun and we can only acknowledge it and bow our heads.

In this way, Jang-seo created a body that could accept the Immortal Poison Magic faster than anyone else.

And then one day, after about ten days had passed… … .

Finally, everything is ready.

* * *

Gulp gulp gulp-

The sound of the rushing torrent fills your ears with coolness beneath the wide wooden railing placed on the cliffside.

Ahead, a tall rock peak stands out in the middle of the rapids, the summit of which can only be seen if you raise your head halfway.

This was a very special place in Doksan Pavilion.

The funerals of the lords of the past were held, and they were all cremated on top of that peak and their remains were floated down the rapids.

And the inauguration of the new monarch also took place here.

The name given to it is Yunhwejeong (輪廻亭).

That it is passed on to someone without fail and lives forever.

The reason the doctors gathered here today was similar.

Although it wasn’t the inauguration of a new president, it was a more sublime day.

Two people sit facing each other on top of a mountain, cross-legged.

It was the moment when the previous Dokma passed on his own magic, the Immortal Dokma Gong, to his successor after decades of absence.

I’m talking to Jang Il-seo, the assistant of the Seven Princes.

“I never thought it would be passed down like this.”

Jang Seo-ri, sitting on the peak, glanced sideways at the doctors gathered on the railing below and spoke.

“Hehe, what are you talking about?”

Then, the Dokma on the other side laughs and responds. Perhaps because he has eaten well for the past ten days, he has gained a bit more weight than before and looks much better.

But what is it? You call that speech.

“I already knew that Doksan-gak was special… … But I didn’t know that he would do it in front of everyone like this. Isn’t it usually the norm to do this by hiding in a cave?”

It’s nothing more than teaching the Dokmun martial arts, and you’re doing it in front of everyone.

This is something that the whole neighborhood is talking about, continuing the progress of Dokma.

“Hehe, even if you see it, it’s not like you can learn it. And even if you have a mouth, there’s no one who can talk carelessly.”

“I didn’t know you had such deep faith in doctors.”

“It’s not them, it’s me. No one would dare open their mouth unless they want to melt to the bone.”

“Are you stupid?”

The two of them snicker. It seems like they have become much closer. Jang-seo shows his original bluntness, while Dok-ma is full of mischievous playfulness.

“Are you ready?”

The devil is too enthusiastic to just give up and say it can’t be done.

As Jang Yi-seo nodded to the side, Ma-ui was holding both hands up and reciting a prayer as if performing a ritual in front of the doctors.

It’s a random story, but there is no place with such deep faith as this place where the life and death of the sick are intertwined. People pray when they wake up, pray while eating, and pray before going to bed.

The intention is good. The target is the problem.

“Oh, Supreme Heavenly Demons! We beg you earnestly!! Oh, Supreme Heavenly Demons, please look down on us! Oh, Supreme Heavenly Demons… … .”

Rather, recite a curse. Jang Yi-seo closed his ears and looked straight at the poisonous demon.

And said.

“Let’s get started.”
