#third eye

– Seonyeong Paegeommun.

The front door opened and a man came in.

If you think about the original, it is a face that cannot be defeated by anyone, but the deep scars on the bridge of the nose and eyebrows hide this.

His name is Man-kwang.

He was the son of the head of the Demonic Cult’s Cheonghae branch and the rumored master of the Paegeommun.

He was known for his temper, and it ran in his family.

If a foreign force appeared in Cheonghae, he would have to chase after and destroy both father and son to feel satisfied.

I’ve been doing that for so long that rumors have spread, so I’ve been quiet lately…

“I’ll have to find out whether it’s a miracle or a curse and burn it. It keeps crawling in! It’s going to be so intense.”

These days, that’s a thing of the past. With so many people flocking to Cheonghae, every day was a battle.

“There was a black market and a sect!”

“Phew… … .”

And the war continued within.

A man with a goatee came running up to me with brisk steps and started nagging me.

“Your Majesty, haven’t I told you many times that I should not be at odds with the Apostolic Church?”

“General Heo. You were the ones who started the fight, and I was the one who got hit, so why are you yelling at me?”

“Does it matter who did it! How many times have I said that the situation is not good right now… .”

“Ah, that. The situation is like this, and we’re going to have to bow down to those black bastards! It’s so embarrassing.”

Man-kwang frowns. General Heo appealed in an even more angry tone.

“Do you know why they spared the Master’s life? Long live the Demon Sword of the Supreme Being! It is because of the Master that he is alive.”

“What is that? Anyway, I survived. What’s the problem?!”

Yeah, no problem.

“Didn’t Your Majesty collapse from a poisonous seizure?”

If only the branch manager hadn’t fallen ill.

“Even the so-called miraculous lawmakers were unable to find the cause. They said they were trying to crack down on the situation, but it’s like a powder keg that could explode at any moment.”

A sharp remark that is almost like a murderous blow.

“The three who commanded Cheonghae together with the Lord Moon have already turned their backs. Don’t you know? They only bow their heads to those who can defeat them.”

“Do you think this is how it’ll end for your father? He’s funny. He’ll just jump up and leave as if nothing happened. You know his temper.”

“This time is different. It’s been over a hundred days already.”

Man-kwang let out a breath of anger at the curse-like assertion.

But I had nothing to say in response.

Now, Manseok was awake for less than three hours a day, and even then, he was panting and suffering.

It wouldn’t be strange if today were a critical day.

“F*ck… … Then what do I do! Am I going to just watch these worthless brats act like they own my house? Do you think your father would like that?”

“Please come to your senses! Now is the time to bow your head in repentance!”

“So why are you repenting when you didn’t do anything wrong?”

“Your Majesty the Rumor-!”

“Just wait and see. Cheonsan will never abandon us. He will take care of the current situation. Have General Heo say hello to my father instead. I’ll go.”

Man-kwang goes outside again. At this, General Heo lets out a long sigh and mutters softly.

“Do you still believe in heaven? How foolish of you… … Like father, like son.”

Did I mishear? No matter how angry you are, it’s hard to say those words considering the relationship.

Another surprising thing was the conversation with the subordinate who approached him later.

“… … What should I do?”

“What can I do? If things continue like this, the Paegeommun will be finished. Even the brave doctors couldn’t cure the Lord Moon.”

A murderous glint flashed in General Heo’s eyes.

“It is the attitude of loyalty to send him off with honor even now.”

“… … !”

“Come to Heuksabang. I have a proposal for you.”

The smell of rebellion began to spread ominously through Paegeummun, the head of the Cheonghae branch.

Director Heo was now convinced that it was time for the Paekgeommun to undergo a change.

And that is… … .

‘This is going really well.’

The same was true for Myo Chae-kyung, the head of the Biryong Party, who was hiding on the roof and eavesdropping.

* * *

– Hello, Seonyeong Cheonghae Guesthouse.

A day has passed since we arrived in Cheonghae.

Jang-seo was lost in thought, breathing in the morning air.

The biggest concern was the fundamental problem.

‘Can I stop the blood cult?’

This is the biggest challenge of this mission.

Even though I’ve already left, being sure that I’ll win is not confidence, it’s recklessness.

Their power was much greater than I thought. If even the ghost of the spearman, Jeok-A-Rin, appeared right away, it would be very difficult.

A peerless master who is not much different from the Three Princesses and Sa Hae-ryeong in terms of level.

Of course, now that I have mastered the Namcheonneungga-gyeong and blocked the third hole, I won’t be defeated as easily as before.

But that didn’t change the ending.

‘I can’t beat her at my current level unless I borrow the power of the Blood Demon.’

It is only natural that no matter what you do, you will never be able to reach the climax.

In the end, you had to have at least one reverse card to avoid the worst case scenario.

Two methods vaguely come to mind.

One is to take the spirit tablet of the eternal snow ginseng given by Sasuk and seal the fourth heavenly realm.

‘No way. If you do it without any method, there is a high chance that you will be eaten by the Heavenly Demon and disappear.’

The head immediately shook. Then, the second option remained.

That was dealing with the blood demons.

‘The blood demon is another self of yours, your inner self. You can only deal with it when you face it directly.’

Cheonma clearly said so.

And Jang-seo was able to understand the meaning a little.

‘Because I’ve already experienced it twice.’

The inner world was filled with darkness.

I had definitely encountered the Blood Demon in it, and I had been touched by all of his emotions.

Thirst and greed. Murder and lust.

It all felt strange, as if I was feeling it myself.

And it was not an illusion, but a real entity that clearly existed.

Jang-seo thought the answer was in there.

‘But how do I get back in?’

Sure, I could have faced the Blood Demon when I was mentally weak, but that didn’t seem to be the right way.

‘You must approach him not as a weakling, but as an equal authority.’

If that’s the case, then you have to knock on the door with your own will and with a clear mind.

‘Let’s think about it slowly.’

What does it mean to see? Is it the view that is contained when you open your eyes? That is also true.

However, Jang reduced this to the concept of transmission.

‘The two eyes are ultimately tools that convey reality to the brain.’

Therefore, the reality does not disappear just because it is not visible, and the reality does not change just because it appears differently depending on the location or viewpoint.

In the end, vision is the difference between how much the brain perceives in the split second when looking at reality.

In other words, if you maximize your perception the moment you look at something, you may be able to feel things you have never seen before.

But there was a problem here.

‘There are areas that can never be captured with the tools of our two eyes. The inner self is one of them.’

So, to see the inner self, we had to not only increase our cognitive abilities, but also change our tools.

It’s not the eyes, it’s the energy.

It is said that we must look at it through the lens of emotion.

‘Each color has its own unique color. The more noble it is, the more delicate it is, and it conveys numerous sensations.’

And Jang Yi-seo has the energy that can be called the strongest among them.

The energy of a thousand demons.

So, it was definitely Cheonmagi that led me to the inner world.

“after…….”

I let out my stilled breath and emptied my mind.

The theory is over. What remains is practice.

Open all your senses, and ping! The energy of the Heavenly Horse is released in a circular motion.

Woohoo!

The Cheonmagi that flows out in waves around Jang Yi-seo becomes his two eyes and transmits numerous senses.

Floating air. The wind that carries it. Temperature that changes from time to time. The mixed energy of nature.

It’s not about forcing something. It’s about accepting the reality.

Jang did not settle for feeling this, but tried to see it.

I didn’t try to force myself to imagine that it wouldn’t work.

I just tried again as if nothing had happened.

Again. Again. Again, again.

I repeated this countless times, entering a state of selflessness. And by the time I had forgotten how much time had passed.

Whew Whew Whew!

I began to feel an unknown power along with a dark blue aura between my eyebrows.

‘This is… …! The Southern Heavenly Realm?!’

Yes, it was. It was definitely the Namcheonneunggagyeong.

It is the power of the heavenly palace that has never been manifested before!

‘I knew it had something to do with the eyes, but I never thought that the power of the Heavenly Palace meant the mind’s eye.’

The surprise was short-lived. Little by little, things that had been invisible began to become visible.

Finally, my third eye opened.

‘So this is what it looked like… … !’

The first thing I noticed was the wind.

It felt like watching fish swimming and playing in the large waves. It was truly complex, mysterious, and beautiful.

It soon disappeared, but it was an unforgettable pleasure.

From then on, Jang-i-seo gradually became accustomed to it.

The wind, the air, the temperature, even the subtle flow of nature. It took such a long time to adapt.

And then I opened my eyes again.

“after…….”

The dazzling sunlight that had greeted me when I first began my meditation had disappeared.

Before we knew it, it had become a pitch-black night.

But the moment Jang Seo causes a wave of Cheonmagi.

ping!

The darkness cleared from my eyes, and countless things I had not seen before began to appear.

I focused my gaze on the double-flowing wind, and before I knew it, it had slowed down and expanded, and at the same time, it felt as if time had stopped.

‘Does the real time and my time flow differently?’

As of now, that’s the only way I can think of it.

This was similar to the Manan of Guyu.

The difference is that Manan throws a lot of information through the eyes, while Jang I-seo’s Sim-an reinterprets the information received through the five senses and energy in the head.

hook!

As the Heavenly Horse was put back, the world became dark again as if the lights had gone out. Time also flowed as usual.

“What the heck is this… … .”

Even though I spread it out myself, I was honestly dumbfounded.

I just wanted to see the Blood Demon, but I ended up gaining amazing powers.

In fact, this was something that even Cheonma had not expected.

To be able to see the invisible realm is something that can only be done by ascending to the highest level of enlightenment.

For example, the shadow of the bamboo forest seen by Dokma or the dance of the Chilsogung seen by Usaga.

So what Cheonma said was merely a response to facing one’s inner self.

But now, Jang has awakened to the power of the Heavenly Palace and gained a completely new third eye.

“Is it possible to do this with immortal poison?”

For a moment, my heart fluttered with anticipation.

Namcheonneungga-gyeong is a deep exercise that strengthens vital energy and allows one to overcome the limitations of the physical body.

Wouldn’t the world be different if it were viewed through the eyes of the Immortal Poisonous Demon Lord, rather than the Heavenly Demon Lord?

ping!

Jang Yi-seo created a stir with the immortal poison without hesitation.

But there was only darkness. Nothing else could be seen.

Was it a vain hope? But it was at that very moment.

“hmm?!”
