Hyeonjilmusin - Chapter 115

115. Yang-ui (3)
I had quite a bit of money in my possession at the moment. The six hundred nyang that Yeo Bul-jin had given me as an advance payment was nothing. The money I earned from selling the treasures I had bet with the salt merchants was over ten thousand nyang.
There were more conscientious merchants than I thought, so they hung up their treasures without any hesitation. By the way, I didn’t rip them off. Namgung Hwi dragged them in to expand his business, and I was the one who got what I paid for.
So the merchants couldn’t say anything while giving me their treasures, because Namgung Hwi was watching them with his eyes wide open.
“Hoo hoo hoo.”
Money is like a child who acts cute. Just looking at it makes you smile.
Of course, spending money is much more important than saving it. And I was trying to spend that money.
[ Sacrum (Heavenly Bone) – 5th Grade ]
[ Price: Two thousand five hundred nyang of silver ]
[Talent in Martial Arts (Intermediate) – Grade 5]
[ Price: 3,500 nyang of silver ]
[Sword Talent (Intermediate) – Grade 5]
[ Price: Three thousand nyang of silver ]
“Prices are crazy.”
No store would put up a few thousand nyang worth of silver on the counter and sell it. Usually, when it was that big, it was either an auction or a private transaction.
“Because it’s ridiculous.”
Well, since this is the only place that sells this talent, I can understand why he’s acting so shameless.
“Those damn bastards.”
I’ve heard this a lot in my past life, but I never thought I’d say it with my own mouth.
It’s been a while since I’ve spent this much money, so I had to hold my chin and think about it for a while. But thinking about it didn’t really change anything. I had to learn martial arts and change my body according to the martial arts, so it was time to completely improve everything.
Those three talents combined were worth nine thousand nyang. How much was that? Even if I were the target, it would be trembling to pay that much money all at once.
The most I’ve ever spent on talent was the 5th grade, Unbreakable, from the Mujae store. It cost two thousand nyang. Even then, I thought why it was so expensive, but at least it was a nobleman.
I bought it with tears in my eyes. I felt the heavy sac in my arms become lighter. I raised my head because I felt like crying.
“shit.”
I shook my head hard once. When I look back on the words I spat out and the money I spent, I feel regretful.
I’m going to use the talent I’ve acquired to the fullest extent. I’m slowly reviewing the martial arts I’ve learned.
While unfolding the Cheongunbo in conjunction with the Yuunshin method, the Samjae sword, the Ohang sword, and the Yuun sword method are unfolded in succession. The Guyusura sword was omitted because it did not match the soft Yuunshin method.
I unfolded everything and then took the sword.
“It’s worth the money.”
I stuck out my tongue.
Silver Nyang. It’s expensive, but it’s okay because I’ll earn it anyway. I can accept this level of performance. As expected, the store is expensive, but it never disappoints my expectations.
It became possible to use magic and spirit energy together, and the overall level of body movements and martial arts also increased.
I always feel this way every time I buy talent, but it was amazing to see paths that I had not seen before, and to be able to step on steps that I had not been able to take. After all, I had completely changed my five senses about swordsmanship, martial arts, and martial arts. Those three combined had a synergistic effect of more than three times.
“good.”
Of course, it wasn’t good. The store literally took all my money. Now, I wonder if I have a hundred nyang in my pocket. My once full heart feels empty. After all, the heart’s granary can only be filled with money.
The reason I said it was okay was because I wanted to fool myself in that way. It was an ignorant and shallow method, but the human mind and body are more vulnerable to this kind of hypnosis than you might think.
“Phew.”
There was one last thing I had to test. It was none other than the Guyusura Sword. I gathered the mixed energy into the Songmun Sword. By the way, the mixed energy is a name I gave to the mixture of spiritual energy and demonic energy.
The spirit of the spirit was inside the sword. The Songmun Sword of the Shamanist faction was filled with a magical energy. Just that alone made me feel a sense of guilt, but I ignored it.
I unfurled the Guyusura Sword again. This time, from the rise of Asura to the second form of the nine-legged race, Guyusjaerae (九幽再來).
Since I haven’t met the Guyusura Sword for long, I’ll unfold it as slowly as possible. First, I need time to get in touch with the martial arts.
At first, he leaves a trail of shadows with his asura-chulse, then turns around with his Guyujaerae and sweeps in front of him. Now is the time when people are sleeping, so he does it as quietly and slowly as possible. Since he has changed all his talents, the condensation of energy that was not possible before made it possible.
Phew.
And as the ground shifted in front of me and dust began to float upward, I knew something was wrong.
Kookwakwakwakwang!
“……uh.”
This is not right.
There was a loud noise as the trees fell in the waves. Immediately, torches were lit starting from the Samcheong-gwan building, which was a non-partisan building.
“What! What’s going on!”
“It looks like an attack!”
I could faintly hear people shouting in the distance. And I could sense a group of people coming closer to me. I covered my face with my hands.
“haha.”
It’s ruined.
* * *
“sorry.”
“You really don’t have a quiet day.”
“I have nothing to say.”
“What kind of martial arts were you testing that caused such a mess?”
I saw Cheonghwa’s eyes grow wide behind me. She shook her head so that people wouldn’t see her, but she wasn’t the kind of person I would call a great person anyway.
“I was just wandering around the world and I happened to come across some good martial arts, so I decided to give it a try.”
“That’s an overly tyrannical martial art. You can tell by the traces. If I were your master, I wouldn’t have taught you. It’s a martial art that seems to fit you, but… … .”
Cheongyi clicked his tongue. This must be the difference between Cheonghwa and Cheongyi.
Then Cheong-ui asked suddenly.
“Did you pick up some unknown secret method from the martial arts world?”
“yes?”
“The fallen trees and the overturned ground are full of traces of your inner energy. But I don’t know the source of that inner energy. If you’re Taoist, you’re Taoist. If you’re not Taoist, you’re not Bulgar. If you’re an Apostle, you’re an Apostle.”
Cheongyi was puzzled. I calmed my heart inwardly. Fortunately, the magic concealment seemed to be working well.
“That too.”
“Where do you find such unique martial arts skills?”
“Is that a compliment?”
“Is that a compliment?”
Cheongyi sighed.
“Since you are a lay disciple, you are free to learn any martial arts, but since you are not just a lay disciple, you should have discussed it with your master, Cheonghwa. I don’t know, but Cheonghwa must be upset.”
That was the martial arts that Cheonghwa had given me. But I couldn’t say that. I bowed while looking at Cheonghwa.
“I’m sorry, Master.”
“Oh, no.”
Cheonghwa coughed. That gentleman didn’t seem to be good at acting. Well, it would be strange if Taoist priests were good at acting.
“Anyway, I apologize to the elders and the elders. I caused a commotion in the middle of the night.”
“No. If this is your first time condensing your internal energy, then that might be possible.”
“Oh, can you see that too?”
“The only way to spread the ripples this much is to condense and spread them out. Another achievement. Congratulations.”
However, looking at the expressions of the elders and the Qing, it seemed that they were surprised that I had condensed my internal energy rather than being upset that their sleep was disturbed.
“……thank you.”
“You don’t even realize how great a job you’ve done.”
“yes?”
“Condensing internal energy is not an easy task. It is something that only the great disciples are learning these days. To have realized it on your own is an incredible talent.”
Behind me, Cheonghwa nodded with a proud expression. Now, no one doubted my talent.
“Now, look. If you can condense your internal energy, you can do this kind of skill.”
Cheongyi took out his sword and called upon his inner energy. Blue energy rippled across his sword strike, then formed into a sphere. The sphere gradually grew in size.
And when the internal energy accumulated to the size of a man’s fist, it was shot up into the sky.
pop!
The sphere flew into the sky, dyeing the night sky with a splendid blue energy.
“……ah.”
It was a sight so beautiful that it was admirable.
Fireworks require a lot of money to be displayed. That’s why even merchants don’t display fireworks unless it’s a special day.
However, the martial artists who had reached the realm could do this as well. They were indeed people from another world.
“What you just saw was a sword ring.”
“That was the sword ring.”
“Yes. Sword Ring and Sword Gang are the study of internal energy. You may not be able to use sword ring like that yet, but you have already entered the beginning stage. It is a great thing.”
Cheong-ui tapped me on the shoulder. I thought I would be cursed for knocking down trees and turning the ground upside down, but I was unexpectedly praised. As expected, I was good at being talented.
“Anyway, don’t rest on your laurels and work even harder. Even though you already are.”
“All right.”
Cheong-ui turned around and left first, and the elders also came to me and congratulated me one by one before leaving. Even Cheong-yu.
“It would have been great if you had been a disciple of the main temple. Tsk.”
But he still expressed regret like that.
And as soon as everyone left, Cheonghwa put her hand on her chest and sighed deeply.
“I was really shocked.”
“That’s why.”
“Have you decided to kick me out of the party?”
“No way.”
“It’s buried because of the condensation of internal energy, but if we had dug into it in detail, wouldn’t the vicious martial arts skills have been completely exposed?”
“I will be careful.”
“You really can’t let your guard down.”
Cheonghwa tapped my forehead with her finger. It felt like a tap, but it was really a great skill that it hurt.
“My head is pounding.”
“That’s because I put my inner strength into it.”
“Are you attacking my brain?”
“It probably reached the skull, but not the brain.”
“It’s so dangerous. What are you going to do if I die?”
I burst out laughing. Cheonghwa looked at me and shook her head.
“What’s so good about it?”
But since I kept laughing, Cheonghwa couldn’t help but laugh along. Laughter is contagious after all.
All the days of resting comfortably at the shaman’s house passed like that. Even though I rested, it was all martial arts training, but being in a safe place and talking to comfortable people was a rest in itself.
That break ended today, because today was the day I left for Gansu.
“So, are you two getting to know each other better?”
Before leaving, I checked the assignment I had given to my two companions.
“……joy.”
“no.”
Yeo Hongyang snorted, and Myeongil answered plainly. But at the same time, the two turned their heads in opposite directions. Should we say that they are on good terms?
No, that can’t be. In fact, it felt worse than when I put it on.
Well, I knew this would happen. But when I actually encountered it, my mouth felt bitter.
“Because there is plenty of time.”
I forced myself to laugh. But unlike Cheonghwa, no one was infected by that laugh. Only my empty laugh lingered in front of the signboard of the Mudangpa Party.
The journey to Gansu started off with a rocky start.
