Episode 311 Beukmyeong Shingong (2)
< Change in the family >
I learned what the sins of the Shingeombaek family were. Reveal the truth for the prosecutors and their families who died due to Baek Cheon-hwa’s greed.
Condition: Confess the sins committed by Shingeombaekga and receive an apology from those involved.
Reward: 5000 points.
A new quest appeared before Baek Woo-jin and Darkness.
“Confession of sin and apology….”
– It might be harder than you think, right?
Darkness chuckled after confirming the quest.
-It’s not just one or two.
According to what Baek Yeon-hwi and Baek Eun-kyung said, there are more than four organizations involved in this matter, and they are all very large guilds.
There is no way that the guilds that have already concluded a deal with Baek Chun-hwa will easily admit the past. It will be a nuisance in many ways.
I was worried that they would give me another quest that was as good as free, but this one was a bothersome quest in many ways.
“Probably not.”
Baek Woo-jin shook his head, accepting the quest.
-No? There’s no way these guys will just admit their sins.
“In general, it would be like that because their own secrets would be revealed. However, it will be different if I attack it myself.”
-You’re attacking directly?
The darkness raised its blade as if it were absurd.
-You go. If you move easily, the heaviness of the matriarch….
“Even taffy can’t change the heaviness of the matriarch.”
He smiled and waved his hand. There is no need for the weight of the family head, which is stuck only in the back like Baekcheonhwa. I am sitting here to become the head of the family who is always at the forefront.
-Heung Gaju, the way he talks.
The voice of darkness was harsh, but it contained satisfaction for Baek Woo-jin.
-So are you going to go to all four guilds that caused the problem?
“No, you only need to go with one.”
Baek Woo-jin raised his index finger and waved it.
“I don’t know about other places, but Lord Cheonmu will definitely reject my offer. “If it’s his personality, he’ll never admit it.”
-Well, definitely.
The darkness nodded its blade. Lord Cheonmu, whom I saw in China, was a man full of pride. There was no way he would admit it if there was no evidence.
“What would happen if we attacked the Cheonmu League directly and wiped it out?”
-…Others will be scared.
“that’s right. Lord Cheonmu is as strong as his pride. If you bring him to his knees, other guilds will automatically reveal their sins and apologize. “Not only what you did, but also what you didn’t do.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled and entered the practice room.
-There is one thing that holds me back. Will Lord Cheonmu admit his guilt by losing to you? You wouldn’t be the type of person to confess your sins just because you got beaten up, right?
“So we need to be prepared.”
-preparation?
“When Lord Cheonmu refuses to admit to the end the crimes they committed, we must present clear evidence created by gathering information from the Baekwondan Black Market of the Public Prosecutor’s Office.”
Since you have ledgers and documents, you can create complete evidence by preparing a few more materials.
“We can win both by force and by cause.”
-You are going to give it to me after a beating without providing evidence in advance that Baek Cheon-hwa and Lord Cheon-mu made a deal?
“yes.”
-Huh….
Darkness looked at Baek Woo-jin and stuck out his tongue.
-I can already see it.
I began to imagine Lord Cheonmu, who had been hiding the truth even after being beaten by Baek Woo-jin, with his despairing expression upon seeing the evidence.
It is a scary thought to hide evidence that could be presented right away and then present it after destroying it all.
– A humble guy…
This is possible because he has both heart and strength.
If this plan goes as planned, the world will know how much Baek Woo-jin cares for the Baek family.
In other words, no one will touch the Baek family’s swordsman from now on.
“I should try being a bit more abusive too.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled slyly. I planned to act like family to the Baek Family prosecutors and like evil spirits to those who mess with the Baek Family.
-Why does it start with Lord Cheonmu?
“He’s the guy who tried to take my life.”
-I still do that….
“I have a good memory.”
I laughed and contacted Baek Yeon-hwi and Baek Eun-kyung. The two were instructed to pretend that there was no evidence at all and only ask for an apology.
“The moment to use the Northern Myeong Art will come sooner than I think.”
A cool smile appeared on Baek Woo-jin’s face as he hung up the phone.
**
“Whoa….”
Baek Woo-jin finished signing the last document of the day and looked out the window. A round moon rose in the heavy night sky. Before we knew it, the sun had set and night had come.
Although Baek Chun-hwa was unable to practice much for several weeks because he was concentrating on the work of the head of the family, his expression was calm.
“Thank you for your effort.”
Moon Joo-young lowered her head as if she was sorry.
“What’s wrong with your expression?”
“Are you okay since you haven’t been able to practice these days…”
The entire Baek family knows that Baek Woo-jin is a training fanatic. I couldn’t help but worry about someone who would get thorns in his mouth even if he didn’t practice for just one day, and he was only working for weeks.
“are you okay.”
Baek Woo-jin waved his hand and told him not to worry.
“Just give it a week or so and most of the work will be taken care of.”
“I said it’s okay. Never mind…”
“Until then, I will help you as much as I can! Rest!”
Moon Joo-young nodded his head loudly and left Gajujeon. Looking at him, it was clear that he would stay up all night and only do important work.
“It’s really okay.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled and stopped the operation of Yang-ui-cheong-gong.
‘Because there is a sheep’s heart ball.’
Yanguisimgong is a rare martial art that can do two things at the same time.
Interpreting the nine points of the Beukmyeong Shingong while working using the Yangyi Heart Gong was like eating rice cake while lying down.
-It would be nice if I got sick after eating that rice cake.
The darkness under the desk crept up.
“Did you see it well?”
-I was okay with it.
Darkness waved his sword blade in embarrassment.
-It wasn’t that funny and
“I said it wasn’t honest anyway.”
Baek Woo-jin clicked his tongue and placed the tablet PC that had been lying on the floor on the desk.
To avoid being bored in the dark while working, I placed a tablet PC under the desk and played a drama.
The guy forced his voice to be grumpy, as if he didn’t want people to know that he was in a good mood because he was immersed in a drama he hadn’t seen in a long time.
-So, are you getting used to the job?
“Don’t pretend to be interested. “My head is full of drama…”
– Hmm…
Darkness couldn’t find anything to say in response and just cleared his throat.
“But the Northern Myeong Shinkong.”
-hmm?
“I don’t think absorbing natural mana or enemy energy is everything.”
The more I memorize the nine verses of the Northern Myeong Shinkong and accept its contents, the more I feel it. It didn’t seem like a simple martial art that could take in more energy.
Much higher than that.
It seemed to contain the secret of super ascension regarding the absorption and flow of energy.
-You already knew?
“It looks like there’s something there.”
Baek Woo-jin looked into darkness with his eyes shining.
-Tell me what you felt.
“Beijing Shinkong is not a martial art that simply absorbs a lot of energy. It gives you enlightenment about mana…”
I told Heukam about the realizations I felt while learning the Northern Myeong Art.
-It’s really fucking fast.
Darkness sighed. Although Baek Woo-jin deliberately did not reveal the true meaning of the Northern Myeong Art, Baek Woo-jin found the path alone.
‘It’s fast and unpredictable.’
His progress in martial arts was gradually exceeding his expectations.
Baek Woo-jin meant that he was surpassing his own predictions and was approaching perfection, that is, transcendence.
‘I’m really sick of it.’
How long has it been since we reached absolute heights that we can already see what happens next? The mood heightened by the drama subsided.
‘what do you think about it?’
-…That’s exactly what you said. Bukmyeong Shingong contains the enlightenment to advance to a new level by accepting the mana and refined energy of Mother Nature.
‘Then that is…’
-It is the state of transcendence.
‘transcendence!’
Baek Woo-jin clenched his fists. I couldn’t hide my excitement when I heard that I could reach transcendence even without learning the lower volume.
“no. not there yet.”
I closed my eyes, forcing my racing heart to calm down. Don’t get excited already. It was still a long way off.
‘Relax and take your time…’
Baek Woo-jin controlled his breathing and gently suppressed his impatience. I slowly fell into a world of imagery.
-What a monster.
Darkness looked fed up at Baek Woo-jin, who calmly controlled his emotions even after hearing about the state of transcendence.
-He’s really big now…
**
A week later.
Baek Woo-jin entered the exercise room to focus on training.
All the work that had been delayed was completed and the drama was shown to Heukam, so there was no one to interfere.
‘Today is important.’
Because I never gave up training even while working, my mastery of the Beukmyeong Divine Technique was on track. If you complete this exercise neatly, you will be able to obtain the secrets of Beomyeong Shingong.
Ugh.
Baek Woo-jin closed his eyes and memorized the nine lines of Bukmyeong Shingong.
The mana of Mother Nature filled with heaven and earth feels so close that it almost touches your skin.
Mother Nature’s mana has fluidity.
It changes not only into the four major attributes of fire, water, and wind, but also into brain energy, cold, or light and darkness.
Warriors and wizards refine and use mana in their own way through aurors and mana exercises.
But Beukmyeong Shingong is different.
Mother Nature’s mana is accepted without any change.
Mana is not the only thing that does not change. The self that accepts mana must also be unchanging.
Like a heavy rock, like the lofty sky, like the endless sea, it stays where it is without changing.
That was the essence and trick of the Northern Myeong Shingong commercial district.
Flashing.
A huge wave rose in my mind. Old and faded images were shattered, and a new stream of enlightenment gushes out.
Ugh!
Baek Woo-jin did not miss the moment of enlightenment that he barely caught. I hung on like a mad dog until the end.
Concentrating all my mind on enlightenment, I memorized the nine lines of the Beukmyeong Shingong over and over again.
-Huh….
Darkness let out a sigh. Baek Woo-jin’s top battle was opened and Mother Nature’s mana was condensing.
Without even knowing what state he was in, he concentrated his mind on the training of the Northern Myeong Art and eventually fell into a state of no-self.
-You have already achieved enlightenment?
How long has it been since you acquired the martial arts of super-ascension, does that mean you have already achieved enlightenment? When I looked at that guy, I felt uncomfortable, as if I was pretending.
-Isn’t it already….
Baek Woo-jin has been training in Beomyeong Shin-gong using Yang-ui-sikong while working. Perhaps that persistent effort paid off.
-Ugh!
Darkness sighed with envy and waited for Baek Woo-jin to wake up from his trance.
When the waiting became boring and the drama became exhausting, Baek Woo-jin’s body began to tremble.
After a while he opened his eyes.
The magnificent eye light that seemed to contain the sun burned like a flame.
-Uhm….
Darkness groaned. Just by looking at Baek Woo-jin’s eyes, you could see that he had made great progress.
-Did you get it?
“okay. That too…” As
Baek Woo-jin let out his dry voice, a warning sound rang in the training room.
Ding!
[You have acquired the Northern Myeong Divine Technique.]
[The depth of enlightenment is deep.]
[The Northern Myeong Divine Technique has reached level 2.]
[The five-star ability has increased.]
“You have risen to level 2.”
-Hey!
The darkness let out a strange sound as if it couldn’t believe it.
-Step 2? From the beginning?
What kind of bastard is there to go from mastery to level 2 and reach enlightenment without even having learned something and achieved enlightenment?
I haven’t reached transcendence yet, but if I grow like this, I might be able to reach transcendence before a few years have passed.
-The city system is really….
“The system was still this time?”
Baek Woo-jin shrugged his shoulders. Acquiring the Northern Myeong Art was something he did solely through his own efforts. It had nothing to do with the system.
-If it weren’t for the system, there wouldn’t have been any positive mind training, and then you’d be training while you’re at work….
“Wow, are you going that far? “It’s dark and disgusting.”
-Ugh! What a scumbag!
The darkness trembled with its blade. To be honest, I had nothing to say, but I couldn’t stay still.
-Uuuuuu….
“I’ll show you a drama.”
Just as Heukam was about to explode in frustration, Baek Woo-jin stood up.
-Huh?
“Are you annoyed because you’ve been watching dramas on your tablet? “Let’s watch it on a large TV.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled and tapped the darkness.
-Are you serious?
“Now that I have achieved a bigger goal, I must grant your wish this time. There’s only half of the Forest of Secrets left and a wise prosecutor’s life left. Let’s watch it all on TV.”
-You remembered!
Darkness looked at Baek Woo-jin with moved eyes. Unlike the guy who was always grumpy, he knew which drama he wanted to watch.
“let’s go. “I’ll play it right away.”
-Joe is good! Caught up on all the dramas today! Hahaha!
“Smile softly because it hurts your ears.”
Baek Woo-jin and Heuk-am left the training room with smiles and stopped.
“Matriarch.”
Moon Ju-young, who was waiting in front of the training room, approached me.
“What’s going on?”
“The guilds sent us a reply.”
Baek Woo-jin took the document handed out by Moon Ju-young and opened it.
“All four guilds that asked us to confess our sins rejected our offer. In particular, Chen Wu-Meng was completely ignored.”
“Right.”
He crumpled the document he had read and smiled coldly.
“As expected.”
“yes. “It is just as the matriarch said.”
“Then we’ll have to stick to the plan.”
“When and where will you go first?”
“tomorrow. “Cheon Mu-maeng.”
Baek Woo-jin clenched his fists. There was no need to waste time, and I also wanted to use the Beukmyeong Divine Technique I had managed to acquire in practice.
“Then I will prepare the portal.”
“And a few more things…”
Baek Woo-jin gave instructions to Moon Ju-young as he headed toward the office instead of the dormitory.
-….
Darkness stared blankly at the backs of the two people being beaten to death.
-What about a large TV? What about drama?
**
In Shandong Province, China, a grand manor called the Forbidden City of Shandong was built.
The red and yellow dragons ascended to the main gate of the manor, which rose like a mountain, and in front of the gate, gatekeepers like iron tower giants exuded heavy majesty.
This place, which could be called an ancient royal castle, was the land of Cheonmu-maeng, the pride of China.
Numerous tourists stopped in front of the main gate of Cheonmu Maeng and clicked the shutters towards the huge panoramic view.
“Is this Cheonmu-meng?”
While Wang Jeon, a gatekeeper and member of the security guard, was enjoying the baptism of the shutter with a proud expression, he heard the voice of an unknown man next to him.
“Huh!”
“What the hell!”
“Get back!”
Not only the king hall, but everyone standing in front of the main gate was frightened and pointed their spears at the man.
‘When on earth…’
I couldn’t even feel it, but I couldn’t understand how I got to this point.
“uh? “Huh?”
Wang Jeon, who saw the man as he raised his window, gritted his teeth and took a step back.
“Bae Bae….”
From the black coat to the white scabbard and to the beautiful face that looked like it was drawn from a painting, it was impossible to not recognize the most famous man in the world.
“Bae Baek Woo-jin!”
“Cooperation!”
A heavy silence fell over the entire front gate at the high and gigantic name Baek Woo-jin.
“Ugh!”
“Ugh…”
The gatekeepers were sweating coldly and their hands holding the windows were shaking.
“What are you doing here…” Hwa Yeon
-hu, the leader of the security guard, opened her mouth with a cracked voice.
“I came to see Lord Cheonmu.”
“Are you here with an appointment?”
“No way.”
Baek Woo-jin shrugged his shoulders.
“Then you can’t go in.”
Hwayeonhu shook her head resolutely and gripped the window tightly.
“I like that kind of confidence, but I can’t do it today.”
Baek Woo-jin walked towards the front door with light steps.
Quaaaaa!
It didn’t seem like he had lost any energy, but the gatekeepers blocking his way slid away and the tightly closed front door opened wide with a cooing sound.
“I need to receive an apology from Lord Cheonmu.”
