<Episode 83: Demonic Beast (4)>
“Kiriririk! Damn you radiation bastard! “Why can’t I come back right now?”
-bang! Kwakwakwakkwak!
As Mokgyeongun broke through the wall and disappeared beyond it Alyu the demonic beast who was completely angry began to cause a fuss by repeatedly hitting the floor with his hooves.
As the floor broke and Gilgil ran wild the restraints on his four legs which were part of the legal system tightened on their own trying to calm Alyu down.
Usually when it goes on a rampage like this the anti-demon monks memorize anti-demon mantras to subdue the demonic beast Al-yu’s yoseong and put it to sleep.
However unfortunately the problem ended up being caused by the fact that Hangmagakju had the Hangmage monks leave the room for a while to prevent them from hearing Mokgyeongun recite the magic technique.
-Wood!
A situation occurred in which the restraint which could not overcome the power of the rampaging demon beast R.U. suddenly broke.
When the restraints on the front legs were broken Demon Beast Alyu could not hide his joy.
“Kirik! Kirik! “The damn thing has finally been cut off.”
Since the front legs were cut off cutting off the back legs was no problem.
In the end the restraints on the hind legs broke after a few kicks.
-Ujikkeun!
As soon as the restraints that were restraining his four legs disappeared the demon beast Alyu rushed towards the iron gate to get out of the cave.
-Quaaaang!
The iron door had a gold-lacquered anti-ma mantra engraved on it but Alyu’s power was so strong that with just one hit the iron door collapsed outward.
Because of this Hangmagakju who was waiting for Mo Gyeongyun outside was able to recognize that something had gone wrong.
“Deoksu you go to the next door immediately and call all the anti-horse riders.”
“Oh I understand!”
As Anti-Demon Monk Deok-su ran Anti-demon Gakju raised his magical power and began to cast anti-demon mantras toward the iron gate.
“Om Somani Somani Hum Arihanna Arihanna Hum Arihanna Banaya Hum Banaya Hum Baavam Baara Hum Batak.”

Same time.
Master Daedeok of Gyeyulwon headed to the entrance of Shaolin Temple accompanied by monks from Gyeyulwon.
The site of Shaolin which boasts the largest scale among all the temples in the central plains is so large that it was bound to take quite a while just to get there.
In addition because Shaolin is located halfway up Songsan Mountain the distance between sites was long.
So if you walk it is a distance from Nahan-gak to I-gak but thanks to performing Gyeongsinjutsu at an appropriate speed Daedeok Daesa arrived at the entrance inside Ban-gak.
At the entrance to Shaolin armed military officers wearing armor and about a hundred soldiers were seen.
Ambassador Daedeok bowed his hands and greeted the long-bearded general who appeared to be a representative of the military officers.
“Amitabha Buddha. It is called Daedeok the preceptor of Shaolin. “How did the imperial officials come to such a squalid place?”
“I guess he must be a high-ranking person in Shaolin.”
The young monks of Gyeyulwon who were putting their hands together frowned at the arrogant military officer’s tone.
Although the imperial family of Tangjin followed the Confucian doctrine Shaolin was a very old temple and deserved to be treated well because it had served as a state priest for generations thanks to its relationship with the first emperor Taejo.
However this military officer’s attitude was not like that at all.
“The main building is called Ganghak the city of demonstrations. “Because there is a connection with His Majesty King Taejo in Shaolin we did not forcefully enter Shaolin out of respect but we have received information that there are high treason criminals here in Shaolin.”
“Amitabha Buddha. “What do you mean high treason?”
Hearing Ambassador Daedeok’s words Kang Hak the commander of the city council snorted and said.
“It’s no use playing around. Do you know how many people in the vicinity have already heard information that a large monster has landed in Shaolin?”
“Huh. The imperial military officer is really causing trouble for Binseung. “This is simply a place where monks who have become monks practice Buddhism.”
“Just a place to practice Buddhism? under! “In a place called the king of martial arts in the world such words often come up.”
“Amitabha Buddha.”
Master Daedeok simply put his hands together and recited the Buddhist prayer.
Then Kang Hak the deputy leader of the demonstration frowned and raised his voice and spoke.
“Are you sure that Shaolin is trying to protect the high treason criminals who escaped from the underground prison of the imperial palace? “If that’s the case no matter how close the temple is to His Majesty King Taejo we have no choice but to forcibly enter the temple and search it.”
At those words the young monks of Gyeryulwon all protested.
“no. “What kind of misdeeds is that?”
“Forcible suppression! “No matter how much of a government official he is how can he serve Buddha?”
“stop!”
However Master Daedeok of Wonju who commanded them scolded them and silenced them.
Then he bowed his head with his palms together as if he had no complaints at all with Ganghak the Vice President of Demonstration and spoke in a soft voice.
“Amitabha Buddha. Even though Shaolin is a place to cultivate Buddhism how can it protect high treason criminals? “I hope the military officer will stop misunderstanding.”
“misunderstanding? If so bring the high treasonous criminals here immediately. If we do that there will be no forced search of Shaolin.”
“Amitabha Buddha.”
In response to the words of the protest leader’s lecture Master Daedeok of Gyeyulwonju recited the Buddhist prayer as if he was in trouble.
However contrary to this expression there was no real intention at all.
Rather I was grateful that my wish had come true.

-Rebirth? Rebirth?
Cheongnyeong called out to Mok Gyeong-un whose eyes were blank as he stared at the wall.
I wondered if something was wrong but when I realized that Mok Gyeong-un’s eyes were fixed on the stone wall of Myeonbyeok-dong I stopped calling.
‘Could it be that I fell into a mental state in that brief moment?’
Now this phenomenon was similar to when I was in a mental state.
However I did not open my ghost eyes and concentrate deeply on the nine patterns but for the second time after the tombstone I fell into a mental state without any omens.
Seeing this Cheongryeong found it strange.
Although his concentration was stronger than when he was alive it was an unusual phenomenon for him to come to enlightenment one after another like this.
Even if this is Shaolin the birthplace of King Jeongjong’s martial arts.
‘no way…’
It was right then.
Five-colored lights were coming from the top of Mo Kyung-un’s head whose eyes were closed.
‘Aaaah!’
At this Cheongnyeong could not hide his excitement.
* * *
‘Hold on with the arm that isn’t there…..’
Actions that were originally supposed to be impossible actually became possible.
In fact since the water was flowing down it should be approached with the concept of supporting rather than holding but he was even holding on to it.
All of this was as if nothingness had become something through will.
A strong will made all of this possible.
‘will….’
As a result Mok Gyeong-un gained a great enlightenment that was different from before.
The many reasons contained in that simple movement turned over in my head and they gradually became organized one by one.
The same was true for my understanding of energy which I had only vaguely felt until now.
The flag wasn’t far away after all.
Everything that existed was energy and energy was ultimately everything that existed.
‘Is it something like this?’
Now I feel like I clearly know what energy is.
It was truly a strange thing.
Just by watching this process everything that had been blocked was cleared up.
‘Is he a true gin?’
-Sleep!
Then I saw the monk who was looking at the stone wall with his eyes wide open lowering the hem of the robe he was wearing on his head.
They had dark skin and furry beards that were quite different from those of the Central Plains people.
The moment he saw this something passed through Mok Kyung-un’s mind.
‘no way?’
Mok Gyeong-un who was curious about this tried to get closer to see the face.
Then the person who wrote the lyrics opened his mouth.
[If you have had enough now go back to where you belong.]
‘!?’
For a moment Mok Gyeong-un stopped.
He was convinced that all these scenes happening now were happening in his mind.
However the monk looking at the stone wall was speaking as if he was aware of himself.
Mok Gyeong-un who found this strange approached him to see his face.
-Srurr!
The cave which had been covered in snow soon returned to its original state.
Mok Gyeong-un frowned at the quiet cave and the floor filled with stagnant water as if nothing had happened.
How does this come to be?
He had experienced many mental images but none had been as vivid and immersive as this one.
Moreover those words at the end are still unforgettable.
‘…I was just looking into it.’
Why do those last words sound like they were said to himself and not to the monk who cut off his arm?
It’s even somewhat confusing.
Then Mok Gyeong-un heard Cheongnyeong’s voice in his ears.
-Rebirth!
Mok Kyung-un responded with some confusion in her excited voice.
“Why are you doing that?”
-….Let me ask you straight. Did you break down the wall that blocked you?
She had already witnessed with her own eyes that while Mu Qingyun was in a mental state five-colored light rose from the top of his head and enveloped his entire body.
So he was already sure of this.
In response to her question Mok Gyeong-un shrugged his shoulders and opened his mouth to answer.
“The wall that the spirit speaks of…..”
-Kurrrrrrr!
At that moment the entire cave shook the ceiling cracked and fragments fell.
At this Mok Gyeong-un turned his head from the stone wall of the head wall and looked toward the cave hole he had slipped down from.
There were violent roars and screams.
* * *
“Om Somani Somani Hum Arihanna Arihanna Hum…”
-Wood!
One of the anti-demonic monks who was reciting anti-demonic mantras and swinging the Vajra ball was bitten by the demonic beast Al-U with his upper body intact.
As they were munching on the torn-off upper body one of the anti-horse monks couldn’t help but get angry at the sight lost his temper and rushed at him.
“Dukmyeouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
-Kwasik!
However the anti-horse riding horse was soon trampled by hooves and its form became unrecognizable.
As five horseback riders lost their lives in an instant the eyes of the remaining horseback riders suddenly became filled with fear and fear.
The demon beast Alyu must have felt this and roared with a voice full of joy.
“Kiririririririririk!”
To Lee Mae-mang-ryang human negative emotions such as fear and fear were no different from nutrients.
Consuming a human being in that state was truly the ultimate delicacy.
‘Kiririk! It’s the best. more! ‘Be more afraid!’
Masu Alyu was determined to pay back everything he had suffered during his 99 days in captivity.
Of course he had no intention of fighting all of Shaolin.
My goal was to get out of Shaolin by killing these damn anti-horse monks and venting my anger.
‘What’s unfortunate is that I couldn’t kill him.’
If the guy under the protection of that monster fox had been left to die here it would have been an interesting scene of the bitch fighting these bullies but it’s very unfortunate.
So in order to assuage some of this regret I will have to kill these bastards very cruelly and then get out of here.
At that time something aimed at the red eyes of the demonic beast Alyu.
Al Yu immediately lowered his head.
-Paaaaang!
What flew in was none other than a Geumgangjeo filled with magical power.
The person who threw away the Geumgangjeo was none other than Hangmagakju.
Just by looking at his body soaked in blood it was clear that his injuries were quite serious.
“Ha… ha… everyone come to your senses. “We must hold that monster here until help arrives!”
Hearing his cries some of the anti-horse monks gritted their teeth and tightened their grip on the Vajra.
At this sight Demon Beast Alyu burst out laughing.
The leader seemed to be the leader as he was trying his best to revive the morale of the dying man.
‘Old Hani if we just kill you these idiots won’t be able to do anything anymore!’
-bang!
Soon the demon beast Alyu kicked off the floor and rushed towards the injured Hangmagakju.
Some of the anti-horse monks who were surprised by this all threw their diamond swords at him.
-Papa papapang!
However there was no way that he could stop the demonic beast Alyu who could not be easily suppressed even when more than a hundred anti-demon monks attacked him just by firing five diamond swords at him.
Accordingly Hangmagakju directly raised his legal power and tried to deal with the guy.
“Om somani somani hum ari….cough.”
Hangma Gakju who was reciting the Hangma mantra soon vomited out a handful of blood.
For a moment a sense of emptiness appeared in Hangmagakju’s eyes.
He lived most of his life as a Buddhist monk but it was truly strange that his life ended in death at the hands of a monster.
Is this all ultimately karma?
As he watched the demonic beast Alyu gradually getting closer Hangmagakju immediately closed his eyes.
It may seem vain but what if this is death?
He chanted the Buddha in his heart.
‘Amita…..’
-Quaaaang!
At that very moment a huge roar echoed in his ears and Hangmagakju frowned and opened his eyes.
‘!!!!!!!’
An amazing scene unfolded in his eyes.
The head of the Demon Beast Alyu was crushed to the point where it broke halfway through the floor and someone was standing above the head with a raised eyebrow.
“dole?”
He was none other than Mok Gyeong-un.
