< Episode 31: Giyeon (1) >
Mokgyeongun’s body which had fallen was breaking apart like the bark of a tree.
And in that shattering shell
-Sneaking!
New skin full of luster was emerging.
Cheongnyeong looking at this couldn’t hide his excitement and muttered.
-…Transformation of the bone.
Bone metamorphosis.
It literally means changing the bones and shedding the womb.
This is a phenomenon in which the body undergoes rapid changes corresponding to enlightenment and something truly strange has happened.
‘Something that is possible can only happen if you reach the level of the flower world.’
Originally Hwangol transformation was possible only by attaining enlightenment at the wall which is said to be the end of the state of transcendence and achieving the Three Flowers and Souls and the Ogijowon.
If you overcome the yangmaek yangmaek (任督兩脈) through these two realizations you will be able to handle energy that is incomparable to that at the peak and your body will be rapidly rebuilt to handle this.
‘under….’
But Mok Gyeong-un did not overcome the wall.
He simply absorbed the vital energy of the raccoon spirit beast that called itself the master of assassination.
But to handle that energy a complete transformation takes place.
‘It’s bizarre. ‘It’s bizarre.’
How can a body like this exist?
I haven’t even crossed the wall but my body is being rebuilt to handle that yogi.
I was on the verge of sticking my tongue out.
‘…It’s different.’
The sequence of this guy’s growth process was completely different from that of ordinary martial artists.
From the beginning he had built up morale (death energy) which could be called the energy of death rather than internal energy in his Danjeon and even controlled that with the luck technique of retrograde.
Perhaps it was natural for him to take a different route.
‘We may be watching the birth of a completely different type of martial arts expert than the martial artists we have seen so far.’
When this thought occurred to her a gasp escaped her mouth without her realizing it.
What would it have been like if she had been accepted as a disciple alive instead of dead? I also had this thought.
She is one she would have been a curly old lady if she had still been alive.
-Passssss!
All of her dead skin peeled off and Mok Kyung-yun stood up.
Skin powder falling off.
“ah….”
My whole body feels light.
As my body became full of energy I realized that I had surpassed my limit.
Just a moment ago it felt like my insides were on fire but there was no more pain.
Even all the broken bones had healed and there was no problem with movement.
‘I guess I was lucky.’
He was prepared that he might die this time.
However fortunately contrary to his determination an opportunity came to him and he became even stronger.
‘I became stronger…’
It’s really amazing.
A spirit beast that is said to have become weak after being sealed for thousands of years.
I just absorbed the power of such a spirit beast but my energy increased so much.
At this level it seemed like there wouldn’t be any problem for a master who reached his peak.
Mok Gyeong-un suddenly remembered what Bangsa Jo Eui-gong had said.
[I heard there was no one?]
[yes.]
[I don’t know who you heard it from but it’s not necessarily impossible.]
[It’s not impossible?]
[okay. I couldn’t believe it at first either. But it is real. Among the radiants who have received the title of god there are two who have subjugated spirit beasts and made them food spirits.]
[two?]
[okay. There are two. It’s amazing. Ah I’m just saying this just in case. They are out-of-this-world beings. In the first place one of them was different from a human… no. In any case the spirit went beyond what humans could handle. They are disaster itself.]
Joe Ui-gong said:
Among the six directions which are said to be the pinnacle of radiation two directions have spirit beasts as food gods.
When I think about this I feel like we still have a long way to go.
He had been sealed for a long time so he couldn’t even handle the weakened Spiritual Beast.
It’s a shame that the seal’s power still remained otherwise he would have died here.
‘That too but what on earth did he say?’
I remember what the monster raccoon the spirit beast said after coming out of his body.
[What on earth is that inside you?]
What do you think is inside me?
Mo Gyeong-un had a question.
Now that I think about it it seems that most of the vengeful spirits that attempted to possess them reacted with shock upon discovering something.
What on earth did even Yeongsu say like that?
I have doubts.
Then it happened.
-Rebirth….
Mo Kyung-un looked at Cheongryeong.
“ah?”
Mok Kyung-un frowned at her blurred appearance.
She had become more transparent than when she had grabbed her wrist and pulled her but it was becoming more and more transparent.
“Cheongryeong?”
-Hwangol… Metamorphosis… It’s really fun.
“yes?”
-This guy who has only been learning martial arts for a short time… enters the realm of transcendence… and rebuilds his body through a complete transformation…
“….”
-If the momentum is like this… I really… just like I said… I might reach Hwagyeong within 2 years… I don’t know… That’s right.
“Cheongryeong… Your spiritual energy has weakened a lot.”
-I tried to… save you… and ended up like this.
“….”
-I didn’t mean to hear you say thank you. You don’t have to… sympathize.
She was speaking her words with difficulty and was reciting them as if she were giving a will.
She was clearly visible to Mo Kyung-un’s eyes.
Her spiritual energy like a blazing flame was gradually becoming smaller like a dying candle.
I asked her as if I couldn’t understand her neck movements.
“I told you not to come in but why did you come in?”
-… If you… die… everyone will die anyway so what are you going to do?
The young man answers as if hesitating for a moment.
Seeing Cheongnyeong’s appearance like that Mok Gyeong-un stared at her face.
In response she said that Cheongryeong was a burden.
-What are you staring at so…? Are you really sad that the main throne is disappearing?
“Extinction… does it happen?”
-…okay. There is no longer any hope for this position.
The young man was aware to some extent.
Her spiritual energy had already weakened to the point where she could no longer maintain her own spiritual body.
She had a vast amount of spiritual energy that allowed her to remain as her vengeful spirit for 100 years but she lost most of it so how could she remain?
-Sentient beings… with your personality… you won’t be sad if one of your food spirits… dies… so please do me a favor.
“….”
-Nothing else… I have nothing to wish for… Just heaven and earth…
-widely!
It was before the young man had even finished speaking.
Mo Kyung-un held her hand.
And she said.
“We’ll talk about that once we recover.”
-what?
-Shoooooooo!
As soon as the question was over a majestic energy surged from Mok Gyeong-un’s hand.
It was a very different energy from her spiritual energy.
‘Yogi?’
It was like that.
It was the yogi that Mokgyeongun stole from the raccoon spirit beast.
It was Mok Gyeong-yun who absorbed enough yogi to rebuild her body and refine it with Danjeon’s morale.
As the energy surged in her eyes shook.
‘What is this?’
A strange thing happened.
Unlike the imaemangyangs who can swallow and eat even vengeful spirits vengeful spirits cannot accept or absorb their yogi which is close to higher entities.
However a yogi rushes in through Mok Gyeong-un’s palm.
And that yogi fills the whole body.
‘Aaaah!’
Her spirit body which had become transparent gradually became darker.
Then very quickly he returned to his usual self.
No it didn’t end here.
-Gooooooo!
-Rebirth… wait… you…
“Concentrate.”
The amount of yogi flowing into her exceeded the level of reiki she originally possessed.
‘This guy…’
In response she assumed her lotus position despite the presence of her spiritual body.
And just like she did when she was alive she focused on making the energies that came as if by luck her own.
-This can’t be right….
The green spirit Kyu So-ha’s eyes widened as he watched this from outside the red line.
It was clearly visible in Gyu So-ha’s eyes.
The spiritual energy of the young spirit was increasing at a rapid rate and its level was about to rise beyond its original limit.
And eventually it really came true.
-Shhhh!
A chilly energy spreads around Cheongnyeong.
-Kurrrrrrr!
As a result the bookshelves around the cavity shook violently.
As the status became higher the spiritual energy flowing from the spiritual body was having a great influence even on the real world.
Cheongryeong opened her closed eyes.
-Sureuk!
The intense blood-red eye glow gives the viewer an even more intimidating feeling.
-ah….
She let out an exclamation as if she felt that her own status had become higher than before.
Mok Gyeong-un said releasing her hand that was holding her.
“I’m not the only one who’s lucky.”
-…What did you do? It could have been dangerous.
“That’s good. At least rather than disappearing.”
-Anyway you…
She couldn’t stop talking.
She was prepared to disappear but her status as a vengeful spirit increased.
She couldn’t help but be very sophisticated.
Mok Gyeong-un spoke to the young spirit.
“If my eyes are not wrong it seems that the rank of Cheongnyeong has become higher. Should I call him Namryeong now?”
Namryeong (藍靈).
In the Book of Yin Yang Ga Bonseo (陰陽家本書) it is written:
A vengeful spirit that has existed for over 300 years.
It goes beyond auditory hallucinations and reaches a level where its spiritual power becomes materialized and it is a being as close to a disaster as a high-ranking imamangryang such as a demonic beast.
At least a hundred people are needed for the ordinance but it is unclear whether that will be possible.
‘Should this also be considered a coincidence?’
Mokgyeongun still has a connection between Cheongnyeong and Food God.
However for Mok Gyeong-un the fact that her rank had become so strong that it reached the level of Namryeong meant that her power had grown even further.
At that time Cheongnyeong opened her mouth.
-…That’s it. Just call me Cheongnyeong.
“yes?”
-If you keep saying this and that it will be confusing so just call it Cheongryeong.
Mok Gyeong-un twitched her lips and said looking at her turning her head and turning her head as she spoke bluntly.
“Is it because you like the title Cheongnyeong?”
-What nonsense are you talking about?
Cheongnyeong glanced at her neck and snorted.
In response she shrugged her shoulders as if to say “If it’s not for neck training it’s okay.”
While I was doing that I heard someone’s voice.
-Master…
There with her arms blown away the green spirit Kyusohah was seen half-transparent her eyes glaring.
Seeing Gyu So Ha like this Cheongryeong opened her eyes and sighed and said.
-…Is there anyone left?
* * *
“I will be waiting for you so please come pick me up.”
Mok Gyeong-un who was trying to pass through the camp at the entrance said to Mok Gyeong-un as if he were giving a divine advice.
As can be seen from the changed tone of voice Gyu So-ha was possessed in that body.
Because Danju Yang Mu-won had witnessed something he could not just leave it alone so he took this action.
However even though he verbally asked me to come pick him up Gyu Soha’s expression was quite smiley.
-I was very excited. I’m excited.
“Well that could be true.”
As expected Gyu Soo-ha who absorbed the remaining vital energy that her neck cultivator possessed surprisingly increased in rank from her green spirit to her blue spirit.
Originally it was close to Cheongryeong but the high purity of Yogi worked well in conflict.
Anyway Mok Gyeong-un who had entrusted this place to Gyu So-ha escaped from the camp set up at the entrance to the cave and went down the cliff.
There leaning against the cliff senior warrior Kwak Moon-ki was waiting with a bored look on his face.
Then
-Tuk-tuk!
When someone touches my back I get startled and try to take a stance by widening the distance.
“Huh? you?”
“Have you been waiting long?”
Mok Gyeong-un asks with a grin.
Seeing him like this Kwak Mun-gi’s expression hardened.
‘What the hell is this…’
Even though Mok Gyeong-un was qualified to be a preliminary master of sobriety his sense of energy was only top-notch at best so he thought he was a level below him.
But what’s going on?
‘…I don’t feel it.’
I could barely feel the energy of Mu Qingyun in front of me.
The presence and feeling are blurry.
It’s right in front of me. What on earth is this?
Could it be that you gained any insight from the report?
