<Episode 81 Joining (1)>
Heumwon (欽原).
It is one of the monster beasts of Kunlun Mountain that has the upper body of a giant bird and the lower body of a wasp.
Like most imaemangyangs the strength of the monsters weakened during the day but the speed at which they flew was nothing compared to a running horse.
They tried to chase Heumwon as it soared high but in the end the chase team could only watch its back as it gradually disappeared.
“Damn…”
“How can you chase after that?”
In the first place catching it flying into the sky was close to impossible.
They were devastated and eventually had to turn back.
-Flutter flutter!
“I don’t think I can keep up.”
Mok Gyeong-un who was watching the pursuit team moving away with his excellent visual acuity smiled and said.
Hearing Mok Gyeong-un’s words Seop-chun stuck out his tongue and asked.
“My lord. “When did you tame such a strange thing?”
“ah. This one? “I was lucky enough to have the opportunity.”
“You mean raw fish?”
Nie Chun and Meng Wuyak’s eyes widened at Mo Qingyun’s answer.
They are from Cheonjihoe and have lived there for a long time but this is the first time they have seen anything like this.
Then So Ye-rin the Sixth Heavenly Tiger took off the black mask she was wearing and opened her mouth.
“Master Mok you are really skilled in magic. “It’s amazing how even these monsters have been tamed.”
“It’s just luck.”
“Is there anyone who can tame something like this just by luck? Anyway Confucius…..ah.”
As she spoke she flinched and held on to her cart.
As Heumwon increased altitude and turned slightly to the side he lost his balance.
Her eyes wavered as she looked down.
She didn’t seem to be afraid of anything but surprisingly she seemed afraid of looking down from the high sky.
In response Mara Hyeon the masked member of the Golden Guard asked with worried eyes.
“Yukcheonho. “Are you okay?”
“are you okay! “It’s okay.”
Even before Mara Hyun finished speaking So Ye-rin hurriedly shook her head and denied it.
Judging by the fact that her face was slightly flushed it seemed like she was embarrassed for looking down and looking scared.
Mara Hyeon turned her head as if she had read the eunsa’s thoughts.
Then she looked at the remaining container containing the Seonghwa spirit liquor.
Mara-hyeon’s eyes became strange as she looked at this.
That said
– Sweet!
Mok Gyeong-un opened the lid of the leftover container.
When the lid was opened the Holy Spirit of Seonghwa who had to guess the situation outside just by sound asked Mok Gyeong-un with a puzzled expression.
“What happened?”
“As you can see we succeeded in escaping.”
“You succeeded?”
“yes.”
“Ahhhh!”
Her face lit up at these words.
Even though it seemed like something was going on urgently I was curious about what happened.
However she was very emotional when she heard that she had succeeded in escaping.
In response the woman who was crouched down with only her head sticking out of the leftover food tried to raise her body.
Her neck tiller spoke to her like that.
“I would advise you to just stay still.”
“Didn’t you say you escaped? “I was inside earlier but strangely my ears were ringing and my speed was pounding which made me feel uncomfortable but here…!?”
At that moment Seonghwaryeongju’s expression hardened.
Looking up she couldn’t hide her embarrassment as she saw the back of Hemwon and her huge claws clutching her cart.
“What is this?”
“It’s not a big deal I guess I should say I’m in a bit of a high place right now.”
“height?”
“Yes. So are you comfortable back inside?”
“….Ah I understand.”
“Would you like me to close the lid?”
Seonghwa Ryeongju who was feeling sick to her stomach at those words soon nodded her head.
It made her more upset to keep looking at this so she thought it would be better to not look at anything in the leftover container.
Mok Gyeong-un who smiled and closed the lid turned his gaze to her.
Mara Hyun who made eye contact with Mok Gyeong-un immediately avoided her gaze as if embarrassed.
-Did you feel it too?
Mok Gyeong-un shrugged her shoulders at the words of Cheongryeong next to her.
Of course she couldn’t help but feel it.
She was sensitive to other things but as far as life was concerned no matter how much she tried to capture she could capture it like a ghost.
I realized right away that the faint sense of life that I felt from Marahyeon was directed towards the Holy Spirit of Seonghwa.
I don’t know why but it seemed like there was something emotional about it.
-I don’t think it should be put separately.
-I see.
-Anyway you’re really amazing for thinking of using Heumwon a magical beast in this way.
-Should we call it an impromptu response?
-Thanks to that improvisation you managed to escape the imperial palace. At the very least you really need to know the courage of your sentient beings who are now even using the golden haired nine-tailed fox.
Mok Gyeong-un chuckled at her words as she stuck out her tongue.
Up to Heumwon it was a secret plan prepared for the worst case but it could be said that the Geummogumiho was lucky.
It’s a shame that the golden-haired nine-tailed fox helped her with his unique whim otherwise she could have been captured by Baek Gu a Namjin warrior known as the One of the Six Thousand.
-closely!
Neck Cultivation clenched the fist of her trembling left hand.
Although it did not have the super regenerative power of the six-blooded Dambaekha who drank the blood of spirit creatures its recovery was fast so strength gradually gained strength in its hands.
Seeing this Mo Kyung-un let out a light breath.
After absorbing the tremendous magical power of the golden-haired nine-tailed fox I gained some enlightenment and the wall called Six Heavens which is said to be the pinnacle of martial arts was truly huge.
‘There’s still a long way to go.’
Those who killed my grandfather were most likely one large group.
In order to dig them out it was necessary to have similar forces or overwhelming force but Mok Gyeong-un decided that this fight was still insufficient.
But he wasn’t going to be disappointed.
Through this fight I learned the extent of Yukcheon’s inaction and I learned and realized many things through it.
‘There are endless ways to manipulate energy.’
I watched carefully how the person who had completely overcome the wall used his energy.
As a result I vaguely realized his operating method.
It seemed like if he utilized this he would be able to handle energy more effectively than he does now.
-Sigh!
As Mo Gyeong-un moved his fingers slightly the sword of the evil sword in its scabbard trembled faintly.
At this the corner of Neck Jingyun’s mouth rose.
It was then.
-Rebirth.
-….
-rebirth
-yes?
-You…but are you going to leave that idiot behind?
-!?
The man that Cheongryeong was talking about was none other than Jaejeong Jeong an apostate monk of Shaolin.
As things went awry he was so busy mobilizing his resources that he had forgotten about it.
Originally the overall plan was to go out of the outer palace with a cart of leftover food and then use a carriage prepared by Jaejeongjeong to get out of Gaebong.
However when he unintentionally escaped to Heumwon he ended up leaving Jaejeongjeong behind.
-Oh…I forgot.
-It seemed like that.
-Well there’s nothing we can do.
-huh?
-But you can’t go back…
Mo Kyung-un looked at So Ye-rin.
When Namjin warrior Guseong Baek appeared she suddenly left her palace but she ended up having to go back.
Therefore she seemed to have to ask her to come separately.
Then Cheongnyeong suddenly looked as if he was shocked and said
-You don’t have to do that.
-What do you mean?
-Look down.
Hearing Cheongnyeong’s words Mokgyeongun looked down at the ground in confusion.
With Mok Gyeong-un’s two eyes whose vision was much more developed than that of ordinary people he saw something like a dot moving on a bush that looked as small as a tuft of hair and also heard a faint sound.
The sound of the plane flying and the wind was so strong that I couldn’t hear it well but when I focused on my hearing I could hear the faint sound.
-Yaaaaaa! Can’t you hear me!
The sound of screaming with internal energy was echoing upwards.
The owner of that evil-screaming voice was none other than Jae Jae-jeong a magician.
* * *
In a nearby forest with few people.
“Hehe…hehe…”
Apostolic monk Jae-jeong Jeong whose face was covered in sweat even stuck out his tongue and let out a rough breath.
Although he was able to hold on by drawing on the energy around him he had exhausted all his stamina trying to catch up with Heumwon who was barely flying away.
This was the first time since he learned martial arts that he felt like he was going to die while performing a light attack.
Mok Gyeong-un smiled and said to him.
“You followed along well.”
“Hehe…hehe…damn…master…you prepared the carriage and told me to wait…hehehehe…you’re just throwing this away and leaving. “What are you doing?”
“iced coffee. I didn’t throw it away. “It happened because of unavoidable circumstances.”
“A situation that cannot be avoided? “What is that…”
-Park!
At that time Seopchun tapped his side with his elbow and whispered in his ear.
“You’d be surprised if you knew what we went through.”
“Surprise?”
“Just be quiet and listen. Actually…”
Nie Chun briefly explained what happened during the escape from the outer palace.
Hearing this the eyes of the apostate monk Jae-jae-jeong widened and he asked a question.
“what? “You fought with Koo Seong-baek the King of the North Wave?”
“no. “I told you to just be quiet and listen but what if you ask me that again?”
Nie Chun shrugged his shoulders as if he was embarrassed.
But despite that he seemed secretly proud.
Although he is said to be a Hapgong Mok Gyeong-un whom he chose as his master competed with and even injured Namjin warrior Gu Seong-baek a member of the Six Heavens who is said to be the pinnacle of the current martial arts world.
This was not something to be dismissed as just luck.
It was a great feat against a wall of walls a peerless expert of the rank of a great master who had reached the level of a wise man.
If this spreads to others even to the martial arts community Mokgyeongwoon’s reputation will also increase.
He may not know it but he might make a name for himself as a new expert.
‘ah….’
At that moment Seopchun lost his appetite.
Come to think of it Mok Kyung-un was found dead in the imperial palace.
That’s why although it’s unfortunate it doesn’t seem like fame will spread because of this incident.
It was an opportunity to go beyond the promising latter-day index and immediately gain a reputation comparable to the Eight Stars but it was unfortunate that it had to be completely hidden because it was a mission related to the imperial palace.
Meanwhile Jae-jeong asked Mok Gyeong-un in an excited voice.
“no. master. Are you really competing against one of the six thousand?”
“hey. Taengjoonga.”
“what?”
Hearing a voice suddenly calling him Apostate Monk Jae-jeong turned his head with a grim look on his face.
The person who called him was flesh and blood and plain.
“Did you just tell me I was busy?”
“Do you call yourself ‘Daengjoong’ and don’t want to hear others call you that?”
“under?”
“Seeing that he calls the woodworker master it seems like he is a subordinate. What kind of habit does a young man have to say to his master?”
“no. Is this Bodhisattva already excited to go to paradise? “He’s acting more like a beggar than this guy and now who’s going to tell him what to do with this young guy…”
-Park!
Even before he could finish speaking Dambaekha revealed his energy.
-Gooooooo!
“If you call a young guy young then what can you say?”
Jae-jae-jeong sensing this flinched for a moment.
This was because he could tell that he was far ahead of him in attack power just by the energy that was revealed.
‘what? ‘Who is this Bodhisattva?’
His work was so profound that just looking at his exposed energy reminded him of his teacher Master Jang Gyeong-gak of Shaolin.
What on earth is this woman?
It was the car she was wondering about.
At that time someone came down in front of So Ye-rin the sixth person and got down on her knees.
He was none other than the masked Geumwiwi Mara Hyeon.
So Ye-rin’s eyes were perplexed by Mara-hyeon’s attitude.
“Now…what do you mean?”
“…..It’s just as I said. I don’t think I will be able to return to the imperial palace with the Six Heavenly Tigers.”
