Vengeful spirit Wei Mengchen could not hide his embarrassment at the golden eyes that were looking precisely at him.
Then Grand Duke Na Yu-liang raised the corner of his mouth and said.
“This is really fun. “Did vengeful spirits really exist?”
‘…how?’
As expected he was clearly aware of himself.
Wei Mengchen didn’t know what to do.
I had to get out of this place first but my spiritual body was cut in half by Grand Duke Na Yu-ryang so I couldn’t move.
I didn’t know why it was like that but I had to escape quickly so I could tell Na Yulyang’s plan and the fact that he could see the spirit body.
It was then.
-Whoosh!
Na Yulyang’s hand grabbed his neck.
Wei Mengchen’s eyes widened at this.
Not just seeing but grasping the spiritual body as if it were real?
Is this possible?
I was surprised but I Yulryang raised the corners of his mouth and said
“But. Why did the vengeful spirit that came out of Ho Jong-hyuk’s body resemble Wei Meng-cheon?”
Wei Mengchen immediately stiffened at his words.
* * *
The residence manor of Grand Duke Na Yu-ryang.
After returning from work Na Yu-ryang snorted and said to someone.
“Now they come in and out as if they were coming in and out of my house.”
At his words someone appeared from the shadows next to the pillars of the manor.
He was a lion before the elder his face covered with cotton cloth because of terrible burns.
“No matter how much it is a match against elders why don’t you do it in moderation? “There is no place within the inner city that is not covered by Master’s eyes.”
“I was careful to be as inconspicuous as possible. Grand Duke.”
At his words I Yulyang shook his head.
Active support for him in the Presbyterian War was what he had hoped for but taking such an active role was quite a hindrance in another sense.
If retired people continue to come forward they are bound to stand out.
As long as he had not yet surpassed Huaiju by martial arts he needed to be careful.
Then the messenger from Presbyterian Hall suddenly opened his mouth in an interesting tone.
“But Grand Duke. He has something interesting in his hands.”
‘!?’
At these words one of Nayuliang’s eyebrows rose.
That was because he was holding in his hands a vengeful spirit who was suffering from severed limbs.
“Do you see this?”
The reason why Na Yulyang was puzzled was simple.
This was because the lion in the Presbyterian Church was blind as he had lost both eyes due to burns.
You could say that the development of other senses was due to the loss of sight but this was a completely different matter.
Then the messenger from the Presbyterian Church approached and said.
“I think you have already forgotten who brought the eyes to Confucius.”
“…Are you saying that Confucius can see this because of these eyes?”
“Of course. Those eyes belong to a spirit beast level Imae Mang-ryang (魑魅魍魎) and are completely different from the eyes that Confucius had before. That’s why you can even see vengeful spirits.”
“Even if it’s me how can you see it? Are you just pretending to be blind?”
“Is that possible? Small people are truly blind. However it is only visible because of spiritual enlightenment.”
At his words I Yulryang snorted.
He is also a bad guy.
Even though my martial arts skills have become more advanced since I gained this magical eye after closing I still can’t see the limits clearly.
Is it really true that he is just a lion from the Presbyterian War?
As my suspicions grew I tried to dig into him several times but he disappeared like a ghost every time so there was no way to find out.
‘…Just think of it as playing into your hands right now.’
He himself was not a very easy person.
It’s not you guys who are using it it’s yourself.
The moment the purpose was achieved and its utility value dropped I was about to tell you what Tosagu Paeng was.
But not now.
“Did you say it was a law? “Whether you are spiritually enlightened or not is none of this Confucius’ business so get out of here.”
“Is it already a wedding banquet?”
“Guests from Wonsalgak are about to arrive soon.”
“Wonsalgak? Whoa. “This is quite elaborate.”
“what?”
“Even so I was waiting because I felt like I needed to inform the Archduke but it was a good thing to see that he was looking for Wonsalgak.”
“…What does that mean?”
“I don’t think the guests of Wonsalgak will have to wait. “Please follow the little man.”
‘!?’
* * *
The head office of Wonsalgak.
A strange look appeared in the eyes of Grand Duke Na Yuryang who entered with his back behind him.
That’s right inside I saw In Seo-ok a royal family member with pale skin and a bizarre appearance.
In Seo-ok with black smoke flowing out of her mouth was longing for something with her painful face but her arms and legs were restrained and she could not move.
In response Na Yu-ryang asked Yul-myeong the messenger of the Presbyterian Church.
“Why are you doing this? “Are you poisoned?”
“Why don’t you just see it with your own eyes?”
“See it with your eyes?”
I Yulyang who was puzzled soon took down the blindfold over his right eye.
Na Yool-ryang frowned as she lowered the blindfold and looked at In Seo-ok with small golden-focused eyes.
That’s because In Seo-ok couldn’t feel her vitality at all.
It was no different from her corpse.
“What is this…?”
“It’s a live ghost.”
“what?”
“Six People Necromancy is a forbidden secret art that has turned Inseo-ok Gakju into a living corpse ghost.”
“Corpse ghost?”
“yes.”
Na Yu-ryang asked in a tone that she could not understand his words.
“I heard that this person Master Hani is a master of outstanding skills who was personally invited by Lord Hoi. How did he end up like this?”
This is the inner sanctuary of the Cheonjihoe.
How did something like this happen in this place that is completely protected from the outside world?
I was puzzled but Yulmyeong the messenger from the Presbyterian Church answered.
“It appears that another radiation is involved.”
“radiation?”
“Yes if you are the main force of the footnote of Inseo-ok who originally visited Japan you will not be attacked by someone but if the opponent is above you the situation is different.”
“Are you saying that a stronger radiation intervened?”
“yes.”
“Did you find out who it is?”
“There is someone who can guess.”
“Who is that?”
“This is a footnote from Haeseon-gak.”
“A footnote in Haeseongak?”
“Just as the martial arts system of the martial arts people exists so does the rank exist for the Bangsa masters. Among them Bangsin who has reached the peak is called Bangsin.”
The titles given to Bangsa are divided into Shinilwolgimyosu (神日月技杳輸).
Among them the one who was said to be the best was Bangsin (方神).
“So the footnote in Haeseon-gak means Bangsin?”
“Yes he is quite famous. “He’s also annoying because of his unique techniques.”
“Unique technique? “Are you talking about making Inseo-ok’s footnotes like this?”
“no. Although this is banned because it is quite ineffective it is a secret art that anyone can practice if they practice it.”
“Then what are you talking about?”
“It is a technique to fold space.”
“Fold space?”
Grand Duke Na Yu-ryang showed interest in this.
Doesn’t folding space mean that you can move freely anywhere?
In a sense it was a convenient technique but in some ways it was a very dangerous technique to use.
“You can think of it as a type of four-county land. “It is a unique technique that can only be used by someone who has mastered magic which is close to Zen magic.”
“Is he the only one who can do it?”
“I know that only you can do it within Haeseongak.”
In response to his response Na Yu-ryang looked at Yu-myeong raised one eyebrow and said.
“For a messenger from the Elder Hall you know more about witchcraft than I thought. “The same goes for bringing me these eyes.”
“Hehehe. “I’m just interested in various things.”
“Can we say that this is just the level of interest?”
“The small person is simply trying to help the Grand Duke in his great work. “Don’t be too guarded.”
“….”
Nayuliang snorted at these words.
The more he knew the more his vigilance inevitably increased.
But one question arose.
“But how are you so sure that this happened at Haeseongak?”
To this question Yulmyeong the messenger from the Presbyterian Hall bowed his head and answered.
“Unfortunately I narrowly missed the woman who was controlling the corner of Inseook. “It’s my fault.”
“girl?”
“Yes she was a very rude girl.”
I couldn’t see his appearance because I lost my eyes but I remembered his voice and body odor.
He couldn’t catch him because he escaped by opening the space but from what he knows that technique also has a weakness.
I probably couldn’t have gone that far away.
I thought it was still inside the castle so I blocked off the area around the castle.
“Don’t worry we’ll catch you soon. “But before that I think I can show some bitterness to that rude woman.”
“What do you mean?”
“The vengeful spirit that the Grand Duke captured. “Can I take care of it for a while?”
“We haven’t figured out the exact reason behind this yet.”
No matter how much it hurt his spiritual body Na Yulyang kept his mouth shut and tried to get help from Wonsalgak a group of radiants.
“Vengeance spirits are different from humans. “You cannot find out simply by causing pain to the spiritual body.”
“…Are you saying there is another way?”
“yes. Through that we can even trace who is behind the vengeful spirit.”
“Hoo. okay?”
“Would you please leave it to the small person?”
In response Na Yu-ryang handed over Wi Maeng-cheon the vengeful spirit who was holding the back of his neck.
Likewise Yulmyeong was also able to catch the vengeful spirit with his own hands.
Yulmyeong who was holding onto the vengeful spirit immediately made an informal hand sign with his left hand.
-chuck!
Im (臨)
soldier
dog
Soon thick smoke drifted out from Yulmyeong’s palm.
-Ssssss!
It wasn’t even on fire but it was a strange thing.
As the smoke thickened the corners of Yulmyeong’s mouth turned up in a sly tone.
Let Na Yulyang wonder about this.
“It must be a food spirit after all.”
“Shikigami?”
“yes. It can be said that it is a form of magic that creates a relationship with someone and forces them to become your servant. “It’s just surprising.”
“Surprising?”
“yes. Haeseongak Gakju or his disciples who have reached the level of Bangsin may be able to manipulate somewhat low-ranking vengeful spirits as food spirits but… should I say that they are somehow unbecoming of someone who practices Zen arts?”
“What are you talking about?”
Nayuliang asked as if he didn’t understand at all.
To this Yulmyeong shook his head and answered.
“no. “No matter what you have to pay the price for your intervention.”
“How do you mean that?”
“As I said before food spirits are connected by a connection. But this kite is like connecting souls.”
“Continue your soul?”
“yes. Therefore if this is forcibly cut off the food spirit will be permanently destroyed and the connected owner will suffer a strong spiritual blow.”
“Hoo. okay?”
“If you add a little more magic through this process you will soon be able to find out where that slut is.”
“You’re confident.”
“Hehehe. “It’s not particularly difficult.”
Nayuliang’s eyes narrowed at his answer.
I knew he was an unusual person but seeing that he was capable of this kind of magic made me even more curious about his identity.
Then Yulmyeong made a hand sign with his left hand and touched the vengeful spirit’s head with his right hand.
Then before long
‘This?’
A red thread-like thing was seen through the right eye of Prince Na Yu-ryang.
But the moment it touches the hand of the law
-Pachik!
A bright spark flew out and the red thread broke.
At the same time while holding on to the red thread where the commandment had been broken he put his hands together and made the immovable heart seal and began to recite something that looked like a spell.
“Cheonjeongjeong Sunmoonjeong Cheonjihapgijeong Sunwolhapkimyeong Shingwihapgihyeong twenty-hapapasim Asimhapisim Cheonsimmansim tenmanmansim Uihapasim Taesangnogun’s salary and salary rules!”
The technique he memorizes is a type of the Super Hwan Harmony Technique (招歡和合法) which originally required an amulet but he formed the technique using only his main strength.
If anyone had seen him his skills would have been astounding.
however
-Papapapap!
Yulmyeong who was holding his hands together suddenly staggered and was pushed back.
And then soon
“Foot!”
A handful of black blood spurted out from his mouth like a fountain.
Seeing that I Yulyang frowned and asked.
“What are you doing?”
I think this is also a type of drinking method.
-Wow!
Yulmyeong gritted his teeth and spoke in a somewhat angry voice.
“…I deflected the jutsu.”
“what?”
* * *
-Wow!
“Whew.”
Mok Kyung-un lightly relaxed his body and took a long breath.
I don’t know who it was but he was trying to track him down by cutting ties.
However Mokgyeongun who had reached the stage of life and death and had extremely heightened sensitivity to all energy struck it down.
He came with him a horrible face full of burns.
‘…Nayulryang.’
I could also see his face nearby.
Mok Gyeong-un looked at his subordinates around him and opened his mouth.
“I guess it’s time to go back.”
