< Episode 105: Master’s Myeongryul (3) >
The sky fell nearly 200 inches above Cheonjihoe’s inner palace.
There a small not very large bird was flying quietly in the air without even flapping its wings looking down at the ground.
When seen from a distance it looked like an ordinary bird but as soon as we got closer the bird’s appearance was completely different from what we are used to.
The shape of its ears mouth and nose was very similar to that of a human and its body looked like that of an owl.
What makes it even more creepy is that it has three feet and four eyes.
This strangely shaped owl is an imaemangyang also known as the monster Ong (顒).
Yeonggwangsan Mountain exists 2700 ri east of Danhyeolsan Mountain and there are many places on this mountain where grass and trees do not grow.
This monster Ong was a symbol of bad omen as it was said that if it appeared the entire year’s crops would be ruined.
-yes! yes! yes!
Strangely this dragon only seeks out dry land but why is it in the sky above Heaven and Earth?
The pupils of the monster Ong’s four eyes had unusual writing engraved on them.
City.
This was Boile City.
-Kiririk! Kirik!
Each of the four pupils strangely moved and looked downward.
The eyes moved separately making it seem as if they were looking down in all directions.
However the eyes that were moving separately like this were all turned to the same direction except for one towards the main inner area.
That place was none other than the manor of Grand Duke Na Yuryang.
-Sssss!
As Monster Ong narrowed his pupils he could see the fight taking place in the manor.
However as if they soon lost interest in the fights the gaze of the three eyes focused on only one person.
That person was Mok Gyeong-un.
The three eyes focused on Mo Qingyun began to examine every detail.
Everything from appearance to movement.
But that was right then.
‘!?’
The surroundings of the monster Ong who was concentrating on looking down at the ground became dark.
The monster Ong who noticed this too late tried to avoid the shadow that covered him by flying away without even thinking about checking it.
however
-Wow!
Such a monster Ong ended up being eaten by something.
It was none other than Heumwon an imamangryang beast with a bird-shaped upper body and a wasp-like lower body with thorns.
The monster Ong who was just below his level was struggling in his mouth and trying to escape.
-Odduk! Oh my!
He was crushed to death in the mouth of the beast Heumwon.
same time
A dark space.
-Rurg!
Bloody tears flowed from the left eye of a being sitting on a chair in the shadows.
An eye flashed on the forehead of the being that was shedding bloody tears and then a ray of light burst from its mouth.
“Khahahahahahaha!”
As the light spread the surrounding area shook as if there had been an earthquake.
The being in the shadows who had been laughing for a while soon stopped laughing and muttered in a voice that had regained its sense of reason.
“There are always disruptors.”
* * *
-Wow!
‘!?’
A sharp sensation penetrated my skin and the subsequent sensation soon disappeared.
His right leg which was burning white was cut off and he fell helplessly on the floor.
At the same time a scream of pain came out from the mouth of Baekhwadoggok the spirit beast.
-Kwooooooooo!
“Hmm.”
Mo Gyeong-un glanced back and smiled.
I tried to cut off his head in one go but the spirit beast Baekhwadoggok tried to dodge by kicking its front legs in an instant and that was all it did.
He could be said to have saved his life.
-Sigh!
Mo Kyung-un looked up.
There Heumwon a food spirit beast that looked as small as a fingernail was seen flapping its wings and circling in the sky.
‘You handled it well.’
Now that annoying gaze has disappeared.
The first time I felt this discomfort was after arriving at Cheonjihoe.
It definitely felt like someone was looking at him.
It was difficult to find it with just one glance.
However ever since I arrived at the manor of Prince Na Yu-ryang I felt that the discomfort I had faintly felt was growing bigger and bigger.
This allowed me to finally find out where that gaze came from.
‘stomach.’
It was located higher in the sky than expected.
That’s not human.
It’s like this.
If you try to approach it to catch it it will definitely run away due to the distance.
If you did that all you had to do was control your strength appropriately draw attention and deal with it without fighting properly.
Even so it was Heumwon a witch who had recovered from an injury suffered by a Buddhist ball at Shaolin Temple.
Thanks to that kind of help the annoying gaze completely disappeared.
There was no reason to adjust my strength anymore.
“…What the hell are you?”
Master Myeongryul couldn’t help but be taken aback by the sudden change in Mokgyeongun’s momentum.
Although it was covered by the screams it clearly looked like Yeongsoo Baekhwadoggok was injured.
‘My senses continue to linger due to the sharp energy…’
Master Myeongryul’s brow furrowed.
Although he had no eyes all of his senses were extremely developed and he normally spread his true energy in all directions allowing him to accurately grasp everything that was invisible.
However due to this sharp anticipation spreading around Mo Gyeong-un my senses were shaken and I was unable to grasp the true energy.
‘I don’t know what they did but if we didn’t hurry up and join forces…’
-Wow!
It was that moment.
Something passed him and a voice came from behind him.
“Let’s take your right arm first.”
-Tuk! Push!
As soon as he finished saying those words his arm fell off his shoulder and his blood spurted out like a fountain.
-Kiiiiii!
Then the demon beast Yual who had become the armor of Great Mage Myeongryul through the One and Only Human Body also screamed as if in pain.
“Off. “You yuar!”
Master Myeongryul also wanted to scream in pain.
However he endured this with extreme patience and called Yual.
As a result Yual’s body which was near the cut section of his right arm began to tremble and put pressure on the cut section and block it at the same time.
Thanks to this the blood that was gushing out like a fountain stopped.
“It’s a pretty useful magic beast.”
-Park!
Hearing Mok Gyeong-un’s voice which I couldn’t tell whether it was sarcasm or a genuine compliment Great Master Myeongryul hurriedly jumped up and opened the distance and shouted.
“Baekhwadokgok!”
At his cry Baekhwadoggok who was in pain after losing one of his front legs kicked the floor with his hind legs and flew upward.
-Chrrrrrrrr!
His body crouched and spun at extremely high speeds.
As Baekhwadokgok whose entire body became a white flame began to spin the surrounding area was almost engulfed in heat.
-Rarrrrrrrrrr!
-Pot!
In accordance with this Master Myeongryul issued a new sentence.
Although it was difficult to spread true energy to the surroundings there were no problems with other senses so I was able to guess the location.
‘Now that it’s like this I’m going to kill him with a special attack…’
-Wow!
It was that moment.
A black line appeared diagonally from the ground.
-Purrrrr!
Soon Baekhwadokgok’s body which had been spinning rapidly in a spherical shape began to stop.
But that wasn’t the end.
The white flames surrounding my entire body were slowly going out.
Then
-thud!
Soon the body of Yeongsu Baekhwadokgok fell to the floor without any strength.
“Baekhwadokgok!”
Master Myeongryul shouted with an even more distorted expression at the sound of Baekhwadokgok which had lost its strength before unfolding its secret technique.
What on earth just happened?
A sharp energy soared into the sky strong enough to split the air.
From that moment along with the heat the magical power of Yeongsoo Baekhwadokgok was quickly dissipating.
-widely!
Mok Gyeong-un smiled and said to Great Master Myeongryul who stopped mid-flight with the new weapon.
“Would you like some?”
“what?”
“This one.”
-Poof! thud! Grrrrrr!
Something heavy rolled on the floor and soon stopped at Grand Master Myeongryul’s feet.
It was so hot just moments ago that the heat flowed out of it.
‘…Baekhwadogok.’
It was like that.
It was none other than Baekhwadoggok’s severed head.
– Thick!
At that moment I felt pain in my chest.
Because of this the Master’s famous law was clearly known.
Baekhwadokgok the spirit beast whose head and body had just been divided completely lost its breath and the connection between the food spirits was also cut off.
Thanks to that the reaction was pushed towards him.
‘This can’t be right.’
Master Myeongryul could not contain his sincere astonishment.
It was nothing else but a spirit beast.
Even though it does not reach the level of the six demons that are said to be close to divine beasts it was the spiritual beast that was almost at the top in terms of status.
Even though he had taken as his food spirit a being that even countless warriors could not even dream of he too had to fight for almost three days and nights to catch the spirit beast.
However even he suffered so much that Baekhwa Dokgok a spirit beast who had become a food spirit lost his life to the point where it was so vain.
-Wow!
Grand Master Myeongryul bit his lip and then opened his mouth.
“You…what on earth…are you? How can this much power…”
“You said you were giving up on controlling your strength. iced coffee. To be precise there is no need to do that because there are no longer any eyes watching.”
At those words Great Master Myeongryul swallowed his saliva without realizing it.
Although you can’t see it Mok Gyeong-un’s words are just like that and his finger is now pointing up into the sky.
[He will watch.]
[Can you believe they are watching?]
[Do what you have to do. Supreme Magistrate.]
Myeongryul suddenly remembered what the man had said to him.
Does that mean he did something to his eyes?
While I was perplexed I felt Mok Kyung-un approaching.
“Now let’s hear everything he knows.”
-Shudder!
Myeongryul who was so intimidated just by the approach took a step back without realizing it.
What can he do against a monster that is strong enough to kill Baekhwa Dokgok the spirit beast in one go?
Then it happened.
-Rurrrrrr!
“It’s a bastard!”
“Kill him!”
Dozens of warriors began to flock to the north pavilion gate of the back garden.
It was the support force of Master Myeongryul who arrived late.
‘ah!’
Even though they were somewhat inferior to those coming from the east and west they also had some Danju-level experts so it seemed like they could give them some time.
You have to step in between them and use them as a shield…
“That’s annoying.”
At that time Mok Gyeong-un slightly lifted his foot and then
-thud!
He lowered his gaze towards the floor.
At that moment the floor split and the surrounding air spread out in the form of waves.
At the same time dozens of warriors who were running towards them immediately grabbed their chests and fell down spurting out blood.
“Oops!”
“Ugh!”
-dump! dump! dump!
At the sound of them falling Great Master Myeongryul stopped his whole body trembling as if he was about to start a fight.
‘One boe?’
As so many experts fell at once something flashed through his mind like lightning.
That was an urgent report I received some time ago.
This was a strange rumor that a new seventh heaven had appeared.
The new storm that destroyed the Hundred and Eight Arhats of Shaolin in a single step and left the Four Heavenly Dang Family alone.
Even after hearing the rumors I was even more skeptical about the rumors that were hard to believe.
But seeing this I can’t believe it…
“Thousand… Ma?”
