Episode 708: The Magical Rain
“It’s like trash.”
Su-gwan-ji said with a snort. It was ambiguous whether he was referring to Yong-jin or the object that Yong-jin had obtained.
“Yeah, but I can’t help it. If it weren’t for this unavoidable circumstance, I wouldn’t have wanted to take the test with trash either.”
Yongjin said.
Whoosh.
As the mass of light before their eyes disappeared, people shut their mouths and began to run forward again. However, their speed was noticeably slower than before.
Yongjin’s body felt heavy, as if he was running through mud. The resistance was so great that the physical exhaustion was frightening.
The important thing is that I have no idea whether I’m really losing energy right now or if it’s an illusion.
In order to maintain the balance of the body, one must constantly exercise one’s power and also control one’s mind. Most importantly, one must be careful not to be consumed by negative emotions. This is the real test.
Bujongju Daein was deep in thought as he watched Yongjin running like crazy. It was rare for something like trash to come out twice in a row. It was especially unheard of for a genius. It probably wasn’t a coincidence. But if it wasn’t a coincidence… … .
Yongjin and the others continued to run forward like crazy. However, before they could climb a hundred steps, sweat broke out on their foreheads and they began to gasp for breath.
Their whole bodies began to become soaked with fatigue. Their minds were shaken, but they were all strong-willed people, so no one slowed down.
No one here wanted to fall behind. The moment they did, not only would they be recognized as inferior to others, but they would also lose the opportunity to seize the last treasure.
If it were any other place, falling behind might be okay, but not at Myeongcheonje. Falling behind here would damage your self-esteem and immediately become a headache as you become consumed by negative emotions.
Once negative emotions arose, it was difficult to completely get rid of them. Since they could not give up halfway, people just gritted their teeth and endured.
In fact, the most certain way was to slow down and move forward while regulating one’s condition. However, if someone slows down now, others will see that and rush forward, and the one who slows down will fall behind.
Even if you were just trying to change the tempo of your steps, people outside would not think so and would consider it as a defeat already.
Because they couldn’t do that as geniuses, everyone gritted their teeth and ran like crazy.
It was impossible to say, “Let’s all go slowly together,” because the moment you say those words, people will immediately think that you can’t hold out and are begging for a break.
Yongjin was curious about how strong the spirits of these two-legged travelers were. Yongjin was confident that he would not lose to them in spirit and perseverance.
Yongjin, who had come this far from the Bongmyeong Empire with only his skills, was fundamentally different from these well-raised young masters.
Yongjin was physically tired, but he gritted his teeth and followed closely.
Everyone else was a second-class runner, so they could run more easily than others. If Yongjin had been a second-class runner, he would have been able to run so fast that not even his shadow could be seen.
The five people ran desperately to save face. They were very tired, but they pretended that nothing was wrong. That was the only way the others would be disappointed by the overwhelming difference in skill and give up early.
While Yongjin and the others were rushing up the seven hundredth step, Dangwana and Monggi also reached the six hundred and sixty-sixth step. Originally, there was about two hundred steps behind Yongjin, but the speed of the people ahead of them had dropped significantly, so the gap was not that big.
“Yohwa Feather Robe.”
Dang Wan-ah took out a long skirt from the mass of light. The skirt was decorated with various feathers, and it was as splendid as a fairy’s dress. Bu Jong-ju was surprised when he saw the dress.
This was a piece of clothing made by softening the wings of a powerful demon and adding them to a long skirt, and it had a strong defensive function.
It is a rare treasure that can block attacks from powerful enemies just by wearing it. The feathers are imbued with the magical power of the demon, and when activated through soul power, the defense power increases several times.
“Sister, this is exactly the defensive magic weapon you need.”
Dang Wan-ah said excitedly.
“Wan-ah, I’m in a coma so I don’t fight directly with others. So, you take this feather robe.”
Mong-gi shook her head and said. She knew that the defense of this suit was very strong, so she wanted Dang Wan-ah to have it.
“Sister, if I give it to you, just take it. If you don’t want it, I’ll just throw it away.”
Dang Wan-ah said, grumbling a little.
Mongki was touched. Dang Wan-ah was straightforward and did not like beating around the bush. If she had refused, Dang Wan-ah would have really thrown away their friendship in anger.
Mong-gi had no choice but to accept the friendship and put his soul power into it. Then, the friendship suddenly began to glow and was instantly covered by Mong-gi.
Covered in colorful feathers, Mongki looked as beautiful as a fairy who had fallen to earth.
“Sister, you’re so pretty. That guy Yongjin can’t even see this pretty sight and just runs forward.”
Dang Wan-ah wanted to tell Yong-jin to look at Mong-gi, but Yong-jin was panting and desperately climbing the stairs, so she didn’t have the energy to look back.
“Thank you, Wan-ah.”
Mongki smiled and used her soul power. Then the light disappeared from her body and a small feather like an ornament appeared on her head.
This is another form of friendship, when Mongi is attacked, he immediately returns to his original form to defend himself, and when the danger is over, he transforms back into a small feather and replenishes his strength with Mongi’s soul. This was a characteristic of Hongi.
“Let’s see what my sister’s luck will be today.”
Dang Wan-ah pointed to the mass of light in front of Mong-gi.
Mongki smiled faintly and put his hand into the mass of light. What Mongki took out was a white bead with strong soul waves.
“Engagement Pearl? Can it really be that I’m this lucky?”
One of the officers said in surprise that what Mong-gi had picked up was a treasure of commercial grade.
The probability of getting the original product treasure was as low as the probability of getting trash. Yongjin getting trash twice was incredibly unlucky.
On the other hand, Mongki received the prize twice. The treasure of the 333rd step was divided into three grades: high, medium, and low, so the high-grade treasure could already be considered the best.
Mong-gi, who had obtained the best treasure last time and the best treasure this time, had surprisingly good luck, forming a sharp contrast with Yong-jin.
Last time, Dang Wan-ah had average luck, but this time, she got a rare marriage tool, a premium-grade Dharma tool. How can there be such a big difference in their personalities even though they trained together?
People looked at Yongjin’s back as he ran like crazy with his butt sticking out, and made expressions of incomprehension. Could this really be the difference?
The betrothal drink is actually a type of auxiliary practice magic tool that can increase the power of the soul, making it a rare treasure that the betrothed have.
The only drawback to this betrothal is that it is a one-time consumable item. Once the soul’s original power within the betrothal disappears, the betrothal breaks and is completely destroyed.
However, the soul power contained within the fiancé was enough to turn a beginner with weak soul waves into an expert.
“Wan-ah, I’ll give this to you.”
Mongki said.
Dang Wan-ah shook her head.
“Although I’m not as good as my sister, my soul power is pretty good. I think it would be better to give it to Gokyang, who has weak soul power. He’ll be safe if this magic tool protects him.”
Mong-gi nodded. Although not as strong as Mong-gi, Dang-wan-ah’s soul power was also strong. Even if she used the betrothal spell, at most, the soul power would only increase to the point where it could do work.
However, if you give it to a beginner, Gokyang, he will become a master right away. He won’t be able to fight with the power of the soul, but even if he meets the spirit, he won’t be killed instantly.
Mongki looked back. He saw Gokyang and the others following him with difficulty, sweating profusely.
“Gokyang, I’ll give you the prize first, so cheer up.”
Mong-gi smiled faintly and threw the betrothal drink he was holding to Gok-yang.
Gokyang, who had been following along and listening to what the two were saying, cried out loud with a moved expression as soon as he received the betrothal gift.
“Don’t worry, sisters-in-law, this song will never disappoint you two!”
Mong-gi and Dang-wan-ah, who had been smiling, turned red in the face because of Gok-yang’s random remark. The two quickly turned around and started moving forward again.
“Kwak Yeon, if you go a little further, you can get your reward.”
At this time, Kwak Yeon desperately held on, but as his will weakened, his body began to feel heavy again. He moved forward, almost being heard by the four Dragon Blood Warriors.
At this time, Gok Yang and others who had already climbed the 666th step were delighted to have obtained the treasure. The treasures they had obtained were of high quality and some were of low quality. Although they had not obtained treasures as great as Meng Qi and Dang Wan Ya, they were still excited to have obtained the treasure.
Obtaining a treasure was a kind of spiritual comfort and encouragement. Seeing that this treasure was better than the last one, it was clear that the next treasure would be something beyond imagination.
Currently, the disciples who are ascending the Myungcheonje are almost scattered, except for Yongjin and the Four Great Geniuses.
Among the twenty or so ascensionists, the one in front was Gok Yang, closely followed by Ak Ja Bong, Song Myeong Won, and Lee Gi. Other ascensionists were following behind them.
Speaking of tenacity, having suffered through nine bone-crushing pains, they were bound to be stronger than the other Heavenly Walkers. They were already fifty steps ahead of the other Heavenly Walkers.
Behind the ordinary celestial traveler, the Dragon Blood Warriors and Gwak Yeon followed. One by one, they climbed the 666th step and began to take out the treasure.
“Kwak Yeon, wake up quickly. You have to pick up the treasure.”
A Dragon Blood Warrior slapped Gwak Yeon in the face and shouted.
Only then did Kwak Yeon weakly open his eyes and, with the support of people, put his hand into the mass of light.
People watched him, praying that he would pull out a treasure that would spark his mind.
But unfortunately, not everyone was as lucky as Mong-gi and Dang-wan-ah. What Gwak-yeon pulled out was nothing more than a low-grade sword. Gwak-yeon, who could have made a better sword than this long sword, sat down on the floor with a look of disappointment on his face.
dump.
Kwak Yeon collapsed on the floor and fell asleep. No matter how much he was shaken, he did not wake up.
