Episode 79 – The Tale of the Three Kings (2)
Afterwards, I was able to learn detailed treatment methods from the editor.
However, the treatment was so difficult and complicated that it took a whole day just to learn it.
Only after a day had passed did I finally get to see Dang So-hyang again.
In one day, Tang So-hyang became more and more haggard.
I was almost on the verge of death, but it seemed I couldn’t delay any longer.
“Madam, please excuse me for a moment.”
There was no answer. Tang So-hyang, who was now unconscious, could only let out a small, faint gasp.
I took a small, deep breath, as if matching my breathing with hers.
If something goes wrong, not only Dang So-hyang’s life, but even my life is in danger.
I took several deep breaths out of nervousness. In my head, I repeated the knowledge I had learned from Pyeonjak.
Then he carefully placed his hands on Dang So-hyang’s body. He calmly closed his eyes and focused on the sensation of his fingertips and Dang So-hyang.
And so, she, whom I felt with my fingertips, seemed to be torn apart by a mixture of cold chill and boiling heat.
A poison that was much more harsh and destructive than I expected.
‘First of all, it is important to suppress the poison in the throat.’
I recalled the teachings of the editor and repeated the tenets of the Youngbo Pil method.
The method of completing the spiritual treasure.
Earth Immortal’s work.
Ok-ak-hwan-dan (Jade Liquid Return Elixir).
Kwaaaaaaaah-!
The spiritual energy of the Yeongbo Pilbeop passed through my fingertips and was sucked into Tang So-hyang’s body.
The sudden intruder caused the poisonous air of the heavenly poisonous body to boil all at once.
It was a poisonous energy comparable to the magical energy of Blood Demon Heavenly Rajin that I had seen at the Yongbongjihoe, but it was still no match for the spiritual energy of Yeongbo Pilbeop.
The seething poison was instantly suppressed by the spiritual energy of Yeongbo Pilbeop.
The poisonous energy of the Heavenly Poisonous Body, which was completely under my control, could be taken out of Tang So-hyang’s body if I wanted to.
But it didn’t mean much.
Tang So-hyang’s Heavenly Poison Body was a talent that allowed her to produce a thousand different types of poison within her body.
That is, even if this poison was taken out, it would eventually just be reproduced.
Although it was possible to ‘improve’ the condition and extend Tang So-hyang’s lifespan a little, it was not possible to ‘cure’ Tang So-hyang.
That’s why the editor also shook his head.
He also asserted that the best thing he could do was to ‘improve’ the condition, but that he could not cure Dang So-hyang’s body from the poison of heaven.
But he said there is a cure.
It was just a treatment method that the writer himself could not perform.
He couldn’t do it. Not even the Three Divine Physicians of Jian’an could do it. Not even the so-called divine doctors of the celestial world could do it.
Only one.
It was said that knitting was the only treatment possible for me.
Pyeonjak said that Tang So-hyang’s illness was a phenomenon that occurred because Tang So-hyang’s body was rejecting the toxic energy of the Heavenly Poisonous Body.
If it was natural, then it was natural.
There is no such thing as a being that accepts poison that harms life. It is possible to ‘hold’ poison, but ‘accepting’ poison is a different matter.
It is something that all living beings in this nature should naturally have.
so.
From now on, we must go against this obviousness.
So that Tang So-hyang’s body would not reject the poisonous energy of the Heavenly Poisonous Body, and so that the poisonous energy of the Heavenly Poisonous Body would not harm Tang So-hyang’s body.
Her ‘innate energy’ had to be changed.
It was a fate that had been bestowed upon her by the heavens from birth, and she had to twist the vitality that was at the root of her being.
Thus, even the death and fate of a woman named Dang So-hyang, which was originally planned, had to be distorted.
Going against the grain.
It would be no different from going against the will of heaven, so Pyeonjak said that he could only teach the method and that it was something that only he could do.
I took a long, deep breath.
And slowly, he circulated the poisonous energy under his control through Tang So-hyang’s energy and blood vessels.
Then the surrounding air became turbid under the influence of the poison. Every moment of breathing in and out through the nose was painful.
The amplitude of the poison grew even stronger. The seething poison took on the appearance of something that seemed to have sprung from the abyss.
It was extremely poisonous and vicious.
Suddenly, the poisonous air broke free of the control of the Youngbo Pilbeop and began to run wild in all directions.
The ferocity of a wounded beast rampaging showed its sharp fangs towards me, who was trying to defy the will of heaven.
Kyaaaaaaaaaaah-!!!
A terrible force came over me, as if the natural order was being destroyed. The tranquil nature was shaken, and death was engraved on all living, breathing things.
Heaven and earth are not kind.
Heaven and earth conceive and nurture life, but they also slaughter it mercilessly.
Before it, there is no good and evil, right and wrong.
Therefore, Taesang Laojun said not to artificially interfere with nature.
It is the natural law that the heavens send floods and the earth experiences droughts. If you try to go against it, you will inevitably face great disaster.
So, I dare say this.
It must be the will of heaven that transcends the demonic energy of Blood Demon Heavenly Rajin, so I had to resist this will of heaven and twist Tang So-hyang’s death.
The method of completing the spiritual treasure.
Jiseon-gong (Earthly Immortal) – The method of revering longevity and immortality.
The Later Flying Golden Crystal.
Kwaaaa …
A giant fire dragon roared violently and resisted the will of heaven.
The power of reversing the heavens, which burned the demonic energy of Blood Demon Heavenly Rajin and overturned the heavens called Akjihak.
Hwaruk, hwarurururururuk!!
It began to burn and devour even the death and fate of the being called Dang So-hyang.
But it wasn’t without a price.
‘Eu …
The backlash from the reversal of fortune was directed at me in its entirety, and I felt a burning pain in every blood vessel in my body.
A pain even more terrible than the one I had when I had accepted the demonic energy of Blood Demon Heavenly Rajin swept through my entire body.
I exerted so much strength that the blood vessels in my eyes burst and my vision turned bright red. My mind became clouded and my consciousness began to fade away.
But I had to endure it. I had to accept it.
Every time I take in the burning pain.
Every time I endure the backlash against the tide.
Crisp, crunchy.
I could see Dang So-hyang’s face becoming more and more comfortable.
* * *
Seriously, I lost all my energy.
I was completely out of my mind, as if I had used my innate energy. That was only natural, since I had completely used up all of my internal energy, which spanned fifteen years.
My whole body felt as if it had been squeezed out of me, and I had no energy whatsoever.
However, since it only consumed internal energy and not innate energy, it will quickly recover after a few days of rest.
I patted Dang So-hyang’s head once, who was sleeping soundly with a relaxed expression, and then went out of the room.
Right then.
Suddenly, I felt a rough movement in my arms.
I thought maybe someone had called me from the study room.
“Who is it?”
I took the folding screen out of my bosom and checked its contents.
└[Sword Immortal Yeo Dong-bin]
: Youngest, are you there?
@Cheongun
And what I saw was none other than Yeo Dong-bin’s writing. It was a different result from what I had expected, which was that it would be Byeon-jak and Geon-an Samsin-i (建安三神醫).
Yeo Dong-bin was calling me ‘youngest’, and it was no wonder, because I was being called ‘youngest’ again at the Taoist chat room.
Firstly, Gucheonhyeonnyeo wanted to call me the youngest, and secondly, Wang Jungyang and other Gaepajosas had a hard time with Lee Cheol-gae.
Lee Cheol-goe was a god of the same level as Jong-ri-kwon and Yeo Dong-bin, so he was a distant senior to the Gae-pa-jo-sa.
I also felt a bit awkward calling Lee Cheol-goe the youngest, so I started calling myself the youngest of the group again.
└[Cheongun]
: Yes, I do. What’s going on?
└[Sword Immortal Yeo Dong-bin]
: Oh, it’s not that I didn’t visit Gu Ya-ja.
Crafting a divine sword to learn the Cheon-dun sword technique.
It seemed like the quote came from Guyaja.
└[Sword Immortal Yeo Dong-bin]
: But I think that······the merit value will be much higher than expected.
└[Cheongun]
: How much is it?
└[Sword Immortal Yeo Dong-bin]
: Twice the amount of merit you currently have······ something like that?
Double.
But the merit I had was as much as 10,000 years. If I double that, it would be 20,000 years······.
“What kind of divine sword are you making?”
At this point, it could be said to be crazy.
It is beyond the level of a divine sword, and could be called a mad god sword.
But after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that if I could handle the crazy martial art called Cheon-dun-geom-beop, my sword would have to become crazy as well.
Above all, it seemed that the influence of my existence being known in the celestial world and the consequent increase in the consumption of merit and decrease in the acquisition of merit had a significant effect.
Anyway, to purchase the Heavenly Sword, you need 10,000 years worth of merit, but where on earth did you get 10,000 years worth of merit? It’s not even someone’s name.
└[Cheongun]
: Senior, I’ll be out for a bit.
* * *
After leaving the Taoist discussion room, I went straight to the discussion rooms of Bian Que and Jian An San Xin Yi.
And since it was still unknown that I had come in, I wrote a note on the scroll as if to make a sound.
└[Cheongun]
: Are you there?
└[Compiled by Divine Doctor]
: Oh, you came!
└[Junggyeong (仲景) Jang Junggyeong]
: What happened?
└[Gun-i (君異) enclosed]
: Did it work out well?
└[Yuanhua (元化) Hwa-ta]
: It seems like he came back alive for now.
As soon as my words came to mind, the replies from Pyeonjak and Geonan Samshinui came flooding back to me. It seemed as if they had been waiting for me to come.
└[Cheongun]
: Yes, thanks to you, it worked out well. Thank you very much.
└[Compiled by Divine Doctor]
: Huh, you really did that? No matter how fateful you were, it wasn’t easy to accept that fate······.
The face of the magpie-like portrait was one of shock rather than admiration.
And sure enough······I almost died.
└[Compiled by Divine Doctor]
: Ahem. Then what about the······ thing I asked···.
After a while, Pyeonjak asked cautiously.
It was a piece of writing that at first it was called a ‘condition’ but now it is called a ‘request’.
└[Cheongun]
: That’s why I came here. I’ve been thinking about it, and I think this might be a good idea.
After I gathered my thoughts, I wrote some words on the scroll and sent them.
└[Cheongun]
: I run a fairly large estate in the secular world.
To be exact, it was a military post, but in reality, it was no different from a manor.
└[Cheongun]
: We are planning to establish an organization called ‘Hyemindang’ here to train the successors of our seniors and at the same time treat people.
Hyemin Hall.
It was a name I just made up, but it roughly meant that he was giving grace to the people.
And as the saying goes, the idea was to educate and train the descendants of Pyeonjak and Geonan Samshinui (建安三神醫) here.
These Hye-min-dangs were basically intended to serve the role of treating all those who came to the Hye-min-dang.
And if possible, we also thought about gradually increasing its scale.
For now, it will be operated centered around the missionary office, but in the future, it is planned to establish treatment centers throughout the Jang River Heroes Corps and inspect all areas where the Jang River flows.
Above all else.
└[Cheongun]
: Following the wishes of my seniors, I plan to not collect any treatment fees from patients.
I had no intention of receiving any medical expenses whatsoever.
The cost of medicine would be quite high, but Cheon San Ja’s fortune was still quite large.
Of course, no matter how much wealth a person has, it will eventually be depleted if he has to cover the medical and treatment costs of so many people.
But no matter what, it was a bit much to receive treatment fees when we were training and operating ‘future generations’ who would carry on the legacy of Pyeonjak and Geonan Samshinui.
I’ll think about money later, and above all, I can barely maintain my life with just the automatic merits of the Jang Gang Hyup Gak Dan.
Since it has come to this, I decided that it would be better not to charge for treatment, as I thought that a new automatic merit path could be created.
It was a decision I made after a lot of thought.
And I thought that even the Three Divine Physicians of Jian’an would be satisfied with this.
I thought that this was worth the merit.
However, the three divine physicians of Jian’an, including Pyeonjak, did not say anything.
There were absolutely no conflicting opinions like, “This seems better,” or “That seems better.”
[The divine doctor, Pyeonjak, donated 2,500 years of merit to Cheongun.]
[Junggyeong Jang Junggyeong donated 2,500 years of merit to Cheongun.]
[Gun-i (君異) Dong-bong-nim donated 2,500 years of merit to Cheong-un-nim.]
[Wonhwa Hwa-ta donated 2,500 years of merit to Cheongun.]
······They simply responded with merit.
└[Compiled by Divine Doctor]
: What the! Why is this the only offering I can give?!!? I clearly put in 100,000 years, so why on earth?!
└[Junggyeong (仲景) Jang Junggyeong]
: Take more. Take more. Take more. Take more. Take more. Take more. Take more. Take more.
└[Gun-i (君異) enclosed]
: Won’t you take the merit? Won’t you take the merit? Won’t you take the merit? Won’t you take the merit? Won’t you take the merit? Won’t you take the merit?
└[Yuanhua (元化) Hwa-ta]
: Take them all. Please take them all. Please take them all. Please take them all.
······I really thought they were crazy.
* * *
Tang So-hyang slowly opened her eyes as she felt something tickling her eyes.
But for some reason, it felt unfamiliar.
A refreshing feeling, as if waking up from a deep sleep.
I couldn’t remember when I last slept so peacefully.
And it was the first time I woke up without any pain.
‘uh······?’
Tang So-hyang could realize that there was something strange about her condition.
