Reincarnation of the Demon - Chapter 25



Only Noblemtl

sacrum (6)

Yong-un’s appearance when he came out of the forest was not good. He gave his life to catch a warrior with higher skill than him. Although he blocked the fist mixed with blood and magic, he injured him internally, and because of the bet he had forced upon him, his face was extremely pale.

His blood was stained on his tattered clothes. He looked miserable.

As soon as we left the forest, what was waiting for us was Elder Yun and Plum Blossom Sword.

In the distance, the battle scene where the masters had drawn upon the secrets of the heavens was as gruesome as Yongun.

The energy itself was distorted, creating a haze in the air, and the forest below it was annihilated as if a small catastrophe had occurred, turning it into a barren land.

In that place where life, magic, blood, and even yogic energy were all mixed together, the strong scent of plum blossoms weighed it all down, so it was bound to be chaotic.

However, Elder Yun’s appearance was intact. The same goes for Maehwageombong. Maehwageombong’s white uniform was covered in brightly colored pollen, but he didn’t seem to have any major injuries.

‘Only me…’

Plum Blossom Sword Breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two. Upon closer inspection, he noticed that her complexion was also a little pale.

“I’m so glad you’re both safe.”

“Are they all dead?”

“I wish I had, but no. I cut off the ear of the bloodthirsty demon, but I couldn’t kill him.”

A fierce answer not befitting a Taoist. Elder Yun was still holding onto his backpack and slightly bending his back. At those words, Maehwageombong, who had been glaring at his master, shook his head.

“The woman named Chohwaseon didn’t die either. If it weren’t for the strange method that gave her strength, she would have gone to help the dragon prince.”

“But how did you survive? Those bloodthirsty bastards aren’t stupid, and they seem to have quite a bit of power. Of course, not all of it.”

“What did you think I was? I killed them all.”

There were several externally-oriented people in Samhwachwijeong. It was not a force that an unknown externally-oriented warrior could handle alone. The Yinhyeolgak, one of the twelve constellations of the Demonic Cult, was comparable to other prestigious sects.

Of course, they were of low status…

“That’s amazing.”

Elder Yun was truly impressed.

“I might have been in danger if the Dragon Lord hadn’t helped me. Since one of the cores of the truth collapsed, its power has decreased.”

It was the Plum Blossom Sword that spoke of taking care of one of the Mosanpa Taoists when Yongwoon ran into the forest. Since the effect was maximized when all of the Jin were in their respective positions, it was indeed not a wrong statement.

Elder Yun, who was looking at Yongun with interest, stroked his beard and said.

“Disciple of the Demon Doctor. Do you not wish to become my disciple?”

“yes?”

“Of course, that mean-spirited personality needs to be fixed, but with Hwasan’s pure mind method, your personality will become somewhat gentle. Although Hwasan is a swordsman, it’s not that he’s not good at fists. His blood-breathing sword will be even more dazzling than his master, Ma-ui.”

“…I refuse.”

“Elder…”

As the gaze of the plum blossom sword became more fierce, Elder Yun snorted and turned his head away.

“Okay. I’m saying this because I feel sorry for them. They’re just tangled up like that. Let’s hurry and go. There’s a limit to how much these open beggars can do to prevent information from leaking out.”

“for a moment.”

Eun-hui-mok stopped walking. When Hyeol-mae-geom turned his head in puzzlement, Eun-hui-mok and Nam-a took a step forward and looked at him.

“I’ve decided.”

“decision?”

“I’m not going to Hanam.”

“Are you saying I’m going to die?”

“no.”

It was Yongwoon who came. Yongwoon spoke while patting Hwimok’s head once again.

“I will cure this child.”

“Ugh..”

It was expected. But I was hoping it would happen, not that I was sure it would happen.

“Really, can you cure the immortal bone…?”

“I haven’t tried it, but I should. And I can do it.”

Yongwoon smiled and patted Eunhuimok on the head.

“Isn’t this child shaking?”

At those words, the two Hwasanpa Taoist priests were left speechless.

Elder Yun, who had been laughing, shook his head.

“Yes, even though I am a member of the political party, it really hurts to see those bastards get this kind of information.”

“Elder!”

“So what? It’s not like I’ve entered a cult or a demonic cult, and Mok-i has become a normal kid again.”

“He is not an ordinary child.”

Yongwoon looked around and said.

“It means becoming a half-immortal.”

**

“Can you explain how to do that?”

Elder Yun’s tone softened. It was unclear whether he trusted Yongun or Hwimok, but there was clearly no hostility.

The aftermath of the battle, the blood and flesh that had settled on the ground, the aftermath caused by the clash of ki and ki, was slowly explained by Woon, who had laid down Hwimok.

“I will use the Im-maek (任脈). It is one of the eight meridians that connects the Baihui point (百會穴) to the Hoe-eum point (會陰穴). In fact, it can be seen as the meridian that controls the center of the human body. Originally, the celestial energy that extends from the sky to the human body does not flow into the body along the meridian but only flows to the upper tian, but once it is started to flow, it will continue to flow.”

“Is it so that the weather passes through the body as is?”

“You’re looking at it right. That’s right.”

“However, the energy of heaven will not escape through the perineum point. The vital energy lying outside the perineum point will block it, and instead, the amount of energy coming in will increase without going out. The energy of heaven will continue to accumulate, and the body may burst.”

“If it’s the perineum point, then yes. However, I plan to open another acupuncture point in this child’s body. A new acupuncture point from the perineum point to the Yongquan point on the soles of both feet.”

Breaking through a new blood vessel. It wasn’t something I could say easily.

The number of acupuncture points in the human body is a whopping 389, including 360 acupuncture points in the meridians. If you try to artificially create a new acupuncture point and the meridians and acupuncture points get tangled or damaged, you will be lucky and most will die.

Indeed, Elder Yun immediately refuted Yongwoon’s words. He asked urgently, as if he couldn’t believe it.

“Are you aware of what you’re saying? The human body isn’t something that can be easily changed or manipulated. There have been numerous attempts to artificially adjust the blood flow in humans throughout the history of the Central Plains. It’s just that they all ended badly.”

Elder Yun’s worries were reasonable. For someone other than himself to carve a new blood vessel into the body of a young child was a miracle that only the legendary Hwa-tuo could do.

What he didn’t know was that Yongwoon had already succeeded in doing so.

The great magic technique that transformed Yongwoon’s body.

He had already mastered the art of creating and readjusting blood vessels using the Heavenly Fortune-Creating-Cheon-Ling-Qi-Blood-Dae-Beop (天運拂作天凌氣血大法).

“Don’t worry.”

Yongwoon touched Hwimok’s acupuncture point. Hwimok fell asleep immediately, and Yongwoon touched Hwimok’s upper abdomen.

‘It’s a good study.’

There are many opportunities to observe the upper dantian. There are few masters of Samhwachwijeong who have penetrated the upper dantian, and even among them, there are only a few who have been able to properly utilize the upper dantian, even Ma Yi has seen so far.

Only those who reached the heavens, like Cheonma and Kwonjon. However, Hwimok was different from them.

The heavenly energy poured down like a waterfall in the upper chamber. The indifference of nature was clearly evident as the heavens expanded the Baihui blood vessel without any thought for the life of the beloved child.

For Hwi-mok, there was no barrier between the life and death gate, the Im-maek and the Dok-maek. Those who received the energy of heaven had blood vessels all over their bodies open like dragon clouds, and they were also refreshing. It was just that they had no internal energy of their own.

If he had tried to build up energy in the lower dantian without training the upper dantian, he would have died. Yongwoon, who had once again examined Hwimok’s body, immediately began ‘treatment.’

The original energy is divided into heaven and earth. When the life energy that bloomed from the earth meets the will of heaven, it immediately becomes life, and those who possess that life immediately have their own true energy.

Vigor, vitality, and betting. The types of energy flowing in the world. Yongun, who had wrapped his palm around Baekhoehyeol, caught the flow of heavenly energy flowing through his hand.

Whoosh! The weather immediately shook. Yongwoon was not a master of the unity of heaven and man, who could freely manipulate the energy of heaven with his own will, and the heavens did not welcome human intervention.

However, Yongwoon did not forcefully grab the energy of the sky. He simply quietly tilted the direction of the energy that had accumulated in Baekhoehyeol toward the Im vein below it.

Even if Cheon-gi is the energy of the sky, it is ultimately an energy that exists within the world. The energy was dynamic, and all things in the world fell downward.

From heaven to earth-

The energy of the weather began to flow into the veins of the heart.

“!!!”

Hwimok’s body shook immediately. Humans cannot support the sky, nor can they contain the sky. As the energy flowed, the heavenly energy that filled the world immediately headed toward Hwimok’s body.

It was only natural that water would flow into a hole.

If I left it like this, it would only take a few breaths for my body to explode.

Yongwoon moved his hand quickly. The hand that had been gently pushing the energy from Baekhoehyeol passed Huimok’s face and down his neck, eventually reaching the Danjung (膻中) point.

The concave area located at the center of the chest and the center of the human body. Just as water flows along the furrows, the energy of the heavens quickly rose to the point of blood.

Yongwoon, who had been gathering energy by blocking the single-point blood for a moment, moved his hand as soon as he saw signs of energy gathering.

Kuung! The puffed-out chest of Hwimok sank again, and in that short moment, the energy that had filled his blood also quickly followed Yongun.

‘It didn’t flow before the break.’

It was a success. Before the break, the heavenly energy flowed and mixed with the true energy, and it was a Uhwadengseon. As the heavenly energy flowed down like a waterfall along the Immaek of the Hwimok without leaking into the heart due to its weight, Yongun quickly took his hand off.

Cold sweat soaked Yongwoon’s face and body. Even if he made a mistake, even just half a breath, Hwimok would die immediately. It was a matter of dealing with the energy of the sky.

Yongwoon’s two index fingers were placed right above Hwimok’s pelvis. At that moment, the quickly moving energy reached the perineum point.

Yongun injected his energy into the transverse acupoint of Hwimok. The child’s acupoint was extremely soft and fragile, and so it could not respond to Yongun’s energy.

A new path is created. The sleeping Whimok’s face contorted.

A new path was opened from the transverse point on both sides of the lower abdomen above the pelvis on both sides to the perineum in the middle. It was a moment, a split second.

Artificially creating new blood vessels in the body was no different from internal injuries.

Originally, it was an act that would cause all the blood vessels to become distorted and the true and false energy to become entangled, damaging the body, but now, what was responding to that new path was not the mindless body of Hwi-mok, but the natural energy within him.

The sky is still indifferent. To it, human anomalies are not anomalies. It is just that a new path has been created, and the heavenly energy flows down through that path.

The meridian connected to the Henggol point is the Foot So-eum nerve, one of the twelve most important meridians in humans and also the meridian that connects to the Yongcheon point.

Following the weather, Yongun’s hand once again touched the foot nerve. As Yongun’s hand pressed lightly, the weather ran through Hwimok’s body even faster, and at the moment when the energy flowing from the crown of his head reached the sole of his foot,

Kuung!

A tremendous amount of energy that could clearly shake the ground flowed out through Hwimok’s feet. When he pierced the Yongcheon point with a needle, blood flowed out from it, but then stopped. It was the blood that was created when he pierced the acupuncture point.

But unlike blood, the spirit continued to flow-

“Phew.”

Hwimok was still asleep. However, his expression was extremely relaxed, as if the pain and the numerous tinnitus that had been bothering his ears had disappeared.

Yongwoon smiled faintly.

“It was a success.”

**

The face of Hwi-mok, who was sleeping soundly with his head on Yong-un’s lap, was extremely peaceful. Mae-hwa-geom-bong and Cheong-un-jin-in were sitting on the rock and quietly looking at it. Elder Yun asked Yong-un.

“What exactly is the condition?”

“I think the word ‘Ban-seon’ is the right word. It is a bottomless dam that holds the energy of heaven. You could also see it as a passage.”

“So now you can’t read fortunes?”

“That’s not true. However, since it doesn’t accumulate in the upper chamber, it won’t display supernatural abilities like before. It’ll just be an ordinary… genius?”

“Genius… Talent? Then maybe the other sects will still be after Mok-i-”

“That won’t happen. I won’t be able to learn martial arts.”

Yongwoon spread his fingers.

“Ogijowon is when you complete a person by uniting your spirit, energy, and spirit, and then contain the five natural elements within your body. From then on, you can use the energy of heaven as a human being, but now Mok-i has surpassed that process and achieved the unity of heaven and man.”

“Has it become a realm beyond the heavens…?”

“It’s only halfway. Is the realm determined by humans? It wasn’t created by heaven to be followed unconditionally. The energy of heaven is too strong, so even if you learn the secret method, you won’t be able to accumulate any strength. Furthermore, since you have one more blood vessel than others, you won’t be able to learn martial arts that are suitable for the body structure of ordinary people.”

‘Of course, if you find a way to utilize the energy flowing through your body, it’s a different story.’

It was completely up to Hwimok. The energy flowing through my body was not my own. Furthermore, that energy was from heaven. There was no way I could control it.

If you could just learn the method… it was literally the realm of the immortal law.

“But since you can still read the sky to some extent, wouldn’t it be better for both of us to protect each other from the Hwasan faction? Even though you may be a little different from others, you’ll probably be able to easily defeat someone like Oehyeon-gyeong.”

When Yongwoon said that, Cheongwoonjin thought for a moment. Seon-gol was still Seon-gol. However, his choice was still to shake his head.

“One day, the Dragon Prince asked me if I would be willing to hand over my child to the Demonic Cult or another evil sect in order to save him.”

A serious tone. Elder Yun spoke calmly.

“I couldn’t answer that question. Furthermore, it was Yong Gongja’s medical skills that saved Mok-i. Hwasan can’t accept Mok-i.”

Yongwoon snickered. As expected, all Taoists had some corner that was completely blocked.

“I was just joking. Didn’t you already take the child to a shaman instead of holding it in your arms? Besides, I’m not in a position to carry the child. I can’t show the child fear forever.”

Elder Yun nodded at Yongun’s words.

“Now that I look at it, I see that his personality isn’t completely different from mine. But I’m going to die…”

He asked suddenly.

“Are you trying to become unmanned?”

Yongwoon nodded without delay.

“If you are a disciple of the devil, then with the level of medical skills you just now, it wouldn’t be long before you are given the nickname of Divine Doctor.”

“I know how meaningless the nickname ‘doctor’ is in this world.”

Firm words. Elder Yun nodded slowly, as if he had felt something. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly took out a card from his bosom and spoke to Yongwoon.

A plaque with a plum blossom design. Not only the painting, but also the plaque had a mysterious and gentle energy. Plum Blossom Sword nodded as if it was something that should be received.

“Come to the Yongbong branch with us, Gyu-rin. You are qualified.”
