The Eunuch Regains His Manhood in the Second Round - Chapter 24



24. Family Harmony Brings Success (家和萬事成)

I closed my mouth as I looked at the Honwon Sword Master.

There is no way someone from 300 years ago could still be alive.

No matter how skilled a master of life and death is, the limit of their lifespan is about 200 years.

According to legend, the Honwon Sword Master became an immortal and descended to the lower world, or he used special techniques and formations during his lifetime to leave part of his thoughts on earth. It must be one of the two.

“There is no need to be so wary. I am not the Honwon Sword Master himself, but merely his remaining thoughts.”

The middle-aged man in black martial arts attire revealed his identity.

I don’t know if immortals exist, but there are no records of them descending to the lower world since the mythological era.

So, realistically speaking, it makes more sense that the Honwon Sword Master in front of me is the remaining thoughts he left behind using special techniques and formations during his lifetime.

In fact, it is common for legendary masters to leave behind their remaining thoughts.

Remaining thoughts capable of autonomous thinking can actively test the qualifications of successors through their own judgment, unlike mechanical devices.

So, the Honwon Sword Master in front of me was the final security measure left by the real Honwon Sword Master during his lifetime, following mechanical devices and formations.

“You are not surprised. Well, perhaps I should be the one surprised. Even though this is the mental world, I did not expect an absolute master who has reached the realm of Sim Sang Mu Do to come here.”

The Honwon Sword Master looked at me and said.

“But your mind is that of an absolute master, while your body and internal energy are still not even at the first-class level. The dissonance between body and mind… And the power of defying the heavens I sense in your soul…”

The Honwon Sword Master’s eyes narrowed.

It was true that he sensed the power of defying the heavens in my soul.

The reincarnation technique I performed in my previous life was the ultimate technique among the Blood Sect’s dark arts.

Since it is a technique that reincarnates into another’s body immediately after death, it naturally contains the profound meaning of defying the heavens.

Although I ended up returning rather than reincarnating, if it is the remaining thoughts left by a master of life and death, they would be able to notice at least that much.

But.

“So what? I am clearly the true disciple of the Gongdong Sect now. Is there a problem?”

I looked at the Honwon Sword Master and said.

I do desire the absolute vitality.

But I was in a foul mood.

He had dug into the wounds of my heart at will, and even though it was an illusion, I had dealt with the Three Wounds and Four Stabs with my own hands. I even used that trashy eunuch martial art that I never wanted to use again.

What meaning does absolute vitality have if obtained in such a disgusting manner?

I do want to obtain absolute vitality, but I do not want to pursue it at the cost of abandoning righteousness.

Or yield the arrangement to the senior brother.

From noble mtl dot com

Although the opponent is a master of life and death, it’s just a lingering thought.

He cannot defeat me in the mental world.

My eyes met those of the Honwon Swordmaster.

His face was middle-aged, but he had the taut skin of a baby.

Along with his muscular body faintly visible under the wide black martial arts uniform.

The Honwon Swordmaster’s body and skin had the ideal alpha male appearance I had longed for.

Is this the body of one who has attained ultimate life?

Such tremendous vitality, no, virility, even into old age. Truly befitting the owner of absolute virility.

Should I bend a little now? Does pride feed you?

Just as I was thinking that.

“No, there isn’t. You’re right. I can feel the lineage of our sect in you. You are definitely a disciple of our sect.”

The Honwon Swordmaster shook his head.

“To use barbarians to control barbarians, yes. To counter the reverse principle, it might be natural to use the reverse principle as well. A descendant who holds both the power of the reverse principle and the martial arts of the celestial way. Hahaha… Interesting.”

He laughed.

I always wondered why they made that ‘hahaha’ sound when reading martial arts novels.

Even those self-proclaimed martial arts masters I met in my past life laughed like that, so it must be some kind of unspoken rule.

Do all old people in the martial arts world laugh like that?

Still, it’s better than the eunuch’s ‘hohoho’ laugh.

Damn perverted eunuchs. Why do they laugh so perversely?

Anyway, to summarize the Honwon Swordmaster’s meaningful words:

To counter the reverse principle, someone like me who possesses the power of the reverse principle is needed.

In the end, it means he will pass on his martial arts to me.

No, maybe it has to be me.

In other words, the sword handle has passed to me.

The corners of my mouth twitched.

It’s a chance to gain absolute virility.

My heart pounded.

“If you understand, quickly pass on the martial arts. Ancestor.”

“Why do you want to gain such virility so much?”

The Honwon Sword Master looked at me and asked.

“Three wives and concubines, and the pleasure of the flesh in a paradise of wine and women? Are you saying you want to use our sect’s ultimate technique, which pursues the unity of the three teachings of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, for such a simple and base purpose of satisfying carnal desires?”

The Honwon Sword Master looked at me and spoke.

At the moment I heard his words.

I was astonishingly calm.

My head cooled down.

Well, as the one who oversaw the trials of the Gate of Trials with residual thoughts, he must have seen what traumas and desires I had.

This was within the expected range.

However.

“It is not an impure purpose.”

I am neither a monkey driven mad by lust nor a s*x demon.

“The union of yin and yang is the principle of nature and part of the Taoist art of the bedroom. The art of the bedroom is also a legitimate method of Taoist practice leading to immortality. I am not a s*x demon swayed by desires. But I cannot be an ascetic who suppresses desires either. The path I pursue is the proper release of desires. To properly release the desires of a practitioner and pursue enlightenment through the harmony of yin and yang. That is my ultimate goal.”

The path I pursue is to capture the hearts of women and send peerless beauties to paradise.

It is the pleasure of the clouds and rain that satisfies both my body and mind and that of my partner.

It is different from the demonic path that seeks only simple physical pleasure and technique like a monkey.

The teachings of this path also align with the Taoist art of the bedroom.

The art of the bedroom is a method of Taoist practice through the harmony of yin and yang achieved by the pleasure of the clouds and rain.

“But isn’t three wives and concubines too many? To achieve the harmony of yin and yang, one wife is enough. Orgies are not the proper release of desires but mere indulgence. That is the way of the demonic path.”

—

Summarizing the various hardships that inevitably come with leading seven peerless beauties into one word: jealousy.

The Honwon Swordmaster is asking if you can handle a harem.

I chuckled at his question.

“Why are you laughing?”

“Because it’s absurd.”

I shook my head at the Honwon Swordmaster’s words.

“If I didn’t have the confidence to handle three wives and four concubines, I wouldn’t have even dreamed of it. To wear the crown, one must bear its weight. To capture the hearts of seven peerless beauties and take responsibility for them, I must first become a great man worthy of such a task. I will become such a man. Then, I will confidently capture their hearts, form a harem with their consent, and enjoy the ultimate pleasure of mutual satisfaction. Naturally, this will lead to a harmonious household and success in all things.”

I looked at the Honwon Swordmaster sincerely and spoke in a serious voice.

If I wasn’t going to take responsibility, I wouldn’t have started in the first place.

To form a harem, one must be qualified.

To capture their hearts and reach the pinnacle of satisfaction with all of them in bed, I must first become a great man, an alpha male.

And I am willing to do so.

To win the hearts of peerless beauties, to form a harem.

And for s*x.

“That’s… theoretically possible.”

“If I wasn’t going to do it, I wouldn’t have mentioned it.”

“Reckless. But I suppose such recklessness is necessary to face the reverse logic.”

The Honwon Swordmaster nodded at my words.

He had nothing more to say.

He looked at me and spoke.

“If you receive my martial arts, you may have to abandon the essence of the martial path you’ve realized over your lifetime. Are you still willing?”

The Honwon Swordmaster asked me.

“I don’t mind.”

“The essence of the martial path is the culmination of a martial artist’s lifetime of realization, the manifestation of a microcosm. Are you saying you don’t mind giving that up?”

He asked me.

I laughed at his words, finding them absurd.

The essence of realization, the manifestation of a microcosm?

Of course, Ilpyeonbingsim is an excellent martial path.

My pure heart, which seeks to achieve the ultimate pleasure through transformation, has become a sacred technique through martial arts.

But in the end, the method of restoring my manhood through transformation failed.

—

—

Therefore, Ilpyeonbingsim is ultimately a failure.

Moreover, isn’t the martial art that forms the basis of Ilpyeonbingsim the ‘eunuch-exclusive martial art’ that I don’t even want to mention by name?

If it were in a past life where I was an eunuch, it might be different, but in this life where I have a perfectly normal body, I have no intention of using trashy martial arts like Gyuhwabojon.

“Not at all. I have no regrets. Rather, I am more interested in achieving ultimate life through the martial arts of the Gongdong sect. For that, the Sim Sang Mu Do I’ve accumulated so far is of no value.”

The state of Hyungyeong, the profound inner strength, and the Sim Sang Mu Do are nothing compared to absolute vitality.

“Kekekeke, the determination to abandon even the martial arts of a lifetime. You’re no ordinary person. Good. You pass.”

Honwon Geomje laughed.

He spread his arms, his black martial arts robe fluttering.

“Then, from now on, I will show you. The ultimate martial art of our sect, which I will pass on to you… Honwonmugukdo!”

As soon as Honwon Geomje finished speaking.

Gooong.

An overwhelming aura rose around him and soared into the sky.

With an incredibly gentle posture, Honwon Geomje crossed his right hand pointing to the sky and his left hand pointing to the ground, drawing a reverse Taiji.

At that moment.

Boom!

With a roar, the heavens and earth literally flipped.

Above my head was the earth, and beneath my feet was the infinitely vast sky.

That wasn’t all.

Water surged from below to above, and the flow of natural energy reversed.

In a world where everything was turned upside down, Honwon Geomje stood alone, upright, and laughed.

“This is Honwonmugukdo. The ultimate martial art of the Gongdong sect, which unfolds the mystery of Yin-Yang inversion in the great universe.”

I looked at Honwon Geomje and the inverted world and smiled back.

An overwhelming vitality that could flip the heavens and earth.

I was right to join the Gongdong sect.
