Chapter 60

Byeoktaesan was sitting cross-legged on the bed and meditating.

This time, he gained some enlightenment as he burned the spirit of Cheon Chu Shin Ui and Il Chim Gui.

In addition, he also gained quality spiritual power.

After all, even though it was the same doctors, the spirit of the Il Chim Gui and Cheon chu Shin ui was different.

Apparently, until a few days ago, the two men’s spirits were inefficient to burn again.

But yesterday was different.

The spirit of good quality was attached to the spirits.

It seems that it was because they had healed so many people with all their might. However, more precise things needed to be checked over time.

Anyway, the quality and quantity of the spiritual power obtained this time was so good that considerable progress was made in the treatment of Gimaek.

Thanks to this, it seemed that he could finish the treatment faster than he initially expected.

Of course, he would still need a long time.

“It’s a curious thing to be alive with such a body.”

Byeoktaesan muttered quietly as he finished his meditation.

When he first woke up with this body, if he didn’t go to the brothel right away, he might have died the next day.

No, he probably would have.

At that time, the reason that Byeoktaesan was able to go to the brothel and move around was because of the remnants of the Spirit Absorption skill who literally remained in the spirit of Cheonma.

And because it didn’t fit the body, it quickly volatilized.

In other words, it means it was a body that would have died if Cheonma had not taken it over.

‘Maybe he was already dead and that allowed me to take it over.’

Maybe that doesn’t make sense.

Of course, that still leaves some questions.

Anyway, he made his garbage like body barely able to do its job.

Soso played a huge role there.

It was possible because the spiritual power gained through Soso’s spirits solidified the foundation.

“Is there another kid who is similar to her… …?”

He didn’t need much. Just one more person was enough.

That way, the treatment will be much more accelerated.

Byeoktaesan rose from his seat.

Now all he had to do was roughly done. The rest will roll on its own.

Cheon Chu Shin Ui and Il Chim Gui will treat the patients with the determination to burn the soul, and the Hao guild will utilize all of its abilities to investigate the culprit.

If he slipped the information he researched to Homu-ryeon little by little, the surroundings will be organized on their own.

When everything was done, Baekhwaruju will come with the result.

“I guess it wouldn’t be as satisfying as personally taking care of the issue.”

That was the difference from the days of being Cheonma.

He ended up smashing everything himself at the end, but this time he couldn’t.

By the time Byeoktaesan came out, most of it would have been organized, and he still couldn’t exert excessive force quite yet.

If the treatment was delayed because he was being unreasonable, only oneself loses.

“Then… Shall I take a look at the kid’s training?”

Byeoktaesan smiled and left the room.

* * *

There were a total of five people training in the training arena today.

First, there were Soso, Danyoung, and Chaewol, and Cheon Gyeongwan and Yoo Seoyeon were located a little further away from them.

Soso, Danyoung, and Chaewol didn’t even need to give any advice. They were going along the correct path on their own.

Thanks to burning their spirits, it became a good quality, so they trained they developed quickly.

Perhaps when someone else heard that they have only been initiated a little over a month ago, they would be stunned.

Their growth was so fast.

The problem was their inner power.

Their inner power was also rapidly increasing with excellent qualities, but it was clear that their inner power could not grow only with their qualities.

The most important thing to raise inner power, time, was short for them.

Anyway, the three women were like that, but the other two, namely Cheon Gyeong-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon, were a bit different.

The two were blocked by a huge wall.

Originally, they were stuck in a stagnation period, but they were able to get stronger thanks to the real battle training he provided them.

But that was just a temporary measure.

Although they became stronger, they did not get out of the fundamental stagnation period.

When they gained most of what they could get from practical training, they fell into stagnation again.

Byeoktaesan watched the two for a while and said abruptly.

“Are you going to continue that?”

Only two people responded to the words, Cheon Gyeong-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon.

Soso, Danyoung, and Chaewol couldn’t even listen to Byeoktaesan’s words and were concentrating on training.

Cheon Gyeong-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon stopped training and looked at Byeoktaesan. The faces of the two turned red.

They were ashamed. The fact that they were distracted by just one word. No, the fact that they couldn’t even concentrate at all.

“If you’re going waste time, go out and find something else to do. If you look for it, there will be quite a lot of things to do in Homu-ryeon.”

The two bowed their heads.

Even with her open mouth, she had nothing to say. Originally, training should be honest.

Their growth was too steep for a short time because of the real battle training.

It became poison and came back to bite them.

Byeoktaesan looked at the two and stroked his chin.

“Hmm. I know a good way to walk.”

At that, Cheon Gyeong-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon raised their heads and looked at Byeoktaesan.

Their eyes were full of aspiration.

They watched clearly what martial arts Byeoktaesan taught his servants.

At first, they thought it was just plain martial arts. However, there were times when they were surprised to see them practice.

Perhaps even that wasn’t the real face of the martial arts.

Because they were still learning to walk.

It was that much until a while ago. However, after hearing the true identity of the martial arts from Il Chim Gui, there was no choice but to be surprised.

To think it was Biryeongshingong!

It was an ascendancy of ascension that could never be obtained without knowing someone.

They couldn’t believe it was given to the servants as if tossing it to a child.

Anyway, the footsteps that Byeoktaesan, who had such a record, knew couldn’t be ordinary.

So, like this, aspiration, no, desire was bound to burn.

“So this footsteps are particularly good for training. If there is a problem, it is a little difficult and hard to do.”

“I’ll do it!”

Cheon Gyeong-wan answered without hearing any more.

“I will do it too!”

Yoo Seo-yeon also answered.

Byeoktaesan thought about something for a while and then nodded.

“Well, it doesn’t matter, it’s nothing. Good. I’ll teach you. However, once you start, you have to see the end unconditionally.”

“I will.”

“I will do that too.”

“You promise?”

“I swear.”

“I swear, too.”

Byeoktaesan smiled.

“Good. Memorize first. I will inform you very kindly, step by step. You have to be prepared since you have to be initialized by end of today.”

“Thank you!”

The two bowed, talking at the same time as if it was one person speaking.

Gratitude fell in their eyes.

Byeoktaesan smiled meaningfully as he saw it. Will you be able to keep that gaze even after learning it?

* * *

Cheon Chu Shin Ui and Il Chim Gui were treating in a huge manor.

Many of the people living in the manor were poisoned, and the location was wide, so they decided to gather the patients around here and treat them all at once.

So, people were crowded inside the manor.

Cheon Chu Shin Ui and Il Chim Gui continued to devote themselves to diagnosis and treatment.

To help the two, doctors gathered in Homu-ryeon hurriedly joined.

There were 10 people in total, but it was quite useful.

It was impossible to cure the symptoms of those who were poisoned by Dokma by themselves, but it was possible to treat them based on the prescription given by Cheon Chu Shin Ui and Il Chim Gui.

There were many doctors who couldn’t even do that, so it was a big help anyway.

The total number of warriors assigned by Homu-ryeon to escort the Cheon chu-shin ui and the Il Chim Gui was a total of twenty.

Even if there weren’t many, they were the strongest among Homu-ryeon warriors.

For them, they had no choice but to do everything in their power to escort the Cheon Chu Shin Ui and Il Chim Gui.

It was the two doctors who were the most disturbing in the current plan for the culprit.

The warriors did not relax for a moment and watched the surroundings with gleaming eyes.

The time like a storm has passed.

The patients in the manor and the patients who were brought in from the surroundings were cured by Cheon Chu Shin Ui and Il Chim Gui.

“There are so many.”

“But doesn’t it seem easier today than yesterday?”

“True. There is a big difference between being prepared and not.”

Yesterday, two people had to go around for medical treatment, and today it was much more efficient and quicker to treat a person gathering in one place.

The sun had set. But the work was not finished yet.

Ten doctors brought in from Homu-ryeon went to pick up new patients, so they would have to work one to two more hours.

Still, they could relax well until they come.

“It looks like they have no intention of letting us rest still.”

The Cheon Chu Shin Ui who immediately noticed what the words of Il Chim Gui meant, looked at him with a sigh.

“Are you confident?”

The corner of the mouth of Il Chim Gui twisted.

“I am Il Chim Gui, the Il Chim Gui. There is only one thing I worry about.”

“What is that?”

“You.”

“Me?”

“It would be difficult to fight while protecting you.”

“You just think of beating those who barged in. I will survive on my own.”

“Well, I’ll trust you for now.”

As soon as Il Chim Gui finished talking, those wearing black robes and black masks rumbled across the wall of the manor.

The number of black-masked people all around the wall was close to one hundred.

That alone was a huge number, and in addition to that, new black masked people appeared on the wall.

It was less than the ones under the fence, but it still looked like fifty.

It seemed to be to prevent those who ran beyond the fence.

There was a feeling of tension like a thin ice plate in the intestine.

Homu-ryeon warriors stepped forward.

They sprinkled a blade-like aura and looked around the black-masked people.

It was only twenty, but even with more than a hundred enemies in front, they were not at all shrunken.

With their mouths closed, they drew their swords and pointed them.

Among the black-masked people, a man walked out leisurely.

“Would you like to get rid of those scary things? I’m not here to fight, I’m here to talk.”

The masked man talked, looking straight at Il Chim Gui and Cheon chu-shin ui behind the Homu-ryeon warriors.

“I came because I had business with the doctors behind you. Why don’t you two not be afraid and come forward to have a conversation?”

Then Cheon Chu Shin Ui said.

“We just have to hear the dialogue, so just say it there. And wouldn’t you be the ones to have to get rid of the dangerous things behind you?”

At the end of the word, a face flowed in the eyes of the masked man.

“I don’t remember bringing a dangerous item…. Anyway, I can’t help it because you’re scared, let’s just talk out loud there.”

The lightly mixed provocation shook his face, but Cheon Chu Shin ui grabbed his arm tightly and prevented him from being bewildered.

“The black ones behind him, are not ordinary people.”

At the words of Cheon chu shin ui, the eyes of Il Chim Gui slightly widened.

The Il Chim Gui focused his mind and looked at the black-masked people standing along the wall one by one.

When he focused on it, he felt a strange sense of incongruity.

The flow of energy around them was a bit strange.

“What the hell are they? It… It feels like they are sick chickens.”

“Isn’t it half-dead rather than a sick chicken?”

At the words of Cheon chu shin ui, Il Chim Gui nodded greatly.

Certainly, it made much more sense to say that they were half dead. To that extent, the flow of their energy was unstable.

“So, to deal with them properly, you have to stab their weaknesses. Usually, the point where the two energy intersects is the weakness, but honestly, I don’t have the ability to figure it out yet. Is it possible for you brother?”

Il Chim Gui nodded.

“Are you sure that’s a weakness?”

“I’m sure.”

“I’ll believe you.”

As he said so, he took a handful of needles from his chest.

“Let’s buy some time. Please, wait a moment.”

Cheon Chu Shin-ui shouted at the black-masked man after preventing Il Chim Gui who looked like he was ready to send needles flying.

“If you have anything to say, do it! Where did the guy we talked to go?”

“I was just waiting because the two of you seemed to be discussing. If you are going to trust us, I will welcome you with a pair of arms.”

“Why would we trust you? I am not stupid enough to entrust my body to things I don’t even know.”

The black-masked man who heard the words was a little agitated. Seeing his eyes distorted greatly, he seemed to touch something.

“What, so you were the idiot?”

The masked man in black sharpened his teeth.

“Your provocative skill is quite good. But you have no choice. Either die here or follow me quietly.”

“Why did you kill all the people of Black Iron Room?”

“Nothing special. Isn’t it the law of nature that those who did not have the strength to protect their treasures will end up like them?

Cheon Chu Shin Ui’s smiled blood.

“Talk about the law of nature. You dare talk about the law of nature when you made Kangsi?”

The black-masked man poured out a terrifying glare.

“It looks like… Things aren’t going to end well. First of all, it looks like I have to sort out those who interfere.”

As soon as he finished talking, those behind him rushed in.

And Il Chim Gui threw his needles.

Stab Stab Stab Stab!

Dozens of needles were shot in all directions.

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!

More than ten needles flew precisely aiming at the intersection of the energies.

It was truly an acupuncture skill close to a novelty.

However, not all the needles penetrated the targets.

Cling!

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Some swung their swords to block the needles, and some pierced their weaknesses.

Those who were stabbed at the weakness fell down without strength.

“It’s definitely the weak point.”

However, the expression of Il Chim Gui who said so was not very good.

There were too many enemies.

And they were stronger than he thought.

Homu-ryeon warriors swung their swords toward those who stopped the needles.

Cling Cling Cling!

Whenever the sword and the sword collided, the air was scattered in all directions.

Their skills were far greater than they thought.

It was enough to be on the toe with the Homu-ryeon warriors.

In fact, the skill itself was on the side of the Homu-ryeon warriors, but they were pushed in strength and speed.

In the meantime, new masked people crossed the fence and entered.

Even just taking a glance, there seemed to be dozens of people.

The expressions of Il Chim Gui and Cheon Chu Shin Ui rotted.

It just keeps getting worse.
