*Pjjjjkkk!*

The blue aura-like light formed on Seol Youngs fingertips. It was as strong as lightning. It took shape in an instant and moved like a talisman.

It was a technique of using a talisman with only spiritual power, but the absence of paper was a medium.

This was called a spiritual talisman spell.

A technique that required a high level of concentration of spiritual power to produce an explosive force in a short time.

Seo Geoms face twisted at this.

How dare you use such a!

He couldnt even end the shout as the sky suddenly turned black. Dark shadows sprang from the ground.

The voices in the forest.

The talisman that Seol Young had drawn was none other than a summoning one. It was a skill he hadnt used for a long time, but his body remembered it.

A powerful summoning spell was drawn.

And the spirits would have no other choice but to answer this.

All of them were called out, and they formed a circle around him. They surrounded Seol Young, insanely moving around like they were dancing.

You are so far behind in dealing with the ghosts!

The Hwarangs of the Blue Dragon True Troops slaughtered them in an instant.

But there were too many of them.

Their minds were distracted by the sounds that the ghosts were making all around them.

Several of the Hwarangs had always dismissed Seol Young.

However, the power Seol Young used right now wasnt something to be underestimated.

The child who was born with strong spiritual power and grew up with spirits and demons must have trained a lot. Moreover, he had now taken a step further, as if he had trained all this time.

A smirk appeared on Seol Youngs face.

I am busy now.

He sneaked through the gaps. He escaped the siege in a short time.

Will you not stop?!

Seo Geom shouted.

They all chased after him slashing down the summons, but they could never catch up with Seol Young.

Seol Youngs foot technique was unique. It was the technique he learned from observing the spirits.

Seol Young only stopped after he was sure that he was away from the Blue Dragon True Troops.

His head was spinning.

It had been way too long since he used any incantations, and it felt a little strange to use them now.

I will soon get used to this.

It wasnt easy from the start. He knew the road to proving himself would not be smooth, but his personality didnt perceive things easily either, and he never got discouraged by the difficulties that would find him.

Avoid Hwarangs and cut down the evil spirits.

And he walked as he made up his mind.

When he left, many suspicious thoughts lingered in his mind.

Seol Young raised the qi in his body with an irritated heart. When his sword shone blue, everyone was startled and moved away.

A few days passed with nothing to do.

He intended to scare away anything that might be afraid of him. And he would cut down anyone showing signs of a small scam or fraud.

Occasionally, there were spirits that approached him, thinking something interesting had come up, but they were killed right then.

Every place Seol Young passed was clean.

Eventually, he reached Sabolju.The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B11n.

There, Seol Young made sure to buy yellow papers for talismans and other items. Then he went around asking people,

Where did something unusual happen in here? They say blood was pouring down as rain.

Ah, yes.

The village of Jeolgol was the location of the incident that shocked everyone.

There were several large tombs along the path. Seeing the tombs guarded by Stone Tomb Beasts, it seemed like the tombs of some high-ranking or wealthy people.

And it seemed like they were famous enough to get a good piece of land.

The incident of bloody rain in this area would undoubtedly terrify people.

Since when did it start?

It has been over a month.

People knew that Seol Young was a Hwarang, so they rushed to appeal to him.

Please do something. I am afraid I will die. The high-ranking people asked us to be patient, saying the village would not vanish but

Shards of a jar came up with a pile of scales, white scales. There were also slender bones.

It was the corpse of a giant snake.

One that has been rotting for a long time with only bright red eyes remaining clear.

You are the culprit for all of this.

Seol Young took out the yellow paper he brought when leaving the White Tiger Spirit Troops. After collecting the remains and wrapping them up in paper, he returned to the village.

Not even half a day had passed, and yet everyone seemed to know.

Even if you are a Hwarang who knows martial arts, being alone is

It is resolved.

Sorry?

People were surprised.

You fixed it?

Instead of answering, Seol Young slightly raised the paper and showed it. The people were terrified to see scales, bones, and whatnot mixed there.

Oh my! What even is that?!

Imoogi corpse.

Imoogi?

Some shamans seem to have obtained a corpse that was corrupted and couldnt turn into a dragon. They must have put him in the jar and served it, as they considered it to be a deity. And as it gradually gained strength with the sacrifices given, the creepy things must have begun to happen

Seol Young stated what he thought happened.

But the group of shamans got scared as things escalated and hid the jar over there, in that temple site, and ran. And as it already gained enough strength, it summoned the spirits on its own by making it rain.

It was as clear as if the story was written in the palm of his hand. What he saw and heard as a child was coming to life.

If left alone, the number of spirits would have increased and caused trouble for the entire village. This was dealt with on time. Blood will not rain again.

The people looked at him.

Looking back, strangely, the feeling of suffocation they had been feeling had disappeared.

It was the first time since the incidents began.

Even though they did beg for help, they didnt expect it to be done.

This white-robed Hwarang was surely cold and blunt, but he sure got the job done.

Thank you! Thank you very much! We can finally live now!

The villagers bowed to Seol Young one after another, making him feel uncomfortable and step back.

As he left the village, he went back to collect his thoughts.

This wasnt as chaotic as those in the Great Heavenly Pavilion spoke of.

Rather, this was just man-made trouble. It was serious, but once the cause of it was identified, it could be resolved quickly.

I will have to report this to the Governor. This wasnt some disaster

As he continued to walk with such thoughts, there came a bizarre sound from the mountains.

*Woong*

Seol Young stopped walking.

Dark shadows rose from the ground one after another.

Those with horns, with two heads, and long tongues that touched the floor

They were all evil spirits.

And a sharp sound of breathing could be heard from his moutha whistle.

When the seal was lifted, his old habits came alive.

Such a sound would frighten anyone nearby at the moment. It was like a whistling sound in the darkest night that could scare anyone.

But

Despite understanding the meaning of it, they didnt disperse.

Rather, they began to get closer.

The thick cloud of darkness began to spread over the ground, and in the blink of an eye, the number of spirits increased.

Go away!

Seol Young groaned loudly at the spirits gathered, and the blue flame rose.

But what was this?

The spirits didnt seem scared. They held a weird hostility as if

They were aiming for the bones of the imoogi.

Seol Young snorted at this.

Finally out of the darkness.
