Dark and Light Martial Emperor Chapter 712

◈Episode 712. A treasure trove

of enlightenment (2)

Taeeuldan.

Just as Shaolin has Daehwandan, shamans have Jasodan.

In Jongnam, there is a spiritual medicine that represents the sect, and that is Taeeuldan.

Aside from the commonality of condensing medicinal power to the limit, the elixirs boasted by each faction of the Nine Faction and One Bang faction each have different characteristics.

Shaolin’s Daehwandan is extremely powerful, but unlike a Buddhist elixir, its weak properties are very strong. If someone you don’t know eats it, an ordinary person will die instantly because he or she will not be able to overcome the weak power, and even a top-notch expert will suffer from coinage poison if he or she does not have the Neigongsim method to control the energy.

A shaman’s Jasodan is much more stable than Daehwandan because yin and yang are in harmony. However, since its power was comparable to that of the Great Hwandan, if you took it too hastily, it was easy to become weak or suffer from health problems, even if it was not to the point of losing your life.

Moreover, if you do not train the Taoist divine skills, most of your energy will be lost even if you can withstand the weak power. Even if it falls into the hands of an evil person, it is a spiritual altar that cannot increase the power of the evil person.

So what about Jongnam’s Taeeuldan?

Jongnam’s Taeeuldan does not provide as powerful an attack power as Daehwandan or Jasodan.

However, in terms of perfecting the muscles and bones, he was a spiritual master who could be said to be the best in the nine factions. Because Jongnam’s training itself, unlike other Taoism, prioritizes the perfection of the body over internal energy, Yeongdan also has such characteristics.

Yeon Ho-jeong didn’t know much about Taeeuldan. To begin with, he didn’t know much about the spiritual ranks of famous sects.

However, even though it was in the pocket, it was giving off an unusual energy. That alone showed that it wasn’t usually a great item.

“Jangmun-in.”

“You can refuse. I don’t really need it, but I don’t want to force it into my hands. “It’s not because it’s a waste, it’s because I don’t want to make you uncomfortable.”

Sunwoo smiled faintly.

“But still, I hope you will accept it. “This is not just to apologize or because he contributed greatly to this war.”

“….”

“You will continue to wander throughout the central plains and fight with foreign enemies. “I daresay that he will lead a much more passionate life than the leaders of his faction.”

“….”

“I don’t want to discuss the influence of your mentality, skills, etc. “I just knew you were someone who would do great things for our future.”

“Jangmun-in.”

“Prevent another tragedy.”

Sunwoo’s eyes deepened.

“If another clan appears in the same situation as our Jongnam, you must use your strength.”

Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.

“That is natural. And it’s not just me. “Everyone…”

“Of course we all should do that. “Still, I want to tell you this.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes became serious.

Jongnam lost many disciples in this war. The damage cannot be converted into money.

In the future, we will have to raise more disciples, and the money needed to treat the seriously injured will be quite a lot. In the meantime, he said he would give me a spiritual altar that could be considered a treasure.

“What should I do? “Will you accept it?”

Yeon Ho-jeong took control.

“If you say that, how can I refuse? “I will make sure to put it to good use.”

Sunwoo smiled brightly.

“Thank you for accepting my sincerity.”

Sunwoo handed Taeeuldan to Yeon Hojeong.

It was light but also heavy. This Yeongdan was not just a Yeongdan, but a treasure filled with Sunwoo’s frustration, anger, hope, and regret.

Sunwoo turned around.

“Let’s eat. I haven’t eaten anything all day today either. Just in case, I tell you, there is no fatty food in the secular world.”

“great.”

Yeon Ho-jeong followed him.

Sunwoo opened his mouth again without turning his head.

“Yeon algebra.”

“Yes, Jang Mun-in.”

“Thank you.”

It’s not an apology, it’s a gratitude.

“Thanks to you, Jongnam survived. “I will definitely repay this favor in the future.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“Taeeuldan is enough, but if you think it is not enough, please pay it back.”

Sunwoo chuckled.

“He is a strange person.”

* * *

Mukbi greeted Yeon Ho-jeong, who returned to her residence after having a meal with Sun-woo.

“Did you have a good time?”

“uh. I had a delicious meal. “I also received gifts.”

“okay.”

“It’s late at night, why aren’t you sleeping yet?”

Mukbi scratched his head.

“I just can’t sleep. “I’m going to sleep now.”

“okay. “I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Yeon Ho-jeong flopped down in front of the stairs.

There was a look of puzzlement on Mukbi’s face.

“Do not sleep?”

“I have something to think about. “Let’s sleep first.”

“is it so. “Don’t overdo it.”

“I understand.”

Mukbi disappeared from his residence. The guesthouse where she slept was quite far away from here.

Yeon Ho-jeong, who was alone, took out Taeeuldan from her arms.

‘….’

A faint medicinal scent flowed from Taeeuldan wrapped in a gold bag.

It wasn’t harsh or strong. If you put it in your arms, most people wouldn’t be able to smell it.

Yeon Ho-jeong quietly looked down at Taeeuldan and put it back in her arms.

‘I received a great treasure.’

Taeeuldan.

It is not just a spiritual group representing a sect. It was gold stained with the blood and sweat of Sunwoo and Jongnam.

But there was a bigger treasure than that.

‘It was amazing.’

Yeon Ho-jeong thought of Sun-woo’s sword.

‘amazing. It had a different logic from the martial arts I knew.’

It was my first time to officially see Jongnam’s World Sword.

Thirty-six swords in the world. The best swordsmanship of the Jongnam faction.

Balgyeongbeop, rising from the sword, was a much more amazing sword technique than the treading path.

If you look at Geomro alone, I actually didn’t think it was that great. It was exquisite, but if you look for that level of swordsmanship, it was easier to find than you might think.

However, the power within it had a uniqueness that was difficult to find in any martial arts in the world.

The momentum was fierce and brilliant like fire, but the sword power flowing out was like a proud current. It was the peak of a wave of swords that no one could escape once they were swept into it.

‘Hwasan’s plum sword is the pinnacle of sophistication. Rather, I’m used to it.’

Yeonhojeong’s martial arts was a combat technique with an exquisite balance of attack, defense, evasion, and counterattack.

However, since martial arts itself was extremely destructive, it was easier to understand the opposite path, Hwasan’s martial arts. Just by looking at it, you could get a glimpse of how to use the plum sword.

The Heavenly Sword was different. Although the ferocity was similar, there was a softness breathing inside it that was as good as the Taegeukhyegeom of the Shaman faction.

Soft and soft principles come together and become a wave that no one can stop.

It was literally a sword like water. A single drop of water easily scatters, but when it gathers, a huge current sweeps away everything in the world.

‘My martial arts skills are simple. Because it’s simple, it’s fast and strong. Qigong techniques are not like that, but the fighting technique itself is all about wielding it without holding on to logic.’

Sasinmu is different from Taoist martial arts or Buddhism martial arts. It is an extreme practical martial art that thoroughly destroys the opponent without seeking enlightenment.

Yeon Ho-jeong never thought that was a problem. It was the same even after I reached my current level. Because Sasinmu was already perfect in itself.

But at this moment.

The advantages of other types of martial arts, which he had never felt even during the time of the Emperor of Darkness, were shaking Yeon Ho-jeong’s heart.

‘No.’

Yeon Ho-jeong thought again.

‘It’s not just the World Sword.’

The legendary Taoist Heavenly Technique of Myeonggeuk.

By using the divine energy of Dan Sang-jeon, he created a martial art that was close to a martial art.

The strange martial art of losing the rhythm without the opponent being aware of it was enough to be called Shingongjeolhak in itself.

Moreover, the hardness of the magic that creates the absolute defense and attack power.

It is both armor and a sword. The unbreakable wonder of steel raised both sides of the attack and defense to the highest level.

‘I could see it.’

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes became slightly blank.

‘When I fought him, I entered a realm that is difficult to define. It wasn’t just immersion. I went into a world much deeper than that and threatened him.’

Wooooow.

A bright energy bloomed from Yeon Ho-jeong’s hands.

It was not the Four Gods Energy. The pure bright energy, the core of Yeonhojeong’s history, was radiating out.

‘At that time, I was able to see not only his movements but also the core of his attack power.’

Jiiiing.

The sacred energy that had been blooming soon became as hard as steel and colored his entire forearm.

‘This is what it felt like.’

There was no logical explanation. This is because the structure was not organized.

But I was able to follow a similar path just by feeling. He was the one imitating Dohwacheonsingap (導禍天神鉀) with Gwangmyeonggi.

Wow!

The bright light that protected his arm for a moment dissipated with a splashing sound.

I remembered the feeling and used it according to my instincts, but it only lasted for a moment. Since its operation cannot be sustained, it is impossible to use it in actual combat.

‘and.’

Yeon Ho-jeong stretched out his hand into the air.

His fingertips pointed toward a tree far away.

‘Senior Eumje’s cancergongpa was also an outstanding season.’

Wooooow.

The bright energy flowing from the fingertips soon turned into intangible energy.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sank.

He naturally closed his open hand and flicked his middle finger and thumb.

Perfect! Whoa!

When I snap my fingers, a distant tree branch snaps! It broke with a sound.

It is the power of vibration. Unlike the Myeonggeuk’s Daohwacheonshingong, I roughly understood the principle, so I was able to use the dark space technique in my own way, which was similar to but different from the yin system.

‘It’s a great break from school. I also don’t know the structure, but since I know the principle, I can pull it out and use it at a moment’s notice.’

The meeting with Myeong-geuk ended in a life-or-death fight, but they talked with Emperor Eum all day.

She even worked on internal energy to heal her broken body. After reading the unique characteristics of an absolute master whose power enters the body, he was even able to understand the principles of the Arm Gong School.

‘Senior Eumje and the enemy’s martial arts skills. Furthermore, Jongnam’s World Sword.’

Yeon Ho-jeong let out an exclamation without realizing it.

‘There was so much to learn in the world, but for the sake of my own perfection, I neglected even what I could gain due to my overly narrow eyes.’

You have to perfect yourself to understand others.

In that respect, Yeonhojeong’s method was right. But there was no need for that now.

Just like during the time of the Emperor of Darkness, his martial arts path was no longer his own.

The current Yeonhojeong, which is similar to that time but is following a completely different path, has developed from a martial art solely for battle and destruction to a castle-like martial art that seeks to protect everything.

‘You can become stronger.’

Yeon Ho-jeong’s hand gently waved the air.

The unknown world we entered during the fight against the masterpiece.

‘If only I could throw myself into a principle that got derailed at some point.’

Yeon Ho-jeong recalled the moment when he gradually and surely fell into the principles of martial arts. He thought of his own hand, which came close to pulling out Myeonggeuk’s collarbone even though he did not throw it away with all his strength.

Yeon Ho-jeong closed his eyes.

Wooooow.

The Gwangmyeong Shrine let out a soft cry.

Focus and immerse yourself.

Indeed, for the first time in a long time, Yeon Ho-jeong sat in meditation and reflected on himself.

Cheeeeeeeek!

That moment when you completely focus on yourself without any external stimulation.

Gwangmyeong Shindan accelerated recovery by moving through the entire body faster and more smoothly than before.

Three days have passed since Yeon Ho-jeong fell into zazen.

Mukbi came to visit, and So Jeonggwang, who didn’t know where he was, stayed by his side.

Hwang Seok-tae, who finished his work, also stayed by Yeon Ho-jeong from the second day, and Kang Ryang and Ji So-hyeon, who were contacted, also ascended to Jongnam.

And on the fourth day.

Flash!

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes opened.

Mukbi approached with a happy face.

“Are you awake?”

“huh.”

“I stay focused for a long time. “It’s already been four days.”

“I see.”

Yeon Ho-jeong said calmly.

“Let’s get this sorted out. I think it’s time to go.”

“yes.”

“Oh, have some food before that.”
