Chapter 195

Episode 195 Nasty Seeds (1)

The next morning.

Seoryang, who came to the training ground before dawn and finished praying, took a deep breath.

‘Where should I start?’

Seo-ryang got up lightly, relaxed, and lowered his posture.

Spread your feet wider than your shoulders and point your toes forward. Bend your knees to a right angle, extend both arms forward, and naturally straighten all four fingers except the thumb.

It was a Chamchungong (???) posture commonly practiced by beginners in martial arts, with the back and neck straight and the eyes pointed toward the fingertips.

The advantage of Cham Chun Gong is that it can train the lower body, waist and abdomen, which are the fundamentals of martial arts, and is not restricted by location.

In particular, it is a good practice in another sense for beginners who are learning the Naegongsim method.

It’s easy to feel energy.

It is easy to sink into one’s true self in a posture centered on the dantian, and it is convenient to attribute the abundant external energy to one’s true self. It was the best practice to enter the so-called trance state.

However, Ma Dong-pil, who was watching Seoryang from the side, had doubts in his heart.

‘Why something like Cham Chun Gong?’

Even if you are at the level of Ma Dong-pil or Wi Hong-ryeon, there is no need to spend time on Chamchun-gong.

In the first place, there were few demons practicing Chamchungong. The origin of Cham Chun Gong is Shaolin, so it is a widely known training method, but if you are a magician who has learned magic, there is no need to touch it.

‘You must have an idea.’

Ma Dong-pil could not even dare to guess the state of Seo-ryang. Nevertheless, doing such training must have its own meaning.

His thoughts were exactly correct.

Seolyang’s eyes deepened as he looked at his fingertips.

‘After all, I have to throw it away.’

The principles of magic that I felt while treating internal injuries.

After reflecting on himself while practicing Cham Chun for the first time in a long time, he realized that his creativity and concentration can sometimes be toxic.

‘I have created a new level of martial arts by acquiring various martial arts skills, but from now on, I must delve deep into one path.’

Letting go of familiarity and taking a dip in the sea of discomfort.

I was a little scared and nervous, but at the same time I was looking forward to it.

Wooooow.

Before I knew it, red demonic energy was blooming all over my body.

Seoyang relaxed his stance and took a big step forward.

thud!

As soon as the training hall rang, Seoryang’s training began.

The two feet followed the Demon Emperor’s gait and the arms moved smoothly and freely. At first glance, the circular motion looked like a shaman’s tai chi, but it was much faster than that, giving the feeling that it was somehow more intense.

Paaang!

A single fist is thrown out strongly at the moment when it seems to be gently sweeping the air.

Rumbling.

A soft sound of thunder came from the tip of his fist. The power of the Heavenly Demon has begun.

Seo-ryang’s eyes changed.

Wow!

His movements, which were both soft and fierce at the same time, became infinitely faster and stronger.

Puff puff poop!

The sleeves fluttered, creating a strong wind. The hot wind met the cool dawn air and created a soft haze.

A feast of martial arts that causes wind and clouds. The red magic energy emanating from both arms looked like lightning. Xiliang’s power fist, which had not yet exploded, but was fully loaded with demonic energy, had already passed the five stars and was advancing toward the six stars.

It was incredibly fast progress. The enlightenment gained during the fight with the beast palace lord and the process of treating internal injuries led to the achievement of absolute power.

The growth of a cilantro is like this. Even completely unrelated martial arts achievements can be elevated through insignificant realizations.

“Whew. “It’s refreshing.”

It was a more difficult practice because the energy was dissipated right before the onset. If he had unleashed his power as is, the entire area would have been devastated.

Still, when was the last time you trained properly with demon energy? I felt relieved inside.

Seoliang looked down at the training ground. Ma Dong-pil was looking up at himself with a blank face.

“Dongpil.”

“….”

“Dongpil!”

“omg! Yes yes?!”

“Why are you so distracted?”

“Oh, I’m sorry. Stop without even realizing it…”

Seo-ryang chuckled.

“Is it just a series of surprises?”

“yes. “It’s a level I can’t even imagine.”

Seoryang’s training shocked Ma Dong-pil beyond surprise.

The principle of using internal power, rather than a formula, was shocking. Herbik’s attack was amazing, but the unimaginably complex internal force operation further maximized herbik’s power.

Ma Dong-pil, who broke the wall and ascended to a level that transcends humanity. Upon entering the new world, his eyes were completely different from before, and he was able to look into Seoliang’s martial arts in much more detail than before.

“Leave the surprise and just open the door.”

“yes?”

“It looks like someone I know is coming. “The sound of wheels rolling is strangely familiar.”

What Xu Liang said was true.

A beautiful middle-aged woman came in through the previously opened door.

“Oh, so you knew?”

Xi Liang asked awkwardly.

“Why are you here so early in the morning?”

“I guess you’re not very happy.”

“That can’t be right.”

“Are you sure you’re not happy?”

“Think for yourself. So, what are you doing today?”

“I heard you came back from Yunnan. How can I stay silent? “I came to say hello.”

“At this early hour, which wouldn’t be strange to call it dawn?”

“You know I’m busy. “Otherwise I don’t have time like this.”

“You were good at tinkering before.”

“Are you trying to keep me from having anything to say?”

“Tsk.”

Soyeonsim smiled and lowered her head.

“Congratulations on your return, Prince Three.”

Xu Liang briefly bowed his head.

“thank you. Anyway, the only person who greets me when I return to school is So Wonju.”

“Hoho, are we meant to be?”

Seo-ryang burst out laughing.

“Did you have dinner? If you haven’t, shall we eat together?”

“Oh, it’s okay. “I haven’t been eating breakfast much lately.”

“And then he collapses.”

“There are many people at our school who would be happy if I collapsed. You can’t meet their expectations. By the way…”

So Yeon-sim glanced at Ma Dong-pil.

Ma Dong-pil, who was standing blankly, slightly lowered his head. Since there was someone attending, excessive greetings were prohibited.

There was honest surprise on So Yeon-sim’s face.

“The level of Ma Howie is amazing. “It’s completely different from what I saw before.”

“thank you.”

She couldn’t help but be amazed again.

‘There really aren’t any monsters.’

Seoryang is an undeniable monster, but I never expected that Ma Dong-pil would also show such growth. I vaguely thought that one day I would reach the realm of transcendence, but I never thought it would happen so quickly.

‘Is this the result of aligning life and martial arts as Ma Howie said before?’

Soyeonsim stuck out her tongue inwardly.

‘…A man who was only the third leader of the Protectorate became a supreme expert in just two or three years. In ten years from now, won’t Ma Howie also reach the level of extreme demon?’

Even at the same level, there is a drastic difference in level depending on how much one has practiced. Therefore, Ma Dong-pil was definitely lower than So Yeon-sim, who was also a transcendent expert.

But what about a year later? After two years?

So Yeon-sim could not dare to think that Ma Dong-pil would not be able to surpass her.

“The rice is a bit ok, but is the tea okay?”

“Good. Dongpil, please make me some tea.”

Ma Dong-pil quickly lowered his head and ran toward the kitchen.

Soyeonsim looked around as if wondering.

“Why don’t you order a maid? “Anyway, why can’t I see the maid?”

“The kid is a little sick.”

“Are you sick? “I heard that Confucius himself taught me the Neigongsim method?”

“That’s right.”

I thought Cherry Blossom would wake up in half a day, but surprisingly, Cherry Blossom’s body aches lasted a long time. It seemed like the fatigue that had been building up for so long was triggered by this incident.

“It’s not serious, and it will get better after a few days of rest.”

“How many kids would you like to send?”

“It’s done. “I’m living well on my own.”

“All right.”

After a while, the two people sat down at a table under the stone wall.

Soyeonsim spoke first.

“Rumors have spread throughout the school about the accomplishments you achieved during this trip to Yunnan.”

“Already?”

“yes.”

“Is it true that the great lord above was stumbling around?”

“That can’t be right.”

Although he was a person who was not surprised no matter what he did, surprisingly, Wi Hongryeon was someone who clearly knew how to distinguish between public and private affairs.

“There are more than one person who went through a crisis together with Confucius, right? “Rumors can spread anywhere.”

“Yes, of course.”

“However, there was also one unpleasant rumor.”

“Uncomfortable rumor?”

Soyeonsim cleared her throat for a moment and asked in a quiet voice.

“Confucius.”

“Why are you being so serious all of a sudden?”

“Isn’t it… right?”

“What?”

“….”

“You know that throwing something out without explaining it in detail and seeing the reaction is making the other person feel bad, right?”

“sorry. But it’s such an absurd rumor…”

What kind of rumor is this that makes So Yeon-sim say it’s so absurd?

“So tell me. “What is it?”

Soyeonsim spoke in a shaky voice.

“I heard that the religious leader told the candidates to end the succession fight before the Passunje?”

At that moment, Seo-ryang’s eyes widened.

“How did you know that?”

It is unlikely that Lee Cheon-sang gave the order to deliver it to everyone. There was no need for it in the first place, and it wasn’t my personality to do that.

But how did Soyeonsim know this?

“I heard it through rumors.”

“By rumor?”

Is this going to become a rumor? Doesn’t that make sense?!

“And…”

A trace of embarrassment appeared on So Yeon-sim’s face.

“There was a rumor that the Three Princesses were planning to kill the Seven Princesses as a sacrifice to signal the start of a full-scale succession battle?”

“…?”

Seo-ryang’s face hardened.

“When you say Seven Princesses, do you mean Yeo Min?”

“that’s right.”

“I’m going to kill Yeo-min?”

“There are rumors like that going around. “It was secret, but everyone who would listen heard it.”

Xu Liang frowned.

“Why do I kill him? “I don’t know if it’s Guan Pyeong or Jin Gwan Yong.”

Soyeonsim nodded.

“I think so. “There is no need for the three princesses to care about the seven princesses, and they are not the type to do so.”

“But then there was that rumor?”

“yes. As I said, it was a fairly secret rumor. But…”

“Do rumors spread quickly?”

“yes. I think I was the first to hear about it, but I’m sure the heads of other organizations have heard of it by now. “As time passes, it will reach the ears of everyone on campus.”

“I see.”

Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.

“I have no intention of doing so, and of course I did not spread such rumors. But that doesn’t mean such rumors spread without reason.”

“….”

“Someone leaked it from behind.”

Soyeonsim’s face hardened.

“Do you think he is the archduke?”

“It doesn’t matter who started the rumor, whether it was Jin Guanyong or Guan Ping. “I don’t really want to know.”

“Why?”

“I was going to kill them both anyway. It’s just a matter of when.”

So Yeon-sim felt speechless at such a simple answer.

“But the problem here is.”

Xu Liang’s eyes narrowed.

“I heard that Yeo-min could be harmed.”

I thought that not because of me, but because of someone who encouraged the rumor, Chae Yeo-min could be hurt. Of course, we cannot be sure that there is someone behind the rumor.

After thinking for a moment, Seoryang licked his lips.

“I’ll have to think about it later. Anyway, thank you. Thanks to you, I got some good information.”

“That’s not much information. Besides, to put it bluntly, even if the Seven Princesses die at the hands of the Three Princesses, no one will be able to say anything about it.”

It was a cruel thing to say, but it was true.

It is a battle between the next gods who will lead the next generation of Protestantism. Is there anything more ridiculous than introducing human ways into the battle of gods?

“However, there is a possibility that public opinion will deteriorate significantly.”

“I guess so.”

“What do you plan to do?”

Seolyang leaned back in his chair as if drowsy, his eyes shining.

“I’m going to go have a cup of tea.”

“yes? With whom?”

“There is such a person. He has the amazing ability to convey his thoughts without words using just his eyes. “He has a smart head, too.”

“…A total military?”

Seo-ryang stood up and pointed to the training hall with his thumb.

“How about before that? Let’s say thank you and have a game of force.”
