Episode 343. The magician’s realm is the size of his faith.
That was all the Cheonildojang of the Yakdang knew about Yakushi Nyorai Baek Il-un.
When there were no more new stories, the merchant Yeonggyeol, a long-time shaman, sent the Cheonil Dojang back.
“Namamgung is located in a difficult bend north of Cheonjubong Peak. It will take at least a month to find a person because the area is wide, so what do we do now?”
“Would it take more than a month?”
“It’s wide, but the road is so rough that it’s impossible to do it in a day or two. Masters who practice refinement practice hide and seek to avoid being disturbed. Finding their hiding place won’t be as easy as you think.”
“....”
The serialization was not an easy answer.
Wouldn’t you know in a day or two?
If it would take more than a month, I had to look ahead and move on.
For that to happen, the cooperation of nonpartisans is essential.
This is why people need to eat, sleep, and obtain information in the non-partisan realm.
The Young Gyeol Merchant thought the same.
“If your physical condition is tolerable, how about spending time with the occultists first? Namam Palace takes time to investigate. I think activities in Wudang Mountain will become easier once the direction of the Yeonso-hyeop is decided.”
After thinking for a moment, Yeonjeokha nodded.
If finding people in Namam Palace was such a difficult task, they had to deal with eating and sleeping.
“I’ll do as you say, the long sentence.”
When Yan Zihe agreed, Merchant Yingxia rose from his seat.
“Then let’s go together. Recently, more and more people have come to learn Bangsul, so no one will find Yeonsohyeop strange.”
“Please take care of me.”
“Hehe, tell the occultists later. I’m just guiding them through the Yeonsohyeop.”
“Ah yes.”
Merchant Yeonggyeol and Yeonjeokha left the Shangcheng Palace.
Merchant Yeonggyeol went down the mountain without hesitation, as if he were descending the mountain.
“Are the occultists somewhere else?”
“It’s in the Oryong Palace, the peak on the other side. It will arrive in two o’clock (four hours).”
“Oops! It’s no wonder that only long-skilled people are suffering because of me. You could have someone else guide you.”
Yeon Jeok-ha looked sideways in regret.
It was only natural that a non-partisan faction or a long-time writer would give directions for two rounds.
“no. Even if it’s not, it’s been a long time since I’ve been to the Dragon’s Palace, so it’s time to stop by.”
The young woman said it was okay, but she laughed inwardly.
If the opponent was just Tae Sang-ho of Green Forest, he wouldn’t even step forward.
However, he was a valuable guest from the perspective of the Taomen (道門) because he was a virtuoso master of Taoist qigong.
While going to Wulonggung, the two did not use light tactics.
Don’t you know if something urgent happened?
This is because the use of light martial arts is taboo in the temple where Taoists practice spiritual practice.
***
Ohryonggung.
Upon the visit of the long-time merchant Yeonggyeol, Master Cheonmyeong, the ruler of Oryong Palace, hurriedly came out to meet him.
“Oops! Welcome to the long text. What are you doing without a message?”
“It’s been a while since I came here because I was curious about Dowoo Cheonmyeong’s current situation. By the way, it seems that the front angle has increased?”
The Young Gyeol merchant looked around the Oryong Palace.
There used to be only five monasteries, but now there are eight.
“Yes, last month we rushed to build three more because we didn’t have enough space. There are so many guru and ordinary people who want to learn occult arts. Those three houses were also built with donations.”
He subtly emphasized that the Cheonmyeong Master was not built with non-partisan money.
“okay. Indeed, this is Yeondubi Sohyup. He brought a letter of recommendation from the Sword King Namgung Byeok. I would appreciate it if you would take care of me when I ask you to teach me martial arts.”
“The sword king? It seems that even the four generations felt the need for esoteric techniques. But why did he send Yeon and not Namgung?”
Master of Heaven’s Might glanced at Yeonjeok-ha.
It was because he couldn’t understand why the Sword King didn’t send his family.
Yeonjeokha said with a confused face.
“It was like that at first, but after I got used to it, it was just okay.”
“Hum hum! Originally, there is a separate person in charge of guiding the new disciples. However, Master Jang has a special request, so I will let you know.”
“yes.”
“When you wake up at the beginning of the day (5:00 a.m.), make sure to recite the ‘Taipyeonggyeong’, ‘Jade Emperor’s Sutra’, and ‘Zhuyeokchamdonggye’ at the inn. ”
“omg! Is that a lot?”
“A lot? A few sutras such as ‘Yeomgugyeong(焰口經)’, ‘Douguagyeong(斗科經)’ and ‘Jomangonggwagyeong(早晚功課經)’ are excluded. It is designed to teach you the bare minimum basics. Once you memorize them all, I’ll let you know what to do next. Now, diligently memorize those three sutras.”
“Do I have to memorize it?”
“Did you think it was easy? I’m just telling you to do what you need to do.”
“Ah yes.”
I didn’t insist on getting married.
It is because I really want to learn the same technique as Kunlun Samseon’s ‘Shin Antong’.
“Is it possible to learn ‘Shin-Antong’ just by doing what the guru tells you to do?”
“New eye pain? It looks like you heard the Kunlunpa’s secret technique from somewhere. Our shaman faction doesn’t have a technique called ‘Shin Antong’.”
“yes? no?”
“Instead, I teach a similar ‘spiritual art’. Have you heard of the Cheonan pain of the body, which is said in Buddhism?”
“yes.”
“It’s just like that.”
“Can you see the divine power of Yukjeong Yukgap with that?”
Yeonjeokha tilted her head.
He himself gained the power of the flesh, but when he needed it, he couldn’t see the power of the six spheres.
“The divine power of Yukju Yukgap? If there is such a thing, of course you can see it. It is a technique that allows you to see things that cannot be seen with the naked eye. If you have eyes that can see ghosts, would you understand?”
“omg! Are you a ghost?”
“It’s a must-have technique for occultists to exorcise. To cast out demons, I must see with my own eyes. The Kunlunpa’s ‘Shin’an Tong’ is also a tactic created for exorcism after all.”
“By the way, there is a person who has mastered ‘Yukshintong’, Master. Could it be that he can’t see the divine power of Yukjeong-yuk-gap?”
“It’s a rare, stupid case, but it’s possible. Think about it. Can you say that a person’s martial arts is excellent just because he has a treasured sword in his hand?”
He shook his head excitedly.
“It will be something like that. Even if you have a sword, it’s useless if you don’t know how to use it.”
“How can I use it?”
“Didn’t you tell me? Get up at the beginning of Myoshi and have them recite the ‘Taipyeonggyeong’, ‘Jade Emperor’s Sutra’, and ‘The Master of Chamdonggye’.”
“Is that all you need to do?”
Yeonjeokha looked at Master Cheonmyeong with an astonished face.
I wondered if it would be possible to do something like reciting sutras every morning.
“What do you think the magic method is?”
“A magical ability?”
“No, I asked a very difficult question. How do you think the spells of magicians are manifested?”
“order?”
“Tsk tsk! I knew you would answer like that. It’s just an outward appearance. The manifestation of magic is impossible only with the mysterious abilities of spells.”
Yeonjeokha’s eyes flashed.
Now it seems that what you want comes out.
“Then how does it manifest?”
“trust.”
As he spoke, Master Cheonmyeong pointed at his chest with his index finger.
“yes? Do you believe?”
“Yes. The magician’s status depends on the size of his faith. It doesn’t matter how much you believe. If the realm of a Murim person depends on the training of internal energy, should it be said that the realm of a magician like us is divided by the size of faith?”
“ah!”
An exclamation escaped from the young man’s mouth.
What is the size of your faith?
I’ve never thought of anything like that.
I just knew that the body would get used to it on its own, just like the nine-pointed sword.
“The way to develop that faith is reading sutras. If you memorize it hard, you will have faith and gradually become stronger. Didn’t we talk about ‘body pain’ a while ago? Same thing. Do you think that peak moment when you got ‘physical pain’ will last forever? Thousands of words. If you live with your physical eyes, ‘Cheonan Tong’ will inevitably close. It’s like the treasured sword is trapped inside your body. If you learn the shamanic ‘spiritual art’, you’ll be able to use it freely.”
