Episode 30
“From now on, I will lead the way. If you want to live, just pray. “You must not give up or lose consciousness midway.”
After quickly conveying the business, he raised the woman’s upper body.
As she sat with her back facing me, I placed my hand on her famous acupuncture point.
“after.”
Take a deep breath.
I closed my eyes and focused my attention on the woman’s inner self.
All work had to be completed before the woman lost consciousness.
‘It doesn’t work right away.’
The woman’s nervousness was conveyed through the hand on her back.
Because he hadn’t practiced fortune-telling for a long time, it seemed like he was having trouble moving his inner energy as he wanted.
‘I guess so.’
When I examined the woman’s acupuncture points by inhaling my energy, I found that her blood vessels were narrow and stiff.
The power supply was badly shriveled and the operating channel was full of mud.
You probably felt a lot of resistance just by trying to move your inner energy.
‘Of course there will be pain.’
However, I had no doubt that she would overcome many adverse conditions and succeed in moving the bet.
Humans’ desire for survival sometimes causes miracles.
What’s more, didn’t she ultimately overcome Simma in her past life?
‘done.’
As some time passed, a faint energy began to emanate from her dantian.
It was worth watching with patience.
‘Come this way!’
Right now, I don’t have the ability to use advanced techniques such as intra-family damage techniques or interrogation techniques.
However, I could do as much as lead the way and help fortune, just like Dokgo Woo-jin did for me.
‘That’s enough.’
The method of treating sima was simple.
All I had to do was to transmit a complete mind method that was free of toxins, meaning that the defects intentionally introduced by the religious leader were excluded.
Defective simbeop is bound to cause internal injury or simma.
The martial arts practiced by the woman in front of me were also like that.
Master Ma planted poison in five martial arts books.
A poison that is so secret and deadly that even a warrior who has reached a state of ignorance cannot even notice it.
The poison that gradually accumulated in the body without the practitioner’s knowledge would have slowly eaten away the body.
By the time you noticed the strange thing, it was probably already too late.
‘But even a turbid current will eventually become clear if the water continues to flow.’
If toxins have accumulated in your body, you can remove them.
If you continue to use the right mental techniques, you will one day be able to overcome the mental demons and recover your body.
‘All I can do is lead the way. The rest is up to her will.’
The faint energy emanating from the dantian ran through the bloodstream following my guidance.
It was slow at first, but it picked up speed as time went by.
Once, twice, three times.
As the number of encounters with the heavens increased, various reactions occurred in the woman’s body.
My breathing, which had been irregular as if I was calling a snake, became stable and my tremors subsided.
The breath I exhaled was thick with turbid air and sweat was constantly flowing out.
‘I shouldn’t get exhausted.’
In particular, the amount of sweat was unusual.
The woman’s entire body was drenched, as if she had fallen into water.
It made me wonder where on earth this skinny body had this much moisture.
How much time has passed like that?
“.......”
After completing the practice of meditation, the woman collapsed and lay down on the bed.
I asked the old man outside who was just watching, unable to do anything, to bring me a wet towel and some water to drink.
‘The stench is overwhelming.’
The entire room was filled with a foul smell due to sweat mixed with waste products.
The windows were open, but the structure of the building itself was not very good, so ventilation was poor.
‘We’d better change locations.’
Of course, I had no intention of taking the woman with me.
Is there any reason to carry out a needless kidnapping?
All the rest was left to Haomundo.
I corrected the woman’s posture so she could lie down more comfortably, and then untied her clothes without hesitation.
Dokgo Woojin, who was watching from the side, let out a loud cough.
Things got very difficult because the Haomen Daoists were talking nonsense.
What is Dokgo Woojin thinking now?
‘I’m sure you’re not misunderstanding me as a member of the Demonic Cult...?’
Perhaps we would be questioned as to whether the kidnapping of Cheoneumjiche was a self-made play.
In the worst case, he could have been excommunicated.
The profile of Dokgo Woo-jin walking forward with expressionless expression could not have felt so scary.
After thinking about it alone, I opened my mouth with a feeling of confusion.
“Aren’t you asking?”
“What do you mean?”
“What is my relationship with the Demon Cultist? “You must have heard what they said.”
“I said something. “I believe in Yeon Yeon-un, a person I have personally seen, heard, and felt.”
“......yes?”
“Are you by any chance a magician?”
“Absolutely not.”
“Have you ever tried to deceive me with malicious intent?”
“Is that possible?”
“Then what is the problem?”
Laughter naturally flowed out.
Have you ever seen such an upright man?
I don’t often give my heart to others, but once I give my heart to someone, I trust and support them until the end.
That was a man named Dokgo Woojin.
I felt like a fool for complaining to myself.
“I’ll tell you everything someday. “Starting from my birth, what past I’m hiding, and what I want to achieve in the future.”
“Please wait.”
A thought suddenly occurred to me.
Wouldn’t it be okay to tell Dokgo Woojin about returning?
Wouldn’t it be okay to just tell the story as it is without having to go through a lot of trouble piecing it together?
‘Somehow, I feel like this guy would trust me.’
I chuckled and shook my head.
Anyway, isn’t that too much of a leap?
Is there anyone in the world who would believe the story of going back in time?
It was fortunate that I wasn’t treated like a mentally ill person.
‘It doesn’t feel bad though.’
My shoulders, which had been stiff from tension, relaxed.
I crossed the narrow alleys of the slums with light steps.
* * *
Two years have passed.
Days spent learning new martial arts and putting effort into embodying them.
“I guess this is enough.”
“Is that true?”
“okay. The foundation has been completed. “You no longer need my help in your meditation practice.”
“...!”
After a long period of suffering, I was able to receive confirmation from Dokgo Woojin.
The foundation for using the White Thunder Godkong in actual combat has been completed.
I barely suppressed the urge to cheer.
How frustrating has it been so far?
Let’s just say that due to restrictions on the use of internal skills, he was unable to perform even a proper martial arts attack.
‘Summon party!’
You don’t know how frustrating it was for me to carry treasure in my arms but not be able to use it.
The thought of finally being freed from this terrible restriction made me feel like I was flying.
“This is a much faster achievement than I expected. “I’m just asking this just in case, but you probably secretly practiced the White Lightning Demonic Art even when I wasn’t around, right?”
“I’ve never done that.”
I lied without even putting saliva on my mouth.
In order to achieve rapid success, continuous effort must be supported.
Ignoring Dokgo Woojin, who gave him a suspicious look, he took out the wooden box from his pocket.
‘at las!’
I haven’t even opened the lid a few times so far because I’m afraid the spiritual energy might escape.
Everything for this moment.
“Are you planning on absorbing spiritual energy right now?”
“yes.”
Without delay, I opened the wooden box and poured its contents into my mouth.
