Chapter 738
Crack!
“Uh?”
Crack!
“Uh?”
Crack! Crack!
“Kuak!”
He bent his neck to the side... No, Chung Myung, with his neck bent to the side, pulled his head as if he couldn’t understand.
“Ughh. This is...”
It felt like he could even hear the voice of Chung Jin in his ears.
-What did I say? Huh? What did I tell you?
“Shut up, noisy bastard!”
‘I will dig your grave up right away!’
Chung Myung gritted his teeth, held his head to support his sore neck, and sighed.
‘This is not working out.’
Creating martial arts wasn’t an easy task.
“Ugh. If it was a simple sword technique like the Seven Sages Sword, I could manage it well here.”
Treating the Seven Sages technique as a simple one would sound shocking to normal people, but it wasn’t that difficult for Chung Myung, who was the former Plum Blossom Sword Saint, known to be second to none in terms of understanding sword skills in Mount Hua.
However, it was difficult even for Chung Myung of this world to change a cultivation technique like the Purple Cloud Divine Arts.
Usually, when modifying such a complex and difficult martial art, the sect leaders and heads of the sect would come together to verify any errors, test it, and then confirm its effects before teaching it to others.
Even after going through that process, there were many cases of people being paralyzed after learning the new arts. Creating safe martial arts was difficult.
However, since he had skipped that long process and began to learn the roughly modified martial arts on his own, it was no wonder that he experienced Qi Deviation.
Crackkk!
“Oh, shit!”
Chung Myung felt his spine bending back and lay down on the ground.
-I thought you would break down entirely after that.
“This bastard?”
‘Do you think you would be safe if I died here? You should hope that I live a long life. No, you all should be praying for that! If you don’t want your heads broken...’
-What now, bastard!
“Uh... except for maybe the sect leader sahyung.”
Chung Myung lay down and sighed.
“Ugh, isn’t this the way?”
If it were anyone else, they would have died ten times already.
Chung Myung had spent several years laying the foundation for the future, so he ended up suffering these side effects.
A building with a weak foundation and poorly planted pillars would collapse even if it slightly tilted, but a building with the strongest pillars and a lot of effort put into its foundation would never collapse from a slight tilt.
After waking up in a new body, Chung Myung had spent several years building his foundation.
Thanks to that, his body was now in a state of perfection that couldn’t be compared to the past. The internal qi flowing within his body was so clean and pure that no trace of dirt could be found in it.
So, this was the limit of the side effects. Still, if a normal person were attempting this, there was a high chance that their cardinal and brachial veins would have been pinched. Their entire body would have bent up horribly, with the person in question puking up blood.
“Ughhhh!”
There was concern in the eyes of Chung Myung.
‘What do I do?’
Right now, thanks to his neatly grown body, he was enduring it, but if he continued, he might really die. Even now, it would be better to just learn the techniques he had used in the past....
-Right, don’t be stubborn and just learn the old ones. I put a lot of thought into making them. How many times have I said this? It is because sahyung cannot do such things. Hehehe.
This brat?
Chung Myung’s eyes shone.
“Fine! Let’s see who wins!”
He got up and began to pull the internal qi.
“If I try everything I can, I will get it done! Why use the brain when the body is what I use best? I trust my damned body!”
If Chung Myung’s sahyung-sajes in his past heard this, they would hold their heads in sorrow. But there was nothing wrong with what he said either.
Crack!
“Ack!”
Crack-crack-crack!
“Ack! Fuck!”
All night long, the sounds of breaking bones and screams continued to emanate from Chung Myung’s room.
It wasn’t a significant concern for everyone living in the White Plum Blossom Hall because they were all asleep, plagued by nightmares due to the loud noises coming through the walls.
“Hmm.”
Hyun Young glanced at the people in front of him with a bit of distrust in his eyes.
Those who were being glanced at avoided Hyun Young’s gaze.
‘What else are we to do?’
“Of course, you need a book to learn the new skills. We have prepared enough to distribute to you.”
“Oh!”
“Ohh!”
There was a lot of expectation in the eyes of the disciples.
The results of Purple Cloud Divine Forest had already been proven. Didn’t the three people in front of them show it with their growth?
Throughout the training, Hyun Young held up a large rock, which was difficult for the disciples to carry, with one hand and demonstrated with an extremely comfortable look.
Of course, this might have been due to the long-standing internal qi of the elders, but even so, it was a strength they couldn’t see before they learned this.
So how much stronger would they become if they learned this? Just imagining it made their hearts race.
“Then where are they?”
“Hmm. Right. That book. It is because of that.”
“Uh?”
Baek Cheon’s eyes narrowed as suspicion began to arise. Hyun Young’s strange smile made him feel uneasy.
“As you know... didn’t we learn it all from Chung Myung?”
“... Uh?”
The moment the name Chung Myung was mentioned, their eyes trembled. They didn’t remember a time when this name came up, and things went fine.
“We know it since we tried it.”
“....”
Those words seemed like a symbol of upcoming misfortune. Has there ever been a time when those words came out of someone’s mouth, and things went smoothly?
“We concluded that you can build a foundation of much stability, and it will be quicker if someone infuses their true qi rather than just trying it out with your clumsy skills.”
“...”
“So, before you learn the rules, let’s first learn from him.”
Ah...
Baek Cheon smiled a lot more happily.
To be able to move true qi meant that a person who had reached a certain state of growth could manipulate the qi of others to open pathways and guide them. The advantage was that the person could use qi more easily while the one infusing it expended a lot of mental energy.
But...
“Excuse me...?”
“Hmm?”
Baek Cheon spoke in a shaky voice.
“I remember... that... as elders received guidance from Chung Myung, you all almost... right. That....”
Instead of Baek Cheon, who was unable to finish, Un Geom said,
“Didn’t seem like humans.”
“Yes. That... I was thinking that....”
Baek Cheon smiled awkwardly and cautiously asked,
“Is it going to be different from that?”
“Hmm.”
“Elder?”
Why were you smiling like that, elder?
Hyun Young grinned. That was all. Even Hyun Jong and Hyun Sang behind him had similar looks.
The sight of these three people smiling with the same expression made the disciples tremble with fear.
“Well... wouldn’t you know it when you experience it?”
“Uh?”
“What does it matter? You’ll learn then?”
Baek Cheon felt lost for words and went silent.
“Hehe, sometimes. Ignorance is the cure...”
Hyun Young rolled up his sleeve and stepped ahead. Hyun Jong and Hyun Sang did the same.
“Who will try it first?”
“...”
“It is fine. All fine. There is no need to worry. We have already properly learned what to do from Chung Myung.”
What? You did? How to hurt people?
Elder?
“We don’t have much time, so don’t waste it. Un Geom, Un Am, and... right, Baek Cheon.”
Baek Cheon firmly raised his hand at Hyun Young’s words.
“What?”
“Samae is the most eager.”
“... come out.”
“Yes.”
The diversion didn’t work. Baek Cheon walked like a cow being taken to a slaughterhouse.
And the three of them smiled.
Even though Chung Myung was away, it was already too late for Mount Hua to go back to its past form.
